ING of GENTLEMEN, convened by public adver tisement to receive and take into consideration the Report of a Provisional Committee, relative to the propriety of forming and establishing a Company, under the title of " The British American Land Company," held at the London Tavern, the 9th February, 1632, G. R. ROBINSON, Esq., M.P. in the Chair ; Nathaniel Gould, Esq., the Chairman of the Provisional Committee, presented the Report, which being read, It was resolved unanimously,- That the Report be re ceived and adopted. That it is expedient to establish a Company, under the name and title of " The British American Land Com pany," with:a capital of 500,0001., to be raised by Shares of 50/. each. That the following Gentlemen be appointed a Commit tee to carry into effect the above object, with liberty to add to their number, and that it be referred to them to draw up a prospectus to be presented to the Shareholders, viz.._. as secretaries and treasurers of different societies and funds, but the Commissioner decided that he could only look upon such deposits as made by the individual, etcept he acted for an incorporated society. There were other cases in which persons had not claimed the interest on their deposits up to the time of the issu ing of the fiat. They were admitted to prove for their deposits, without being precluded from proving for the interest on a future occasion. The most important case, as far as concerned the amount at stake, was, however, the following : _ _ _ No. 12,298. LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 11, 1832. = Mr. Pratt tendered his affidavit, in proof of a debt of 6,0001. due on two bills of exchange for 3,06 Q/. each. Mr. Walford—l have to request, on the part of the = bankrupt, that proof of this debt may be delayed till he can be examined. The transaction out of which these bills arose originated in some negociations which Mr. Maberly had with Mr. da Silva, as the agent of the Brazilian Government for a loan to his principals. The first agreement drawn up fur the purposes of this loan, and in which Mr. da Silva was interested, was never com pleted. Afterwards another was entered into, completely superseding the former, and Mr. Maberly was applied to by Mr. da Silva to accept four bills of exchange for 3,0001. etch, two of them payable three months after date, and the two others at six months. They were all drawn in January, 1831. Mr. Maberly accepted them, and at the expiration of three months, thinkinz the loan was still to go on, paid them : but before those drawn at six months became due, tt revolution took place in Brazil, and Don Pedro abdicated. Mr. Maberly there fore wrote to the parties interested, that he should not pAy the bills, for reasons he had instructed his banker to note upon them when presented. Mr. da Silva was the son in-law of Mr. Pratt, and had passed the bills to hint, although it was agreed that they should not be nego tiated. When the bills were presented for payment at Masterman's, each was dishonoured, and a note to this effect appended_" This bill was accepted on account of a payment which was contingent on an event which did not take place; therefore the drawer has no claim upon Mr. Maberly, as it was agreed that it should not be nego ciated, and the endorsee was aware of all the circum stances, and that no valuable consideration has been re ceived by Mr. Maberly for the bill, neither has he any claim." Upon this Mr. Maberly was threatened with pro. ceedings at law, and he applied to 'Mr. Ft-tat:field to take steps to obtain an injunction to stop them, but the bill was not filed, no proceedings having been taken. Under these circumstances, he (Mr. Watford) hoped that proof of the debt would be delayed till there had been an opportunity of examining the bankrupt. Mr. F ONIILANQUE-Whenever you are prepared to in vestigate the matter, you may, tipon special application, have a private meeting for the purpose. A meeting was appointed for tts-morrow, to verify powers. Mr. Maberly was not present any part of the day. PRICE 7D. ARIGNA OFFICE, No. 9, LIVERPOOL-STREET LONDON. LIBRARY OF MODERN FICTION.

