KA.
COM PA SY,
Constituted a Joint-Stock Company by an Act of the Gal
George IV, 1825.
This important undertaking is supported by many of the leading
Merchants, Shipowners, and Traders of the 51 etropolis, who are
deenly interested in promoting its commercial prosperity.
The necessity of giving to the public additional einvenient wet
dock and bonding accommodation near the seat of business in the
port of !London, and of securing to it a reduction in the rates and
charges, has long been experienced. ill oderme rates upon the land-
ing, housing, tent, shipping, Ace. of goods, are essential foe the pm,
pose of bringing this port nearer to a level, in point of expense, not
only with the other ports of the empire to which the privilege of
bonding is extended, but more particularly with the principal ports
of the Continent of Europe, which, in consequence of their lower
charges, attract a very large proportion of the trade of transit which
would otherwise resort to London.
The prosperity which cannot but attend that lucrative branch of
commerce, tint . r the improved commercial code of the country,
especially if acesrnpanial by a diminution in the port charges, moat
be apparent from the great increase which, even under existing cir-
cumstances, has already been experienced, since the passing of the
Warehousing Act, in July, IW—four-fifths of which increase has
been enjoyed by the pert of London..
The London Dock ie the only. general bonding establishment
within tlztasiles and a tali-tees Uwe 'Royal Ectchange, and that
&see ndf afford itreadowtsdation r the increase

. of
trade which has already taken place ; still less.tr therefore. can it
preside for the additional rxtewt of business that may confidently
be expected to flow eut of thiaeshlightened principles of legislation
which are so eminent) to promote and extend the corn-
)/
metes and natigatiori the British Empire, and make the Port of
London
place theceergeti um beenoftb
e world.
The selected
for the construction of the pro-
posed nviiss, Warehouses, Quays, &c. which will be surrounded
with w iis, so as to entitle them to all the privileges of the ware-
houoig system and of legal.gaisys, Is situated between the Tower
anethe Loudon Docks, a -situation unparalelled in point of con-
mnience.

The advanced state of qiefence in engineering and architecture,
with the present price of !wilding materials, will enable the pro-
moters of the measure, noterithstanding the comparatively limited
site, to afford to the public accommodation for warehoueing. bond..
lag, and quay-room, nearly equal in extent to the London Docks ;
and from an improved construction of the warehouses, which will
be erected within a few feet of the margin of the docks and basis,
a very considerable annual saving will be effected in the expense of
labourage.
It is computed that the St. Katharine Docks and Buin will, with
great convenience, afford accommodation, annually, for about 1,400
merchant ships, including private trade Indiamen, besides craft for
loading and discharging. Increased facilities will be 'Wended to
the ingress and egress of shipping by the improved application of
mechanical powers, by means of which ships and lighters, at a
very trifling expense to the Company, may, in the night 3A well us
by day, be locked in and out of the dcrke during any period of
tide ; as the sills of the outward gates will be so cons.ructed as to
provide for ten feet depth at low water, and from twenty-six to
thir:y feet at the height of timing tides.
According to the estimates proved before Committees of Parlist.
meat, the total cost of the site, the purchase of buildings, leases,
and the various interests concerned, including compensations and
expenses of carrying the Act into execution, will he about
1,330,0001.; whilst the capital stock of the London Dock Company
amounts to upwards of 3.2,10,000/.
Calculating upon the above estimates of outlay, with an ample
provision fur extraordinary contingencies and unforeseen demands,
including a reserve fund, sad making large allowances for a reduc-
tion in the rates of the port, the profits are estimated to be such as
will yield a satisfactory return to the subscribers on their in-
vestment.° The profits thus estimated may be anticipated with the
greater confidence, because the calculation proceeds on the suppo.
anion of an extent of business equal to only three-fourths of the
capacity of the proposed docks and warehouses, whereas it may
fairly be expected, that the inestimable advantage of proximity of
situation, and the attention which will be paid to every possible im.
provement in management, may eccure fall employment, and, con-
sequently, still larger returns to the proprietors.
.The Act provides for tl.e payment of interest to the subscribers
upon their instalments, after the rate of 4 per cent. per annum; until
the works shall have been completed.
A deposit of 3 per cent. upon the sums subscribed has been made ;
and upon payment of the tint call, a scrip recciprewill he issued w
the proprietors ; after which, sales of shares may take place.
The calls arc limited to 10 per cent. upon a two months' notice.
No person will be answerable beyohd the amount of stock stand.
ing in his name.
At the expiration of one year, to be reckoned from the opening
of the docks for business, a dividend will be declared and paid, and
after that period half-yearly, regard being had to the creation of a
reserved fund for repairs and contingencies.
An account of the concerns of the Company for the preceding
year will be laid before the proprietors at the annual meetings, and
may be inspected by then' a few days previous to such meetings.
The direction is composed of the following Gentlemen :

