Jonathan Hopkinson, Esq. Thomas Wyse, Esq., M.P. SOLICITOR.—SamueI Amory, Esq. It is unnecessary to advance arguments as to the expediency of establishing this great National Bank. Existing circum stances will suggest the strongest. The object is to unite all that is sound in the system of Joint-stock Banking, with all that is respectable in the system of private Banking, and at the same time to avoid the errors anti evils of both. Shares of One Thousand Pounds each, with 5001. to be paid up, will prevent an admixture of speculative adventures with opulent capitalists. The Joint-stock system of Banking to be sound as a whole should be sound in each of its parts. The Royal Bank of Liverpool hasbccn formed upon the same Principle—in the brief period of three years its shares have ars i l'ael at a premium ofabout 50 percent. London must be a better geld for such a system than Liverpool. The Commercial Bank of London is capable of being the great focus of the Joint-stock Banks of the whole kingdom. The Commercial Bank of London combines these important advantages—via., a large capital, permanent responsibility , and uniformity in the system of management ; thus securing that acknowledged desideratum, a guarantee that the capital of the Bank shall not be withdrawn, nor its efficient action impaired by the death or retirement of co-partners. The Commercial Bank of London has been founded as a Bank of Deposit for making advances by loan or otherwise, and More especially as a point of concentration for such Provincial Joint-stock and other country Banks as conduct their business on sound banking principles. Three Managers will be appointed. The qualification of each to be a long previous experience in the banking or discounting of London, by which the knowledge, decision, and secrecy of a private bank will be added to the superior solidity of a sound joint-stock system. Interest on deposits will be allowed on special agreement Only, no-Bank not having the advantag e of issuing its • own paper -ean with safety grant interest on floating deposits or on current accounts; but while recognising security as the legiti mate basis of every banking transaction, the Directors will be desirous at all times, but especially in periods of financial pre - sure, to meet the just demands of every class of society, corn- Mercial, manufacturing, and agricultural. Ten per cent. will be required to be paid on the allotment of the Shares, and such further calls made as may be necessary , by instalments not exceeding 10 per cent., of which three Months' notice will be,given by public advertisement, but not • I ,, thao b 0 per cunt. of the subscribed capital will be called • withdut the concurrence of three-fourths in value of the r a oprietors at a General Meeting to be held for that purpose. ts order. to limit the responsibility of the Subscribers, it is Mended to provide by the deed of settle m ent, that in the event of one-third of the paid up capital being lost, it shall be corn rlsory on' the Board of Direct ors to convene a meetin g of the roprietors, and with this concurrence of a majority in value, o dissolve the Company. It is intended to establish a Branch at the West-end of the Metropolis, but at no other place. A General Alerting of the Proprietors will be held annually, when a statement of the affairs of the B ank win be laid before them. Applications for Prospectuses, or for Shares, to be made to the Solicitor, at 25, Throgmorton-street ; Messrs. Smith and Kinnear, George-street, Edinburgh ; to i\lr. Buchanan and Aitkin, Glasgow ; Messrs. Blandshard and Richardson, York ; Messrs. Baines and Newsom, Leeds ; William Islam, Esq., Solicitor, Liverpool; the Royal Bank of Liverpool; and to Messrs.

SIGHT AND HEARING. THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists to the Royal Family, 39, Albe marle-street, Piccadilly, by which thousands of deaf persons have Leen greatly benefited, is the size of a seven-shilling piece, and when fixed into the cavity of the car is soft and easy, and not more percep t .' tible than having a piece of wool i n its p lace, by which the faintes whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defec tive VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly.invented SPECTACLE LENSES : immediately they are placed before weak and imperfect eyesight, either by day or candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with great distinctness, by the use of which both the sight and hearing become much improved. The Messrs. SoLOMONS DISCLAIM all connection with persons of the SAME NAME, and the sale of Amber Spectacles : in doing so they state the HISTORY of AMBER, from the Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, M.D., F.R.S., &c. &c. Amber is an indurated vegetable ju ce, and not produced by the laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to such an extent as to explode into fragments ; the workmen, too, are subject to nervous tremours in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they en counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics ; Amber grows, with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a .soft nature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with flame... The above Dr. Ore's statements are further confirmed by Sir D BREWSTER and Pliny, as also by Parks and Heny on Chemistry. Thedestruc t iv e effects of such a material for Spectacles, to imperfect vision, are fully and most • satisfactorily explained in Messrs. Curtis and Dollond's Second Edition on the Preservation of Sight, and may be ascertained at any respectable Opticians in London. The Messrs Solomons newly-invented Spectacle Lenses are not constructed of such a material ; but which are very superior, and Nang back at once slimness of sight and imperfect vision to its Original and a n state ; these Spectacles, and very small Voile Conductors for Deaf persons, are only to be had at their Establish ment, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York Hotel. NO TRAVELLERS ARE EMPLOYED. No. 52. GREAT RUSSELL-STREET , BLOOMSBURY, and 9 ,H AL F MOON-STREFI, PICCADILLY MINERALFILLING DECAYED S C CE S EUM T T EETH.

