The object of this Company is to establish Docks for the
express use of Steain-Vessels, with all the accommodation for
Passengers and goods, which that rapidly-increasing class of our
mercantile navy now demands.
, The site of the proposed Docks comprises the River frontage
itetween the Royal Dock-yard and Deptford Creek, where the
clver is deeper than in any other part : hence the largest class
i„
;j: steam-ships may arrive or depart at almost any period of
be tide.
There will be a communication by a Junction Railway to
that of the Greenwich, by which a great saving of time will be
effected to the passenger, as well as freedom from risk of acci-
dents in the Pool, which are so frequent and appalling in their
oxtent and effects. The Junction Railway will also unite the
Croydon, Brighton, and South-Eastern Railways.
The prospectus and plans, with every information, may be
obtained of the Seel etary, at the Office of the Company,

cation for Shares may be made (po t paid) ; also to Messrs.

plied direct from the Brewery, (at Dublin prices), by applying
as above ; or to James Haydon, Sole Consignee, 10, Little
Tower-hill, near the Docks.
Francis-court Brewery, Dublin, June 1839.

A division of the nett profits will take place quinquennially.
Bonuses accrue on all beneficial policies on which three annual
premiums shall have been paid, at the time a division occurs;
and the holders of such Policies have the option either of re-
ceiving their bonuses in a present sum, or of having them ap-
plied in augmentation of their Policies, or in redaction of their
future Premiums.
Assurers on the non-bonus system may contract to pay their
Premiums either in one sum, in a given number of payments,
in annual, half-yearly, or quarterly payments, or in any other
way most suitable to their convenience.
Officers in the Army and Navy, when in active service, Per-
sons afflicted with chronic and other diseases, and such as are
going beyond the limits of Europe, are also Assured at mode-
rate Rates. •
Prospectuses, and all necessary information, may be obtained
at the Office. Proposals can be passed daily.

RAPER'S PATENT WATERPROOF.
Messrs. RAPER and Co. beg to call the attention of
the Trade and the Public to their PATENT WATER-
PROOF PROCESS, as applicable to all sorts of Fabrics ;
and from recent improvements they can with great confidence
recommend it at this season of the year, as being particularly
suitable to the Waterproofing of Cachmeres, Camlets, Merinos,
and every description of Summer Clothing.
Messrs. R. and Co. have much pleasure in expressing their
thanks to the Wholesale and Retail Cloth Houses and the
Public, for the great encouragement they continue to receive.

GREECE.
Capital 120,000/. (3,000,000 francs), in 3,000 Shares of
401. (1,000 francs), payable in three instalments, at intervals
not less than one month. Deposit 3/. per Share.
This Company, whose direction is in Paris, having obtained
from the Greek Government an exclusive privilege for manu-
facturing and refining Sugars out of Beet-root, and refining
exotic Sugars in Greece, with other most important grants
and advantages, have now opened their Subscription List, at
Paris and London, and have appointed for this purpose as their
Agent in London, Mr. G. W. Spettz, 37, Fenchurch-street,
where Prospectuses, Forms of Application for Shares, and
every other information may be obtained, and the Bankers'
(Messrs. Willis, Percival, and Co., 76, Lombard-street)
Receipts will be exchanged for Certificates signed by the
Directors.
It is impossible in the small space of an advertisement to
point out all the advantages and the large profits this under-
taking is likely to yield. As it is, however, well known that
the Levant is now the principal mart for the Sugar Refineries
of Western Europe, it will be granted on all sides, that works
in the centre of consumption must enjoy an incontestible supe-
riority over the former, and become the more profitable, as the
privileges and grants of the Greek Government render every
competition impossible, so much so that this concern will
prove one of, if not the very best investment yet offered to the
public. The most minute 'details are given in the Prospectus,
with accounts showing a profit exceeding 50 per cent. per an-
num at the end of the second year.
All letters to be post paid.

SOCIETY, 71, LEADENHALL- STREET, enrolled agree-
ably to Act of Parliament ; being the Manufacturers in all its
branches.
The system upon which this is conducted precludes the pos-
sibility of competition for cheapness, quality, and durability, as
no house in London can manufacture at their prices. The
Society wishes it to be thoroughly understood that they do not
receive hawked goods for sale, like the baracers and haber-
dashers, but they make every article themselves, which enables
them confidently to warrant their goods of the best materials,
and if any fault appears within twelve months, it will be made
good free of charge. A trial is earnestly solicited of those about
to furnish, as the only criterion by which the merits and de-
cided advantage of purchasing at this establishmen rem be fairly
estimated.
The funds of this Society provide for the members in sick-
ness, old age, and burial ; they therefore sincerely hope that
their humble endeavours will meet with public patronage.
Estimates given, and orders punctually executed ; and lists
of prices may be had, from which the following is an extract •

SOLOMONS Opticians and Aurists to the Royal Family, 39, Albe-

been greatly benefited, is the size of a seven.shilling piece, and when
fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more percep.
tilde than having a piece of wool in its place, by which the faintest
whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defec-

SPECTACLE LENSES : immediately they are placed before weak
and imperfect eyesight, either by day or candle light, every object
becemesclear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with
great distinctness, by the use of which both the sight and hearing
become much improved.
The Messrs. SOLOMONS DISCLAIM all connection with persons
oh the SA ME NAME, and the sale of Amber Spectacles: in doing
so they Elate the HISTORY of AMBER, from the Dictionary of
Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, M.D., F.R.S., &c. &c.
" Amber is an indurated vegetable ju ce, and not produced by the
laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the
mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in
it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to
such an extent as to explode into fragments ; the workmen, too, are
subject to nervous tremours in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they en.
counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics;
Amber grows, with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a
soft nature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles up, and
will burn away with flame."
The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir I)
