SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY. The crowded state of the room yesterday afternoon said little in favour of the attractions of the list at Newmarket : it was crowded until near seven o'clock, and business was the " order of the day." Coldrenick and Attila wore steady at the prices rooted below, the former with occasional backers until near six o'clock, when a Noble Lard checked the disposition to invest by a I offer of 1,000 to 400. Nothing of any consequence was dyne on the other under 4to 1, but at that figure two or three were willing to get on. Canadian and Auckland were stationary; not so two of Scott's non-favourites, Jack and Meteor; the inclination to back the first was general, and its effect on his position was shown in an improvement of six points compared with the latest quotations from Newmarket ; Meteor's party, if, more select, was strong enough to give him a decided lift. Lasso had a host of supporters at 25 and 20 to 1 ; the last bet was 2,000 to 100; and the layer would have gone on. Chatham was in force at 22 to 1, and at the finish would have been taken for choice against Lasso. We have guessed The Lord of Holderness at 18 to 1, which we take to be pretty near the mark : nothing was done outright about him. Tiptoe was quite out of the market. A few Oaks bets were made at the old prices. DESIST. 7 to 4 agsti,Scott's lat 5 to 2 agstllllr. Trelawny's r Coldrenick-srtaken and after wards offered 7 to 2 agst Col.

Plate A. F.—The Bizarre filly, with Joachim and the Re tainer colt in attendance, cut out the work to the Bushes-hill, is descending which the Retainer colt went in advance, fol lowed by Mountain Sylph ; this pair kept in front to the last half dozen strides, when Ma Mie went up with a rush, and won in a canter by two lengths. SUFFOLK STAKES—The Currier made play at a good pace, Rory O'More, Una, and the Devil-amongst-the-Tailors lying next, with Ralph and Bob Peel in the rear. Rory O'More de clined at the 'l'. Y. C. post, the second place being taken by the Devil-amongst-the-Tailors. The Currier maintained his . lead to the corner of the Plantations, where Bob Peel and Ralph went past him, and at the Hill singled themselves out to the finish. The struggle home was very close, Bob, without ever being fairly caught, winning by half a length with considerable difficulty. The Currier wars beaten four or five lengths, and the others were tailed off a long way from home. BETTING AFTER THE RACES.

The Ninth Annual General Meeting of Proprietors of the National Provincial Bank of England was held yesterday at the Company's Office, 112, Bishopsgate street. E NGLISII MINSTRELSY ON WHIT-MONDAY, MAY 16. Upon the motion of HENRY WAY:MOUTH, Esq., seconded by W. H. SHARP, Esq., JOHN MELviLtn, Esq. was crlled to the Chair. Sir G. LE1V1.7.: wished to be allowed to ask, before they proceeded with the general business of the meeting, when would be the most convenient time for him to call the attention of the Board of Directors and of the Share holders generally, to a 'circular letter which he believed had been sent- to each'fitiareholder. The CHAIRMAN suggested to the Hon. Proprietor that it would be more convenient to allow the business of the day to proceed, and that after the completion of it, he could call the attention of the meeting to the circular in question, if he was desirous of doing so. The advertisement calling the meeting having been read by the Secretary, The CHAIRMAN said t iat he would not detain - tlte. meeting by au y rent but would, with their permission, p • at on read the Report. The following Report was then read : " The occasion on which the Proprietors are now as sembled is that of the Company's Ninth Anniversary Meeting,. " It is with much satisfaction that the Directors are again enabled to meet the Proprietors with an announce ment of continued prosperity, notwithstanding another year of great monetary pressure and commercial distress. " Since the last general meeting the Directors have been.solicited by respectable and influential parties to open branches in various localities, but although much gratified with such proofs of public confidence, they have not deemed it expedient to extend the Company's ope rations, except to Shrewsbury and Dover. " The failure of a long established private bank, isi Shrewsbury, made an opening, of which the Directors were induced the more readily to avail themselves from having branches