By HENRY PHILLIPS, Author of " The Pomarium Britannicum, or History of Fruits known in Great Britain." In this Work, the object of the Author has been to render the knowledge of blautts entertaining and useful, not only to Bota nists, but to those who have hitherto deemed it a difficult and uninteresting science. He has endeavoured to ascertain of what Countries the Vegetables low cultivated are natives, the earliest account of their cultivation, and how far they have improved by attention, or degenerated by neglect ; also the various uses made of them by the Ancients, as well as the Moderns, of dif ferent Countries.

CAPITALS AT SMALL RISK. FOR PRESERVING THE TEETH AND GUMS. THE VEGETABLE TOOTH-POWDER has so long been, in general use that it is unnecessary to offer any further recommendation of it. Composed of Vegetables, without the admixture of any mineral or pernicious i -7redient whatever, it is free from the usual objection against the use of other Den tifrices. Its detersive power is just sufficient to annihilate those destructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the interstices of the Teeth, healing injuries in the former, and promoting a new enamel, where it has been injured or corroded, on the latter. It likewise imparts a firmness and healthy redness to the Gums, and if used regularly, will preserve the Teeth in a sound state to old age. Sold in boxes, at its. 9d. by Butlers, Chemists, No. 4,.

A Quarterly General Court of Proprietors of East I India Stock was yesterday held at the Company's House, in Leadenhall-street, for the purpose of de claring a dividend on the Company's capital stock for the half-year commencing the sth of January last and ending on the sth of July next ; which was made special, in order to take into consideration a Lill now pending in Parliament, for consolidating the Acts relative to the East India Private Trade, and also for deciding on the propriety of repealing that part of the Act of 1813, which restricts vessels of less than MO- tons burthen from trading to'the Company's possessions in the East. On the motion of the Chairman (J. PATTISON, Esq.), the Court agreed to the Resolution of the Court of Directors, declaring a dividend of five and a quarter per cent. on the Company's capital stock for the half year, commencing the sth of January list, and ending on the sth of July next. he CHAIRMAN then stated, that the Court was assembled fur the reconsideration of the Bill now pending • in Parliament for consolidating the East India Private Trade Acts. Some conversation took place, and the following Resolutions were ultimately adopted: Resolved, That the existing limitation as to the size of vessels employed in the East India Trade is a part of the compact with the East India Company, to which the faith of Parliament is pledged. That this Court cannot consent to the relinquishment of this part of the compact, unless reciprocal concessions are obtained by the restoration of East India-built ships to the right of full British registry, and by the admission of sugars from British India for home consumption on equal terms with sugars pro duced in ether dependencies of the British Empire. • That this Court are induced to adopt these Resolutions, not merely on commercial grounds as affecting the People of the United Kingdom, but on behalf of one hundred millions of our fellow-subjects in India, whose rights and interests are iuvolved therein, and which it is the bounden duty of the East India Company to protect.

