In the 31ctropclis there is little provision for scientific and artistic
entertainments. The Panopticon is formed to supply this defect,
and will afford the most interesting, intellectual, and, at the minis
time, 'coral exhibition in the several branches of natural philosophy,
industry, and the tine arts, ever before submitted to public inspec-
tion. Her INfost Craeicius Majisty " being desirous of encouraging
this laudable design," has granted her Royal Charter, incorporating
the Company, thereby rendering every individual Shareholder free
from personal responsibility for the acts, debts, or other engagements
of the Compai,y. No Shareholder, in fact, can by any possibillity
lose more than his stock or share in the capital, namely, 101. per
share.

During the hours of exhibition, every holder of ten shares will be
entitled to a free admission ; awl every holder of twenty-five shares,
will have the fUrther privilege'of Introducing a friend.
The Panopticon has been brought under the notice of men of busi-
ness, who, having entered closely into the necessary details of cal-
culation, and allowing for conti gencies, have confidently stated
that a dividend of 101. per cent per annum may easily be realised to
the Proprietors.
After payment of the deposit of 1/. per share, two months' notice
will be given of each call of 11. per share, and It is believed that n,t
snore than five calls will be required. Interest at the rate of 41. per
gent. per annum, will be allowed, until the opening of the Institution,
on the 61. per share paid in advance.
,applications for prospectuses and for the remaining chartered
shares, to be made tosgessrs. Edward an I Alfred Whitmore, Stock