They have also discovered a NEW COMPOSITION for ARTIFICIAL TEETH. A peculiar advantage attending TEETH made Gem this SUBSTANCE is, that they are totally impervious to acids. ARTIFICIAL TEETH hav e hitherto bew found ob jectionable by INVALIDS taking MEDICINES which have a ten b j o e u e s t o hates. dency to DISCOLOUR t hem, and by perso Messrs.

Edward Baldwin, Temporary Office, Guildhall Coffee-house, King-street, Cheap- side, Ebndon It is admitted in Great Britain, and known to be but too true by all who have had personal experience of the real state of India, that although a commercial intercourse has existed between the British Isles and India, for more than two hundred years, and the Government of this Empire now rules over a hundred mil lions of the inhabitants of the East, there is, nevertheless, a general want of inforn...f;",, atralrs, and an almost . - total indifference felt respecting them. it must be obvious to all who reflect upon those facts, that such a state of things con trasts strangely with the duty we owe to our distant dominions, with the extent, the value, and the importance of our East Indian Possessions, and with the many and vast interests in volved in the question. British India is an Empire as large as Europe (exclusive of Russia), with a population, including tributary States, of more than one hundred and fifty millions. Over this Empire and People, a sway is exercised wholly British ; and consequently, the want of an accurate knowledge of Indian affairs, and the absence of a proper interest in the public at large for the wel fare of the natives, must operate prejudicially upon their minds, since they cannot but feel that their destinies are in fluenced by the disposition manifested towards them in the parent country. From the perusal of a variety of official and other doesments of recent date, it appears that ignorance, poverty, crime, and disaffection, prevail to a distressing and alarming extent throughout the British Indian Territories. It also appears, that during the last twenty years, though a period of profound peace, there has been a succession of famines of the most deso lating description. It has been estimated that the famine of 1837-3 S, in the Upper Provinces of Bengal, swept off more than half a million of the inhabitants. Famines are this vear ravaging the Northern Provinces of Bombay and Madras. These calamitous events are rendered the more mysterious and affect ing, when viewed in connexion with the statement, that the soil of India is a soil of unequalled fertility, and that a very large portion of it (by some authorities, computed at one half) lies uncultivated, and covered with jungle, the haunts of wild beasts. Information on these subjects has, within the last few months, been laid before the public in various parts of the Kingdom. The result has been, a deep feeling of compassion in the minds of many humane and influential persons, and the formation of Associations for promoting the welfare of the natives of India, in Sheffield, Glasgow, Ness - castle-upon-Tyne, Edinburgh, Darlington, &c. A strong feeling has, besides, been expressed for the establishment of a Metropolitan Society for the same object ; by whose inquiries and efforts, the friends of India, throughout Great Britain, might be guided and assisted in this new and benevolent undertaking. In consequence of these circumstances, and in accordance also with their own deep feeling of interest in the subject, the individuals whose names are attached to this Prospectus, have, after mature deliberation, resolved themselves into a Provi sional Committee, for forming a Society, to be designated the " BRITISH INDIA SOCIETY, for bettering the condition of our fellow-subjects—the Natives of British India." In making known this resolution to the public, the Corns mittee consider it their duty to state very briefly, but distinctly, their motives and plans. The Committee has its origin in a regard for the welfare of the natives of India, who, owing allegiance to the Government, are entitled to lookforsyrnpathy and succour from the people of England. The Committee desire to found the proposed So ciety upon the strictest principles of justice and humanity — upon a basis which will permanently exclude the adoption of party, of sectarian, or mercenary views. They contemplate the use of those means only which are