THE MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, MAv 9. •
There were moderate arrivals of all sorts of Corn last week.
—The fresh supply of Wheat this morning from Essex, Kent,
and Suffolk, is much larger, and better in quality, than for
some weeks past. Of Barley, Beans, Pease, and Oats, -the
arrivals are not considerable. The weather being remarkably fa-
vourable, and t he first portion of the bonded Wheat being expected
in the Market in a few days, occasion our millers to decline pur-
clia;ingi and the trade for Wheat has been so extremely dull
as to reduce the prices from 3s. to ss. per quarter since this day
ae'ntmight. Barley is scarce and unaltered in price. Beans do
not find'. buyers so freely as of late, and are rather cheaper.
Pease Of both kinds are also rather lower. Oats meet a heavy
Sale, at ddecline of ls. per quarter from the terms of this day
se'nnight. The FlOur trade is extremely dull.

SPAIN.

We have reason to think that the following
representation of the wretched state of affairs in
Andalusia, may with great propriety be applied
to every other Province in Spain :
A respectable inhabitant of Seville, in a letter
dated the 6th inst., writes as follows:

" Misery is at its height in our province ; every step we take
in our streets presents us with country people begging alms.
If we go out of the town we are assailed by bands, who plunder
us. If the drought continues God knows what will become of
us : the cattle are already in want of pasture, and they are
obliged to he sent 12 or 15 leagues from here to obtain it.
Whether this drought, however, continues or not, a single
piastre of the contributions must not be counted upon as likely
to enter the Treasury; the inhabitants neither can nor will pay
them. The Administration is so in want of funds that they
have been obliged to curtail the garrison of half their destined
pay, to buy their food, without giving them either bounties
or sobra."

The pay of a soldier in Spain amounts to 36 centimes (30.)
per diem. Two-thirds of this are destined to his daily food,
the remainder, called cobras, is to buy his clothing, &c. This
fund has never till now been encroached upon; the soldier em.
ploys it to buy the first necessaries of life, as also tobacco for
smoking. The employes on duty have not been paid since the
month of September.

THE KING'S COURT.

Yesterday at one o'clock his MAJESTY arrived
at his Palace in Pall-mall in his travelling carriage and four,
from his Lodge in Windsor Great Park. The King was re-
ceived on his arrival by his Equerry and other attendants in
waiting. In a short time after his Majesty received a visit from
his Royal Brother, the Duke of York. The King afterwards
proceeded to hold a Court, which was attended by the Lord
Chancellor, the Lord President of the Council, the Lord Privy
Seal, the three Secretaries of State for the Home, Foreign, and
Colonial Departments, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the
Master-General of the Ordnance, the Chancellor of the Duchy
of Lancaster, the President of the Board of Trade, the Lord
Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench, the Master of the
Horse, the Groom of the Stole, the Treasurer of the House-
hold, the Duke of Northumberland, the Recorder of London,
&c. Mr. Vaughan was presented to the King by Mr. Secre-
tary Canning, on his return from Switzerland, and on his be-
ing appointed his Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary to the United States of America—The Duke
of Northumberland was presented to his Majesty by Mr. Se-
cretary Canning upon his being appointed to a special mission
to the King of France at his coronation.—Mr. George Ricketts
was presented upon his being appointed a Judge in India,
when he received the honour of Knighthood.—His Majesty
held a Privy Council, at which the Duke of Northumberland
and Mr. Vaughan were introduced, and sworn in Members,
when they took their seats at the Honourable Board according-
ly. Some alterations were made in the pricked lists of Sheriff's.
The Recorder of London was admitted into the presence of the
King in Council, and made his report of the thirty convicts capi.•
tally convicted in the Feb. Sessions at the Justice Hall in the Old
Bailey. His Majesty gave audiences to the Earl of Harrowby,
the Duke of Wellington, the Duke of Dorset, the Duke of
Northumberland, Mr. Vaughan, Mr. Secretary Canning, end
Mr. Secretary Peel.—The Earl of De la Warr and Sir Hil-
grove Turner were the Lord and Groom in Waiting. The

Majesty left town on his return to his Lodge in Windsor Park.

TERMINATION OF LOTTERIES.

BISH, of the Old State Lottery Offices, 4,
CORNHILL, and 9, cHARING-CROSS, having
published at length the Scheme of the Present Lottery, now
merely directs the attention of his best Friends, the Public,
to the number and amount of the Prizes it contains, and its
general arrangement.

