HIS company has been formed for the purpose of
bringing into general use a highly improved steam-
carriage, which the directors can state with the greatest
confidence is in every re'pect applicable to the convey-
ance of passengers and goods on turnpike roads.
An experimental carriage has already run several thou-
sand miles on the common turnpike roads, under the
inspection of eminent engineers, ascending and descend-
ing the steepest hills, and passing over newly-laid gravel
and bad roads, with facility and safety, at an average speed
of upwards of fifteen miles per hour. It is entirely free
from smoke, noise, or escape of steam ; and does not in
the slightest degree interfere with the ordinary traffic, by
frightening hor.ses or otherwise.
The great improvements in the construction and ar-
rangements of the machinery have so reduced the bulk
and weight of the carriage, and diminished the wear and
tear, as to insure the success of the undertaking in a
commercial point of view.

veyance possesses over

The intr6duction of wood pavement has opened another
extensive source of profit from the present undertaking,
as on wooden roads the steam carriage can maintain
.with
ease an average speed of 30 miles an hour.
Notices have already been given of an application to
Parliament in the ensuing session for an act to regulate
the affairs of the company, and to limit the liabilities of

progress with the Eastern and North Eastern Railways
for placing them on the road from Stortford through New-
market,.and from Colchester through Ipswich to Nor-
wich, early in the spring, thus bringing Norwich within a
six hour's journey of London.
Applications for shares to be made at the Company's

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH,
Price Is. ld. per box.
THIS excellent Family PILL is a Medicine of long-
tried efficacy for correcting all disorders of the
Stomach and Bowels, the common symptoms of which are
Costiveness, Flatulency, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick
Headache, Giddiness, Sense of Fulness after meals,
Dizziness of the Eyes, Drowsiness and Pains in the
Stomach and Bowels, Indigestion producing a Torpid
State of the-Liver. and a consequent Inactivity of the
Bowels, causlng-n disorganization of evety„function of the
frame, will, in this most excellent preal..ation, by a little
perseverance, be effectually removdlL Two• or three
(lases will convince the afflicted of its salutary effects.
The Stomach will speedily regain its strength ; a healthy
action of the Liver, Bowels, and Kidneys will rapidly
take place; and instead of listlessness. heat, pain, and
jaundiced appearance, strength, activity, and renewed
health, will he the quick result of taking this Medicine
according to the directions accompanying each box.
These Pills are particularly efficacious for Stomach
Coughs, Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and all
Obstructions of the Urinary Passages ; and if taken after
too free an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the
system to its natural state of repose. _

Persons of a FULL HABIT, who are subject to
Head-ache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the
Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head,
should never be without them, as many dangerous symp-
toms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use.
For FEMALES, these Pills are most truly excellent,
removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so
very prevalent with the sex ; Depression of Spirits, Dull-
ness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and
Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile
bloom to the complexion.
To MOTHERS. they are confidently recommended as
the best medicine that can be taken during pregnancy :
and for children of all ages they are unequalled.
As a pleasant, safe, easy Aperient, they unite the re-
commendation of a mild operation with the most success-
ful effect, and require no restraint of diet or confinement
during their use. By regulating the dose according to
the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable
for every case, in either sex, that can be required ; and for
elderly people they will be found to be the most comforta-
ble Medicine hitherto prepared.
