EAST INDIA HOUSE, JANUARY 17, 1844.
THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the EAST
INDIA COMPANY do hereby give notice,
That a SPECIAL GENERAL COURT of the said
C°MPANY will be held at their House, in Leadenhall-street,
" FRIDAY, the 26th instant, at Eleven o'clock in the forenoon,
It the desire of Nine Proprietors of East India Stock, in com-
pliance with the following Requisition, viz. :
"To the Hon. the CHAIRMAN of the COURT of DI-
RECTORS of the EAST INDIA COMPANY.
„ " HONOURABLE SIR,—
We, the undersigned Proprietors of East India Stock, re•
quest that a Special General Court may be convened at the
earliest period, to take into consideration the following resolu-
tions poposed to be submitted to them.
" Ist. That from the printed papers recently laid before the
Proprietors on the subject of Sinde, it is the opinion of this
Court that the proceedings of the Government of India, which
ended in the dethronement, exile, and imprisonment of the
ineers, and the seizure of their country and private property,
ilhere uncalled for, impolitic, and unjust.
" 2d. That this Court does therefore most earnestly recom-
Mend to the Court of Directors the immediate adoption of such
steps,_ by representation to her Majesty's Government or other-
!vise, as may cause all practicable reparation to be made for the
Injustice already committer!, and enforce the abandonment of
aline of policy inconsistent with good faith, and subversive of
the interests of the British rule in India.
" We have the honour to be,
" Honourable Sir,
" Your obedient Servants,
"J. SULLIVAN.

BLAI a'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
FURTHER TESTIMONIALS OF
_THE EFFICACY
OF THIS MEDICINE.
To Mr. P ROUT 929, Strand, London.
Frimley, near Bagshot, Surrey, A pril23, 1843.
Sir,—l enclose three cases in which the parties therein named have
received great benefit from using Blair's Pills, and the truth of which
lam at any time ready to make affidavit of it required. You are at
perfect liberty to publish them if you think proper. Hoping this
may induce the incredulous to make a trial of the Pills, which will
speedily convince them of their value, I am, Sir, %ours truly,
JOHN J. GILES.

Pirbright, April 22, l-43.
Dear Sir -Upon your recommendation I sent for a box of Blair's
Rheumatic Pills, and to my astonishment a few doses entirely re-
moved the tormenting pains my wife had suffered so long ; but hay-
ng caught a severe cold the rheumatism again returned, when hay-
mg recourse to a few more Pills, it again fled, and has not since
returned The public are not generally aware of the efficacy of this
truly valuable medicine, or few would suffer from rheumatism.
In conseqnence of witnessing the effects of the above medicine in
my own family, I recommended Edward Bridger, now sixty-seven
years of age, a labourer and jobbing gardener, to apply to you, he
being much afflicted with rheumatism for twenty years; he could
scarcely get any sleep, being always work when in bed, and nnable
to walk without the ass stance of a stick. You gave him some Pills
I saw him yesterday ; he to'd me he could now get rest, which he had
been unableao do for a very long time; he is still lame from the
length of time he has been afflicted, but can now walk without much
inconvenience ten or twelve miles in the day, and can, as he says, do
any light work ; he has applied to rise for a job at hoeing. It is dis-
tressing to see a fellow-creature suffering such excruciating pain,
when relief can be obtained by taking Blair's Gout and Rheumatic
Pills. I shall, for the b.,nefit of tho e who may suffer, continue to
recommend them.—l am, dear Sir, yours truly,
To John J. Giles, Esq., GEORGE INNWOOD.

Blackwater, near Bagshot, Feb. 25, 1M43.
Dear Giles,—The effect of Blair's Pills has been everything zould
wish for. 1 had symptoms of the Gout during Wednesday night ; I
took two Pills during the night, and two in the morning, which quite
removed the pain ; and I was enabled to give a lecture at Barfly-
row on Thursday evening, although I was in fear that morning I
should not have been enabled to leave home.
I am, dear Sir, yours truly, EDW. J. LANCE.