There are Four Capitals of A:20,000 Prizes, and Thirty
others of .C2OOO, £lOOO, £5OO, &c. A:100,000 is apportioned
for smaller Prizes, and there are no Blanks, as every Num-
ber is sure of £5 at least. The whole sum of £200,000 will
he distributed in tine Day, 12th of APRIL.
*** BISH deems it requisite to apprize his Friends, that
this is one of the few opportunities that can be offered them,
whereby a large fortune may be gained by a trifling risk.—
The Chancellor of the Exchequer has disposed of the Last of
the Tickets granted by Parliament, and has officially an-
nounced in the House of Commons, that he will not propose
another Lottery Bill, so that in a few Months this mode of
adventure will cease altogether.

A variety of .Numbers are on Sale at BISH'S Offices, 4,
and .9, Charing-Cross, where, in the short space
of Three Months, viz. in October, Noretober, and OCCelll-
-
h'er last, he shared and sold

THE TRUE "DR. STEERS'S OPODELDOC,"

FROM its penetrating quality, is found de-
cidedly superior to any other external application in
promoting the natural elucidation when in a torpid s ate,
arising, from cold, or other causes, and in giving vigour to
the parts affected. When promptly and copiously ruldred
it cures Rheumatism, Chilblains, the Cramp, Sprains and.
Bruises. &c. If dissolved, and applied on the first appear-
ance of Chilblains, it prevents their breaking. The general
use of this valuable Remedy has induced many persons to
sell spurious imitations of it, which are without effect. That
only is genuine which has the name "F. Newberry" en-
graved in the Government stamp on each bottle. Price 2s. 9d.
Sold by F. Newberry and Sons, at the Orijnal Warehouse
for Dr. James's Powder, St. Pant's Church-yard ; but as
many persons mistake the House, observe that it is the Third
from Cheapside, the Number 45. Sold also by J. Sanger,
150, Oxford-street ; Hawkins, Bond-street ; Harris, Lud-
gate-street; and Stradiing, Royal Exchange.

EAST-INDIA HOUSE.

A Quarterly General Court of the East India Company was
tle 14 yesterday at their House in Leadenhall-street.
W. ASTELL, Esq. M.P. took the Chair at twelve o'clock.
The SECRETARY read the minutes of the proceedings of
die last Court, and of the result of the ballot on the Hydrabad
Papers.

SUPERANNUATION LISTS.
The CHAIRMAN then begged to call the attention of the
-Court to a List of Superannuauons of the-Servants of the Corn-
aaay, made by the Court Of Directors since the last Quarterly
4; cnual Court of Proprietors.
The SECRETARY was desired to read the list: when he read
the head of it as a matter of form only.
HUSIX begged that before the Chairman proceeded with
titer business, the pope! might be read entirely, so as to show
the names and the services of the persons to whom the super-
agniated allowances had been granted.
She Curan accordingly read the paper, which contained only
it.e mime of one individual, whose salary having been 1101. a-
-ear, it had been resolved by the Court of Directors, that
at consideration of his long services, he should be placed on
=he Superannuated List, and allowed two-thirds of his salary,
Wing 73/.
Mr. TaAwT said, it had often occurred w him, that such
papers as these ought to be laid on the table in the adjoining
room for the perusal of the Proprietors previously to their being
called upon to vote upon them.
The CHAIRMAN observed, that this course had never been
considered necessary, and theref;re had never been adopted.
Bea the Court was required by Act of Parliament to lay these
- papers before the House of Commons; and according to a bye-
law of the Court, all papers whatever that were to be laid be-
fore Parliament were first of all to be laid before the Court of
Proprietors : it was therefore necessary that this Court should
have the present list submitted to it.
Mr. H emE wished to be informed whether any regulation
exi.,ted at the present moment to prevent aged persons from en-
tering the service of the Company ; for it appeared to him that
If there were no such regulation, the consequence would often
be that many persons would enter their service at a time of life
that in a very few years they would become superanuated.
The CHarattaw said that there was always in these cases at-
tention paid to the age of the individual, although there might
he no particular regulation upon the subject. But the general
rule was, not to take persons into the service of the Company
beyond the age of thirty-five. The individual who had been
placed on the superannuation list had served the Company
faithfully 17 years, and he thought was an object deserving of
the allowance proposed to be made to him.
The Resolution was then agreed to.
APPOINTMENT OF FIRST ASSISTANT TO THE SUR.
London, England, 1825-03-24

VEYOR OF BUILDINGS.

