UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, No. 8, WATERLOO-PLACE, PALL-MALL, LONDON. The attention of Holders of Policies in the Equitable Assurance Company of London, is particularly called to the Half-Credit Scales of Premium of this Company, by which table the bonus to be de clared at the next investigation of the Equitable Assurance Company's affairs, in January, 1850, may be secured at a present annual payment of one half the rates generally charged by other companies. In the event of death the sum insured will he paid, after deduction of the other half of the rates. Should the life insured survive the decla ration of the bonus, the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the Company will renounce all claim for the half premiums which may be due thereon ; or, in the event of the party being at that time 111 bad health, the policy can be kept up at the full premium of the age as when first accepted. The above plan, originating with this Company, was found peculiarly advantageous at the last division of profits in the Equitable Assurance Company in 1840, when it seas largely adopted, and many of the policies then effected are still in force, and large bonuses have been added to them on the Beale of the following table : Sum Assured.

Ma. BUCKINGHAM'S LECTURES AT DALKEITH.— On Monday evening last, Mr. Buckingham delivered, in connexion with the Dalkeith Scientific Association, the first of a course of six lectures on Palestine, in the As sembly-room, White Hart street. The lecture, which occupied nearly two hours, was listened to with deep interest, and afforded very high gratification to one of the largest audiences ever assembled in connexion with the Scientific Association. Nothing could exceed the chasteness, felicity, and'appropriateness of the language employed by Mr. Buckingham, the discriminating beauty of his pictures of scenery and manners, or the mellow, yet congenial and fervid spirit of his allusions to the history of ancient Israel. Such is the interest excited by these lectures on Palestine, that it has been found necessary to look out for a larger room ; and the tio r na e nil m epno i ai oonfot: n rlt d ech e 7eoE r of the,9ccchaplaLrlpoeAdevuli chapels iE o n u rs Dalkeith.he refore, to be deli vere d i n ACT.—ln oT s nh .e TTohwe ApcotliciJulysectlolaasuetxsaetnse extend c ct :o! , c sc a uo m enh e . towns or districts in England and Ireland as shall be comprised in any Act of Parliament hereaft er to b e passed, whi c h s h a ll declare that this Act shall be incor porated therewith, and all p t re he ss e l lau v a a e r s ie ( d )f this Act, save r theegYuat regulating n anyso far such u as s h they ,tct sshhaal applybc: ex to ntghoetrhoerexcepted by Commissionerss district w o h which shall Act, as such clauses shall be applicable thereto respectively, and and shall with the clauses of every other shall bo incorporated therewith form part of such whicht and be construed therewith as forming one Act.

CHARING-CROSS HoserraL.---Yesterday afternoon a meeting of the governors and committee of the abovc hospital was held in the board-room of the institution, in Agar-street, West Strand, for the transaction of general business. The report stated that there were 101 in-patients at present in the establishment. During the past quarter the number of in-patients had been 302; out-patients, 3,564; in addition to which 371 cases of accidents and cases of emergency had been received. During the pat year there had been an accession of nearly 2,000 out-patients. Notwithstanding the utmost care in the expenditure, the resources are too limited for the full exercise of its useful operations, four wards being at present unoccupied. Last year 1,052 in patients were admitted, and 8,709 out-patients relieved—making a total, since the foundation in 1818, of upwards of 131,000 persons who had participated in its benefits. The funds are at present in a very low slate, 'and in adequate to the clematis of the charity. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. SIR CHARLES NAPIER'S SQUADRON. PORTSMOUTH', TUESDAY.