NORRIs'S DROPS are a certain remedy for Fevers, Colds, Inf:news, and all Diseases that arise from obstructed perspiration. The Medicine here recommended to the Practitioner, and the Public, possesses qualities of the most mild and beneficial nature ; it is composed of articles known to be the most anti-putreseent, combined with the ingredient known to the profes sion, as the only certain anntidote for Fevers of every description. When the disease is produced either from cold, obstruction, bad air, swampy and damp situations, or putrid miasma, whether malignant or epidemic, or by other causes, this medicine is certain in its opera tion and effects, it produces the most gentle and salutary perspira tion, and by a specific quality, peculiar to itself, not only expels the disease, but restores and invigorates the system. These celebrated Drops have had the unbiassed testimonies to their invariable affects, of numbers of Vie nobility, gentry, and medical men of this king dom, and the extensive demand for them from the West Indies and America, proves that in those countries they are held in equal estimation. The Genuine will have engraved on the Government Stamp, " Thomas Norris Moore." iSold in bottles at 2s. 9d., I Is., and family bottles at 225. each, by Edwards, 67, St. Paul's Church-yard ; Sanger, 150, 010:Ird - stree t . 1 White, 24, COnshill ; and by molt respectable Chemists. / 7- PIZ' • / : 1 4 ,-:-71-7171. 1 , • •• - • • . • /). ;41. ;1• ' t • •••••_-, I .

This Line of Railway is projected for the purpose as well of esta blishing a communication by railway along the coast of an important maritime district, as of affording to the rich grazing and agricultural divisions of the county of Lincoln a more cheap and ready access to the London and Yorkshire markets, and of completing the eastern chain of railway communication through this important county. The advantages offered to the graziers and cattle traders of that part of Lincolnshire which supplies both the London and Yorkshire markets with so large a proportion of fat stock, and to the towns of Louth, Wainfleet, Alfonl, and Spilsby, by providing a more curt sin and ready transit for manufactured goods and articles of merchan dise, cannot be estimated MD . The productive districts around these towns would also fully partici pate in the advantages of this communication with the manufacturing and large consuming towns of Yorkshire, to which nearly the entire produce of corn and wool from such districts Is now transmitted by a materially l n y d to depress place such c t h h e price produce o a f t pr o duce reat the water carriage, so tedious, expensive, and uncertain of delivery, as markets disadvantageas compared o o n f l p t a h r e e s d e with that of other markets possessing g greater facilities oftransit. . A very considerable return-traffic in coals from the Yorkshire Coal-fields would be • obtained, and this article of absolute necessity, at present supplied to the population of this part of the country, at an expense seriously increased by the difficulties of carriage, would be afforded at a greatly reduced price. Independently of these local advantages, it is impossible to over rate those of a more general, and even national character, connected with the projected Improvements of the port of Great Grimsby, the locality of which (at the mouth of t.: e Humber) affords fteilittes su perior to any other port with reference to the Baltic and llamburgh trades, or to the malls between Loudon and the Northern Continental ports. In the article of fish alone (in the transit of which every hour's delay is of so much importance), it is calculated that a great pro portion of tile supply front the Northern Seas would necessarily be' transmitted to the metropolis through this line. The line has also the important advantage of the cordial approval and support o f the principal landed proprie t ors through whose estates it will pass. The country is peculiarly favourable, and the cheap construction, and the excellent gradients of the.line, will permit of its being worked at as low a cost as any in the kingdom. The Committee of Direction have au thorit y to increase or reduce the Capital, and generally to adop t such measures as they may think necessary to f for obtaining the requisite Par liamentar y powers form a Company for the construction of the entire railway, or any portion thereof with such branches and extensions as the • may hereafter find expedient, and to apply the deposits in discharge of any liabilities which they may incur under the ge neral powers vested in them for the prosecution of the undertaking. No Shares will be allotted except to parties giving satisfactory re ferences, and such applications to be ad dressed to the liecretary or Solicitors. To prevent trouble to all parties, no other applications will be attended to. " . Application for Shares to be made to the solicitors according to the subjoined form : FORM OF APPLICATION.