• - -
The CHAIRMAN said, he had further to inform them that
-this Court had been made Special for the purpose of laying
before the Proprietors for their approbation, in conformity to
the I7th section of the 6th chapter of the bye-laws, a resolution
of the Court of Directors of the 26th January last, for the ap-
pointment of a person in the capacity of First Assistant in the
office of the Surveyor of Buildings, at a salary of 3501. per
annum, but his successor to be at a salary of 3001. per annum.
All that he should.do, therefore, was to move—That the Court
do approve of this Resolution of the Court of Directors, and of
the appointment made by them.
Jr. HUME was desirous of being informed who was the
Surveyor of Buildings. It was quite evident that the individual
who filled that appointment should be a person qualified by
education, experience, and talent, to perform the duties of it.
He, therefore, wished to know whether the person who had
been named by the Court of Directors had been regularly bred
to the business of a surveyor, so as to enable him to act effi-
ciently in his situation ?
The CHAIRMAN said, the Hon. Member had wholly mis-
taken the object of the motion ; he was confounding the two
offices of Surveyor and of First Assistant together. The person
now appointed was the First Assistant to the Surveyor, and not
the Surveyor himself. The Surveyor was a gentleman whose
merits were well known to every body. He had built our
College at Haileybury, which was considered by all who had
seen it ILi the finest monument of his talent and genius. The
gentleman whose appointment was now under consideration was
formerly the Clerk of the Works, and in that capacity had
shown himself a most useful and meritorious servant. Upon
the retirement of Mr. Cockerell the Court of Directors thought
it-fortunate to be able to appoint him on the ground of merit
only. lie had no increase of emolument by the exchange, but
owsty a few more privileges, which by his past services he was
considered eminently entitled to.
Mr. He ME did not object to the amount of salary ; he only
wished to know whether this person was capable of affording
that assistance which the Report of the Court of Directors said
would be required of him.
The CHAIRMAN said, the Court of Directors were quite sa-
tisfied of his ability to perform the duties of his situation.
A PuormETOR asked, what was the salary of the Surveyor,
and what were his duties, that it should be necessary for him to
tiave a first and second assistant ?
The CHAIRMAN said, the present salary of the Surveyor was
5001. a-year. The increase of his duties was very considerable.
Ilan. Members need only look over the very great extent of the
hoilding they were now in to satisfy themselves that the ap-
pointment of Assistant Surveyor was absolutely necessary.
Criarnatasr then put the motion, that the Court do ap-
prove of the appointment, which was agreed to.

MEETING AT LLOYD'S.

At twelve o'clock yesterday a meeting of the Subscribers tv
Lloyd's took place for the following purposes :-
1. To receive the yearly reports of the finances.
2. For the approval of alterations in progress.
3. To vote 201. to the widows and children of boatmen
drowned near Carnarvon.
4. To vote 101. to the seamen of the coast guard, fur saving
the crew of a merchantman wrecked. •
5. To vote 1001. to Capt. Cook, of the Cambria, for saving
the crew and passengers of the Kent Indiaman.
6. To vote 201. to Capt. Bibby. of the Caroline, far saving'
14 soldiers from the wreck of the Kent.
The meeting was not numerous ; the Report was approved of,
and all the sums mentioned voted. It seemed to be a general
feeling that the vote to Capt. Cook was too small, and an amend-
ment to iucrehse it to 2001. was proposed but negatived, owing
to the state of the finances of the establishment.

soldiers in preferring claims to indemnification for losses, the
investigation of such claims is attended with difficulty and in.
convenience ; and whereas therefore, we think it expedient to
limit the period within which such applications shall in future
be made ; our will and pleasure is, that from and after the 24th
of August, 1825, no claim of an Officer or soldier to compen-
sation for any loss of baggage or necessaries shall be entertain-
ed, if it be not preferred within twelve months after the time
when the loss was sustained, unless such Officer or Soldier shall
shew that it was not in his power to have preferred his claim
within that period.—Given, &c. Sept. 3, 1825..

