This Company is projected for the purposo of organizing a system,
upon which the iniportation of Cattle and Provisions from the Con-
tinent of Europe, or elsewhere, may he carried on more extensively'
and economically than it can be by individual spemlation. The bu-
siness of the Company will be primarily that of importing Cattle, Sheep,
and Provisions from Holland, Denmark, Germany, %pain, Portugal,
Scotland, and any other country which presents a favourable mar-
ket; and attention will also be directed to the purchase of cored and
prepared Provisions, and Dairy, Farm-yard, and Orchard Produce,
when it can be imported with advantage.
The importation of Foreign Cattle for consumption into this coun-
try is still in its infancy ; but the rapid progress which it has already
made, gives ample assurance, not only of the great profit attending
it, but of the existence at once of a demand and supply sufficient to
afford active and lucrative employment for the rescurces of a Public
Company.
The following returns are extracted from the Official Reports of
the Board of Trade, made up the sth ofJanuary, 1848 :
A Return of Live Animals imported in the years 1845,1846, and 184'

• Tke above Returns exhibit a Trade in which the transactions ap •
pear (from a moderate calculation) to have amounted during the
last year to more than a million and a halt sterling, and to have in-
creased in value five-fold in the short space of two two years. These
results, too, have obtained by the feeble agency and operations of
individual enterprise alone; and if these have been profitable, hew
much more so would be the organized operations of a Public Com-
pany in the same field ?
The advantage which this Company possesses, will not consist
solely in the greater extent of their resources, and the more perfect
agency under their direction, but also in the economy with whieh
their capital will be employed. By proper arrangements with re-
spectable houses abroad, they will be able, with a comparatively
limited capital, to carry on a very extensive scale of importations
from all the productive sources of supply.
Tke Committee have the gratification of announcing that they
have secured most eligible water-aide premises, and that parties of
high character and longstanding abroad, are prepared to enter into
the necessary arrangements with the Company, and to co operate
with 't in realising its anticipations of success in which they warmly
concur.

In addition, the committee would advert to the great facilities
which the progress of steam navigation and railway traffic has at
length afforded for the vigorous and successful conduct of that
branch of internatioaal trade which this Company will carry on. A
constant and expeditious intercourse is now kept up by steam navi-
gation between the ports of London, Yarmouth, flarwieh, Lowes-
toft, Great Grimsby, and Hull, on this side, and the principal ports
of the continent on the ether ; and from the latter railways are
diverging in every direction into the interior of the continent,
through the rich grazing districts of Holland, Hanover, Prussia,
Holstein, and other States of Germany, from which large supplies of
cattle and provisions can thus, at all times, be procured.
As an Act of Parliament will not be required for the incorporation
of the Company, the expenses incurred in its formation will not be
considerable, and the interests of the shareholders will be secured by
a deed of settlement, prepared by counsel, until which time all con-
tracts as to shares will be entered into by and with the secretary only
as a trustee for the Company.
The Company will commence operations as soon as a eompeteit
number of shares are taken, and a sufficient amount paid up to ren-
der it expedient. The Committee have power to increase or diminish
the capital, and to reserve a portion of the shares for allotment at a
future period, if deemed advisable.

BEAUTIFUL TEETH.
R°'LANDS' ODONTO, or PEARL
DENTIFRICE.

A WHITE POWDER compounded of the choicest and most re-
cherche ingredients of the Oriental herbal. It extirpates all tartar-
ous adhesions to the teeth, and ensures a pearl-like whiteness to
the enamelled surface. Its anti-septic and anti-scorbutic properties
exercise a highly beneficial and salutary influence: they arrest the
further progress of decay of the Teeth, induce a healthy action of
the Gums, and by confirming their adhesion to the Teeth, perpetuate
effective and complete mastication ; the breath also, from the salu-
brious and disinfecting qualities of the Odonto, attains a grateful
sweetness and fragrance.

The Proprietors of this Dentifrice pledge themselves that its effi-
cacy in preserving and embellishing the TEETH, far surpasses any-
thing of the kind ever yet offered to the public, and has, in conse-
quence, obtained its selection by her Majesty the Queen, the Court,
and Royal Family of. Great Britain, and the Sovereigns and Nobility
throughout Europe.—Price 2s. 9d. per box.
CAUTION.—To protect the public from fraud, the Hon. Commis-
sioners have directed the Proprietors' name and address thus,
" A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Hatton-garden," to be engraved on
the Government stamp, which is affixed on each box.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
' and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
teed in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused. the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of whieh this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains as accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation •f the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
he possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether aoquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
Tom their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
'requently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
