EAST INDIA HOUSE, DEC, 11, 1839.
THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the
EAST INDIA COMPANY do hereby give notice,
That a Proprietor of East India Stock has given notice of
his intention to submit the following motion at the Quarterly
General Court of the said Company appointed to be held at
their House in Leadenhall-street, on Wednesday, the 18th
instant, at Eleven o'Clock in the forenoon, viz.:—
" That adverting to the Despatches of the Court of Di-
rectors of the 20th of February, 1833, the 2:2e1 of February,
1837, and the Bth of August, 1838, it does not appear that the
professed object of the first mentioned Despatch (viz., the
withdrawal of the encouragement afforded by England to the
Idolatrous Worship of India, and the relinquishment of the
Revenue derived therefrom) has yet been accomplished, and,
therefore, that it be recommended to the Court of Directors to
take effectual measures for carrying out their original orders of
the 20th of February, 1833."
The said COURT of DIRECTORS %o likewise give notice,
That another Proprietor postponed until the said Quarterly
General Court, to be held;on Wednesday, the 18th instant, the
motion of which he had previously given notice.
" To take into consideration the case of " Captain Haviside,
a claimant for the compensation awarded to Commanders in the
Maritime Service of the East India Company."
The said COURT of DIRECTORS dolikewise further give
notice,

That another Proprietor has intimated his intention to submit
a motion at the said Quarterly General Court, to be held on
Wednesday, the 18th instant, viz. :
" For an inquiry regardinc, an entry in the Home Accounts
of the East India Company, from the Ist of May, 1838, to the
30th of April, 1839, under the head of Disbursements under
orders of the Secret Committee of the Court of Directors."

Mr. OFFERT rose and said it was ridiculous to talk
of a 4d. rate defraying the expense of a new church, as at
present the parish was burthened with a 2d. rate for the
building of a small portion of the wall around the church!?
yard. Let the church frequenters, if they like, build a
church of gold, but not rob him and his brother Dis-
senters by unnecessary expenses. He concluded by
moving as an amendment, that the report be taken into
consideration on that day twelve months.
Hundreds of hands were held up in favour of the
amendment, and about six or seven (positively not ten;
for adopting the report.
The CHAIRMAN announced that Mr. Offri.'s amend-
ment was carried, and, therefore, the objects of the
meeting were at an end. This announcement, 'was r::-
uived with loud cheering, and the numerous tneetin„,,'
separated.

APPROACHING MARRIAGES IN
HIGH LIFE.

Saturday next is appointed fur the solemnisation of
the marriage of the Dowager Countess Cowper and
Viscount Palmerston.
'e understand the preliminaries of the union of Via..
count Ebrington, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, and I,ady
Dover, sister of Viscount Morpeth, are already arranged.
Lord Dinorben will shortly conduct to the -Hymeneal
altar Miss Smythe, sister of the Priy.eess of Capun.
Although a Morning Contemporary states the marriage
is to take place early in the spring, we have reason
to believe, from the inquiries instituted, that it
will, in all probability, occur before Christmas. Miss
Smythe is with the Prince and Princess of Capua, at
Mivart's
It is circulated in the higher circles that the Earl of
Liverpool is about to form a matrimonial alliance m the daughter of a Noble Lord in the north.
The rumoured contemplated marriage of a receetiv-
widowed Marquis with the only daughter of one of our
Royal Dukes, is without foundation.
We understand a marriage is shortly about to P
place between the young and beautiful Miss Bail,
to the Mare Lioness of Breadalbane, and tl-.e
of
of
rn
Ashburnha.
,
On Monday last, at Walcot Church
near Bath, Julia
Charlotte Mackenzie, eldest daughter of Sir Orford and
Lady Gordon, of Ernbo House , Sutherlandshire was
led to the Hymeneal altar, by'sheßev. Wm. Churchiii,
of Colleton House, Dorset-hire.

TO THE TROUBLED IN SHAVING_

ALL GENTLEMEN plagued with tender
Faces and string Beards, are recommended to use
RIG GE'S long established and justly-celebrated MAGNETIC
TABLET RAZOR STROP, termed the doubled action,
combining as it does (with its late improvements) the proper-
ties of both hone and strop. No oil nor fluid need to be used.
On a good razor, it infallibly produces the most keen and de-
lightfully smooth edge. Its use is simple, its effects perfection.
The regular use of the Tablet Strop ensures a great saving of
time, and complete comfort in the (hitherto painful or unplea-
sant) operation of Shaving. Price 7s. 6d. ; larger and smaller
sizes in proportion. None are genuine, unless signed by the
Proprietors.

