BY HIS MAJESTY'S LETTERS PATENT.

THE SELF-ILLUMINATING NIGHT or DAY
LAMP, producing PERMANENT LIGHT by touching
a string.
This invention combines utility, economy,durability, and safety ;
it is equally adapted to the drawing.room, the library, the
chamber of the invalid, and the office of the man of business,
ai,d is expected to supersede everything of the kind now in use.
When required for tile night. the Lamp may be placed in any
part of the room, and the string attached to the bed, by merely
pulling which, light is produced. In the day it may be used fur
sealing letters, etc. without the siring.
To the army, the navy, the law, and the faculty, the student
at the university and in chambers, to merchant's and bankers. to
public offices and private families, for every bed-room, to Cap-
tains of ships and travellers in general, and for the insides of
carriages, it is particularly recommended ; and to the lovers
of novelty slid the curious in science, it may form an accept.
able present.
If allowed to burn, the Lamp will yield a steady light for
eighteen or twenty hours, without trimming. It is so portable,
that it may be carried in the pocket; an simple, that a child may
use it ; and so cleanly, that it may be packed with the finest
Ibsen immediately after use.
By shutting the box, the works are so nicely fitted, that nothing
tan escape, in whatever positioa it may he placed. As a proof of
his, it has been sent. when fully trimmed, and charged with nil,
acid, and matches, from London to Edinburgh, by the mail-coach,
as a loose parcel, and arrived in perfect security.

TO THE EDITOR OF Tll E BRITISH PRESS.
SIR.—I should have immediattly noticed the report which
appeared in your paper of the proceedings which were states!
to have occurred at a meeting of parties calling themaelve•
Scripliohlers in the above Company, but that many of m 3
friends advised me such • step was uncalled tor, as I hat.
already commenced legal proceedings, for the express purls's,
of punishitig one of the individual,' who had, at u previous meet.
ing, fabricated the same allegations and propagated the same fad e '
bonds.
I had, however. that my silence is be some of my friends mis-
construed, and it is erroneously supposed that I thereby acquiesce
in the libels and slander which have been so often and so wickedly
uttered by Mr. Clark, and which are gross falsehoods and delibe.
rate and mai:Onus inventions.
To remove any impression of this kind. I beg to state that I have
commenced one, and shall also immediately begin other actions
to bring to punishment the individuals, who have either concocted
for circulated the libels of which I et.mplain, and I have adopted
civil actions instead of indictments (which I might have done) In
order to afford the defendants •every opportunity of justifying their
conduct, by pleading in the form which the law admits, and which
they could not do if I proceeded by indictment. Nor is it my in-
tently.' to seek for vindictive damages, nor to lay them high ; but
only to obtain such verdicts as may effectually teach the offenders
not to tritle with private character, nor wantonly, wickedly, and
groood!essly to attack the reputation of others.
.11i14% another reason, also, w 13.3 I yielded to the w;shea of my
ItO did not deem it necessary that I should answer the
t the meeting of alleged Scripholders, which was, that
pen ' ial proceedings, I hold it to be most unconstitutional
as we , ijust. either for defendant or plaintiff' to endeavour to
mta
excite opinion in favour of his case, since to a portion of
such pub!: e at appeal, when the case is tried by a Jury.
Some indield have apprised me that Mr. Clark is will insane,
wu.
and that to imian ty his present conduct must be attributed. Whe-
ther this be so or not, I will no, determine, though it is lamentably
true that Mr. Clark was come time back in the state of mind alluded,

THE COMET.

Extract of a letter from a gentleman who had visited the
Comet since she was drawn up :—She is almost in a skele-
ton state, has been partially raised, and now within twelve
yards of the shore. When I was on board, the boilers were
just hoisting into the lighter alongside of her. They are in
good preservation, and valued at one thousand three hun-
dred pounds, but from the blow they received have in one
part been completely bent. Mr. RoDas' sack and several
hundred pounds he had brought from the Highlands, the
rents of some estates lie had collected, were found, also
knapsacks and dunks, which were sent to the Sheriff at
Greenock ro examine. so as to discover to whom they be-
longed. Two skulls of young children were found in the
cabin, the father of whom, it is said, has brim in a state of
derangement since he heard of his loss. Many bones were
discovered, and put into a coffin, and interred in the
church-yard of this village, where are many others of the
unfortunate passengers. The crash she received must
have been truly dreadful, as her whole stern has been
completely laid open. It is presumed. after the investiga-
tion that has bet n made, no other bodies are in the vessel.
In a couple of days she will he hauled on the beach.
Judging from appearance, she Comet did not strike me as
having been a remarkably stout vessel!, yet, allowance

eitAarr v.OItrEXWOOD.

