" RAILWAY LITIGATION.

" At a preliminary meeting of persons interested, held the 2d day
of December, 1845,
" Itwas resolved,—That proceedings at law having been threatened
In various railway matters, it is very desirable that, with a view to
the equitable arrangement of just demands, and the resistance of
claims obviously made under the impression that the dread of
ruinous law charges will induce compliance, as also to ascertain the
legal liabilities of committee-men, shareholders, and applicants for
shares; and further to elicit the actual circumstances of various
railway projects (matters far too weighty and important for indivi-
dual responsibility), a confidential meeting be speedily convened of
parties who arc interested in these objects."
WILLIAM COLLINS, Esq., M.P., in the Chair.
The names of numerous persons desirous of co-operating having
been given in—
It was unimously resolved,—That with a view to the accomplish-
ment of the forego.ng purposes, a Society be now formed, to be called
" The Railway Mutual Protection Society."

solicitors of the Society, be authorised to furnish copies thereof to
applicants ; and
That persons proposing to become members of the Society, are re-
quested to send their names and addresses to tile solicitors.

_RAILWAY MUTUAL PROTECTION
This Society is a voluntary association 'of persons interested in the
sticess arid‘j inistration of railways ; and especially for
ascertaining •th. tate of the law as affecting the rights and
liabilities of tilt • ; ,ed with railways and railway projects.
That in the Adel' 1 .te of the law touching the various rela-
=• . in which pers connected with railways find themselves
~ great induce ' . are offered to the resistance of just de-
..
, and to the enforcement of groundless claims; in either case
ng very serious expenses, amounting in the one to the denial
ice, and in the other to the ii.fliction of positive wrong.
obvious that individuals having to enforce their rights against,
or s resist unwarrantable claims by bodies corporate in their cha-
racter, and having in their hands large funds, will do so at a serious
disadvantage, without an arrangement for co-operation and mutual
assistance, and the aid of a subscribed fund. It is therefore agreed
that a fund shall be, provided by subscription, and that the following
rules and regulations shall be binding upon the members of the
Society.
That a Committee of seven persons, including the President, to be
called the Council, shall be appointed to conduct the business of the
Society.
That a president shall be appointed, whose sanction, with two of
the Council, shall be necessary to all decisions touching the institution
or defence of proceedings at law or in equity.
That the Council shall consider the case of any member of the
Society which may be brought before them, and shall advise whether
any and what proceedings shall be taken, either at law, in equity, or
otherwise, for the protection or assertion of the rights of such mem-
ber, and that all such proceedings as may be suggested by the Council
shall be submitted to the solicitors of the Society.
That, for the guidance of the C..uncil, and for the satisfaction of
the members of the Society, the opinions of several counsel at the
equity and common law bars shall be taken upon the various and
most prominent questions which may affect the rights and liabilities
of the subscribers and allottees of shares, as well as the Directors,
Managing and Provisional Committeemen, of railways and railway
projects.
That the names of persons seeking to become members of the So-
ciety shall be submitted to the Council, who shall have the absolute
power of admission.
That an annual subscription of Two Guineas shall be paid by each
member of the Society-; on or before the let of January in each year,
and no person shall be deemed a member until such subscription
be paid.
That members who shall not renew their subscriptions on or before
the Ist day of January, 1847, and so on from time te time,' on or
before any succeeding Ist of January, shall cease to be members of
the Society.
That any subscriber who may desire to confide his own case to the
Council of the Society, may do so in strict confidence, and if his case
is one which the Council deem to be within the scope of the Society,
may then have the option of requiring his interests to be censidered
by the solicitors of the Company upon the payment to the funds of
the Society of such further sum of money as may appear to the Coun-
cil appropriate and reasonable, or of placing the business in other
bands upon his own responsibility.
That all subscribers shall be entitled to the benefit of the opinions
of counsel proposed to be taken for the guidance of the Council, and
also of the advice of the counsel and of the solicitors.
That Daniel Whittle Harvey, Esq., be appointed the President of
the Council.
That H. P. Davis, Esq., be appointed the Treasurer, and Messrs.
Amory, Sewell, and Moores, the solicitors of the Society.

ment of the business of the Society, provide 1 they are not repugnant
to the above rules And that no subscriber shall be liable for any
costs, charges, and expenses whatever beyond his subscription, and
such other expenses as shall have been provided for by his engage-
ments with the Council.

KERS produced in a few weeks by using an essential Spirit
drawn from choice Aromatic Herbs, the peculiar properties of
which are known only to the Inventor, and although perfectly inno-
cent in itself, will produce new Hair on bald places, caused by weak-
ness of constitution, or where Nature has not bestowed this orna-
ment of the human figure. It has been known to many of the Nobi-
lity and Gentry upwards of eleven years, some of whom the Inven-
tor most sincerely thanks for their attestation of its merits, in the
arielamiranainfod manifold—it
it additional lustre and
it prevents the Hair from fall-
ing off or turning gray; a few drops on the crown of the head will
remove the most distressing pain in that part produced by or at-
tended with faintness ; and is acknowledge d by the Faculty as the
only specific known to cure that disease of the bead called Porigo
de calvans (which causes the Hair to come off in patches) ; a few
applications removes dandruff. This wonderful discovery is fully ex-
plained in a pamphlet containing testimonials to its regenerating
new Hair upon bald places, entitled, " Three Minutes' Advice on the
Growth and Preservation of the Human Hair," by W. Grimstone,
