Where.pn assemblage of talent and experience
is 'Concentrated in one line of practice, a success
must attend their application, not to be found
elsewhere. This has been evinced in the Esta-
blishment of the Medical Board at Charlotte-
House) Blacktriars.rroad,_ and at Woodstoc'k-
House, 'Woodstock-street, Oxford-street, where
cures' are every dray performed in cases which
have bafUed•the skill of eminent professors, and
excited their astonishment.

The Medical Board have particularly attended
to those conseptences of a certain disease,, wihch
entails the most distressing debilities, and un-
hinges the constitution of both sexes. They also
remove the effects of those symptoini arising from
uvenile indiscretion, limn irregular living, and
from a long residence. in warm climates—Of this
description they. beg .particularly to notice obsti-
nate eruptions in "the' skirl, sore throat, pains in
the head and limbs, frequently mistaken for rheu-
matism, strictures, fistulas, scrophida, &c.

Meeting of. the hibisbitants of Cheiiea and its
vicinity, Itsok place at the Flask Tavern, Chelsea,
to take ipto consideration, the enormous increase
of rates of the abOVe.natned Company; and the
,
best Means of obtafniirg redress for the present
- •
grievances,and security against. future oppression.
• -
Sir HENRY WILSON, Bart., was called to the Chair.—lle
regretted that some person nt 'greater.iMportance, in the
landed interest, had not teen 'called to fulfil that !situation g
he regretted much that Lord Grosvenor or Mr. Schute had nut
- attended, on'an occasion, which, in his opinion, o nearly
• corned them; but as most of thigGentlemen remit 'were his •
neighbours and friends, it was proper that where oppression .
was, beshOuld attend them.—(Applause.)—lt appeared whim,
that WI unprecedented demand had been made on the iuhahit-
ants .of Chelsea for water—an article, the gift of Heaven, and.
tliequott essential 'to the poor of sill others. It was an article' '
subject to no loss—to no manufacture—and in fact ceind
prove in no. way detrimental to the Proprietors, whose uoly
tensible would be to supply it to the Piddle. For himself, be
stiisil there independent Of any Water Company, far he
never had any thing to do with any of them, nor did he want
any ; hut it Was out the poorer classes of society that the de-
mand was likely to tiros-ate most seriously, on persoas who
by the. assistance. of that water supported their families in
tleCeuey. On entering into this subject, it was proper the
meeting shOuld know what line of conduct they ought to pur-
sue, for those pers'nns they had to oppose bad grown rich
with their money, and could ;efford to oppose them with some
of it. He appiebended that the Water Company rested their
de!ence principally on the expence they wine put to its
laying down iron pipes ; hut he would say, that such an
excuse could. nut avail them- notch, as it was a notorious
fact, that wooden. pipes were much more expensive than
cast iron pipes; but supposing iron pipes cost three times -
as touch as the wood,- did not the Water Company
save labour and materials in repairing pipes, .and would
they not in seven years be consideiable gainers ? He was an
old Magistrate, and his maxim was to condemn no person un-
heard, but still he was of opinion that good sound wood was
much dearer than cast iron, althorigh the latter was by far
moredurahle. He.would he glad to hear the opinions of some
othr Gentleman on tf,e subject, but he ti listed no political
or other extraneous matter would be introduced, but that •
each person would confine himself to the immediate object of
the Meeting. •
J. Butts:, Esq., Secretary, read the reports of former Meet-
ings on the saute subject, held at the Gloucester Coffee-
!louse, Gun .Tarvrn, &e. with the Resolutions agreed on at
those places.
J. E. Cusur.c, Esq. gut tip to address the meeting, and to
propose some iesolutions, but was prevented by
The CHAIRMAN. who declared, that till the moment he
heard them read by the Secretary, he was ignorant of the pro-
erecting% of any former meetings. He was much astonished
that on the first blush of the thing, the Water Company did
not make some overtures to compromise the matter, and pus
down that natural spirit of indignation which every man feels/ '
when he is oppressed,
Mr. EDIYAKIri, a resident. of Chelsea, begged to say, that -
at a meeting. of the Counuittee, a letter was scut to the Di-
rectors of the
.Chelsea Water Works, begging them to lower-
their rates; and their answer was, that they would cut the
pipes ofrtrom every house who,after seven days notice,refused
to pay the rate. He (Mr. E.) would not. have submitted to
this, were it not. in consideration of his tomtits, who were
poor people, and who must have water. •
Die CUAIRMAN=rhst is not the consideration of the meet-
jog; you need not tell your private reasons for submitting to
a gross imposition.
Mr. Euss'Auns (in continuation) stated, that two years ago,
when the Junction Company came into Chelsea in opposition
to -the present Covaptuay,„circulars were then sent round,
hogging the inhabitants not to encourage the Junction, and
the rates were 'lowered.' Shortly after a combination (be
could call it by no other name) took place between the two
companies ; some concentration. of interests took place, and
the Junction left the neighbourhood; after which the Chelsea
Company levied what rates they pleased.
LSON, of Sloane-street, next addressed the Meeting.
He said it was notorious that the Chelsea Company had acted
from bad motives, for be recollected two years ago, when the
Junction Company opposed them, that they took 130 per
cent. Off; and if they could afford to serve the neighbourhood
so cheap two years ago, it was singular their rates should be
exorbitant now. He refused to pay the rate, and had a pump
erected, a course which he would advise other persons to
adopt. -
Mr. JAQues said, that he was one of those raised at the rate
of 84 per cent. He refused at hest to pay it, but the Com-
pany sent him two men, one cavving a receipt and the ether
a nick-axe; " Pay'
us the money,' said they, " or we will cut
elf your pip,e",--(Laoghter).—He refused to pay it, and the
wan with the pick-axe cut the pipe off. He (Mr. Jaques)
thought the best plan would be to establish a new Water
Ctimnany, but it would require the interference of the great
capitalists of the place—(Cries of "a plan to that effect is
made oht"). Mr. J. said he was glad to hear it; it would
prove very beneficial.
Mr. CsiasmoN complained of being doubly rated, and of
having the water turned from his premises, on his refusal to
pay it.
CHARLES PERRY, Esq. in an eloquent speech, expressedy
readiness to support the establishment of a Neat W-iter
Company, and submitted a Resolution to that effect, which.
was unanimously carried.

