Mr. GUNTER asked if the ID( the Holborn and Finsbury division was 1. pursued by that Court ? The CHAIRMAN—No ; they contracted by the job. Mr. LE BRETON—Which was the better way? Mr. LESLIE then proposed a resolution, to the ef fect that, owing to the vague and imperfect manner in which the bills of particulars had been Mee, they containing many items not likely to be required, that Court determined to receive fresh sontracts for their works in the Ranelag h and BCEoEucnifte,rasn-cdreesek. district. Mr. GUNTER seconded the r6.7lution. An amendment was moved by Ail. tender be conded, that Messrs. Hazlitt and Bonnie , accepted. A lengthened discussion arose upon the quesilen, Mr. Leslie explaining, at considerable length, the different modes in which contracts were made by the different Commissions. He adverted WI the facts, that the lowest candidates on that day had reduced their tender to an amount of some 2601. from that which they had put in a fortnight before; that there were only three candidates in all, arising, he had no doubt, from the discouragement of public compe tition by the system pursued in that Court. He had the Bow-street sewer to have found that, suppo;!ng t o ale Holborn and Finsbury con .- tract, ng alone would be about been built according tract, that the saving in digii 3501. That was surely enough to make them pause ere they proceeded further in the matter. Perhaps a clause in that Commission's Act of Parliament could satisfactorPy explain the better management of affairs there. It was enacted, under a penalty of 1001., that no person interested in the question at issue should sit in that Court. The Hon. Commissioner then gave the relative depths of works done at the rate of ' 18s. 6d. per foot run in the Holborn and Finsbury divktion, and argued therefrom that contracts should be taken by "the job," as more likely to encourage competition. The CHAIRMAN said there was no parallel to be drawn between the works done in Bow-street and the line to which Mr. Leslie had alluded. The average depth of the Holborn and Finsbury works was sixteen feet, while in Bow-street the average depth . was twenty-four feet, and that, too, through ground of the most difficult character—a running sand. Mr. Ben nett had been a great loser by the Holborn works, and the fact was apparent, for the second tender was greatly higher. It would have been impossible for him to continue the works at those prices. But he (the Chairman) maintained that no public body was justified in getting their works done out of the pockets of the contractors. There was another fact in the system pursued by the Holborn and Finsbury district which materially reduced the expenses of the con tractor. If he were to use old bricks, and he was allowed to do so, they would charged only 20s. a thousand, and, in the great quantity'of bricks used, this made a most essential difference to him-- Mr. BEECH—Of course, when new brias would be charged 365. The CHAIRMAN—Then, again, he was allowed to use the pit sand instead o f sharp river sand, and this also made an important difference. He (the Chair man) knew an eminent builder, and he had said t• him that he had some few years ago been allowed to use pit sand in one of his buildings, and the mortar was at that time actually rotten ; and so dissatisfied was he with the result, that he stated he would rather g i ve n in that day by Messrs. haiT lost in the first instance 1 ,0 001 . out of his own pocket than used ii. Th e C hairm a n was of o p inion that the e and te ß n o d n e n r in was a mocierztte one, and should be accepted. The amendment and the original motion were then put, when the former was carried by a majority - of sir. Messrs. Hazlitt and Bonnin were then called in, and informed that their tender was accepted ; but these gentlemen begged to withdraw if the whole works in the district could not be guaranteed them. Their resignation was received, when-- Mr. LESLIE again urged that further competition should be invited. Mr. Woon moved, and Mr. LOCKE seconded, that the next tender should be accepted. The motion was carried, but Mr. Todd resigned the contract on the same ground that the first parties had. Mr. LESLIE renewed his application, but again un successfully, for it was carried that the third and only candidate should have the offer of the works. He also declined to accept them, and for the same reason. Mr. LESLIE inquired whether, under these un4 paralleled circumstances, it would not be worth their while to try the plans he had all that day been ad vocating. It was very evident that the bills of par ticulars were either not understood, or looked at with tlit Nnsidgi %VA suspicion. The CHAIRMAN was of opinion that the Court was degraded in the eyes of all contractors, by its never- After much recrimination, the Court adjourned, it being understood that the subject of the contracts should be considered again next Friday.

