BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi cacy of this medicine : " 157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850. " acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. "About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro cured the best inedieal aid, without obtaining any essential relief, and my sufferings can be appreciated only by these who know some thing of this disease. "It was during one of those paroxysms, between twelve and thir teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I oat no time in procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity the pain had entirely ceased, - and in a few days I was in perfect health. " From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is so valuable, that were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf fered, but on the gontrary,l believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS is towards its improvement. " I have recommended the Pilli to many friends, and the result has always been of the most gratifying character. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, "GARRET FOSTER GILL. " to Mr. Prout, 229, Strand." For every description of Gout and Rheumatism, Sciatica, Tic-dolo reux, &c., &c., BLAI It'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS are a sovereign remedy, contain neither mercury, opium, or may other dangerous drug, require no care whatever in their use, and ler ra pidity of cure and complete safety have not their equal in the world. • Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London; and all respectable Medicine Vendors.

Jude pendent of the extra receipt during the season of the Great Exhibition down to October last, and with only about five miles of additional line open, the income from the ordinary sources of regular traffic has for some time past exceeded, by above 3,000/, per week, the amount of the corresponding period of 1851. At the present, usually the dullest season for railway traffic, the increase is steadily maintained, the aggregate amount of receipts daring the first six weeks in the current year being 62,4481. as against 44,4251. in the same time last year. " The coal traffic is now yielding a gross revenue exceeding 2,0001. a week, and would have been much more productive, but that the South Yorkshire coal owners have not been able to furnish the sup plies necessary to meet the groat and constantly in creasing demand. They are, h owever, engaged in strenuous efforts to extend the supply, by which they hope, within a reasonable time, to be able to furnish any quan tity that may be required. The directors have been led recently to make arrangements for bringing coal also from the Durham field, and as far as this expe riment has been tried, it appears likely to bo remunera tive; of course, depend upon the price at w hi c h t h e owners will deliver h " The accounts consist of a statement of rece i pts an d ex penditureo :_ appended, ' f capital to 31st December, 18 51, with abstracts t e eir extenteo coal. to which thLi can b e carr i e d m ust, in explanation; and of statements of rei - enue and net giving details; and Gross amount of revenue ••• •••X315650 5 3 Working and other expenses chargeable , revenue, they exhibit with documents results upon revenue ... ••• —• 157,044 9 4 as fo l low shsetnosstlzend Witham- I r s ir, deducted as Counties Rail way Leaving of net disposable revenue ... £ Ffolll this amount of disposable revenue are 6 , 605 15 " per ' net revenue statement' guaranteed re n ts, prefer enceth.s 158,605/.

The directors of this company have just issued their report, to be submitted to the proprietors at the half yearly meeting on the 4th of March. The report states that the receipts for the half-year ending the 31st of January, 1852, amounted to 405.7081., and the working expenses and renewals to 137,4321. The sum of 6,083/. has been laid aside for the future renewal of the permanent way. The rates, taxees and tolls amount to 18,322/.; the Government duty to 13,931/; the rents of the Greenwich, Canterbury, and Whitatable, and Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Railways, to 43,3861.; which sums, in addition to the interest on the mortgage debt and guaranteed stock of the company, 52,448/., make a total deduction from the gross earn ings of 271,603/. ; leaving a balance available for dividend of 131,0211. A comparative statement of passenger traffic on different portions of the railway for the half-years ending on the 31st of January, 1851, and the 31st of January, 1852, shows the following results:—On