—Our last advices were to the 28th of Oct., per the Terrible; we now continue our details of the movements from that date to the 9th instant inclusive : " The few cases of typhus which manifested them selves on board the St. Vincent, Avenger, and Cano pus, the Admiral had sent to the Portuguese Naval Hospital, a step which has caused much dissatisfaction throughout the squadron among the officers as well as men, for, although the hospital is not very dirty, yet the attendance is bad, the method of treatment worse, and the very idea of the surgeons of the fleet not being allowed to attend their own men has caused a general feeling of annoyance. It is hoped the representation of this fact in the proper quarter will cause a better state of things. Made all sail this day (28th of Oc tober), per signal, and exercised reefing and furling. The Caledonia and Queen were the smartest handled. " Nov. I.—At 9.30 A.M. a signal made to shift all topsails,' the work only of a few minutes with the Caledonia and Queen ; the latter shifted and hoisted mizentopsail in 8 minutes, fore and main in 12 mi nutes ; Caledonia, fore and main in 12 minutes, mizen in 14 minutes; St. Vincent, 28 minutes; Vengeance, 30 minutes. In this exercise the Caledonia unfortu nately lost a man overboard. " Nov. 3.—The squadron, hitherto anchored off Belem, all unmoored, and proceeded up to Lisbon, it is reported, in consequence of a change of Ministry and the chance of an cmeute. The Odin steam fri gate, Cytain the Hon. F. T. Pelham, was supposed to be ashore near the packet stairs, having made the signal in want of immediate assistance.' The Admi ral accordingly dispatched Sir Henry Leeke to ren der assistance ; the Queen was immediately under all sail standing towards the steamer, and ultitua.tely anchored so clo se t o h er as to hay...Leen enbbleo3(l she required it, to heave her off with the stream cable ; but it was found she had not struck, and a French steamer towed her to the north side of the river, for which courtesy and prompt assistance the Admiral thanked the French captain. Nov. 4.—At daylight the signal was made to the Caledonia, Queen, and Canopus, to weigh as conve nient, these ships having been prevented from work ing up yesterday by the tide. They made sail imme diately, and took up their respective berths in remark ably smart style. In former days it would have been thought impossible for five sail of the line and five large steam frigates to be under weigh and per forming such evolutions in such a river as the Tagus, with a tide running at least 3 knots an hour; but now it is thought nothing of; and the weighing anchor, mak ing and shortening sail, forming line of battle, bearing up and running below Belem Castle, hauling to the wind, passing each other within 50 yards, backing, and filling, are done as every-day exercise with the greatest facility and skill on the part of the respec tive commanding and other officers and men. communicated Majesty the Queen of Portugal gave birth t o -d ay to all Prince,lthe ships on n in whichth e T fact being fi r fired officially royalsalutea. " Nov. s.—Another general royal salute was Bred again to-day, in further honour of the birth of the Prince, and in the evening all the ships illuminated with blue lights at each yardarm, jib, and spanker boom ends, and ten rockets were thrown up from each ship and steamer, the effect of which was beau tiful in the extreme. The Hecate steam-sloop, Com mander Moorman, arrived this day from England. Her rudder-head is defective ; it is to be repaired, and she will sail to-day (the 9th) for the Mediter ranean. " Nov. 6.—The Scourge steam bomb-vessel, Cap tain Caffin, arrived this day from Madeira, where she had been to announce the approach of the Queen Dowager. She reports the llowe having landed her Majesty and left Madeira on the 2d, to rejoin Sir C. Napier. The Jackal iron steamer, Lieutenant-Com mander Western, proceed to Oporto to- day to relieve the Polyphemus, which is ordered to reinforce the steam squadron at Malta, but to be ultimately on the Gibraltar station, in the place of the Virago, sent home. " MONDAY, Nov. B.—Heavy rains and foggy weather. The Vengeance is under orders for the Mediterranean, and will sail as soon as it moderates and is clear enough for her to pass the bar of the river. The 0 lin steam-frigate VI ill follow her in a few :days. The Amphion, 36, Captain Williams, arrived this evening from England. "Nov. 9.