TO TICS is hereby given, that by an Act of the
4th and sth Wm. IV., cap. 54, all Persons assessed for
their Taxes for the Year 1834, ended sth April, 183 h, and all
Persons who began to keep any taxable Articles in the Year 1834,
ending sth April, 1835, or any additional number thereof, may
Compound for the same under the provisions of the said Act, for
the Term of Five Years, to commence from the said sth of April,
1835, on payment of an additional Duty of 5 per cent.
And all Persons whose Compositions terminated on the sth of
April, 1835, may renew their former Compositions for the like
Term of Five Years. to commence from the same period, on the
following conditions (that is to say) on payment of an additional
Duty of 5 per cent., if such Persons have not increased their
Establishments upon which their Compositions were made, to such
an extent that the Duties chargeable thereon under an Assessment
would exceed by more than one-fourth the total amount of the sum
now payable; and on payment of an additional Duty of lOper cent.,
if such Persons shall have increased their Establishment, so that
the Duties chargeable thereon would not exceed double the sum
payable under their former ContraCts.—And in case such Persons
shall have increased their Establishment, so that the Duties charge-
able thereon would amount to more than double the sum, then their
Contracts cannot be renewed, but they may Compound de novo,
on the greatest number of Articles for which they shall be assessed
for the Year, to commence from the sth April, 1835, on payment
of the additional Duty of 5 per Cent. In cases, however, where
parties reduced their Establishments a month before sth of April
last, with a view to an Assessment on such reduced Establishment,
for the year commencing 6th April. 1835, such persons cannot
compound on such Assessment, but only on a return of the great-
est number of Articles kept at any time in the year ended sth cf
April, 1835.
And all such persons so Compounding or renewing their Compo-
sition as aforesaid, shall be freed from all further charges during
the said Term.

By the said Act, Persons desirous of Compounding or renewing
their Compositions, were required to give notice of their intention
in that respect, before the sth April, 1835 ; but the time for giv.:
ing notice, has, by an Act passed on the 9th inst., been extended
to the Ist October, 1835, and all Persons who may omit to give
notice of such their intention, on or before that day, will be totally
precluded from availing themselves of the said Acts.
All Persons desirous to compound or renew their, Composition,
may receive the proper Forms on application to the Assessors of
Taxes in the Parishes in which such Persons may reside.

The lands, part of which are let upon lease, are in a high state
of cultivation. The works lie on the margin of the Leven, well
known for the purity of its water. From the great outlay made
in rendering the filters suitable for the purposes of the field—from
the extent, convenience, and suitableness of the buildings—from the
very ample complement of machinery, utensils, and copper, toge-
ther with the acknowledged superiority of the workmanship pro-
duced, there is no establishment at present for sale in the kingdom
equal to it in general capabilities of production. The weeks have
within a few years past been extensively remodelled, and in many
parts rebuilt, combining on these the most modern improvements
in the various departments of bleaching and calico printing.