rMORNING CIIIIONICLE.j

The Address from the expatriated Irishmen
of New York to the People of Ireland, has pro-
duced, as we anticipated, a very strong sensation
in that country. The Dublin Morning Register
observes, "We do not recollect an instance
where the publication of a single document had
ever produced so strong an effect on the public
mind of this country, as the Address from
New York has created." The contrast, indeed,
between the circumstances in which these exiles
are now placed, and those of their country-
men, is too forcibly drawn not to have keenly
agitated so exciteable a people as the Irish.- To
one part of the Address we deVoted more attention
than to the rest, namely, that in which Dr. Mac-
nevin endeavours to demonstrate the advantage
the Irish would derive from a Legislature sitting
in Dublin for the discussion of local matters, sub-
ject to the controul of the great Imperial Legis-
lature. The feeling against the Union has always
been so strong in Ireland, that. it hardly required
the example of the advantages derived by the
United States from a general and from local le-
gislations to make this advice palateable. We can
hardly wonder at the unpopularity of the Union
in Ireland, when we consider that the im-
provement of that country seems to have
been arrested by that measure ; and we are sure,
if the people of England knew their own
interest, they would wi,h to free Parliament
from details which, in Ireland, and all the Colo-
nies, couid be more advantageously discussed in
local legislatures. In those of our Colonies in
which there are no Houses of Assembly, we have
a despotism approaching to oriental; and
though Ireland, from proximity, is not a field in
which the same degree of arbitrary power can be
exercised, yet many abuses would he checked in
a local legislature, the knowledge of which, in
spite of all our Commissions, never reaches us.

His Honour the MASTEa of the Ror.r.s was
this morning occupied in the hearing of the
...cause Jefferies versus Smith. No less than
eight Counsel were engaged in it. The
question at issue is one of very considerable inte-
rest as it affects partnership concerns. His Hon-

LISBON, AUG. 29.
The Revolutionary spirit has not yet lost its
hopes of disturbing the tranquillity of the Penin-
sula. The traitor Bessieces, the instrument of
the incorrigible enemies of Religion, Kings, and
People, thought to take advantage of the ex-
hausted state in which Spain is reduced by so
many misfortunes to raise ti.e standard of rebel-
lion, after having been one of those who com-
batted it. But his ambition was not satisfied
with the rewards conferred on him by the King
for his past service, and he aspired by the
blackest of crimes to the execrated glory of being
the leader of the rebellion. His mad project was
born and died on the same day, and he was
wandering about deserted by those he had re-
duced, and on the point of falling into the hands
ofjustice. The almost simultaneous appreheo,
gion of a lodge of Freemasons in Uratiada proves
the incorrigible tendency of the sect to oppose'
the laws of the State which prohibit such Sow
cieties.

WI YMOUTII, SEPT. 12.

On Thursday last the Fourteenth Annivergary
of the Weymouth- Branch Bible Society was held
at the -Assembly Room,- Royal Hotel; The
Chair was taken by ROBERT WILLIAMS, Esii.
M.P. Vice-President. It appeared from the
Report that 100 Bibles and 100 Testaments had
been distributed among the poor sufferers from
the late calamitous storm in the island of Port-
land ; these were a free grant from the Parent
Institution. • Some• pleasing statements were given
relative to the Ladies' Bible Association, which
has been re-established during the last year.
Sixteen Ladies have been actively engaged in
supplying the want of Bibles among the poor in
these towns, and the adjacent 'villages of Wyke,
Chickerell, Rodipole, Preston, and Sutton. It
appears that they have sold 135 -Bibles and 39
Testaments to the poor at reduced prices, col-
lecting their weekly pence,- and making up the
deficiency by free contributions.. The num-
ber of copies of the Scriptures. distributed by
this "Branch Society during the year was 487,
nearly double the number dispos'ed of at any
former period, and making a total" of 3,390
copies of the Scriptures since the' fthrnation of
the Society ; 1301. was voted to tlieTtrunty Auxi-
liary
.Society. The Rev. Jo p 0 AnottEs
tended from the Parent Society., and addressed
the Meeting at Considerable length, in which he
combated with peculiar ability .the argUMents
which had been brought forward against the. So-
ciety. He particularly.alluded .to the distin-
gukhed names whickwere enrolled, in it, and in
mentioning those of the Archbishop of CA NTt it-
BuRY, the. Earl of LivErrpoor.., and the Earl of.
HArtßownt, the steady supporters of . the Insti-
tution, he thought that,a sufficient answer was
given to all the clamor]?" which had been raised
:rainst it by. the simple fact of these eminent per-
sons being members of it.
On Saturday the corner stone of the Girls'
National School ROOM, (bearing a suitable, in-
scription), was laid with appropriate ceremony.
At eleven o'clock upwards of 600 boys and girls,
accompanied by the Rev. Dr.
_DUPRE, Rev.
WILLOUGHBY BRASSEY, gsev. Mr. HoPKINs, the
Churchwardens, and the Gentlemen of the Coma
rnittee, went in procession to Melcome Regis
.Church, where an'excellent Sermon was preached
by the Reverend W. BRASSEY, the officiating
Minister. After Divine Service, the whole, pre-
ceded by the town band, repairing to the spot,
where the ceremony of placing the stone was per-
formed in Masonic order by MASTERTON ORE,
Esq. M.P. After which he addressed the nu-
merous Assemblage in nearly the following

