COGNAC BRANDY, like the 'wine from which it is obtained, requires age for its perfection ; when old, it is the most wholesome of spirits, but when new it is deficient in its good and medicinal properties; while, if adulterated with British Brandy, these valuable properties are lost, and, from a generous and invigorating cordial, it is changed into a coarse and inflammatory spirit. The great difficulty of procuring good genuine old Cognac Brandy, cl the high duty charged upon it, have hitherto prevented many Pins from using it; but now that a good and genuine article may be obtained, and at a much more moderate rate, it is natural to ex pect a great increase in the consumption. To meet this demand, Mr. L. E. SEIGNETTE has determined to avail himself of his long and Intimate acquaintance with the Brandy trade as an importer. lie holds the largest stock of Cognac Brandy, Pale and brown, in this country, and, he accordance with the wishes and recommendations of his numerous friends, he has taken out a Wholesale Dealer's Foreign License, which enables him to dispose of it in quantities of two gallons upwards, duty paid. Be pledges him- Self to sell none but the best Old Cognac Brandy, genuine as im ported, and carefully selected. To those who know him, he feels assured that this pledge will be satisfactory. To strangers, who can discriminate the soft and fla grant flavour of pure and matured Cognac from the coarse, ardent, and frequently adulterated spirit until now imposed on the public, he recommends a trial, with reliance on their judgment in favour of the suPerior quality of his Brandy. Mr. Seignette begs also to offer to the Public the best Hollands' Geneva that can be imported. Prices for Cash on delivery, in quantities not less than two gallons are 245. per Gallon for bestt Pale Brown Cognac Brandy. bes . 26e. ,' best Geneva (Ilollands). 20s. liberal allowance io the Brandies whom Mr. Seignette takes the ePPortunay of offering his and Geneva in bond at current market prices. ,„,..A wanted for Town an d Country ,g"lts : persons of respectability apply, per letter only, at the Office, 26 and 14; MINCING -LANE, CITY. _ _ • ]EtURGESS' ESSENCE of ANCHOVIE Warehouse, 107, STRAND, corner of the Savoy-steps, London' JOHN BURGESS and SON, being apprised of the numerous en; Aleavours made by many persons to impose a spurious article for their Make, feel it incumbent on them to request the attention of the Public, in purchasing what they concei ve to be the original to getU e ob serve the Name and Address correspond w ith the above.

A Meeting of the Shareholders has been called, in accordance with the Sessional Orders recently passed by both Houses of Parliament, at which it is necessary that one-third of the capital of the Company should be represented. Shareholders who are unable to be present are requested to lodge their Scrip with any of the following parties, who will give a receipt for the same, and return the Scrip after it has been produced to the Meeting, viz. : Mr. John Marr, Secretary to the Company, 28, Parliament-street, Westminster ; Messrs. Hope and Oliphant, W. S., Princes-street, Edinburgh; Messrs. Grahame, Maxwell, and Co., St. Vincent-street, Glasgow. In consequence of the works being now limited to the Western Extension, the Directors will be enabled either to reduce the amount of the shares or to restrict the sum to be called upon each to a Very considerable extent. • The project, as now limited, consists, first, of the Branch from Lesmahagow to the Clydesdale Junction Railway at Hamilton, opening a direct communication from the most valuable mineral expected, as the gas coal of Lesmahagow may be .

The Scripholders' Committee have to announce that a Deputation of their Body had an Interview with the Managing Directors, on the 19th instant, when specific answers were promised to a series of questions relating to the affairs of the Company. The Answers re ceived are most unsatisfactory. The Directors state that they " Cannot possibly give the amount of expenses," and that they " Do not intend to call a Meeting under the Sessional Order, until after the second reading," which stands for the 29th instant. It is, therefore, of the u!most importance, that THE PETITION TO PARLIAMENT TO STAY THE BILL, which has already received the support of nearly Four Thousand Scripholders, should before that day be signed by a clear majority. Scripholders who have not Signed the Petition, ALTHOUGH THEY MAY HAVE SENT A LETTER OF DISSENT TO THE COMPANY, are earnestly requested to apply, without delay, to Mr. G. D.

TRENT VALLEY MIDLANDS and GRAND JUNCTION RAILWAY. The Committee of Management have to inform their Shareholders, that the Committee appointed to decide upon the group of railways in which this Company's project is included, has been appointed to meet on MONDAT NEXT. The Subscribers are already aware that an arrangement for amal gamation has been concluded with the South Staffordshire Company, and that therefore the main expense of a Parliamentary conflict will be avoided ; the only point open for decision in Committee being, whether the route proposed by this Company or that proposed by the opposing Company shall be adopted. The conclusion of the Committee on this point cannot involve any lengthened sittings, and so soon as it shall be announced, the Share holders will be in a condition to arrive at a satisfactory vote upon the entire measure. The Directors have, therefore, thought it expedient to postpone the meeting, which could otherwise have been immediately convoked, in obedience to the new Sessional Orders ; but it will be called on as eariy a day subsequent to the decision of the Committee as the requi site forms will allow.

THE ARGUMENT, PART I.—Shows how Mr. Brunel, in 1838, persuaded the Directors of the Great Western Railway to adopt the Broad Gauge, assuring them that this railway would have " no connexion with any other of the main lines ;" and how, in 1845, he attempted to force a con nexion between it and the main lines, at Wolverhampton, Rugby, Dorchester, &c.—How Mr. Brunel stated that carriages and trucks would not pass from one railway to another, being different pro perties, whereas more than half a million are passing annually at the present time.—How Mr. Brunel, in 1838, adopted the Broad Gauge, for the express reason that the railway would be nearly level, and have very slight curves ; and how, in after years, he applied the Broad Gauge to Railways having the steepest gradients and the sharpest curves.—How Mr. Bruuel said, in 1839, that " he never re commended the Bread Gauge for the purpose of having larger en gines ;" and how, in 1845, it was his boast that he was building en gives wider and larger. How Mr. Brunel selected the Broad Gauge because he could place the bodies of the carriages within the wheels, and how he has always brought them outside the wheels. — How Mr. Brunel advocates the atmospheric system, which in all essential points is the exact converse of the Broad Gauge System. PART ll.—Shows what Mr. Saunders thought of competition in 1844, when he was a disinterested party, and what he said about Competition when he was an interested party. Jolan:ollivier, 59, Pall-mall.

' The attendance of members on practice-days being um ally very large, and complaints having been made that the bowlers of the club are not always in the way when wanted, more especially when a match terminates on a practice day, the Committee have unanimously adopted the following re gulations, which, in future, will be strictly enforced : " Secretary will continue to enter the names of the bowlers, who will attend on the four practice-days, in the Bowlers Book,' and the same will be placed every Monday afternoon on the table in the Pavilion. w" 'Leave ofabsence during the week will not be granted to any bowler who shall not have signified his wish to the Hon. Secretary, or a member of the Committee, if on the ground, before three o'clock on Monday. "No bowler, unless employed on the service of the club, will be allow ed to be absent more than four practice-days during the season; and then efficient substitutes must be found. "'At the conclusion of a match half an hour will be granted to those bowlers who have either played, scored, or stood umpire ; and at the expiration of that tune they must take their places on the ground : the ethers must have the wickets immediately pitched for practice. "‘ Members are particularly requested to address all coma plaints in writing to the Hon. Secretary of the club.' " " REMUNERATION TO BE PAID TO THE PLAYERS.