the main line and branches for the half-year ending January, 1852. the receipts amounted to 208,0651; and for the same period ending January, 1851, to 170,0701., showing an increase of 37,994/ ; on the North Kent line the receipts ending January, 1852, amounted to 64,614/, and ending Jan., 1851, to 59,339/., showing an increase of. 5,2741.; on the Greenwich branch the receipts ending January, 1852, amounted to 24',035/., and ending January, 1851, to 22,132/, showing an increase of 1,903/.; on the Reading, Guildford, and Reigate the receipts ending January, 1852, amounted to 10,9911., and ending January, 1851, to 9,338/., increase 1,653/. A similar statement of the goods traffic for the same periods shows the following results:—Main line and branches 56,146/. against 48,290/., increase 7,855/.; North Kent 5,494/. against 3,6571, increase 1,8371.; Reading and Reigate 4,871/. against 3,4491., increase 1,4221.; total increase in goods traffic, 11,115/. The total increase for the last half-year, as compared with the corresponding period ending January 30, 1851, amounted to 56,793/. The through traffic to and from London and Folkestone, and Dover and Ramsgate and Margate,andFolkestoneforhalf-yearande nding Dover Jan.lBs2, fromagainst 61,3511.—increase, 23,012/.; to and from Ramsgate and Margate, ending January 31, 1852, 18,821/., as against 18,793/.—increase 271.; making a total increase of through traffic of 23,0401. The whole increase of re ceipts last half-year, compared with the corresponding period ending Jan. 31, 1851, amounted to 58,178/., of which 46,825/. etas from passenger traffic, 11,115/. from goods traffic, and 2371. rents and sundries. The directors look with confidence to a continuing increase in the company's receipts; they believe that the traffic over the South-Eastern line consequent 'on the extension of communication by railway to Lyons and Marseilles, and over the continent generally, and the natural develop ment of traffic in its own district, will eventually pro• duce a return which will satisfy the expectations of the_ proprietors. The cost of coke manufac tured by the company at Folkestone during the last half-year was 17s. 10id. per ton; that sup plied by contract from the Whitstable and Strood ovens was at the price of 20s. 3d. per ton. 'This contract ex pired on the 31st of January, and has been renewed for the ensuing year at 17s. lid. per ton. There is a pro bability of iron screw steamers being employed to bring coal from the north to the company's ovens, in which caso a diminution in the freight would, of course, effect the cost of the coke, and benefit would ensue to the coal trade on the line. It will be observed that the quantity of coke consumed per mile last half-year was 24-42561 b. per mile run against 29'14571h. per mile run in the cor responding halt' of the preceding year; the saving is to be attributed partly to the superior construction of the new engines purchased, and partly to the improvements which have been adopted in renewing the old stcck.

The opening of the Tunbridge-wells line to Hastings, w hi c h took place on the Ist of February, insures, during the existence of the contract with the Brighton company, an 'equal division of the London and Hastings traffic be tween the two companies. 25,480/. has been reoeived during the half-year on outstanding calls. The present mortgage debt of the company is raised at an average charge of 4.375 per cent. per annum; this average will be reduced as the money raised at higher rates is paid off. The directors will hereafter recommend the pro prietors to capitalize the mortgage debt, by converting it into preferential stock, guaranteed 3i per cent. per annum. The directors recommend that a dividend be declared at the rate •of 3} per cent. per annum, or 10s. 6d. per 30/. share. This will leave a balance in hend of 4,269/. At the ensuing meeting the term in office of three of the directors will expire—namely, Mr. M'Gregor, Mr. Renshaw, and Captain Warren. The directors propose that on the present and futuro occa sions one retiring director should not offer himself for re election. The report of the auditors—Messrs. C. Child, J. Morgan, and T. Browne—states that the accounts are correct, and that their audit has been continuous. The consolidated stock account shows that 7,433,700/. is entitled to dividend as ordinary stock, and 410,870/. as guaranteed 41 per cent. stock in per petuity. The capital account to January 31, 1852, shows that 10,120,390/. had been received, and 10,183,9961. expended, leaving a balance against the company of 63,605/.

