THE COMMITTEE of MANAGEMENT beg t
notify, that they have obralued theopinion of his Majesty's
Attorney-General, of Mr. Serjeant Willie, and of Mr. Colorer, dis-
tinctly stating—•' That after the Original Subscribers shall have
transfeved their Shares, pursuant to the Aetitbey will not be liable
for any part of the sums subscribed by them, for which calls may
be made subsequently to the time whew the Shares shall be so re-
gularly transferred." A similar opinion bad been previously pro.
cured from two other Learned Counsel, declaring the non-liability
of Subscribers, after the transfer of their Shares • and this concur-
rent testimony will, it is presumed, toe considered by the Sub-
scribers, and by the Public, as an effectual contradiction to the
44verseltatements which have erroneously been put forth.

The original opinions may be seen, on application to Messrs.
King and Lukin, Solicitors to the Undertaking, 5, Gray's Jun-
square, and copies of the same will be deposited with the Contract
Deed, which, until further notice, left at No. 16, George-
street, Mansion Mike, from the Hour of Eleven till Two o'Clock ;
and at Mesus. King and Lukin 's Office, from Three till Six o'Clock
every day ; at which places, parties subscribing are requested to tall
as early u possible, and sign the Contract, preparatory to the com-
mittal of the Bill on the6th of May neat, and to the subsequent in-
troduction of the measure into the House of Lords.

1- FAKE'S GENUINE PILLS, justly famous tot
Aat curing, In all its stages, the VENEREAL DISEASE—
One small Pill is a dose, and the taking of one Box, in a recent
case, will soon convince the patient of the certainty of his speedy
tecovery. Nothing can be better coin:Awed, more safe, or more
Convenient than this Remedy, for such as are obliged to go journies
or to sea, as it needs no • confinetnent nor restraint of Diet ; and
sixty years experience (in an extensive practice) has proved that it
will effect a Cure when repeated Salivation and all other methods
avail nothing. For the Scurvy and other Chronica )Disorders,
thii Aledicine has not its parallel. Upwards of 40,000 persons
of both sexes have been radically cured of the above cruel disor-
ders, within the last eight years. Prepared and sold by the sole
l'roprittors, T. TAY LOH and SON, Members of the loyal Col-