EVANS V. PALLISER. This was an action brought to recover compensation in damages for an injury done to the plaintiff's daughter, a fine little girl about eleven years of age, by the defendant's dog, which was described in the declaration as an animal of the bull species, of a fierce, ferocious, and mischievous nature, and as not having been muzzled or otherwise pro perly secured. Mr. Burr appeared in support of the plaintiff; and Mr. JERVIS and Mr. KELLY for the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff's daughter, Elizabeth Evans, had been engaged, on the 26th of May last, in cleaning a gutter in the rear of her father's house, and that in returning to the house she had to pass the door of the defendant's stable, in Union-street, Finsbury-square. The stable door, it was proved, was open at the time, and the dog, not having been properly secured, broke from his chain and rushed after the child, whom he overtook in her endeavour to escape, and inflicted a severe bite on her leg. The wound proved so serious that the parents of the child called in Mr. Elliott, a surgeon, to attend on her, and that gentleman at the end of five weeks, during which ■he was under his care, sent in his bill, for medicine and attendance, amounting to 181. 2s. 6d. The action was brought to recover this sum, together with additional ex pence's incurred in restoring the child to health. On behalf of the defendant, it was shewn that he had sent his own surgeon, Mr. Buchanan, to see the child occasionally, and wished;that he would be allowed to attend her altogether ; and further, that he had given employ ment to the plaintiff, who is a carpenter, in his packing case manufactory, as a compensation, in some measure, for the injury which his dog had inflicted on the plaintiff's child. The defendant, it was also stated, offered the plaintiff 51., as a consideration for the expenses incurred by the child's illness; but this the plaintiff rejected, as inadequate to meet his surgeon's demand, &c. Mr. Jeavis urged that the plaintiff might have had the gratuitous services of the defendant's surgeon; but this, Lord Lyndhurst said, should not at all affect the plaintiff's claim, who had a right to employ his own surgeon, in whom, perhaps, he had more confidence than he should have in any other. To shew that Mr. Elliott's demand was extravagant, Mr. Buchanan was called, and deposed that, in his judg ment, Si. would have been sufficient for the attendance and medicines given the child by Mr. Elliott. Another medical man, whose name we understood to be Ramsey, was called to examine the items in Mr. Elliott's bill, and said he considered the charges exorbitant. Lord LYNDHURST---Wilat, Sir, do you consider ought to be a fair allowance on the bill ? Mr. Ramsey—l should deduct two-thirds, my Lord. Mr. BUTT—My Lord, doctors differ as well as lawyers. —(Laughter.) Lord LYNDHURST—Then, Sir, off a draught charged sixpence you would take two-thirds ? Mr. Ramsey—My Lord, I would not have given draughts at all. Mr. BUTT—Doctors differ, my Lord.—(Laughter.) Lord LYNDHURST.--Did you never administer draughts, Sir, to your patients? Mr. Ramsey—l make distinctions, my Lord. I give draughts to respectable patients.— (Laughter, in which his Lordship joined.) Lord Lviannuasx—Let me understand you. Do you not give draughts to your poor patients? and are they not as necessary for them as for your rich ones ? Mr. Ramsey —They are, my Lord, but we generally give them to our respectable patients, and powders to the poorer class. Mr. Jvavis—What is that he said, my Lord ? Lord LYNDHURST—He says, Mr. Jervis, that he would give a draught to you, but not toyour client.—(Laughter.) His LORDSHIP then summed up the evidence, and said if the Jury were of opinion that the dog was a savage and ferocious one, and had not been properly secured, and that the child had not provoked the calamity, which she had the misfortune to suffer, they would be bound to find for the pl,intiff, to what amount it was for them to determine. The Jury consulted together for some few minutes, and found a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages, 451. Costs, 40s. - - G. R. Robinson, Esq. M.P. Alexander Gillespie, Esq. P. M. Stewart, Esq. M.P.