The half-yearly meeting o f this company was held on Saturday et the railway station, Easton-square, Sir Harry Verney, MY, in the chair. Mr. WATKI, the secretary , read t h o report, which stated that the exp enditure of the company having b een closed at the amount of the share capital stated in the lease of the line to the London and North-Western Company, w h o , having undertaken by de e d t o d efray any further outlay, the functions of the board have in a great measure ceased, and it becomes unnecessary to lay before the _proprietors any further details of expen diture. The directors have received, from the London and North-Western Company the first half-year's rent payable ander the low, which boa Inca duly paid to the proprietors. and which will be brought into account at the next half-yearly meeting. A short line for form. ing a junction with the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton line at Oxford, promoted by the London and North-Western Company, with the cordial assent of this company, has passed standing orders; and, look ing to the probabilities of the future, the directors trust that a large accession of traffic from various quarters will be brought upon the line when connexions west ward, now projected, are finally carried out. Mr. UPCROFT wished to know why the report had not been circulated among the proprietors at the previous Meeting? Mr. WATKIN said the reason was that the directors did n 0 consider it necessary. M ?LITCHFIELD also complained that the report and acs . is had not been sent to the proprietors, and at the 8 . 1 . time stated that if he had seen the report before hand he would not have come from the country to at tend the meeting. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, 'said that if the proprietors desired to havea copy of the report and accounts sent • to them some days prior to holding the future meetings it should bo done. He had merely to state that the traffic on the line was pro creasing as well as could be expected, and there was a great probability of its being further increased by means of the proposed extension line. It was parti cu l ar l y re quisite for the district through which their line passed that there should be railway communication from the west to bring the cattle and other traffic .to it. On the completion of the projected lines'to-the wee they would have a large accession of coal -and other traffic to their railway. In reply to a question, Mr. WATKIN stated that the amount of capital speci fted is the lease of theiine was 1,245,0001. . Mr. UPCAOFT thought that as the Junctions of the di rectors had nearly ceased there was no occasion to have so many as•ls directors. Mr. GLvbr, M.P.>, explained that it was not desirable to reduce the number of their local directors, as the com pany derived considerable advantage from their exer tion in promoting the traffic, and from their knowledge_ of parties in the district through which the line passed. The CEAZEMAN said that one-half of the board con sisted of London and North-Western directors, and the other of local directors. It was of no consequence to the proprietors of the Bnekingharnshire Railway how many directors were on the board, •as they were not any expense to them. Resolutions were passed adopting the report, re-elect ing Admiral Moorsom, the Hon. P. S. Pierrepont, Sir H. Verney, M.P., and Mr. T. Young, the retiring di reetors ; electing Mr. W. Rawson a director, in the room of Mr. R. Creed, who retired ; and re-electing the. retiring auditors, Mr. R. Carter add Major-General M'lnnes. The proceeding concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. NEWPORT, ABERGAVENNY, AND HEREFORD The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on Friday at the Lendon Tavern, the Hon. W. E. Fitzmau rice in the chair. The report stated that the whole of the land for the main line had beon agreed for, with the exception of a few small parcels, now in course of arrangement. A new contract for the entire works of the line has been let to Mr. J. Rennie, of Newport. The works are in active progress, and (under the contract) are to bo com pleted on the' 30th of September,. 1853. The dircctors have completed the purchase of the Hereford tramroad by payment of the balance of the purchase moneys, amounting to 9,7291.; and the solicitors of the company are engaged in completing the investigation . of the titles .of the Grosmont and Llanvihangel tramroads, and, as soon as such titles are sati s f ac t or ily m ade out, those properties will also be conveyed to the company. This directors have concluded a working sgreemeet with the directors of the London and North-Wes• tern Company, the leading provisions of which are as follow:-1. When the Newport and Abergavenny and the Worcester :and Hereford Railways are complete for opening, the London and North- Western Company are to find all the necessary plant and to work the line of this company. 2. Out of the first gross earnings of the traffic for each half-year the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford Company is to receive 10 ,0001., plus the ordi nar y c h a rges for repairs, and watclaing the line, and all rates and taxes. 3. A . tier these payments, the usual wor ki ng ex p e n s es and intc rest on capital, employed in rolling stock, are to be paid to the London and North-Western Company out of the earnings. 