The object of this Company is to offer the following advantages to
travellers, which have never yet been attempted:-
1. Economy of time.
2. Diminution in the expenditure of hotels, couriers, servants, &c ,
of at least 20 per cent.
3. The knowledge, before departure, of the exact expense to be
incurred.
4 Exemption from the annoyanus attending payments of fares
by rai:road, steam-boat, hotel 1,.115, luggage, guides, &c.
5. Protection from the loss so frequently experienced in changing
money.
6. Being enabled to travel with the most perf!ct security and com-
fort through all countries, without previous acquaintance with either
their language or customs.
To enable the Company to accomplish these desirable results, they
have made the necessary arrangements watt the various hotels, the
different means of conveyance, whether by steam or diligence, and the
several local authorities on the continent, by which every traveller
will, at his departure from London, or any place en the continent, by
a preliminary payment, be furnished with certificates for ever, pur-
pose requisite on the route, for every hotel, and fur every means of
conveyance, which, on presentation, will entitle the holder to be fur-
nished with the best accommodation at an uniform and reduced
rate. Ile will also be furnished with letters of credit on every leading
town on the continent, as the 'ompany, in part of their arrange-
ments, have with the leading bankers of these places a guarantee
fund always standing to their credit, and in every place of note an
agent of the Company will be stationed, whose duty it will be to give
every informat ion required.
The saving to the traveller will be at least 20 per cent., indepen-
dent of the convenience, surety, and additional comfort ; while from
the arrangements made with the several parties with whom the Com-
pany are in correspondence, a certain return of at least 10 per cent.
may be assured upon the capital invested. The deposit of ls. per
share wtll meet all preliminary expenses, and it is anticipated that
no further call than 11. per share will be required to carry out the
final operations of the Company.
The calls will be made in instalments not exceeding 10s. each, and
they will be lodged at the Company's hankers abroad, bearing in
terest of 4 per cent. in favour of the Company, as securities to the
contracting parties for the payment of the certificates issued by
the Company, and who will immediately thereupon commence their
operations.
Applications for Shares should be addressed to the Secretary, at
the Company's Offices ; or to the agents, Messrs. Woollard and
Jenkins, New City Chambers, 121, Bishopsgate. street Within, where
a detailed prospectus, with the names of the Provisional Committee,

Mechi, determined to carry out his principle of being In the van,
has brought out some most superb and novel specimens in Napier
Mache. Finding it impossible to display them advantageously in his
former space, he has, at considerable expense, fitted up A splendid
Show Room, to which he invites all those who are desirous of seeing
the most brilliant specimens this country can produce. It is not ex-
pected that visitors will purchase, although of course Medd will be
quite happy to tempt his customers, and supply their wants. His
principle is, and always will be, to exchange or return the money for
any article purchased of him that may be disapproved. This binds
him to quality. Ile has always found that his customers never leave
him, because they are always satisfied. Among the recherche speci-
mens of rapier Mache, articles will be found, some decorated with
admirable copies of Edwin Landseer's most popular and modern
paintings, together with some exquisite lanscapes of Windsor Castle,
Virginia Water. the Isle of Wight, &c. &e.

pARISS' PULMONIC ClGARETTES.—Phy-
sicians have long discovered that in diseases of the lungs and
air passages, a remedy to be really efficacious must come in direct
contact with the diseased organ, and this cannot take place unless it
be administered under the form of vapour or smoke. The diseases
in which the Cigarettes have been found so beneficial are, difficulty
of breathing, tightness of the chest, spasmodic asthma, catarrhs,
hoarseness, sore throats, aphony (loss of voice), ear-aches, rheum*
tism of the jaws, tooth-ache, neuralgia, &c. In the first stage of
consumption their beneficial effects are surprising, and in the ad
van Ced stages they relieve the cough, lessen the expectoration, check
the night perspiration, and produce calm and refreshing sleep.