MR. PRICE, of the Firm of Price and Co.,
28, Lombard-street (the only surviving partner of the
late Firms of Price and Gosnell, and Patey, Butts, Price, and
Cu. ), cautions merchants, shippers, &e., against the manoeu-
vres of individuals illegally styling themselves " Price and
Gosnell." There persons never were in partnership nor in
any way connected with the above firms, otherwise than as ser-
vants in the employ of Mr. Price's late firm of " Price and
Gosnell."

The great superiority of Price and Co.'s Perfumery has
been so incontrovertibly established by the distinguished pa-
tronage of the Nobility and Gentryin every quarter of the
globe, as to render it unnecessary for Price and Co. to do
mere than enumerate their leading articles.

promote the comfort and happiness of a Lady, either Widow or

with wham that time might be spent to the advantage of both ;
and he sincerely wishes he could divide himself, so as to be
able to attend to all who stand in need of assistance. Any
Lady having- a desire to embrace the present opportunity will '
please to address (post paid) to A. V. W., care of Mr. Francis,

THE TOURNAMENT.

-
The practising for the approaching Tournament is con-
tinued twice a week, Tuesdays and Saturdays, in public.
On the last occasion the scene of action, which is at the
back of the Eyre Arms Tavern, near St. John's Wood bar-
racks, was visited by most of the principal families of the
nobility in town. The knights are indeed so highly con-
nected that, as admission is only gained by an order from
one of them, the company assembled is of the most select
description. The ground chosen is oblong. and of about
four acres in size, along the centre of which is placed a bar-
rier, with a frame for the working of a figure in armour,
which is propelled along the railroad by the strength of
three men in the opposite direction to that which the knight
takes in charging. it. It appears absolutely necessary that
the horse should be perfectly obedient to the rider's will in
order even to apprt ach the figure. None of the horses are
as yet sufficiently trained. There is, however, no want of
esprit on the part of the riders, and their horses are evi-
dently good both for strength and speed.
The trumpet sounds ! Away goes Mr. Charteris at fall
speed I His headlong career is not, however, destined to
be successful. The plume of the figure remains unsoiled,
and this gallant knight is compelled to bite the dust.
With better success Lord Eglintoun, Captain Maynard,
and Lord Cassilis made their debut in turn ; Lord Craven,
in armour inlaid with gold, Lord Glenlyon, and Sir F.
Hopkins followed, generally breaking up the armour of
their steel• clad opponent, which as quickly ',Appeared, as
if by magic, unharmed and ready for the encounter.
The esquires, meanwhile, amuse themselves by tilting at
oranges suspended in the air, or at the 010 game of the ring.
The effect of the tents and raised pla':forms,
filled by the
beauty and fashion of London,
only required sunshine,
which on this occasion was not afr.arded, and a violent rain-
storm dispersed the assembly P!,. an early hour.
We hear that Lady Seytr.our is to be chosen Queen of
the Tournament, and is to have the power of deciding
upon the merits of these representatives of the warriors of
other days.

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 teen 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, frem which the following is an extract:—
Mahogany lounging chairs, covered with leather, with spring
seats, 455. each ; mahogany chairs in horse-hair seating, 13s. 9d.

(FRost THE FRENCH OF BERENnER.)
The wine-cup was bright, and my beautiful maid
Sung the gods of old Grece and her vanished renown:
We compared her to France as we sat in the shade,
When a bird at our feet sank exhaustedly down.
To his wings was a letter attached, which he brought
Over mountain and main, to some soul-cherished spot.
Come, drink of my goblet, poor messenger dove,
And rest from thy flight on the breast of my love.
His wanderings have wearied and wasted his wing;
Ah 1 quickly restore him, and let him depart.
Does lie hear the advice of a merchant ? or bring
To the eyes of gay beauty the voice of the heart?

Of the lonn and the exiled who dies in despair

INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT

Charles Tyrwhitt Jones appeared yesterday to be dis-
charged. He was supported by Mr. Cooke and Mr.Woodroffe.
The insolvent had been a coach proprietor ; latterly he
had driven the Age Brighton coach. The aggregate of
his debts was upwards of 18,000/, but his bona fide debts
were under 5,000 E He had been three times a bankrupt,
and had under each bankruptcy obtained his certificate.
His last bankruptcy was in 1837 ; since that time he had
renewed many debts, by which his present insolvency was
brought on.
It appeared that Sir Belingham Graham had purchased
the furniture of the insolvent under a bill of sale, and had
allowed the insolvent the use of it. Sir B. Graham had
also advanced him 5001., and had become one of his bail in
this Court.

The insolvent was ordered to be discharged forthwith.

At the Court of Aldermen yesterday some con-
versation took place relative to th proposed visit of the
Lord Mayor to Oxford, when it appeared to be the wish
of the majority of the Court that the Lord Mayor should
not go beyond his own jurisdiction on the Thames.