moral, peaceful and consti tutional. They would suggest, and labour to secure, the delay of all specific plans of amelioration, until every doubt respecting the nature and extent of alleged existing evils, and the neces sity of remedying them, is entirely removed. The primary duty of a BRITISH INDIA SOCIETY would therefore be—to obtain from every available source authentic and impartial information respecting the present actual condi tion of the natives of India and the circumstances of the coun try, and to give to the inform:Aiwa :•,o obtained the widest pos sible circulation. The means of accomplishing this necessary preliminary object appear to be, viz.:— To bring together, analyze,condense,anddiffuse, the facts already- at band. To adopt the best means of obtaining regular and syste matic information from all parts of India. To begin a collection of the most useful Works on every branch of the subject. To issue, under proper management, a Piltiodical Publica tion, containing the most recent, important, and inte resting Indian intelligence. To reprint, in whole or in part, such Works as may be calculated to elucidate particular portions of the great subject. To employ an active, experienced, and effective Agency, for the organization of Provincial Auxiliary Societies. The judicious and zealous prosecution of a course, such as has been now described, would, the Committee feel assured, effectually remove the apathy which at present exists. That apathy, they believe, may with justice be ascribed to the diffi culty which has hitherto attended the search after correct and comprehensive information, respecting the condition and cha racter of the natives of India, and the nature and effects of Bri tish rule in the East. The Committee entertain no doubt, that, when the vast im portance of our Possessions is understood—when the claims of one hundred millions of British subjects are recognized and felt —and when the responsibility and moral obligation of this nation towards them are considered, a great and generous effort will promptly be made, to benefit a country, which contains within itself, the means of returning a hundred-fold into the bosoms of its benefactors, all the blessings they can possibly confer upon it. The Committee prefer to make their appeal to the just prin ciples and Christian feelings of the country. They are not ig norant, however, of the extent to which they might address themselves to the I.,yalty, the patriotism, and the interests of their fellow-citizens ; but they believe that such an appeal is unnecessary. They feel convinced that no argument is required, to demonstrate the inseparable connexion between the bettering of the social, moral, and intellectual condition, of the countless millions of India, and the accomplishment of those ends which are sought by the promoters and patrons of legitimate corn p I s a o Tns , e i r at rcy Committee imu o r si f pl BritishgtreitttNe:eaD,ns havingpdAi ec e -to m ohpce p ey i merce, and the advocates of the honour, the stability, and the p H Ir statedaEa e tr , Ticoaynt aboutt h ,oh lf o eo m tohtk e eowa attemptßni objects,d,. hi t a ci bsohrnofipta principles,ud, eeb. o sa i n a c ß ti c c e. Theyr formationt andhe sincerely and earnestly solicit advice. They especially desire the aid of gentlemen who have resided in India, and who, after perusing this Prospectus, feel that they can cordially unite in the work proposed. Finally, the Committee respectfully solicit pecuniary assist ance. Subscriptions and donations will be gratefully received by the Treasurer, Secretaries, Bankers, and Members of the Committee.

Since the First Edition of this Prospectus was issued, the Committee have received, from various parts of the country, the most encouraging assurances of sympathy and support. The Committee have been peculiarly gratified by the Resolution passed at the Annual Meeting of the Relief Synod of Scotland, on the 14th inst.—recognising the great importance of the object the Committee have in view, and pledging the co-opera tion of that respectable and influential body. The friends of humanity will rejoice to find that Thomas Clarkson, Esq., the venerable and enlightened friend of African freedom, has heartily united with those who are associated in this effort for the improvement of the condition of their fellow-subjects, the Natives of British India.

