A Joint-stock Company has been formed, and provisionally
registered, under the above title, for carrying on a general dis-
count business.
The circumstances of the times are peculiarly favourable to
the establishment of such a company, and the commercial
exigencies of the country require it.
Tho foreign trade alone of the United King,dom has trebled
itself within the last 25 years, the exports which, in the year
1832, amounted to 32,000,0001., baring, in the year 1854,
risen to over 97, 00,0001. The home trade has received a
proportionate impetus and development, and the aggregate
transactions of the country, in exchangeable products, have
multiplied to an extent which it is difficult to estimate,
whilst the monetary facilities for carrying on these transac-
tions have not kept pace with this rapid and gigantic in.
Crease.

A company, which, from its ample resources, offers addi- '
tional facilities for commercial operation, will, it is believed,
be favourably received by the trading community, and prove
a useful auxiliary to the banking establishments throughout
the kiugdom, at the same time affording to all classes a safe
and remunerative investment, either permanent or tempo-
rary, for their surplus funds.
The principles on which the company is based aro simple
and fam;liar.
The foundation is a large subscribed capital, of which a con-
siderable proportion will be at once paid up, aired money will
be received on deposit upon terms of repayment to be spe-
cially agreed with the depositors ; these means will be em-
ployed in discounting, and in loans on approved securities.
The Company will not open drawing accounts with their
customers, nor act, in any respect, as a bank.
The capital is to be 1,000,0001., divided into 40,000 shares
of 251. each, upon which a deposit of
,5/. per share shall be
paid, on the acceptance of the letters of allotment. Power
will be taken by the deed to increase the capital to 2,000,0001.,
with the assent of three-fourths of the proprietors, specially
convened.
It will be the duty of the Directors to select a General Ma-
nager, whose ability and experience will assure to the share-
holders and the public a vigilant and prudent administration.
The Company is constituted within the provisions of the
Limited Liability Aet.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
se maces resulting from certain habits, Irregularities, and excesses,
w "itch have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hexi, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
I o eta class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
p rticularly recommended to persons en•ertaining secret doubts of
I their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazardea
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
en itic d _. .

It Is absolutely necessary that all man should know, that there are
„.tinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without

PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris is
about 4 per mills premium (according to the last tariff),
which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10d. per
ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.27 ;
and, the exchange at Paris on London at short being
25.35, it follows that gold is about 0.32 per cent. dearer
in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg
the price of gold is 4261 per mark, which, at the English
Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold,
gives an exchange of 13.56 ; and, the exchange at Ham-
burg on London at abort being 13.7, it follows that gold
is 0.64 per cent. dearer in London than in Hainburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London for
bills at 60 days' sight is 108 A per cent, and, the
par of exchange between England and America being
109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is nomi-
nally 1.08 per cent. against England; but, after making
allowance for charges of transport and difference of in-
terest, the present rate leaves no profit on the transmis-
sion of gold either way between the two countriee.
