I. THE MODERN PRACTICE OF PHYSIC ;
which points out the charasfters, ratites, fynaptoms, ;wog-
noftie, morbid appearances, and improved method of treating the
difeates of all climates.
By ROBERT THOMAS, M D.
This work has been carefully reviled; a few difeafes which were
omitted in the tint edition are now inferted; and a very large por-
tion of new and important matter has been added.
" This is a judicious compilation of fads from the haft writers,
and the different fubjeds are treated with t.revity and perfpicuity.
Dr. Thomas has abridged with judgment, has added modern npi-
nine's and difenveries, has frequently introduced the refult of his
own experience, and his performance thus becomes an ufeful cum-
pecdintu of the prefent Itate of medical pradtice."

BRIS COL PORT BILL.

OCTOBER 9. t 207.
AT a MEETING of the COMMITTEE of
MERCHAN I'S and TRADERS, held this day, at the
Built Tavern,

PHILIP GEORGE, Elq in the Chair,

RE!!OLVED UNANIMOVILV,

That it is with the utmoft furprife this Committee has feen
puhlithed a Notice from the Dock Company, in which they ftate
an intention of applying to Parliament in the rnfuing hellion,
" for Powers to rife new and further and ad4itional Rates, "Folk,
and Duties."

That the Principle of impofing filch additional Rates,Tolls, and
Duties, having bc,n conildered in the kit &film' of Parliament,
and rejected by In large a Major;ty of the Houle of Commons,
this Committee did not conceive situ the Dock Company would
again bring forward a Bill, the intended Provifions of which ap •
pear to be In unprecedented and unjult, and the Confequenccs of
which mult be found In i:lurious to the Trade and Commerce of
the Port, already opprefTed by the Weight of its introit Charges.
That this Bill, if paiTed into a Law, will not only prove de-
flrudtive to the Commercial Prefptrity of this City, but affedt the
General Interefts of the Empire, by tending to citablifh the Prin-
ciple, that its Trade and Co:nm.:ree may be from time to time
taxed by private Companies, in order to compenfate for fallacious
Ellimates Cr an improvident lApenditure.
That this Committee are of Opinion immediate Meafures
mould he taken for cp;oring the laid Bill in l'ar iament, mould
the Dock Company unfortunatety p.rßit. in their prefent inten-
tion ; and they look with the moil perfeet Coi.fidence for Sup-
port to the Wild-in' and Justice of the I.egifiature.
