1. On the motion of TuoatAs FOWELL Bux-rox, Esq.
seconded by the Lord Bishop of WINCHESTER., it was una-
nimously resolved,
That, notwithstanding all the measures hitherto adopted for
the suppression of the foreign trade in slaves, the traffic has in-
creased and continues to increase under circumstances of ag-
gravated horror, and prevails to an extent which imperative-
ly calls for the strenuous and combined exertion of the whole
Christian community to effect i's extinction.
2. On the motion of the Right Hon. STEY:IEN LITSIIINC;TON,
seconded by the Venerable Archdeacon WienEßroltCE, it
was unanimously resolved,
That the utter failure of every attempt by treaty, by remon-
strance, or by naval armaments, to arrest the progress of the
trade ; and the exposure recently made, by the publication of
Mr. Buxton, of the deep interest which the African Chiefs
have in its continuance as the means of obtaining European
goods and manufactures, prove the necessity of res irting, to a
preventive policy, founded on different and higher principles.

B. On the motion of the Right Hon. Sir ROBERT PEEL,
Bart, M.P., it was carried by acclamation.
That the warmest thanks of this meeting be respectfully pre-
sented to his Royal Highness Prince Albert, for his conde-
•cension in accepting the office of President of this Society, and
for having taken the chair this day.
4. On the motion of the Lord Bishop of CHIC 11 ESTE a,snonded
by SAMUEL GURNEY, Eeq., it was unanimously resolved,
That this policy is to be found in the civilization of Africa
by.the introduction of Christianity, by the promotion of legiti-
mate commerce, and by encouraging the cultivation of the s•,il
upon a system of free labour.
- - - -

b. On the motion of Earl of CHICHESTER, seconded by the
lion. CHARLES LANGDALE, M.P., it was unanimously

resolved,
That, in the opinion of this meeting►, Great Britain is re-
quired both by every consideration of sound commercial policy
and by the higher motives of Christian obligation, to exert all
her influence and all her power for the 'effectual suppression of
the Slave Trade, and that the means proposed by this Society,
in accordance with the principles recognized in its prospectus,
and in the preceding resolutions appear eminently calculated to
conduce to the attainment of that great result, and are there-
ere entitled to cordial approbation and support.
. On the motion of the Lord ASHLEY, M.P., seconded by
the Rev. GRo. CLAYTON, it was unanimously resolved,

That this• meeting earnestly and solemnly appeals to the
whole Christian community to further the operations of this
Society by pecuniary contributions, by private and public in-
fluence, and by all other means that are legitimate in the pro.
ecution of a purpose dictated by humanity, approved by sound
peliuy, anxiously desired by the country, and undertaken in
the humble hope that the blessing of Almighty God will be
vouchsafed to its labours. _ _ _

7. On the motion of the Most Noble the Marquis of NORTH-
AmnoN, seconded by the Lord Viscount nowtcx, it was

unanimously resolved,
That in order to promote the interests of this Institution
throughout the kingdom, it is expedient to establish societies
auxiliary to it and in regular correspondence and connexion
with it as extensively as possible- This meeting, therefore,
pledges itself to strenuous efforts for that purpose, and earnestly
Invites the friends of Africa, of every religious persuasion and
political opinion, to adopt such means in their respective neigh-
bourhood, as may contribute, under the Divine blessing, to its
prosperity and success.
a. The election of Vice-Presidents was moved by the Lord
Viscount SA NDON, seconded by the Rev. JOHN DYER,
and serried nnaniinously.
9. The election of the Committee was moved by the Rev. J.
W. CUNNINGHA NI, seconded by the Rev. Dr. BUNTING,
and carried unanimously.
10, On the motion of the Right Hon. Sir GEORGE AIURRAY,
G. C. 8., seconded by Sir THOMAS DYKE ACLAND, Bart.,

AN OLD• ESTABLISHED and HIGHLY-RESPECT-
ABLE COMMERCIAL INN and FAMILY HOTEL.