Hull, June 19, 1839. AND NATIONAL TURNPIKE ROADS. There is a direct communication by steam to NEW YORK, ORLEANS, PITSBURG, RICHMOND, BAL. TIMORE, AND WASHINGTON. THE VAST RAILROADS HAVE COMMENCED under the sanction of Government, who have contributed FIFTEEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS towards their completion. They are now fast approaching roaturitcy, and run through a large portion of this elegible property. The lands are in Cabell and Kanawha counties. They are fertile almost boyond belief, the soil adapted to the production of evci y thing that is useful and necessary for city consumption—viz., Barley, Wheat (averaging 30 bushels per we), Rye, Oats, Cotton, Pots. toes, Maize (averaging 60 to 100 bushels per acre), Turnips, Hay (crops tw• tons per acre), Hemp, Tobacco, Fruit, and Vegetables, in the greatest profusion and perfection. They are also peculiarly adapted for RAISING OF CATTLE of all kinds, and three years absolutely DOUBLE THEIR NUMBER. Industry and a little capital, therefore, are alone wanting to render this one of the FAIREST AGRICULTURAL PORTIONS OF THE GLOBE, in a climate, it must be remembered, remarkable for its salubrity and invigorating Powers, and the Country, in point of' Health, unsurpassed ; besides which, it may be called THE LAND OF PROMISE, from its extraordinary and inexhaustible discoveries and natural productions. FOR THIS CHARMING COUNTRY, is not only rich in beautiful and picturesque scenery, lout abounds in objects interesting to the Naturalist and Antiquarian, inasmuch as the mineral and fossil wealth is nowhere to be equalled, and iron, stone, coal, lead. limestone, &c., are found in every part in the greatest abundance; and, what is now of first-rate importance to the emigrant, in point of profit or revenue, most valuable and con_ tinuous Salt Springs are to be found on every Acre of the Estate. From the minerals on this property a fruitful source of commercial enterpi ise may be contemplated. It should be observed that religious worship is unshackled, and there is A TOTAL ABSENCE OF TAXES, ALSO VAST TRACTS OF VALUABLE TIMBER, consisting of enormous oak, maple, poplar, and other trees, winch add in a large degree to the already large protit, being in great demand for ship-building, steam-boats, and exportation. It may, therefore, be stated, in great confidence, that this sale will secure to those of VERY LIMITED MEANS WEALTH WITHOUT RISK possessing only the essential requisites of industry and talent. A farmer having saved even from 200/. to 3001. from the wreck of his fortune will find at this sale an opportunity to realise all his bright and early anticipation. It is not a speculation founded on theory, experience has demonstrated that it is a moral certainty, and, conse. quently, a mechanic possessing 2001. or upwards, may confidently appear at this auspicious sale. One single fact will convince the sceptic that the United States are sought as the resting place of nearly all emigrants: during one month no fewer then SIXTEEN THOUSAND PASSENGERS arrived at New York, and the ratio drawn from the above is that should emigration thus proceed, New York in half a year will pos. Bess half a million more foreigners. Particulars may be had at the Waterloo, Liverpool ; the Man. ehester Times Office, at Manchester ; the Hen and Chickens, at Birmingham; the Auction Mart ; and at Mr. George Robins's Of. flees, Covent-garden. The title is clear beyond the possibility of doubt, being the origi. I and grants from the Virginian Government in the year 1705. SALES BY AUCTION. On the Bank of LOCH LOMOND, AN ESTATE DISTIN. GUISHED FOR ITS PROUD SUPERIORITY OVER ALL ATTEMPTED RIVALRY ON THE LAKE, EITHER FOR INVESTMENT OR OCCUPATION, FIVE MILES from DUMBARTON, TWENTY from GLASGOW, and within TWENTY.FINE HOURS' JOURNEY of LONDON. THE SALE TO BE PEREMPTORY. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has great pleasure in announcing that he is favoured by the Instructions of the Proprietor to OFFER FOR SALE by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY, July the 25th, at Twelve. A singularly DF.LIGHTFUL FREEHOLD ESTATE, including THE CASTLE OF TULLICHEWEN, presenting orxe of the FINEST SPECIMENS IN EUROPE OF THE PURE GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE, WITH ITS BEAUTIFUL PARK, CULTIVATED LANDS, AND EXTENSIVE WOODS, Delightfully situate so as to command THE CONFLUENCE OF THE LAKE with the RIVER LEVEN, Five Miles from the GIGANTIC ROCK AND FORTRESS OF DUMBARTON, on the most interesting point of the Clyde, and Twenty miles from the City of Glasgow. This splendid Property is now, by means of the Birmingham and Grand Junction Railways avid the Steam Communication brought within a short Journey of TWENTY-FIVE HOURS FROM