LEICESTER PUBLIC MEETING. AT a MEETING of the ELECTORS and other Inhabitants of the Borough of Leicester, convened by public advertisement, and held at the New Hall, Wellington street, on Monday, Dec. 18, Joseph Whetstone, Esq., in the Chair. It was moved by Mr. R. HARRIS; seconded by T. T. PAGET, Esq., and carried unanimously, • Ist. That we, the Electors and other Inhabitants of this Bo rough here assembled regard the petition presented to Parliament against the return of our present Representatives, as an attempt to deprive the constituency of the services of gentlemen who have been returned as their Members at a fair and open election, by an undisputed and overwhelming majority. /loved by the Rev. C. BERRY ; seconded by Mr. J. AIOTT ; and carried unanimously, 2d, That the charges made in the course of the petition against the Magistrates, are gross falsehoods, and infamous slanders upon their public characters. That during the time these gentlemen have been in office, and throughout the whole of the Election, they have conducted themselves with a propriety and impartiality which has obtained for them the increased respect and confidence of all classes of their fellow townsmen. Moved by Mr. ALFRED BURGESS; seconded by Mr J. Bloom, THE LONDON and BRIGHTON RAIL WAYI COMPANY, incoporated by Act of Parliament, July 15, 1837. DIRECTORS. JOHN HARMAN, Esq., Chairman. JOHN MOXON, Esq., Deputy-Chairman. Captain Beauclere Lieut.-Colonel Moody,•R.E. John Cattley, Esq. Captain J. W. Pringle, R.E. Charles Henry Clay, Esq. Francis Ricardo, Esq. Isaac Lyon Goldsmid, Esq. Thomas S. Robinson, Esq. Moses A. Goldsmid, Esq. John Shewell, Esq. Richard Heaviside, Esq. Robert Sutton, jun., Esq. Colonel Hodgson Joshua Walker, Esq. John Hodgson, Esq. Sir Samuel Whalley, M.P. Donald Maclean, Esq. Josh. B. Wilks, Esq. ENGINEERS—Sir John Rennie, John Urpeth Rastrick, Esq. STANDING COUNSEL—Francis Henry Goldsmid, Esq. SOLICITORS—Messrs. Sweet and Sutton, Basighall-street, Lou- don ; Mr. Henry Faithful, Brighton. SECRETART—Mr. Thomas Wood. The Directors, anxious to arrive at the best possible data by which to test the merits of the Line to Brighton selected by the Government Engineer, instructed Mr. Rastrick to make out the working surveys, levels, and estimates of the Main Line and Branch to Shoreham, and to report thereupon to the Board, and to afford additional and corroborative evidence on the subject, the Directors requested Mr. Locke personally to inspect every part of the Line, and investigate the estimates, in order that he might be enabled to report fully on every point. Mr. Rastrick and Mr. Locke have completed their labours, and made their reports to the Directors, which have been submitted to the Subscribers ; and the Directors need hardly state that those reports are quite satisfactory, and prove beyond all question the eligibility of the Line, the cost of making it, and the time in which it can be completed. It only remains for the Directors to call the attention of the Subscriber to what more particularly affects their interests, namely, the profits which may be safely calculated upon. Taking the estimate of Mr. Locke (which is the highest), the sum required for making the Main Line, and the Branch to Shoreham, including Stations and every contingency, amounts to To this is to be added the estimate of Mr. Driver for Land, and the liabilities to which the Company is sub ject with various Landholders, making together a sum not exceeding ... £920,000 £203,000 Thus it is — seen that the Main Line and Branch to Shoreham, including Land, Buildings, Stations, and every contingency will be completed for the sum 0f......£1,120,000 Flaying thus ascertained the capital to be expended in the Main Line and Branch to Shoreham, the Directors refer to the income as proved in evidence before the Committees of both Houses of Parliament. From this evidence it appears that the traffic will pro duce a gross income of 305,0001. Deducting 50 per cent. from the sum for the annual expenses, there will remain a net income of 152,5001. to be divided amongst the Subscribers. In closing this Report the Directors cannot refrain from con gratulating the Subscribers on the favourable position of the Company, as they feel confident that this undertaking will lead to results alike beneficial to the Subscribers, the town of Brigh ton, and the public at large. By order of the Board, THOMAS WOOD, Secretary. London and Brighton Railway Office, 71, Lombard-street, Dec. 19, 1837. SCOTLAND. VALUABLE ESTATES in the COUNTY of CAITHNESS.

Moved by Mr. Alderman CRIPPS, seconded by Mr. JOSEPH ELLIS, and carried unanimously, 4th. That being convinced that this petition against,the return of - ttr present Representatives is but a part of an extensive system adopted with a view of annoying the supporters of Liberal princi ples in the Legislature and the country, and confiding in the legality and justice of the return made by the late Mayor, we pledge our selves to defend such return before a Committee of the House of Commons, by all lawful means in our power ; and that for this pur pose a subscription be immediately entered into, to which every friend and supporter of our principles is invited to contribute accor ding to his ability.

