But after all, as had been very properly suggested by their Chairman, the great and paramount basis of the Association must be the support which it would receive from the clerks themselves. The CHAIRMAN then proposed "Prosperity to the Bank of England and the East India Company," and, in doing so. he took the opportunity of eulogising the energy and ability of the gentleman whose name he mentioned in connexion with the monetary matters of this country, as displayed by him upon recent occasions, when he had to negotiate with the Minister upon bank ing matters.—(Hear, hear.) With respect to commerce, all he would say upon such a subject was, that it tended to advance civilisation and promote the general welfare of the community. Mr. COTTON returned thanks. He did not anticipate that he should ever have another opportunity of return ing thanks for a compliment paid to theßank of England, being no longer its governor. He felt it, however, . no , little honour to be mentioned in the way that he hull been by their worthy Chairman. He felt proud in having' contributed in any way to place the monetary system of this country on a safe and sound footing.—(Hear, hear.) With respect to the ohjcct of the meeting, he could assure them that he felt a deep interest in it. and be should ba most happy if any act of his would have the effect of advancing its interests, and promoting its pros perity.—(Cheers.)

John Bell, 28, Craven-street, Strand, London W. H. Moberley, Southampton The object of this undertaking is to afford to the important and rising Port of Southampton a direct and uninterrupted Railway com munication with Salisbury, Bath, Bristol, and the Iron and Coal Districts of Gloucestershire and South Wales. This is proposed to he effected by a Line of Railway from Southamp ton to Salisbury, constructed on the broad gauge, and forming a junction there with the Line projected by the Great Western Com pany, by which means this much required chain of communication through Wiltshire and Somersetshire will be complete. This measure * receives the influential local support of the leading Gentlemen of the towns of Southampton, Salisbury, and the country through which the proposed Line passes, and who are impressed with its great advantages, and the conviction of its necessity. By this measure, the English and Bristol Channels will be brought into close connexion, affording great resources both to Southampton and Bristol, at the same time establishing a means of mutual and valuable interchange of commerce to the towns and districts Um versed. The existing traffic through these districts is known to be consi derable, and is vouched for by the fact that on the original projection of the Wilts and Somerset Railway, from or near Bath to Salisbury, the Great Western Company entered into an engagement to lease that Line, at the rate of Four per Cent., with the advantages of a moiety of the surplus profits. The completion of this Line, there fore, by a direct connexion with a principal port must, it is confi dently assumed, secure to an extension Line the benefit of increased traffic, and to the Shareholders an ample return. Independent of the well-established traffic which the proposed Line ensures, it will open new markets and de relope fresh resources to Southampton by reason of the advantages of direct communication. This would be accomplished particularly in the articles of coal and iron. The coal being brought direct from the coal-fields could pro vide Southampton and the neighbourhood, and also the steam-vessels frequenting the port with a constant and regular supply at a low rate ; while the supply of seabome coal required for the manufac turers could be transported inland at greatly reduced charges. In iron also a new trade is springing up, and this line will at once supply the steady and increasing demand for that article, which is at pre sent subject to the expense, delay, and uncertainty of carriage by coasting vessels. It is proposed that this line, which passes through land of little value, shall join the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway at Fisherton Anger, and proceed by or near to Downton, Plaitford, Redbridge, Millbrook, to the Royal Pier at Southampton, convenient to which it is proposed to erect a spacious terminus and terrace on the present waste shore, the cost of which is included:in the estimate. It is intended to snake such arrangements with the Pier Company as will admit of the numerous steam and other vessels frequenting the pier, and trading with the Channel Islands and along the coast, to land their passengers and goods on to the line at once. The completion of this line will enable a system of the Electric Te legraph to be established between the two Channels. A careful examination of the country has been made, and it pre sents no engineering difficulties, and the surveys are in course of com pleti on. Detailed prospectuses will be issued in a few days ; in the mean time forms of application for shares may be had of