4. The sarplus profits are to be divided in equal moieties between the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford Company and the London and North-Western Company. 5. This agreement is to commence from the period when the line from Worcester to Hereford shall be completed; the Bill for which is now before Parlia ment. The directors anticipate that the sum of 500,0001. will complete the line- ready for opening. The capital account to the 31st -December-last showed that 148.6051, had been received and 116,3651. expended, leaving a balance of 32,340/. The tramroads' revenue account for the half-year ending the 31st December showed that 9831. had been received and 388/. expended, leaving 595/. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said that the arrangement which had just been entered into with the London and North-Western Company was such as to far exceed his former anticipations of the pros pects of the undertaking. The conduct of the directors of the London and North-We' tern Company deserved their best thanks, as the arrangements mado by that company would enable the Abergavcnny Company to develop their tragic to an extent unknown at present. He congratulated the proprietors on the present position of the 'company, and adverted to the time when there were only three persons connected with the company who were not anxious to have it wound up, and they would recollect that ht was one of them. It was the in tention of the directors to make a call of 51. per share during the year, and when the borrowing powers of the company came into operation there would be no difficulty HI raising the further amount of capital required. Resolutions were passed adopting the report; voting 6001. a-year to the directors for their future services, and 500/. to five of the directors for their past services; rais ing the salary of the secretary to its former amount, namely 6001. a year; re-electing the retiring directors — viz., the Hon. W. E. Fitznaaurice, 311:jor Amsinck, Mr Budd, Mr. Reid, and Mr. Snow; and also re-electing Messrs. Rogers and Rose, the retiring auditors. The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the Chairman. A MBERGATE, NOTTINGHAM, AND BOSTON. The half yearly report of the directors to be sub mitted to the proprietors on Thursday states that the traffic for the past half-year shows a decided increase upon that of the two preceding ones, notwithstanding that the local excursion traffic has been seriously in terfered with by the allurements of the Great Exhibi tion. The receipts for the half-year ending the 31st of December last amounted to 9,195/, being an increase of 2,471/. over the corresponding period of 1850. The increase of traffic has necessitated a further supply of rolling stock, and the agricultural produce with which the district abounds has also demanded an extension; for it is notorious to all parties acquainted with the locality that the traffic has not been developed in con sequence of the company not having the means to re ceive or carry a largo amount of tra ffi c, which will come upon the line as proper facilities are afforded. The accounts for constructing the line bet ween Col wick and Grantham have been agreed an d settled;t e only liability being an acceptance under th e seal of th e cpnapany for 8,6001.. due in May. The directors re. commend that a dividend of is. per share, free of in come-tax, be declared. The directors have taken steps to dispose of the surplus lands. The forfeiture of 2,240 shares will be submitted for confirmation. The capi tal account to the Bth of February states that 625,8611, had been received and 623,9991. expended, leaving a balance. of 1,8261. The revenue account showed that 11,481/. had been received, and 4,208/. expended, leavin g a balance of 7,273/. . LOWESTOFT.

Mr. Thomas Eld Baker, the senior Churchwarden of St. Pancras, cccupied the chair, and among those on the platform were Lord Dudley Stuart, M.P., Sir B. Hall, Bart., M.P., Mr. Mowatt, M.P., Mr. John Williams, M.P., &c. TLC CHAIMIAN briefly opened the business by read ing the resolutions which were to be proposed, and ob served that he most cordially concurred in them, and thought at such a moment these assemblages of the people of the highest importance. Mr. BRETTINGHADI moved the first resolution:— " That in the opinion of this meeting the fall of the late Ministry is to be attributod to their want of political integrity,. and that without a complete and thorough re form and representation i n th e Commons House of Par liament there can be no pecurity for the pe o pl e or f or the sa f e ty or stability of the Throne." Now was their to toll that Governm ent that the peo 1e opportunity, before the Derby Mi nistry commenced o w p o e o n n e s ; p er submit to a re-imp os i t i on of the duty on u r l a d t i food.