p INNOCK'S CATECHISMS of the ARTS and
SCIENCES. •
These Catechisms are intended to form the basis of every branch
of useful knowledge, and are of themselves, in fact, " an Epitome
of the Arts and Sciences." The style in which they are written is
at once clear and simple, conveying instruction to the youthful
mind in a manner unattainable by the use of snore elaborate and
comprehensive sv.irks. In short, while they fix on the mind the
leading facts in History, and the fundamental principles of Science,
the memory is relieved from the burthen of retaining a mass of
minutias with which larger books necessarily abound. They con.
slat of separate Catechisms on the following subjects :

The Proprietor of these Publications respectfully submits the
following opinion of the Lord Chancellor of England (the especial
Guardian of British Youth), as delivered by him in the Court of
Chancery, July 27, 1819.
Mr. Wetherell having applied to the Lord Chancellor to grant
an Injunction to restrain certain Booksellers from printing, pub.
lishing, and selling, pirated editions of " Pinnock's Catechisms,"
the originals of which he denominated " useful compendiums of
instruction for the juvenile classes of society ;" his Lordship, on
comparing the spurious copies with the genuine works, granted the
injunction ; and after having attentively examined the latter, was
pleased to make the following important observation on them :
` It appears to me that adults might be greatly benefitted by the
instruction these books contain, as well as the younger branches of
society."
The publisher respectfully begs leave to observe, that, independ-
ent of the high encomium above-mentioned, " Pinnock's Cate-
chisms" have met with the general approbation of a most numerous
and respectable class of intelligent teachers. They need only to be
teen to insure their universal adoption ; the information they con-
tain in so small a compass being unparalleled, and the style in
which they are written, combining ease, conciseness, and perspi-
cuity.
" Being led to loot into these works, we have been pleasingly
surprised at the variety and accuracy of the information they con-
tain, within so small a compass, and in so excellent a form ; and
we must say, that more convenient, accurate, well-arranged, and
proper publications, were never submitted to general observation."
—Literary Gazette.
It is necessary to remark, that many spurious Editions, ex-
ternally resembling the above, ere circulated throughout the king.
dom. The public should therefore be cautious to purchase none
but suer as have the none of the publisher (Geo. B. Whittaker) in

HOUSE OF LORDS, FRIDAY, JULY 1.
COMBINATION OF WORKMEN BILL.
Earl FITZ WILLIAM presented • petition from certain inha-
bitants of Sheffield, praying to be heard by Counsel against the
Combination of Workmen Bill.—Laid on the table.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE presented a petition to the same
effect from an individual of the name of Edward Clifford, of fir-
minglumi. The Noble Earl stated, that he did not agree in any of
the allegations of the petition, but looked on the Bill before the
House in a very different sense. He was sure that combinations of
workmen would be as injurious to those workmen as to their
=stet-B.—Laid on Mt table.
On the motion of the Earl of LIVERPOOL, the Combination
of IVorkmen Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be com-
mitted on Monday.-when it was understood that the subject would
be discussed.

