TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCK.

Ladles and Gentlemen,
.A Special Court of Proprietors, convened at the
instance of nine Proprietors of your body, was held at the
India House, on Wednesday, the 25th instant, and, on the motion of
the Chairman of the Directors, unnecessarily adjourned to Friday,
the 27th.
On both those days the annexed resolution was supported at great
length, and in a full Court, by the following Proprietors :
Mr. John Sullivan, the mover. 1 Sir Henry Willock.
General Briggs, the seconder. T Sir Robert Campbell.
Sergeant Bain. 1 Lieutenant Colonel Sykes.
Major Moore. I Mr. John Shepherd.
Right Hon. Holt Mackenzie. I Major Oliphant.
Mr. John Morris.
It was opposed by—
Sir A. Gallaway. Mr. Thoby Prinsep.
Sir James Lushington. Mr. Charles Mills.
Mr. Weeding.
When the Court were about to divide upon the question on Friday
the division was arrested, and a ballot called for by Mr. Charles
Mills, which is fixed to take place at the unusual early notice of
three days, on Tuesday next, the Ist of May, when 'it will beiniPos-
bible for Proprietors 'absent from London to give their votes.
We.content ourselves with placing this proceeding before you, in
the belief that you only require to be apprised of it in order to at-
tend in person if possible at the ballot, and take the part which your
sense of honour, justice, and duty shall point out.
We are, Ladies, and Gentlemen,
Your very obedient servants,

Copy of the Resolution to be balloted for on the Ist of May.
" That this- Court is of opinion that the treaty concluded by the
Bombay Government, in 1819, with l'urtaub Singh, Rajah of Sat-
tars, and subsequently renewed with his brother and successor, the
late Appa Sahib, conferred upon and guaranteed to those Princes, the
hereditary Sovereignty in the principality of Uttar's', and this Court,
being further of opinion that the heirs and successors to those
Princes, whether by adoption or in right of blood, are entitled to
the inheritance under the terms and conditions of the said treaty,
this Court considers it to be right and necessary to record its opinion
that no case has been made out to justify the annexation of the said
principality of Sattara to the British territory."

TO the MONTH of MAY.
Shining, smiling, flowery May,
Listen to my humble lay,
Fondly doth my eye discern
Tokens of thy glad return ;
Now are nature's prospects seen,
Decked with newly spreading green :
All is charming, all is gay,
Shining, smiling. flowery May.
Happy month thy welcome reign,
With its ever pleasing train,
Scatters pleasures here and there,
Pleasures which the many share;
Even in the crowded town,
Thousands hail thy blooming crown,
And to thee their honours pay,
Shining, Smiling, flowery May.

While thy trees and flowers assume
New attire on leaf and bloom,
We prepare a change of dress,
Suited to thy loveliness.
Daily now is MOSES' Mart
Filled with things in every part,
Won by MOSES' choice display,
Shini.,g, smiling, flowery May.
I myself have lately been
To this busy trading scene ;
And with pleasure did I scan
Dress designed on such a plan.
Trowsers, Coats, and Waistcoats, too,
Really beautiful to view,
Here were bought for little pay,
Shining, smiling, flowery May.
Hats and Caps and Boots and Shoes,
Such as none could well refuse,
Showed what MOSES' Mart can do,
When thy month appears in view.
May the preparations made,
Add to Messrs. MOSES' trade,
And with this I close my lay,
Shining, smiling, flowery May.