Williams, Chevin, and Co., 30, Bucklersbnry. BATHS of HOMBURG, near FRANKFORT ON-THE-MAINE. The Mineral Waters of Homburg take their rise at the foot of the Taunus mountains, two hundred yards above the level of the sea. To the original springs, the reputation of which is so perfect], estab lished in Germany, that there have lately been joined fresh sources, which from the intensity of their mineralisation and the energy of their action in certain morbid cases, have elevated them to the first rank among the mineral waters of Germany. The springs of Homburg are five in number. They have been analysed by the celebrated Professor Liebig. Notwithstanding the differences which exist between them, they may be considered as the same medicament diversely modified. Their mineral principles re main the same, with no other difference than their quantities and proportions. This affords to the physicians the highly valuable ad vantage of applying to each individual case the peculiar water best adapted to it, and of modifying the treatment according to the course and progress of the complaint. The internal use of these waters is of constant efficacy, above all when drunk at their source, for then the yid:lying air of the moun tains, the diversion of mind by the moving scene, and the abstrac tion from the cares of the world, concur in assisting the action of the medicinal beverage. The waters of Homburg are stimulant, tonic, alterative, and aperient. They are suited to all cases requiring an amelioration of the disordered state of the stomach and other intestines, by giving a peculiar stimulus to these organs when necessary to excite the abdo minal circulation, to assist the secretory processes, and to regularise nutrition and assimilation. Their great success has been recognised in enlargements of the liver, in affections of the spleen, in hypo chondria, jaundice, the hemorrhoids, and obstinate constipation. In gout and all affections produced by derangement of the digestive functions, most happy results are derived from them. During the four years which have elapsed since these springs first obtained their merited celebrity, the city of Homburgh has greatly improved. A new towh has grown up by the side of the old, and new hotels and private houses afford to visitors all the comforts re quired by invalids, and luxuries to be found in the most favourite watering places._ . . . . . The forests, which surround Homburg like a rich zone, are piercel with rides and drives by which the residents at the Baths may, with ease and pleasure, visit the Feldberg, the Rock of Elizabeth, Luther's Oaks, and all the picturesque sites of the Taunus. The Directors of this grand Establishment have constructed a mag nificent Casino, which—by the beauty of its architecture, the excel lence of its distribution, and the richness of its decorations—surpasses any building hitherto erected at any point on the banks of the Rhine. It contains splendid saloons for balls and concerts ; reams for the games of Trente et Quarante, and for Roulette tables ; a Cabinet for reading, in which are most of the German, French, English, Russian, Belgian, and Dutch journals; a Coffee-room; a Divan for smoking, opening onto a tine terrace laid with asphalte, and a grand dining-room with a table-d'hôte, served ala Francaise, twice a-day, viz. at one and five o'clock. The excellent orchestra from the Theatre of Mentz performs three times a day ; In the morning, at the Springs ; in the afternoon, in the beautiful Gardens of the Casino ; and in the evening in the grand Ball-room. Concerts, Balls, and Fetes of every description succeed each other without interruption. The Directors shrink from no sacrifice to render this watering place as delightful as possible to its visitors, and to this end have rented about 50,000 acres of forest-lands and plains, all abounding in game of every description, as well a reserve Park for the Grandees Chasses at the close of the winter season. The Casino of Homburg, is the only establishment of the kind that has enjoyed hitherto the privilege of remaining open all the year, and the continuation of its tables for play, its balls, its concerts, and its hunting parties through out the winter-season, makes it attract a numerous and select so ciety from every quarter of Europe. The Journey from London to Homburg, passing through Cologne, Mentz and Frankfort, is performed in 44 hours. The distance from Frankfort to Homburg is got over in one hour and a half. Mail coaches and omnibuses run between these places every hoar. ONE GUINEA WELLINGTON BOOTS MADE TO MEASURE, By G. GARRETT, Boot-maker by special appointment to the King of the Belgians.

A sporting coat's the very thing, of course, In which to gaze upon the winning horse. A sporting gentleman should always court Habiliments in keeping with his sport : And, recollect, these articles will suit The race-course gents, as well as those 'who shoot. Then don't forget, before you take your places, To make a purchase for the " Epsom races."

