Mr. Ilawraglit that the adesion orPine-lnerehants
into their association could not be at all der.rable• Wine
did not very well accord with coffee ; besides ai'lsost all the
licensed victuallers were themselves wine-mend:ants, and
if other wine-merchants desired to join an Association
it would no doubt be more in accordance with their i'lelivgs
to join the licensed victuallers Society, than to unite t.hcm-
selves to a coffee and eating-house association.
The resolution was then put and carried unat'imously.
The CHAIRMAN said that be certainly should be ex-
ceedingly happy to hold out the right band of fellaNship to
the eating-house-keepers, and to see them come ie large
numbers to unite themselves with the objects of the pre sent
Charity. He looked upon this union as most. auspicious.
The SECRETARY observed that it might be useful for
him to explain that, after the rules had teen enrolled by
Mr. Tidd Pratt, the types were set up, and about 3,000
impressions of the Rules printed. About 100 of these
had been circulated, and 1,750, in sheets, remained to
ho distributed. Of course no alteration in the title of the
Association would be printed until the copies in hand were
distributed. This explanation was merely intended to
prevent the eating-house-keepers from falling into any
mistake.
The CiratrimaN said lie would take this opportunity of
rolling the attention of the meeting a little more part;eu-
larly than had been done to the very liberal donation
which had been received from Mr. Young, and his very
handsome conduct in subscribing one hundred guineas
annually towards the Association.—(Hear, hear.)
He was perfectly persuaded that not only the Coffee-house
keepers, but that the eating-house keepers, would avail
themselves of this handsome conduct, and show their re-
spect and their gratitude to Mr. Young by using every
effort to forward the interests of his paper.—(Cheers.)
They all had frequent opportunities of sending newspapers
to friends and other persons in the country, and he hoped
they would lose no opportunity of introducing The Sun on
every possible occasion.--(Hear.) The Sun newspaper would
be considered for the future as the organ of their trade.
Any advertisement or any communication .relative to their
Association would appear in the first corner of The San
newspaper, which had been kindly appropriated by Mr.
Young to that purpose.—(Cheers.) Any gentleman
therefore who wished to refer for information respecting the
Association, or its proceedings, would have recourse to the
first corner of The Sun. He had himself happened to
know that this handsome offer an the part of Mr. Young
had been appreciated by a great number of the trade, who
had taken additional copies of The Sun.—(l-lear, hear.)
Many persons -who did not deem it absolutely necessary to
take additional copies when the True Sun was merged into
The Sun, had nevertheless felt it to be their duty and
their pleasure to take additional copies ; and he trusted
that every gentleman ia the room would do all he 'could
towards the support of that paper which was so friendly to
the Association, and which had ever been the advocate of
good government in every part of the state.—(Mubh
cheering.)
Mr. ELICOTT moved that Mr. Parker, of the Nor-
folk Dining Rooms, Strand, eating-house-keeper, be
added to the Committee of the Association, in the room of
Mr. Welsh, resigned. This gentleman had promised to
become an active Member of the Committee provided he
was elected, and he was the first Member of the Eatine--
house keepers who had thus come forward, whicb he (111;.
Elieott) hailed as a most favourable omen.
The motion was then seconded, and was carried una-
nimously.
Mr. H ARE said that emotion had been put into his hands
which he wished had been put into the hands of a more
competent gentleman than himself, because he was not
much accustomed to public speaking. At the same time
the moving of the resolution was a most pleasing duty to
him. When he first heard of the establishment of this
Association, and that it was to be called " The Association
of the London Coffee-house Keepers," he was of opinion
that that class of persons were not numerous enough to
support such an Association, but lie was happy to say that
experience had already taught him he had beau egregiously
mistaken in that opinion.—( Hear, hear, and 'caters.)
The Association had increased in strength and in' sub-
stance far beyond what he could hare expected, and it
was a most pleasing reflection to him and to every
conscientious man that they were now establishing an in-
stitution that would yield the most consolatory and happy
results to future pcstcrity.—( Hear, hear.) Those who
might live for twenty or thirty years yet to come he had
no doubt would find this Association to he one, if not to
the extent of the Licensed Victuallers' Society, yet to an
extent that would be gratifying, not only to every member
of the Association but to every friend of humanity. The
Licensed Victuallers were considerably more numerous
than the Coffee-house and Eating-house keepers, but
where a licensed victualler took in one newspaper a coffee-
house-keeper took in ten.--(Bear, hear.) It would be a
very small average indeed to :say that every Coffee-
house-keeper took six papers per day, It was, therefore
in their power to render essential service to any newspaper
which they those to adopt as their organ. He had great
pleasure in finding that this Association had adopted The
Sun Evening Newspaper as their organ, and he was per-
fectly sure that after the extremely generous, and hand-
some conduct of the Proprietor of that Newspaper, Le
need say nothing to induce those who heard bins to eo

their utmost, rot only in themselves taking in increas d
numbers of The Sun Newspaper, but to use their best
efforts in circulating it in evcryquarter to which their in-
fluence extended,—(Much cheering.) With these obser-
vations he begged to move :

