UNDER THE ESPECIAL -ANCTION OF THE LORDS COM-

MISSIONERS OF THE ADMIRALTY.
THE NAUTICAL GAZETTEER; or DIC-
TIONARY OF MARITIME GEOGRAPHY.
The object of this Publication is to furnish the Naval Service with
a 'took of Reference, applicable to the localities of the seas, embrac-
ing' general and particular accounts of the coasts of the continents
and islands of the world, with the roadsteads, harbours, navigable
rivers., shoals, bars, rocks, channels, currents, &c., together with the
towns and cities approachable by shipping; also the latitudes, longi-
tudes, soundings, anchorages, and compass variations, with the
general sailing directions to and from the principal roads ; the whole
arranged alphabetically, in six grand divisions of the oceanic surface,
namely, the North Atlantic, the South Atlantic, the Indian Ocean,
the North Pacific, the south Pacific, and the Arctic and Antarctic
Seas.

The work will combine nautical with geographical information,
and form a complete epitome of easy reference, adapted to the con-
venience of the seaman, useful in professional education, whether for
the Royal or commercial Navy, and advantageous in the counting-
house of the merchant, as well as in public libraries.

It will be published in Monthly Parts, price 2s. 6d., and the whole
will be completed in One large Volume. The First Part will appear
on the Ist of October next.

T 0 E R K S.
Owing to the great derangement of mercantile affairs which
prevails at the present time, the Board of Management of the
PROVIDENT CLERKS' ASSOCIATION, in their earnest desire to
benefit their fellow Clerks by every means in their power, deem the
present a most fitting opportunity to remind them of the existence of
this Association.
It has now been established for nearly seven years, and, from the
peculiar privileges and advantages It possesses, it is calculated to
promote the comfort and to relieve the mind of that Clerk who, in
the time of prosperity, shall have had the foresight to become a
member, and have thereby made some provision for the contingencies
of toe future.
It is with the utmost satisfaction that the Board of Management
announce that the Association exhibits a continued progressive im-
provement in the number of it- members, and that the Life Assur-
ance Department is now established beyond doubt on a safe and per-
manent footing.
In issuing this short address, the Board strongly invite Clerks to
consider the principles of the Association, and they feel that they
cannot express themselves more effectively than in giving an extract
of a speech deify, red by the Right Hon the Earl of Dalhousie, on
the occasion of his Lordship presiding at their anniversary dinner, in
May, 1846, and which has particular reference to the advantages of
Life Assurance, viz.:—
"And the Society has this recommendation, that there are none
whose means are so small but that they may obtain advantage from
it. No man is so poor, no clerk so humble, but may join in order to
provide for the wants of the future by contributing towards its
fends, which will be fostered and cherished, and paid to the utter-
most farthing. Such Associations are of the greatest value in this
country, c hose yearly increase in wealth rivals and surpasses that
of princes. And permit me to say, that which I take the liberty of
recommending to you and others of our humble brethren, is not that
which Ido not practise myself. I do not preach other than I prac-
tise; I feel the full value of what can be done by mutual as-
surance."

31- One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitterthe latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form az 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 you, procure Dr. CULYERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pltb. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
by misinterpretation 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 u..qualitied authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little 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
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the nrixims he would ineulcate—tn do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on the " sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of
Sherwood, 23, Paternoster-row ; Carvalho, 147, Fleet •street ; Mann,

wise) from the author (who may be conferred with personally,

LANDLORD'S CALL.
It pay ANECDOTE FOR QUARTER-DAY.
,-, -as quarter-day or near, when Landlord Lett,
,alled at a tenant's house his rent to get;
But understand that though the landlord went,
He didn't much expect to get his rent.
Knowing that heretofore his dreaded knock
Bad acted on his tenant like a shock.
mit now there needed not the s ightest fuss,
For Mr. Tenant met the landlord thus:
Geed Morning, Mr. Landlord, pray walk in,
For Sir, (excuse the
AboUt‘a phrase). I've got the tin.
year ago, or maybe less,
Anto work to try and save in dress,
d having from my neighbours understood
That Messrs. MOSES sell both cheap and good.
I made a Purchase from their stock of stocks,
And put the savings in a money box.
Here the good tenant on the table roll'd
His gains by MOSES—copper, silver gold,
And having counted it he smiled te view
Enough to pay his rent and taxes too.
Well done, exclaimed the landlord, I propose
We drink to MOSES and to MOSES' clothes.

his abilities from physicians and surgeons of great eminence, which
is a most important consideration to those wh from the peculiar
nature of their infirmities, are obliged to seek medical assistance