" El[IS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT has of late taken great interest in the breeding of the Llama, from which a very fine wool is obtained. The cloth made of this is of a peculiarly soft and agreeable texture, and as some curiosity has been raised by the announcement of the registry of a coat under the new Act, by Messrs. NICOLL, of Regent-street, Tailors to the Court, it may be marked that such was made of this material. The coat itself is termed the REGISTERED PALETOT, and in its appearance there is nothing very singular beyond a very gentlemanly neatness and an absence of all unsightly vulgarity. Upon being submitted at Court, it met with high approbation." — Morning Post, April 19. " This garment is so great an imrove ment on the old wrap-rascal, that its general acoption by men of taste is inevitable."—The Sun, April 30. " Amongst the registration of designs, according to the new Act, that of a coat is to be found. The notions of securing the particular substance and cut of a coat is cer tainly a new one, but it speaks well fbr the working of an Act which thus secures the profits of a good judgment and well directed ingenuity to those to whom alone it is duo."—The Times, April 4. Registered Paletot, two guineas. 114, Regent-street, London, four doors north of Quadrant. GOVERNMENT PROTECTION, under 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 65, for three years, obtained by H. J. and D. NICOLL, COURT TAILORS, 114, Regent-street, London, for their new introduction, the REGISTERED PALETOT, which is a summer overcoat, light in weight, embracing the convenience and comfort of the wrapper of tweed and its moderate price, without its inelegant and universally admitted common appearance. The material is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest Llama wool, and in its fashion is neither trop neglige ni trop habille, but whilst showing to advantage the proportions of the figure, it can not encumber free movement, worn riding or walking ; it will also, from the neatness of its form, admit its being used as a light Frock Coat—a desirable advantage in our warmest summer months, or abroad, where heat is found oppressive. H. J. and D. Nicoll, sensi tive to the importance of that vade mecum—a moderate light over coat—in a climate so ehangeable as that of Great Britain, would not submit to the public the Registered Paletot till themsetves satisfied of its being perfect, and that when used as a pardessus, riding or walking, or as summer frock, the above firm might pledge a reputation, which, g +ined by matured skill and honoured by royal patronage, is of some standing. This they can do with safety ; as their new introduction, they respectigly submit, will not compromise that characteristic of an English gentleman, the unassumed neatness of his attire. As a wide extended sale is sought, the very moderate price of Two Guineas is fixed. Respectable firms will alone be treated with relative to an agency for the sale of the Registered Faletot, to whom alone a discount can be allowed. There being a large and increasing demand, many are kept ready in the extensive warerooms, 114, Regent-street, four doors north of Quadrant. CAUTION TO CONSUMERS.—DRY GAS METERS. DEFRIES'S DRY METERS have successfully stood the test. six years' trial. Among the 10,000 in use, they have been adopted by the official authorities of the Houses of Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office, Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other Club-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of gas have passed through some of these meters without regula tion er repair, mid which are still working to the entire satisfaction of the gas company and consumers. All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are invited to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from the use of Defries's Dry Meter, but, to prevent the substitution of im perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his meters.

After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom I de rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend, to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your 4s. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found my hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since.

Such a co lossal undertaking perhaps was never before contemplated.

