Furtl'er information given at the Company's Office, 24, Water-street. SAMUEL PERRY, Agent. KE-SHIN, " THE DREADED HOUR." IF there be anything in a name, that of Ke-shin, the Chi. 1 nese Commissioner nominated to meet Elliott at Canton, is, in its Chinese definition, given above, ominous of sad results. Our previous knowledge of Ke-shin's opinion of the best " MODE OF MANAGING THE ENGLISH," gives us reason to " dread the hour" when' he shall sit in judgment upon English commerce. Ke t skin, in a memorial addressed to the Emperor in Decembeig/1838, recommends him to " put an entire stop to all foreigh intercourse for ten years, when," he says," the English w ill pay go ld an d s i lver for Tea and Rhubarb." " The Foreigners,' i- f says Ke shn ' " subsist day by da y u p on beef and mutton, and every day, after meals, they take this DIVINE MEDICINE (i. e. Tea and Rhubarb), in order to get a motion in their bowels." This is the advice of Ke-shin, the most influential minister at the Court of Pekin, and now appointed Fxaminer of the English. Our unsuspicious Admiral, all-powerful whilst relying upon his carronades, has been cajoled by the wily Ke-shin into exchanging them for a goose. quill, d, and is to meet him, not on his proper element, but in Ke-shin's own city, Canton. CAPT . PIDDING's predi c ti ons h ave been verified to the letter. No p art of the £3,000,000 is paid, or even promised. Instead of our demands being granted, the inquiry into them was not begun—the Court, a t which , Ke shin of ten years' tea-stopping celebrity is to preside, was not even formed. All, therefore, whether content with Fo kein Bohea or patrons of Captain Pidding's Teas, will act prudently in laying in a good stock ; for if Ke-shin acts as he advised the Emperor, tea will treble itself. The public— the best judges of all that concern s the palate or the pocket —having purchased above a million cattles of CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS, is sufficient proof of their superior quality ; but besides being used at the Palace, CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS are the only kind admitted at the table of fashion, while the frugal find that their strength renders them the most economical. Be particular in askieg for CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEA, and observe that all pack ages have the signature of " CAPT. JOHN RHODES PIDDING." The present reduced price of Captain Pidding's Howqua's Mixture, Black Tea, is 6s. 4d. per lb., being Bs. 6d. the catty package ; and for Howqua's Small Leaf Gunpowder Tea, is 95. per lb., being 12s. the catty package, half and quarter eatties in proportion.

I have been attacked with Rheumatiu'Aout three times in the last twelve months ; the first time - I was under my usual Medical Attendant, and was confined for eight weeks—the second time I took, according to the directions, the medicine called Blair's Gout Pills, but did not derive any benefit for seven years—in the last attack, the most severe of the three, I was recommended by Mr. Morton, your agent for Hinckley, to take your Gout and Rheumatic Pills, which gave me immediate relief, and removed every symptom in the course of a week. I have since recommended them to two persons, one with Face Ache, the other with Rheumatism, both of which were cured by one small box.—l am, sir, yours, gratefully, JOHN ORTON. _ - Stoney Stanton, Leicestershire, July 8, 1839. The above is another proof of the astonishing efficacy of these celebrated Pills, which have in a few years outrivalled all other medicines in use, for the Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, Paralytic Affections, Face, ache, Pains in the Limbs, Diseases of the Bladder, Urethra, &c. They are applauded by all classes of society, as the best, the safest, and most expeditious, and cheapest remedy ex tant ; they are, in fact, the only certain cure for these dis tressing complaints ; their operation is almost imperceptible, they do not require the slightest confinement or any alteration in the usual avocations of life ; they relieve the most acute suffering in a few hours, and invariably effect a cure in a few days, as thousands who have been restored to health and vigour by their use can testify, after all other remedies had failed, and who were deemed past recovery by medical men of the first eminence. Nearly one hundred well authenticated testimonials are given with each box of the pills.

The invested fund has enabled the Committee to meet this excess of expenditure, but in order that they may be in a situation to continue the aid already afforded, and to consider the many pressing and important cases which they have been compelled reluctantly to postpone, they are induced to make a further appeal, trusting that a measure of additional sup port will be afforded to the Society commensurate with the amount of spiritual destitution they are called upon to re lieve. Subscriptions of any amount will be thankfully received in London, by the Treasurer, Committee, or Secretaries. Also at the banking-houses of Messrs.