—The Vengeance, 84, Captain Lush ington, sailed to-day for Malta. The Duke of Saxe Weimar arrived here in the English packet from Cadiz. His Highness is to go to Madeira in one of the steam-vessels. The Howe, 120, is in sight, from Madeira. The Hecate left to-day for Gibraltar. The cases of fever on board the ships beforementioned are reported better to-day. " Coimmander Wingroie has superseded Catagiii Cam in the command of the Scourge. Captain Dixon, of the Caledonia, is unwell; it is supposed he will go home in the packet. The Canopus, 84, is to remain with Sir Charles Napier, and the Albion is daily expected. " Squadron in the Tagus :—British—The St. Vin cent, 120, flag; the Caledonia, 120; the Queen, 110; the Canopus, 84; the Dragon steam-frigate; the Avenger and Odin steam-frigates ; the Hecate and Scourge steam-sloops, and the Jackal iron-steamer. French—The Psyche frigate, and a small steamer. Spanish—One corvette." The Oberon iron steam-vessel, of three guns, and 260-horse power, Lieutenant-Commander Gardner, arrived yesterday from Chatham, and came into the harbour to coal, and, as usual, to make good defects. She is to embark, it is reported, the Right Hon. Richard More O'Ferrall, the newly-appointed Go vernor of Malta, for that island, with his family and suite. Orders were, however, received at this port yesterday to suspend the payment of advance wages to her crew for the present. The Rochester, navy lighter, arrived yesterday with a cargo of stores from Chatham for this dock yard. The Netley, tender, arrived this morning from Plymouth, with newly entered men for the Asia, 84, Captain Stopford, flag of Rear-Admiral Phipps i Hornby, C.B. Wind N., moderate breezes. Weather dark, hazy, and squally, with rain—five o'clock F.M. His Highness Prince Callimaki, accompanied by Soliman Pacha, Ottoman Ambassador at the Court of France, and M. Zohrab, Ottoman Consul-General, srrived at this port, attended by their respective suites, this afternoon, by the South-Western Railway, on a visit of inspectio n t o t hi s port. Th e distinguished visitors were received at the Gosport station by Mr. R. W. Stevens, superintendent., and met by Mr. Alexander Beattie, Ottoman Vice-Consul, who con ducted the party to the George Hotel. The bad state of the weather confined the illustrious visitors to their hotel. PLYMOUTH, Nov. 15.—Her Majesty's steam-frigate Birkenhead, Commander Augustus H. Ingram, ar rived this morning, also from Portsmouth. _ _ . Her Majesty's steam-sloop Racer, 16, Commander Archibald Reed, last from Portsmouth, carne in yes terday afternoon, and after anchoring in the Sound, saluted the flag of Port Admiral Sir John West, the honour being duly acknowledged by the batteries at Mount Wise. THE GREAT TUNNEL AT LIVERPOOL.—This gigantic effort of skill and labour, which i s to run fr o m Edge-hill to the new north docks is likely to prove more expensive than was at first contemplated, and at the same time to be a great promoter of the sanitary condi tion of the town. From Byrom-stre:4 to Crompton street (a distance of about a mile), the cuttings have been difficult and dangerous, the workmen having to cut through clay the whole distance they have yet proceeded, and to support the sides with the utmost care and skill, as required by the treacherous state of the earth. In some portions of this distance it has been found neces sary to raise buildings and open the eat th to the level of the intended tramroad. This has been done from Byrom street, otnor4Gne under ;round inar o oto3 u u. c i : e l itoir t w h e. elle buttr. head d sTst such ehe o t of hasehtmah sae been neb p eic o nne o gn i t from pialoet rtetilimol portion It h ioet: e dfc et htsi Mersey stb ouenfena u t er o ,l have ihanavactss,ob buteo i e e n r a)cftottst:iteipinehleol compelled houses, distancenci outi quit r i n i o. l i y int i i i tn tsbh m eor e ur di anitoi(a,tlvii,c,eog.v ievrttnh Seinee cautf tt andthey e : ) ,d h nw a oe v w e l l i h na e gr e se n ,h avhave rende redwouldb ee n b sesoo extremely x t relit, r e int he dangerou s al3t, t do at livenh dangerous , e t r t i o h nu e st h e[ln, inma t es ia - s s:RteuirtsEe:essat._,rinditl:ll,aeratevoweyntah:sfialtssehod::::raon w illce therefore, believed that the h from Fontenoy-street to Crompton street Bispham-strect, Henry Edward-street,' e Nr a P y rising station of the South- Eastern Arms e it rEr - m s V M a l' u lg x i lra l l i l -s r t o r a e d e , t, Gas ß co 3 ) n •n a have to be pulled down.—Liverpool Mercury.

TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is 13 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31.175. 101 d. per ounce forstandard gold, gives an exchange of 25.47 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 70, it follows that gold is 0.90 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4341 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.91; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 11i, it follows that gold is 0.80 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 1091 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.08 per cent. against England ; but, the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. In consequence of the disproval of the unfavourable rumours from France which were yesterday after noon brought to the Stock Exchange by electric telegraph, the English funds have to-day again resumed an upward movement. The first quota tion of Consols for money and account was 83i to -I, and they subsequently advanced to 84f ; this, how ever, was not fully maintained, and they left off 841 to 1. For the opening, 18th of January, they begau at 841, rose to 851, and left off 84i to 85. During the morning the failure of a broker was announced, the party being Mr. Arthur Arlen. He had become a member of the hnuse only during the present year, and his differences amount to 10,0001. It is understood that shipments of gold are now taking place from this side to llamburgh, and it is stated that the Wilberforce and John Bull steamers have each conveyed out some amount. The suspension of Mr. Robert Farrand, a corn factor, was announced this morning, and caused considerable surprise, his credit in the market, on account of the supposed safe character of his business, being extremely good. The amount of his liabilities did not transpire, but they are understood to be small. Mr. Farrand is a director of the London Joint-Stock Bank, and was at one time Member for Ileddon, and subsequently for Stafford. It was agreed to-day, at the adjourned meeting of creditors of Thomas, Son, and Lefevre, that it would be desirable, in order to relieve the anxieties of bill holders in the Lancashire district, to declare a divi dend as early as possible, and hence a resolution was passed authorising the payment of 2s. 6d. in the pound, should Mr. D. Dobree, the chairman, after consultation with the professional adviser of the house and Mr. Lefevre, consider such payment ad visable. It appeared, from what transpired, that sufficient assets already exist, when rendered avail able by the friendly interposition of Mr. Jones Loyd, to distribute this sum, but it was nevertheless sug gested whether it would not he better to wait the collection of further assets, so that the first dividend declared might be at least ss. in the pound. The necessity of an immediate distribution to satisfy the anticipations of the Manchester creditors, who were represented as consisting of a class of individuals to whom a dividend, though small in amount, would be exceedingly welcome, was, however, strongly advo cated, and under these circumstances the resolution mentioned was carried. It may be added that the explanations furnished on the subject of the accounts of the firm were regarded as perfectly satisfactory. The creditors of Messrs. Abbott, Nottingham, and Co., of Aldermanbury, determined at the meeting held this afternoon to administer the estate under bankruptcy. The statement of account presented showed debts and liabilities to the extent of 24,2341. 35., and assets to the extent of 13,2051. 9s. sd. A dividend of 6s. Bd. in the pound, payable on the 29th inst., was declared to-day under the estate of W. and J. Woodley, of the Corn Exchange, whose failure took place on the 27th of August. By advices from Hamburgh of the 12th inst. money appears to be in less demand, the rate of discount being 41 to 5 per cent. At Amsterdam also the rate was . 5 per cent. The advices by the Boston steamer mention, that notwithstanding the unfavourable news received from this side, no failures had occurred in the United States, and that none are expected. The liquidation of the affairs of Prime, Ward, and Co., however, appears to have assumed a very unfavourable character, and it is now believed that their estate will not yield a total dividend of more than 10 per cent. The losses of the firm in the eight months preceding their stoppage are stated at 800,000 dolls. The market for breadstuffs shows no great alteration, and the farmers have held back their wheat so generally that there will in no cheap flour before the spring. As regards Indian corn, prices, on the contrary, are expected to go very low. TIIE CURRENCY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—That Sir Robert Peel's currency laws cause a monopoly in favour of the moneyed interests of this country is an obvious fact. That the welfare of the great body of the people of these kingdoms is sacri ficed for the benefit and aggrandisement of that limited, but more fortunate, portion of our fellow subjects, through the