The first election of annuitants to this invaluable In- stitution was celebrated last evening by a public dinner, at the City of London Tavern. The election of two annuitants took place in the early part of the day—Mr. Thomas Hankey, jun., being in the chair. These _ _ _ aunuitants,undertlie rrovisions which regulate this stitution, will be entitled to 151. a year, a - sum small in itself, but no small addition to the income of the wife of a deceased clerk, whose emolument dies with himself. It is with regret that we have to state that, in conse quence of ill health, the treasurer, John Abel Smith, Esq., M.P., was unable to attend, but his place was most ably filled by his brother, Mr. Martin T. Smith. _ _ Although nis - Institution was founded in 1840, and has at' aired such success as to leave no doubt of the assurance of its existence, there has been, until Wednesday evening, no celebration of any anniversary by a public dinner. The meeting of Wednesday night must be considered as a stimulus to further exertions on the part of those uho are the friends and well-wishers of the Institution, surrounded as they were by some of the first merchants of London, and honoured by the com pany of the late Governor of the Bank of England (W. COtton, Esq.), Christopher Pease, Esq., George Pollard, Esq., Oliver Pile, Esq., J. Fletcher, Esq., Lestock P. Wilson, Esq., D. P. Chapman, Esq., Rev. Marsland, James Mackillop, Esq., John Nicholson, Esq., Liverpool; David W. Wire, Esq , D. B. Chapman, Esq., Sir John Rae Reid, Sir J. Lubbock, Daniel Mildred, Esq., Frederick Huth, Esq., T. Tooke, Esq., F.R.S.; Thomas Hankey, jun., Esq., E. H. Palmer, Samuel Gregson, Esq., R. Durant, Esq., Sir John Hall, M. L. Anderdon, Esq., James W. Gilbert, Esq., Child, Esq., Dr. Sheridan, William Lyall, Esq., Robert Lyall, Esq., Geo. Hankey, Esq., Thomas Dunn, Esq., C. Barton, Esq., Wm. Since, Esq., Alfred Smee, Esq., F.R.S., and several other gentlemen of great in fluence. The ladies too did not forget to grace this auspicious meeting, and their appearance was hailed with the most enthusiastic plaudits. This was the fourth anniversary of this invaluable institution, and at a moderate computation not less than from 250 to 300 gentlemen sat down to a dinner that did the greatest credit to Messrs. Bathe and Breach. The cloth having beeen withdrawn, and "Non Nobis Domino" most effectively sung by the vocalists present, Messrs. Sporle, Bamford, Bruton, Lloyd and Pyne, The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of the Queen. It had been well said by a Noble Lord that many were illustrious by courtesy, and others by their deeds ; he thought among the latter class they might place their gracious Sovereign at the head.—(Great cheering.) She was ennobled not only by her high station, but by the kindness and the feeling that she showed towards her subjects.—(Cheers.) The toast was drank amid the most rapturous ap plause, after which the National Anthem was sung in excellent style by the vocalists present. The health of the Queen Dowager was drank with great enthusiasm. Glee—" Lady of Beauty." The health of Prince Albert and all the Royal Family was drank amid much applause. Glee—" Star of Brunswick." " The Army and Navy" was drank with three times three. Duet, " Soldier and Sailor," by Messrs. Ransford and Lloyd. The CIIAIRDIAN then said, that having now done jus tice to the customary toasts connected with their national feelings, they must now go to business. He had now to propose " Prosperity to the Provident Cl e rks' Associa tion." He must first express his deep regret that an ac cident had occurred to his relative, who had ever felt a great interest in the society, which prevented him from taking the chair that evening. He fe7t it the more because he felt assured that he was far more able than he was to advocate the claims of the Society, and to enforce upon those present who were not yet enrolled as its members the value of its usefulness and the truth of its necessity. —(Cheers.) The objects of the Association were twofold and though many present were well acquainted with its details, he thought it was his duty to call the atten tion f the meeting to what the real objects of the Society were. The first object was that of a Life Assurance Company, enabling every one that was a subscriber, at a small premium, to insure his life for the benefit of his family and survivors. The second object was, to afford temporary relief in case of temporary difficulty ; and, third, permanent relief in case of con firmed illness and decay. It was also part of the system of the Society to give permanent annuities to the widows of those clerks who had been subscribers, and who had died in indigence. Now, with respect to the first sub scription, it ought to be remembered that it was only one guinea per annum. He thought, of all persons, the clerks of the City of London were the persons requiring most to be benefited. They were all affected. By having an an nuity they had au annual income ; and they could not forget that with their death their remuneration would cease, and their wives and families would be left with out any support. The Association had been hitherto but little known ; it had excited but little interest in the City, and from his own knowledge he was aware, that not only the great houses in the metropolis had taken no notice of it, but they had even told those whom they em ployed that it was not worthy of their support. — (Hear, hear.) He was, however, happy to say that on that day a great exception in that respect had taken place in two cases—(Het.r, hear)—in the case of Messrs. Jones, Lloyd, and Co , and the Messrs. Cran ford and Co , both of whom had subscribed one hun dred guineas each—(Great cheering)—and, when he added that, on the same day, the widows of two clerks had been elected to the receipt of pensions of 15/. a year each, he thought that no one would deny to him that the Society was worthy of support.