The Provisional Committee of the Paris and Lyons Railway Com-
pany having ascertained that it is the intention of the French Govern-
ment to lease the line to a company able and willing to reimburse the
State for all expenditure hitherto incurred, and to undertake all fur-
ther outlay which may be required for the entire construction of the
line, have determined upon increasing the capital to the full amount
necessary for this purpose. In conformity with the terms of sub-
scription contained in the circular of the 10th August last, which con-
templated such a contingency, they have resolved upon offering
to the Shareholders Two New Shares for every Old Share, sub•
ject to all the liabilities of increase or diminution hereafter, as in the
former case, and subject also to any further call which may be found
necessary. All Shareholders who may wish to avail themselves of
this option are requested to apply at the office, and to produce the
original receipts, between Tuesday, 11th, and Saturday, 22d inst.
Notice is hereby given, that all parties not applying within the pre-
scribed time will be considered to have waived their claim to the ad-
ditional shares, which will beßy otherwise appropriated.

ESSENCE of ANCHOVIES
Warehouse, 107, STRAND, corner of the Savoy-steps, London
JOHN BURGESS and SON, being apprised of the numerous en-
deavours made by many persons to impose a spurious article for their
make, feel it incumbent on them to request the attention of the
public, in purchasing what they conceive to be the original to ob-
serve the Name and Address correspond with the above. The gene-
ral appearance of the spurious descriptions will deceive the un-
guarded ; and, for their detection,J. B. and Son, submit the following
cautions:-4ome are in appearance at first sight, " the genuine," but
without same or address ; some " Burgess's Essence of Anchovies,"
and others " Burgiss's ;" and many more without address. John
Burgess and Son, having been many years honoured with such dis-
tinguished approbation, feel every sentiment of respect towards the
public, and earnestly solicit them to inspect the labels previous to
purchasing what they conceive to be of their make, which they hope
will prevent many disappointments.
BURGESS' NEW SAUCE, for general purposes, having given such
treat satisfaction, continues to be prepared by them, and is recom•
mended as a most useffil and convenient sauce ; will keep good in all
climates.

CAUTION TO CONSUMERS.—DRY GAS METERS.
EFRIES'S DRY METERS have successfully
stood the testaf six years' trial. Among the 10,000 in use,
they have been adopted by the oflizial authorities of the Houses of
Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office,
Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other
Cleb-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many
other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of
gas have passed through some of these meters without regula-
tion or repair, aid which are still working to the entire satisfaction
of the gas company and consumers.
All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are invited
to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from
the use pf Defries's Dry M eter, but, to prevent the substitution of im-
perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry
Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his
Meters.
Testimonials from the most eminent and scientific men and large
consumers can be had on application (or will be tt rwarded by post),
free of expense, at the Manufactory, 67, St. Martin's-lane, London.
Warranted to keep correct in all weathers.

IILVER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
and injurious Metals, called Nickel and German Silver, sup-
planted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE.
C. WATSON, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Folgate, aided by
a person of Science in the amalgamation of Metals, has succeeded in
bringing to Public Notice the most beautifhl Article ever yet offered ;
possessing ah the richness of Silver in appearance, with all its dura-
bility and hardness—with its perfect sweetness in use, undergoing, as
it does, a Chemical Process, by which, all that is nauseous in mixed
Metals is entirely extracted—resisting all Acids—may be cleaned as
silver, and is manufactured into every Article for the Table and
Sideboard:—

C. WATSON begs the Public will understand that this Metal is
peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from Gold
than his metal is from all others—on its intrinsic merit alone he
wishes it to be tested, and from the daily increasing enlogiums he re-
ceives, he is convinced that nothing can prevent its becoming an
article of universal wear.

PATENT PARAGON CAMPHIXE LAMPS.
The perfection of these Lamps over the Vesta has been
happily attained by the invention of two parallel flat rings—a larger
and a smaller forming a cone round the margin of the wick, which
cause a rapid reverberation of air against the flame—thus condensing
every particle of volatilized vapour, it is free from smoke or smell,
having perfect combustion, and in full action, emits a light equal to
16 wax candles.
C. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton
Folgate, will contain, throughout the season, all the most elegant
recherchO and new patterns, comprising Or-molu, China, Glass, and
Opal.
Old Oil Lamps fitted with the Paragon Read for 21s. And the
Paragon Apparatas applied to the Vesta for Gs. The Spirit analysed
and recommended by Dr Lire, is delivered in screw eau by C.
Watson's cart. at 45. per gallon.