The extensive and influential support which has been given to this Company, and the cordial feeling in its favour pervading the districts through which the line is intended to run, have induced the Com mittee to accede to a generally expressed wish of the inhabitants on the proposed line, that they should be prepared, if hereafter found necessary, to enlarge their original scheme, so as to offer to the public the advantage of a new and perfectly independent line from London to Exeter. With this view the Committee have adopted measures by which 'they will be enabled to commence their line at Staines or Richmond, should the lines to those places, now before Parliament, receive the sanction of the Legislature, and from thence to proceed by way of Bagshot, Basingstoke, and Andover, to Salisbury and Yeovil, instead of commencing the line at Basingstoke. With regard to an extension from Yeovil to Exeter, the Com mittee have no intention of competing with the present Exeter, Yeovil, and Dorchester Company; but in the event of their failing to carry out their scheme, this Company will be ready to make the ex tension to Exeter. In reference to the important question of the broad and narrow gauges, the Committee consider it expedient at present to leave it entirely open. It is obvious that, if the line were to commence at Basingstoke, two alternatives wo to present themselves ; first, that of constructing it on the narrow guage, and, in that case, of adopting the line of the South-Western Company from London to Basingstoke, or, secondly, of constructing it on the broad guage, and of traversing the Great Western main line and its branch from Reading to Basing stoke. . . The advantage of an entirely independent line appears, however, to be paramount. Such a line would afford the Government the means of bringing the South Western and Great Western Companies within the soope of the Railway Act of last session, as to the power of pur chase and revision, and thus protect the public from the effects of powerful monopoly. he Board. of Trade's report on the London, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, and Birmingham and Shrewsbury districts, attaches much weight to all reasonable guarantees against monopoly which may be offered by existing companies. In that do cument it is stated that the London and Birmingham Railway Com pany, on condition of obtaining their Rugby line, have offered to allow the following clauses to be inserted in their Act, viz.:- 1. The whole Of the railways under their control, including the existing London and Birminghavi Railway, to become subject to the options ortevision nod purchase contained in the Act of last year ; 'the option of revision, however, at ten rer cent., to accrue at an earlier period than that of twenty years, specified in the Act. . 2. A revised tariff to be fr.-med for the whole of the said railways, Including the London and Birmingham Railway, upon the principle of fixing maximum rates for passengers and g: ods lower than those at present charged, and at as 14w a level as those charged upon any of the principal northern railways 3. One article of such tariff to be, that coals and iron are to be carried at rates not exceeding Id. per ton per mile, including toll and locomotive power. 4. All differences with other railway companies, by which the public safety or convenience .re affected, to be referred to the Board of Trade, or other competent authority for that purpose established by Parliament. 5. The London and Birmingham Company to pledge tits whole revenue of their existing line for the completion of the proposed un dertaking within a reasonable time. The Committee look forward with confidence to the adoption of their scheme, more especially as the Board of Trade has stated in their report on the Hampshire, Wilts, and llorset district, that there is nothing in the present settlement between the Great Western and the South-Western Companies to prevent such a line as that now proposed from being brought forward, either by tho South-Western Company or by other parties. The Committee have therefore determined to apply to Parliament for power to commence their line at Staines or Richmond, thereby securing a most advantageous metropolitan terminus at the Hun gerford station. On the final adoption of the extended scheme, the capital will be proportionably increased, and in the allotment of the additional shares a preference given to approved holders of the existing scrip.

The proposed line is intended to commence at a point on the Great North of England Railway, near Northallerton, taking part of the branch line to Richmond, now before Parliament, and diverging from it a short distance east of its terminus, thence following the south side of the Tees Valley, up the Greta, over the line of the ancient Roman way to Brough, forward within a short distance of Kirkby Stephen, through the rich valley of the Eden, by way of Appleby, and to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near to Clifton, south of Penrith. Diverting from this line, southward of Stainmore, a branch will proceed through Ravenstonedale to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway between Orton and Borrow Bridge. The direc tion of the proposed line is north-west, following the mall-coach route from York to Carlisle, and involving thh least sacrifice of distance in. , connecting together the two great trunk lines of rail way, the eastern and western sides of the island. The distance from Northallerton to Penrith will be sixty-one miles; of this fifty-five miles will be new railway, which, with tho branch to:Orton, seventeen additional miles, will form a total distance of seventy-two miles. The capital will be 1,500,0601., in 30,000 shares of fifty pounds each. One-third-500,0001.