--(Hear, hear.) He thought he might congratulate the present company on the improved condition of the Society. It was, however, to the subscribers, and to themselves alone, hear.) tha TheyttheAss must ociatio honht onadtloy fookfor u psubscribe themselves, but they must encourage and ai l i t d w e a n s de th a e vou h r . to I t e o a r r , a l i Ise: ther. obtain tai the n Society, fd possible, o s s o s . rble(l, clerks, not only in the metropolis, but in other parts of There .country, to a higher grade in society.--(Hear.h)ot influenced single body in society that was u re en w ce a d s hardly the persons whose interests they were then met to support. —(Hear.) He had very sincere pleasure in again call ing on them for the greatest exertions on their part in support of this is Instituti on , an d i n conc l us i on h e b egge d to propose " Prosperity to the Provid e nt Cl e rk s ' M u tual Benefit Association, and may it continue and flourish for ever."—(Loud cheers.) Mr. THOMAS, the Chairman of the Board of Manage ment, expressed his acknowledgments for the way in he felt proud in stating that he was the first to put hiss hand to paper with regard to the promotion of this ex c.-Mont Institution—(Great cheering)—and if he (the Chairman) had assisted in forwarding the hilarity of the moeting, he had received the only reward he asked for.--(Cheering,) Song—" The Merry Gipsy Band." The CHAIRMAN then gave the " next toast, which was " Sir J. Hall and the Stewards. Sir J. HALL returned thanks. It was important, in his opinioii, to keep up the spirit of the meeting of that day, and in order to do so, he thought the best course to be pursued would be to put down the names of the Stewards for the ;next year.—(Great cheering.) The tarot having been duly responded to, The CITAIRMIN proposed " The health of Sir J. Halt and the Stewards elect"—(Great cheering.) Sir J. Alit again returned thanks. Mr. THOMAS HAMMY then rose to propose the toast of " The Press." In doing so he felt bound to state that the Society had not more sincere friends than that body.(Great cheering.) The press of London had always pointed out the benefits that were to be derived from the Institution, and they had done more, they had pointed out the course that ought to be pursued by its members.—(Great cheering.) He thought that the As sociatirm owed a deep debt of gratitude to those gentle men who unsought had given so favourable an opinion of the Institution and its merits.—(Cheers.) There were no doubt many members of the press present, but he could not but allude to one in particular, who sat at his left hand, because he had done all he could for the benefit of the Institution.—(Great cheering.) He al luded to Dr. Sheridan, the editor of the Morning Adver tiser, a man whom be bad no doubt in saying was t he friend of humanity, and the inteligent advocate for the happiness of the whole human race.—(Cheers.) The " Health of Dr. Sheridan and the Press," was then drank amid the most enthusiastic cheers. Dr. SHERIDAN then rose to return thanks He was. proud of the manner in which his name had been asso ciated on that occasion with the press. It was a power ful engine—one that was calculated to do greatgood if it were properly employed—and one that might do great evil if misapplied.—(Hear, hear.) He begged in the outset to correct an error which had been inadvertently made by the Hon. Gentleman who had proposed the toast. He was not so fortunate as to be the proprietor of the Morning Advertiser—he wished be were so.— -(A laugh.). He only held the humble office of editor of that journal, but in that capacity, in havikg the opportunity of giving free expression to those' opinions and principles which, in his conviction, were best calculated to advocate the political, moral,. and social improvement of mankind, he felt more pride than if he were the proprietor of the most profitable journal of the day, which would prove ready to sell its influence to the highest bidder, and, sacrifice its high mission to individual purposes.—(Hear, hear,) He felt proud of being surrounded at that lestive board by gentlemen who were the representatives of the com merce of England, and to whom England was mainly indebted for the proud position which she now occupied among the nations of the earth.