in the neighbourhood, and from a vo luntary promise of support having been made to them by several wealthy and influential inhabitants of the place. The Directors have much pleasure in stating that the branch thus opened at Shrewsbury has been attended with more than usual success. " Towards the close of last year, the favourable termination of a negotiation with the Dover Bank, placed the Company in possession of that highly-respectable concern, which had been car ried on for nearly a century and a half with such suc cess, as enabled Mr. Fector, its only surviving partner, to retire for the enjoyment of his ample fortune. The arrangement with him has been concluded upon advan tageous terms for the Company, and the Directors have much pleasure in stating that the valuable connection to which the Bank has thus succeeded has considerably in creased since the junction took place. " As regards the previously established branches, a steady and satisfwtory progress is being made, and in some places especially, which have suffered by the fail. ures of private banks, a considerable increase in the de posits has taken place ; a striking manifestation of the growing conviction in the public mind of the superior security which Joint Stock Banks afford. " Notwithstanding a general augmentation of the business and resources of the Company, the Directors have to state, what the meeting cannot be altogether unprepared to expect, that the adverse occurrences, dur ing the late unprecedented period of commercial diffi culty, which so seriously affected all classes of the trad ing community, have prevented that increase in the yearly profits, which, under more favourable circum stances the Directors would have to exhibit. " The Directors will not, however further anticipate the usual Statement of Accounts, which they now beg to submit to the meeting . Jan. 1, 1841. Amount of undivided s. d. profits at this date Dec. 31. Nett profits of 1841, after pay ment of all current expenses, a portion of preliminary expenses, and making allowance for bad and doubtful debts 30,330 17 0 At the MUSIC HALL, STORE -STREET, Mr. WILSON, will give an ENTERTAINMENT of ENGLISH SONG, in which he will sing :—" 'Twas Merry in the Hall."—"The British Grenadiers."—" A Cobbler there was."—" In the Spring time of the year."—" 0 wee: may the keel row."—" Sally in our alley."—" A hunting we will go." —" Away to the Maypole."—" The Vicar of Bray."—" 'The Old English Gentleman."—" Robin Hood and the Bishop." —" Blaek-eyed Susan."—" The Roast Beef of Old England." On WEDNESDAY MORNING, at the HANOVER SQUARE-ROOMS, a 'favourite Selection of SCOTCH SONGS. IT IS A PRINCELY DOMAIN, AND ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PROPERTIES 'IN THE MARKET. A man of rank, WHO WOULD REPRESENT THE COUNTY, and is inclined to field sports, will:find this a real godsend. The Castle is large and ancient, but the situation is quite irresistible, with a view to improve it, and render it adapted to a man of for. tune. The views arc perfectly beautiful—it is a sylvan panorama. The hills which ascend in gentle acclivity from the river, are clothed in full-grown Timber. it is seated in a beautiful valley, one of the most enchanting throughout South Wales, ON THE BANK OF THE WYE, and there are walks extending two miles, adorned by magnificent timber, THE ESTATE EXTENDS OVER SIX THOUSAND ACRES, of which there is near THREE HUNDRED ACRES OF LAWN AND RICH WATER MEADOWS. THE MANORS EXTEND TO TWENTY THOUSAND ACRES, independently of the domain, ut.connectsd with t'fi.estate, which is also well supplied with game throughout The I;bm:Sant shooting is famous, and the salmon fishing admirable, and there is a SHOOTIIsTG-BOX IN THE CENTRE. There are several small farms, and the home demesne connected with Langoed Castle may be estimated at 1,200 acres. The estate being chiefly grass is free from the Suctuatioß of corn, and the pre. sent rental is about FOUR THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED A YEAR. There are TWO A DVO MONS, within three miles of each other, giving additional value and con sequence to the purchase,which is altogether one of such importance that a Nabob will be fortunate in the possession of it. The Duke of Beaufort's moors adjoin this estate. Mr. Robins strongly recommends this little principality to his Friends and the Public, as a very sound investment—Covent garden. 110 YAL POL YTECHNIC INSTITUTION .