THE GREAT METROPOLIS. THE CASTLE STANDS PROUDLY IN A FINELY WOODED PARK. It is the GREAT LEVIATHAN OF THE LAKE; everything on its banks must yield to its proud supremacy, and the arrangement within is in such classical taste, in such perfect keeping, the ensemble is so unapproachable, the views so resplen. dent, both in distance and splendour, that a rival need not to be apprehended throughout the Queen's dominions; it overlooks the most magnificent Scenery of Scotland, and is itirugether commensu. rate to the legitimate claims of SCOTCH AND ENGLISH HOSPITALITY. A NOBLEMAN OF tat NK, will be quite at his ease; although one of less pretensions, and who desires only to locate at Tullichewen for a limited season, will find the great desideratum of its not being inconveniently large. The rece eation of SHOOTING, AND FISHING, are auxiliaries, to an extent tha.t few can parallel: THE DEMESNE EXTENDS TO FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX IMPERIAL ACRES; the cultivated land is underlet at about 6001. a-year, independently of the woods, which arc in high condition. The mansion is suitably furnished ; the aid of Gillow and Dowbiggin, the celebrated artistes in decorative furniture, has been called in to complete it; and the appendages, in Pictures and articles of taste and vertu, give to it a decided superiority over all its neighbouring rivals. The offi ces are equal to the most sanguine expectation. The moors do not merely find excellent pasturage for the cattle, but ample scope for those who would recreate in shooting black and red grouse, woodcocks, and all sorts of game; and if it be in " the mind's eye" of a purchaser to add to the delight of shooting to a still greater extent, " SEVEN THOUSAND ACRES OF MOORS are to be purchased close by. LOCH LOMOND, THE "NE PLUS ULTRA" OF SCOTLAND'S FAMED LAKES, within a short mile of the Castle and demesne, will delight the amateurs in wild fowl shooting ; and those inclined to salmon and trout fishing will find it to their hearts' content in the River Leven. Such is an imperfect outline of a few of the prominent attributes to which this famed property puts in an irresistible claim. The difficult task, however, is still in abeyance—to pourtray in suitable language THE SURPASSING BEAUTY OF THE SPLENDID SCENERY, EMBRACING THE LOVELY LOCH AND LOFTY BEN LOMOND, (the greatest features amid Scotland's never.ending splendour and variety), is an undertaking to which the humble individual intrusted with the conduct of this sale feels most acutely how inadequate he is to the duty that has been imposed upon him ; his chief relief, nay, " his main stay" (if he may be permitted the observation), arises out of a reminiscence that SCOTIA'S OWN BARD fbund himself in the same dilemma. All those who have not par taken of the good fortune to sojourn amid the beauteous scenery before alluded to, or to behold Loch Lomond sleeping in the arms of her hundred hills by THE LIGHT OF A SEPTEMBER MOON, OR FROM THE THE LOFTY TOWERS OF THE CASTLE, on. a fine evening beheld the setting sun reflecting in the distance UPON THE GRAMPIAN HILLS, will be enchanted by a spectacle that must awaken the most delight ful sensations, and, to the contemplative mind, fill him with awe and reverence to the great Master and Creator of all things pet feet, to those in such a mood he would invoke with all ;humility, yet ertrnestness, to search for what the greatest novelist of bygone days has said of THE MOST BEAUTIFUL OF ALL THE CALEDONIAN LAKES. The magic touch of his nerer-erring muse must awaken a sensation first to see and then to possess THE GREATEST FEATURE OF THIS VICINITY, " So wondrous wild, the whole might seem s The scenery of a fairy dream." Next in our kind remembrance IS BEN LOMOND, wbich will necessarily partake of its due meed of praise. This mountain, LIKE SAUL AMIDST HIS COMPANIONS, o'ertops all contemporaries. The valley, teeming in wild fertility, relieved by pastures and corn land, and varied by ALL THE SOFTER BEAUTIES OF NATURE, completcs a scene which can only be appreciated by ocular demon. stration. The Constituency of THE BOROUGH OF DUMBARTON will hail with delight the possessor of this Castle and Demesne, and if his principles be worthy of their suffrages, he will probably WALK OVER THE COURSE. To conclude, one half of the purchase-money may remain on security of the Estates, at four per cent. May be viewed, with a particular of sale, to be had at the Commercial and News Rooms and Exchange Coffee Rooms, at Glasgow and Edinburgh ; the Waterloo, Liverpool ; the Bush, Bristol ; of Mr. Fisher, Auc tioneer, M 4nchester ; at the Auction Mart; and at Mr. George Robins's Offices, Covent Garden, London, where the three beautiful Views of the Castle and Loch may be seen.