Vie paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor
tnnity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using Behold four months,
nd the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than
ever was before the baldness appeared. _ _ _

"Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.',
Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an l Is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous beaalache ; as a toilet perfume it is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact:.-3, Swan-street, Borough."

DESTITUTION AND SICKNESS.
The affluent and benevolent are earnestly solicited to aid
the efforts now making by the Managing Committee of the ROYAL
FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's Inn-road, a charity established for the
Relief of the Foreigner, the Stranger, the Friendless, and the Outcast,
when in Sickness or Disease, who are here received so far as the
means of the Institution will permit.
Neither patronage nor letters of recommendation are necessary :
were it otherwise, the wretched beings for whose benefit the Institu-
tion is intended would not know how or where to obtaiu them, and
while seeking for the means of admission would, in all probability,
perish unheeded and unknown ; a melancholy instance of which
kind gave rise to the founding of this charity. A large debt, which
is now gradually being reduced, still encumbers the operations of
the. Committee, but confiding in the spirit and benevolence of an
English public in support of such a charity, they fearlessly continue
their efforts to meet the urgent appeals daily made at their gates by
the most miserable and wretched of the human race.

'REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the delects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentieraan residing at Wortharn, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning front itarlestone alarket to Wei bred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
'ineed to come off, ti►l he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly
bald as if Iris head had been shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel,
then clergyman of tire pariah, offered him a wig as a substitute for
his lost hair. Under these circumstances, be was induced to try the
effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAft OIL, and it is highly gratifying
to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was
used the growth recommenced, and he has new to boost of a very
thick and 'luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity,
that, though prior to les'ea4 his haft* it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—hell's Messenger.
ROWLAND'S MACASSAIt OIL preserves and reproduces the
Hair ; prevents it from falling off or turning Grcy ; Changes Grey
Hair to its Original Colour; frees it from Scurf and Dandriff, and
makes it beautifully soft and curly.

CASSAR OIL," some under the " implied" sanction of Royalty and
he Government Departments, with similar attempts at deception.

POTATOES.
TO THE,EDITO.R OF THE SUN.

Sz..a,—The time being rapidly approaching, when that
root must.be planted the failure of which has caused and
is still eausing.so_much misery both in our own and the
sister kingdom; ma .1 venture to suggest a plan which I
feel confident would much alleviate, if not wholly prevent,
the disease. It has been imputed, and I think with good
reason, by soma one to the swarms of green insects
vhich covered the whole of the vegetable kingdom
during the spring and early summer months of last year,
which, by preventing the proper growth of the haulm,
siaused them to wither gradually away, and by that
.neans aff.•ctfng the tubers. To prevent this I would
suggest to the growers of potatoes that they collect all
..tie waste rubbish they can, with which after the
potatoes have grown about six inches in height they
.hnuld cause fires to be lighted.i❑ different parts of the
'.field or gat den, as the case may bt-, by vi hich means they
would easily destroy the greeter part of the insects, thus
.easing the plant free to imbibe the atmosphere essential
o its full developtnent. The early dawn I consider.
%uuld ht: the b3.t time, as the ►moke will curl along tt►e

round fur a greater distznce; it coull llkewise be Ciatie
iided by having a rick-cloth stretched across a few
hurdles placed at suitable distance. In gas dens, I am
confident, were this plan generally applied, We should
lave but few failures of the fruit crops in future years
compared with the past.
Trusting some at least may be induced to try thji in
expensive remedy fOr the blight both in the potato and
other crops, the benefit arising therefrom will end in
something more than mere smoke.
I am, Sir, &c., J. B.

FLANDERS AND DUTCH MAILS.
BRUSSELS, MARCH 15.—We are happy to say that
:he fruit tieeiery kind never appeared to promise
more-pleduce. The late frosts have hitherto
checked the vegetation, and we have reason to hope
that this year will furnish a great abundance of fruit ;
ind, considering the advanced season, we may believe
chat the unfavourable weather has not destroyed the
immense quantity of buds which cover the trees. Ex•
cept rapeseed, which has suffered slightly by the frost,
It the crops have the most promising appearance.
The Journal du Commerce er Anvers says—" rhe ac-
counts which we receive of the market of Louvain to-

(lay announce a decline in the prices of corn, but they
were not exactly known on 'Change to-day."