" The Directors who at this time go out of office by ratation are— Patrick Cruikshank, Esq., C. Henton Ellis, Esq., H. Twiss, Esq. ; all of whom are eligible to be re-elected, and offer them selves accordingly. " The death of Philip Courtenay, Esq., and the re tirement of Joshua Scholefield and Archibald Hastie, Esqs., have left three vacancies in the Direction, to sup ply which the following gentlemen, all qualified Pro prietors, and who have given the necessary notice, offer themselves as Candidates, viz.— Walter Bentinck, Esq., George Hyde, Esq., George Lynch, Esq." Mr. STEWART said that after the statement which had been just made they all had cause to feel deeply grateful to the Directors who, at a time of distress unprecedented in the annals of commercial transactions, had maintained the position of the Bank in a state of prosperity that must be satisfactory to all.—(Cheers.) He believed that never, at any period, had there been a greater de gree of commercial distress than at the present ; yet, not withstanding all this, the Bank had gone steadily onward in its successful career. He did not know that he need make another observation to in duce the meeting to adopt the Report, but he could not sit down without directing the attention of the meeting to one observation made in the Report, in the truth of which, seeing the source from which it had emanated, he bad the utmost confidence. It was stated there that the Bank had never been in a more solid or prosperous condition than at the present moment. That observation struck him forcibly, and served to show the skill, the energy, and the prudence, with which the affairs of the Bank h a d be en conducted! —(Cheers.) He begged to move that the Report be received, a dopt e d, aNdprinted for the use of the Proprietors. Mr. HicliErrs seconded the resolution. At a time of unexampled pressure in - the money market, they had been enabled to increase their.rest fund by nearly 6,000/. Every gentleman 'present must be aware of the great effect which the present - state of commercial distress had produced on the money market. He had for thirty six years been engaged in money transactions, and never during that period had so disastrous a year rolled over the monetary market as the year 1841. The Directors must have managed with great care, prudence, and skill to have maintained their resent position, and he thought the thanks of the Proprietors were eminently due to them. No one ac quainted with the state of the money market could avoid admitting that the Directors must have exhibited great care to have avoided disasters as they had done. With out wishing to interfere. in the least in the management, he - would :bike' lett're t 6 offer the suggestion to the exe cutive, that - Whetiefer the Directors might think it ne cessary that ,the capital of the Company should be in creased, they should do so at the time most proper, and in the manner that should seem to them most fitting.---(Hear.) He thought that whenever the Di rectors should feel authorised to make a further call, while they managed the concerns of the Company as they did at present, that call would be obeyed. An lIGN. PROPRIETOR—It had not been his intention to offer any observation, had it not been for a remark which had fallen from the gentleman who had just sat down. He did not anticipate that there would be any necessity for an increase of their capital. If any one thing more than another had conduced to their prospe rity, it was the steady method in which their business had been conducted, and he trusted they would not in volve themselves in any new concerns without using great caution. The motion was then put, and declared by the Chair man to be carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN said the next portion of the business was the filling up the vacancies in the direction occa sioned by the Directors going out by rotation. The Directors going out of office were P. Cruickshank, Esq., C. E. Ellis, Esq., and Horace Twiss, Esq. Those gentle men were capable of re-election, and offered themselves for re-election accordingly. P. Cruickshank, Esq., C. E. Ellis, Esq., and H. Twiss, Esq., were then unanimously re-elected Directors. Mr. HORACE Twxss, on the part of his colleagues and himself, returned his most cordial thanks to the Pro prietors for the confidence which they had again reposed in them, and assured them that it would be their en deavour by their services to give them satisfaction. The CHAIRMAN said it now became their duty to fill the vacancies in the Directorship occasioned by the death of Mr. Courtenay, and the retirement of Mr. Hastie and Mr. Scholefield. Mr. C. E. Exam said that Mr. Tw•iss had just returned thanks for himself and those who with him had been re-elected to the direction of their affairs. He had now to propose a new candidate for their suffrages, Walter Bentinck. Esq., of Gloucester-place, Portman square. He had long felt a deep interest in the pros perity of the Bank. He had not only taken a great number of shares himself, and induced several members of his tamily to do the same, but he had shown the con fidence he reposed in them by nominating them as trus tees for those who were most dear to him—his wife and children, thus showing that he looked forward to the growing prosp(rity of the establishment. He had been brought up in habits of business, and had been for many years a Member of the Council and Auditor at the Cape of Good Hope. lie thought it would be for the benefit T. LAMIE.