—0f which is placed at the disposal of the Lancaster and Carlisle Board, to be appropriated amongst the parties interested in that Company. The revenue will be derived from pas sengers travelling from all the eastern districts of the island south of Darlington to Scotland, and from the counties of Durham and na - - thumberland to Lancashire, and the west of England, and Ireland. In addition to the proceeds from passengers and goods, a very large income will accrue from the extensive mineral resources of the country. A better access will be made to the Lead Mines of Mid dleton-in-Teesdale, and to those in Westmorland. The line will run near a largo district of iron-stone, and become the channel fur the coal of Durham to pass into East Cumberland, Westmorland, the north-west of Yorkshire, and Lancashire aorta of the Wyre. It will form a junction between the Baltic ports of the Wear and the Tees and the western ports of Lancaster, Fleetwood, and Liverpool. To increase the traffic to these large importing harbours, new docks are now making at Hartlepool, and the Tees river has been declared a " free port" to all vessels. There are no canals in the district, and no direct competing rail ways. The local traffic Is now conveyed by carts, while the through traffic is conveyed from 31aneliester to Newcastle) by York on the one hand, or by Carlisle on the other. Stainmore is the route fer the agricultural produce of Cumberland passing into the colliery and mining districts of Durham. The general traffic has been estimated to yield an adequate return for the proposed capital. For the purpose of securing the coal trade a Branch will be made from West Auckland to the line between Greta Bridge and Bowes. This Branch will connect Barnard Castle with the Coal District as well as give to that town a road to the south-west and to the north. At West Auckland the Durham coal-field is already open in every direction by railways already formed. The usual clause will be inserted in the Act, for limiting the liability of Shareholders to the amount of their respective Shares. Application for Shares to be made, on r before Thursday, th e Ist of May, to John Whitwell, Esq., Honorary Secretary, Kendal, or to the Solicitors, as above. REGISTERED PROVISIONALLY. N ORTH DERBYSHIRE UN lON RAILWAYS: - Notice is hereby given, a COMTANY is FORMING, and that application will be made in the Etsuing . Session of Parliament for Acts authorising the CONSTRUCTION of TWO LINES of RAIL WAY, one of them commenchlg at Buxton, passing by Ashford and Bakewell, and t rrninating by a Junction with the proposed Man chester, Sheffield, and Midland Junction Railway, at or near Wood seats; and the other commencing at Matlock, and joining the pro posed Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland Junction Railway, at or near Chesterfield. Independently of the large local passenger traffic which these lines will secure, a considerable revenue will be derived from the con veyance of agricultural prod And also of marble, limestone, And lead ore, in which the district abounds; and they will also furnish the most direct and economical route for the conveyance of the coals from the Dronfield, Unstone, Newbold, and Chesterfield coal-fields to the towns and villages of North Derbyshire.. The promoters have ascertained that the traffic which must neces sarily pass over these Lines will be highly remunerative, and in the formation of them due regard will be paid to the interests of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland Junction, and the Manchester And Buxton Extension, or Wye Valley Companies—to the Proprie tors of which Lines a preference will be given in the allotment of Shares.

To the PROPRIETOR S of the BRIT ANNIA LIFE ASSUR ANCE GENTLEMEI.I,—In calling your attention to the annexed Notice of the establishment of a Mutual Assurance Branch, I beg leave to address a few observations to you relative to the past transactions, and the probable result of the proposed extension of the operations of the Company. That the "Britannia Company has enjoyed the decided and (I trust I may be permitted to say) deserved approbation of the public, Is clearly proved by the unprecedented fact of upwards of 6,000 1840 ; the policies having been issued in the short space of eight years. In ' order, however, to show the high degree of credit and influence pos sessed by the Company, it is only necessary for me to state, that two highly respectable and well-established Life Assurance Companies took place in the year have successively transferred their business to this establishment. latter in It is in consequence of this last-mentioned transfer, which included a large number of Policies effected on the mutual assurance plan, and also in consequence of the numerous compelapplicaions for Assurances on this plan, which they have hitherto been led to decline, that ifnernitheercoeufrstehoesfethteraepas:te, transfers the Directors at length determined on the establishment of a Mutual Assurance Branch, on she plan set forth in the Prospectus, after it had been submitted to, and unanimously approvd by, two succes sive. General Meetings of Proprietors, speciall y convened on the occasion. ssurance Societies, that (in their Thei general objection to M u tual A infamy, at least) they do not afford that complete security to the Assured which is supplied by the subscribed capital of Proprietary Establishments, is completely removed in the Mutual Branch of the "Britt nnia" Company ; for not only are the Mutual Policy-holders protected by the entire subscribeAl capital of the Proprietary Branch„ but the large and continually -increasing fund, accumulated from the Prem toms on 6,000 Policies already effected in that Branch, consti tutes an immediately available Amd for the paymeat of the claims of the A ssured, who will thus enjoy all the seemit y afforded by an old established office, and, at the same time, become entitled to all the benef , its to be derived from that system of Mutual Assurance which experience has proved to Be at the same time the safest and the best. Ano tier serious objection to the Mutual re Assurance Plan (as gene rally a cos on) is the hig h rate of premiumrequired to be paid, in the &111, instance, in order to form a fund—not only for the payment of the criaims, but also for the distribution of large bonuses among the policy-holders. This objection also is entirely removed by means of the her credit system detailed in the prospectus. For, by allowing half this w amount of the first five a n nual premiums to remain for five years in the hands of e person assureentitled) t o thaplyeing the bonus liqui (to 1 hi c h l i e, would otherwise becomegradual da tion of the debt thus incurred with the Company. the policy - holder enjoys the ,rare advantage that veil low l rate of premium, in the first instance, co mbined with of participation, eventually, in the ln p v rofits. aailirt c m yself of this opportunity of congratulating my co shareholders on the extraordinary success which hitherto has at tended the operations of the Britannia Life Assurance Company, I trust I shall, at very distant period, have still ft irther to congratu late them on tiff complete success of the Mutual Assurance Branch, which, after Off most anxious care and attention, has been founded on a plan ealcoulitted, in every possible way, to benefit and accommo date the public. I cannot, in justice to the Directors, conclude this address without calling your attention to the able and cordial co-operation which has been afforded to ;tie on their part, not only on the present important occasion, but alai , in every other instance in which their advice and assistance have bow needful for promoting the interests of the Insti tution. , I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, .