THE CITY OF LLANDAFF, so called, bnt which in truth can only claim to be legitimized as a village, is immediately opposite ; and THE CATHEDRAL OF LLANDAFF, only a few hundred yards off: THE GABALVA ESTATE, includes a:residence full of comfort, and with abundant accommo dation to meet the wishes and enjoyment of a family prone to hos pitality and good fellowship, including altogether sixteen bed. rooms, a spacious drawing and dining.reom, library, and billiard. room, besides domestic comforts of every kind. THE COLTIIT.YA RD encloses standing for Five Carriages and Stalls for Ten Horses, Dog Kennel, and an infinity of appendages, useful as well as orna mental. THE PLEASURE GROUNDS AND GARDENS are extensive and prolific, beside the delight and luxury of HOT-HOUSE, PEACHERY, AND CONSERVATORY. The Kitchen Garden, of two acres, is encompassed by lofty walls, which yearly groan with the weight of never.failing crops. These Gardens have been aptly brought into comparison with THE HORTICULTURAL GARDENS, possessing all that this renowned Society can claim by their learn ing, and unincumbcred with its vast expense. THE DOMAIN EXTENDS ALTOGETHER TO ONE HUNDRED AND ONE ACIIES in which is included SEVENTY-EIGHT ACRES OF THE FINEST MEADOW' LAND IN THE COUNTY, with farm buildings fully commensurate. The Arable Lands approach the Town of Cardiff', one of the " MOST IMPROVING TOWNS IN ENGLAND," THE MARQUIS OF BUTE having taken it under his special protection, and in furtherance cf the grand plan, has already achieved a wonder, in the rapidity by which he has caused the Docks to be nearly completed, and THE TAFF VALE RAILWAY in full progress. It will pass through the Arable Land of the Estate ; and there are Lots of BEAUTIFUL SITES FOR THE ERECTION OF VILLAS. The beauties of Glamorganshire are so well known that it would be a work of supererogation to remark upon them, further than to de. monstrate that a building operation within the INCOMPARABLE BEAUTIES OF GLAMORGANSHIRE'S FAVOURED SCENERY must unquestionably be A CERTAIN AND PROFITABLE OPERATION. A purchaser who inclines to the Estate will find it return, in due season, a very large Interest upon the Capital embarked.

SOAP SUDS A SPECIFIC FOR NOURISH ING FLOWERS. —A fair correspondent of the Dumfries Courier writes—" Recently I happened to gather a beau tiful pansey, and when tired of admiring it, tossed the toy aside, which partly by accident fell into a box-full of soap suds. The said pansey had neither joint nor root, and you may judge of my surprise when at the end of a day or two, I found it growing. From this time forward I watched it narrowly, and now find it, after the lapse of a fortnight, a goodly plant with several buds on it. Think ing water might produce the same effect, I placed a newly cropped pansey in an element, which, pure in itself is the medium of purity in every thing else • but it withered and died on so spare a diet. By way Of confirming the first experiment, I have since placed a slip of a rose tree and a pink in suds, and both arc flourishing in great vigour in my dressing-room. THE COMET.—Biele's comet, after a period of six years and nine months, will cross the ecliptic on July 16, and re-appear in our hemisphere, but will not be visible to the naked eye. It is the same as in 1832 was expected by the unlearned to come in contact with our globe on October 29th, and at least throw it out of its course, if not altogether destroy it. In 1826, this comet passed us at a distance of 55,000 leagues, or a little more than half the distance between the earth and the moon, without its pas sage having the slightest influence upon us. The atmo sphere or nebulosity of this small comet is very limited, extending to only 40 minutes, or two thirds of a degree. EMBANKMENT OF THE THAMES.--A.