The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is consistent with perfect security. One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders ; three-fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of the succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen contingencies. The first division of profits took place on the 13th of May, 1840, when a reduction of 60 per Cent. was declared on the current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti cipation. Tho second division of profits was in May, 1841, when a similar reduction was again declared.

S. and Co. take the liberty of reminding their friends and the pubic that the above Cele brated Water continues to be manufactured on the largest scale and upon the most scientific principles at their chief es tablishment, 51, Berners-street, London ; and also at their three branch Manufactories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby ; and that consumers may be supplied with the genuine article at most of the respectable Chemists, Confectioners, and Italian Warehou,es in every province of the United Kingdom. The just reputation of their manufacture, and the consequent de. timid for it, have tempted unprincipled persons (many of them of apparent respectability) to practice a deception, against which Schweppe and Co. are anxious to caution the public. The deception referred to is that of. passing off a spurious article for " Schweppe's," by selling it in Sch weppe ' s mar k e d bottl•2s. The temptation to this is, the cheapne ss o f t h e infe rior water, although in most cases the consumer i s c h arge d th e same. By this artifice a common water is surrept i t i ous l y palmed upon the public for the genuine—the rep utat i on o f t h e Royal Appointment latter is prejudiced by the supblasiiitouft.lopniaconif placing a ba i d te a ( r i ti L cl a e b — el an o d ve a r I:l4 fi t r i m ie on and Co. refer with certain proportion of the public patronage diverted from its ]ultimate channel.

Merchants and Shippers in general connected w i t h t h e East and West Indies and our numerous .Colonies are co n ti nua lly transmitting orders received from their respective ag en t s an d correspondents, and highly gratifying is the testimony Schweppe and Co. are in the habit of receiving from gentle men returned from abroad, of the luxury afforded th em by t h e i r Soda Water when met within tropical climates, and of the high condition in which it is generally found. The Water ordered for foreign countries is manufactured with an express reference to its destination, and it is well known that no other can equally well endure the variations of climate. Schweppe's Lemonade is an elegant preparation of more recent introd uct i on, b u t f rom its refreshing and i wholesome properties s rapidly getting into it extensive reputation: It is an effervescing draught o f most agreeable flavour, and made of the best materials, constantly wit ee ho r ut o r m e : m ga e r i ci , d o it co ir s i t. ca s le'shyosficfieaynesr,ans,de.m, nor edicalis nt less d es i ra bl e a s an article of luxury.

