A Meeting of the Proprietors took
Ratsinet Coffee-home. Cornball,

Mr. W. CLeste,._the Chairs an,
ing was convened in consequenee
nary circular letter, which
ceived from the Directors,'"
stalment of st. per share, and,
threatening to tnfosoe the,
he thought no man of common
after the pevious waste of -
emitted in the concern. Mr.
tors, with tears in I)is eyes, acknowledged having re-
ceived 9001. and others, no doubt, had received other si.
miler sums at the expense of the Company. Some of
the Directors, it appeared, had borrowed about WOOL
on account of the Company. for which they gave their'
individual security, and now finding that they could
not enforce their claim on Mr. Wks, they turned round
on the Shareholders to make good the deficiency.
A SHAREIIOLDIIII recommended to indict all the
Directors. When they came before an English Jury,
every honest man among them would be sure to be ac-
quitted, and those who were really guilty ought to be
punished. He had not a doubt but some of the Di-
rectors were very honourable men.
All the Members of the Meeting were unanimous io
scouting the idea of paying the call in question, and
they laughed at the threat which accompanied it. They.
accordingly resolved that they were determined to resist
the demand, and that such proceedings as Counsel might.
adelse, should be instituted against the Directors for
recovery of the money -already paid.

THE LATE bin. EDWARD HAY.

The remains of ;his Gentleman were Interred in &. James's
Churchiatil, at seven o'clock on Sunday morning. The funeral
was strictly private; but, severtheless, was attended by a great num-
ber of friends of the deceased. Mr. Hay died of a niordikation,
prsidoced by a thorn having entered his thumb, a few days previ-
oody. He has left a large family unprovided for. The consider-
ation of their circumstances has been referred to the Finance Coat.
mime of the Catholic Association.
At the Meeting of the Association on Saturday, Surgeon Wright
, observed, that" his deceased friend, Mr. Flay, bad certainly fallen
a victim to ids feelings;. he died a beggar, and had passed the lest
fortrelest boors of his existence in the greatest possible excess of
human deetitution and misery. A trifling pruscriptiop ordered for
him in his last moments, was returned by Olt Apothecary, because
the price of the medicine had not accompanied it; and It was s
melancholy face that this devoted patriot wanted is his last moments
the temporary aid of a tries of medicine, until supplied with the
means of paying for it by a friend, who bad invariably honoured
his &alba!"
