IMPOSTURE UNMASKED.
THE'progregs of Merit, although frequently
assailed, is not impeded by Envy and Detraction. The
t?grassion of Ambuscade terminates in Defeat—and conscious
;_l
ectitude ultimately triumphs in the attainment of the grand
bject—Public Approbation. The test of Experience is the
parantee of Favour, and has Established WARREN'S
LACKING in general Estimation, of which there exists not
4 strongezproof than the tacit acknowledgment of a host of
servile imitators, who surreptitiously obtrude on the unwary a
bPurious Preparation as the genuine Article, to the great dis.
IVPointment of the unguarded Purchaser, and manifest injury
1.4 Warren, whose character and interest by this iniquitous
rn
4,lte are equally subject to detriment. It becomes therefore
44 indispensable duty to CAUTION the PUBLlCagainst the
I.4shauvras of Unprincipled Venders, who, having no charac.
'Cr to lose, and stimulated by avarice in their nefariousyur-
litits, aim at the acquisition of money through any medium
?Ail that of honour. The original and matchless Blacking
bears on each Bottle a short direction, with the 'signathre—
ROBERT WARREN.

AU others are Counterfeits ; and in many instances the im-
4WD:I kbels are artfully interliaed with a different Address,
In very small characters, between the more conspicuous ones of
" No. 30," and " STRAND." It is earnestly recommended
to Shopkeepers and others who are deceived by base Fabrica-
tions of Warren's Blacking, to return the detected Trash to
the source whence it came, and expose the machinations of
taiscality to merited obloquy.
Warren's Blacking rs surprisingly brilliant : it excludes
damp, gives pliancy to the leather, retains its pristine virtue in
Al climates, and, combining elegance with comfort, is an article
equally of indispensable, fashion and utility. • Sold by every
respectable Vender in Town and Country, in bottles, at 6d,
10d, 12d, and Ifid, each.

COMMON COUNCIL.

A Court of Common Council was held yester-
day at Guildhall for general husinets.
The Committee for managing Subscriptions for the relief
of the distressed Col(Mists at the Cape of Good Hoppe, pre-
sented a memorial requesting a donation in'aid of that sub-
scription, which was referred to the Committee for general
purposes.
The Bridge House Committee delivered in a Report on con-
sidering the Bills in Parliament for the proposed St. Katherine's
and the South London Docks, in which they recommended the
Court to oppose the same.
A considerable discussion took place on the motion to agree
witk the Report; and an Amendment was moved—" Except
so much thereof as related to the proposed Docks at St. Katha-
rine's," which was agreed to.
The Finance Committee reported that they had received a
communication from 3lr. Alderman \Wood, stating that certain
individuals had offered to lend the Corporation a sufficient sum
of money at 41. per cent. to discharge the several public debts
in respect of the Orphans' Fund, the Thames Navigation Ac-
count, and the Coal-Market Fund, amounting to upwards of
G 42,000/. which are now hearing an interest of 51. per cent.,
which offer the Committee were of opinion should be accepted,
and that an application should be made to Parliament for an
Act authorising the raising such monies and charging the same
on those respective funds accordingly.
The Court,. after a short discussion, agrded, with the Report.,
and directed Petitions to be immediately presented to Parlia-
ment for leave to bring in a Bill for effecting this important
purpose, and the Committee were empowered to prosecute the
Petition as they should be advised.