About six months ago I found my hair getting daily more weak and thin, and much discoloured, from a practice I had adopted of weft,* it continually ; fearing that I should lose it entirely, and hearing of the efficacy of your Macassar Oil, I hays for some time past constantly used it, and the result is, that my hair is now perfectly restored and much improved in appearance and colour, having becom e thick, dark, and glossy ; it also curls freely without the use of paper, which it never did before. To al l my friends I have warmly recommended your.Macassar Oil as an wain t restorative and preservative for the hair. As I have will not an objection to see my name i n p rint, I beg you publish it; but you are at liberty to show this letter,' or make any other use you please of it, and refer applicants to me, if necessary, in proof of the efficacy of your Ma cassar Oil.—Your obedient servant, Rowland's Macassar Oil preserves and reproduces the Hair ; prevents it from falling off or turning Grey ; Changes Grey Hair to its Original Colour ; frees it from Scurf and Dandruff, and makes it beautifully soft and curly.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 6, We regard the work before us, " The Silent Friend,' as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of com plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffbr_ ing from indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages." —Age and Argus. " The Authors of The Silent Friend,' seem to be thoroughly conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fall to recommerid it to a careful perusal."—Era.

THE DIRECTORS of the NATIONAL MER CANTILE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY hereby give notice, that an EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING of the PROPRIETORS of the said Society will be held at the Office of the Society, Arthur-street West, London-bridge, on the 29th day of November instant, at Twelve o 'Clock at noon, pur. suant to a Requisition signed by Proprietors holding upward• of 1,000 Shares in the Capital of the Society, for the following pur poses :—To consider the propriety of disposing of the concern to some one of the older Offices in London, in consequence of certain attempts having been made to wrest the office out of the hands of the Original Proprietors and Founders of the Institution ; or the rropriety of Dissolving the Company forthwith, with a view to protect the interests of the Policy-holders and all parties concerned. To the PROPRIETORS and POLICY-HOLDERS in the NATIONAL MERCANTILE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY. Gentlemen. THE Proprietors and Policy-holders in the above Society are respectfully informed that the .arcittsement for R Meeting to dispose of, or to dissolve, the Society is issued by the Directors in consequence of a Requisition signed by a large body of Proprietors, expressive of the sentiments of three-fifths of the entire body, calling a Meeting to remove certain of the Directors from their office. The Society, if under a manage ment possessing the confidence of the Proprietary, was never in a more promising condition, and it only remains to remove the present obstacles to its progress to make it one of the largest and most successful offices of the day. On behalf of three of the Directors, and three-fifths of the Proprietary, I respectfully request that the Policy-holders and their friends will put the proper construction on the motives of those Directois who have got up the requisition, and called the meeting to dispose of, or dissolve, the Society. N.B. The Deed of Settlement requires four fifths of the votes of qualified Proprietors to dissolve the Society, whilst Proprietors representing three-fifths of such votes have already signified to the Directors their wish for their retirement, and their determination to maintain the integrity of the Society. I am, Gentlemen, your:most obedient humble servant, JOHN L. EVANS, Secretary to the Committee of Proprietors. 1, Wardrobe.plaee, DOCtOre-COMMOIIS, Nov. 7, 1844. FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE.

LAURIE said that nothing could be more gratifying than the manner in which the procession, en the day of the visit of the Queen, was arranged and regulated. The whole of the proceedings of the day were indeed the theme of unlimited approbation but the members of that Court felt that without the aid of the Government, and some noble and distinguished person=, they could not have succeeded so effectuallylin doing honour to her Majesty. His Grace the Duke of Wellington most promptly gave his authority in aid of the efforts of the Court; and the officers and sol diers employed on the occasion acted with the greatest zeal and temper, so that no occurrence of a disagree able kind took place amongst the numerous multi tudes assembled to hail the visit of the Queen. — (Hear, hear.) It gave him great pleasure, too, to state that by the judgment and energy of the City Police Commissioner, the police force were rendered most effective, and were most deserving of the cor dial notice of the Court.—(Hear.) Sir Peter Laurie then moved that the thanks of the Court be given to his Grace the Duke of Wellington, for the aid ren dered by him on the 28th of October, by ordering the attendance of troops, &c., on the occasion of her Ma jesty's most gracious visit on the opening of the Royal Exchange.