working of these laws, is also evident. No man, it seems, must now promise to pay the representative of goods in his warehouse, or lands and houses in his possession, unless he have that representative in present and immediate possession. If he make such promise, he must do so in a fixed quantity of this representative of property ; he must promise a certain weight of gold, whose only value lies in its representing goods, merchandise, and pro- perty of every description. This certain weight, when he is called upon to pay, may represent twice as much goods as when he contracted such debt, con• sequently he loses in discharging his debt, according to present laws, an amount equal to the original debt. lie pays twice as much as he borrowed in paying the representative of twice as much. And wherein lies the value of gold but as an article of representa tion of all the necessaries of life, and which any other article could be made to do, such as counters or State inconvertible notes, based on the security of the whole fixed capital of the kingdom, and which would prove a saving to the kingdom of the interest of all the floating gold, besides the loss by wear. England must allow some of her gold to go abroad, and use a sub stitute till the demand for. her manufactures returns that gold, otherwise the, _value of all fixed capital in this country must suffer an immense depreciation ; but a currency founded on this fixed capital will support its own and that capi tal's value; for who can doubt the goodness of the security without the gold being immediately in band? The Government securities already existing —the whole national debt—are based on:this security ; they are not supported by a sovereign for every pro mise to pay a pound. That gold and silver are likely to become more valuable as articles of exchange, or ornament, in pro portion as the population of the world increases, and as civilization extends, there is no doubt, unless pro portionate increase of those metals can be called into existence. In such case a smaller quantity must re present the same amount of goods as a larger quantity at present. Will it be just, then, that debts contracted when this article was cheap and plenty, must be paid in the same quantity of this article when it is dear and scarce, and, being so, may represent twice the quantity ("clothing, provisions, houses, or lands, than it did when such debts were contracted ? Such would be not only unjust but impossible. Should you deem the insertion of these lines in your columns not out of place, I shall be obliged. Nov. 10, 1847. J. G. Itamburgh witnessed a curious proceeding on the Bth. The scaffold was erected as for an execution be fore the principal front of the Exchange, and at twelve o'clock a large • furnace filled with resinous wood was placed on it. The wood having been set on fire, the bell of the Town hall was rung violently, as is usual during the execution of decrees inflicting infamous penalties. At one o'clock, the hour at which merchants are assem bled on the Exchange, the public executioner ascended the scaffold, followed by two of his assktrants, and after having caused a drum to be beat, proclaimed in a loud voice the name of a merchant who had been declared guilty of a fraudulent bankruptcy, and who had taken to flight. He then displayed to the spectators an enor mous placard, bearing the name of the culprit in gigantic letters. He next caused the drum to be beat a second time, after which he tossed the placard in the flames. Fur twenty-three years no similar execution had taken place at Hamburgh. By the laws of that city, when a tradesman fails the state of his affairs is immediately examined into by a jury nominated by the Tribunal of Commerce, and the jury has to declare on oath if the bankrupt be irreproachable, if he be guilty of negli gence, or if ho has committed fraud. In the first c,“e, the Tribunal of Commerce declares him innocent ; in the second, he is subject to imprisonment for a period more or less long; in the third, he is liable to be confined in a House of Correction for from ten to twenty years, and to be expos( d on the pillory; but if he takes to flight, his name is publicly burned by the hangman, in the manner we have described.

Taylor in the chair. Mr. Cox, the secretary, read the report of the committee, which stated that the recommendations contained in it gave great satisfaction to the compositors. A declara tion was also read from the compositors, in which they expressed their full conviction in the desire of the masters to do them justice, and that "strikes" amongst the compositors had received their death-blow. The London scale of prices, as agreed to in 1810, and which were embodied in a pamphlet, was handed about; and a resolution was agreed to, confirming those prices as those which should still exist. It was also resolved to appoint a committee of reference, to consist of twelve master printers, t six_ of t whose decision members all c:atte of s of itto dispute should be submitted, be chosen by the compositors.

