TAI'LOR'S PATENT WOOD CUTTING
COMPANY.

Capital 50,000/. in 1,000 Shares of 501. each.
Deposit 11. per Sha e.
The names of the Directors will be published on Saturday
next.

The objoct of this Company is to carry into profitable em-
ployment the patent which Mr. Taylor has obtained for Eng-
land, Scotland, Ireland, and the Colonies, for cutting wood by
machinery after it has been steamed.

For a quarter share of the pr.,fits arising from the manu-
factories, and one-hall from the licenses, the Patentee has con-
sented to vest the whole ?vent right in a Company, providing
adequate capital to carryout the greatbusiness likely to arise front
it. That business eat be measured by the factthat it is calculated
to supersede all the cooperage in the kingdom in the making
of casks, inasmuch as, if tho materials could be had for nothing,
under the present system, the expense of labour alone would
be greater than the entire cost of both materials and labour
under this patent.
The machinery with but two-horse steam power, performs
120 evolutions, and with two cutters cuts 240 staves per minute,
making no sawdust, and occasioning no further waste of mate-
rial titan the inequalities of the surface of the Mocks.
The Inaiiiinery can be applied to all other wood cutting, as
well as the making of casks, and the patent granting the exclu-
sive privilege of cutting wood softened by steam, cannot be su-
perseded or rivalled by any other mode of (Ai' ting, of which the
steaming of wood is a necessary element.
A very large manufactory would be required in London for
the business to be carried on in the metropolis alone—other ma-
nufactories might be established in the large maritime towns of
the United Kingdom, or licenses might be granted to residents
in such towns upon terms to be settled by the Company. At
present the square tower and adjoining premises east of Wa.
terloe-bridge, on the Surrey side, are used for the purpose. In-
dividuals desirous of embarking in the Company may see the
machinery at work daily, and satisfy themselv4s of the immense
capabilities and great probable profits of the undertaking.
The capital may be expanded or eontracted as may bo expedi-
ent, and nw public Company, whether large or small, can fail in
profitably employing its money. The business may be carried
on with 5,0001. successfully, though ton or twenty times that
amount would create a much more than proportionate return.
Sixteen patents have been granted by foreign Powers, but
it is not proposed to include them in this Company.
The Standing Orders of Parliament have been complied with,
and a Bill in the present Session may be expected.to be passed,
authorising the transfer of the patent to more than twelve per-
sons, and empowering the Company by Act of Parliament.
Should all the Shares not be taken before the passing of the
Act, the Company will go on with such capital as shall have
been subscribed ; but no further Shares be issued after the
passing of the Act save at a premium, for the benefit of the
original Shareholders, who shall have the pre-emptlon of claim-
ing them at such premium.
Application for Shares may be made to E. M. Elderton,
Esq., Solicitor, 40, Queen-square, 13loomsbury ; or W. H.
Taylor, Esq., the Patentee, at the Manufactory.

The PATENT DRY GAS METER has b,.-en tested and

working by the slightest possibly pressure; and to show that
the correctness anti accuracy of its measurement may at all
times be depended upon, it is only requisite to mention that the
Gas Fittings are not insured by the impregnated water with
which the Water Meters are charged, and that the severest
frost will not effect it ; so that the Patent Dry Meter is emi-
nently calculated to surpass any other hitherto produced.

illustrated by striking cases, accompanied with full and explicit
directions for au effectual and speedy cure, with ease, secrecy,

Disease, in both sexes, including Gonorrhoea, Gleets, Se-
condary Symptoms, Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Deficiency,
and all Diseases of the Urinary Passages, without loss of time,
confinement, or hindrance from business ; they have effected
the most surprising cures, not only in recent and severe cases,
but when salivation and all other means have failed.

It is a mclanchaly fact that thousands fall victims to this
horrid disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men,
who, by the use of that deadly poison, mercury, ruin the con-
stitution, cause ulceration, blotches en the head, face, and body,
dimness of sight, noise in the ears, deafness, obstinate gleets,
nudes on the shin bones, ulcerated sore throats, diseased nose,
with nocturnal pains in the head and limbs, till, at length, a
general debility and decay of the constitution ensues, and a me-
ancholy death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings.
Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, may be consulted at No.
4, Great Charles-street, Birmingham, and 44, Albion-stree!,
Leeds. Only one personal visit is required from a country
patient, to give such advice as will be the means of effecting a
permanent. and cifcctul cure, after all other means have proved
ineffectual.

Letters for advice must be post. paid, and contain the usual
fee of one pound.
PERRY'S CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is intended
to relievo those persons who, by an immoderate indulgence of
their passions, have ruined their constitution, or in their way to
the consummation of that deplorable state are affected with
any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the
various affections of the nervous system, obstinate sleets, invo-
luntary emissions, excesses, irregularity, oh-tructions of certain
evacuations, weakness, total incompetency, barrenness, &c. A
parscverancc in its use has been the happy means of relieving
many thousands, and •f restoring a great number to the per-
manent enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in
all disorders of the d gestive organs, and is especially recom-
mended to those who, from the irregularities of you; hful age,
habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure, have faller
into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of
symptoms commonly denominated the nervous. In such per-
sons the mental ars not less enfeebled than the corporeal
powers, and to them a remedy that acts with etlicacv, without
interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable.

