QOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF CHRIS- •
TIAN KNOWEEDOE.
SECOND ADDRESS of the JOCRNEYM EN BOOK-
BINDERS employed on the Works of the above Establishment,
to the Noblemen, Gentlemen, and Clergy composing the Com-
mittee, and the Subscribers in general :
.• May it plume year lordships and Gentlemen,
" Cimeeiving it highly probable that our Employers, in justifi.
claim, of the measure which they have adopted, may revert to the
alternative of selecting, and laying before you, a Statement of the
highest Wages rectived by their most competent and wwiduous
weekates, we beg leave respectfully to apprise you that such a
Statement cannot enable you to form a just criterion of our earn-
ing% ; as, from the very nature of the work on which we are em.
ploved, we are justified, front the long-established usage of our pro.
fetsion, in charging our week's work every Saturday, if it has
arrived at a certain stage, at the same price as if finished, although
the v.ampletion of it will require a continuation of our labour and
c:.itlicatiou generally until %Vedoesday, and sometimes even until
Frtlay in the fallowing week. These receipts, also, are those of
men winking Item six in the morning till eleven at night, who, if
their labours were limited to the regular !mute of employ met. could
scarcely average, even before the present attempted reduction of
our sages, a sußleient competency to maintain themselves and
ismil•es. We, therefore, respectfully request that your honourable
Society-. previous to fanning your judgment as to the amount of
wage. which can be ranted by journeymen employed in the execu-
tion of your work, will examine the books of our Einployers, and
st•ceentist the average of our weekly earnings fee the last twelve
inor.thtt, which we fecl confident will josh/ you in taking into
considerationthe respectful appeal made to your honourable So.
cier in the Courier and Times of yesterday."

THE HI NO'S BIRTH -DA Y.
f" 11 0-MORROW, the 12th instant, being the natural
1 Ihrth.Day of Our Beloved Sovereign, will be commemorated
by the appearance of the
FIRST SATURDAY MORNING WEEKLY JOURNAL.
Whether the Govemment, by the alteration of the Gazette from
Saturday to Friday, aimed an indirect censure against Sunday
Newspapers, need not now be argued-the late publication of the
Saturday Gazette rendered them unavoidable. But now it is
evident that thousands of conscientious persons can have their
wishes gratified by the appearance at breakfast time, every Stour.
edy 3lrrairtg, of an excellent Family Newspaper. It is entitled
.6 THE LONDON :BERCI. RY,"
Ard, in 17n11). it nic7 well be so named; for by the most extensive
:Aral socurate system oi. arrangement the London Mercury will be
essratzhed into the countr);su :Is to reach 120 miles from the me-
tropolis, about eight o'clock on the same evening; mooortionally
earlier at intermediate places ; and in a dista.;Ce of 400 mike, it will
precede the Royal mail by several hours.
The Proprietor will not praise before-hand his own product ion,or
pronounce it " the best Journal in London," but is willing to abide
the judgment of the public, always just in the long run, and which
no trOnS of hi. shall be wasting to render most propitious.
At present, the London Mercury will be published, at No. 7.

HALL'S DIGESTIVE or DINNER PILLS.—Of
all the complaints to which the human ironic is liable, few
arc more distressing, and none are more common, than a disordered
state of the stomach, arising from weakness or derangement in the
digestive organs, and attended with flatulence, acidity, pains in the
.tinnarli, giddiness, head-ache, and heartburn. To remove these
pamtul iffects where they exist, and to prevent their recurrence, by
giving renewed vigour and a healthy tone to the digestive powers,
1, the express design of the above pills ; and experience has abun-
dintly proved that they are eminently calculated to produce these
important results. By taking them a short time before the hour of
dinner, the process of digestion is greatly assisted, and by the oc-
c-sisnal use of them, the system will be preserved in a sound and
heaithy state.
As preventives of those severe bilious attacks to which aome
persons are liable, these pills are deridedly recommended, and as an
•zffectual, though gentle aperient. they will ever prove a most va-
luable family medicine. They have also beer highly useful to
.persons on long voyages, and experiencing a change of climate;
and as they do not contain any preparation of calomel, no altera-
tion of diet nor confinement to the house Is requisite.
Prepared only be Mr. C. W. Clarke (successor to the late Mr.
R. 11111), at 115: Holborn-hill ; and sold in boxes at 2s. 'dd.,
