Established Ins. THE objects of this Institution are Three-fold :—To supply the Nobility and Gentry with Efficient Somata of Good Character, in every Department. Male and Female. To establlsh a Mutual Benefit Insurance, as a guarantee to Servants against the contingencies of Sickness and Old Age ; and To appropriate Rewards to Servants, whose good conduct and loss continuance hi their places entitle them to that consideration. The Terms are Ten Guineas as a Life Donation, which entitles the Donor to be supplied with any number of Servants that may be re quired for his own family, and the right of recommending Servants to be put on the Books of the Institution, and provided with places of service free of ezpence ,• it will also give the right of voting (as may hereafter be agreed) in the dbtribution of Rewards to merito rious Servants. An Annual Subscripdon of one Guinea entitles the Subscriber to be supplied with any number of Servants that may be required for his own family, and will also give the right of voting in the public affairs of the Establishment ; but it does not give the right of recommending Servants to the gratuitous service of the Institution. -- - - - Prospectuses, and all further :particulars, may be bad on application either personally, or in answer to the favor of enquirers, (post- paid.) LONDON MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT. Fa NURSES and ATTENDANTS on the SICK and INSANE, REMOVED from 52, GREEK STREET, To 116, GREAT RUSSELL STREET, BLOOMSBURY. Superintending Surgeon—Mr. ELSE, Edward-street, Portman-square. THE object of this Establishment is to provide families with competent and experienced Nurses, to attend either in cases of Sickness, or upon the Insane. Monthly Nurses and Wet Nurses are also recommended, and lists kept of respectable persons who are desirous of receiving Children to Nurse at their own habit.. dons, and also of individuals offering private accommodation to Inva lids and Lunatics. As this Institution has the honour to be patronized by gentlemen of •he highest eminence in the profession, the utmost pains are employed to render it an Establishment worthy of public support. Rigid investigation of the character and qualifications of every ap plicant for recommendation, and of the suitableness of every place, which may from time to time be represented in its Books, for the re covery of ileitis, constitute its distinguishing features, and afford se curity to the public an these points, which is not attainable by private means, except with much delay and inconvenience. The Institution being principally supported by the Annual Subscrip -ion of Medical Men, families requiring any of the above de,cription of attendants. are requested to make application through their own Surgeon, (if a Subscriber) otherwise Five Shillings will be required, for each Nurse provided by the Institution. Nurses requiring the recommendation of this Establishment, must either produce the Letter of a Subscriber, or deposit Five Shillings, which will entitle them to the like recommendation. Further particulars may be obtained, either by personal application at the Institution, or in answer to the favor of a Letter, (post paid) addressed to Mr. or Mrs. Adams, by whom constant attendance is given, and a Nurse of any description provt&d at the shortest notice.

FIFE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD.—" There Is a newly-invented P.tent Recumbent Chair, by Mr. DAWS. of 17, Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, London, which it is but justice to a most ingenious man, to introduce to the particular notice of our readers. The King, we hear, has them, and certainly the in firm, the sedentary, and Ladies whose temporary burthen may dis pose them to a little additional repose, base never before lounged on a cleverer piece of workmanship ; it is handsome and compact, and the contrivance Is so simple, that the required position is attained by the slightest movements possible."—Examiner. " Possessing these advantage', it is not comparatively dearer than a common easy chair."—Times. The chair alluded to will form near 20 positions. The principle and name were the invention of R. Daws, the patentee, and such is the high apnrobation and patronage he has gratefully to acknowledge, and so well is the perfection of it attested and approved, that where an easy chair or couch is desirable or necessary, it will take precedence as a much more comfortable and elegant supply for both. There are many imitations which are called improved recumbent chairs, but R. Days 1... n have no need to say they are deceptions or dangerous. since he has for three years part, and still continues to offer 1.300 for the production of the kind which a majority of competent judges will pronounce more rttect, and for which his signature may be had on application. Some are admirably portable. One shall be sent for inspection by favour of a reference, and payment of expencca or at the rate of 10s. per 100 miles; he warrants his principle seven yeats. TO THE AFFLICTED WITH RUPTURE. HWRIGHT, Self-Adjusting Tr u ss, an d Sur • gical Instrument Maker, 32, London-Road, Southwark, Begs leave to announce to the Publie and Medical Gentlemen, that he manufactures Trusses upon an Improved Principle, for those af flicted with Hernia. It is difficult to explain the nature with which some Ruptures are kept from descending, and very frequently to almost bid defiance to every kind of Truss to retain the Rupture. H. W. flatters himself, from the number of years' experience, to have a competent knowledge in securing the most o►stinate Cases of Ruptures with which persons have been afflicted a number of years. H. W. manufactures a variety of Trusses to the construction of the Body, and has never had any Case of Hernia without being able to reduce it to its relative situation, however laborious and trying the oc cupation of the person so afflicted. N.B. Manufactures the Improved Domestic Instrument, by which Costiveness may be instantly removed, and Its dangerous consequences prevented, by the application of Warm Water only : it is quite simple in its construction, and also portable.

