THE Provisional Directors have the great satisfaction of
informing the Shareholders in this undertaking that. the
Act for which they applied has passed through both Houses of
Parliament, and is now waiting only for the Royal Assent.
All the shares being taken, the works will be commenced
without delay, and a part of the Line from London to Waltham
Cross, through Tottenham and Edmonton, will be finished, and
yielding a profitable return within a year from the expiration
-of the time which must necessarilly be occupied in obtaining
'possession of the land, and the whole line will be completed
within two years front the same period.
For the information of distant subscribers, the Directors sub-
join some extracts from the report of the Committee of the
House of Commons, which show that a most liberal income has
been proved; and the Directors, at the same time, take the
opportunity to point out the additional advantages' which may
be expected to accrue from other lateral railways which have
been projected by other Companies to flow into this the direct
northern line.
An act for the completion of the line from Cambridge to
York, or to some point near York, which the railroads already
in progress may render advisable, and also to the east, will be
applied for in the next session of Parliament. The capital for
this continuation of the line has been subscribed for, and the
necessary surveys are in progress.
Extracts from the report of the Committee of the House of
Commons, May 20, 1836.
" The amount of income expected to arise from the convey-
ance of passengers and goods is £290,702 6s. 3d., the propor-
tion of passengers being £199,530 2s. Bd., and for goods £91,127
3s. 7d.
" The calculations of remuneration do not :depend upon the
contemplated extension of the line, but it is expected that the re-
inneration will be much increased thereby.
" There is no competing line of railway now existing, or in
progress ; for although two other lines were brought before the
Committee at the commencement of their inquiry, they were,
both withdrawn at an early period, and without sufficient evi-
dence being adduced in their favour.
" There is no plain -sin the proposed railway which will re-
quire to be worked by assistant engines, either stationary or
locomotive.
" The fitness in an engineering point of view of the projected
line appears to be unusually great.
"The amount of the estimates of the cost and expenses to be
incurred up to the time of the completion of the railway, is
.'1,2.00,000, which sum has appeared in evidence to be fully ade-
quate to the purpose.
The estimated charge of the annual expenditure of the rail-
way whets completed, is from 40 to 41 per cent. of the gross
anni:,l income, and the calculations on which this change is
estimated, appear to the committee to have beeu sufficiently
proved, taking into account the unusually favourable nature of
the line.
" The calculations proved in evidence have satisfactorily es-
tablished that the revenue is likely to be sufficient to support
the annual charges of the maintenance of the railway, and
still to allow a profit to the projectors."
The Directors take this opportunity to announce that a meet-
ing of all the shareholders will be summoned in August.

Considerable facilities and privileges are given to Associa-
tions of the kiud now formed, by an Act of Parliament of the
10th of George IV, intituled 4` Art Act to consolidate and
amend the Laws relating to Prieutity Societies," and also an
Act of the 4th mid sth IV., to extend the benefits of
the same ; and to obtain the benefits of these Acts it is re-
quisite to conform to certain Regulations; hut, as these are
designed to promote the good nolo:- and security of such So-
defies, it has been concluded that ihe National Provident- In-
stitution should be established under their provisions.

onforming to their Rules, are the following, :-
Ist. An entire exemption front all the Stamp Duties on their
various transactions, which would otherwise be liable to heavy
-charges.
2d. Permission to employ any part or the whole of the money,
ip Government Securities, at a higher rate of interest than

found lower than most other offices founded upon the same libe-
ral principles.
it presents to the industrious and.prudent Mechaeic or Arti-
san all the security and benefit of, a savings' bank on au extended
evale.
To those eneaeecl ill business, or the professions,. or holding
situations in private or public establishments, whose incomes
mainly depend on their own exertions, it affords an easy oppor_
tunity of securing some provision fur that period of life. when
the energies of the most robust are no longer equal to their
necessities.
• To the more affluent, and to all classes in proportion to their

m. ORTON'S truly valuable CAMOMILE PILLS for
IN INDIGESTION, &C.—These Pills are a pure extract of
Cammomile Flowers, prepared by a peculiar process, by which
all the medicinal properties of rather more than one ounce of
the flowers are concentrated into four moderate sized Pills.
They are mild in operation, and have proved wonderfully suc-
cessful in removing every symptom of indigestion, sick headache,
loss of appetite, giddiness, heart-burn, costiveness, eruptions of
the skin, and all complaints arising from a disordered state-of the
digestive organs; they require no alterations of diet, and their
operation will be found co beneficial in giving tone to the sto-
mach, regulating the bowels, and in promoting a healthy habit,
• as fully to convince all who take them of their great utility.
Persons who have suffered from indigestion for several years
have by their use in a few weeks perfectly recovered, which is a
convincing proof that in the smallest compass is contained the
largest quantity of the tonic principle, of so peculiar a nature as
to pervade the whole system, through which it diffuses health
and strength. •

AMERICAN SHIPS IN THE PACIFIC.—The American sloop
Honduras, Captain Scott, after cruising among the group of
islands around Ascension island, went into Strong's island to
repair and provision. The captain and eight wen went on
shore for supplies, leaving the mate and cabin-boy in the ship.
The deck swarmed with islanders; when it was ajprehended an
attack had been made on the boat's crew ashore, as the captain
was heard calling to the mate to load the muskets. The mate,
hearing this, sprang on board from the natives, who bad seized
.him, and with cutlass and musket succeeded in driving them
overboard. He then slipped the chain-cable, and with the aid
of the boy spread canvass and brought the vessel out of the
harbour, making the best of his way back to Ascension island,
where she arrived after 11 days, without foremast, and short of
provisions. Having shipped a native crew at Ascension, she
sailed for Oahn, where she arrived in January. Small hopes
are entertained that Captain Scott and the crew escaped being
murdered.. The crew of the Thetis, Captain Rogers, had at-
tempted to seize the vessel, two or three of the men having en-
tered the cabin at midnight, and with axes approached the berths
of Captain Rogers, and l-lannington, the mate, and severed off
both their heads. The trading-master of the schooner, hearing
the alarm, seized a cutlass, ran on deck, and encountering the
chief of the revolters; after a contest of 10 or 15 minutes, killed
him, and brought the remainder to subjection. The American
whale-ship Independence, had been lost on Starbrook's Island.
The mate and part of the crew had reached Tahitti, but nothing
had been heard of the remainder, who, with Capt, Braynter on
board, had gone in a second boat.
- It is, stated in some of the evening ministerial journals, of
Monday, that-parliament will be prorogued in the first week of
August.