MARRIAGE ACT. On the motion of Lord ELLENBOROUGII, Ow Order of the Day having been read, and the House having resolved itself into a Committee, The Archbishop of CANTERBURY rose to state the objections which he had to the present Bill. He objected to it because it was silent respecting the prevention of clandestine marriages. He conceived that every possible difficulty should be thrown in the way of improper marriages, but that marriages once made ought nut to be dissolved—(Hear, hear, hear, from all parts of the House). This ought to be the object of the Bill, but it had no such object. He en tertained a higher opinion of the nature and sanctity of the marriage contract than perhaps generally pre vailed. He had heard it called in that House a civil contract ; so it was ; but it was a civil contract under the sanction of a Religious Statute. The place, the mode, the words in which it was solemnized, all ne cessary to the completion of the marriage contract, made it a religious ceremony; for it was performed in the House of GOD, solemnized by the Minister of that House, and sanctified by prayer and benediction. The Bill should have contained a clause to prevent improper marriages. It had none such, and the clause now under consideration of the House, admitting as it did, that marriages were voidable, would only leave the par ties doubtful whether they lived in a state of matrimony or in one of concubinage, and whether the children that played round a virtuous mother were legitimate or bastard:. Some modifications of that clause were, he knew, to be proposed ; but as none could induce him to admit the principle that mar riages once solemnized could lie nullified, he . should oppose both the clause and the Amendment—(llear). Lord ELLENBOROUGH agreed with every word which had fallen from. the Right Reverend Prelate. Understaniing his opinion, and that of the Reverend Prelates on the Bench to be, that marriages once solemnized were indissoluble, nothing could induce him .to consent even to a modification of the clause before their Lordships. He understood that a Noble and Learned Lord (Lord Redesdale) had prepared some clauses to amend . other parts of the Bill, and he [P er•. SrN'r•, - -pr Nien should delay what he hid to propose, in order that the Noble and Learned Lord 'might first introduce his clauses. Under these circumstances, as those clauses would be new, it might be advisabir post pone their consideration, and as soon as the clause had been negatived, to proceed with that which gave a retrospective effect to the Bill. The ARCH tiISHOP of YORK viewed the case entirely in the same light as his Right Rev. Brother. —He considered tl e contract executed at the altar a sacred ordirrafi..n,, which ought to be indissoluble. The Earl of LIVERPOOL aged With the Right Rev. Prelates, that the true principle was that which made marriages, once solemnized, indi s soluble. If, however, he codid not obtain that, he 'hould be con tent to have the nullage confined within the shortest • time possible, though he should far prefer the former. As his Noble and Learned Friend • had been at the trouble of preparing his clauses, he thought they had better:be read and then printed, and the Bill be re- - committed on another dab when they might be ems. mined. As the retrospective clause might form part of another Bill, he also thought it would be better to see what were to be the provisions of the present, before proceeding to that part of the subject. Lord ELLENBOROUGH understood from the Noble and Learned Lord that his'clau,es were not in a state to be printed. He might, however, give their substance to the House. The LORD CHANCELLOR admitted that the great object of the law should be to enable parties to know, atter the marriage ceremony, whether they were really man and wife. He considered that the first clause, which had been repealed last night, was still open to consideratiOn. For if the other clauses of . this bill,which was ten times worse than the exist ing law, were allowed to pass, it might be necessary to have once more recourse to the principle con tained in the first. His heart and mind went to the , adoption of the proposition, that the character of man and wife being once established, should then be indissoluble. Lord REDESDALE then stated that the elauses which he had prepared had been originally drawn up in 1812. They related chiefly to the means of pre venting the abuse of marriage licenses, which were sometimes improperly granted by Surrogates, on ac count of the fees, without proper inquiry. His Lord ship then read his clauses,which tended to make per sons obtaining licenses by perjury liable to be trans ported, and those who issued them improperly, to be tried for a misdemeanour. Conceiving also that the consent of parents or guardians should be 'given in a more solemn manner than it was the practice to do, one of the Noble and Learned Lord's clauses re quired that their consent should be signified in writing, signed by the parties themselves, and attested by two or more witnesses, who should also sign their names, and that no license should he granted unless such an authenticated consent should be produCed. Lard ELLENBOROUGH suggested that as the clause had. been prepared some years ago, and did not perfectly apply to the present Bill, and as it was impossible to follow them thrr,ugli all their details, unless they were printed, lie trusted the House would allow the question to be put on the clause now before their Lordships, and having done that, would proceed with the retrospective clause. The LORD CHANCELLOR stated, that if the proposition of proceeding with the retrospective clause were pressed, lie would divide the House on the subject. The Earl of HARROWBY objected to the mea sure, because by it all marriages in which the consent of parents or guardians might be wanting, would in future be made by banns, which would defeat the object of the Legislature, unless some alterations should be effected iii the system of banns itself. • The question was then put on the second clause, which wade marriage voidable, and it was unani mously negatived. The LORD CHANCELLOR then renewed his ob jection to proceeding with the retrospective clause. Lord ELLENBOROUGH thought there could be no better opportunity for going on with that clause than the present, after the House had decided last night that marriages without consent should be no longer null, and had just declared that they were no longer voidable. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that the clause which had just been negatived was the most absurd that had ever been introduced into any measure ; but contended that the same absurdity attached to every proposal respecting banns in every part of the mean sure. He would not agree to see the Bill frittered down to what it was never Ineant to be, a mere Bill to make existing marriages good, till he had been told what was to be substituted to the provisions of the present law. Lord HOLLAND conceived that the Noble and Learned Lord . did not object to the retrospective clause, but to the order in which,it was to be taken into consideration. That Noble and Learned Lord ought, however, to recollect that any other cla'uses or provisoes might be introduced after, as well as before that clause: Lord REDESDALE ntrd• the necessity of ap proaching' such a clause with, the greatest care and attention, and conceived that it ought to be the last taken into consideration. The Earl of CA ItNARVON did not see why the regular order of the clauses should be disturbed. All those of the Noble and Learned Lord related to pe nalties for granting licenses improperly in future, and could not possibly apply to the manner of proceeding with respect to marriages which were already con tracted. He disapproved of the disposition shewn to postpone so important a question. Their Lordships bad been told.last night to adjourn for no other rea !' son than because it was tensa'clock : had it been an Irish coitstable Bill, of any measure of his Majesty's Governnierit, 'they should never have beard of its being ten o'clock. • krrd ELLENBOROUGH said, that for the last 1 ' 4 11111
