The Publisher presents this Edition of the Paradise lost" to the admirers of sit and to the world, as the most epkndill and beautiful form in which that immortal rum: hayt ever yet ap peared.' The chief object and distinctive charm of this pablieation are the exquisite productions of art by which it is embellished . these consist of twenty-four Illustrative Engravings, designed and ex ecuted in mezzotinto, by Mr. Martin, in a style of sod:dimity and beauty to which it may be confidently said that the Arta have hitherto produced nothing equal. Those only who have sew the grand Scriptural Paintings of this Artist (his Belshazzar's Feast, and aaacotbers) can be duly impressed with the peculiar adapts don of his power' so the forty Undertaking of ernbndyieg the etre:Woos and preteynatnral imagery of the ` Paradise Lott , ln* which the sublime genius of Milton has given thosie wonderful 'descriptions of Heaven, and Hell, and Paradise. and Chaos, and Creation: these, it may be said, without wishing to derogate from the merits of the eminent Active who have already employed their pencils to illustrate this Poem, have not yet been treated with a boldness and grandeur kindred to the mighty imagination which created them. _ _ 4 ASHIONAISIA STOCK 'OF IRMOLSTERt Atip CB- - IRINET FURNITURE.

WJ ST R IP(AA. It is a circumstance also which cannot fail to be highly appre ciated by the connoisseur. that Mr. Martha, by a rr,re effort of art, has wholly composed and designed his subjects on the Plates themselves; the Engravings, therefore, possess, as originals, the charm of bing the first conceptions of the Artist, and have all the spirit and finish of the painter's touch. The greatest care has been taken in respect to the canneloni of the text: it will also be distinguished by the beauty of the painting and of paper. The Publisher, therefore, presumes that this Poem (unquestion ably one of the greatest productions of human mind, and which more than any other single work has tended to raise the literary I glory of the country) will be presented to the world with a splendour. and appropriateness of style calculated to gratify the proud national feelings with which our great Poet is regarded h his own countrymen, and the enthusiastic admiration in which he is held by all persons capable of estimating his transcendent genius. The original intention was to publish this work on imperial quarto only, to which size the plates were adapted; it has, how ever, been since determined on to publish also an edition in im perial masa°, in order to which purpose Mr. Martin has engraved the subjects again to correspond therewith.