POLITICAL SUIII3IIARY OF TIIE

MORNING PAPERS.

From an unusual press of matter we are compelled to
I restrict ourselves to a brief summary of the contents of
the leading articles in the Morning Papers of this day.
The Times, speaking of Lord Stanley's Irish Registration
Bill and Mr. O'Connell's determined crposition to it,
says :—" needs no prophet •o assure us that this
well-
considered Bill must pass. Tho reign of O'Connell over
the people of Ireland has been established on peefidy and
depravity. It is about to be subverted by justice and tair-
dua!ing. Who can wonder that the tyrant shudders at the
name of Lord Stanley, and cannot utter it without en exe-
cration:" The Morning Chronicle observes, with refer-
ence to Lord Stanley 'a Bill :_'• Again and again we
intreat the British prblic not to suffsr thernselve,
to be duped by the professions of Tory legislators
and the titles of Tory Bills. The Bill in question
is entitled a Registration Bill. That title is ahe ! he
Bili is a Bill of disfranchisement, and nothing else. It is
a measure expressly concocted to co-operate with the system
of extermination going forward with cruel rapidity in Ire-
land, to bring about a re3toration of the execrable Orange
sway." The Morning Post thus alludes to the same ob.
noxious Bill Lord Stanley's calm and guarded perse-
verance will succeed, and to him will belong much of the
honour and credit of abating the foulest nuisance which
now invades the purity and honesty of the representation of
tile people in the House of Commons." The Morning
Herald, in a leading article on the subject of the approach-
ing East Surrey Election, remarks as follows :—" The
Thames must flaw back on its source, before the current of pc)•
litical feeling in East Surrey runs in a Whig-Radical chars_
yell. ' The Melling Advertiser has the following remarks on
the subject of our Eastern policy :—" The glorious vic-
tories achieved on the Syrian coast, and the final settle-
ment of the differences which existed between Turkey
and Egypt, have fully justified the confidence whit h we
placed in the ability of the Noble Lord at the head of the
Foreign Department, and in the good sense of his col-
leagues in entertaining and giving support to his views.
The setil2ment in question, upon the basis originally pro-
posed by the Powers, parties to the Treaty of July 15, may
new be raid to have insured the general peace, and re-
stored the balance of power, by establishing the integrity
and independence of a vital element of it. Nor has the mode
in which this has been effected by the surrender of the
Turkish fleet, and the good faith with which the Sultan
has acted, in confirming the Viceroy in the hereditary
pachalic of Egypt, at the instigation of the Four Poweit,
left any room to lselievc that the settlement which has been
ffacted will be disturbed by any more reservstioi,s or pro-
tests, on the part of either the disagreeing or consenting
parties. The rapid success of our alms would have
seemed unaccountable, had not the sympathies of the
Mahomedan population of Syria gone along with them,
and in this also, though much deprecated at the time,
the event justified the completion of thy Qaedruple
Treaty, at the moment when the Syrian insurrection
broke out. No means could have been better pro-
portioned to the end, nor could any have been used
which gave era cause to other Powers to dread eggran-
d.zement or corquest. Neither has there been the least cause,
throughout the whole warfare, of incurring any risk of the
European equilibrium by calling in the aid of a Russian
army. On this ground especially Ministers may fairly
take credit for not having disturbed the peace of Europe,
by attempting an object with which they were not prepared
to grapple. But it would seem, from recent speeches,
that it was improper as a matter of foreign policy to have
undertaken the restoration of the independence of the
Turkish empire at all. According to Mr. Grote and
Mr. Ilume, the settlement of the Eastern question,
or, in other words, the preventing of Constantinople
and the trident of the sea from passing into 'i.e v
hands, was not an object of such importance to England
as the aid and alliance of France. The plain fact is, that
if the Four Powers had not interfered in the affairs of
Turkey, Russia would have interfered of her own accord,
and for selfish purposes, and that the former, instead of
being, as she now is, a main element in the balance of
European Powers, would have been prostrate at tho feet
of the latter. Whether this was, or was not, a desirable
object—whether prevention was not batter than care—and
whether the. Ministry is not entitled to the gratitude, not
only of England, but of all Europe, for having prevented
war, and sown the seeds of peace, and of the civilisation
and peace which naturally spring out of it—we leave our
readers, Tory, Whig, and Radical, to judge."