TO be LET or SOLD, by Mr. GAR-
DINER, in consequence of the ill health of the pro-
prietor, by whom it has for many years been successfully occu-
pied. It is situate in a capital town, and is the nearest house

station The returns are upwards of 6,000/. per annum, un-
connected with coaching. The premises are substantial and
extensive. The surrounding country is of the finest descrip-

to an active man of business a first-rate trade in all its branches.
It is perfectly free from brewer, distiller, and wine- merchant.
Liberal rceommodation will be afforded to a purcha,:er, or to a
tenant who may be approved of.

CIIEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the
Miming until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and secrecy they have hitherto ob-
served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or
recent in trio or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative 'lebility,
Gonorrhoea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva-
lent, are treated upon those unerring principles whizh have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. soli. rge a share of public pa-
tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which.it will be
their future exertion to maintain.

Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients however distant, will be corresponded with unti

Subjoined are a few of the many favourable notices of the
above articles, by the press, with which Mr. 0. Wray has been
honoured, and numerous medical gentlemen and private indi-
viduals have borne testimony to their superior efficacy :
" Dr. Granville's delightful work, the Sp:s of Germany,'
will no doubt induce many persons to visit those celebrated
springs, who stand in need of renovated health. In cases,
however, where the baths are not indispensable, and when the
ehalybeate properties, of the Seidlitz waters are only required
internally, the German Seidlitz powders, manufactured by Mr.
Wray, chemist, of Holborn-hill, will no doubt answer every pur-
pose, as we understand that a correct analysis by several emi-
nent professors of chemistry, has proved that these powders con-
tain the valuable mineral tonic of the celebrated real waters."
—Court Journal, July 27, 1837.
" TEMPERANCE DRINKS AND SUMMER POTATIONS.—
Those who are given to thirst, chastened by abstemiousness
and sobriety, must be especially grateful, particularly in hot
weather, to any one who can satisfy the demands of nature
without leading them to the brink of intoxication ; and, there-
fore, to the compounder of such desirable matters as powders
for the instantaneous production of-soda water, lemonade, gin-
ger beer, &c., all so cooling, sparkling, and refreshing, the
public are much indebted; and it will not be at all astonishing
if Mr. Wray, the laudable patentee of these match:ess powders,
obtains unprecedented popularity amongst all temperance so-
cieties."—Conservative Journal and Church of England Ga-
zette, May 18, 1839. _ _

" Among the thousand and one questions put to us this week,
we are asked which is the best Spa to visit? Our reply is, the
Seidlitz Powders manufactured by Mr. Wray, chemist, of Hol-
born-hill, have now an established reputation for excellence,
immeasurably beyond those of any other practitioner. Persons
who have visited the Spas of Germany: for the renovation of
their health, have, on returning to England, found these
powders to possess all the tonic and aperient qualities of the
celebrated continental springs."—The Weekly Dispatch, May
4, 1839.
" In justice to Mr. Wray, of Holborn hill, we cannot longer
withhold from the public our unqualified approbation of his
Chalybeate German Seidlits Powders. With regard to their
medicinal properties, they approach nearer to the waters of
the justly celebrated Seidlitz Spring than any we have hitherto
met with • and whether taken-during the sultry heats of sum.
mer or the chilling blasts of minter, they will be found an
equally safe and agreeable aperient ; to the bilious, the dyspep-

quently indulge in Bacchanalian excesses, they will prove in-
valuable."—The Sun, June 2, 1835.

To the traveller whose journeys are confined to books, he
offers one in which there is as much variety as novelty—as
much entertainment as information. To the philosophic ob-
server of human nature he presents a most interesting object
of study; to the antiquarian a most fertile field of examina-
tion ; to the loser of legendary lore, and the inquirer into
popular superstitions, an ample fend of new and strange mate-
rial for thought and fancy,. Finally, he puts on record a large
body of singular and interesting facts touching an actual con-
dition of society, to which the extraordinary social changes
that are at hand throughout Europe, and especially in France,
may at no distant period put an end for ever. Mixed with the
graphic style of the book there is a liveliness and bonhomraie
which greatly add to its charm, and which makes it altogether
a work of universal attraction."—New Monthly.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

