CAUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS. 41141 stACT TRAM AIONS. LE DRAY'S " TREATISR ON LOSS OF TEETH. " Among the various disorders of the Mouth, there is none mote destructive than Scurvy, which on first entering the Gums senses them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro 'Nees the most offensive and frequently putrid breath. A loft substance invariably accumulates around the necks of the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which gradually waste away, and the Teeth then become loose, and drop out whole from their sockets, and it is well known thsi the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. On this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the following i eleervations :—" When the disgusting effects of this accumu r: . are considered, it would appear impossible that any per ,:wa..t o,n could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great hclsance , " en on their ewn account : or if they are too de . to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by emplov e skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the f ee of ethers, who possess mot ,delicacy and propriety of on ' s ,', l . l g than themselves.

When the Teeth are I g" it is i m possible to make use of sol id food ; and if the ti t ' teach is then loaded with p i ece s without being m asticated, • at:patient i s ex posed to the most distressing insligestions, the mach loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in P:Portion as it no longer digests ; besides, when the Teeth tb e gone, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which occasions : 1 1 muscle in the face to be disto rted, and the whole features %completely drawn from their or i g inal p osition. t 4 10 insi s t on th e importance of the teeth , wh ether in regard ` llO functions of digestion and articul ation, to which they asre I so essential, or to personal appearance, in which they are n il ia , z ° ll eh concerned, must appear a waste of words, were it not the that there are many persons who never give themselves iv ! trouble to think upon the subject ; who seem scarcely „,",'lre that they possess teeth at all, while their gross and cul pable negligence renders tha fact too apparent to their friends ntl associates. A lastification is the first process of di g estion, and unless it pC` 4 °IY performed, the subsequent pr ocesses can never go on oix•rl .essential is this preparatory process, that the neglect of it Is soffici,'!rit to occasion indigestion, a disordered stomach, ner ,Oos debiuty, depression of spirits , the skin becomes row,th and tinged of a lead colour, the eyes lose their brilliancy, the lips l o neir Tern:Olio:1 hue, and, in a word, it is no uncom mon thin g for the whole body to receive such a shock as t o c ause re ,a a tion of th e whole system, which produces an irritable L e mper, quite foreign to the natural disposition, whereby : 0 become an annoyance to our friends, and a burthen r e ourselves. But I need not dwell upon the num :s7, Iris concomitant evils which may thus owe their L. 51 1% to imperfect mastication.

Nothing so vouch improves the external appearance of dwel ling-houses and public buildings, and at the same time contri butes in no small degree to the enjoyment of the inmates, as i windows glazed with Plate-glass ; and it s only owing to the high price that the use of it has been so limited until now. The British Public will therefore hear with satisfaction that the same enterprising manufacturers who lately introduced the manufacture of Sheet-glass in this country, have improved this article so much as to be enabled to work it into Plate-glass by a new process, secured by Royal Letters Patent, and by which they produce an article quite as good as the British Plate-glass, with the important advantage of being considerably cheaper, thereby affording the facility of glazing dwelling-houses and public buildings with Plate-glass at moderate prices. This new Plate-glass is also particularly well-suited to Drawings, Engravings, &c.

A single tooth, one guinea ; three ditto, two guineas and a half. Natural teeth supplied from Si. per set, or 10s. per tooth. Messrs. Browns and Cartwright's method of fitting neither requires the extraction of stumps nor gives the slightest pain ; and having had upwards of 20 years' experience in the profession, can guarantee to restore perfect mastication and articulation, having succeeded in thousands of cases, in hundreds of which other dentists had entirely failed. The above are totally different from the brittle glossy French teeth, usually supplied by dentists as newly-discovered mineral, &c. A visit will convince the most seer ical of the fact.