They operate principally as a deobstruent and purgative ; they promote a proper action of the liver in the secretion of bile, or correct it when in a vitiated state. Obstructions of the stomach and bowels are gradually removed; and by giving tone to the billary ducts and strength to the system, they afford relief to those who suffer from nervous attacks, sick head-ache, giddineu, Indigestion, and gouty affection.

METROPOLITAN CONVEYANCING, CHANCERY, PAR.' LIAMENTARY, AND COMMON LAW OFFICE, 41, ST AMFORD-STREET, LONDON. MANY Merchants, Tradesmen, and others, having sus twined very considerable loss in allowing the contraction of Debts on Credit, to recover which, by the usual process of law, they am exposed to great risk and expense, to the well-known prejudice of mer cantile and other transanctions—THOMAS TOOKE, Solicitor, of 41, Stamford.street, begs to announce that he has been requested by many of his Clients and Friends to limit one part of his practice to the recovery of Small Debts exclusively. In adopting the suggestion, Mr. TOOKE begs to add, that he put. poses reviving the practice of County Courts by Writ of Justices, under which Debts to any amount may be recovered, and other causes of action tried thereby : and it is worthy of remark, that the Writ of Justifies may be directed to the Sheriff of any English County or City. With reference to the expense attending the summary and effective proceeding by Writ of Justifies, It is worthy of remark. also, that under no ordinary circumstance can the same exceed EIGHT POUNDS, and the plaintiff can rely upon a final decision of his suit within the space of a few weeks at that comparatively trifling risk and expense. In order therefore to bring into general usage, and to establish so useful a branch of practice, Mr. TOOKE solicits the pa. tronage of the public, that the tendercy may be that of affording to the honest, but unfortunate Defendant, use weans of arranging with his Creditors, and to the latter a guarantee against the great risk and ex. pense attending the Institution of Suits in the Superior Courts, the effect of which, has in too many instances proved ruinous to both parties. . _ .

(Dividends, Ike. on Monday.) IMPORTANT AND CURIOUS INTELLIGENCE FROM THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS. We have this day received a file of the Singapore Chronicle, of a recent date, from wbich we make the following interest ing extracts :—" We have been favored by the free-trader, Sophia, with some interesting documents, originally printed at the Mission Presses of Tahiti, (more commonly but erroneously known by the name of Otabeite,) and the Sand wich Islands. The documents respecting the latter islands sufficiently demonstrate the great interest the government of the United States of America take in them, which we ought not to be surprized at, as their citizens command, almost entirely, the extensive trade carried on there. The influence over the minds of the natives by the Missionaries, is great; and from their knowledge of the language, all com outmications with tile Government of those islands, are earned on through them, whether political or other wise. The English, having no Missionaries now, on those islands,* all the communications of the American govern ment, with that of the Sandwich Islands, whether respect ing treaties, or otherwise, must therefore be carried on by trties naturally favorable only to American interests.