The note of an " Old Subscriber" has been forwarded to the

of effecting the object of the writer.
In the review of the Sermons of the Rev. J. H. Stewart in
Friday's S2ANDARD, the word " proposal" should have
been " prospect," and the word " age" was substituted in
the last line bat one for " all."
The price of the tickets at the dinner on St. David's Day
was omitted, through a mistake of the printer, in the ad-
vertisement in the Standard on Tuesday. It is rectified
to-day.

We understand, that the committee for conducting the cele-
bration of St. David's Dav,in London, have postponed the
festivities usually observed until the 2d March, in conse-
quence of the anniversary of the patron saint falling on Ash
Wednesday. It would afford us much pleasure to see the
directors of the steeple chase following the example.

We have received a letter from a correspondent near Holy-

'sent session, because they inferred stationed at Rhyl, in addition to that placed at the Point
at some future pe- of Ayr. He states that some casualty occurs during every
'len from ht severe storm on the coast between Prestalyn and Rhyl,
yto t' . and that on these occasions the Point of Ayr life-boat is of
the c little avail, as it has to be conveyed by waggon to Rhyl, (a
to fold out false I distance of four miles,) and arrives, almost always too
r agreed to, cue debate would late, to be of any service.

We are informed, that, whilst the assistant Poor-law Corn- I
missioner (who visited us on Tuesday) stated that the
Workhouse was conducted as well as circumstances would
admit, he, at the same time, recommended the erection of
an entirely new building; so that we shall now reap the
bitter fruits of all the unnecessary hubbub which has been
raised about the management of the present establishment.
We are assured, en very competent authority, that our
stipendiary magistrate does not contribute to tne funds of
the parish, as he at present resides out of the district.
A correspondent (" A. B.") complains, and, we think, very
justly, of the annoyance experienced by the gentlemen on
'Change by the number of boys frequenting the anon for
the purpose of whipping tops, &c., ind by the importmaity
of beggars, who, as our correspondent nays, hawk at this
place, a great advantage, as their customers cannot move
away as they do-in the street. "A. B." ikleo Worms las,
that, some time since, a man was employed foe Qs Impose

Our correspondent's letter should have appeared, as it is
effectively written, but, we fear, the compositnrs would not
have been able to decypher it.

FRIDAY ,11101114ING, FEBRUARY 17, 1843

By an announcement in the Manchester Guardian,
we perceive that the League is forthwith to remove
the scene of its operations from Manchester to the
metropolis. A house is to be takes in the neighbour-
hood of Westminster—the hospital is Broad Sanctuary
would be a* appropriate building—which, besides fur-
nishing the gentlemen of " the council," and the various
deputations from the provinces who are expected to
attend and aid in eating and drinking a portion of the
fifty-thousand-pound fund, with committee-rooms,
offices, &c., for the transaction of their weighty affairs,
will serve at the same time all the purposes of a club-
house. From this establishment will issue the various
proclamations, pamphlets, handbills, resolutions, and
other paper pellets with which the Houses of Lords
and Commons are to be bombarded ; here will be
plotted the various parliamentary manoeuvres, with
which the proceedings of government and the business
of the country are to be obstructed ; here itinerant agi-
tators are to be crammed with sedition, and radical
lords and commons, cotton lords, and ministers of ail
denominations, are to be crammed with turtle, port,
bottled stout, or gin twist, according to their various
likings; and here—but we must pause : for in truth
we know not, and posterity only can know, half the
astounding things to be here enacted.

One thing, however, which is to occur in this loca-

lity, we learn, for the first time, on the authority of
our Manchester contemporary ; and the informatior
has largely increased our inability to guess at the pos•
sible future performances of the gentlemen in ques•
tion. The inhabitants of Liverpool—the merchants

brokers, shipowners, tradesmen, and working people
of the " good old town"—are to be represented at this
resort of conspirators by no other personage than—

derately, that enlightened and excellent individual has
