From James Blundell, Esq, M.D. : " I have now tried for some time the Messrs. yolomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses, and have experienced much benefit ; they are far preferable to my vision than ally other Lens ; the relief is very great, in particular by candle light, and in course of use for a length of time the clearness of the transparency brings every object very distinct; they can be fully appreciated only by those who, like myself, may stand in need of them. " JAMES BLUNDELL, M.D. " No 1, Great George-street, Westminster." " We, the undersigned, have been fur some time making use of Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses; the astonishing relief they afford to imperfect vision gives them the decided prefer. once to every other kind of Lens—the clearness of the transparency brings every object very distinct, and enables individuals to view the most minute particle with perfect accuracy. These Lenses are par ticularly pleasant by candle light, being cooling to the sight, and softening the bright and brilliant lights. George G. Sigmond, Esq.-, M.D , 23, Dover-street. J.

M'MANUS, Surgeon, 193, High Holborn, (after many years' research) has discovered a Lotion, by which he effectually cures the Rheumatism and the Rheumatic Gout, even in its last and most aggravated forms ; and so confident is he o f its success, that he requires no remuneration for conculting him unless a cure be effected.

It is not anticipated that a larger instalment than Si. per Share will be required to be paid up; and if a Charter be not applied for and obtained, a clause will, as in other Compani es recently established, be introduced into each Policy limiting the liability of each Proprietor to the amount of his Shares, whi c h , being the express contract of the parties insuring, will be bind ing upon them. A sufficient Capital for the purpose having been already subscribed, the Directors propose to commence business on or before the Ist of July next, and in order to avoid the unre stricted application for such of the Shares as are yet unappro priated, by persons not intending to become bona fide Pro prietors, they have resolved only to entertain applications made in the printed forms provided by them for that purpose, and accompanied by a deposit of 21. per Share, and they reserve to themselves the right of complying with or rejecting such ap plication, either in whole or in part ; the deposit to be returned if the application be rejected; but if accepted, to be placed to the credit of the applicant in respect of his Shares.

It is scarcely necessary to advert to the advantages which, in all transactions of magnitude a Company possesses over indi viduals ; but there is perhaps no undertaking to which this re mark applies with so much force as to Insurance of any desci ip tion. The stability and success of the many Life and Fire In surance Companies which exist in this Country, depend on no circumstances which donot equally apply to Marine Insurance. Until within the last few years, however, the Law .estrained all partnerships (except the Royal Exchange and the London Assurance Companies) from effecting this sr ecies of Assur ance. Since this exclusive right has ceased to exist, a few other Marine Insurance Companies have been established in London, and the aggregate paid-up Capital of the whole amounts to less than a million and a half, while the number of Fire and Life Insurance Companies is very great and is in creasing. Some opinion may be formed of the success which has hi therto attended the Marine Insnrance Companies above men tioned, from the following Table, showing that their Stock bears a considerable premium ; viz. : BENEFITS.

