TO CORRESPONDENTS

We are requested to state that Mr. Richards, the pawn-
broker, whose name was mentioned in connection with a
case at the police-court, is not Mr. George Richards of
London-road.
O fr correspondent who signs himself " A Conservative,"
and vet recommends to us a candidate for Liverpool who—
he says—is " an advocate for a total repeal of the corn
laws," had certainly never read the STANDARD, or lie
would not have troubled us with such a recommendation.
" A Young Enquirer" will find, by referring to our publica-
cation of last Friday, that we have already given a copy of
the form of prayer to which he alludes. We cannot point
out what there is in it to which a conscientious Christian
ought to object ; and our correspondent must bear in mind
that the objection on the part of Roman Catholics was
made before any particular form was fixed upon, and is,
therefore, not an objection to the prayer itself, but to pray-
ing, with Protestants, at all.
We are requested to contradict a paragraph in the Mercury
and Chronicle, that Mr. Ilerclman's son had found a gold
seal and chain, and applied the reward (for restoring it to
the owner) for the purposes of the Anti-Corn-Law Bazaar.
Nothing of the kind has taken place.

TO ADVERTISERS

With a view of affording additional advertising facili-

ties to a class upon whom our present scale presses
rather heavily, we have been induced to make an

alteration in our charge upon all advertisements
which relate to Situations for Clerks or Household
Servants, Houses to Let, Apartments, and other
subjects which come under the head of " Wants.'
In future we shall insert all advertisements of this
description, not exceeding FOUR LINES, for THREE
SHILLINGS each ; and we need scarcely impress
upon the attention of advertisers that the well-known
respectable circulation of the LIVERPOOL STAN
DARD at all times insures valuable notice being
drawn to their advertisements.
