This Company is formed for Paving the Metropolis, and
twenty miles round. Specimens of the principle have been
laid down at Whitehall, Buckingham Palace, and Oxford-street,
where 2,000 yards more are commenced. The principle is a
new section of the cube. The Blocks are cut across the grain,
' at an angle of 6:1 degrees 26 minutes 5 seconds and 8-10ths of a
second, which causes the diagonal joining of the obtuse angles of
the two parallelopipedes to fall ;n a perpendicular straight line,
which, laid down obliquely, gives to a surface, perpetually even,
all the stroilgth of an arch.
The streets of London alone comprise 6,000,000 square
yards, and are kept in repair at an annual expense of 300,000/.
The profits of the Company will be derived from the original
laying down of the Pavement, each million of ,square yards
yieldirig. 150,000/. profit--,,and also ;from keeping their pave-
., ment in repair, which on a moder..te calculation will amount
-to 60,0001. per annum—at the same time effecting a saving of
•: one-half of the' Paving-rates to the several parishes. The pre-
sent orders received by the Company amount to 30,000/. Ne-
gotiations ,are pending for other works to a great extent.
Meetings have been held at Liverpool and Manchester. at
which, after the principles of the Woo(' Pavement were ex-
plained, Resolutions were unanimously, passed, approving of
the scientific principle adopted by the Aletropolitan, Patent
'Wood Pavement Company, and strongly recommending its ge-
neral use.
Application has since been made to the Inventor for perunis,
tion to lay down a quarter of a mile in length at Manchester,
and the work will commence forthwith.
Application for Shares to be addressed to the •Seeretary, 20,
John-street, Melphj, where.prospect.us may lift obtained.

VITILKINSON'S ANTI - CORROSION
PAINT.
•
REMOVED from 63, Upper Thames-street, to
' 54, WATLING-STREET, near Queen-street, Cheapside.
3. 11. WILKINSON particularly recommends his Paint to
• t the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, wbo wish to paint their
14, Louses of Roman cement, stucco, or brick walls, as a preven-
tive to damp er fea spray in exposed situations; it will net
blister or peel off as common paint. On tiling, to represent
dating, iron hurdles, roofs, conservatories, hot-houses, fences,
farm, or any out-buildings, it will last four times as long as
mammon paint. It is so simple in its use, that any labourer
call lay it on. To ship-owners for their decks, bottoms of ves••
sels, ire., it Till be shown, as well as to the public, to be supe-
rior to any paint in use, by testimonials of its lasting fourteen
years on wood and houses, twenty years on iron (see the South-
wark-bridge). The public are particularly guarded in giving
their orders for Wilkinson's Anti-Corrosion Paint, that no
ether colour may be imposed upon them for his. A liberal
alloy/Mice to the trade.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION.
MESSRS. SLOAN and CO., Members of
the Royal College of Surgeons, 4, A ItGYLL-PL ACE,
REGENT-STREET, and 28, IRONMONGER-LANE,
CIIEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the
Atorning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and seeresy 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 two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
"ll, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility,
Pouorrlicea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva-
lent, are treated upon those unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. sol. 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
4.1 patients, however distant, will be corresponded with until
recovered.

possesses a control over the urgent symptoms of Gonorrhcea, rlieving
the discharge and mitigating the seal,: ing in making water, that I
Lave not observed in the usual methods of exhibiting Copaiba. In
one instan:e only did it disagree with the stomach ; but in this it
seemed to depend rather on the method of exhibition than on the re..

objection was at once obviated, and the patient got well in ten days
