LOCOM O T I V E STEAM•CARRIAGE
COMPANY
FOR PASSENGERS AND PARCELS ON TURNPIKE-ROADS.

At a preliminary Meeting, held at the offices of Mr. 11. English, 25,
Fleet-street, it was resolved—
That a Company be formed, with a capital of 200,0001., divided into
20,000 shares, *llOl. each.
That, In the first instance, the call be limited to Is. per share, as
required by the Joint-Stock Companies Registration Act, and that
the subscribers be not held responsible beyond the pa) ment of such
sum, which, it is assumed, will be amply sufficient for the purpose
of obtaining the most conclusise evidence of the practicability of
adopting steam-carriages on common roads.
That no shareholder be called upon to pay any sum whatever until
a general meeting be held, when the views and reports of the projec-
tors will be laid before the meeting, and when they will have the op-
portunity of withdrawing from the Company, or paying the instal-
men,, as before provided
A Provisional Committee is appointed, who will convene a meeting
of the Shareholders on the whole of the Shares being subscribed for,
when the call of Is. per share will be required.
No expenses will be incurred beyond those absolutely necessary
for determining the practicability of the object, and every informa-
tion will be afforded on application at the offices of the Honorary Se-
cretary.

Application for shares, on the above terms—no eum being required
until the whole of the shires are subscribed for, and then only Is. per
share, with an undertaking that no further liability is incurred
without the assent of the subscribing party—to be addressed to the
Honorary Secretary, Mr. 11. English; or to the Solicitor, Mr. F.
Herbert.

One-third of the shares being already subscribed for, no applies•

ANOTHER ENLARGEMENT.
OF TIIE
NIT EEKLY DISPATCH
This Journal at present the largest in existence—un-
,iyallecl for its early intelligence and uneompromishig advoci.ey of

SIXTEEN PAGES,

SIXTY-FOUR COLUMNS,

SAME SIZE AND FORM AS AT PRESENT, WITHOUT

By its zeal in the cause of progress, and its staunch de' Dtion to
the interests of the People, the DISPATCH has become a terror to
the upholder of abuse?, and a powerfal auxiliary en behalf of the
oppressed, whose wrongs will always meet with sympathy and
xposure.

Encouraged by their success, and anxioes to extend the sphere of
their Political Influence and Social Utility, the Proprietors have re-
solved on the proposed Enlargement of the DISPATCH, which here-
after will answer the purpose of
FOUR NEWSPAPERS,

and thus accommodate four readers at one and the same time.

The columns of the DISPATCH will still continuo to be enriched
by the powerfUl contributions of
" PUBLICOLA." " CAUSTIC," " CENSORIUS," ELIZA COOK,
and other writers eminently distinguished for their literary attain-
ments, and whose opinions have ever advocated the cause of the
People, in opposition to tyranny and injustice. It may also be ob-
served, that the POOR MAN will always receive LEGAL ADVICE
and assistance, as heretofore, from the DISPATCH.

A beautiful New Type has been cast, on which the DISPATCH

111 next year be printed.
Advertisers are respectfully requested to forward their Advertise-
ments on or before Friday Afternoon, otherwise no attention can be