Mr. AGAR moved that the injunction obtained by the defendant
against the plaintiff to restrain hint front publishing certain copper-
plates anti maps should be dissolved with coma. No notice had ever
been given to the plaintiff of any such injunction. A note had
merely been sent, mentioning that such an injunction bad been ob-
tained, witlicut stating the scams. In Hilt/ an agreement was made
hetweea the p; r ies., by which Air. Greenwood. in consideration of
13,3004 was to defray tha expenses of printing 500 copies of each of
the maws; and Slinrpo was to receive 20 per cent., on the profits for
his trouble in solkitlng subscribers, &c. The remainder of the
profits was to be divided In equal moieties between them. A farther
agreement was afterwards made, by which Mr. Greenwood paid
Alr. Sharpe 2,313/. 10s. for his remaining interest in the plates, and
the plates were to be assigned, by way of security for the payment
of that sum. It became a question afterwards in what manner the
conveyance should be made, as it was asserted that such property
could not be transferred or assigned like a house or land; and Mr.
Sharpe,finding that the core :en hatliprova a profitable one, was desi-
rous of recovering his interest in the plates, and thought ft would be
the best way to obtain an Injunction to restrain the sale of impres-
sions from them. It was part of the agreement that one map of
each county should be &lira., to Alr. Sharpe. which was a proof
that the whole wire not supposed to belong to him. The sum was
to remain for five years in the hands of AI r. Greenwood, at five per
cent. interest, with the above security, and that time was not yet
elts_pstd.
Air. Sryttnien, on the part of the defendant. requested that
time might be allowed them to get a copy of an affidavit.
Alr. AGAR objected, on account of the delays which had already
taken place on the other side.
Tint Vice-Cilawt;mon—TheCourt now dispenses withgiving
notice. It is better that it should stand over till next day of
motions, and that in the mean time the operation; of the injunction
be suspended.

SALE OF GAS SHARES AT THE MART.

Yesterday curiosity tempted a great many persons to attend a
sale of 200 shares In the British Gas Light Company, which have
been gradually dropping in value until they reached 10 discount, at
which rate purchasers cannot be found, although sellers are nume.
rolls. Before the sale commenced, the following opinion of Judge
Bayley was handed to several of those who intended to hid
Mr. Justice Bayley, in addressing the Jury, told them, that it
was desirable that those who took shares in these joint-stock coin.
panics should make some examination into the solvency of the
concern in which they embarked. Tho members of such com-
panies were jointly and severally liable for ths debts of their re.
:meetly° companies ; and those who furnished them with goods
could recover the value of them from any individual member they
thought proper to select. Nor had that individual any right to
complain, since he could recover it again by contribution from hi.
co.partners. Such was the law of the country ; and he considered
it to be a very beneficial law."
Mr. Bu aux xi. said the shares were In ten lota, consisting of
twenty shares each. The British Gas Light Company was ad.
vancing in prosperity, although the shares, like those of many
other Companies, had fallen down to a discount. Amongst the
conditions of sale was one which stated, that no person should ad.
vance less than five shillings per share at each bidding.—(A person
cried out, " 1 wish you may get it," and a laugh.)—The Company
was extending its operations over England, Ireland, and Scotland,
and was likely to do so very extensively, gas having got into very
general use every where. He trusted the Company would soon
declare a handsome dividend.—" What do you say, Gentlemen 1"
said Mr. Burrell. "At what rate shall I put up the first twenty
shares? Consider that 151. has been already paid upon each
share."
A Gentleman from the bottom of the table.—Pray Mr. Burrell,
have you any idea how soon this handsome dividend, as you call
it, will he made 1
Air. BURRE I. L.—Not the least, I must confess; I know, in fact,
nothing more about the concern than that I received the hares to
dispose of, and was told that they were likely to turn out profitably.
Another Gentleman said, lie knew it to be a fact that the British
Gas Light Company, which was met Coned as affording a supply to
England, Scotland, and Ireland, but which laid such peculiar em.
phasis upon the business it did in Whitechapel, had not a single
customer in the High-street there.
A voice—l'll give Ss. a share.
A second voice—l solemnly declare, that I would not take them
if offered for nothing. Who can tell whether there will not be an

immediate call ?
All the shares were sold at 31. per share, but whether they were
purchased by the party who sold them we could not ascertain. It
was observed to the purchaser, as each lot was put up. that he
might get them at a cheaper rate as he advanced, but he paid no
attention to the hint,

DISTRESSES .I. 1" SPITALFIELDS.