No. I. of rilpHE BRITISH MAGAZINE, and 1- MONTHLY REGISTER of RELIGIOUS and ECCLESIASTICAL INFORMATION, Parochial His tory, and Documents respecting the State of the Poor, Progress of Education, &c. The Magazine now presented to the notice of the public, differs, in some important respect., from any at present in existence. While its chief aim will be undoubtedly to diffuse sound religious and moral information, it does not seek to be exclusively theological ; but will embrace other topics connected almost directly with public improvement. The education of the poor, their moral and religious con dition, and their temporal wants, are objects of paramount interest, at present, both to the religious man and the politician. The Magazine will, therefore, embrace ac counts of the plans devised for the improvement of both the spiritual and temporal condition of the poor, whether by societies (with reports of their proceedings) or by in dividuals, and will be open to communication on these im portant points. On all these subjects, as well as on reli gious matters,—on the State of the Church and Clergy, as well as of other religious bodies,—it will seek to pre sent facts and documents. And on this ground it will hope for the patronage of the lovers of truth in all parties, po ideal and religious. For truth, in most of the points here alluded to, is only to be known by the careful collec tion, and careful examination, of documents. All, there fore, who wish to know the truth, must wish for docu ments; and no one, whatever be his party, can wish to shrink from the inferences to which he may be conducted by them, or fear that these faithful guides (if rightly used) will ever mislead him. PRACTICAL ECONOMY, a .NEW SYSTEM, formed from MODERN DISCOVERIES, and the PRIVATE COMMUNICATIONS of PERSONS of EXPERIENCE ; in which scarcely a single subject con nected with housekeeping, from the csre of the library down to the management of the beer cellar, is not treated of, and in a manner which will afford much useful infor mation to all who are desirous of properly regulating their establishments, and of enjoying the greatest possible por tion of the conveniences, comforts, and elegancies of life that their respective incomes will admit of : the Fourth Edition, in one thick volume, price only 6s. bound.

THE IMPETUOSITY of PASSION, and the coincidence of general gaiety must involve a considerable portion of the community in the sufferance of those disorders which are destined to be the punishment of illicit indulgenCe. And since the time of Monkish s uperstition, no blame has been imputed to medical Practi tioners for the exertions of their skill in the removal of these complaints. As medical ability cannot therefore be more usefully or more respectably employed, it is only necessary to inquire Where it can be most decisively depended upon, certainly not among those who rush without education into the practice of Esculapian slaughter ; but among those who, after regular initiation, confine their exertions to one point, and concentrat e their skill in the study and treatment of One Branch. Dr. Courtenay, from the University of Edinburgh, is entitled by his qualification to make this selection, and after unprecedented success for upwards ofThirty-five Years, he may now without presumption, offer restoration in cases where the most eminent Practitioners have failed. An Insidious Disorder may be contracted in an unguarded moment of intoxication. By this plan of cure, pain is prevented, the possibility of danger precluded, and the constitution is left, not merely unimpaired, but absolutely improved by the process. The sufferings of this complaint are however trifling compared with the consequences of that destructive prac tice for which Onan suffered death. To those whose feelings are susceptible of the misery which this pernicious habit has occasioned, it may be some consolation to know, t hat, by proper perseverance, the most deplorable debility may be removed. When estates are dependant on the progeny of married people, the removal of those impedi ments is to many the restoration of life's best enjoyment, nor is it unreasonable to expect success from the connection of that peculiar state of the constitution, by which con ception is prevented, or the embryotic prisoner constantly t "t°Yeti.