On SATURDAY, the 14th of May, will be published, No. 1, of a New Weekly Newspaper, entitled the ILLUSTRA TED LONDON NEWS, price 6d. stamped, containing 30 engravings every week, from designs by eminent Artists, being pictorial representations ( f the most interes t ing e v ents of the day, in addition to 48 columns of news. The object of this publication is not merely to register the current events of in terest at home, to give lengthened details of occurrences abroad, but to heighten the one and make clear the other by the in troduction of pictorial representations of the scenes described. Calling in the aid of pencil to depict that which can only be but partially accomplished by the pen, we are but following the text of a learned writer, who has said that " we can convey to the mind by means of a picture those circumstances of relative situation, and peculiar interest, that no written description could ever achieve, but which the pencil must at all times materially enhance." The war in Affghanistan, the sad defeats and suf ferings of the British Army, and we hope its also glorious tri umphs, will open a wide field for pictorial representation, and our artists will not fail in their task. Foreign circumstances, however, are but a slight feature in our gallery--the realities of London life, the physiognomy of its police courts, its theatres, exhibitions, public amusements, its out-door society, its daily in • creasing public buildings, its works of art—all that has the charm of novelty will be brought before the reader in a pictured form, and will give to the country resident that exact impression of London progress which no other Journal, by description alone can convey. Correspondences have been opened in each of our provincial towns to insure a quick transit of illustrations of all matters of interest. Racing and sporting scenes, rowing and sailing matches, military reviews, public festivals, cattle shows, and other agricultural assemblies, will be reported with the pencil as well as by the pen ; while, for the particular en tertainment of our fair countrywomen, engravings of the fashions, gardening, fancy needlework, sket c h es o f p u bli c b a ll s and concerts, will be from time to time provided. A vigorous tone will be adopted in politics, freed at the same time from all party views. Arrangements are made for giving with more than usual effect the fullest and latest reports of the Parlia mentary debates, public meetings, police intelligence, theatrical information, &c. Critical reviews will be given of all British and Foreign literary publications of sterling interest.

The following letter gives some important informa ;lon on the probable working of the lneome-tax : Bryanstone-square, May 7, 1842. My Dear Sir,--11 the newspapers would report she conversations that pass in the Committee on the [ncome-tax Bill, you would have had explanations of :he questions you put to me. Ist—lf A. B has 501. of income from the rent of a house (the tax being first paid and then deducted by the tenant), and if he has 1001. of profit from trade, he must return his aggregate income at 1501., and pay the tax on 1001. himself. If he should he charged for 1501., he will set off the 501. paid by the tenant. 2d—Suppose the amount of 1501. arises thus :- 1. From the Three per Cents., £5O 2. From Bank shares 5O £l5O 3. From land 2O 4. From interest of money 3O The first tax will be deducted at the Bank of England, the second by the Banking Company, the third by the tenant, and the fourth by the person who has bor rowed the money; so that, in this case, the party will not, in {het, pay any tax himself; it will, however, be deducted from his income. 3d. All annuities of 101., or of any amount, will be deducted by the officers paying: them ; and if the re cipient of the annuities has not in the aggregate, from all sources, an income . of 1501., he will get a certifi cate, from the Commissioners, of the amount deducted from his annuity, interest, stocks, and from every other source, which will enable him to get back the amount deducted. The inquisitorial powers, the trouble and annoyance, are beyond conception, unless you look at the Bill. I thought it bad, but the evils far exceed my very worst anticipations of the matter. The tax on annuities, on trading and professional in comes, &c., is so unequal and unjust, that I did not think it possible a House of Commons, in this day, could have been got to support it, especially for 3 per cent. As far as the tax_ is confined to lands and houses, the valuation for poor's-rates, already existing, would have been sufficient, without any new inquisition ; but, for traders, merchants, and professional men, it is very different; and it is so contrived that, in effect, the capital, and not the interest of the capital, is to be charged. This is a most serious