UNBLEACHED SAIL CLOTH.

la ROWELL and Co. beg to publish for the
-11.JIP information of SHIP OWNERS the following additional
evidence of the advantage of their ANTI MILDEW PROCESS,
as applied to BROWN SCOTCH CANVAS :
London, May 15, 1822.
GENTLEMENT,—Having the Ship Active in the Coal trade
from Shields to London, where lam Master and Owner, eleven
months ago I made a Top-mast Studding Sail of No. 6, White_
haven Canvas; at the same time I made a Top-mast Studding
Sail of No. 6, Brown Scotch Canvas, prepared by yon. The
unprepared Studding Sail is very much injured by mildew,
and the prepared Studding Sail is not the worse, although it
has been more in use as a Foretop-mast Studding Sail. My
Certificate, with the pieces of each Sail, I consider it my duty
to give you ; also this Report for the good of Ship Owners and
others. I am, Gentlemen, your's, respectfully,
To Messrs. Browell and Co. GEORGE BROWN.

To Messrs. 8..0we1l and Co.

Sails of the Active, of South Shields, and they are exactly as

FOR WORMS, FITS, PAINS IN THE STOMACH, &c.
WORMS are the Cause of many Internal
Afflictions, which vary so much in their effects that
they may be mistaken 1,1 the most eminent Physician, and
prove equally fatal to the Constitutions of Adults and Chil-
dren ; though the latter more extensively suffer from their
destructive ravages. Their more usual symptoms are Fits,
Pains in the Stomach, Side, and Head, Loss of Appetite, and
Pale, Languid, and Emaciated, Appearrnce in the Patient.—
The extraordinary efficacy of CHING'S PATENT WORM
LOZENGES in all such Complaints, as well as Obstructions
in the Bowels, and every Disorder where opening or cleansing
Physic is required, is so universally hhown, and has been.puh-
hely acknowledged by so many persons of distinction and
rank in Society, that it is unnecessary here to enlarge on their
peculiar Vic toes.

A General Court of this Society was held on Saturday the
17th at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street. As it
was its last Meeting for this year, the. Gael, for the greater
part in their graceful tartan, gave a numerous attendance; and
certainly it has seldom fallen to our lot to be present at an
assembly where there appeared such well regulated convi-
viality, and so much of the pure spirit of good fellowship.
In the absence of MAC CHAILEIN MHOIR (his Grace
of ARGYLL ), President of the Society, 'Vice-Admiral Frazer,
one of the 'Vice-Presidents, took the Chair, at seven o'clock,
supported by Sir Alexander Grant and Major-General Gordon,
on the right; and on the left, by Major-General Turner and
the Honourable Mr. Lake: We observed among the company
several other Gentlemen of military rank.
There is something peculiarly inviting in Mesa men of the
mountains ; for the Highland Society of London 'is decidedly
and confessedly the go of the present day. It is quite un-
deniable that there has been, for several
,weeks back, among
all Gentlemen possessed of the -nezesstgy qualifications,
something like a general straight forward rush to become
candidates for admission into this. Institution; and seemingly
under the very just impression that no man can give a more
decisive proof of national spirit than by connecting himself
with it by all practicable means. This is good, and exactly
as it should be. The Gael will incorporate, wherever they
are; and, shoulder to shoulder; -they will ourish, in spite
of' every opposition and obstacle. 'But this is universally ac-
knowledged.
There was a circumstance of extraordinary interest in the
proceedings of the evening, which promises infallibly to
ensure and to perpetuate the attractive influence of the High-
land Society ; and that was, the election to the dignity of
Honorary Members of no less personages than two Highland
LADIES of distinction, each of whom is the HEAD of her
CLAN. The one is a Lady of whom every Scottish belt is proud
to be the countryman,Lady GWYDYII4 A BIIAN DILUMADACHI
and the other, Mrs. MACDONALD, of MacDonald, [A BRAN
Do NuL LA C ] The announ cement of this very important acces-
sion of strength and consequence was hailed with loud and re-
iterated acclamations ; and gave during the whole evening an
evident impulse to the spirits of the mountaineers, who, with
good reason, regarded the .event as forming a most happy and
auspicious era in the history of their Society.
Circumstances concurred to render this meeting remarkable,
for in addition to that just mentioned, there was the excellent
and dignified Chairman, who, abating only 36 years, has
served his country for a century ; and yet he performed the du-
ties 'of the Chair with all the mind• and activity of youth, and
shewed an undiminished and most becoming fondness for the
habits and usages of his native mountains. There was also a
Croupier, Mr. Secretary Wedderburn, under whose clever ma-
nagement the Society has already profited so much, and has so
many advantages in prospect.
Several good addresses were made to the Chair, among which
we remarked those of Mr. Linning, a Member of the Highland
Society of Edinburgh ; and of 111 r. Secretary Wedderburn,
who took occasion to impress on Gentlemen, especially such as
were Highlanders, the necessity of adopting on such occasions
the
.garb of their country ; and this he did in terms so very
spirited and appropriate, as not to leave a doubt but that, at all
future General Courts of the Society, the feilZheag shall be
seen on all the sons of the Gael.

We must not close our account without mention of that gal-
lant appendage to the Society, Mr. Clarke, the piper, whose
spirit-stirring piobrachds oftener than once brought to our
thoughts the departed times of feudal glory and of clannish in-
dependence. Mr. Gow's bewitching fiddle procured, as usuc 1,
its well-gained portion of applause.
It being Saturday, the meeting, with a commendable regard
for the succeeding day, broke up sooner than it would other-
wise have done. So the beautifully sung song of Good night
and joy be you a', concluded the hilarities of the occasion
about midnight ; and with a hearty shake of the hand the com-
pany separated, aye " glad"to meet, and witO to part, and
glad to meet again.'.

CALEDONIAN ASYLUM BALL.
This splendid Ball, under the patronage of his Royal High-
ness the Duke of Yon): and ALBANY, President of the Insti-
tution, was given at Willie's Rooms on Monday the 13th inst.
The merits of this truly national charity, for the education and
support of the children of those gallant Scotsmen who have fal-
len in the service of their country, did not fail td attract the
most brilliant assemblage which we have ever witnessed. The
company exceeded 1,400, and,. in addition to all the distin-
guished Ladies, under whose immediate auspices the ball was
arranged, we bserved most of the leading characters in the
fashionable world. The Ladies were chiefly attired in fancy
dresses, with some emblem appropriate to the occasion ; the
Patronesses wearing the tartans and badges of their respective
Clans. The Highland garb was displayed with its accustomed
grace by Mac Chaillein Mor, Mac Mhic Ailein, the Chief of
Clannronald, M'Dougall of 1114Dougall, and a large portion of
the company, which, with naval and military uniforms, added
to the effect produced by the tasteful decorations of the room.
The colours of Scotland were displayed and surrounded by
those of the Patronesses, with their distinctive clan badges and
inscriptions.
The interesting objects of the Charity, paraded by the Direc-
tors, and preceded by a gallant Highland piper playing " Cogadh
na Sith," were drawn up before, the Patronesses, and attracted
their notice, as well as that of his Grace the Duke of Welling.
ton and other General Officers, for their becoming deportment,
and healthy appearance. The Highland reels were danced
with the spirit which is always inspired by the admirable strains
of Gow's band, and the party did not separate till after day-
break. Among the company we observed the Duke of Wel-
lington, the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland, the Duke
and Duchess of Argyll, the Earl and Countess of Cassillis, the
Duchess of Leeds, Prince Cariate Cimitelli, the Countess of
