into consideration the proposedmeasure of' the Right Honourable

yard—Mr. Cooper was railed to the Chair.—Mr. John !.archer
addressed the meeting on the ruinous consequences of repealing the
prohibitory laws.—Mr. Ready followed to the same effixt, and
suggested that a committee should be immediately formed, who
should be deputed to wait on Honourable Membent at their own
houses; he was convinced that more good would be effected by
these interviews, than by going to Parliament in the brat instance.
Several other persons addressed the meeting, when the following
were, after considerable discussion, appointed to form a t'ommittee,
viz.—Messrs. John Poynter, John !Wale,* John Ready,
Mennen, William Wallace, and Thomas Renew.—Thanks were 111611 IVA Thlt THIS PAY AT WNDON-BRi

DIED.

There was a pretty gond supply of Wheat this ing ; whet
little that wan fine went off slowly on much the same terms as on
:Monday. For middling and inferior qualities it was difficult to
find any buyers. We had a fair supply of Barley, for which (herr
were but few buyers, and a decline of Is. per quarter must be mated
from :Monday's currency. The arrival of oats was extensive, and
ve►y little program was made in wiles, although rather lower prices
were submitted to than on :Monday. In Beans and Peas very little
doing, and prices on the decline.

1811. iii, lirst desire is to sell olEthe Stock left on hard, which
nn beei eiltevi to him at sn unusually low price,and an he in-
'ends to bripg into the premises a splendid collection of the newest
and best Goods Mut the kingdom, he is determined to offer the
whole on :inch tenon as, cannot fail to astonish every one.
U. Stone is aware that such professions are the common pull; of
the day, vet he has no other means of conveying to the Public his
denrranination to intbutit every part of his Stock the most decided
nugain that has ever been offered i 1 the City of London.
With the Haberdashery and Silk Merrery, as now conducted,
Stone int!nds to blend the Linen Drapery. lie feels confident
that in his views to extend the business of thin far-famed Concern,
and combining in one Stock the various Manufactures of the King-
dom, he will uot fail in securing the former favour attached to the
!louse, care, no exertion shall be wanting in his start to make
every branch of the business deserving of the same highly distin-
oistapi patronage as heretofore.
In the Silk Atercery department he begins with great advantage
over every other House in the kingdom, u his Stock will be com-
pletely nor, and bought free from all duty, a difference of at least
21 per taut. The hest Haberdashery will be supplied to the re-
tell at tic lowest wholesale list prices.
is perj department will comprise every description of Fa-
mily Linens, which O. Stone will be careful shall be of the hest
fabrics, and not surpassed, if equalled, by any establishment what-
soever; an extensive and choice variety of rich worked Muslin
Robes. and fancy M uslins of every description ; Printed Cottons,
rich Printed l'ailibries„ and l'rinted Mull Muslim.; French l'am•
brie sod French Cambric Ilandkerchiefs ; and in Irish Linens he
conti,letitly hopes to make a larger return than any House in
Inoulon.
