./METROPOLITAN SE WA GE MANURE
Incorporated by 9 and 10 Victoria.
The Directors of this Company have the satisfaction to announce
that they have oktained their amended Act, and will proceed with all
possible speed to carry out the important objects for which the Com-
pany is incorporated. They are ready to receive applications for the
New- Shares of 201. each, authorised by the amended Act to be
Issued.
Upon the amount of deposits and calls, interest, at the rate of four
pefeent. per annum, will be allowed from the day of payment ; and
by the Act of Incorporation Shareholders aro only liable to the
amount of the shares.

ALEX. GREIG, Secretary.
7, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, December 11, 1847.
The Company's plans have been already tried, and their advan-
tages proved, on a farm of 300 acres near Glasgow. At Edinburgh
the application of sewage water has raised th• value of land from
2s. 601. an acre to 151. and 201., and at Mansfield from 4s. 6d. to.
11/. 4s. •

The Select Committee of the House of Commons en the Company's
Bill " urge the importance of the project," and declare their opinion
"that only through the agency of a company" can the objects con-
templated, " be combined and applied to the important purposes of
Cleansing our Towns, Purifying bur Rivers, and Enriching our Soil."
Again, the Report of Her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and
Forests pronounces " the principle involved" to bo " national."
The establishment of this Company may therefore be regarded as
the commencement of a system fraught with great national benefits,
contemplating not only profit upon invested capital, but increased
comfort and improved health to tile inhabitants of towns, and ines-
timable advantages to the agriculture of the United Kingdom.
The most careful calculation that has been made, exhibits a profit
of from 15 to 20 per cent. ; this calculation was loped upon the esti-
mated supply of Sewage to 39,000 acres, but sinco that time Fanners,
Market Gardeners, and LandoVeners, cultivating about 68,000 acres
of land have, by petition to Parliament, expressed their anxiety to
take a supply of Sewage Manure from the Company.
The Act of Incorporation requires that at least three months'
notice shall elapse between the Calls, which shall not exceed 21. 10s.
per Share. Five per cent. Interest will be paid on all sums received
in advance Of

Oentlomon,—l hereby request you to allot me Shares, of
20/. each, in the above Company, and I undertake to accept the
same. or any less number that may be allotted to me, to pay the
deposit of 1/. per Share thereon, and to execute the necessary deeds

M One half the worid are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing berry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happinoss
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice dernaad that health should form an item
in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern yon, procure Dr. CULYERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS On Single and Married Life," pub. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
redned, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy nitainterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by nuqualified authors, which alone or
are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
ltiotgueeth together,
publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