— he neglect of the British government, in not sending men of-war to visit the Group, and the attention of the govern ment of the United States, in sending vessels of war, fre quently, influence the minds (ever variable), of the native government, in favour of those from whom they receive the greatest attention, and presents. The Americans have lau dably persevered in their intercourse, and enjoy all its com e mercial advantages, which we have neglected ; and they have, ' and no doubt, will still continue to enjoy the benefits result ing from our valuable discoveries. These islands certainly require the attention of the British government as they pos sess an extensive and still increasing trade, as well as having an importance from their geographical position." THE VISIT OF THE SHIP OF WAR VINCENNES TO THE SANDWICH ISLANDS. The Ship of War Vincennes, Capt. Finch, arrived at Hilo Hawaii, on the 2nd, and at Honolulu, Oahu, on the 14th of October. On the 15th Captain Finch and his officers met the king and chiefs, at the palace of Kauikeoauli, where they were gratified with a friendly reception. The commander of the Vincennes then read • communication of his own to the King. and gave hint both the original and a translation in the native language. He then read also the communication from the President of the United States to the King of the Sandwich Islands, , which he had brought; the same being read also from • translation into the native language, was delivered into the hands of the king. This being finished, Capt. Finch delivered the presents which the President had sent. A pair of globes, terrestrial and celestial, and a map of the United States to the King. A silver rase to Kaabumanu, with her name and the American arms upon it. Two silver goblets to Nabienaena, with her name and the American arms. A map of the world to Gov. Boki; and also a map of the world to Guy. Adams. The following are the above named communications which are now published by the request of the King and Chiefs, and with the con- sent of Capt. F. KING TAMA•MAHAR I The President has confided to my care a written communication fur yourself, and such counsellors as you rely upon • accompany it with various presents, for each ;in t e stimony o f t h e g ood opinion he enter tains for you, individually, and to evince his desire fur amity and con fidence, in all intercourse that may subsist, between your people and my countrymen. That the genuineness of the letter may not be questioned which might have been the use, if the transmission had been entrusted to casual conveyance; and to make it the more honourable to yourself, he has dispatched a ship of war for this and other purposes: and it is enjoined upon me as the commander, to deliver it in person him you' keeping ; to re-iterate the expressions of good will which it contains ; and to exhibit by my own deportment, the sincerity of the motives able:. has actuated hint. The friendly and kind reception afforded to one other national ship, the Peacock, has been most favourably represented by her commander, and doubtless has cundue,d greatly to the visit which I now make. The improving state of your peo ple _ has also been so interestingly described by one of your Mends, Rev. Mr. Stewart, now beside me, as to awaken among my countrymen at large, great benevolence or feeling towards you ; and it will be my duty, and I trust I shall be warranted, on my return among them, to strengthen their pre. possessions in your favour, and to modern the accounts of the good traits of chaactet of our new acquaintances the islanders, subject to your authority. With your leave, I will now acquit myself of the pleasing duty devolving upon me by reading and handing the document adverted to; which illustrates the light in which the President wishes to bold your nation ; and upon which you will, I hop:, ponder often, de liberately and fully. The presents I a:so ask permission to distribute amongst thow of your faithful friends for whom they are intended ; trusting that they ' will tend to enlargement of knowledge, invite to social and rational en joyments; and further, secute enduring recollection s o f t h e /11.141i1.11Ceb which I giv e o f the disitaerested friendship of the President and Government of the Urine(' States, and of their inclination to per petuate the peaceable condition happiness, and well doing, indi vidually and collectiv e ly, o f th ose who by your wisdom arc sup ported ; and whose support will increase. by a sense of their neces sities and your justice.