MOST IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN MEDICAL SCIENCE " Vincet veritas et prevalebit." FEAVER'S INFALLIBLE EMBROCA TION for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, RHEUMA TIC GOUT, TIC DOULEROUX, LUMBAGO, SCIA TICA, RHEUMATIC FEVER, QUINSEY, &c., is now for the first time introduced to the notice of the public ; al though in the present age of imposture it is difficult to put for ward R truth, however important, that shall not be liable to be confounded with the daily empirical puffs that are obtruded on the public eye. This consideration has for a long time deterred the proprietor of Feaver's flahrocation from advertising it. Feeling, however, a thorough conviction of the incalculable be nefits it will confer on mankind, he conscientiously believes that, by withholding it longer, he would be wanting in the Lim mon feelings of humanity towards his fellow-creatures, and of duty towards himself. He, therefore, no longer hesitates to adopt this m ode of making this wonderful remedy generally known, that the afflicted may have an opportunity of enjoying the blessings it offers them. This specific was revealed to the proprietor's father twelve years ago, who then outscred thirty him self of a very obst inate case of inflammatory gof y e ars' standing, end although on that occasion he had been confined to his bearrooln for two months, he wa tion. S s enable in d t ce o walk two mile s within sichowl after the applica that period thousands, from the noble to the peasant, have been eared by it. In short. it is no exaggeration to assert that it has never been known to fail in effecting a cure, where the proprie, tor instructns have been attended to. Its extraordinary efficacy has beets for . years tested by several medical gentlemen of distinguished eminence, who declare it to be the greatest discovery every made in medical science, The superiority it possesses over every other remedy consists in its being an in vegetable compound, in the perfect security with certainty of its being a sound, safe, tXiicV!t may be used (outwardly) by the most afflicted and of the above-named maladies in all n t e , xt it e rt r i rr i in the their terrible and agenizing forms.

CHRONICLE.—We regret to have to notice to day the stoppage of the old and respected firm of Messrs. Wright and Co., bankers, Covent-garden. The nume rous speculations, however, in which Mr. John Wright was known to be engaged, led the more observant and prudent people to watch this establishment for some time past, and the event was in many quarters by no means unexpected. The announcement, therefore, was not attended with any effect upon the funds ; and we believe we may say safely, that no bad consequences are likely to be experienced, in regard to the position of other banks, by the unfortunate suspension of payments on the part of Messes. Wright and Co. The subjoined circular, issued to-day by the head of the firm, corres ponds with the view we have taken of the cause which led to their stoppage. '• It is with feelings of the deepest regret, that owing to my inability any longer to support some large mer cantile undertakings, in which I bad most incautiously and improperly engaged, I have unfortunately so com promised the credit of our banking-house, as to compel . it to suspend its payments. " I still hope these will, if not hastily hurried to a close, indemnify our creditors against ultimate loss ; but, should the result prove otherwise, I must, in justice to my partners, acquit them of all blame, and impute solely to myself the lamentable consequences which have now ensued both in their regard, and in that of those es teemed friends who have reposed such unbounded con fidence in our establishment.

He was against the absolute a ;celintoletr i ths*. o; tree. The decree was, however, accepted - by a veil large majority. Another resolution was passed, em powering the Committee to negotiate without delay with New Granada and the Ecuador for their respec tive portions of the Colombian debt, on Vie same con ditions as those agreed to by Venezuela. It was inti mated to the bondholders, that with regard to Vene zuela the money was here, and the dividends wou'd be paid as soon as the necessary arrangements bad been made for the issuing of the new bonds. During the debate in the Portuguese Chamber of Deputies on the ion . g agitated subject of the navigation of the Douro, the following argument concerning it is said to have been made use of by one of the members : —He said (he Treaty was sub:flitted to the house to wards the end of January, 1;53G, by the Marquis do Louie, the Minister at that time, at whc sari quest it was lodg( d with the secretaries, in order that it might at some future time be sent to the proper comm.ttec.

