1.1,,..rs 4yed Safely in India, and will commence plying upon the
without delay. An equal number a vessels of still
zgater power is at present in preparation, and will be sent
u„s as soon as possible.
Lefore embarking in the present undertaking the Directors
ilt2 hot onl y satisfied themselves of its eminently profitable
of LFe but they had secured for it the marked co-operation
t
uelndian Government, by the acquisition of a subsidy;
vv2 vo• `Lfile Government, both b the ..ift of land stations,
.ashops, and depots, of wood for fuel and infor every other
has rendered every possible aid to the present under-
e,xing. At the same time the Directors have insured corn-
Plete exemption from Government control and interference ;
and this is the only Company so distinguished which pos-
sesses any Government support.
The Directors have the satisfaction of finding that not only
the Reports of the Company's servants in India, but the
'Whole concurrent testimony of the advices received from that
country, through whatever channel, completely confirms the
favourable anticipatibns they long since formed of the profit-
able character of the present undertaking. It would be im-
11°saible, however, within the limits of an advertisement, to
,Capitulate the numerous evidences of this truth which the
,Seotors are constantly receiving ; and they content them-
'ves, therefore, with giving the following quotation from a
iccent leading article in the "Times," which shows that simi-
iVnformation had been reaching that paper through its
"-Lan correspondents.
From the Times,' Jan. 29, 1859.
'lt is not only Government but the whole nation that eems
,umiak Any' day during the last year we might haves filled
1:col with the complaints of shipbuilders at the de-
tetue of their trade, owing in a great measure to the happy

of the Russian War. But what do we now hear

about. Month aftermonth they are expecting the steamers that

-"cues our informant, 'the Indian Government had to en-
tage all the freight of six for two trips at a price which would

ill of 350 to the square mile, with an export trade of
1.'000,0000, and an internal trade beyond human calculation.

L',ne Directors have all along felt that neither the vessels
Ivioch they have already sent to India, nor those which they
c„.,,e at present in preparation, could do much to satisfy the
''eat want of Inland Steam Navigation which exists in that
smintry But they have also all along felt that the only safe
Wa •
1.,Y of entering upon such an undertaking was not to rush
into it with sanguine precipitation, but to advance with gra-
-1.4_4 and cautions steps and being dazzled the
-"'Ke prospect of profits, it holds out.without The first steps,by how-
'%'er, having been successfully taken. the whole of the exist-
1g Shares in the Company having been allotted, and being
a' a Premium in the market, and the field being so large as to
tquire a large capital to work it in an efficient manner, the
Jrectors are of opinion that the time is come when the capi-
it of the company may be advantageously increased, and
•eY have, therefore, resolved to raise the capital to half a
Million sterling without delay.
v,;APPlications for the new Shares must be forwarded to the
i"„irco..,for, at the offices of the Company, 9, Billiter-street,
'nu°ll, on or before the 28th day of February next.
A- deposit of two shillings per Share to be made on appli-
cation, and the Bankers' receipt for that amount to be for-
Warded with the application for Shares.
The New Shareholders will stand on precisely the same
terms as the Original Shareholders, and will participate in
the dividend as soon as it is payable.
Calls will not be more* frequent than once every three
Months nor for more than £2 per share, at any one time. Five
per cent. will be paid upon all calls until the dividend is de-
clared, and upon all payments in advance of calls.

Member of the London hospital Medical Society. Sm.
An erroneous impression exists that public announcements
eiLl these disorders emanate only from unqualified persons,
but as the new Medical Act provides that nonebut registered
practitioners shall assume any medical title, those that are
egally qualified can readily be distinguished—a point of great
importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are
equally requisite.
In the new edition of Self-Preservation,' facts of para-
Mount utility are brought together—facts appealing. to the
Prudence of all who are suffering from affections which in-
volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers
without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and sinks to
the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation.
In cases where the vital essences have been weakened by the
influences of tropical climates, by pernicious habits. indiscri-
minate excesses, improper diet,' hardship, or by injudicious
treatment, the means of cure adopted by the author, in con-
junction with the application of Local Galvanism, have gene-
rally been found successful, even in cases where recovery had
been pronounced impossible.
