TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, THE HE 30th inst. having been fixed for the election of a Director for the vacancy occasioned by the death of General Robertson, I have the honour to intimate to you that proxy papers will, in the course of a few days, be forwarded for the signature of such of my supporters as may prefer that mode of recording their votes in my favour, and request that such as may be absent, or about to leave their residences, will kindly favour me with their address, in order to insure the early return of those necessary documents. I have the honour to avail myself of the present opportunity to return my cordial thanks to my supporters and friends, and to assure them that their continued kind exertions will render the success of the contest beyond a doubt. I have the honour to remain, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient and faithful servant, London Tavern, June 18th, 1847. J. CAULFEILD. TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, I HAVE now the honour to inform you that the ballot for the election of a Director of the East-India Company will take place on Wednesday, the 30th of June. I beg to offer my grateful thanks for the promised support of a numerous and influential body of proprietors, and for the zealous and unwearied exertions of my friends, which enable me to look forward to the result of the contest with perfect confidence of success. My Committee meet daily at the London Tavern, where communications from my friends will be thankfully received. I have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, London Tavern, June 16th, 1847. I WM. J. EASTWICK. TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, HAVE announced, through the public newspapers, my intention to leave the contest for the vacancy in the East-India Direction, occasioned by the decease of Major-General A. Robertson, to be continued by the two candidates who have already stood the ballot unsuccessfully; and I feel that I owe to my supporters, and to the proprietors at large, an explanation of the reason of my not also coming forward. The contest at the last annual election is still of very recent date, and those candidates who were personally engaged in it have, in consequence, advantages which there has not been time for me to ascertain by a complete canvass, that I had overtaken. From the accident, also, of my position, I divide with one of the candidates, whose service was of the same presidency, several powerful interests, so that my coming forward would be a source of disunion to friends who wished well to both, and of vexatious trouble to the proprietors, through the multiplication of candidates for the ballot. Having under these circumstances yielded, not without reluctance, to the advice of those who have recommended me to defer my coming forward till the next occasion, I submit myself to the indulgence of my friends and supporters, relying upon the continuance of their support and interest, to secure my election at the very next vacancy, when I pledge myself most certainly to proceed to the ballot. I have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, With great respect, Your most obedient and obliged humble servant, 37, Hyde Park Gardens, June 14th, 1847. TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, I HAVE the honour to announce to you that it is not my intention to come forward on the occasion of the vacancy in the direction of your affairs, created by the lamented death of General Robertson; at the same time, it is most gratifying to me to state that, during my canvass, but recently commenced, I have received such encouragement and promises of support as to justify me in anticipating, through your favour, at no distant period, the accomplishment of the object of my ambition. I have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, Everton House, Bedfordshire, June 10th, 1847. TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, THE HE melancholy death of Major-General Robertson has caused a vacancy in the direction of your affairs. This lamented event has come upon me so suddenly, and so recently after the late vacancy, that I do not feel justified in proceeding to the ballot on the present occasion; and, in taking the earliest opportunity of thus apprizing you of my intentions, I trust I may look with confidence to your support on the occurrence of the next I have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your faithful and obedient servant, vacancy. 23, Park Crescent, June 10th, 1847. I J. A. MOORE. TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, DO myself the honour to inform you that it is not my intention to proceed to the ballot on the vacancy occasioned in your direction by the death of my friend, General Robertson. I still hope, by the kindness of your favour, on some future occasion to obtain the object to which I pretend. I have the honour to remain, Ladies and Gentlemen, 99, Westbourne Terrace, June 11th, 1847. I TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST-INDIA STOCK. Ladies and Gentlemen, LOSE no time in intimating to you that it is not my intention to proceed to the ballot upon the vacancy in the direction of your affairs, occasioned by the sudden and lamented death of the late General Robertson. I take this opportunity of expressing my grateful thanks for the truly flattering reception l'have met with in my canvass, and trust that the result of the present election may release many of the friends who have kindly promised me their eventual support from a portion of their engagements, and thus place me at an early perlod in a position to solicit your suffrages with every prospect of success. I have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, 2, Upper Hyde Park Street, June 10th, 1847. THE of Africa and South America. Compiled, chiefly from original journals of the Hon.

DUNCAN FORBES begs to inform his friends HE BRITISH WORLD in the EAST; a GUIDE, and patrons that he has removed from 8, Alfred Street, Bedford Square, LIA, SOUTH AFRICA, and the other possessions or connections of Great Britain in the Eastern and Southern Seas. By LEITCH RITCHIE. The object of this work is to embody every thing of a practical nature that is known of the countries in question, in an historical description of the course of that great eastward stream of commerce and colonization which has commenced a new era in the destinies of the world. "The title-page of this book scarcely does justice to its merits. The book is, indeed, something better than a Guide,' in the common conventional acceptation of that word. It is a very interesting, and in some respects philosophical, survey of the rise, progress, and present position of the British Empire in the East. It is the best introduction, with which we are acquainted, to a more minute and extensive study of Eastern history. It is not a mere record of events-the dry bones of chronology-but it is a series of illustrations of the Eastern world,-social, political, religious, geographical, statistical,-embracing an immense tract of country, from Scinde to the extremities of China, and including all the distant islands of the Eastern Archipelago, and ranging out as far as New Zealand, New South Wales, and the islands of the Pacific. The first volume is devoted entirely to our Indian Empire; the second to China, the Malay Peninsula, the Indian Archipelago, the Mauritius, the Cape, Australia, and Tahiti. We have seldom seen so large a matter, condensed in so small a space, with so little sacrifice of the amenities of style and the interest of individual detail."-Atlas. "The book will become invaluable for reference, since it embraces all the leading circumstances in the histories and position (social and political) of Indía, China, and Australia."-Court Journal. "It was with no slight expectation that we sat down to a perusal of his (Mr. Ritchie's) volumes; and we must do him the justice to say, that our anticipations have been more than realized. By judicious arrangement, and by skilfully and forcibly exercising the art of condensation, he has succeeded in drawing within one lucid focus an infinite variety of subjects, all more or less interesting and important."-Naval and Military Gazette. "As a book of reference it will always possess considerable value."-John Bull. "Carefully collected, skilfully put together, and ably edited in every respect, so far as so vast a subject could be got within a fair readable compass, this publication is one of the greatest utility, reminding us in some measure of the admirable encyclopædic productions of a McCulloch. There is candour and moderation in all Mr. Ritchie's views, and his narrative is at once succinct and comprehensive. For reference on all the important matters which concern our wonderful colonization, we could not desire a better guide; and we recommend it most heartily to the success which, indeed, must attend it, without our wellmerited panegyric."-Literary Gazette.