grievance. Such an unequal tax is unworthy even of the landed gen tlemen's Parliament. You will see by last night's proceedine the result of two divisions I took. One was to estunate the in come to be taxed according to that of last year, and not according to the average of the three past years. It was supported only by 27, and opposed by 76, thus showing only 103 out of 658 Members to attend to so important a Bill, and only 27 to support a propo sal so just and so reasonable. The profits of trade, in every branch, have been gradually declining during each of the three years. In this current year, there will be many cases in which there will be no income, and even a positive loss ; and yet the House of Corn mons affirms that the average of the three years' profit is to be the rule. In the same manner you will see that only 52 Members at a late House, supported my motion for limiting the tax to one year, whilst 174 voted for the three years ! Thus the affairs of the nation are left to the few. I have got a clause put into the Bill to protect all charitable funds which were not properly protected, especially in Scotland. You will see such a Bill— with such extraordinary powers—as will surprise you. But the people appear to be quite supine, and ready to submit to anything that may be proposed. After the exposures of bribery of last night in the House, I see no hopes but in the complete Reform as proposed in the plan I sent you.—Believe me, &c., JOSEPH HUME. D. APLaxen, Esq., Edinburgh. PUBLIC EXECUTION AT BRUGES, MAY 11.—This day, at noon, there was a public execution, by the guillotine, of a criminal who had murdered his wife after three' horrib'e attempts which barl previously failed. In his confession, he avowed having murdered also his first wife and another woman. He is said to be deranged. As there had been no execution in this town for 35 y ea rs, the spectacle created imuch interest and a general disgust at the punishment of death. Masters of fa milks almost universally ordered all their servants to keep in doors tia the bloody spectacle was over, ~2-~ C~~ //2 ~z t/ ~~ / 4 „_c, of the Bank that Walter Bentinck, Esq., should have a seat at the, Board of Directors, and he beaded to pro pose him aectirditigly. The CHAIRMAN seconded the nomination, and Mr. Bentinck was unanimously elected: Mr. Slieer had the honour to propose George Hyde, Esq., of Lord-terrace, Dorset-square, as one of their Di rectors. That gentleman had made his Own fortune, and knew how to take care of it.. He was a gentleman of great activity and ability, and he (Mr. Sharpe) could confidently recommend him to the Proprietors for their support ; if he were elected to the vacant seat, he was certain the Company would benefit by his exertions. The motion having been seconded, George Hyde, . Esq., was unanimously elected fs Director. . Mr. GORDON Durr said there still remained one vacancy to be filled, and he had great pleasure in proposing for that - vacant office a gentleman who had considerable experi ence in mercantile affairs, but who was now retired from business, and who would be more able to protect their nterests, perhaps, from that very circumstance. The gentleman lie was about to propose was George Lynch, Esq.. who resided near Acton. He (Mr. Duff) had known that gentleman for more than thirty years, and throughout his life had always enjoyed his friendship. had spoken of his habits of business, and having known him throughout his life he was not eat are of a single mistake that that gentleman had ever com mitted. He was an extremely fortunate man, and not the least part of his good fortune, was that he had retired from business at a time when, if others 'led done the same, they would have been much better off than they were at present.—(Cheers and laughter.) Mr. Lynch was unoccupied by business, and had taken a great in terest in the prosperity of the Bank from its commence ment, and was one of the largest Shareholders on their books. He thus showed his confidence in, and his good will towards, the Institution, and had the means of benefiting it, not only by his own personal exertions, but-by his interest among his friends. H e h a d great pleasure in proposing it George Lynch, Esq., be elected one of the Directors. THOMAS WILSON, Esq., having seconded the nomi nation, George Lynch, Esq., was unanimously elected. Mr. LYNCH returned the Proprietors his sincere thanks for the trust they had confided to him, and he could assure them he would use his best endeavours and exertions in entering upon the duties of his office, to follow out that cautious and prudent course of proceed, ing, by the adoption of which the present Directors had brought the Bank to its present state of prosperity. He considered that the Company deserved to attain the highest possible prosperity, and doubted not that it would rank first among the most valuable institutions of the country.