prospect. , , . thus ..11 might
Lordships then decided upon sitting to hear appeals ire days in the
week, instead of three, and to sit from 10 in the 'minim until
6 o'clock in the afternoon ; and, in consromencelpf 111.1111frange-
merit the difficulties alluded to had been cohederablwremoved. At
the commencement of the Parliamentary Session of 1324, there
were 282 appeals, and 74 writs of error—making altogether the
number of 336 ; out of which ISO were Scotch. The exertions of
their Lordship% during the last Session had disposed of 146 appeals
and writs of error, and about 40 of the number had been struck
out ; thus leaving at the termination of the Session only 170.
Their Lordships, however, while considering the number of arrears,
must recollect that many more appeals were likely to come in ; and
accordingly, after the last Session, there were 52 new appeals. The
House, therefore, at the beginning of the present Session of Par.
'lament, had 201 appeal?, and 28 writs of error—altogether 229, in.
stead of as at the beginning of the last Session 356. During this
Session their Lordships hal disposed of 126, and consequently tbere
remained 103 appeals and writs of error; and if they went on as they
had done for another year, and calculated the additional ippeals atso,
there would be to be disposed of 150, which, by the exettions of their
Lordships, might be reduced at the erd of the next Session to 26
or 27. Abe whole difficulty woula be thus conquered. He knew
that it would be said " you will have appeals in proportion to the
quickness with which you get rid of them; ' but such was not his
opinion, and he was the more convinced that the contrary would. be
the case, front the tact, that from Scotland, in 11123, there were 59
oppeuls in 39, and in 1825. 29; and he-had reason to expect
Ni the diminution irea,lll be still greater. tie -bad only saw to
propose, that of the five days which their Lordships give up to ap-
peals, one of those days should be employed in the disposal of those
which during that Session came in ; and this would prevent any
inducement to appeal, because of the delay. He had found the
greatest satisfaction to exist, particularly in Scotland, with respect
to the arrangements their Lordships had made; and lie con-
gratulated their Lordships on the prospect of overcoming the dif-
ficulties in their way.
Lord ItOSSLYN completely acquiesced in the view which the
Noble Earl had taken of this subject; and he knew that in Scot-
land, the arrangements upon this subject had given the greatest
satisfaction.
The Scotch Copartnerships Bill; the Isle of Man Trade Bill,
the Scotch Cutting and Maiming 11111, the Smuggling Prevention
Bill, the Warehousing of floods Bill, the Newspaper Bill, arid the
Writs of Error Bill, were read a third time and passed.
The Customs lie,::ulation Bill, the Customs Duties Consolidation
Bill, the Ships' Registry Bill, and the Colonies' Trade Dill, were
respectively passed through Committees.
Col. Cawthorn, and other Members of thellouse of Commons,
brought up the Report of die Committee of Inquiry into the Suite
of Ireland.
The House then Adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, FRIDAY, JULY 1.
I)ECCAN PRIZE-MONEY:
Colonel LUSHINGTON rose to present a petition from several
officers of the Deccan army, complaining of misrepresentation in
the imputation of delay to the trustees appointed to administer dor
Deccan prize-Money. lie was himself interested in the distributins
as well as the officers whose names were subscribed to the present
petition, and he felt in common with them that no blame was in.
potable to the trustees, but that throughout the whole transaction'
they had evinced the most unwearied exertion in endeavouring to
bring it to a speedy and satisfactory termination. They were not
liable to censure surely for the interval of time that had elapsed be-
tween the present period and the time of the issuing the warrant for
their appointment. That warrant did not bear an earlier date than
March 23, 1823 ; and when it was considered the correspondence
that was carried on between the Treasury and the East India Com-
pany, 'and the vatiety of claims to be entertained, it would not be
thought that en unnecessary delay had taken place. He happened
to be in India at the time that the appoixtment of the Duke of
Wellington, as one of the trustees, had been made, and .he could
bear testimony to the great satisfaction with which that appoint-
ment had been received by the army there, from a recollection of
how dear the interests of that army mind be to him who had borne
so memorable a part in its achievements. (Hear.) Claims to the
amount nearly of two mtilions were put leeward in the shone of
most extravagant demands. The lion Member here read the con-
cluding prayer of the petition, which prayed that there might
not be any interruption in the course of proceedings adopted at
present by the trustees. He was desirous of taking this opportu•
nity of stating, that the delay hail been in a great degree occa-
sioned by the extravagant demands of persons for a share in the
distribution, and by the delay in furnishing the lists of Jerson*
who were duly entitled to the prize-money.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER felt great plea-
sure in heating the petition which had been just presented to the
House by his Hon. and Gallant Vriend. The sentiments which it
contained Were quite in unison with his own, as throughout the
whole affair he had thought the Duke of Wellington and 31r. Ar-
buthnot had been most unfairly dealt with. It was certainly his
(the Chancellor of the Exchequer's) imprestron that there'waa not
a single person in this country whose appointment to the office of
trustee would he received with such general satisfaction as that of
the illustrious Duke. (Hear, hear.) He had it more in his power
than any other person to bring the business to a satisfactory termi-
nation, from his connexion with the army, and from his/well-known
attachment to its interests. He knew the difficulties too of under-
taking to act as trustee, to which he could not have been prompted
by any motive of interest. lie knew the coollicting nature of the
Wins—the extravagant demands that were made for this prize-mo.
nay, and that, however the distribution might be made, that still the
expectations of many must be necessarily disappointed. Undet
these circunistimceti, he would not hesitate toasty, that if the Noble
Duke had consulted with him, he would have advised him not to have
undertaken the duties of a trustee ; but the Noble Lord, from his
affection to the interests of the army, was above any calumnious
imputation which might be put upon his conduct, and he yoluma-
rily untie took to pertiorm this act of service to the army. The only
tangible charge, indeed, on which delay or neglect was founded by
