GENTLgMEN,
IBEG to return thy-- Ni,ainiest thanks to those 1,247
independent electors,Whe have done me the honour to vote far
ree at the late election. lam perfectly at a loss to account for the
sznallness of the nuMber of _votes.which I have polled, since on my
'canvass 1 received upwards_ 0f,1,500 promises, besides assurances of
support in case of need, from many ethers..
We have iri the *sent instance sustained a defeat : this, how-
ever, ought not to discourage.you, but rather to excite you to fresh
!zertions, since the cause in which you are engaged is just, and one
In which, if you persevere, you must. ultimately triumph.
I have the honor to be, Gentlewn,
Your obliged and faithful servant,
WILLIAM HANBURY.

the Newspapers of Thursday last, and I lose no time in writing to
Tell to express my sense of gratitude for the general opinion math.
Tested in the Court of Proprietors as to my services in India.
Whatever feelings I may entertain as to the justice of my claims
for reimbursement of a loss, I can assure you with truth that any
ant even on, that account would be deprived of its value by a di-
vided vote on die question. I beg, therefore, to decline availing
leyself of the vote should the result of the Ballot, to be taken on
the 231 instant, decide in favour of the grant.
Signed)

RIGHT'S HOTEL, 36, DOVER-
STREET, PICCADILLY.
Charles Wright (late of the Ship Hotel, Dover) has the honour
10 inform his patrons, the 'nobility, gentry, and those friends who
honoured him AN ith their support at Dover, that he has taken that
SPLENDID MANSION, 36, Dover-street, Piccadilly, the late
l'ftidence of the Right Hon. Lord Ducie (immediately contiguous
Itt the Russian Ambassador's), which he has fitted up for the re-
eeeption of noblemen, gentlemen, and families of distinction, with
every appropriate elegance, accommodation, and comfort. The
suites of apartments are large and airy, commanding, on the
northern and western sides, uninterrupted views of the gardens of
Ills Grace the Duke of Devonshire and the Marquis of Lansdowne,
'Deering a combination of salubrity and quietude not to be excelled
:by any establishmnt of the kind in town. Le Cuisinier is of Mons.
Ude's nomination,e and the cellars of the most approved merchants
have been diligently searched for their choicest Wines. A careful
attention to these particulars, united with moderate charges and the
advantages his house possesses, induces C. Wright respectfully to
solicit from the nobility and gentry a continuation of those favours
Ile has hitherto received, and to merit which his most strenuous
'exertions shall be used.

THE CALAMITOUS EFFECTS of FIRE,
• and the dreadful consequences which have recently attended
cannot fail to excite the feelings of every thinking mind. J.
READ begs to inform the public, that after 50 years experience in
the study of Hydrostatics, and the Laws of Fluids, he has invented
Ydraulic 'Machines of various dimensions and power, from a Garden
*yr.n.,ge to the most powerful Fire Engine, more simple, portable,
'Powerful, and,darable, titan any think of the kind ever offered to
the public. (See Mechanic's Magazine, No. 645, Dec. 19, 1535.)
These Machines are adapted for every purpose of Horticulture, from
an instrument that may be used by a single hand to that of a power-
ul that may. be worked by ten or twelve able men. It is
Worthy of a place in every Village, Mansion, or Factory, where
there is danger of fire.
Manufactured only by the Patentee, 35, Regent-circus, Picca-
dilly, where all the above Machines may be seen and proved.
N.B.—None are• genuine' except stamped with the words