Wright and Co It is useless to hazard conjectures as to the con ectness of the various causes assigned for this lamented oc currence, which, indeed, in all probability, thrives its origin from a combination of difficulties, rather than from any particular one. The President steamer had not been heard of in the City up to this evening. Mr. Jaudon had engaged a berth in her. The English Funds closed firmly. For present trans fer the quotation on the Stock Exchange was 891 to, and private bargains, after busiaess terminated, were made as high as 89i to 90. Exchequer Bills brought s. to 3s. discount ; Bank Stock 1591 to i ; India Stock 241, and the Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents. 974 to 4. The Foreign Stocks were not buoyant, but generally they maintained their previous value. The Active, Spanish Bonds were quoted 23. to 4, the Portuguese Regency 36, Colombian 254 to 4, Mexican 291, Buenos Ayres 17i, Dutch Five per Cents. 97i to 981, and Belgian Scrip A- premium. The Railway Shares were much the same as on Satui day. At the meeting of South American Bondholders held to-lay, the propositions of Venezuela were accepted, and a unanimous vote of thaLks was passed to Lord Palmerston for his support. At the meeting of the Colombian Bondholders to-day resolutions were passed authorising the Committee to accede to the decree issued by the Government of Ve nezuela for the liquidation of the portion of the foreign debt of Colombia attaching to that State, dated at Caraccas, the 16th of September, in so far as the bond holders present at the meeting were concerned. A re solution was alto unanimously passed, expressing the respectful acknowledgments of the meeting for the as sistance rendered to the bondholders, in the settlement thus eff,..cted with Venezuela, by her Majesty's Secre tary of State for Foreign Affairs, and her Majesty's Charge d'Affaires, at Caraccas, acting under his Lord ship's instructions, and their hope that they shall con tinue to experience the like valuable aid in the settle ment with the remaining States formerly composing the Republic of Colombia. Some anxiety is felt about the President steamer, not y et : t ahke e been whichre e e i gt n ui saileda morerl t accounted which sailed from New York for Liverpool on the 2d instant, no news of her arrival having been received in the City at the close of business. An accident to her machinery has probably been the cause of delay, and it Is possible enough that the winds, although favourable for her course in the quarter we had them here, may have been contrary in the latitudes where the President encountered them. The passage has certainly been un roefmatrhkeabNle,ewbuYork e the day before the p u steamers s r ueasil Oxford dlye Pres i den t , p i t a n c hitherto h g kest - a s n n h d oi machinery of the steamer was disabled early in her passage, we need not be astonished that she has not yet appeared if obliged to trust to her canvas. TIMES.—The English funds have been pretty ac tive all day, without any immediate cause ; but it is presumed, from the turn of affairs just prior to the closing of the market, that the advance is occasioned by speculation. Nevertheless a good deal of general business has been done. At the meeting of Colombian bondholders which was held to-day, the decree passed by the Govern -Izitthey o ught to receive, it would perhaps lead ment of Venezuela offering terms of compromise to discharge its acknowledge d liabilit y of 28 i per cent, of the entire debt due from the Colombian Republic, was brought under discussion , an d was ver y favourabl y re ceived.

Sea, —As a reader of your invaluablepaper toa parlour company in this city, I have taken the liberty of intruding a remark upon the late accident upon the railway at Har row, which I should not have done, had I not known the parties, Simpson and Dawson (who came to their prema ture death by the above), from their infancies. They were both apprenticed to the glove cutting, which occupation they followed until a short time previous to getting a si tuation on the railway. I therefore think publicity should be given to the above, as a warning to the public; for I make no manner of doubt there are many engineers, on the different lines of railway, who, when some branches of their trade weredepressed (as the glove trade is), were glad to get any situation for a livelihood. But, for the public safety, none but an experienced engineer should be the driver of a railway locomotive, for, in the above instance, you might as well have taken a man from the plough, as the parties in question ; but I suppose the Railw..y Proprietors can make engineers, after a few lessons, similar to the numberless scribes who teach the art of writing in six les sons, for 1/. ls, It is time this was put a stop to, instead of suffering the lives of the community to be placed in jeopardy, in a train with an unskilful driver. By inserting the above, you will oblige ' yours respectfully, THOMAS PRITCHARD. Worcester, November 22, 1840. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVALS.