....
A Committee was then appointed for general purposes, and
J. Burn and C. Addis, Esqrs., were appointed Secretaries.
•Mr. S'rEeiNs informed the Meeting, that he fist paid el.,
cud had been lately rated at 41. 145.
Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting
dispersed. •

SHOCKING OCCURRENCE.

EXECUTION OF JOHN. MURRAY.
Dt.,Duty, Nov. 23.—This most unfortunate
convict, after undergoing all the awful and- ap.-
palling preparations for au ignominious death, ou
Saturday last; -was-no sootier' launched, as it was
charitably presnthed, into eternity, and the cur-
tain drawn over his mortal existence, when, bor.
rible to relate, the rope snapped at about half a
yard from the knot under his ear, and he fell
from an ele%ation of about 10 or 11 feet on his
side against the stone steps of the gaol beneath.
Au indescribable horror pervaded the surrounding
crowd ; but what must have been the sitnation of
the wretched suirerer-7: -He lay apparently insen-
sible for it minute or so, when being lake(' by
sonic of the people belong ilig to the She'll', he -
was conducted into the-Execution Room, where,
by his earnest desire, the ltev. Air. Fitzpatrick
again atiended, and adwiniste'red to him that hea-
venly consolation which alone could mitigate his
split:rings. In about half an hour from ti,e time
of his tall, he was again brout!ht out, supported.
by the executioner, all covered with Worn; front
the wounds he had received, and »gain suspended
twain the fatal drop. lie died without a struggle.

A boat going through London Bridge ycster-
dayinoriting, was upset by the rapidity of the
tide, when, we. are sorry to relate, a fine boy,
four years old, the son of Mrs. Mont, of Wool-
wich, %vas drowned. Mrs..Munt and the water-
tuan we; e both saved.