—(Hear, hear.) No exertions should be wanting on his part to promote, by every means in his power, the prosperity of the National Provincial Bank of England.—(Cheers.) Sir G. LEWIN was extremely happy to find that the Directors had, throughout their proceedings, abstained from alluding to a circular letter, signed " T. Joplin," which he, in common with every other Share holder of the Company, . had received. Who tho writer might be he knew not, but he had road the letter with feelings of unqualified dis gust. He had replied to that letter, and in his reply had stated pretty freely to Mr. Joplin what was his opinion of his (Mr. Joplin's) conduct. He was glad the Directors had not alluded to it in any manner, but ho thought it his duty as a Shareholder to :aide to it, and he should move three resolutions : " 1. That Mr. Joplin has no claims whatever on the funds of the Company, and that the Directors be in structed to resist any claims that he may think proper to make. " 2. That the Directors enjoy the unshaken confidence of the Proprietors."—(Cheers.) And he would move, as a "3d ResAution, That the thanks of the Proprietors be returned to the Directors, for the manner in which they have conducted the business of the Company since the last Meeting." They had his (Sir G. Lewin's) entire confidence, and that confidence had been increased by their conduct in paying no attention to the improper, unfounded, he might say impudent, claim of Mr. Joplin. Captain WARREN seconded the resolutions. Mr. Joplin had received 1,500/. some years ago in full satisfaction of any claims he might have had, besides a considerable sum for expenses, and there was no pretence whatever for his making any further demand on the Company. Mr. BROWN said that Mr. Joplin, on the 18th of July, 1834, had accepted 1,500/. as a full remuneration for his services. Mr. Joplin was not the author of the principle of Joint-Stock Banks • it had been carried out in Ireland long before Mr. Jopin's time. Besides the principle which Mr. Joplin advocated with regard to coun try • banks was incapable of being carried out. He vas satisfied that Mr. Joplin had no claim on the Company, and he would support the resolutions. His circular well deserved the condemnatory remarks of a previous speaker. The CHAIRMAN said it was most Satisfactory to the Directors, and himself personally, to have heard the sen timents which had been spoken by the different gentle men. It was their anxious wish that every circumstance with respect to Mr. Joplin should be passed over sub silentio. All that gentleman's fair claims had been set tled long ago. An Itox.-Pnorniaron had read an advertisement, stating that the Directors had refused to allow any shares to lie transferred to Mr. Joplin's name, and that that had prevented him attending the meeting. lie thought that the Directors had shown great judgment and dis cretion in doing so. The resolutions were then put seriatim, and carried unanimously. The CIIAIRMAN,.OII the part of his brother Directors and himself, cordially thanked the meeting for the good opinion they had expressed, and could assure them that no effort would be spared, and no opportunity lost, to further their interests. Mr. BROWN thought that thanks were also due to those who had the managt ment of the executive department, for their zeal, energy, and assiduity. He therefore pro posed that the thanks of the Proprietors should be given to D. Robertson, Esq., the Manager, and the other' officers of the Bank, for their very efficient services. The resolution baring been seconded was put and car ried by acclamation. Mr. ROBERTSON, on behalf of the officers of the establishment, begged to return his sincere thanks for this new mark of the confidence of the Proprietors, which would not be without its proper influence on their exertions.—(Hear, hear.) The officers felt as anxious as the Proprietors themselves for the prosperity of the Bank, and it was gratifying to them, as the practical superintendents, to know, that with a good harvest or two, and a more sound and active state of trade, it pos sessed the means of producing the most profitable re's ul ts.