LATE MEETING AT NORWICH. The importance of the late demonstration made by the people at Norwich, as an indication of the feelings of the multitude, induces us to lay before our readers an abridged account of the proceedings of Mr. awer and his friends as we find them reported in the Nolfiilk Chronicle, a Tory Paper : . . . After the Bishop of Norwich hal sat down, who was interrupted in the manner we mentioned on Saturday, the following scene took place ; The HIGH SHERIFF—IS there any one who wishes to propose any amendment to this resolution ? DOVER rose amidst loud cheers from the Chartists. The HIGH SHERIPF, having inquired his name, asked Dover whether he was an inhabitant of the county or a freeholder ? DOVER—I am a freeholder of the county and a freeman of the City of Norwich.—(Cheers from the Chartists.) The HIGH SHERIFF—If you are a freeholder, of course I shall be very happy to hear you.—(Loud cheers from the Chartists.) DOTER then said he considered that there was a mis understanding as to the extent of slavery that existed. He thought he was capable of proving that the gentle men who had addressed the meeting were advocates of slavery.—(Exclamations of " No, no," and " Yee, yes," from the Chartists.) They were told that Bishops should not be avaricious or fond of filthy lucre. The HIGH SHERIFF.—If you will remember in open ing this meeting I requested that every gentleman ad dressing it would confine himself to the particular sub ject upon which we are met ; you are now deviating from it.—(Hear, and-cheers.) Keep strictly to the text. DOVER—You allow Mr. Bishop to make a long pre amble about the requisition, that was not on the sub ject. I heard Mr. Bishop from the pulpit in the Ca thedral say, that with respect to a factory in St. Ed mund's, that it caused 20,0001. in cash to be spent in wages, and that 1,000 persons were employed there ; why, if there are 1,000 persons employed and 20,000/. spent, how much is that a week each? Why, eight shillings, and is not that slavery ? And he is at the same time receiving his 12,0001. a year.—(Loud cries of " No, no," cheers from the Chartists, and cries of " Pour-laws.") I will give you another specimen of the Bishop's consistency ; one day he comes down here and presides at a temperance meeting, and the next day goes to a wine party. Is that consistent? The HIGH SHERIFF—I won't allow you to go on, un less you keep strictly to the text. . . DOVER — I am. The HIGH SHERIFF—That is not the text. DOVER—I shall now begin my address, by putting a few questions. The first is, what is slavery ? That is an important question to settle. For man to be the individual property of man, is to be a slave. If a man is called upon to produce and don't re ceive an equivalent, he is a slave. Do, then, the men who produce everything get a fair equivalent?— (Cries of `. No, no.") The amount produced in this country by labour is three hundred millions. There arc 25 millions of people in this country, but then five millions of labourers produce this three hundred mil lions. It is a fact that the population is 25 millions, the produce 300 millions, and the labourers five mil lions. Having come to this point, I show that one man produces sufficient for five ; but what do they return ? Is it a fair equivalent to those who produce all their wealth ? I am aware that the question may be asked, how fur we would go, and where we would stop ? Our answer is, that there is a great gap between the producer and the receiver, which must be filled up. lem not a legislator, and therefore I shall not pretend to determine how ; but those men who have the management of affairs ought to fill it up, so that there shall not be so many people starving, whilst others are rolling in luxury.—(Cheers from the Char tists.) In order to prove this clearly, we must go hack to first principles. Suppose a number of persons to be thrown on a foreign island—if one man is made to produce for two, he is the slave of the other man, who, from being possessed of one slave, becomes afterwards ipfoas all s s t h e ( e l o w f e n a l l o t h r e. w a s W n l o ie t r ep produced you, u l ce dby te Gentlemen, labourer?b e Why, a great number of us are slaves politically. Let those who have a voice, hold up their hands. I will fur . _ one (holding up his hand). Come, Gentlemen, don't be ashamed.—( Laughter.) Why not? Why should not those who have an interest in the affairs of the country have a voice? Look at Assurance Societies ; if anything is to be proposed, the members are called together, and all have a voice. Look at Bible meet- ings ; they are on the same principle. If the principle is bad, why apply it in these cases? If it is good in these cases why not carry it out ? If a man is to be put down without having a fair voice, that man is a slave, and Ge ought to be if be is content to remain so. —CChecrs from the Chartists.) So far for political slavery. What is the consequence ? I will tell you what has been if I don't tell you what may be. The _ _ people of France in 1793 considered themselves op pressed, and they struck, but in consequence of the slaves in other countries taking part against them, they were put down. Poland wanted to emancipate herself from the slavery of Russia, and, shame upon English men, they never lent her a helping hand when she called for assistance.—(Cheers from the Chartists. A voice —" What do you think of that Mr. Bishop.") The money spent by this country in putting the people of France down was near 850 millions, France nearly the same, and the small States also contributed to keep down the emancipation of France. This country had voted 20 millions under pretence of putting down sla very.—(A voice—" We don't intend to give them 20 millions more.") I hold a Jamaica paper in my hand, and I find the clergy prominent advocates of slavery. And in this country do the clergy ever raise their voice in the pulpit to put down British slavery ?—(Cheers.) There is soother kind of slavery, mental slavery : the system is to pay thousands a year to enslave the minds of the people, teaching passive obedience and preaching doctrines they never act upon. No ! Englishmen have had their pockets picked of eight millions-500 thousand minds are enslaved. But the scales are fallen from their eyes, and the voice of the people must be attended to. Dover then moved : " That this meeting views with deep regret the many proofs of despotic slavery now increasing at home, and it therefore pledges itself to use all its exertions to put a final stop to slavery wherever it is found to exist." ROBERT PAINE next presented himself. The HIGH SHERIFF—Are you a freeholder ? PAlNE—Certainly not. I am too much of a slave for that. The HIGH SHERIFF—I cannot hear you if you are not a freeholder or inhabitant of the county. PAINE—If I am to be put down because I live in the city, if I am—(Cries of " Chair, chair," and much con fusion.) The HIGH SHERIFF—HoId hard, gentlemen ; as you Paine do not belong to the county I cannot and will not hear you, and I will trouble you to sit down. My duty requires me to take this step.—(Cheers.) A person stood up near Dover, amidst cheering from the Chartists. The limit SHERIFF—What is your name? The PERSON—Thomas Hewitt. The HIGH SHERIFF—Do you belong to the county ? HEWITT—I belong to Hoveton St. John, and live two stones-throw over Wroxham Bridge.—( Laughter.) HIGH SHERIFF—If you are an inhabitant of the county go ou. HEWITT—If I am a slave now I don't mean to be a slave much longer if I can help it.—(Cheers from the Chartists.) I would wish to raise up my voice in be half of my poor fellow-countrymen. You are all aware that last Friday a meeting was held here, for the pur pose, Mr. Gurney told you, of doing away with slavery all the world over. He certainly made a beginning, but where did Mr. Gurney begin ? Why at North America.—(Laughter from the Chartists.) I won't go so far as that.—(Cheers from the Chartists.) I will begin at the workhouse door.—(Renewed cheers from same quarter.) I shall ask Mr. Gurney to go at a quarter before six to the workhouse, and he will see girls without hats or shoes, and their poor mothers may afterwards be seen supping from a mess not fit for pigs. No, we must have a different mess to that. I will make one statement. but this is not an individual case mind. No, no. On Sunday last I met a weaver of stuffs. Mr. Willett knows what stuffs mean. He had just finished his piece. I asked him how much he got for it. He told rue nine shillings. I asked him how long it took him. He said sixteen hours a day for a week ; he was not one of your idle hands you know ; and he bad six children, his wife, and himself to maintain upon this nine shillings. The man said I am now going to dinner and breakfast, so I thought I would see what he had. Why he had got one of John Harvey's messes, red herrings and pota toes.—(Laughter from the Chartists.) I find after ex penses to pay this weaver has but three halfpence per day for each of his family to live on. I should like to go with the Bishop of Norwich at any time, and I would show him hundreds of such cases in this city. He may see children with father and mother in one room, with a bundle of straw only far their bed. I say then to the Bishop and Mr. Gurney, instead of talking about slavery abroad, look at home. Let them not take us to Ken tucky, no, no, look at home. At the last meeting Mr. Gurney told us lie was invited by the Ne g roes to !I pie they had for dinner, s oup, fish, little p gs ! y nic party ; for my part I did not kiio what pic-nic meant. But, said Mr. Gurney, I will .tell ems, and you what such like.—(LaughterMr. Gurney did not tell the Negro es the y were better a mongst the Chartists.) But off than his own countrymen.—(Cheers from the Char fists.) Mr. Gurney did not tell them that we have a Queen to whom we pay 385,0004 a-year ;he did not THE FAVOURITE ANNUAL.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the c dinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes., and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habit., would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in nine tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, hart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits, practised by youth much more fre quently than is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temporarily, at least the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed, and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often concealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be compromised, unless the evil be checked in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real cause of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character, is at once concentrated the twofold relation of parent and instructor, will here bo directed as to the nature of those habits, to which youth is addicted; he will also be enabled to point outs. he disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if not relinquished.