PO E TR Y.

The following EPITAPH, written by the late General FIT z-
rATnicx, on himself, was sent about three weeks before
his decease to his pariicular friend, the present Earl of

COVENTRY :-

Whose turn comes next ? This monitory stone
Replies, vain passenger, perhaps thine own :
If idly curious, thou wilt seek to know
Whose ashes mingle with the dust below, •
Suffice to tell thee, that his destin'd span,
On earth he dwelt, and like thyself, was man i
Nor distant far th' inevitable day
When thou, sad mortal, shalt like him be clay..
Through life he pass'd uneniulous of fame,
Nor wish'd beyond it to preserve his name,
Content, so friendship o'er his humble bier
Dropt but the heartfelt tribute or a tear,
Though, countless ages should unumber'd glide,
Nor learn that ever he had lived or died.

[NEW TIMES.I

The French Papers are full of remarks upon
the Polley of England, the true explanation of
which, however, they are unable to give, from
that sort of mental obliquity w hich is common
to them all. French Politicians, generally speak-
ing, despise a straight forward course ; and as
they judge of others by themselves, they cannot
be brought to believe, what is the simple truth,
that England has followed for the last three-and-
thirty years one uniform system of Policy.—
CircumStances have varied, and, therefore, a
variation was necessary in our measures,
in order to preserve a unity of principle.—
While Buonaparte was threatening to annihilate
the balance of power, it became wise in us to
connect ourselves closely with the Continental
Sovereigns : when the Continental Sovereigns
united for the maintenance of a principle to
which we could not consistently subscribe, our
union with them naturally became less intimate.
Hence arises the common belief, that jealousies
and even animosities prevail between his Majes-
ty's Government and certain Foreign Courts,
which are even described as meditating a coali-
tion against England. All this is greatly ex-
aggerated : and a French Opposition Paper
makes one reflection which is perfectly conclu-
sive on this point. Coalitions can only be held
together for any length of time by money: there
must be a subsidiary power to bring the poorer
States into the field. The wealth of Britain ena.
bled her to sustain that part (luring the late wars ;
but if a Continental Confederacy against her
could be supposed practicable i►► other respects,
where is the money to come from ? " France
alone," says the French writer, " could enjoy
the honour of furnishing subsidies ;" but that is
one of the last honours which she would be in-
clined to attain. The necessary conclusion to be
drawn from all these circumstances is, that what-
ever tone certain Foreign Cabinets may adopt in
their negotiations, there is not the slightest► dan-
ger of a disturbance of the general peace.

[MORNING HERALD.]

A project is said to be on foot for establishing
a new University, somewhere near York, and
that Earl Fitzw•illiam has consented to contribute
a large sum towards it. The crowded state of
both Oxford and Cambridge would seem well
to justify such a measure, which, if it be ac-
complished upon a wise and permanent found-
ation, may be productive of much good, espe-
cially in keeping at home a number of our
gentlemen, who are now sent to foreign semi-
naries for their education. The spread of know-
ledge is at this time immense ; and the spring
which intellect is every day making among almost
all ranks of mankind, is such as was not even
contemplated by those who lived only twenty
years ago. This knowledge, however general, is
unfortunately much of it superficial ; and we
are entitled to look to the Universities as
the great depots of solid and useful attain-
ments. That they have at all times sent forth
into the world its brightest ornaments cannot
be denied. It is to be lamented, however, that
these schools of learning have not always
been patterns of wisdom and of virtue ; and
that the system of ethics has not been always
such in practice as to insure to the world all the
benefit which science ought to confer upon con-
duct. Those who have witnessed the loose
habits, not only permitted, but almost sanctioned
at our Universities, as well as their effect
upon that class of graduates who are destined
for the highest earthly pursuit, will understand
what we mean. But still with these and
other imperfections (most of which, we should
imagine, might easily be remedied), we look