—(Loud applause.) He also moved that the thanks ,of the Court be given to Sir George Murray ; to the Benchors of the Temple; to Messrs. Child and Co., the bankers ; to Lieutenant-Colonel Cox, and the officers of the Artillery Company ; to the Commissioner of the City Police, &c., &e. The votes of thanks were unanimously agreed to; and Sir PETER LAURIE said he experienced peculiar pleasure in bearing testimony to the admirable plan adopted by Mr. Harvey . for keeping the streets quiet and orderly, and he rejoiced to find that the Corn• missioner was so extremely well qualified to manage and control so large a force.--(Cheers.) Alderman LUCAS, in seconding the motions of thanks, heartily complimented Mr. Harvey upon his skill and activity. Alderman WOOD said that the approbation thus ex pressed was well deserved. The Commissioner had been obliged to employ a number of additional men on the day of the Queen's visit, and, in order to maintain order more effectually, he dressed the newly sworn constables in the old clothes of the force, so that the apparent numbers of the police operated in preventing anything like confusion amongst the vast crowds.—(Hear, hear.) Sir P. LAURIE said that at the last Court of Alder men the letter of Sir James Graham, announcing the gratification felt by her Majesty at her reception and entertainment, had been read. It was his wish that, in the narrative of the proceedings, that leit'r should be introduced. The LORD MAYOR intimated that a Committee was engaged in considering the subject, and that, no doubt, there would be no omission of any circum• stance worthy of record.—(Hear, hear.) Alderman Wool) wished that the letter written by Sir James Graham to the Lord Mayor, on the subject of doing away with the evening sitting at the Central Criminal Court, should be entered on the minutes of the Court. He submitted a motion on the subject, and Alderman Ilumphery seconded the motion. The LORD MAYOR most decidedly objected to the proposition, which at once fell to the ground. The Court then adjourned, and proceeded to Guild hall, for the purpose of holding the ceremony of swearing in the new Lord Mayor. COURT OF SEWERS. A special meeting of the Court of Sewers for the City of Westminster, and part of Middlesex, was held yesterday at the Sewers-office, Greek street, Soho square, Thomas L. Donaldson, Esq., in the chair. The most important business of the day, namely, to receive tenders for the works on the Ranelagh and Counters-creek districts, and to take such steps thereon as may be deemed expedient, having been brought be fore the Court by the Chairman, an animated dis cussion ensued, upon a proposition of Mr. Leslie's to return the tenders unbroken to the respective parties, and to throw nn the works upon the line to further competition. the motion „..... -.1g.„,,t‘,1 1 7 negatived. 1 and the different tenders—three in all—having been opened and compared, it was announced that Messrs. Ha zlitt and Bonnin's was the lowest. On the question that their tender be accepted, Mr. LESLIE objected that by the Court's present system of contracting, they were paying twice as much as was paid per foot run by the Holborn and Finsbury division. He had been to the neighbouring Commission for the purpose of certifying this point ; he had got the fullest particulars of their mode of doing business there, and he had ascertained, beyond the possibility of a doubt, that for every foot of sewerage put in by the Court of Westminster, the Holborn and Finsbury division could build two. That was a matter of some importance to the public. By a continuance of the present defective system they were losing sight of the public interests, and damaging their own character, as a public Court, to an enor mous extent. It was a singular and a striking fact, that the same person did the works on that district es in their own—he meant Mr. Bennett, the late con tractor. What did he charge them, and what that Court ? Why, he charged the Holborn and Fins bury district only 131. 15s. per rod, in cement, but his price to that Court was 151. 10s. Mr. ALLMON would remind Mr. Leslie that Mr. Bennett was not their contractor now, neither was he present in Court. Mr. Linn thought the fact that that gentleman had contracted with both Courts was a very im portant one. He (Mr. Leslie) had in his pocket a copy of the contract, and the prices for which Mr. Bennett had tendered for a particular line of road, and that price was greatly under what that Court paid. The CHAIRMAN—But Mr. Bennett lost several hundred pounds by that contract, and the Court made the loss up to him afterwards. Mr. LESLIE would suppose that correct. It did not vitiate his argument. They did, indeed, allow him 2001., but that was in consequence of an ob struction by the Regent's Canal, which had not been before contemplated. But what were the prices ? Why there, 18s. 6d. per foot lineal, while in that Court they paid 21. 2s. 10d. Was he not right, then, in saying that they in Westminster paid double to what they paid in Holborn ? The ramming in and filling in in Holborn was charged fourpence, butin that Court one shilling ; and that difference of price arose simply from their system of accepting contractors for the district, and the unfortunate bill of particulars which they had sent into the contracting parties. They were literally binding themselves hand and foot, and giving themselves up to the tender mercies of those persons. The Holborn and Finsbury dis trict had got seven tenders from respectable parties. Mr. Bennett's happened to be the lowest, and he was accepted ; but why, he asked, should Mr. Bennett charge them 151. 