—(Gbeers.) Mr. MICHELL, of Marylebone, seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Mr. C. FREETZI moved the second resolution:— " That in the present state of public enlightenm en t and political knowledge, an extension of the suffrage t o a l l occupiers is imperatively called for. That the ballot is indispensably necessary. That triennial Parliardenta are absolutely required; and that small boroughs should be extinguished, and electoral districts arranged, so that population, intelligence, -and property, may be more equally represented." Mr. MANNING seconded this resolution, and deneuiced the projected Reform Bill introduced by Lord J. Russell as a perfect abortion. The resolution was then carried unanimously. Sir B. HALL, M.P., on presenting himself to the meet ing, was received with immense cheering. The Hon. Baronet proceeded to give an analysis of the Bill, which he said would have increased the electoral body by "halt a million, which was a movement in the right direction. The evils were-,that the franchise was too high; there was no ballot; the rate-paying clauses and the Septen nial Act were not abolished, and those miserable and despicable boroughs, to the number of thirteen,which had under the old Reform Bill been placed in Schedule A, had been reintroduced to the franchise.—(Hear, hear, and " Shame!") These 13 places numbered only 302 101.- houses, but they were to return 26 Members to Perlis ment.—(Shame.) They had now arrived at what was termed 'a Ministerial crisis. —(Hear, heer.) A new Ministry had been formed.—(Hear.) Would they like to hear the names of the new Ministry?—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) He could assure them his (Sir B. Hall's) name was not among them.—(Loud laughter and cheers.) The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Disraeli. —(Roars of laughter, and groans.) They ought not to laugh; it was a fact. Home-office, Mr. Walpole; Board of Trade, Mr. Henley; Foreign Affairs, the Earl of Malmesbury.—(Cries of " Who's he?") He was formerly Member for Christchurch, which he (Sir B. Hall) had designated as ono of the miserable and con temptible boroughs which ought to be in schedule A.— (Cheers.) Privy Seal, Lord Lyndhurst—(Groans)— Privy Council, Lord Lonsdale; Lord Chancellor, Sir E. Sugden—(Groans)—and Coloniele Pakington. The appointment to the Woods - and Forests was most cu rious—it was Lord J. Manners.—(Laughter.) It would be remembered that this gentleman started for the city of Landon, and Mr. 'tares Currie managed to rake up this poetical effusion of the Noble Lord, from which they might easily glean how much he was in favour of the peopl e :— - "Let laws and learning, wealth and commerce, die, " But God preserve our old nobility." (Roars of laughter.) Well, then, there was the Board of Control, Mr. Herries ; Admiralty, the Duke of Northumberland—(Laughter)—and the Post-office, Lord Hardwicke. . That was the Ministry which was now to govern us un fortunate people.—(A Voice, " Where's Sib tborp?" and roars of laughter.) Now he (Sir B. Hall) cared not whether a man was Whig, Radical, Tory. or Chartist; if he acted up to either of those opinions con scientiously he had a right to be respected ; but let him (the lion. Baronet) call their attention to one fact in reference to that man who was now to lead the House of Commons. Ia 1833 Mr. Benjamin Disraeli issued an address to the electors. socking to represent that bo rough, which address he (Sir B. Hall) would take care, when he next addressed the electors for Buckingham shire, should be printed side by side with his present ad dress in double columns, so that the electors of Buck- . --- inghamshire might " look on this picture and on that —(Tremendous cheering.) He (Sir B. Hall) had never done what that man bad. He had never endeavoured to set up the aristocrocy against the democracy, or to set up democracy against the aristocracy.—(Hear.) He had felt that the laws might be SO equitably framed as to secure an equal balance, but he called upon those as sembled to listen to what he was going to read, and they would then see the character of the man who was now about to lead the Commons of England and of the empire. In 1833 a pamphlet was published by Ridgway of Piccadilly, having the singularly a ppropriate title of Whit is he?"—(hear,hear.) W e ll , t h ey wou ld see what be was.—(llear, hear.) Listen—“lt is possible that the lories (let them mark the word) may imagine that there are two modes by which the aristocratic prin ciple may be restored. First, by force ; second]}, by a coalition between two aristocratic parties. Bat, be lieving that it is utterly impossible to restore the aristo cratic principle, and believing that unless some principle of action be infused into the Government, a convulsion must ensue, what are the easiest and most obvious methods by which the demccratic principle may be ma de predominant?"—(Hear, hear.) Then this man says—o• It would appear that the easiest and most ob vious methods are the instant repeal of the Septennial Act, the institution of election by ballot, and the im mediate dissolution of Parliament. I record here my solemn c onviction, and the result of my own unpreju diced meditation."—(llear, hear.) These were th e ') The Bon. words of this man in 1833, when ho was seeking th e representation of Marylebone; and now this same man goes down to Buckinghamshire upon the principle that the only thing to benefit the nation is to tax the food of for fifteen years, and, as the Now Chancellor of the B th a e rL e e ° t Pt he l r; (rerj,euerdedgrtOsull'is' a cro n n d n ' e ' xSiholurn:ilth the b orough Exchequer had once aspired to the honour of repre senting Maryleboce, he . sboold Ll.ke nothing- better than to meet him on the hustings.—( aughgteenrn-;adcm- admiration na - titohne ts on the Bib-- amL id osrtdwp hi t t Eß S i i ly r i, B sa .
