CORQUODALE—If Mr. Peat's name, and Mr. Morrison's, are not on the committee, it is an omission of mine, and they will be added (cheers), with the words "and. power to add to their number." [At this juncture of the meeting, one of the persons caused a considerable amount of annoyance, by occasionally interrupting the speakers with his remarks, and it was suggested by Mr. Mlielvie that he should be turned out, to which the other replied, "Oh, that's the man that attempted to murder me, seven years ago" (roars of laughter) ; but, after a beief interval and a short struggle, calmness was to some degree restored, and he was permitted to remain.] Mr. Alderman PARKER wished to say one word. They had asked the Chief Magistrate of the town to preside over them, and he did entreat of them to behave themselves as intelligent members of society. He hoped that such steps would be adopted by the committee, that they would all act together, and not be divided. (Cheers.) Mr. BEAN, of the Albion, seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Mr. BRAKELL proposed the third resolution, which stood as follows :—" That the uniform now submitted be adopted, subject to such alterations as may be decided on by the committee, and approved by the guard. That the entrance fee be 10s. 6d., and the subscription Is. 6d. a-month for working purposes, both payable in advance. That the committee make arrangements to enable members to pay for their uniforms by weekly instalments " —but it was considerably modified—merely asking for the committee to make the necessary arrangements for forming a corps and selecting a suitable uniform, and to report to a future meeting for approval of the suggestion then made.  Mr. PHILLIP seconded the adoption of the resolution, which was carried.  Mr. C. MILLWARD proposed the appointment of Mr. J. Maitland (Mercury) and Mr. Alfred Whitty (Post) as the treasurer and secretary to the committee. Mr. WHITTY (Post) seconded the motion, which was also carried unanimously. • Mr. WM. BROWN, Lieutenant-Colonel of the Ist Lancashire Artillery, then briefly addressed the meeting, expressing the pleasure he felt at taking a part in the movement of the formation of a Press Corps.—He was received with great applause. Mr. THOMAS LEE then proposed " That this meeting tender its best thanks to the officers and men who has so kindly formed the guards of honour on that occasion, including Capts. Robertson and King, of the Ist Lancashire Artillery ; Capt. Tucker, of the 15th Rifles; Lieut. Berry, of the Borough Guard; and Capts. Campbell and Corrie, of the artillery." . Mr. HARMED (in the proposed Press Guard uniform) at the instigation of Mr. Whitty, having doffed the bearskin cap, said: "Being unaccustomed to public speaking," he would briefly second the motion, which was carried amidst much laughter.  On the motion of Mr. Whitty, a vote of thanks was passed to the Mayor, for his kindness in presiding on the occasion.  The Mayor briefly returned thanks, and the meeting ;erminated.  The band of the 4th Company of the 15th Lancashire Volunteer Rifles was in attendance, and played several popular airs in the vestibule of the hall, and marched with their company to the storerooms, after the business had concluded.
