RUG trouble is occasioned by the sale. The license is only I Is. per

Applientioa to be made (if by letter post-paid) as above.

FDWARD PRICE and CO. beg respectfully
to request that all parties wishing to purchase their COMPO-
SITE CANDLES will ask In the shops simply for " Price's Patent
Candles." Sinco theso have attracted public attention, many Imita-
tors have made candles, and called them by the name " Composite,"
used by Edward Price and Co. ; but the process by which the real
Composite Candles aro made, being a patent one ; and E. I'. and Co.
granting no licenses, none of these imitation candles are at all the
same as the real ones. The chief properties of these latter arc their
burning, without snuffing, more brilliantly than the best wax, aid
their athordiig so large an amount of light, that they are cheaper,
taking this into account, than the commonest tallow candles, one of
them giving the light of three ordinary moulds. They may be had of
most of the respectable tallow-chandlers throughout the kingdom, and
are supplied to the trade wholesale by Edward Price and Co., Bel-
mont, Vauxhall ; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.

IMPORTANT TO CAPITALISTS.—THE CEDRYN SLATE
QUARRY, OF CONSIDERABLE EXTENT, IN HIGH
REPUTE, AND CARRYING ON AT THIS MOMENT
AN IMMENSE TRAFFIC.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS begs to notify to the
Public he is directed by ihose interested in this •alue-
able Property, to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, Loudon, on
THURSDAY, the 17th October, at Twelve, in One Lot, and perem
torily, a

VERY PROMISING INVESTMENT,
THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF GREA I` EXTENT,
situate in Carnarvenshire, North Wales. If it be inquired why a
concern that is so highly eulogised should be in the market, it is
rejoined (to use a very ancient and very homely adage), " too
many cooks frequently spoil the broth." One competent person,
possessing a brain farm, will speedily accomplish all that this
announcement has in perspective, and even more under a talented
direction.
The Slits is of excellent quality, of a rich grey.blue colour, and
can be bad in abundance under a very thin cover.
The work is already about 40 yards wide, and is capable of
being extended to upwards of
ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT'i YARDS,
where a large number of men may be employed most advanta-
geously, and without the slightest risk. This is an investment af.
fording a rare opportunity to any party with moderate capital to

REALISE A LARGE FORTUNE.
The observations which follow are extracted from a Welsh
Paper, and fully demonstrate the ac:uracy of the foregoing state-
ment :—" I have been in Carnarvunshire, to see the Quarry, and
my opinion is, that there is something extraordinary in it; it
Gan be made, with a few thousands outlay,
THE MOST EXTENSIVE CONCERN OF THIS SOIL

_
THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
The vein of pure slates is ascertained to be no leas than 1110
yards wide, and at least half a mile in length, without any ob-
struction, and as deep as any parties may feel inclined to go,
wherein there is sufficient quantity of that useful material
TO SUPPLY THE WHOLE WORLD FOR CENTURIES
TO COME;
and with good management the profits would—they could not be less
than from 100 to 150 per cent. upon the outlay, after it is put in
proper order. It will employ many hundred men to great
advantage. Another desirable point connected with this concern
is, that the cover of earth on the surface is only two or three yards
deep, whereas most of the quarries are under ten or fifteen yards
cover. The workshops, waggons, and working utensils are in
good repair, as also the road, three miles of which has been made
at the expense of nearly ,0001.;2
THIS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE PURCHASE.
Another point is worthy of consideration, the work is on the side of
the celebrated Carnarvon Hills, and a sufficient declivity affords to
the water a cheap conveyance to
THE BEAUTIFUL EIGIA LAKE.
These splendid waters are full of fish, and consequently afford lots
of amusement, and the bill prevents the impossibility of any annoy-
ance to the• works from water. The distance to a capital
shipping wharf is only-seven miles, and but nine to the intended
CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD GREAT RAILWAY.
The name of the concern is
THE " CEDRYN QUARRY,"
situate about ten miles from Banger, and the same distance from
Conway and Llanrwst, in the centre between the three towns.

" It is held under
THE RIGHT HON. LORD NEWBOROUGH
for an unexpired terns of twenty.tight years, which can be extended
at any ba►e.
" In conclusion, we oats only add that the Quarry ought to pro-
duce a considerable sum, as it is
A SURE FORTUNE FOR ANY SPIRITED PARTY
who may be lucky enough to get it."
This unpretending statement of facts will convince even those
inclined to be sceptical, that it is an investment free from doubt or
uncertainty.
Full particulars may be had on application to Mr. E. Owen,
Auctioneer, Ruthin ; to Mr. George Robins, London ; the
Waterloo, Liverpool; the Albion, Manchester and the White
Lion, Bristol.

WILSON'S SCOTTISH MINSTRELSY.—Mr. Wilson is
at present making a tour through Sussex, Hampshire,
Kent, and Surrey, and in all the towns which he has
visited, he has been greeted with crowded and enthusias-
tic audiences. At Brighton on Friday night and Satur-
day morning the Newburgh-rooms were crowded to ex-
cess, and many ladies and gentlemen were compelled to
leave without being able to gain admission. On Satur-
day morning, while Mr. Wilson was reading an extract
from one of Burns's letters to Mr. George Thomson, he
said he could not help mentioning that that gentleman,
who had prompted Burns to write so many of his finest
lyrics, and who had been a correspondent of Burns
sixty years ago, was in the room this morning, and,
though several years above fourscore, still enjoyed ex-
cellent health. Mr. Thomson was sitting very near Mr.
Wilson, and seemed to enjoy most heartily the manner
in which he gave several of Burns's songs. The men-
tion of the old gentleman's name raised the curiosity of
the audience, and every eye was strained to get a
glimpse of him. Mr. Wilson promised another visit to
Brighton in a few weeks, before he starts for Scotland,
and in the meantime goes into Gloucestershire, Devon.
shire, the Isle of Wight, and ethtr places.
ACCIDENT ON VAUXHALL* lIRIDG E. -On Friday
morning, as a young man was driving a valuable young
horse, in a light cart, over Vauxhall-bridge, the horse
suddenly shied at two large stones lying near the pave-
ment, swerved on one side, and threw the driver. The
horse then started off at full speed, when the gate-
keeper closed the gate, which the poor animal endea-
voured to clear, but, owing to the dead weight behind,
fell back with great force on the iron spikes with which
the gate is studded, two of the spikes entering the under-
jaw, and lacerating it in a dreadful manner. The poor
creature commenced plunging violently, smashing the
vehicle, and at length succeeded in disengaging himself
from the spikes, which were much bent, the whole of
the under-jaw being literally flayed, and the throat and
windpipe dreadfully cut.
