Friend did net Callow up his notice, he certainly would bring the busineits before the liroprietors. ICOVI PANT% TRADE. Mr. Hike rase to give notice that it was his in tention, on a Ware day, to bring before the Court Ilievoinmerchil transactions of the Company. lu doing this, he hail no wish to injure the Company— but, on she contrary, his object was, to have their af fairs carried on iu the most profitable manner. From every i n quiry lie could make, he found that their com m er c e to fitadras i , sod Bombay, with the ebiceptiosi of uTew articles, was carried ou at a Very great loss—mod it' proceeded in much longer, on the prevent system, they would be obliged to call for assistance from the country. lie held in hi• head a stattomeat of all their cotmereitil Irmo- actions at Madras, from which it appeared that there was an expense of 1 lack 11,000 pagodas, on aninvestinent of 10 lacks—being 10 per cent.— for solar*. only. This. coupled with 'other ex penses, amounted to 25 pet cent. more than *hat it coat the private trader for. the same articles. He lied to account of the state of the different l'resi tlencirs ander the Madras Qoverament, and he found, that on statious where the goods purchased slid not amount to more than 5,0001. the salaries of the officers were as high as 4,000% or perhaps e,spoi. In the'ceded districts ' the amount of the taisblishment was 314,000 pagodas, being 37 per rent. on the whole investment. In other places it tore a proportion of 10, 14, or 16 pet cent. It was impos-ible for them, under these circumstances, to compete with the private trader. The CHAIRMAN hoped the Court would not break up mutter the impression that the Company rare Carrying on trade at • great lose. He would maintain, when the accounts were laid before the Court. that the Company's commercial affairs met with the greatest attention, and that their expendi ture mug most economical. lie would prove, at the proper time. that the result of their trade, com pared with that carried on by individuals. was cre ditable to the Gentlemen behind the Bar, and pro- Mettle to the Coupon!.—( Haar.) MR. HUDDLESTONS AND COL. WILKES. Mr. Hume, seeing an HOD. Ex•Din•ctur (Mr. Huddle-atom) in his place, wished to ask a outs tam of great thiportitisce. Re rose very reluctantly on this occasion ; but, as the humor and welfare of the 'Cainpatty depended on their Executive Body bolding a high aid unimpeaelsed character, lie was induced to introduce this business to the ('unit. It was known to many persons its that 'Costa, - tlv.t 11 most serious charge hod been made agititot Out Hon. Ex-Director—and he hoped be ironid he able to repel it.

Et-Director to justify himself in a fortnight N. A.*, weeks ? De hoped they knew what justice*** better—hr hoped they knew better the mete of society in which they lived—where the most shameful accusations were frequently made against the purest characters. He trusted they would not suffer a charge of this kind, made alter a lapse of thirty-four years, to envelope in disgrace and distionour the character of a man who had never departed from the path of rectitude. flit Honourable 1?x-1)8rector would, he hoped, stand en a level with other Gentlemen, when he appeared before his constituents, after the denial they had that day heard —and that he would take the most proper course to repel this slande:•, which, he would say, was brought forward in the must cruel manlier. After some few ohwervations from Mr. D. KIK. ir A I lin and the Utrute-CsAtataas, the discussion ended, and the Court adjourned some die. REPEAL, OR CO,l/MUTATION OF THE SALT DUTIES. That distingnisheol philanthropist. Sir Thomas Bernard, continue, Ins benevolent endeavours to open the eyes of the public to the great advantages that would result from the free ass of salt, not only in our fisherieo, and in Carious manufacturer, but in agricultural concerns, and fur sheep and all other kinds of live stock. - In his *, Case of the Salt Donee," he has adduced many instances in which practical agriculturists had preserved their flocks in a state of health and vigour, by giving the sheep a few ounces of salt each, two or three times a week.—Lord Somerville was the lirot to es tablish this fact on Isis farm, situated in the rich vale of 'lfauntoto-Deasse, where the soil produces feed of the most luxuriant and succulent kind, but the injurious effects of which were counteracted by the judicious use of salt. Ills Lordship gave it a fair trial of seven year., on a flock of 1,000 sheep ; during which period the disorder called the Rot, lately so prevalent and fatal in the same distinct. was unknown.—Mr. Curwen, Member fur Carlisle, but lately adopted the same practice, not only tc wards his sheep, but his live stuck in general ; the happy consequence of which is, that he has not lost use this Wet season ; his flock are all healthy tad thrivilig. Sir Thomas Barnard has lately communicated to a gentleman in Bails, an account of the great and shunting progress of the Rot in sheep, o-casionetl, as is supposed, by the continued wet weather, dur ing the last summer ; much of the ill-eff.cts of which might, in all probability, have been prevented by s judicious use of salt. He states that YO,OOO sheep were sold at Weyhill-fair last October, as sound, which turned out to be affected with Rot, and si such returned to the farmers who sold them —and A is most likely that the greatest put of three diseased sheep must have since died, as the season loss continued particularly unfavourable to such delicate animals, which, though they can en dure cold. cannot bear a great deal of wet. These unsound sheep were bred, for the most part, in the very neighbourhood where Lord Somerville had preserved his flock in such complete health with the use of salt ! It is further stated through the same amine!, that a farmer iu Wiltshire had this season lost by the Rot 900 sheep out of a flock of 1.000. These facts are truly alarming ; the truth of which there appears no reason to doubt ; it is even confirmed by the rapid 1 unusual advance of the price of mutton in our markets, and the scarcity of what is good. if salt be a specific either for the prevention or cure of diseases in sheep. the ►use cutls loudly fur legishitive measures being imme diately taken to allow the free use of it. We ob serve the counties of Chester. Flint, Essex, &c. havecome forward with Petitions to Porlrau►eut, for the repeal or consolidation of the Salt Deities, and we tiocerely hope other counties and public bodies will losmedisiely hollow their example. Nu tune should be lost, es Mr. Calevalt has happily suc ceeded in Ins motion for a Committee to inquire into the.pirseitt state or the Salt Duties, and to c►►nsider oil the mind advisable remedy fur the ex isting evils, and that twenty - 16one Members were appointed thereon. We heartily congratulate our readers on an event which prowshies the most beneficial reiulta to the country at latge.

And tLat I may not lose sight of Justice in remembering Werg, let me first profess that, deeply as I deplore the evils of a s . antes! which seeress to me to rival in wretcheduesi that of a sl;olie 'phonation under the Torrid Zone, yet am I far. from imPutilig cruelty of dispessitiou to the owners of cotton mills indiserinsinefety.

Huw much rather, I would ask, will be be merciful to his servants? rot the case, then, that those servants are animist:it, how gentle end how jest wilt be the goad man's authority over the meekest and the gen tlest of . the bunion tare! But this is a strange world, sad society teems with toutradictions. There seems to we some thing in the nature of a cotton-mill, I know not whether it be steam or bad air, or the scintillations of leers amidst the preciuus forks, that can work up lab activity the worst ports of our nature, and deface the best, so that the weep of hu man kindness.

Will it be credited by a British public, that cacti ore the extreme measures of labour exacted in sumeuf these factories, that it is found necessary to have recourse in an evening to ropes and straps, to rouse the little wearied vie. tints, and force exhausted nature fawn squiring into sleep iu the midst of its dreadful and inhuman task?
