curred. His object was to do the least possible violence
to the feelings of those accu-ed, while, at the same
time, the public should be protected. At the sug-

so to him. He thought the society was one of useful-

instruction to the destitute inhabitants of this large town.

to incorporate it with the Town Mission ? The Rev.

properly constructed, and its proceedings admirably
arranged. There was so strict a surveillance erercised

THE ANNUAL IMPORTANT CHRISTMAS
MEETING.

BY AUTHORITY

Pursuant to public notice, a most respectable meeting
of the principal gentlemen, merchants, members of the
Corporation, and residents of Liverpool, was held to ap-
point fit and proper persons for supplying the public with
Christmas fare at the coming festival ; and, amongst other
things,
It was unanimously resolved,—" That it is the opinion
of this meeting that FERNY BROTHERS have, from their
past enterprise in celebrating festivals, entitled themselves
to our most particular notice, and that we do accept their
tender for supplying the people of Liverpool with Christ-
mas and Twelfth-night Cakes; and this meeting is further
of opinion, that the Sample Christmas Cake, at ls. each,
and the Christmas Bun-loaf, at 7d. per lb., are undoubt-
edly of better materials and superior in every respect to
what have been heretofore submitted for the consideration
of former similar meetings."
Feeney Brothers, highly complimented by their ap-
pointment, beg to return thanks, and to assure the public
that neither trouble nor expense shall be spared to make
their Christmas Cakes
" A lasting monument to their name."
There will be two descriptions (the same as submitted for
the approval of the Christmas Meeting). The rich
Christmas Tea Cakes, at 6d., Is., ls. 6d., 25., and
2s. 6d., are particularly recommended, as being suitable
for large or small families. The Christmas Bun-loaf, at
id. per lb., will be as good as was ever sold before for 10d.
or is. With regard to the quantity to be made, it will be a
curiosity ; and, as Christmas-day will be on Monday,
Saturday must be considered the principal day of sale—
nevertheless, the Establishment will be open on
Christmas-day.

We beg to refer our readers to the advertisement in
another column of the annual meeting of tradesmen's as-
sistants. It is high time that some effectual means were
resorted to to facilitate an object that must be of so much
benefit to so aumerous a class, without injury on any.
