TONT STOCK STONE COMPANY, in London,
el for the more general importation of Scotch Stone into the
London and whir English Markets.
The Right lion. Sir JOHN SINCLAIR, of Mater, Bart.
HONORARY PRESIDENT.

Capital, 200.0001. in Shares of SOL each.
It is intended that this Company purchase or take leases of
Quarries, or purchase Stone in Scotland, so as to aflbrd a constant
and adequate supply to consumers here. It is a well-known fact,
that for most of the purposes to which stone ought to be applied,
in consequence, its high prier, builders are compelled to substi-
tute brick. This Company will be enabled to supply stone at a
low rate, and there can be no question that, from the diminution of
price, the consumption, and consequently the demand, will greatly
increase. It is a distinguishing feature of this Company, that what. I
ever money may be expended in the furtherance of its objects, it
gill be expended within Great Britain, and will incidentally me-
liorate the condition of a large portion of the labourillacteses, at
the same time combining the advantage of the Share having
an opportunity of superintending its executive management in
London, and of exercising an efficient control over hs collateral
branches in Scotland. This undertaking is entirely abstracted from
everything approaching to speculation. It is not meant to depre-
ciate any of the contemporary undertakings now afloat; but it is
undeniable that as many of them have reference to distant coun-
tries, the localities of which are but imperfectly known, the benefit
arising from them must be shrouded in doubt and uncertainty. To
the most superficial observer it will be obvious that this Company
is of • very different character, and the more this is investigated the
snore the fact will be developed.
Applications for Shares, post paid, to be made to Mr. Robert
Baxter. Solicitor. Gray's lon, London, or to John Dickie,
W.S , Edinburgh, between this present time and the sth of April,
after which a General Meeting of those to whom Shares may be
apportioned will be called.

FOR COLDS. COUGHS. AST icts, &c.
THE PECTORAL ELIXIR. Experience during a
very long period, has incontestibly proved the superior
efficacy of this Medicine, in all cases of Colds, Coughs, and Asth-
matic affections. By promoting gentle expectoration, it very shortly
relieves the patient of a slight or recent cold, and a few doses are
generally sufficient to remove those which neglect has rendered
more confirmed and obstinate, and which are accompanied with
cough, spitting of blood, and other serious symptoms. its pe-uliar
nalsamic powers tend to heal soreness, and allay the irritation of
:he lungs, in cases of cough ; and in asthmatic affections it assists
aril gives freedom to the breath.