Extract from Mr. John IVhiciing's report :—" The chalk stone, of which the estate appears to contain an inexhaustible supply from the very great depth of the strata, is the beat I have seen for burn ing what is technically called Graystone Lime, now sq much in de mand in London." A solid yard of chalk made into lime forms what is called a hundred, which sells for about l6s. The above quantity then made and sold would yield 1,996,5001., nearly two millions sterling, and occupy 20 kilns, constantly at work for 70 years. There is, therefore, rough material sufficient for forming an esta blishment for burning lime. The situation is convenient, being about 4 miles above Rochester, and only I mile and a quarter from the banks of the Medway, which is navigable for barges at all times of the tide, and for a cer tain period every tide is navigable by very large vessels. The descent to the Medway is gradual, being about one foot in 60. There is a parish road, and at the river side there is a public wharf ; the charge for landing coals is 3d. a chaldron, and for ex porting lime 2d. a ton. To facilitate conveyance, a railway might be made, either for waggons drawn by horses, or by loco-motive engines, from the works to the Medway ; and it is expected that the parish would readily consent to allow such a railway to be made, in order to get free of the expense of repairing the parish road. The burning of the lime may be effected in such a way that the coke produced will more than pay the expense of the coals. The work is conducted in an elevated building, filled from the top with blocks of chalk ; at the lower part of it are iron bars, which support the chalk. The whole heat, flarue, and smoke of the coal during its transformation into coke, ascend upwards through the chalk, and burn it to lime. Gradually as the lime is burnt it falls down, and is taken through the iron bars to the bot tom, whence it is carried away. As the quantity subsides new blocks are put on at the top, and thus the process goes on for ever. By this process, from the quality of the gray chalk, there is no refuse ; neither is there any expense of screening the lime. It is at once obtained in its finest and most perfect state. The coke obtained by this process is very superior to the coke made at the gas works, as its strength it not so much exhausted. Twelve chaldrons of coal wilt make seventeen chaldrons of coke. The coke will sell from 31s. to 323. per chaldron. Coals may be purchased at 11,ichester from 280. to 30s. per chal dron. The expense of erecting a lime-kiln, together with the coke oven, would be from 3501. to 3001. supposing all the materials to be pur chased and brought from a distance ; but as lime and sand are to be had on the spot, and bricks also in the immediate neighbour hood, the expense will be less. Fire-bricks and iron must be brought by water from London. Mr. Heathom's charge for license to erect one kiln is 108 guineas. If several be erected, the charge per kiln is much less. Mr. Heathorn himself superintends the erection and guaranties that it shall burn from 87 to 38 hundred of lime. London measure, weekly, and save the expense of the whole fuel by the small goal being con verted into coke. The quantity of coke made by a kiln weekly will be about seven teen chaldroos. If a common railway be constructed, it may be done economically by means of old ship timber, which is always to be had at a chem. rate at Rochester, which may be covered with a surface of iron. Cottages for the workmen and stabling for the horses must be erected on the ground. It will be the interest of the Company to employ its own barges. Wharfs may be obtained for selling the lime at sonic of the ba sins of the Regent's canal. The capital required to purchase the works, and make all the necessary arrangements fur twenty kilns, will be 10,0001. ; but to guaranty the Directors against the possibility of any deficiency of capital, the capital has been made 100,000/. A Deed of Settlement for the regulation of the Company will be irtrrnedlately prepared, which, when approved of by the Directors, shall be deemed the proper Deed of Settlement under which the affairs of the Company will be conducted. Applications for Shares to be made This Day, either to Messrs. Sir Wm. Kay, Bart. Price, Marryatt, and Coleman, Mansion House street ; or to Messrs. Wilts and Verbeke, Solicitors. 36, New Broad-street. After this day no application can be received. The applications will be answered to-morrow. A deposit of it. per Share must be paid into the hands of the Treasurer on or before the 17th instant, and, in the course of the present month, a further rill of 4!. will be made for the purpose of enabling the Directors to complete their purchase, and put the works into operation.

That the prorsed Metropolitan Water Company Bill, if passed into a law, will be seriously and extensively injurious, inasmuch as the proposed Company will be enabled to sink Ntells I and Shafts in different parts of the Metropolis and its Vicinity, whereby the Springs 11-om which the public and private Pump', end the various Establishments referred to, have for a series of years been supplied, will be greatly deteriorated, if not entirely destroyed.

It is intended to publi c under this Title a Selection from the best productions of the French Dramatic Writers.—The Andra inasue of Racine will be the first of the Series. • hash of the Plays will be elucidated -Ist. By appropriate arguments at the head of each scene, to un ravel the plot, as well as develope the subject, characters, and various incidents throughout the piece. 2d.

The Drama, that exquisite and invaluable portion of French literature, cannot fall to present to the young learner many per plexities, far beyond the comprehension of his immature judg ment. By the different illustrations that will be given, it sill be the chief object to render his path easy and pleasant, and to unfold the beauties of the scene, which might otherwise lie unobserved or tinvegarded.

As the selection will consist of :such plays as are paformed in the theatres of France, it is hoped that the work may prove a use ful companion to English visitors of the French metropolis, or principal towns, who s e imperfect acquaintance with the language might preclude them from participating in the enjoyment of scenic entertainments. The selection will embrace the high and dignified character of Tragedy, as well as the refined and spirited elegance cf the Comic Muse. Great pains will be taken to combine pleasure with utility; the arguments and notes will be written in an easy style, and the dryness of observation avoided as much as possible. PR.