—(Hear.) The meeting then separated. T HI.E tg NATIONAL PETITION"- MR. T. DUNCOMBE. We have been requested to give insertion to the following correspondence : Convention Room. P.eck'• Hotel, Fleet-street. Sir,—The Members of the National Convention of the In dustrious Classes of Great Britain unanimously tender you their most cordial thanks for the patriotic manner in which you have discharged your duties in Parliament, to the working classes , and more particularly do they express their high estimation of your services, speeches, arid motions, in reference to the Great National Petition, signed by three millions and a half of people. in the presentation of which your arguments as a speaker, your consistency as a man, and your zeal as a tried and trusted friend of the disfranchised, have richly merited, and do now receive, their individual and collective approbation. (Signed) A BRAM DUNCAN, Chairman. T. S. buncombe, Esq., M.P. The Albany, May 9, 1842. Sir,—l beg to assure you, that it is a source of no inconsi derable gratification to me, to learn that my conduct, on the presentation of a petition signed by nearly three millions and half of my tellow-subjects, as well as my endeavours to obtain for these petitioners a hearing at the bar of the House of Com mons, has met with the unanimous approbation of the National Convention, representing, as that body does, the industrious classes of this country. In acknowledging this flattering testi mony of public approbation, I eannot refrain from expressing the pain and mortification that I experienced at the course which the House of Commons pursued upon the occasion re ferred to; instead of that assembly allowing the working classes to explain their own views, I witnessed not only their wrongs unheeded, their statements discredited, their objects perverted, their motives misrepresented, their characters maligned, but their respect ful prayer contumaciously rejected. If _any practical proof were before wanting of the necessity of a radical change in our representative system, I think the manner in which the uner.franchised millions, the sons of toil and'industry were treated en Tuesday last, has amply supplied that proof. _ _ Concurring, therefore, as I do, with the petitioners, that the peace of the empire, the security of property, and the prospe rity of commerce, can only be permanently secured by the House of Commons being identified with the people, I trust the day is not far distant when that House shall become in prac tice, as well as in name, " The People's House ;" and so far as the huinblo exertions of an individual like myself can pro mote that object, those whom the National Convention repre sent may at all times rely upon my assistance, and command my cordial co-operation.—l have the honour, Ike- Mr. A. Duncan. , THOS. S. DIiNCOMBE. ' ,- e 3e.- z . . e . PRICE OF PROVISIONS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. S . lll,—My attention has been drawn, by the statemb:nt of j our Correspondent at Fisliguard, in The Sun of the 7th' inst., and in the Welshman of the previous week, to the low price of provisions in Carmarthen, and several towns of Pembrokeshire. I wish I could make the same statement with respect to this town and neighbourhood, but Neath is considered one of the dearest markets in the Principality for provisions, beef and mutton being at the present time from 7d. to 9d. per lb. ; veal, sd. to 7d. ; pork, 6d. to Bd. ; fresh butter, ls., and ls. hi. ; and potatoes, 4s. 6d. per cwt. Should you be able, through the medium of your widely-circulated paper, to call the attention of your Agricultural friends in Pem brokeshire and Carmarthenshire to the state of this mar ket, I am quite sure they would find it to their advan tage to send some of their produce here, and you would receive the'gratitude of the public at large for doing so. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant and subscriber, Neath, Maff - 10. D. M. In the night of the 29 th ult., as four men were em ployed ofmPtying the cess-pool of a h ouse at S assenage, i n them went down t o expe di te the business, but tthe Isere, i n on the mephitic vapour overcame him, and he fell senseless. The effect was seen by the three others, a father and two sons, all of whom went down in succession in hope of affording relief to each other, but they were equally affected, and must have perished, but for the cries of a boy who had charge of the horses of the night-cart, and saw what had happened. Michel Pey rardi a servant of the house, hastened to the spot, and, divesting himself of his clothes, went down, and succeeded in bringing three of the senseless bodies to the surface. With these exer, tions Michel became nearly exhausted, but waiting only a few minutes to recover his strength, and further assistance having arrived, he fastened a card round his body and descended a fourth time, and was drawn up with the remaining sufferer in hi 4 arms. Medical ri d was by this time at hand, and through judicious treatment all the four men, and Michel himself, who was in an almost equally bad state, were recovered. The Mayor of Sassenage has made a repert of his heroic conduct to the higher authorities, and Michel, whose - means are very humble, will no doubt receive an adequate reward. m. 141 - - - . , ••" ,, ..al 11,,F11.41.1, 11l I,IIG Vll4/1. i ll t i e : 11 jititiex (131ftolsulirgsteSTEWARDS. ,:rpitah o; [ t Bec h e r,ecl, R.N. srl., M.P. ;. „ arqui s of Westminster A.