The following is the code of laws lately established by the Government of the Sandwich Islands, said to have been made at the suggestion of the Missionaries. (TRANSLATION.) These are the names of the King of the Islands, and the Chiefs in Council : Kautweaoon, the King, Oov. Bon, KauzuXlllltt, Gov. ADAMS Kt:WEIN t. MANUIA, KEKVAMADA t AILANAZA, Pan, Korot:, .10111 Ti, JAMZS HAEUMU. OAHU, Ocv. 7, 11129. This is my decision for you : we assent to the request of the English residents; we grant the protection of the laws ; that is the sum of your peti tio n. This, therefore, Is my proclamation, which I make known to you, all people from foreign countries I—The laws of my country pro- hibit Murder, Theft, Adultery, Fornication, Retailing Ardent Spirits at houses for selling spirits, Amusements on the Sabbath day, Gam bling and Betting on the Sabbath day, and at all times. If any man shall transgress any of these laws, he is liable to the pe nalty, the same to every foreigner and for the people of these Islands, whoever shall violate these laws shall be punished. This also I male known,—The Law of the Great God of heaven, that is the great thing by which we shall promote peace; let all men who remain here obey it. Christian Marriage is proper for men and women. But If a woman regard her man as her only husband, and the man regard his woman as his only wife, they are legally husband and wife; but if the parties are not married. nor regard themselves as husband and wife, let them forth with entirely separate. 11. This is also our decision, which I now declare to you. —We have seen your wickedness heretofore. You did not warn us that your dooryards and enclosed plantations were tabu before the time when our animals went into your enclosures ; you unhesita tingly killed our aufmals. But we warne d y ou o f t h e tabu of our plats talons before the time when the animals came into them, even yours; and then it was told again to you that have ealtle ; but for :some dots past we have known your tattle to come in to eat up what we had planted; on that account some of your cattle are dead. This then is the way to obtain justices if you judged the matt guilty, you are not forthwith to punish him ; wait till we have a consultation first: then, had we judged him guilty, we would have given you damages ; but no, you rashly steel-ondtlegitiOnitirg4 the man ; that is one of the crimes of two of you. And we rtSie to you all that the wounding of a beast is by no mean, quer to the wounding of a man, inasmuch as man is lord over all the beasts. This is our communication to you all, ye parents from the coutitti... whence originate the winds : have companion on a nation of little children, very small and young, who are yet in mental darkness., and help us to do right and follow with us that which will be for the best good of this our country. M. As to the recent death of the cow ; she died for breaking a tabu for the protection of the plantation. The place was defended also by a fence, built by the owner of the plantation. Having Av. cured his field by a fence, what remained to be done was the duty to the owners of cattle, who were told by him who had charge of the plantation, to bring home their cattle at evening. He did tell then, so, but they did not regard it ; and in the night they canoe in, but not by day. On that account, the owner of the hoped to recover damage ; for many were the cattle that were taken up before, but no damage wm recovered for the crop they had devoured ; the owners plead them off without paying damage, therefore he to whom the crop belonged determined that one of dm cat tle should die, for destroying the crop; for it had been said, that if any of the cattle should come into the enclosure devouring the crop. such cattle would be forfeited and become the property of the owner of the exp e c t ed c r o p. M any h ave b een seised, but they were begged off and gives up again ; this has been done many times. Why then are you so quick to be angry ? For within the enclosure was the place where the cow was wounded, after which she made her way o u t. What then means your declaration that the cow was wantonly shot in the common. The cow would not have been killed for simply grazing in the common pasture ; her feeding upon the cultivated crop was well known by t h ose who bad the care of the plantation. (Signed) RAUIREAOUI.I. Considerable excitation has arisen during the exhumation of bodies from St. Michael's, Cornhill. The Bridge Com mittee appointed an undertaker, but many relatives inter pose, and complain of disregard of their wishes and feel ings. At length the Common Council have censured both the Committee and their undertaker, and the wishes of families are to be respected. It would appear from the silence of Parliament, that it succumbs to public opinion, and will leave all its bad policy to be corrected by its reformed successors. Why, however, should it descend to the tomb with the critical marks of his tory upon it ? The people would not be unwilling to shed a tear over it, if even at this " eleventh hour" it were, by an energetic movement, to take into consideration the pray ers of the 185 bodies of petitioners who, in 1829 and 1830, complained of sufferings in terms eloquent enough to move any man but a political economist, a pernicious sect of which there are, however, nut a dozen in the House. It would find, that what was true then is more palpably true nowo and that personal sufferings then, have since been aggravated three or four-fold. Would it, at least, not be more satis factory to expire amidst the blessings and gratitude for this 100,000 petitioners than the contrary, which contrary we respectfully forbear to express ? Is there no member for a rotten borough zealous enough for his craft, to turn the tables on their adversaries in this desirable way ? He would have 100,000 pledged allies out of doors, if not the whole peo ple ; and rotten boroughs themselves would become popular again, were their members to associate for mice for the public good ! Let us then witness an amiable contest of this kind—let parties run a race in the public service—and we pledge ourselves that the people are yet to be bought by those who will do something for them. We argue however, of course, in the belief that the 185 petitions have not yet been sold for waste caper !