ESULTORY NOTES on the GOVERNMENT and PEOPLE of CHINA, and on the CHINESE LANGUAGE. trated with a Sketch of the Province of Kwang-Tung, shewing its division into Departments and Districts. Illus By THOMAS TAYLOR MEADOWS, Interpreter to Her Britannic Majesty's Consulate at Canton. "Mr. Meadows' Notes are deserving of general attention."-Literary Gaz. "Mr. Meadows appears to have read and studied deeply the mysteries of the Chinese language, so as to fit himself for his official duties, and in these modest but extremely useful Notes he has thrown much curious light on the different styles of speaking and writing in China, and on the customs and habits of the people. He also corrects many popular errors and ridiculous notions and ideas, which have long been prevalent, as to the denizens of the Celestial Empire. Besides the many useful hints and good business advice contained in these pages, the book abounds with pleasant paragraphs and humorous illustrations of the sang froid and peculiarities of the different classes of society."-Colonial Mag., June, 1847. "It is the work of a man in every respect qualified to throw light upon the subject of which he treats."-New Monthly Mag., June, 1847. This volume will not fail to be extensively read and consulted. Among a variety of other subjects treated of by Mr. Meadows, the civil divisions of the different provinces of China, the duties and incomes of the Mandarins, and of the inferior agents of government, may be particularly mentioned. Another point of interest in this work will be found in its representations of Mandarin Costume, beautifully, and we have no doubt correctly, coloured."-United Service Mag., June, 1847.

RECOLLECTIONS of INDIA in the Years 1845 and 1846. In Two Parts. By the Hon. CHARLES HARDINGE. Part I. British India and the Punjab; Part II. The Jullunder Doab and Kashmir. All the Original Sketches from which the Lithographic Drawings in this work have been executed, were made by Mr. Hardinge on various occasions, since the departure of the Governor-General of India from Calcutta in the autumn of 1845. The portraits of the Maharajah Dhulep Sing, Lal Sing the Wuzer, and of Maharajah Gulab Sing, are exact fac-similes of the likenesses taken by Mr. Hardinge at Lahore in February, 1846. The two sketches of the battle of Ferozuhah and of the out-post of Rhodawala, as well as several views near Lahore, were all done upon the spot, and the former but a very few hours after the signal victory to which it has reference. The other sketches were drawn either in the Punjab or during the tour of the GovernorGeneral to the Upper Provinces. The most interesting only out of a consi derable number have been selected. The water-colour sketches for this work made on the spot by the Hon. Charles Hardinge, have the advantage of being Lithographed by Mr. J. D. Harding, with his recent improvements in the Art; this being the first and only work that has been executed by Mr. J. D. Harding in this new and beautiful style, and Printed at the Lithographic Printing Office, 70, St. Martin's-lane.

London: THOMAS M'LEAN, 26, Haymarket. an ordery month, is to give, HE ATLAS FOR INDIA.-The object of this publi THE in a condensed form, the news of the preceding fortnight, up to the hour of the mail's departure, collected and arranged with especial reference to the requirements of the Indian public. Whilst matter not affecting the interests of, or calculated in any manner to entertain the Indian reader, is scrupulously excluded, the utmost pains are taken to obtain from every possible sourceoften from original and exclusive sources-information of peculiar interest to residents in the Indian presidencies, Ceylon, China, and the Straits. The better to secure the accomplishment of this desirable end, and to render the publication in every respect what it professes to be, an ATLAS FOR INDIA, the management has been placed in the hands of a gentleman recently editor of one of the leading daily journals of Calcutta. The ATLAS FOR INDIA is not a mere reproduction of the principal contents of the weekly paper, but is in a great measure written expressly for Indian circulation. It contains a compendious narrative of the principal domestic and foreign events of the fortnight; military and commercial intelligence; literary and social chit-chat; items of personal news, &c. &c. Every number embraces a general summary of the news of the past fortnight, written expressly for this journal, regard being had to the relative importance and interest of the different events touched upon, in the eyes of the AngloIndian reader. It is the endeavour of the conductor of the ATLAS FOR INDIA, not only to give a condensed historical narrative of political events, but to catch the tone and temper of the times, and embody in the pages of this journal all that lighter fabric of social and literary intelligence, past, present, and prospective, which, in this age of progress, is so abundant in every great European metropolis.