MUNE Y MARK ET and CITY NEWS

(WEDNESDAY EVENING.)
TIM E S.—By the letters from Manchester it appears
that the last advices from New York have had some in.
fluence in checking the rising activity in the power-loom
goods market. All descriptions of goods which were par-
t.cularly adapted to the consumption of the United States
have become nearly unmstkotable, and some orders given
out on contract a short time back have been counter-
manded. For Turkey and Greece, which are chiefly sup-
plied with hand-loom gods, the demand was fully kept
up. The complaints of a scarcity of money seem to have
ceased, and to insure tha full development of that pros-
perous trade, of which the indications have been so mani.
teat for some time past, nothing appears to be wanting but
a steady well-regulated currency, so that merchants might
pr.scced with their operations without fear of being under-
mined by some of the " stringent" operations, which f.
arc aide to discern before they actually take place, of the
Bank of England. If such a state of things could be es.
tablished, the teirporary cessation of the demand from any
one quarter could hardly be referred to, as it has been in
the present accounts, as an event of any impertance.
A large parcel (about 40,0004) of Consols for money
was sold by the Government broker in the course of the
day, which, by enhancing the value of money, depressed
the market. The sale is said to have been cut cf the
Savings'-bank Stock, but for the purposes of the G.,vern-
ment.

POST.—The at'empt made to-day to put the kiln•
dried tea, forming the cargo of the Westminster, sunk off
Margate, up to auction, was resisted by the trade. The
attendance was numerous, and the conduct of Govern-
ment in authorising the sale of a damaged article of this
description, was comm;:nted upon by several gentlemen in
a manner that was by no means complimentary to them.
The trade were very properly determined not to allow the
damaged commodity to find its way among the retailers,
and the intended imposition upon the consumer was reluc-
tantly abandoned amidst a storm of vociferation expressive
of the feeling of the dealers.
The auctioneer was interrogated as to the arrangement
entered into between the consignees, or importing houses,
and Government, respecting the duty to be paid on this
cargo. H.: was, however, not prepared to giv„; au infor-

HE RALD.—The Funds declined again from the sligi.t
rally of yesterday, and Consols closed at 89k for Money,
and 89k for Account. The more immediate cause corn.
monly assigned for this decline was a sale of 40,000/. Money
Consols on Savings'-banks account by the ,Government
broker, The amount is entirely insignificant, for it is no
more than what a broker in moderate business might be
ca►led upon to do in ordinary times, but the operation is
otherwise significant. It has been observed on various oc-
casions of late, and since it was well uuderstocsd the Treasury
was pressed for means extra of the supply Bills voted last
Session, that the Savings'-bank Fund has born made free
with by sales on Government account, and it is gathered from
these indications as probable that, rather than resort to a
lean to cover the large deficit which must exist betwixt
revenue and expenditure, the Treasury people are man-
ceuvring to raise the wind gradually by making free with
the funds of the Savings'-banks. The deficiency daily
growing and pressing upon the Exchequer as the claims
pour in, not of the present year alone but of past year',
night have been met by the issue of that class of Exche-
quer I3ills, notoriously enough known as " Deficiency
Bills," but the fact is that the Exchequer Bill market
has long been in too weak a condition, vibrating as it
is and has been between a small premium and abso-
lute discount, to admit of such an operation. There_
fore it is that the Savings'-banks, which should be a
fund ❑ever broken in upon, or if at all only when
some positive advantage is found to accrue both to the
Government and to the management of those institutions,
is resorted to in moments of pressure by financiers like
those of the present time, whose greatest anxiety and gra-
tification it is to put off the day of reckoning to the most
distant date possible, so that departmental estimates and
budgets should not shock the " ears " economic if rot
" polite " of the Commons' House until the latest period
practicable in the Session. Bills and balances of ac.
count of Canadian expenditure arising out of the insurrec-
tions in Lower and Upper Canada have poured in already
to the extent of 500,0001. or 600,000/ , a large portion
of which is to bo provided for over and above the
expenditure otherwise taken into more exact estimate
in last year's financial takings, and this large amount,
which is believed to bo a good deal below the sum total
of damage of which all the bills of parcels have yet to be
delivered, properly appertains in great part to, and should
appioximatively have been met and covered so far as
possible by votes of credit and appropriation two years
ago, instead of being lcowly left to find their way against
the Exchequer at any time, and finally to be paid off by
recourse to the usual draft upon the Bank against en issue
of " Deficiency Bills." Sonic small portion of the bills
of pascals for Syrian and Chinese, if not for East Indian,
glories must by this time be making their appearance also at
the Treasury, in the shape of commissariat and other drafts,
but where practicable it will be an object within the usual
policy of the financial people to stave off the bulk of these
accounts, so as to throw them past budget delivery, in
which case the present year's burden might be eased in ap-
pearance, but after all at the expense of the next. Alto-
gether it may be confidently taken for granted that finan-
cial affairs arc in no very enviable position, and that the
Chancellor of the Exchequer would not be greatly con-
cerned if the ensuing Easter holidays, previous to the
awful moment of budget delivery, could be indefinitely pro-
longed to something nearer the epoch known as the Greek
Kalends.

SUN.—The English Stocks are uffected by an in-
creased demand for money, and by the exertions of the
jobbers to keep the market in their favour, in case of a
new loan. For immediate transfer, Consols brought
S9i to 894, being if per cent. lower than yesterday, and
for time S9i. The market closed rather heavily. Ex-
chequer Bills were at 3s. to Gs. premium, and India
