TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCE.
Lances AND G 1011.1011134
THE much-lathented Death of your late worthy
and respected Director, Sir ALLYANALR ALLAN, Bart.
again calls me forth to offer myself to your notice as a
Candidate for the honour of a seat in the Direction of your.
Affairs. Viewing the establishment of the East India Com-
! pany as essentially Commercial, and thinking that an intl..
mate knowledge of the various and important chains of in-
tercourse naturally existing under .such weighty concerns may'
be qualifications worthy the consideration of the•Proprictors, I
beg leave respectfully to solicit your suffrages at the approaching
Ballot, on the ground of my having been nearly eighteen years
a Principal In a House intimately connected with the com-
merce of the country, and In the hope that my experience will
have enabled me thus to form a correct judgment upon the gene-
ral business of the Company. I shall employ the short time which
this sudden event permits me to have in paying my personal re-
spects to the Proprietors individually : and have the honour to
remain, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your faithful and humble servant,
61, Portland-place, Sept. IS. %VAL CURTIS, Jun.
A Meeting of the Friends of llr. Curtis will take place en

AT a numerous and highly respectable MEET-
ING of PROPRIETORS of EAST INDIA STOCK,
held at the London Tavern the 18th day of September, 1820,
HUMPHREY HOWORTII, Esq. in the Chair,
The following Resolutions were proposed and carried unani-
mously :
Ist, Mooed by JOSEPH HUME, Esq. M.P. and seconded by
THOMSON HAMLET, Esq. That the public services of Mr. En-
sioNstotia, iu India, during a period of nearly Thirty-five-Years,
have afforded him the means of acquiring that intimate and prac-
tical knowledge of the affairs of Brides India, which, in the
actual condition of that great Empire, constitutes qualifications
essentially important to the exercise of the functions of a Mem-
ber of the Court of Directors.
2d, Moved by EDWARD FLETCHER, Esq. and seconded by
JAMES Humus, Esq. That,• adverting to the great power
which the British Empire in India has now attained, to the vast
extent of its dominions, foreign relations, and political controul,
and to the momentous interests which are involved in the con-
duct of the administration abroad, and in the efficient superin-
tendence and support of that administration at home, it becomes
an object of the first importance to the Proprietors, as well as
to the interests of the Public, to place among the executive
:Aembers of the Company, a Gentleman who has filled with so
much distinction the highest offices of the State, and has himself
been ministerially concerned in most of those great measures to
which the present high condition of our Indian Empire is to be
ascribed.
\ loved by RICHARD CAMPBELL BURET, Esq. and seconded
by Jones. IlLapxs, Esq. That the individuals composing this
Meeting du, tivrefore, feel it incumbent upon them, on public
principles, to promote, by every means in their power, the Mee-
lion of Mr. EDDIORSTONZ to fill the present vacancy in the three-

• •
tion, and they respectfully call upon the Pr Trietors at large to
come forward in support of that Gentleman's just pretensions.

ing were unanimously voted to 14ustrnasv HOWOZ7II, Esq. for