upon these places of education with a hallowed
reverence, and would say of each of them, esto
perpetua! Should a new institution of the kind
.be established, the first object should be to
copy • what is good, and to avoid what is de-
fective in our present Colleges. Besides the
laxity of manners, arising principally out of
the scale of expence in which young men are
permitted to indulge, it is impossible, we think,
not perceive that the main objects of education
are by far too confined for the present state of
science. Classical and mathematical attainments
are both, we admit, of paramount importance,
but to hold them out as the only and exclusive
sources of academic distinction to our patrician
youth, at a time when those of a lower grade are
imbibing more general attainments, is a manifest
error, which ought to be avoided in any new
establishment ; and, indeed, will ere long,
if we mistake not, be remedied at Oxford
and Cambridge themselves . That knowledge is
•
power every one must admit ; and to make that
power conducive to the best interests and general
purposes of society should be the main object of
those who have its formation and direction.

self in his possession.
With the view of rendering the abridgment as complete a
SunsTrruzz von THE REPORTS as possible, and avoiding
the inconvenience accruing to purchasers from the publication
of new editions, it is proposed to prepare occasional Supplements.
A list of the works comprised in the body of . the abridgment

ports in the period allotted to this publication are included, and
that many of them are extremely scarce and valuable.
On the part of the Publishers no expence will be spared to
bring out the work in the most regular and expeditious manner,
and they pledge themselves for its final completion. It iscom-
puted that the work will be comprised in Ten Volumes royal
tiro., the first to be published in December, 11124, and theothers
at regular intervals; and they will be regularly supplied by all
Booksellers in the Country as wellas in London.

embarking and debarking troops, especially Cavalry, as
as Nava Stores.

That it will be of immense advantage to the towns of Ports-
mouth, Portsea, and Gosport, inasmuch as it will, during the
time of peace, afford to. its inhabitants the benefits of 'Com-
merce, whilst it will add to the advantages which the local cir-
cumstances of these places command in time of war. The pro-
posed situation is peculiarly adapted for the purpose. It con-
sists of nearly 100 acres ()flow land, within a very
shirt dis-
tance of water, sufficiently deep for first-rate men of war to sail,
and to which access is peculiarly easy. The excavation will be
attended with no difficulty, and the surplus earthy will be a
highly valuable acquisition in strengthening the barriers against
the sea, the whole length or the line from the Bathing-house
Rooms, near Portsmouth, to Lumps Fort, where such an ad-.
dition is peculiarly necessary. The existing roads round the
proposed Docks are as commodious as though they had been
laid out for the purpose, and the surrounding lands afford the
most desirable facilities the necessary erections.
The proposed scite is within a very short distance from the
existing Canal, and, at an expence scarcely worth mentioning,
can actually be connected with it, as well as with the intended
railway, should that measure take effect.

It is 'proposed to fort* a joint Stock Company, under the
name ,of the " PorttmAith •-•Commercial Dock Company,"
with a capital of 100,0001. in shares of 1001. each. Two pounds
deposit to be paid on taking the shares, and the remainder by
payments of. ii .each 4 4ofttl ,not to to called fbr until at least
two month's notice shall have been given from the period of one
payment to another.
the expence of the Dock will depend upon the scale on
Which it may bethought advisable to carry the plan into effect.
In the first instance it may be undertaken at an expence not
exceeding 75,0001., and be increased as the necessities of: the-
case require. The facilities for removing the soil necessary
for the excavation are so great, that it will bedone at a com-
paratively trifling expence, and as it regards the supply of
building materials, the situation is equally desirable.
It can scarcely, therefore, admit a doubt that this undertak-
ing promises fair to be highly beneficial to the subscribers, and
so useful to the community at large that it will deservedly be
ranked amongst the many great National Undertakings for
which this country is so justly celebrated.
For any further particulars apply (if by letter post-paid) to
Mr. Cull, Portsmouth.