S wainson and Birchwood's bankrup tcy was supe rse d e d a t th e fi rs t meeting of credito rs, Friday last. Their estate showed nearly one hun dred shillings for every pound of their - deb:4, and it was understood that the leg al pr o . ceedings had b een a ll owed to arr i ve at a fia t purely 1 through neglect.—Liverpool Times. ine p _ _ gee 1 • roceeding-3 were new in course of legs investigation, and it was -not their intention to Procee further with the meetings. So far as the object of the by which that meeting was originally con requisition, vened went, it was expired, and they would proceed no further. The CHAIRMAN said then they were to consider that meetin g as finally adj ourned. Mr. MozLer replied, yes. At four o'clock the general meeting was hold at the same room. After the chair had been taken Mr. MOZLEY said that meeting wore in some de gree a different character from the special meeting. They were entitled at the present meeting to ask for information respecting the affairs of the company since the last meeting, and he now rose for the purpose of requesting information which would be in teresting to a large body of the shareholders. Since the last meeting proceedings had been taken by the directors to enforce a call, and certain proceedings had taken place by contractors against the directors, and it was now very desirable that they should know what course the directors were going to take with respect to these actions. He should, therefor, at once ask the chairman, whether it was intended by the directors to call a general meeting of the share holder* in compliance with the requisition which had lately been presented to them. The CHAIRMAN said, the requisition to which Mr. Mozley alluded, was one applying. to the directors to call a general meeting of the shareholders, in ,con sequence of certain actions which had been brought by the contractors for the alleged non-performance of their contracts. " New it was impossible for him, the chairman, to say what the directors would do in that case. 'When the proceedings were commenced against them, the case was submitted to counsel, with a view of ascertaining how far the directors had a good bona fide case, and the answer bid not yet been obtained, and so far as the directors were concerned, he was not prepared to say how they would act. He had, however, no objection to state his individual opi nion. Ifcounsel should offer a sug;est ion that an honest bone fide opposition could be made by the directors, then t,e should say, they ought to oppose the con tractors ; but if, on the contrary, such an opposition could not be made, then he should advise that no op position should be made at all. Mr. MOZLEY said his question had not been an swered. His question was not what the directors would or would not do; but his question was, whether the director 3 would call a meeting in com pliance with the requisition which had been presented to them ? 'Whether there was or was not an honest defence against the contractors was not then the question, because he denied that the directors had the power to deteriaine the question. The shareholders were the parties who ought to decide upon the course to be pursued; nor did he think it proper for any per son to undertake to say how far there was an honest defence, for what one person might consider an honest defence might, in law, turn out a different thing. The CHAIRMAN said h e cou ld no t answer them in any other form. Mr. SPOONER, M.P., rose and said the Act of Par liament allowed the directors twenty-one days to consult as to what they would do in such cases, and the directors in . the present instance would take that time to consider. Mr. Mozley knew that they had that time allowed, and he (Mr. SpoOner) had no hesi tation in telling them that they would take full time before they would tell any . one .the line of conduct they intended to pursue. A SHAAEHOLDER wished to know whether, in case counsel should decide against the 'directors, they would pay the money without calling the sharehol ders together The CHAIRMAN was understood to say that he was not then prepared to answer the question. Mr. Mort.wr said it was his intention to move that it was the duty of the directors to call a meeting,for the purpose of the requisition presented to them, and the directors were requested to.call a meeting on an early day. Ile should, as on former occasions, put the resolution to the meeting. The CHAIRMAN protested against its being put. Mr. MOZLRY then put the resolution, which he de clared carried. After which he proposed the follow ing resolution - :—" It appearing that an action has been commenced against the company by Messrs. Peto and Eastled, resolved that such action be de fended, and that the directors be, and they are hereby required to defend the same." The resolutio 1 was seconded and carried. IMPERIAL BRAZILIAN MINING ASSOCIATION. _ Yesterday the half-yearly meeting of this associ ation Ni as held at the London Tavern, at which Thomas Gibson, Esq., presided. The report was of very considerable length from going into u detail of the new property at Bananal. lt appeared that dur