Yesterday a special general meeting was held at the
offices, Moorgate-street, to consider whether the com•
pany should be dissolved and a new one formed ; J. M.
Riddell, R•q., in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN observed that since the last meeting it
was upon consultation considered better to have a deed
of a.signment to the prese:lt directors, as trustees in
trust to form a new company, to carry out the resolu-
tions then proposed for dissolving the present one. He
had been assured that if it was brought out under the
Joint-Stock Companies Act, 1856, it would be very de-
trimental to the interest of the shareholders, as shares
could not be transferred except by stamps f deed. It
was, therefore, intended to re-form the company under
the present charter, with a capital of 40,0001., in 40,000
shares-25,000 to be ordinary shares and 15,000 pre•
ferential, to bear interest at 101. per cent. ; one ordinary
share to be given for every five shares in the old com
pany, and the holders of every 25 scrip to be compelled
to take one preference share, upon which ss. should be
paid on allotment, ss. in April, ss. in July, and ss. in
October. _

A lengthened discussion bavinr, ensued, the motion
was eventually carried. Some formal bu4iness having
been transacted, the proceedings terminated iu the usual
manner.

is to introduce to his readers some new discovery calculated
to benefit that vast portion of our fellow-creatures which
has the strongest claims upon our' sympathies. It is with
this feeling that we call the attention of invalids to the
following extracts from Du Barry's interesting Repert, of
Cures without medicine of Indigestion (Dyspepsia), Flatulency,
Constipation, Nervous, Bilious, and Liver complaints, Cough,
Asthma, Consumption, and Debility, by Du Barry's Reva-
