By CHARLES LAMB.
Laffib's Tales from Shakspeare are well known as forming
one of the most charming children's books in the language.
They are conceived in a spirit of simplicity, and yet with so
shrewd a feeling of the power and beauty of the original, as was
perhaps possible to no other mind than that of Elia. They have
arrived at a Fifth Edition, which is very prettily got up, and is
adorned with woodcuts from designs by Harvey."—Spectator,
August.
One of the very best works that ever issued from the press
for the delight and instruction of young people. The Vignettes
are quite admirable for delicacy and fancy ; and if some of the
illustrations in this work be not historical pictures, we know not
what the words mean."—Athenaeum, July 30, 1831.

STOMACH COMPLAINTS.

DR. HENDERSON'S STOMACHIC
VEGETABLE ELlXlR.—Having suffered se-
verely from Stomach complaints, Dr. Ilendemin was led
to turn his attention to the study of the subject. To the
use of this medicine, when all others had failed, he and
many others are indebted for complete exemption from
pain, and restoration to health. To those whose bowels
are habitually slow, and require the occasional use of loca-
tives, and for general family use, it has a decided advantage
over all other medicines ; inasmuch as it is safe, pleasant
to the taste, and will appease the stomach when nothing
else will rest upon it ; and never loses its power o the same
quantity always produces the same effect. It may also be
mixed with food or drink of any kind, without oppressing
the stomach, or losing the salutary effect on the bowels. It
has been tried in every possible vsriety of stomach

South Lambeth, Dec, 13, 1831,

A plan of a very plausible character, to say the least of
it. has been submitted, we are informed, to the Govern-
ment, the object of which plan is to liberate them from
their connection with the Bank of England, and to save
the nation several hundred thousands per annum. It is
added that this scheme has been seriously considered by,
Ministers, but whether they will attempt to carry it into ef-
fect is doubtful. It is proposed, on the expiration of the
charter of the Bank of England, that that Corpora'ion
shall be considered only as the bankers of the State fur
the deposit of the public balances, and for the managethent
of the public debt The whole of the Government Funds
and Exchequer 13]1 now held by the Bank, excluding the
Bank Stock, which amounts to sixteen millions sterling, is
proposed to be redeemed by an issue of Government notes,
to be called 'Stock notes. The effect of this measure
would he the saving of about four per cent. per annum on
the sixteen millions (or 640,000/.) which they now pay
to the Bank for the advances that establishment make on
Pension Annuities and Exchequer Bills. Many persons
in the city have long considered something of the kind as
perfectly practicable, and that it is absurd to pay the Bank
an interest of 610,0001. per year for manufacturing a few
notes, which might just as well be manufactured and cir-
culated by the Treasury. For our part, we think the thing
well worthy of consideration.
We believe it was proposed by Mr. H. Drummond,
some years ago, as a means of effectually controlling the
issues of the Bank, that the major part of their circulation
should consist of 15 millions, to be under the guaranty of
the Treasury and the Balk, and to be issued and exchanged
by the Bank for a charge of one-half per cent. per annum,
and not to be convertible into specie. It was then pro.
posed that the remainder of the notes issued by the Bank
on discount of bills of exchange should always be con-
vertible into specie, and that the Bank should be com-
pelled to deliver a quarterly balance-sheet of their accounts
to the Treasury, for publication in the London Gazette.
It is said that the recent publication of the revenue ac-
counts, and particularly that issued by the Commissioners
for the Reduction of the National Debt, were intended as
a sort of foundation on which Ministers will propose to
Parliament the propriety of a tax on property. This affair
has been a good deal talked of, we understand, among the
Members who arrived in London at the latter end of last
week. Some say that the scheme proposes a graduated
income tax, the highest per tentage being 10 or 12i per
cent. It is added that the proposal of this tax will b,
contemporary with the repeal of part of the assessed taxes,
and some others which press heavily on internal industry.
