THE ADDRESS.
Westport, April 6th, 1838.
vern m
IVY Loan,—On your arrival some short time ago from the Go-
Y Lt
of Jamaica, we did ourselves the honour to express to
ap Lordship our feelings of delight and unbounded gratification
seeing you amongst us after the satisfactory manner you dis-
charged the duties of your exalted office in that Colony. But the
noble
,• determination you announced in
your place in the House of
e_rds on a recent occasion, when you declared that you would
_"'aneipate the slaves on your own estates, on the Ist of August
next, holds forth to the world an example of noble disinterested-
ness for which vou deserve the eternal gratitude of every humane
being, who values either religion or humanity.
Need we say what pride and pleasure we feel at witnessing the
expressionsof admiration conveyed to your Lordship by the Anti-
slavery delegates of England, Ireland, and Scotland, and other
Public bodies, when we consider the strong ties subsisting between
us, and when we consider the long-wished for event of a total
Abolition of Negro Slavery, for which every friend of the human
race panted, at length happily accomplished by your Lordship,
conceiving as we do, that it is impossible for the odious system to
continue after the declaration of your Lordship.
jTo convince you how strongly and sincerely we feel on this sub-
ect, and in order to perpetuate our sentiments, may we beg you
will accept a piece of Plate, as a lasting monument of your exertions
In the cause of humanity, and as a record of our feelings, to show
Your descendants, when history shall transmit the important
events in accomplishing which you have se largely contributed, how
warmly and sincerely your friends in this neighbourhood valued
Your noble exertions.
In conclusion, we pray the Almighty Father of the whole human
race to pour his choicest blessings upon you, and preserve many
Years a life so valuable, and when about to quit this earthly habita-
tion, that you may experience the same mercy which you have been
50 anxious to impart to your oppressed fellow creatures, is the fer-
vent prayer of your sincere friends and humble servants.
- G. CLENDINING—Chairman.

My Dear Sir,—l have this moment had the pleasure of receiving
your letter of the 'it'll, enclosing to me a copy of resolutions passed
at a general meeting of the inhabitants of Westport and its neigh-
bourhood, and an address which it was one of their resolutions that
I should receive at your hands.
May I request that you will be kind enough to communicate to
illy dear friends, who so far honoured me, the enclosed reply, and
to believe me when I say, that my pleasure is much enhanced by
seeing the man whom my Father selected as one of the Guardians

The practicability of running steam-carriages upon common
roads with a degree of rapidity far beyond the utmost speed of
horses in draught, and at from one half to a third less cost, has
long since been proved by the Report of a Committee of the House
of Commons, after a most minute and searching inquiry. This
opinion has since been confirmed by, some of our most talented
engineers, amongst whose names will be found that of the late Mr.
Telford. Those who are acquainted with the history of the steam-
engine, from its earliest. infancy down to the period when Messrs.
Bolton and Watt effected their invaluable improvements, those
who in later times have seen the obstacles which impeded steam
navigation, and are acquainted with the degree of perfection to
which it has now been brought, will not readily fall into the error
of concluding that because the attempts to run steam-carriages
upon common roads have hitherto been unsuccessful, that that
object is unattainable.
Mechanical men have long agreed that the paramount means of
ensuring success was the constructing a boiler having such a dispo-
sition of its parts as would rapidly produce the most dense steam,
combined with such strength as permanently to resist the utmost
internal pressure,' and all possible external collision, whilst the ma-
chinery should be so arranged as that the concussions and agita-
tions of the common roads should not operate upon it prejudicially.
Sir James C. Anderson, Bart., after man, years of study and
persevering application, has succeeded in perfecting a boiler pos-
sessing these invaluable properties ; and has also devised a simple
and effective arrangement of the machinery for applying its power
to the propulsion of carriages.
Feeling confident that the difficulties which prevented the adop-
tion of this most important improvement in our internal communi-
cation have at length been overcome, the Directors of the Steam
Carriage Company have made arrangements by which the Com-
pany will possess the exclusive right of using Sir James C. Ander-
son's Patent Steam Carriage upon common roads, as also the boiler
for all locomotive purposes in England.
A carriage is nearly completed, and will be speedily submitted to
such proof as the Directors may require, and will be kept in repair
for twelve months free of expense to the Company.
The boilers of all the carriages will be maintained in good repair
for the first twelve months at the sole cost of the Patentees, who
seek no payment or remuneration until the first carriage shall have
been proved to the full satisfaction of the Directors. The Patentees
will keep in repair, at a certain mileage, any number of carriages
which may be required by the Company ; thus determining the
amount of expenditure, and reducing the profits to a certainty.
No capital need be sunk beyond the cost of each steam-drag and
carriage, as they may be required ; and as each gets into work, an
immediate return will be made upon the capital invested.
As a profitable investment for capital there is not the slightest
doubt that this undertaking offers much greater advantages than any
that has been brought before the public for many years.
So far as regards the probability of this mode of conveyance ob-
taining the patronage of the public, it should be observed that the
following causes will operate to bring it into use.
The preference now given to canals and waggons for the trans-
port of goods shows the appreciation by the commercial world of
cheapness in comparison with speed, but by this mode of conveyance
cheapness and speed will be united.
Passengers or goods destined for the towns established on the
turnpike roads will derive considerable advantage from the steam-
carriages passing through them, thereby, so far as regards those
roads which come in competition with lines of railways, compen-
sating for the difference of speed by avoiding the inconvenience of
getting from the stations on the railways to the places of destination.
It is very probable that railways will be limited to a certain num-
ber of grand lines, the vast cost of laying down railroads rendering
a profitable return doubtful except in eases where the traffic is very
great.
Supposing that railroads should be laid down upon all the main
hoes, and found to answer the object intended, the steam-carriages
will be invaluable adjuncts, as supplying the place of railroads from
tile places lying between the railways, thus forming tributary streams
of passengers and goods to the grand lines.
Passengers and goods can be conveyed by these carriages at double
the average speed of horses, and at half the expense, and at the same
time realise a very large profit to the Company.
Decrease of expense will, therefore, it may be fairly presumed,
not only materially increase traffic, but ensure the patronage of the
Public.

