The advantages resulting from the use of Steam vessels are too firmly established to require comment; it is, however, universally admitted that the vessels and machinery hitherto employed are not adapted to distant voyages or tempestuous weather. To obviate the admitted defects in steam navigation, the draughts and models of several patents of great merit in kaval architecture and machinery have been investigated by Gentlemen of science and nautical experience, to whom it has been satisfactorily demonstrated, that by the combined aid of the patents selected and the employ. anent of propelling engines on the best principles, it is confidently anticipated that vessels combining benefits so superior will make the passage from London to Calcutta, by the Cape of Good liopv, (in device of contrary winds and currents) in 50 days, and to the Torts of the West Indies and America in a proportionate time ; and that the Company will, with such important advantages, divide a 'very considerable annual profit, the comparative risk being small. and losses guarded against by the property being insured in London. Applications fur Shares to be made to the Bankers by letters, 'post paid, adelrestcl to the Directors of the British Steam and Patent Navigation Company. Prospectuses may be bad of the Banker:.

THE principles upon which this Company is formed, are such as to afford perfect security to the Assured, who, notwithstanding their exemption from all risk, participate in the profits which are to be appropriated at the close of each successive period of five years. The extended business of the best description which is forming both in the Life and Fue Departments, affords every probability that the Returns to be made will be large, or in other words, that the Premiums to be paid by the 'Assured in a course of years will be mach reduced below even the present tofiderate rates. No entrance money is charged. No charge is made for Fire Poli cies when the sum assured amounts to 1100. Losses from Lightning are made good. Parties by obtaining the settlement of a loss do not thereby cancel tkeir right to participate in the profits. Assurances expiring at Midsummer ought to be renewed within fifteen days from that date, otherwise they become void. Receipts for the payment are now ready for delivery at the Office in town, and at the various Agencies throughout the Kingdom. A. HAMILTON. Secretary.

Sir J. WROTTESLEY wished to ask the l luu.

If he had not, it appeared to him that he ought to have taken that course before he presented a Petition calculated to do considerable injury to the parties whom it accused. Mr. EIUMR had not thought it necessary to apply. to this Bank ing -house, because he meant to treat the question as referable to all Country Winks. Mr. T. WILSON said, that unless the Hon.
