London, were maturely consitheed, and it was um imously resolved. 1. That these measures are not such as would have been pursued by persons desirous only of having their fair claims eaniidered uud adjusted, the tendency of them being to cast general obloquy upon the Society, and to disparage it in the eyes of the public throughout the kingdom. 2. That this Board has always entertained and attended to all pm per applications made to it by claimants respecting losses, and by the Members generally, respecting the principles arid concerns cl the So ciety, and will continne so to do. 3. Thid this Board looks back with unfeigned satisfietion on the repeated testimonies which have been borne by Committees in various parts of the kingdom, and by the \ Ismbers at large, to the prompti tude, impartiality, and justice of its decisions, end calls upon the numerons Committees. and on the .Nleitibers generally, to declare their sentiments on these points. 4. That valuableassistatice having been rendered to the Directors by the Committees established tlinmghout the kingdom for the in vestigation and adjustment of claims, this Board strongly recom mends to the London Meiviiers the appointment of a Local Com mittee, which may andird in r.unibers and respectability with the extent of the tiviciety's coneerns in the Metropelit. fly order of the Bosed of Directors.

They went into an inn ; tio gyp.ey woman drew can's, examined the palm of his hand, with various other juggleri..w, and at length cried out, "in the curter of your cellar are buried 35,0n0 francs.'"f he miller was in extrsy. proceeded together to his house, and went into the cellar; but it we. tint neces , ary that he should deposit there yon francs in gold eor.tainer! in a handkerchief, which she cut in two and gave but. The money was instantly produced by the miller and deposited in th.e fours.—" In twenty ilas." said the gypsey, " dig here, and at the depth of six feet you'll hod 35,000 franca.' The miller did so, brit found nothing—not even his ti 7 Louis in gold. for which the gypsey had .oiltstituted as many farthings wrapped up in the boil kachier. BIRTHS.