AT a MEETING of PLANTERS, MER CHANTS, and others interested in JAMAICA, con vened by Public Advertisement, " To take into consideration the New Bill now before the House of Commons to provide for the enactment of certain Laws in Jamaica," and holden at Willis's Rooms, St. James's, the 4th of June, 1839, The Right Hon. the Earl of HAREWOOD in the Chair, It was unanimously resolved 1. That this Meeting heard with great satisfaction that her Majesty's Ministers had abandoned the Bill introduced into the House of Commons, intituled " An Act to make temporary provision for the Government of Jamaica." 2. That this Meeting considered that its provisions were subversive of the Constitution of Jamaica, dangerous to the welfare of the Colony, and most injurious to the interests of those interested in Jamaica. 3. That it was and is the opinion of this Meeting that by evincing a spirit of conciliation towards the Assembly, and a respect for the constitutional rights and privileges of that body, and by abstaining from Parliamentary legislation on this occa sion, a course would have been pursued better calculated to acquire the confidence of the Assembly, to induce them, if her Majesty's Governor were directed to convene them, to exercise their legislative functions, and secure that legislation which would best promote the welfare of all classes in the Colony, and satisfy the just expectations of the Parliament and people of Great Britain. 4. That this opinion was communicated to her Majesty's Ministers, and was accompanied by the assurance that this Meeting would cordially co-operate in promoting these objects; and the communications of this Meeting with their corre spondents in Jamaica have been in accordance with that assu rance. 5. That this Meeting have heard with surprise and alarm that a second Bill has been introduced into the House of Com mons, intituled "An Act to provide for the enactment of cer tain laws in the Island of Jamaica." 6. That in the opinion of this Meeting such second Bill, so far from tending to promote, according to the expressed antici pations of this Meeting, the confidence of the Assembly or People of Jamaica, cannot fail to excite the g rea t es t dissatisfac tion amongst all classes in that Colony, which dissatisfaction will be much increased by the consideration of the effect of the Bill, which enables either the Governor or Council, by dis agreeing to the measures proposed by the Assembly, to suspend their functions, and transfer them exclusively to themselves. 7. That the grounds stated in the preamble are wholly un tenable. That the second Bill is utterly subversive of the Constitution of Jamaica, inasmuch as it places the Assembly in a position wholly incompatible with the enjoyment of its pecu liar and exclusive rights and privileges, as the popular bran c h of the Legislatu re , an d even w i t h the free and independent exercise of its legislative powers. 8. That its evident tendency is to degrade the Assembly in the estimation of all classes, and must render inefficient the exercise of its legislative functions. 9. That nothing could be more calculated to raise the jea lousy and offend the feelings of the colony of Jamaica than adopting as models for legislative interference with them Orders in Council made for the regu'.ation of the Crown Colonies, where another system of government exists, and not the common law of England, but codes of foreign law prevail. 10. That these resolutions bt transmitted to her Majesty's Government, and that they be printed in the public news papers. _ )1. That these resolutions be embodied in a petition, and .46.* ....siv r .seeh.iwa. - rliessair et Lords 1:3. the Earl of Harevrood, and to the House of Commons by Mr. Godson. , _ (Signed) HA REWOOD, Chairman.