Several respectable merchants of Antwerp propose to
tddress a petition to the Chambers for the entire freedom
Hof the trade in corn. At the market of Aron, on
Thursday last, wheat which the week before was quoted
tit 331. 12c. rose to 40f. The Echo du Luxemburg says
Our inhabitants view with resignation and composure,
this rise in the pricts. They hope that the Govern-
ment will not fail in its duty by abandoning them. They
Lsk tor work and not for alms."

A letter from Riga 'of the 20th of Feb., says, "the
merchants of this city have just made large purchases
if corn. As soon as the ice breaks up in the Dwina
50,000 lasts of rye are expected to be brought down by
boats (a last is equal to 304 hectolitres), 5,000 or 6,000
lasts of wheat, and 20,000 lasts of barlty, will be
sent away as soon as possible. It is calculated that
nearly 1,000 boats will be necessary for this purpose.
The Bremen Gazette, announcing the arrival of an
American Consul, says that it is more probable that the
Grand Duchy is going to conclude a treaty of commerce
aid navigation with the United States, or that it will
participate in the treaty, which the States has just con-
cluded with Hanover.

The town of Mountjoy, a few leagues of Aix la Cha-
pelle, is in danger cf being swallowed up in parts, by the
sinking down of the mountain which overhangs it. It
is feared that the melting of the snow has led to this
catastrophe.
VIENNA, MAncu B.—Count Francis Stadian, the Go-
vernor of Trieste, arrived yesterday in Vienna. He is
spoken of as desigLed for the government of
Gallicia. Count Deyru is still here to discuss the rela-
tions of Cracow.
DESTRUCTION OF THE THEATRE AT
CARLSRUHE.

GRAND DUCHY OF BADEN.—On Sunday, March 7,
mass was performed at the Romau Catholic church, for the
sufferers who perished in the conflagration of the 20th
of February, Mozart's Requiem was celebrated by the
whole body of performers of the Royal Opera, and of
the Royal Chapel. The entire body of the church was
thronged by persons of every class, who manifested the
most lively sympathy for the unfortunate sufferers. On
the 10th of March, a circular was issued in Bremen.
inviting the co-operation of all the theatres in
Germany to a benefit on behalf of those who
suffereo from the destruction at the theatre at
Carlsruhe, and stating that Bremen, although so
far removed from the scene of suffering, desires
to be foremost in the laudable example of send-
ing succ.)ur. The announcement says, el the
theatre has caused the affliction, $o let the
.heatres now afford consolation. This titmly sympathy
will, it is hoped, in some degree ameliorate the deep
I 'tuff:ring., and afford seasonable relief to many a be-
trayed heart and hapless orphan, and thus the, detailed
accounts of this calamity given in °Ur-journal may-yield
beneficial fruit.

THE HAGUE, MAncu IG.—The Members of the First
Chamber of the States-Generat are summoned to meet
In the 24th of March next. _ _ _

The Cologne Gazette of yesterday published the
following article : ihe Dutch Government is at
this moment negotiating with the Z illverein and
with France, in order to obtain- facilities for its
commercial relations with those new states. Hol-
land is especially desirous to extend its maritime
trade and to retain the commerce of the Rhine, not-
withstanding the competition of Belgium. The cor-
respondents of several journals are, however, mistaken
when they affirm that secondary concessions have
been offered by the Cabinet of the Hague in
exchange for the favours which it desires to obtain
prom the Zollverein. If we are well informed
it is contemplated to grant to the states of the Zollverein
in the Dutch ports the same great advantages which
they enjoy in the port of Antwerp. As a condition "sine
qua non" Holland insists on the abolition, or a considerable
reduction of the tolls on the Rhino; and we know from
good authority, that several German Governments on
the banks of the It'iine see this subject in the same light.
