4 GRICULTURAL AND COMMERCIAL
LOAN SOCIETY.
No. 3, ADAM-STREET, ADELPHI.
Capital 100,0001. in 10,000 Shares of 10/. each.
Deposit 1/. per Share.
This Society has commenced business. Its object is to make
small Loans, from 10/. to 100/. each. The party borrowing must,
with two sureties, join in a promissory note, which the Society
discounts at a rate not less than Si. per cent. for the year, and the
'Loan is repayable in fifty weeks, by equal instalments. Thus, a
party lent 50/. will be charged 2/. 10s. discount, and must repay
the Loan at the rate of 1/. per week.
This Society has been formed chiefly to save tradesmen from the
ruinous sacrifices they are now obliged to make to obtain money for
temporary and pressing occasions, and to prevent their resorting to
the wretched and delusive system of accommodation bills. A
charge of mileage is made, in order to pay the expense of inquir-
ing into the responsibility of the Borrower and his sureties.
All the transactions of the Society are strictly confidential.
The remaining Shares will be disposed of, upon application to
the Directors of the Company, or to Messrs. Roy, Blunt, Dun-
can and Johnston, 10, Liverpool-street, London, the Solicitors to
the Society ; or upon payment to the London and Westminster
Bank, the Society's Bankers, of 11. per Share, Receipts will be
granted, which can be afterwards exchanged at the Company's
Office for Certificates of Shares.

Won easy.
The Tally-ho Stakes of 5 sous. each, p.p., free for any horse,
&c., lest. each, mile and a distance, with five leaps over four-feet
hurdles, Gentlemen riders, were won by Mr. Salkeld's br. g.
Robin Hood, by Duplicate (owner), beating Mr. Boustead's br.
m. Outcast, Captain Robertson's b. m. Nanette, and Mr. Grant
na. b. g. by Sir Hercules.

SOUTH WALES.
VALUABLE IRON AND STONE COAL MINES.
TO BE LET, by Private Contract, for a term of
years, as may be agreed on, all those valuable MINERALS,
situate and lying under certain lands called Hirwain-issa and Hir-
wain-uchaf, in the parish of Llanon, in the County of Carmarthen,
containing by admeasurement 237 acres, or thereabouts. The
minerals consist of 11 veins of Anthracite or Stone Coal, and Culm,
varying from two feet to six in thickness, and amounting in the
whole to 37 feet or thereabouts. Also, Courses of Mine or Iron
Stone, lying over six of the veins of coal. The same veins of coal
and iron stone have been discovered and worked under properties
contiguous to the above, and partly under these lands; the strata
is exceedingly regular. The Kidwelly and Pembroy Canal is just
completed up to Cwmmawr-bridge, and passes through the proper-
ties, so that peculiar facilities are afforded for exportation. The mi-
nerals were surveyed some years ago by Roger Hopkins, Esq., Re-
sident Director of the Victoria Iron Works, Monmouthshire, who
reported favourably thereon. The rate of wages in the district is
exceedingly low ; Tabour may, therefore, be obtained very cheap.
The lessee will have the option of taking Hirwain-issa Farm, eon.
taming upwards of 121 acres of land, with suitable buildings thereon,
and also a dwelling-house and a smith's forge, &c., attached. The
consumption of anthracite or stone coal, and culm, being now much
greater in demand than formerly, and continually increasing, and it
being also recently adopted in the making of pig iron, for which
the iron mine found under these properties may be used, as the lime
stones are within one mile of this property, an eligible opportunity
is now afforded for the investment of capital, in the opening and
working of these mines, to great advantage.
Also to be Let, by Private Contract, all those valuable Minerals,
situate under other lands contiguous thereto, called Llettymawr,
Llechrodyn, and Close-y-Bedw, containing by admeasurement 153
acres, or thereabouts, having the same veins of coal and iron stone
as have been already mentioned. There is also a good slate quarry
on Llechyrodyn, which has been opened and worked some years ago.
The Llanelly (or Carmarthenhsire) Railroad passes through this
part of the property.
For further particulars application may be made to Thomas
Lloyd, Esq., Bromwydd, near Newcastle Emlyn, Cardiganshire ;
if by letter, post paid.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 23.—Those who have again reck-
oned on the difference of feelings between the King and the
nation with regard to our political affairs will again find
their hopes disappointed. The address of the States
General in answer to the speech from the throne, agreed
to this morning by the Second Chamber, will, we are con-
vinced, afford the most unequivocal proof that the Govern-
ment may expect the most ample support from the people
in case the inconceivable policy of which Holland has so
long reaped the bitter fruits should not undergo a change.
THE HAGUE, OCT. 25.—The First Chamber having
agreed to the address, it was presented to his Majesty to-
day in the usual form by a deputation of both Chambers,
His Majesty was pleased to answer :
" That it was agreeable to him to receive in the address
the renewed assurances of the sincere participation of the
States General in all that concerns his Majesty's royal
house ; that it likewise gives his Majesty very great plea-
sure to receive the assurances that the States General arc
ready to second the efforts made by his Majesty to obtain
a termination of the political difficulties compatible with
the honour and true interests of the people of the Nether-
lands." His Majesty added, " May God give his blessing
to those efforts, and may the existing concord always tend
to promote the prosperity, the happiness, and the safety
of our country."'