ADVENTURES OF A YOUNGER SON. With respect to the principles adopted in the Magazine, the Proprietors feel that they could not gain credit with reasonable men by professing that the management is en trusted to persons having no fixed opinions on matters so important as those which will be treated of ; they have, therefore, no hesitation in stating, that the Magazine is in the hands of persons belonging to the Church of England, nor in avowing their conviction, that while almost every sect has its journal, great advantage and convenience would arise to the Members of the Church of Eagland, if they, too, had their's ; that is to say, if they had a journal which should not seek for discussions of matters where churchmen differ; but rather give them a point of union on matters where they agree, and a means of promoting their common cause. But having said this, the Proprietors must add, that the Magazine will always he open to those who may wish to explain or defend themselves against any charges or accusations conveyed in its pages. They trust that the Clergy may find this Magazine an useful medium of communication on professional matters, a medium which seems to them at present to be much wanted. They will endeavour, as far as possible, to give full accounts of all Meetings held on Religious Matters, as well as those for Benevolent Purposes, reserving to the Editor the right of making brief comments on any points which he may deem of consequence in the speeches reported. Fur the original matter, they can only say that they are prepared to spare no expense for the purpose of engaging able Contributors, and they take this opportunity of in viting Contributions. In addition to the points already adverted to, they hope very frequently to present their readers with Biographies of Remarkable Religious Cha racters ; and also with Records of the Manners, Feelings, and Habits of Students and Scholars, as well as of Divines and Religious Men of past times. In conclusion, they invite notice to the following list of subjects, which they intend to comprehend in their Mis cellaneous Department. MISCELLANEOUS DEPARTMENT. 1. Notices of the Olden Time, in extracts from Original Letters, or curious and scarce NVorks. 2. Reviews of New Books. 3.

ADVENTURES OF A YOUNGER SON.— The volumes bearing this title will, we understand, shortly be laid before the world. Some particulars respecting the peculiar character of the work transpired, it is believed, without the writer's knowledge, a few months ago in a weekly journal, and the consequence has been, that very general and very marked anxiety has been manifested to see the volumes. It may now be stated, that the narra tive is understood to embrace details of the actual life of a gentleman whose recent career has occupied much of the public attention. He was one of the most intimate of the late Lord BYRON'S friends, and it is said that his work will demonstrate that he is of a kindred genius. The scenes in the novel are, we hear, altogether of an extraor dinary nature. BEASTLY CRAVING FOR ARDENT Sri- RlTs.—On Sunday last a patient was brought to the In firmary here, from Port Glasgow, in the last stage of typhus fever. He was accompanied by his wife, a decent looking woman, who professed to be much afflicted in con sequence of his hopeless state, and was suffered to remain with him during the day. As he was evidently sinking, one of the att en d ants was instructed to serve him occasion ally with some spirits made into toddy, for which purpose the quantity of a b out h alf a tnutchkin was given out, it beingimpossible by any means to do more than for a few hours to protract the life of the patient. The wife re mained at his bedside during the evening, with well-affec tinned sympathy—but alas ! such is the frailty of habitual intemperance, on the hospital attendant leaving the ward for a brief interval, it was seized by the wretched creature, who drank off the spirits which bad been humanely sup plied to moiste n the feverish lips of her dying husband.__ When the nurse returned, the whiskey was gone, and the woman obvi ous l y i ntoxicated. Soon after, she desired to be let out, and was suffered to depart, not long after which the poor man breathed his last. It is difficult to imagine a case in which a beastly craving for ardent spi rits could be indulged under circumstances more disgrace- Greenock .advertiser. COURT OF COMMISSIONERS, BASINGBALL-STREET. MR. MABERLY'S BANKRUPTCY. A meeting of the creditors of Mr. Maberly took place to-day before Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE, for the purpose of proving debts and choosing assignees, The amount of debts proved was about 30,0001. ; hut the amount of the debts due on account of deposits in " The Deposit and Exchange Bank" at Aberdeen and its branches, amount to 109,5401., distributed in the fol lowing proportions : Aberdeen, about £62,000 0 0 Edinburgh Glasgow 17,000 0 0 Montrose 2,000 0 0 Dundee 2,700 0 Q What was the probable amount of the English debts did not transpire. The number of creditors on the books was 784. The gentlemen proposed as assignees were John Banna tyne, of the Old Jewry; and Geo. Gordon, of Mincing-lane. Mr. Walford, who acted on behalf of the estate, begged to ask whether either of those gentlemen were creditors ? Mr. Gordon, who appeared on behalf of the Scotch cre ditors, said that neither of them were. Mr. Walford—l would then submit it to the conside ration of the meeting to say whether one, at least, of the assignees should not be a creditor. Mr. FONBLANQU E—You are aware that their not being so is not a legal objection. Mr. Walford—l am aware of it, nor do I meats to im peach the respectability of these gentlemen ; but as there must be so many London creditors, I suggest it to the meeting as desirable, that one of them should he u r p.,;..e,,t assignee. FoNBLANQUE—The matter rests entirely in the hands of the creditors. No objection being offered to either of the gentlema n put in nomination, they were appointed. The debts proved to-day were principally for deposits in Mr. Maberly's bank at Aberdeen ; but there were a few of a different descaiption. The following are debts the proof of which was objected to. Mr. Walford objected to Mr. Mitchell, cashier of the Aberdeen Town and Country Banking Company, proving a debt of 2,8201. on behalf of his bank. The company had arrested a rum of money belonging to Mr. M a b er ly in the bands of his ' agent at Edinburgh, and till that ar rest was withdrawn they could not prove under the com mission. Mr. Gordon said, that he knew nothing of the fact, but he apprehended that proving under the commission would do away with the arrestment. Mr. FONBLANQUE—Mr. Mitchell has actual possession of the property of the bankrupt. Mr. Gordon—The process by which' he has obtained it is, I believe, something like that of attachment in the city of London. Mr. FONSLAUQUE—And in the case of an attachment, I should say that a debt could not be proved whilst the at tachment lasted, because, as here, there is a specific security for the debt. Mr. Gordon—ln that case I will undertake to bind the creditor to abandon the arrest. I understand that it was never intended to obtain a preference by it, but that it was merely a preliminary proceeding to make Mr. Maberly a bankrupt by the law of Scotland, and I suppose that it will now fall to the ground as a matter of course. Mr. FosnLartQuE—Whatever the intention may have been, I can only look to the effect. But is this Company authorised to claim debts by its cashier? Mr. Gordon—Yes, Sir, it is one of those established under the 7th Geo. IV., c. 67, enabling Joint Stock Banking Companies in Scotland to sue and be used by their cashiers. Mr. Walford—l hardly think it can be Mr. Mitchell's intention to abandon his rights under the arrestment, for, in another deposition, he claims 130/. more, as due from Mr. Maberly to the bank. Mr. Gordon—But I am authorised to withdraw the attachment. Mr. Forzacmiqutt, having referred to the 7th Gee, IV., c. 67, said that it was provided in the Act that suds Joint Stock Companies as intended to take advantage of its provisions must comply with the regulations it con tained. The party attempting to prove as cashier must, therefore, swear that the Company has complied with the regulations of the Act. Mr. Gordon —Upon that being added to his affidavit, then, he may prove ? Mr. FONBLANqUE—Yee ; and on your undertaking to withdraw the attachment being accepted. There were several cases of deposits made by individuals, A soot-begrimed professor of the art and mystery of ' chimney-sweeping, who gave his name Horatio Bur goyne, was charged by a woman named Hanson with having assaulted her, first with his fist, and then finishing ' the matter more leisurely with his foot. In corrobora tion of her statement she called Mr.. Hanson, her husband, I : who declared—" First and foremost, he blowed the candle out of my band, and then cotch'd toy rife a precious vhack on von side of her head vich knocked her backerds, and arterwards he kicked her legs most mercifully." Mr. Hanson further declared that the defendant was an astonish ing genius at his profession, and he would back him at crooked chimney work against the world. He had lately lost some soot and other valuable articles out of his cellar•, but he declined saying any thing on that point. " Please yer Vership," said Burgoyne, " this here's all along o' my missus, who obleeges me to call her missus, though she ar'nt no missus of mine. List night, at half arter nine, jest ven ve'd made ourselves up a comfutahle bed vith the sut sacks and sitch like, I goes up to missus, though she ar'nt no missus, and sis,—Don't you think to go fer to do us out of our suppers as you did last night. Yell, she makes arneer and You be blowed, you sha'n't ha' none.' I then got vex'd and served hur out. Here Fre been 18 years in the trade and have alvays yarn'd a respectable livelywood till missus came, who ar'nt no missus. She starves us to give the wades to her Hirieb pals, and ven I axes her at dinner for a bit more, she gives me von tater and a bit of meat as is of no use, while master alvays used to cut me off a bellyful; but its all along because I v'ont call her missus." Mr. Alderman Wasow—Well, why don't you call her missus? Burgoyne—She arn't no missus. She is only master's booman, and it goes agin my conscience to call her missus van she's a conkerbine.