10s., and the Holborn district only 131. 15s. ? The CHAIRMAN thought Mr. Leslie was digressing from the question. Mr. Bennett was no longer a con tractor with that Court. Mr. LESLIE'S argument was directed against the system. The Court was that day going to choose a contractor in precisely a similar way to that which had produced those effects in the former case. The error waslin the bill of particulars sent out by that Court. The Commissioners, and the contractors also, were led aside by a fallacious statement, for many of the items placed in that bill were not wanted in their works. It was impossible that any Court could go on in such a state of things. How could, how would, they stand before the public with such an increased expenditure as compared with the neighbouring Commission ? It showed, at least, that there was something radically wrong in the whole system, which he (Mr. Leslie) would wish to see stopped before it went further. If it could be shown that his stratement was wrong, let them, in Heaven's name try the plan adopted in Hol born and Finsbury. He stood up there for the public interests, and he firmly believed that the wretched bill of particulars sent out to contractors was the cause of all the irregularity. The CHAIRMAN must really call the Hon. Com missioner's attention to the real question. The Court had already decided that that bill of particulars should be issued, and it was too late at that bow to animad vert upon it. Mr. LESLIE objected to the whole prices charged in these contracts, as they were so much higher than the neighbouring district. Let them try the plan adopted by the Holborn and Finsbury Commission, as it was self-evident that it was so much better than their own; and if they could save the public several hundred pounds, he (Mr. Leslie) did not doubt that they would thereby please all parties. The CHAIRMAN explained , that i n the line of sewer referred to by the Hon. Commissioner, the contractor had lost a considerable sum, and the proof that he had done so was best furnished by the fact that, in ten dering a second time, he was the highest of the can didates. To use a homely saying, he had burned his fingers, and was most anxious not to do the same a second time, MAGNAY. MATOIt.

MEREWtTHER. PURSUANT to a DECREE of the HIGH COURT of CHANCERY, made in a cause CORBYN against HER MAJESTY'S ATTORNEY-GENERAL, the NEXT OF KIN of MARY PHILIPPS, spinster, formerly of Halifax, Nova Scotia, In North America, afterwards in River-street, in the city of Bath, then of Great Russell-street, Bloomsbury, in the county of Middlesex, but late of - Boulogne-stir-31er, in the kingdom of France (who died at a very advanced age at Boulogne, in the month of December, 1842), living at her death, or the personal representatives of any of them who have since died, are by their solicitors, on or before the 12th day of January, 1845, to come in and prove their kindred, and make out their claims before Sir GIFFIN WILSON, one of the Masters of the said Court, at his Chambers, in Southampton-buildings, Chancery lane, London; or in default thereof, they will peremptorily be ex cluded the benefit of the said decree. The father of the said Mary Philipps was John Philipps, who carried on the bu;iness of a chemist and druggist at Halifax. afore said, from the years 1765 to 1800, and who died and was buried at Kensins',on, in the county of Middlesex, in the year 1801.

VIDWARD PRICE and CO. beg respectfully J to request that all parties wishing to purchase their COMPO SITE CANDLES will ask in the shops simply for " Price's Patent Candles." Since these have attracted public attention, many Imita tors have made candles, and called them by the name " Composite," used by Edward Price and Co. ; but the process by which the real Composite Candles are made, being a patent one ; and E. P. and Co. granting no licenses, none of these imitation candles are at all the came as the real ones. The chief properties of these latter are their burning, without snuffing, more brilliantly than the best wax, and their affording so large an amount of light, that they are cheaper, taking this into account, than the commonest tallow candles, one of them giving the light of three ordinary moulds. They may be had of most of the respectable tallow-chandlers throughout the kingdom, and are supplied to the trade wholesale by Edward Price and Co., Bel mont, Vauxhall ; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.

This, this is the day for a civic display, In London's remark ble City ; And, therefore, again. we take up the pen, Te welcome it in with a ditty. Such occasions as these are certain to please ; And all must pronounce them as splendid ; When they view the parade of the rich cavalcade, With pomp and with grandeur attended. Many thousands remember " the Ninth of November," With feelings of glowing delight, . And thren,, on this day, with a view to survey The beautiful popular sight. But what would they say to the civic display, While moving in stately progression, If MOSES and SON, with the hosts they have won, Were to join in the City procession? Then the armour of mail would little avail, And few with the sight would be won; Whilst " all" would admire the splendid attire, Produc'd by E. MOSES and SON. The Sheriff); and Mayer in habiliments rare, knd the Aldermen gaily bedight ; Would all be out-done by MOSES and SON, In such a remarkable sight. N.B.
