NORTON'S TRULY VALUABLE CAMO-
MILE PILLS, FOR INDIGESTION, &c.
These Pills are a pure extract of camomile flowers, prepared by a
peculiar process, by which all the medicinal properties of rather more
than one ounce of the dowers are concentrated into four moderate
sized pills, They are mild in operation, and have proved wonder-
fully successful in removing every sympton of indigestion, sick head-
ache, loss of appetite, giddiness, heartburn, costiveness, eruptions of
the skin, and all complaints arising from a disordered state of the
digestive organs ; they require no alteration of diet, and their opera-
tions will be found so beneficial in givin; tone to the stomach, regu-
lating the bowels, and in promoting a healthy habit, as fully to con-
vince all who take them of their great utility. Pertons who have
suffered from indigestion for several years, have, by their use, in a
few weeks perfectly recovered, which is a convincing proof that in
the smallest compass is contained the largest quantity of the tonic
principle of so peculiar a nature as to pervade the whole system,
through which it diffuses health acid strength.

CAUTION.--Be sure to ask for " Norton's Pills," and be not per-
naded to purchase an imitation.

THE most agreeable APERIENT in the world
is Water, especially for those who are subject to indigestion,
costiveness, bile, &c., as its effect is instantaneous, and not attended
by the slightest pain or uneasiness. But those who desire to relieve
effectually the stomach and bowels with this natural physic, and
to resort to it without trouble or restraint, must apply it with Dr.
SCOTT'S APERITIVE VASE, sold by W. PINE, 3d9, Strand.
W. P. also supplies the SONIFERS which magnify voices to any
pitch a deaf person may choose. Descriptions sent post tree, on re-

The never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC
PILLS in curing every description .of Gout and Rheumatism, have
secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or
present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but restore
to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are
equally speedy and certain in Lumbago, Sciatica, Pains in the Plead
or Face, and indeed of every Rhematic or Gouty affection ; in fact,
sucn has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this
medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it, and there is
scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom, but contains many
grateful evidences of its benign influence.

"WHAT D'YE BUT?"

How often in London we're met with the cry,
As we pass through the streets, " What d'ye buy? what d'ye buy ?"
E. MOSES and SON (through the means of this question)
Beg permission to offer a useful suggestion.
They possess, at their Warehouse, a boundless supply,
And they fearlessly say, " What d'ye buy ? what d'ye buy e
They've thousands of garments, in perfect condition,
Whose very low prices defy competition.
E. MOSES and SON have a plentiful stock
Of elegant over-coats, dress-ceats, and frock,
And they've trowsers and waistcoats, whose fashions outvie,
With all that you need—" What d'ye buy? what d'ye buy ?"
They've juvenile articles truly unique,
Torts-alled by any, wherever you seek.
And the hats and the furs of E. MOSES and SON
Have never been equall'd since trade was begun.
And their outfits and hosiery stand very high
In the public's esteem—" What d'ye buy ? what d'ye buy ?"
At the Warehouse of MOSES and SON you may meet
With the best boots and shoes that have ever deck'd feet;
And, remember economy's law is the rule,
Messrs. MOSES were taught at Economy's school ;
And on quality here you may safely rely
In the goods that they sell—" What d'ye buy ? what d'ye buy r

The CHAIRMAN replied that all the A shares would be
called up before April, for the coastructien of the St. Ives
and Wisbeach line, and B would be devoted to the purposes
of the Maldom and Witham line. C and D would be ap-
plied to the purposes of such lines as Parliament might
grant iu the present session. The shares would carry divi-
dends so soon as the lines to which they were applied came
into working operation. A pledge had already been given that
until these York Extension shares were exhausted ,no further
creations would be made. When all those shares were paid
up, they would become Eastern Counties' stock.
A PROPRIETOR thought it would be better to exhaust the
calls of A before any were made in B.
The Bill was then approved of, as were also the following :
A Bill to authorise the purchase, by the Eastern Counties
.Railway Company of the North Woolwich Railway, and the
lease of the pepper warehouses and "wharfs of the East and
West India Dock Company, and the construction of docks in
connexion with the North Woolwich Railway.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Syston and Peterbarough Rail-
way, in the parish of Etton, in the county of Northampton,
to the Ambergate, Nottingham, and Bolton Junction Rail-
way, near Folkingham.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Ccuntics Railway Company
to enlarge their London and Stratford stations, and to amend
some of the provisions of the Acts relating to the Eastern
Counties Railway Company.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Eastern Counties Railway, at
West Ham, to or near the Victoria Park, with Branches to
the East and West India Docks and Birmingham Junction
Railway.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Wisbeach, St. Ives, and Cam-
bridge Junction Railway, in the parish of Somertham, to the
town of Ramsey.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company to
make a railway from the Eastern Counties hallway, near
Cambridge, to the Hertford and Ware branch of the Northern
and Eastern Railway, with branches.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Eastern Counties Railway, near
Cambridge, to the Bedford and Bletchley Railway, at or near
Bedford, with branches.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Northern and Eastern Rallis ay
at Hertford, to the Great Northern Railway, near Hitchin.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to Make a railway from the Eastern Counties Railway, at or
near the Forestgate station, to Southend, with branches.
A Bill for making a railway from the Maldon, Witham,
and Braintree Railway, near Braintree, to llalstead.
The CHAIRMAN said the next was

A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Northern and Eastern Railway,
at Tottenham, to or near Guildford-street, with branches to
the East and West India Dock and Birmingham Junction
Railway. The length was a mile and a half, and the
capital a million and a half.
Several shareholders objected to the last Bill. The cost
was too much.
The CHAIRMAN said the directors were prepared to with-
draw it. They took the opinion of the shareholders on those
Bills in accordance with the standing orders, but they did
not bind themselves to proceed with all the Bills should
reasons arise for withdrawing any of them.
The Bill was withdrawn, and the two following Bills were
agreed to
A: Bill to authorise the purchase, by the Eastern Coun-
ties Railway Company, of the Maldon, Witham, and Brain-
tree Railway.
A Bill to enable the Eastern Counties Railway Company
to make a railway from the Great Northern Railway, near
Spalding, to the Nottingham and Lincoln Branch of the
Midland Counties Railway.
In reply to a question,
The CHAIRMAN stated that the A shares would be allowed
to carry dividends from July next, payable in the following
January, and after the former month the A shares would be
divided from the B.

In reply to another question,
The CHAIRMAN said there was no truth whatever in the
statement which had appeared in one of the railway prints,
than it was his intention to resign owing to his
being unable to agree with his colleagues on the
subject of the management of the line. He felt
that his character and reputation were bound up in
the prosperity, and should any event happen requiring his
retirement, which he did not for a moment anticipate, he
would take care that the shareholders should be informed of
the fact by himself. He repeated, however, that there was
no foundation whatever for the rumour which had gone
abroad, and he hoped to remain with them till age incapaci-
tated him for business.—(Cheers.)
A vote of confidence was then passed to the chairman and
directors, and the meeting terminated.
