WHITING nod BRANSTON, Engravers and
II Printers to his MAJESTY, fir the Prevention of Forger],
respectfully announce the completion of their Establishment, for
the execution of every description of Engraving and Printing, but
particularly for the Engraving aid Priotiug Bank Notes and other
Negotiable Securities, upon the principles promulgated by one of
the Commissioners of Parliamentary Inqtery telative to the Notes
,atbeetilsobeet.kie' Oak soll-seserding so the mods specified hi
the Patents granted to hint by the Crown. No object has been
more anxiously desired, or more zealously sought for, than the
means of preventing the forgery of the wields descriptions 9f paper
currency, and other securities in constant circulation ; and Whiting
and Branston have much gratification in being_ enabled to prove
that they have reached the almost perfect attainment of this long-
sought object--of paramount importance in a commercial country
.--
by their peculiar mode of Engraving, Printing, and Embossing,
which combines the greatest difficulty of imitation, with the most
certain and complete means of instantaneously detecting any at-
4mpt at imposture. This mode of Engraving and Printing has
already been adopted for the security of the Public Revenue, in
various Departments of the Government, particularly by the
Honourable the Commissioners of the Excise and Stamps, and,
being now matured by most important improvements, is offered,
under the Patronage of his Majesty, to all Pubtic and Commercial
Companies, Loan Contractors, Beakers, and others, who require
such form of securities as shall defy imitation. Whiting and
Branston have engaged the first Artists of every branch of their
Establishment, and will execute any description of Engraving on
Steel, Brass, Copper, or Wood, not only of all the patterns already
introduced in this and other countries, but front such designs of
their own as have never yet been produced. Whiting and Bran-
ston great on have pleasurein stating, that they are enabled to under-
take the Orders of the Public at such prices as shall add economy
and deepness to the other advantages derivable from their Esta-
blishment. Their price for Bank Notes, printed in one colour, and
embellished with any of the engine-worked patterns at present pro-
duced, is only 21. 10s. per thousand, the best Bank Note paper
included, and no charge for the Plate ; for the same pattern in
two colours, only 31. per thousand. These charges will be found
to be much less than the prices now paid for the must ordinary
Copper-plate Notes in circitlation, and not half the expense in.
curred by the use of the Steel-plate Notes, though all the patterns
with which those, or any other notes have been embellished, shall
be introduced, if required.
Whiting and Branston solicit an icspection to their Bank No e
and other Sptscimens. confident that the discernment of an en-
lightehed Public will duly apprf.ciate the value of a system which
combines every possible difficulty of workmanship in the execu-
tion of the Plate, the utmost facility which Machinery can
give to the economical Printing of the Notes.
In the department of Plain and Ornamental Typographical
Printing, the greatest accuracy and neatness ate observed ; and
Whiting sod Branatan beg to inform Authors, Booksellers, Pro-
prietors of Newspapers and other Periodical(, that from the power
of their Engines, and the peculiar construction of their Presses,
they are enabled to use extraordinary despatch in the execution of
all works committed to their care.

HAPPINESS, " the gay to-morrow of the mind," is
insured by marriage ; " the strictest tie of perpetual friend-
ship" Is a gilt from Heaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by
which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association
with celestial intelligence."
Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it
becomes an imperatise duty, not only to regulate the passions, but
to cleanse the grasser nature from those impurities which the free-
dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the
neglect of such attention are attributable many of those hapless
Instances, which, while they excite the commiseration of the be-
holder, should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach.
Luxurious habits will effeminize the body--a residence in the
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the
natural dignity into a state of inanition, from which the agonised
sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then,
we address ourselves, offering hope, energy, muscular strength.

EXTRACTS FROM THE OF THE IN.
SP};(; 'FORS DRNERAL ON TILE GENERAL STATE
OF THE GAOLS, &c. OF IRELAND.

COUNTY GAOLS.
Having detailed, in our Report of the last year, the plans
which had been decided upon for completing :additional
works in the several prisons of this class, it only remains
for us to state that those plans have, in the greater number
of instances, been actively pursued ; and several of the
county gaols, which, on our first acquaintance with them,
were reported as wholly inadequate to the classiUation re-
quired bylaw, now afford reasonable accommodation. We
Are fully aware, tliat any addit iptato au ad atetretureanuat
leave the piatrairketive in many points, which can only
be embraced in plans originally founded on true principles
of prison architecture ; in the great majority of the coun-
ties, however, the most material objects are provided for,
and every thing judicious has been done of which the case
was capable.
We are sorry, notwithstanding, to observe, that in some
counties, in which the necessity of additional buildings has
been admitted, various causes have arisen to retard the
operations of the grand juries,—differences of opinion, as
to the expediency of erecting new gaols, or enlarging the
present buildings, on the choice of sites in the same town,
as well as on the comparative claims of different towns
within the county, to become permanently the situation
for the county gaol. Such difficulties have produced the
effect of postponing some essential works ; but we have the
most sanguine hope that, before the expiration of another
year, all differences will be arranged, and every county
will possess a place of confinement adequate to its wants ;
and that substantial provision will be made for giving effect
to the law, which provides so amply for the discipline.
employment and reformation of the unhappy inmates of
our gaols.
The interior management of the county gaols has under-
gone s very decided change for the better, since the period
of our last tour. Many irregular, and even immoral prac-
tices have been corrected in some criminal prisons, in which
such abuses had existed; and have been much diminished
in the debtors' classes, in which they had taken thedeepLst
root ; and the improved character of the officers, the esta-
blishment of schools, labour, &c. have produced beneficial
effects, and afforded us much gratification, as will appear
more fully on reference to the separate heads.