—(Laughter.) The beadle came forward, and said that the house used to be once well conducted, but of late there had been such repeated disturbances that the parish had resolved to get rid of the whole of them. It was in vain for him to go into the house, when a riot occurred, to take them into custody, for they all escaped up the chimney. Upon the promise of the defendant to seek another situation, the Ma gistrate consented to dismiss the ease. A weather-beaten old waterman, named Bates, was placed at the bar on a violent suspicion of having stolen a quantity of fish, which had been found in his boat. Mr. S. Goldham, the Inspector, said he had been night and day, for the last month, endeavouring to capture the pri soner, who was a sort of " cad" to the " mud-larks." It was his custom to bring his boat outside of the fish-boat s when they came in, and was thus always ready to receive any little lots of fish which he or his friends contrived to. prig. He had always eluded attempts to lay hold of hi m , for when he found he was pursued he would jump into his boat and row off. Such was his success in this " line," that he had nearly broken the hearts of the peripatetic fishmongers of Deptford and its neighbourhood ; fur, hav ing got his goods cheap, he was enabled to let his cos tumers have them much under the price which the regular traders, who paid for their'a, could possibly afford. The fact of his having received a quantity of stolen soles was proved, by a witness who more he " seed one of the same consarn chuck 'em into the boat." " There arn't a wont of truth, please your Lordship," said Bates, in defence, " in vat that covey states. I've been forty years attending in Billingsgate market, am! never had no misdemeanour laid against me—and there's no call fur none now. No body can't say as I've ever prigged fish out of a weasel or a boat, or any boat near a wessel and -- ash, ..1 9 , a uouens - Dm honourable, and I paid for 'cm honourable, and what's more, I've got a hundred more witnesses as will come forward and tell your Lordship the same fact if 1 know'd where to find 'em." The sitting Magistrate, Mr. Alderman WILSON, re mained unconvinced by the defendant's rhetoric, and sen tenced him to two months in Bridewell. It not unfrequently happens that more is meant than meets the ear, which may perhaps be the cise when a great legal ainecurist evinces such a warm a nxiety fur compensation to the Loan CITANCELLOA for his losses in bankruptcy. —Morning Herald. The admirers of " Praise-God-bare-bones," and the Cantwell.% and Mawworms, are increasing daily, and, judging from the rhapsodies of several of their asso_ eiates, there is likely to he upon a great demand for strait waistcoats.—Morni24 9 Advertiser. The restoration of the Lady Chapel will not be the only good resulting from the contest which is now terminated, as it has called the attention of the public to the condition of St. Saviour's Church generally. A dis tinguished member of his Majesty's Goverment, who visited the church and chapel on Wednesday last, is said to have ex pressed his regret that, whilst so much money bad been ex pended on gingerbread modern buildings, this ancient structure should be left to crumble into ruins. Vahould be remembered that the whole of the nave of the church has been unroofed, and, from its exposure to the weather, must soon cease to exist. That generous public, as well as the enlightened inhabitants of the parish, who have been so ardently engaged in this contest, have every reason to con gratulate themselves on the successful termination of the contest; and we have no doubt that even those who were defeated will find, when the excitement has passed away, that those who advocated the re-toration of this fine relic of the architectural skill and fine taste of our ancestors, did that which was consistent with the character, and conducive to the advancement, of good taste in this country.—At the close of the poll there were for the pre servation of the chapel, 380 ; for its abatement, 140 ; majority, 240. DANGEROUS TRADE.—Last week two re• surrectionists went to a church-yard in Preston-pansy for the purpose of procuring " something."