Local Directors will be appointed at the following places as soon
as the allotment of Shares shall have been made, and of which clue
notice will be given :—Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, York,
Bristol, Gloucester, Oxford, Exeter, and in such other places as
may hereafter be deemed eligible.
The Capital of the Company to be 500,0001. in Shares of 101.
each. Nu party to hold less than five Shares. Deposit, I/. on every
five Shares.

Further information may be obtained of the Secretary, at the
Temporary Office of the Company, IS, Moorgate-street, London ;
to whom applications for Shares must be addressed before the Ist
of May next, if by letter, post paid.

which this is conducted precludes the possibility of competition for
cheapness, quality, and durability, as not any house in London can
manufacture at these prices. The Society wishes it to be thorougly
understood, that they do not receive hawked or other goods for sale,
like the bazaars and haberdashers - but they make every article
themselves, which enable them confidently to warrant their goods
of the very best materials. If any fault appear it will be made
good, free of all charge for twelve months. A trial is earnestly
solicited of those about to furnish, as the only criterion by which
the merits and decided advantages of purchasing at this establish-
ment can be fairly estimated. This Society being founded for the
support of industrious mechanics, the funds of which provide for
its members in old age and burial, they therefore sincerely hope that
their humble endeavours will meet with public patronage.

In preparing to offer to the English reader an entirely new ver-
sion of the Tales of a Thousand and One Nights, it is one of the
chief objects of the translator to render these enchanting fictions as in-
teresting to persons of mature age and education as they have hitherto
been to the young,
attractions which have chiefly recommended them to the latter.
and to do this without divesting them of those
The version which has so long amused ns, not made immediately
from the original Arabic, but through the medium of a French
translation, is extremely loose, and abounds with such errors as
greatly detract from the most valuable quality of the work, which
is that of presenting a series of most faithful and minutely-detailed
pictures of the manners and customs of the Arabs. The Author of
" The Manners and Customs of the Modern Egyptians" is engaged
in translating the whole of the original work, with the exception of
such portions as he deems uninteresting, or on any account objection-
able. The original work being designed solely for the entertain-
ment of Arabs, copious notes will be added to the translation, to
render it more intelligible and agreeable to the English reader.
The engravings which will be so numerously interspersed in the
translation will considerably assist to explain both the text and the
notes ; and to ensure their accura,y, to the utmost of his ability,
with respect to costume, architecture, and scenery, the translator
%% ill supply the artist with dresses and other requisite materials, and
will be allowed to suggest any corrections that he may find neces-
sary, without fettering his imagination, which, judging from the
progress already made in the designs, promises to make the pictorial
embellishments of the work fully correspond with the rich variety
of its descriptions.