ALLEGED MURDER AND INCENDIARISM. Yesterday morning, a few minutes before one o'clock, the inhabitants of Prince's -street, St. Ann's, Soho, were thrown into the utmost alarm, by the discovery of the premises of Mr. Westwood, watch and clock maker, No. 35, Prince's-street, being on fire. Immediately the fire, which was in the back parlour, was discovered, several persons entered the room, which is for the present used as a temporary bedroom for Mr. W., who sleeps up stairs, when a horrid spectacle presented itself. The unfortunate gentleman was lying on the floor, dressed, with his throat cut from car to ear, and quite dead, the bed and bedding burnt, and the fire communicating to the flooring and wainscoting. The fire en g ines promptly arrived, and sue ceeded in extinguishing the fire before any considerable damage was sustained. The room was most minutely examined, but not any instrument could be found with which the fatal deed was perpetrated. Mr. West wood was watch-maker to the Duke of Sussex. The last time the unfortunate individual was seen alive was about twelve o'clock on Monday night, standing at his door ; shortly after which he retired to rest. His wife lives in the house, but does not sleep in the same room as her husband ; and about half-past twelve she was aroused by a smell of fire. She hastened down stairs to awake her husband, when she discovered his bed clothes on fire. Alarm was instantly given, and the police discovered the unhappy man with his throat cut, his face much bruised, and his eyes completely blackened. There is not at pre sent the slightest clue to the murderer, or even a conjec ture of the motive to the diabolical act. It appears that Mrs. Westwood retired to bed about I l o'clock cn Monday night, leaving her husband sitting up, as was his usual practice, reading the newspaper, in a room adjoining, and between the shop and the back parlour, where the body was found. The street-door was perfectly secured by the servant girl, who went to bed soon after her mistress. She sleeps on one of the top rooms of the house. No alarm was heard or given, until Mrs. West wood imagined that she heard a scuffling below, end shortly after the street-door slammed to. She afterwards was alarmed by bearing several groans, and she then called to the servant girl, who descended with her mistress down stairs, and discovered that the house was on fire, and that the street door was on the latch. Gilbert, the constable, then came up, end the females were placed in safety, and kept unconscious of the fate of Mr. Westwood. The body of the deceased was not found in the room where he was in the habit of reading, but by the side of a press-bedstead in the back parlour facing the door which leads into the ante-room that separates the parlour from the shop. The furniture in the room was not displaced, nor was there any trace of a scuffle having taken place. The deceased's spectacles were found on a table in the ante-room covered with blood—they were shut up, and a number of the Morning Herald newspaper was lying on the floor. The officers next proceeded to search for the instrument with which the act must have been perpetrated, and a common table knife with a white handle was discovered in a drawer in the ante-room. The blade was much stained with blood, and a portion of human hair was adhering to the point—these drawers are from ten to twelve feet from where the body was found. Another very important point connected with this melancholy case is the discovery of a heavy iron sash weight, which the Inspector picked up in the passage behind the street door. The deceased was in good circumstances, and of a cheer ful disposition. Throughout the day, a body of police guarded the house, which was surrounded by a vast con course of persons, and the knife, spectacles, sash weight, and the body of the deceased will not be further disturbed until the Coroner's jury shall have had the opportunity of witnessing the position in which they were respectively found. An inquest was held last evening on the body, and after some witnesses bad been examined, it :was adjourned till this day. CONCLUSION OF THE DIARY OF THE TIMES OF GEORGE IV.-The unprecedented sensation created by the first volumes of this extraordinary work seems likely to be renewed by the appearance of the second and con cluding portion, which has just been published. The new portions of the " Diary" present us with at least an equal profusion of the Court gossip and scandal of the day to which it alludes, while the epistolary part includes features of singular interest and curiosity. Besides original letters from many of the most distinguished literary and political characters of the day, we have several from the Princess Charlotte herself (addressed to the writer of the " Diary") which convey a delightful impression of the character of the lamented Princess, while they disclose some extraor dinary facts connected with the persecution of her unhappy mother. The work also contains a whole series of original letters from the last named unfortunate lady. CRANMER.--The new novel which is on the point of making its appearance, under the title of " Cran rner," will, if we are not misinformed, excite considerable attention, no less from the singularity of its story than from the original style in which it is written. It is the production of a member of the celebrated IZoxburghe Club, and a large proportion of the incidents and characters are said to be not merely "founded on," but strictly true to the life. It is understood, notwithstanding its title, to be a tale of the present day, and there is said to be a pleaeant oddity about the style, and a display of knowledge, both of life and books, which will give the work currency in quar ters where this class of composition seldom penetrates. CHILDRENS' FRIEND SOCIETY.---COMMIT TAI, OF COMPLAINANT.-At the Marylebone police-office yesterday, the boy, Edward Trubshaw, whose name has, within the last two months, been so frequently before the public, in connection with various disclosures made at this office relative to the proceedings of the Children's Friend Society, was brought up in custody and placed at the bar, before Mr. Rawlinson and Lord Montford, on two charges of felony. The charges having been supported by suffi cient evidence, the prisoner, who had nothing -, to say in his defence, was fully committed for trial on both charges. The Py)ades sloop of war arrived from Africa this afternoon. She brings important intelligence from the coast respecting the slave trade, a new system having sprung up for the purpose of eluding the vigilance 6f out cruisers under the protection of the American flag. It appears that American vessels are taken to the Havaanah, and sold, together with their papers, for employment in the nefarious slave traffic; they are there manned by regu• hr slave crews, and sailed under American colours. 'Nwo of these vessels have lately been captured by the 2nglish cruisers, and so complete were their American credesp, tials, that, in the absence of any representative liam the United States to Sierra Leone, the Commodore as seat them under charge of a man.of.way to New York, in order that the circumstance may be investigated by the American Government, and their assistance obtained to put a stop to such practices. The Plyades has lost but one man oh the coast ; she' kings, however, distressing accounts from so:ne 4f the other ships, among whom the loss of life has been most serious, both of officers and men.