—(Hear, hear.) The press had an important duty to perform. It was the em bodiment of the public sentiment, and whatever obloquy it might suffer under, t.r whatever slight it might re ceive, if the gentlemen belonging to it only did their duty by it, it would be in a different position from that in which it was at present.—(Hear, hear.) It was not merely the editors of the public journals that had arduous duties to perform in connexion with them. As with the drama so with the press—there were different departments. The abilities of Shakspeare were and are indisputable, but as a performer he was not distinguished. Garrick and Kean, incomparable as actors, never added to their fame in the capacity of authors. And so with the press. There were arduous and honourable duties to be performed in its several tie partments. The reporters of these journals—especially the Parliamentary reporters—had onerous duties to exe cute.—(Hear, hear.) Many of these gentlemen, stimu lated by a glorious self-devotion, did not hesitate to leap from the gallery into the body of the House of Com mons—to rush through it into the House of Lords, and there, even at the present moment, threaten to Assault the woolsack itself.---(Hear, hear, and a laugh.) Yet these individuals neglected and forgot that Press, which was the very source from which their greatness sprung. —(Hear.) He begged again to thank them for the coin.- pliment which they had paid him in associating his name with the Press, and to assure them that no effort on his part should be wanting in future to merit the honour that they had that evening conferred upon him.--(Hear.) " The Health of the Ladies" was drank amid great cheering. The Chairman then left the chair, which was taken by Mr. Thomas, the Chairman of the Board of Manage ment, who, upon assuming the office, stated that there was one toast that had been omitted by their late worthy Chairman, and that was, " The Health of the Medical Officers of the Institution." He considered that the Association was under great obligations to them for having performed most onerous duties for the last four years gratuitously.—(Cheers.) The toast was given amid bud cheers. Mr. SMEE returned thanks. He believed that there was no Institution more deserving of support than the present, and his earnest hope was that, in the words of Scripture, "it might last from generation to generation." —(Great cheering.) In conclusion, he begged to pro pose the health of their now Chairman, without whose exertions he believed they would not have had the dinner they had had that day, and that the Institution would have long ceased to exist, and have become only a subject for the historian. The toast, together with that of the health of the Managing Committee, was drank amid great applause. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks. He believed that the foundation on which the Society rested was a firm, a solid, and substantial one, and that the exertions that had been made on his part, and those connected with him were only of secondary consideration.—Cries of " No, no.") He thought that now the value of the In stitution had not only been appreciated by the clerks themselves, but by the great houses in the City of London.—(Cheers.) Although the progress of the In stitution had been slow, he believed it was destined to be one of the largest and most influential in the City of London.—(Cheers.) He could assure them that the Committee of Management had worked for it—and they had not only lost their time but their money.— (Laughter.) He begged to return his sincere thanks to the meeting on behalf of those who were associated with him and himself.—(Cheers.) Mr. THOMAS proposed " The health of the Secretary, Dr. Mullinder," and eulogised the ability and energy of that gentleman. They could never too highly appreciate the value of that gentleman's services. —(Cheers.) Dr. MITLLENDER, in expressing his acknowledgments, said that the compliment conferred on him was as great a one as he had ever received.—(Hear.) Character was money—but money would never make character.— (Hear.) He trusted that the exertions which he here tofore displayed in their cause would on l y b e a prelude to what was to follow.—(Hear, hear.) The Chairman of the Board of Management, in the course of the evening, announced that the subscription amounted to upwards of 1,0001. 25 . guineas , Amongst the sub scribers were 3. A. S m ith, M.P , n gu s ineas , Baron li Rothschild 251., Messrs. ankey 10 5/., the Guarantee S oc i e ty 10 guineas, Meaess, Sir Hall 51., Cranfo rd and Co. 100 L, Jones, Ll o yd, an d J ones 100/., Overard, Gurney, and Co. 50 guineas, Smith, Payne, and Smith 50 guineas, Dr. Sheridan, two g uineas annually. The evening was sp en t i n a most agreeable manner, and the vocalists, Messrs. Pyne, Lloyd, Sporle, and Ransford, together with Mr. Bruton, under whose di rection the other gentlemen were,:contributed by their efforts to add to the enjoyment. We must not forget, on concluding this report, to speak of the efficient manner in which the younger Took so ably performed the duty of toast-master. It put us in mind of his father's juvenile days. It is understood in the City that the King of the Belgians signed on Monday the decree for the Louvain and Je meppe Railway, with the extension to Diest.