The betting yesterday afternoon ranged over a consider able number of horses , and was not unimportant in its cts on the odds against the principal favourites. Camelion was backed at small sums at 16 and 18 to 1, but was so feebly supported on the whole, that he receded to 20 to 1. The Rosalie colt was in general request, arid a trifle was got on at 20 to 1, the backers, however, were eager, and the layers so shy that the highest odds obtainable at the close were 17 to 1 ; and that he was the first favourite, was proved by an unaccepted , offer t o b ac k h i m aga i s t an ythi n g for 500. Marshal Souk was backed freely at 20 to 1, at which figure two or three parties were willing to go on ; the same odds were taken about Eringo, to about two hundred and fifty pounds, and about Coronation to a small sum. Wahab and Sir Hans were in rather strong demand, and the former, after 1,000 to 30 had been laid four or five times, advanced three p o i nts, an d w i th b ac k ers. The Duke of Wellington was a shade better than last weeK, and several outsiders were supported at extravagant odds. The closing prices were as follow : DERBY. 4 to 1 agst Scott's lot 17 to 1 agst Rosalie colt 20 to 1 agst Coronation—taken 20 to 1 agst Marshal Soult —taken freely 20 to 1 agst Eringo—taken 20 to 1 agst Camelion 28 to 1 agst Sir Hans—taken 30 to 1 agst Ralph—taken 30 to 1 agst Wahab—taken 30 to 1 agst Duke of Wellington—taken, and after. wards offered 2000 to 50 agst Brother to Tom—taken 45 to i agst Brother to Bosphorus—taken, and after wards offered offered Muley—t a k en • - s0 to ,rrippes=rakan: arils - algred 3,000 to 50 age Aft' s " a r 1000 to 15 Apt Snowdipp—taken and afterwards offered 4000 to 40 agat Finchl6.—taken 2000 to 20 agst Little Tom—ditto 1000 to 10 agat Traffic —ditto 41k 1000 to 10 agst Sycophant —ditto 30 to 1 agst Sir G.

