SCALES, and resolved,

2'l It was moved by the Hon. J. G. BlltwEv, from the United
States, seconded by the Right Hon. Dr. S. LUSHINGTON,
T▪
hat this Meeting, in reviewing the proceedings of the Society
nringthe first year of its existence, feels called upon to acknow-
"age with gratitude, the degree in which it lias been enabled to
141 note the purposes for which it was established, especially in
awakening•• tot attention bothin this and other countries to the
dreadful enormities of Slavery and the Slave-trade.
3(1 It was moved by D. O'CoNNELL, Esq., M.P., seconded
by W. ALLEN, Esq., and resolved,
that while this meeting rejoices in the rapid progress of the
seof Abolition in the Free States of the United States of
America, and deeply sympathises with those of our American
brethren who are struggling in the maintenance of that cause,
tkainst the inveterate prejudices and sordid interests of their
the flow-citizens. It greatly deplores, and indignantly reprobates
1 existence and extension of slavery in the southern parts
w(lz that great Republic, by which a sixth portion of the
and brutes
is degraded into the condition of chattels
-"a brutes, and that an internal slave trade, to an enor-
-111116111 extent, is carried on, to supply the demand for
Zalaa beings in the slave markets of that country under
eamstances as disgusting as they arc barbarous, by all which
t.fie rights of humanity are trampled under foot—the sacred
Peeples of justice and benevolence violated, and the holy
claims of Religion outraged and contemned. This Meeting
*sold therefore call on the American people, in the name of
t)
Christian and Civilized World to renounce these great
iniquities, and the flagrant inconsistency of upholding them in
ect apposition to the solemn, recognized rights of humanity,
!set forth in the Declaration of Independence.
It was moved by Rev. W. KNIBB; seconded by W. W.
ANDERSON, and resolved,
k_ith. That in the opinion of this Meeting the laws which
ine recently been passed in the Islands of Jamaica and Bar.
oes comprehend numerous enactments of an unrighteous
cruel character, productive at once of intolerable oppres-
"a to the emancipated classes, and of severe obstruction to
rieulture, and put into imminent hazard, both the welfare of
t!'e colonies and the successful results of the great act of eman-
e'Pali in, and that this !Sleeting, therefore, most respectfully and
n:nestly implore the Queen's Ministers to recommend to her
jesty in Council, the immediate disallowance of those laws,
8,1 not to withdraw, upon any consideration whatever, the
,„,lPenslary Magistracy which is at present indispensable to the
11-°,lection of the coloured labourers.
to. That this Meeting derives great encouragement from the
rnation of numerous Auxiliaries, not only in Great Britain,
e.ta's° in the British West Indies, upon the Principles of this
.siety,
• That so long as Slavery exists there is no reasonable pro-
!tot of the annihilation of the Slave-trade, and of extinguish-
"ii! the sale and barter of human beings, that the extinction of
i
'''''cry and the Slave-trade will be attained most effectually
a' the employment of those means which are of a moral, reli-
and pacific character, and that no means be resorted to
•iipeY Society in the prosecution of those objects but such as
in entire accordance w:th these principles.

B. STANTON, Esq., from the United States, and resolved,

ss_tile objects of this Society, would urge upon the friends of
enslaved of every clime, the great necessity which exists,
a Which in the recent sittings of the General Convention
been made still more aarent, for renewed and vastly in-
ts!ssed efforts to bring slavery itself, and the slave-trade,
which• so necessarily depends upon it, to a perpetual end.
the this meeting is greatly animaterl by the response which
44' friends of the cause, the abolitionists from other countries
%well as from all parts of the United Kingdom. have made to
ihe call of this Society to the General Convention, which has
Closed its highly interestin' and important labours.

Mr. KENNEDY, and resolved,

Zrabers of the Committee be re-appointed for the ensuing

iutcl tions within their respective districts.

THERE is perhaps no situation in life so full
of embarrassment as when the over-sensitir( feel them-
selves Compelled to reveal their moral indiscretions, or their physical
Perfections, to others. Day after day does the horn)] of exposure
'teurnulate in the morbid imagination, while increasing disease aug-
Ments the suffering of the body and the irritability of the mind. Sen-
sible of the anguish thus protracted, we have adoiste s system which
,°4 practical experience has proved to be highly smeessful, and which
reeludes the absolute necessity of personal communication with
those who recoil from such mode of consultation. A full and minute
description of the case, WI itteil iii plain language, will enable tit to
treat the patient with delicate secrecy; and such has been the pecu-
liar nature of our practice, embracing every variety of difficult cir-
etlmstances that the most timid may leel encouragement in the oppor.
Wilily thus affbrded them.
Twenty-flve years of practice, exclusively devoted to diseases
ru,sincr from indiscretion, gaiety, or climate, whereby the constitution
raY h-aye become enfeebled, enable us to promise a restoration to
ealth, without any interference with the ordinary diet and habits.
Messrs. GOSS and Co. are to be consulted, as usual, every day,
at their residence; and Patients in the remotest parts of the coun-
try can be treated successfully on their d'rscribing minutely the case,
and enclosing a remittance for L deice and Medicine. No difficulty
can occur, as the Medicines will be securely packed, and carefully
protected from obserr-.1.:•::.