One of the most splendid disc..veries of the present age is now univer sity almitted, by the testimony of the most unquestionable authorities, to be GRIAISTONE'S Eve SNUFF. This fine herbaceous coinpound far sur passed anything before offered to the world ; and from its salutary effects •n those who habitually use it, it may be truly esteemed a national bless ing. The time has been, when every third man you met in the streets, :glared at one through the medium of spectacles, or protected his visual 'argaiis by shades of various hues and shapes. Verily the past was a I)linking generation We ask, is it so now? Every one must empha tically a n s wer, rr No!"

While this Society enables a person to provide for his family after his death, it Aso affords the power of making provision fur himsel during life, by GRANTING ANNUITIES, either IMME DIATE, DEFERRED, or SURVIVORSHIP. _ _ Every Member assured (for the whole term of life), whose Policy shall have existed three years, will be entitled to a proportional share of the quinquennial profits, which may be applied either by additions to their respective Policies, or in reduction of the Pre miums thereafter to become payable. Assurers may pay their Premiums in any way most suitable to their circumstances; either quarterly, half-yearly, or annually. Agent for West End—T. Lord, Esq., 13, Northumberland street, Strand. N. B.—A Committee of Directors, attended by a Medical Officer, sit at the Company's House, every Tuesday from Twelve till Two o'Clock, to grant Assurances, but one Director is DAILY in at tendance to render every facility to those whom despatch may be an object. MONUMENT TO THE LATE LORD BISHOP OF NORWICH, THE COMMITTEE have the pleasure to re port that Sir FRANCIS CHANTRY has visited Nor wich, and has held a very satisfactory communication with them, in the course of which he stated that he had selected a most eligible site in the Cathedral for the statue ; which he thought should be a sitting figure. Sir Francis Chantrey expressed the greatest readi ness to undertake the work, in consequence of his high respect for the late Bishop's character. The only impediment to the imme diate commencement by this eminent Sculptor of a Work of Art worthy of the occasion, appears to be, a deficiency in the Subscrip tion List. It may, however, be confidently anticipated, that the numerous admirers of the revered Prelate's character and virtues, and the Inhabitants generally of the Diocese, will not forego so favourable an opportunity of marking their esteem for him, from any reluctance to make further pecuniary exertions.

These Re turns have varied from 10 to 25 per cent. and have amounted to up wards of 100,0001. In the Life Office, nearly th• whole of the profits are divided among the parties insured. Their effect may be judged of from a Policy taken out by his late Majesty on his own life for 3,0001., which additions Increased to 3,9631.

The abatement of premium for the year 1838, on Policies of five years' standing, under the first of the above plans, is 51/. 12s. 3d. per cent.

Brodie and Mr. Mayo (names that would confer an immortality on any remedy), I was predisposed in favour of your Ointment, and made many trials in consequence, in cases of Chronic Ulcers, which six years• experience in the West Jndies h..d taught me to consider as incurable by the ordinary methods resorted to. lam now happy to say that in all cases it was, to my utter astonishment, really and truly efficacious, and that I have not the slightest hesitation in adding that I place the most entire re liance on it in all Diseases of the Epidermis,Enlarged Glands, and in long standing Ulcers. In Sore Nipples it is an excellent remedy. (Signed) " EDWARD BIN NS. " London, 7, Milton-stre't, Dorset-square, September 14, 1837."

As manhood approaches, the human form, counte nance, voice,. sad the whole intellectual character, rapidly undergo a revolution. Love is the end and sum of lifi, creating image after image of ideal perfection. But in the present state of society, pure and virtuous enjoyment is orten postponed and obstructed, till the escoss of youthfirl impetuosity impels to a course of wild and Injurious indul gence, and the mind becomes painfully harassed by alternations of fear, disgust, and passion. lu this state relief is perhaps sought from the inex perienced, perhaps &cm the ignorant ; in either ease at the expense of health, that being only palliated which should have been effectually cured. Here we propose to step in and rescue the victim of unwise indulgence from the pangs of remorse, disappointed hope, and disease • and we pledge ourselves to eradicate every taint of syphilitic poison, and to restore to its wonted energy every relaxation of the generative economy, whether from this or other causes, whereby the dignity of manhood shall have become impaired ; equally contemning unfeeling empyricism, which with reckless ignorance destroys where it should restore; and, on the other hand, that unworthy principle" whose proud selfishness increases the embarrass merit of the afflicted. All classes of society, not excepting the Anglo. Indian, but more especially such as are about to enter into matrimonial life, are included in the limits of this address, and to all we confidealy offer the result of many years' sucetisful practise. Daily attendance is given tor personal consultation ; and immediate an swers are returned to country letters, which must minutely describe the case, and eoutain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, which can be forwarded to any part o fthe world, however distant —No difficulty can occur, as the Medicine will be securely pecked, and carefully protected front observation.