That the thanks of this meeting be given to Murdo Young, Esq.,
on the behalf of the Association, for his liberal Donation of 501., and
for becoming an Annual Subscriber of 100 Guineas, and fur the interest
which he takes in the posperity and the advancement of the interest of
this Association.
Mr. LEGG cordially seconded the resolution.
The CHAIRMAN felt it to be unnecessary to say a word in
in support of the resolution. At the same time he could
not withhold the expression of his most hearty concurrence
in the resolution, because the liberal manner in which Mr.
Young had come forward entitled him to everyinfluence and
every exertion which the trade could make in favour of The
Son. There was no journal more capable of advocating the
interests of the trade than The Sll7l. Every gentleman
who had perused its columns must be perfectly satisfied
of this.—(Cheers.) Its circulation had of late he under-
stood been greatly increased, and he had no doubt that
from the combined determination on the part of the
Society to spew their gratitude by aiding and
extending the circulation still further, Mr. Young would
reap no inconsiderable benefit.—(Great cheering.). He
trusted that every advertisement which the members might
have to insert in any Newspaper, they would insert it in
The Sun.—(Cheers.)
The resolution was then put to the meeting and carried
unanimously.
Mr. HART would take the liberty of expreFsing a hope
that the noble example of Mr. Young would be followed by
many other members of the leading Journals of London.—
(Cheers.) With that view he hoped the gentlemen who
had been so successful with Mr. Young, would visit the
conductors of other Newspapers.
The SECRETARY felt it to be his duty, on this observe,-
time to state, in justice to Mr. Young, that the gentlemen
who called on Mr. Young never solicited his assistance.
Before they had the opportunity of doing so, he offered his
very handsome and liberal support in the manner the So-
ciety had been alretely informed of.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BINMORE moved, and Mr. MARsIIALL seconded, a
vote of thanks to Mr. A'Thekett, Solicitor, Golden-square.
for the very handsome manner in which he had ;elide' ed
his gratuitous services to the Association. A Deputation
of the Association had waited on Mr. A'Beckett for his
legal advice, and he had in the handsomest manner offered
to attend the meetings and render the Society every assist-
ance in his power, free of aq cost. Than Nil.. Alleckat,
who ha been .10 years a practising solicitor, there was not
a more respectable attorney upon the rolls.—(Cheers.)
The resolution was carried unanimously.
TilC CHAIRMAN explained to the meeting' that the nego-
tiation which had been vet foot in reference to a Sunday
newspaper being started as an organ of the Association, to
be called the Weekly Telegraph, was completely at an end.
The proposals made by the gentleman who hail an idea of
conducting that paper avert such as that the Committee
did not feel themselves justified in acceding to.
The thanks of the meeting were ;;ben voted to all the
donors to the Association ; alsn to the Secretary, who had
conducted him3elf so ably, and with such perfect satisfac-
tion to the Associ ition ; and likewise to the Chairman, for

s able conduct in the Chair.
The meeting then adjourned.

Lord Holland had a dinner party, including some
of the Cabinet MiuisterF, on Saturday.

AMERICAN TJtEES.—Scicntitic travellers have re-
ma-ked, that the mountains and rivers of America are upon a
more grand and magnificent scale than those of the old world;
and that her trees and vegetable prodnetious have a corre-
sonding superiority, in Ut^ luxurinuee of growth and medi-
cinal efficary, not found in those of oilier regions. \Vc ,are
indebted to her for some valuable additions to cur toi!eues,
and, among others, the BALM Or Commun.', introduced to us
by Messrs. C. and A. Ot.nainon. This very elegant chemi-
cal preparation, extracted from'a tree, was first produced in
Philadelphia, where its unparalleled success secured it a pa.
tronage of thy' highest respectability, and r.-hen it was brought
to country in 1x123, it sco.i received the stamp of public
approb shim' which cave ,it a still higher degree of celebrity-
Numen,us certificates in the hands of the proprietors prove
that it has the singular and valuable properties of str, ngthen-
ing weak h it and preventing its falling off; of.comnAn,icat-
ing fresh life to its apparently dead and decaying roots ; of at -
resting incipient baldness, and causing hair to grow where it
had wholly disappeared. Many a gentlAzinn whcse.head was
rapilly losing its natural ornament, has by the use of this Balm
recovered Lip lock!, and found them curling in more than
their wonted luxuriance ; and many an elegant woman who
wad dimayed at the diminu ion of her most valuable decora-
tion, has, by applying this aciive restorative, imparted a salu-
tary vigour to her tiesses, which have again waved and wan-
toned in exuberance and beauty.