The day of riglheous retribution' has dawned. The

leaders of the base factionists who openly insulted her
Majesty at public meetings and tavern dinners, because
she refused to become the tool of-a party hostile to the
liberties of her people, and the interests of her realm—

. -
these foamers-out of malignant vituperation, as false as
it was foul, have ventured to add to their former base-
ness, hypocritical pretensions to loyal affection toward
the Queen whom they so recently vilified, whom they per.
tinaciouslv endeavoured to defame, and so to deprive of
:he respect and attachment of her subjects. The attempt
has been met as it deserved. The Rev. Mr. MiNeil, a
notorious offender against decency in his application of
offensive epithets to his Queen, came forward at a pub.
lie nuteting at Liverpool, to move a congratulatory
address to her Majesty on her providential preservation
from the hand of an assassin, arid was compelled to
retire amid the indignant hissings and upbraiding of
his assembled townimen. The experiment was too bold :
the attempt too much at variance with the semblance of
consistency, for the sense of honesty which pervades an
assembly of Englishmen to tolerate. An Address to the
Queen, couched in terms of respectful attachment, moved
by lips which had been eloquent in endeavours to deprive
her of a monarch's best revenue—the heart's homage of
her people—would have been an insult, and not a tribute,
and must have been received with coldness, if not spurned
with disgust. A similar instructive and salutaby leison
has been read to the Canterbury and Ashton slanderers.
( From the Standard.)
_ _ _

In the House of Lords the Irish Municipal Bill was
advanced as far as the preamble ; the house went into
Committee pro forma ; Lord Lyndhurst handed in a se-
ries of itmendmeats, the house resumed, and Monday-
week was fixed for their consideration. The Bishop of
Exeter took this opportunity, without dividing the House, on
the motion for going into Committee, to record his dissent
from this fatal measure. It is now, however, necessary for us
to direct attention to the eloquent and high-principled ad-
dress in which the Right Rev. Prelate stated his reasons
for this dissent. We cannot help saying, however, that by
this protest, he has, if possible, added to his claims on the
gratitude of all friends of Protestantism. We do nut be-
lieve yet that this fatal measure will ever receive the as-
sent of the Ilou4e of Lords, at least in those provisions
which affect the city of Dublin. A motion to respect the
Irish Magna Charts will certainly be made—we will not
insult the House of Lords by doubting the result.
( From the Courier.)
The effect of the atrocious system of Irish registration
was never more conspicuous than in the majority ob-
tained last night for Lord Morpeth's amendment on
Lord Stanley's [till. It would bo impossible, with-
out the operation of a system not only permissive of
fraud and perjury, but absolutely encouraging those
crimes, for any one of the Members known as the
vertebrae of O'Connell's Tail to have possessed ri seat in
Parliament, and nothing is more certain than the scornful
rejection by the bulk of English gentlemen in the Eloise, of
any proposition for the continuance of a registration which is
attended with such disgraceful occurrences as took place in
the Revising Courts of Ireland. Victories such as these, like
all other triumphs over reason, justice, and religion, do
but cover the conquerors with eternal dishonour. Were
we to subtract the notorious Tail, and the members and
hacks of Government, from the Ministerial majority of last
night, we should find that our estimate of English mora-
lity is not unfounded, and that there is a great majority of
our native gentry in the House, who are not unmindful of
the lofty character which their order has always sustained.

ADDRESS TO HER MAJESTY.

ABERGAVENNV, FRIDLV, Twoo'CLoca,

♦ meeting of the inhabitants of this ancient town has just taken
place in the Town Hall, to congratulate the Queen on her recent
escape from assassination. The Chair was ably filled by that truly
liberal and enlightened Clergyman, the Rev. W. Powell, B.D ,
Vicar of Abergavenny. In opening the business of the meeting he
gave a severe and well-merited castigation to that portion of the
Press who have sneered and treated lightly the late atrocious at-