ing the five months that they had taken posses ion of these new e s tates, .501 h. 10oz. lOdwts. of gold had been raised, in value 2,2001., and the vein was still encouraging. The necessities had been materially supplied by the Gongo Soco and Coto Preto mines, so that the expenditure of the new mine had been but trifling. The works at Gongo Soco had been only partially successful, so that it was recommended to convert the whole of the mine into open workings, washing away the jacotinga, and passing the water over skins or coarse cloths, so as to obtain the fine portions of gold. For this they would require some few Englishmen and thirty or forty labourers. The call of 2/. per share, which came due in July last, had been paid on 9,766 shares, leaving only 234 shares in default. The time required, after talc. ing posset-sion of the new mine at Banana! to put it into an efficient course of working, was stated at about twelve months, and the probable cost of doing so was fixed at 5,0001. or 7,0001., during which period from 4,0001. to 5,0001. of gold might be extracted,Ewhich had now partly been realised. The directors had made a further call of 11. per share, which they thought would not only cover all neces sary expenses attending the new mine, but leave a profit to be divided amongst the shareholders. The gold obtained from Gongo Soco in the last six months had been only 681bs. 17dwts., realising 2,5781. 10s. sd. The expenditure at all the mines amounted to 10,6271. 3s. 2d., leaving a deficit of 7,971/. 19s. 3d., against which the association had 32,238/. reserved fund in England, and 5,966/. 13s. 4d. in the Brazils. There were 600 persons in the employ of the associa tion, the black portion of whom had well conducted itself, and one of them had been recommended for the grant of his freedom. The Chairman, in answer to a proprietor, said that the directors would take time to consider v. hat they would do with the forfeited shares ; that the native copper ore had not been worked ; and that all the transports of gold were strongly escorted. The report was adopted, and n vote of thank , was passed to the directors, when the meeting adjourned. SCIIOOL TOR THE INDIGENT 11 LIND.--Yesterday a g‘meral meeting of the governors and subscrib. , rs to this institution was he'd at the London Tavern, Bishop ate street, for the purpose of electing thirteen pupils—five males and eight females—on the foundation of the insti tution; Henry Warner, Esq , in the chair.

This breach of the law is acquiesced in by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im possibility in innumerable cases of cleansing a chimney or flue 7101 the old machine. For the laudable purpose of furthering the objects of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the Inge !dons and effective Itamoueur machine has been invented. This invention consists of four brushes forming a square head, which by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, according to the small or extended space in which the machine moves, thereby creating an even pressure on all four sides of a chimney. The rods attached to this head or brush are supplied at intervals with universal spring joints, capable of taming even a right angle and the whole is surmounted with a double revolving ball, having also a universal spring joint, which leads the brush with certainty past every angle, and into every corner, cleansing its route most perfectly. The capabilities of this machine are best demonstrated by the fact, that it is exclusively used in the Government and numerous public offices, while the patronage bestowed by a large number of the nobility and gentry in continuing their annual con tracts to the patentees evidences their souse of its superiority, as well as of the philanthropic views of the projectors. Detailed prospectuses may be obtained, and a working model of the machine seen, at the offices of the solicitor, F. Dolman, Esq., 38, Jermyn-street, at. James's ; at Messrs. Barry and Co.'s. brokers, 7, lairchin-lane ; at W.

ALBERT, M.D., a Member of the Univer city of Paris, Professor of Pharmacy, Apothecary - to the Hospitals of Paris, Professor of Medicine, and honoured with several Medals and national rewards. No. 21, Rue Montorgeuil, Paris. Numberless and well-authenicated cases which hitherto had been considered as incurable by the Faculty, and which in a short time . hive given way under this treatment, are most unequivocal proofs of its superiority over every other means as yet employed. It was for a long period 01 time a desideratum to discover a mode of cure adopted to all constitutions, and which should be free from the bane ful effects of mercury. We are now arrived at the solution of this problem by the discovery of a mode of treatment at once simple and easy, and which, without any degree of exaggeration, we can affirm to he infallible in the cure of all secret maladies, however inveterate or of long standing. The method of cure, according to Dr. Albert, is economical and easy, either at home or on a journey, causing not the slightest derangement to the general health, and safe in all seasons and in all climates.