It Is already before the public that, on Saturday last, a meeting
was held at the Mansion House, to devise means tor the relief of
the distressed weavers in Spitalfields and its vicinity, and that a j
public subscription was then opened, headed by the King with
munificent donation of 1,000!. A considerable sum of money was
then subscribed, and Mt. Thomas Hale, the respectable silk ma-
nufacturer, was appointed Treasurer, and a Committee, of which
the Right Rev, the Bishop of Chester is Chairman, undertook the
management of the funds. Notices were subsequently very gene.
rally posted in the parishes of Spits'fields, Bethnal-green. St.
Leunard's, Shoreditch, St. John's, Hackney, and Mile-end New-
town, that " weevers in distress might receive relict* o-s the produc-
tion of a ticket signed by their last employers." On Thursday, at
two o'clock, the Committee, with the Bishop of Cliecer in the
chair, commenced their labours at Spite'fields Church. At that
hour every avenue to the church was crowded with applicants for
relief. The front gate of the church-yard was kept closed, and the
applicants being adinitted in small parties, were introduced before
the Committee In the vestry-rootn, and as their respective MACS we e
disposed of passed out et a side dour, an arrangement which
wits calculated to prevent any degree of contusion or disorder.
In the vestry the applicants were received in classes, alphabetically
arranged, by the different members of the Committee, each person
being required to produce a printed Went of a ticket, signed by the
last employer, stating the none, ore, residenez, whether single or
married, the number of children, with their ages and how employed,
how long the applicant has been out of employ or if not wholly out
of employ, how many looms at work. and the name of the em-
ployer tor the last twelve months. Upon the production of this'
ticket, properly signed, Cie party received relief according to cir-
moisteners'. A single man out of employ receiving is. ; a man
and his wife los. ; and if a family Iss. per week ; but it iituinfer-
Ptood that the relief is not to extend to persons receiviug parish re-
lief. The Committee continued sitting frees two until seven
o'clock an Thursday evening, when it was announceihhat yester-
day they would continence at an earlier hour; accordingly, about
twelve o't l lick yesterday the Committee resumed. The Chair was
taken by the Bishop of Chester, who WAS succeeded at two by the
Rev. West Wheldttle, the Rector, and afterwards that gentleman
was relieved by the Rev. T. Gregory. In the course of Thursday
not less than two thousand peetious were relieved by the Committee,
and yesterday the number 'afpeared considerably increased. We
left the Committee at live o'clock still fully occupied.

We regret to lean that the distress of the silk trade has
caused the stnepage of two houses at Alacelesfiehl, that of
Megan. llatkes and Pearson, for a comiderable amodut,
and that of Messrs. Forster and Clay.

FAILURES OF YORT►SHIRE BANKS.

We regret to say that the bank of S. G. Sikes and Co.,
of Huddersfield, yesterday (Wednesday) suspended pay-
ment. Early in the morning Mr. Sikes had the following
notice made public :
Huddersfield, Feb. 1,182 c.

S. G. Eikes„ in consequen:e of the unexampled distress of the
present period, has the painful task to announce that, for a short
time, lie is placed under the necessity of suspending his payments;
but, if favoured with the indulgence of the public, he feels confi-
dent that, ultimately, he shall honourably discharge all the claims
on his establishment.

The distress consequent upon this event, in the town
and neighbourhood of Huddersfield, is described by our
correspondent as most severe, and the apprehensions from
the same cause arc, of course, alarming.
In addition to the above painful announcements we are
sorry to state that Messrs. Lord, Robinson, and Co., of
Albion-street. in this town, yesterday (IVednewlay) stopt
payment. They were extensive woollen-cloth manufac-
turers, and at their mill in Wade-lane employed a great
number of hands.—Leeds Intelligencer.