(From the Morning Ad ver ti ser .) i It will be seen that a slight omission occurre d i n t h e i n l d V o e w g s v e b a t h former article supplied to cur readers, which is now completely rectified by what appears in the following expose :—We gave an article a few days since on the window duties, and we then stated that we had not gone into the Acts authorising a composition for assessed taxes. The Composition Act, 4 and 5 NV. IV. c. 54, enacts " that every person who was or shored be duly assessed, or who had evmpoundcd under former acts for his dwelling-house, warehouse, shop, or other premises, in respect to the windows and lights therein, for the year ending the .sth day of April, 1835, should be entitled to make or open, and keep open, free of duty, any additional number of windows or lights in his dwelling-house, warehouse, shop, or other premises, so assessed or compounded for, and that no person, not so assessed or compounding, by reason of his dwel ling-house, warehouse, shop, or other premises, not containing seven windows or lights, should be brought into assessment or made liable to rates and duties, be cause of the opening of any additional number of win dows or lights in such dwelling-house, warehouse, shop, or ether premises." There is a pros iso that if any such person as aforesaid, whether he should be assessed or have compounded or should be liable to be assessed or not, should erect or build any addition to such his dwelling-house, warehouse, shop, or pre raises, or make or open any communication with any other tenement or building adjoining or near thereto, then and in such case all the windows and lights in such dwelling-house, warehouse, shop, or premises, and in such additional or adjoining tenement or building, should be rated and assessed together to the said duties in like manner as the same would before the passing of this Act be liable to be rated and assessed under any Act or Acts in force. By the 4th Geo. IV. chap. 11, one-half of the window duties were repealed, and that Act contains an enactment which, by mistake in our former article, was stated to be contained in the Act 57th Gen. 111. cap. 25, and the enactment is, that from the sth of April, 1823, so much of the duties ou windows or lights in shops or warehouses being parts of dwelling-houses, is respect of any number not ex ceeding three such windows or lights in any shop or warehouse in the front or fronts, and on the groun t i or basement story of every dwelling-house occupied by any person or persons in trade who shall expose to sale or sill any goods, wares, or merchandizes in any such shop or warehouse, shall cease and determine. We have to add that it is not this clause, but the other exemption in the Act 57th George 111., cap. 25, sec. 1, which is extended by the sth George IV., cap, 44, to offices or counting-houses for the purpose of ex ercising or carrying on any profession, vocation, or business. In the Act 57th George 111., cap 25, there is a proviso that the occupier of any mill or place o f manufacture, or warehouse, not being part or parcel of any dwelling-house, nor attached or adjoining to any dwelling-house, nor having any internal communication therewith, may, by the licence in writing of the Com missioners of the district, signed by them, or any three or more of them assembled at any meeting, after due notice given by the occupier of such mill or place of manufacture, appoint any one of his or her servants, named in such licence, to watch and guard the said mill or place of manufacture or warehouse in the night time, and that the abiding of such licensed servant therein for the purpose of watching and guarding the same, shall not render the occupier thereof liable to any of the duties granted by the Act 48th of George 111., cap. 55.

If we are well informed, the English Ministry gives in it an assurance that Great Britain is constantly disposed to unite its efforts with those of France, to obtain from the Sultan the revocation of the decree of deposition against Mehemet Ali.
