Resolved,---That from the very clear view taken by Mr. Jessop, of the advantages to be derived from the proposed mea sure, and the satisfactory explanations given in his Report as to the facility and economy of conveyance by Railways, the Meet ing is fully convinced that the proposed Railway will be deci dedly the best mode of communication between the two Canals, and productive of advantages not to be attained by any other means, and therefore strongly recommend the scheme to the support of the public. It appearing from the estimate that the sum of 130,0001. is necessary to complete the Railway, and a further sum of 20,000/. for Steam Engines, and that about 70,0001. is already subscribed in Shares of 100/. by the Noblemen, Gentlemen and Landowners in the immediate neighbourhood of the proposed Railway ; Resolved,—That the Subscription be now open to the public in general, and that Subscriptions be received at the Banking.. house of Sir Peter Pole, Bart. and Co., Messr s .

THE elevated and distinguished position of this Country was probably . never more visible than ill the present :period. The commercial prosperity of almost every Town and District in the Kingdom, and the plans now in con templation to facilitate and increase trade and manufactures, must be so apparent to every observer, that to particularise, is .unnecessay. Among the most important is, that Grand Improvement, the LOCOMOTIVE STEAM-ENGINE, for the convey ance of Passengers and Merchandise on a Rail-road; by means of this power, a Company will be enabled to transport the heaviest ; goods with certainty and security, .by day and•night, at all times of the year ; in periods 'of 'frost or of drought, at the rate of at least eight miles an hour, and passengers at the rate of twelve. The Capital required to complete the object in view, and the current charges for the maintenance of a Rail-Road and Loco. motive Power, being much less than that employed by any ex isting mrana for conveyance, will enable a Company to carry goods and Passengers at a rate less" by one third, probably by One Half, than the sum paid at present. These ate not specu lative or visionary assertions ;—they are founded on facts, col. 'Wed by en examination of the system of carriage by Rail. Roads, actually practised in the North of England. • From the surveys and estimates of the intended Manchester and Liverpool, and Stroud anti Severn Mail-!toads, it appears that the cost for a main road Fifteen feet wide, including land, &c. is about 2,0001. per mile but as the travelling and traffic from Bristol to Bath is calculated to be greater for the same dis. tance that any like establishment in the Kingdom, it will be advisable to make the Main Road Sixty Feet Wide; which, including machines, trams, and every other charge, will come under or about 0,0001. per mile. It is the opinion of an eminent Surveyor, that the whole line required for the Main Road from Bristol to Bath, will not ex reed Twelve Miles; the costs whereof, including Collateral Branches to the Principal Colleries, may be taken In round numbers, at about One Hundred Thousand Pounds. The number of Coal Pits in the vicinity, and near the line of the intended Rail-Road, and the facility and celerity of conveying mercantile and agricultural produce to and from each City, (in the space One flour anti Half) the reduced rates, and the unde. viating punctuality anti security of Rail-Roads upon the im proved system, will inevitably insure to itself sufficient traffic, (independent o f the carriag es for c onveying passen g ers) to allind a liberal remunerating profit to those embarked in it; at the same time that it will create a competition highly advantageous to the public, and be to the shipping interest of Bristol of the highest importance, by the eventual extension of the system to the manufacturing and clothing districts contiguous to this Pod. . . _ A Committee will be immediately appointed to order Sur. veys and Estimates, and lay the same before a General Meet ing of Subscribers. looks are now open at the Banks of Alessm Stuckeys, Lean, and Co., and Messrs.

To T. TAYLOR, Esq. No. 9, New Bridge-street, London. HoNounen r BEG leave to inform you, that ever since the I year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal, which, fi um its obstinatelyresisting every course of medicine prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear lo be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period to my existence--I had a large ulcer un the crown of my head, on e emeach arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a stets of ulceration for the last seven years; my left had also two large noilesAni it, was very much discooured, and gave we uch excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed. as nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable .tats, was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which I began to do on the 26th o. Ntay ; in the course of. a fortnight I begin) to receive benefit—in little mare than a month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly bealtd— soon alter, tha sores ow my legs healed also; leaving, how. c „,,,daerablediscolouration in the skin, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little !tower petseverance in your invaluable Medicine, suhstded the nodes tliapersing, the skin regaining its natural hoc, and the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by yo r liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my former complaints—have covered my former spirits and strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew aiu at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every occa sion ; so doing you will reatly oblige, Sir, your grateful, o bedient, very umbl e servant, ALEX.