TOWN COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS On Tuesday, at eleven o'clock in the forenoon, a special meeting of the Town -council was held in the Council -cham ber, Town-hall, to take into consideration and determine upon the report of the Finance Committee on the dock bill, as corrected in accordance wtih the special report adopted by the council on the 27th of January last. THE NEW DOCK BILL. The TOWN-CLERK read over the former report of the Fi nance Committee, adopted by the council on the 27th Jan. last, suggesting certain alterations in the bill, made as a com promise, with the intention of doing away with all reasonable objections. The report of the Finance Committee, setting forth that they had taken due care that the bill was altered so as to ac cord with the several items, was read. The TOWN-CLERK then read those clauses in the bill which were new, such being the clauses founded on the suggestions in the report. The clause for erecting warehouses on the west quay of the Prince's Dock had been struck out, and a clause substituted for erecting transit sheds on the west quay of the Prince's Dock had been struck out, and a clause sub ststuted for erecting transit sheds on the west quay of that dock, with huts, offices, &c., was substituted ; such sheds to be so contracted as to combine security to the revenue with the greatest despatch to business. Mr. PROCTER said, it was unfair to the council to call them together to discuss the clauses of a bill which had only been placed in their hands the day before. He, for his own part, had not read the bill. The MAyoa called Mr. Procter to order for interrupting the Town-clerk. The TOWN-cueux read the clause giving power to erect transit sheds on the west quay of some other dock, on the completion of those on the west quay of the Prince's Dock, with a proviso that it was not imperative on the trustees to do so if they found those sheds did not answer. Mr. AIKIN said, if the Finance Committee had gone through the bill, and had found that it accorded entirely with the recommendations of their report, that ought to be suf ficient. The MAYOR called Mr. Aikin to order. Clause 50 of the bill, it was stated, had been inserted by mistake. It was to be obliterated, as clause 83 had been substituted for it. _ _ Mr. PROCTER said, if he were in order, it was his intention to move that the consideration of the bill should be postponed for one week. The MAYOR said Mr. Procter was not in order. MC'TOWN-CLERK read the clause (67) which had been in serted to meet that part of the report which stipulated, that the occupancy of the warehouses by the trustees shall be sub jected to the payment of parochial and other rates, in like manner as other warehouses occupied by private persons. The Town-clerk said he had, on the preceding night, received an intimation from the dock solicitor of a clause for autho rising the trustees to take charge in their warehouses of goods as lien for freight, &c. The 12th clause, which related to a pledge not to erect any other dock warehouses till four years from the time when the proposed dock warehouses shall be completed, is to he submitted to the committee of the House of Commons. and to be inserted in the bill if there were no parliamentary objection. It had already been adopted in the council in the report of the committee. Mr. 11 von HORNBY said the Finance Committee had acted in accordance with the instructions of the Council ; they had examined the bill and had found that the report which the Council had sdopted had been strictly complied with. Any hurry that might appear in bringing that bill be fore the Council arose out of the anavoidable necessity which existed for the committee to get the measure before the par liamentary committee. Though the committee had arrived at a satisfactory conclusion on the bill, they thought it neces sary to let the Council see it first. He moved that the re port of the Finance Committee be received, and that the Council do proceed to the consideration of each clause se parately. Mr. - CASE.—I beg leave to second that. Mr. PROCTER believed that the Finance Committee had done all that they could, but, speaking for himself, he must say that this great hurry was too much for the council to swallow. He moved, as an amendment, that the considera tion of the bill be postponed one week. He thought this haste was unfair to all parties. He understood that the bill had already been read a second time to the House of Coin mons. He had himself found it impossible to read the bill in the short time it had been in his possession. Mr. BIRKETT seconded the amendment. He had been much startled to find that the committee-day was actually fixed for Friday next. Surely they ought to have time to look through the clauses of the bill, and to see if its details carried out what had been agreed upon. The bill was scarcely in 'his hands when he learned that the day was fixed for the sitting of the committee of the house. He wished to have time for consideration, unless it were intended to cram the bill down their throats. They had been used in a way they did not expect, and the result would be that they would be driven to write to Lord Sandon to request him to postpone the committee meeting. Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE was sorry to differ from his friends, especially as they had some reason to complain on account of the bill having not been placed in their hands till the prece ding day. The fact was, however, that it had been in every body's hands much longer, though not exactly in its present form. They had had it some time back, but without the re cent alterations, which were matters that had been agreed upon and were well known. As Chairman of the West In dia Association, he had been in possession of the bill ten days. All they had now to do was to see that the Finance Committee had done their duty, which he was sure they had. He thought they ought not now to throw any obstacles in the way of the bill, and as to interfering with the parliamen committee it was out of the question. Were the really and bona fide satisfied with the arrangement come to for merly ? If so they ought not now to cause any delay, and he thought the postponement for a week would do no good. Mr. HARBORD said he had not seen a copy of the bill till the preceding day, and he had not yet read a word of it. He had heard the dimensions of the transit sheds, but had heard no dimensions for the warehouses. Not having read the bill and not being satisfied that they were protected by it, for it might he intended to build to any extent for aught he knew, he agreed with Mr. Procter and thought the subject ought to be postponed. There ought to be a clause as to the stories and surface. (Several voices, "It is particularly specified.") Mr. CASE said the plans had already been approved in Council, and the clauses were framed in accordance with the The TOWN-CLERK showed that the bill as at present framed could not have been handed to the members sooner than it was, and that the bill nearly in that form had been in pos session of the Council since October last ; while the heads of the bill had been at that time made public, the only new subjects in the present bill being those respecting the transit sheds. Mr. HODGSON supported the amendment. Mr. G. Hour showed that there had not been any delay but what was unavoidable. Mr. SH ELL would vote for the amendment. As be was not a member of either of the committees, or of the other privileged body which had had the bill ten days ago, but merely a member of that Council, he had never got the bill till the preceding day. He objected to many clauses of the bill, but he would not state his objections then, because he hoped the subject would be postponed. Mr. ISAAC HOLMES said it would be the safest course to adjourn. Mr. Birkett had stated that he would write to Lord Sandon if they proceeded. He thought they would go on with the bill much faster if they had unanimity. It would be better to put the committee off till after the Easter recess. Mr. EARLE said the subject was referred to the Finance Committee for them to settle it, and be did not think that there ought now to be any factious opposition. He was sur prised at what had fallen from Mr. Sheil, who had not had time to examine the bill, and yet had many objections to its clauses. The Council went to the vote on Mr. Procter's amend ment, when there appeared : For the amendment.—Messrs. Hodgson, Isaac Holmes, Copeland, Barton, Toulmin, Birkett, Procter, Kilshaw, R. Jones, J. Smith, Harbord, and Sheil. Against the amendment.—Messrs. John Holmes, Quayle, Houghton, Case, H. Holmes, Mellor, Aikin, Woollright, Bright, H. Horuby, Yates, Robinson, Gladstone, Slater, Leigh, G. H. Lawrence, M'Kee, Platt, A.. Smith, Mather, J. llornby, Freme, Booth, Evans, Earle, Berm, Moon, G. Holt, C. H. Jones, Sir Joshua Walinsley, and the Mayor. For the amendment, 12 ; against it, 31 ; majority, 19. In reply to a question from Mr. BIRKF:TT, The MAYOR said all the. clauses of the bill were not under the consideration of the Council, but only those which re lated to the new matter. Mr. BIRXETT complained greatly of this, as he had strong objections to the third clause. _ Mr. EVANS said he had hitherto abstained from speaking, because he had nothing to add to the observations of the gentlemen who had remarked on the subject. He found, however, that there were great drafts on his patience when he saw parties play fast and loose in this manner. The bill, with the exception of the few altered clauses, was the law of the council. It was upon the compromise embodied in that bill that they had given up one wing of the warehouses, and made other concessions, and the council was morally bound to abide by the stipulation. He was astonished at what he had witnessed, after what had passed. It would be disgrace ful to the lowest vestry meeting in the kingdom to act in such a way. He wished the gentleman knew his church catechism and the ten commandments as well as he knew that bill and every part of it. He deplored the course that he saw a dis position to pursue, because its tendency would be to degrade the council in the eyes of the country. After a few observations from Mr. EIRKtTT, the council proceeded to the consideration of the new clauses. Clauses 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, and 49, giving power to erect transit sheds, &c., were passed unaltered, with some demur on the part of :Messrs. Isaac Holmes, Birkett, and Harbord. Clause 50 struck out and 83 substituted. Clause 51, 52, and 55, all altered clauses, were passed, To 56 an addition had been proposed by the dock solicitor, that, at the new dock with warehouses, all vessels, save foreign, should be com pelled to employ the servants of the trustees. This gave rise to a very long discussion. Some members wished that the English and foreign vessels should be put on the same footing, others wished that all should be allowed to employ their crews or who they liked on board their vessels, while only the servants of the trust should be employed on the quays. The town-clerk at length entirely altered the terms of the intended clause, and we believe it is to undergo still further modification, so that it may meet the views of both the committee and the parties who objected to it in its first form.
