JL THE A S A M TEA COMPANY. A SAM, a British Colony, of growing importance, situate on the very verge of China, ranks among the most interesting of our East Indian Possessions, for the continuous improvement of this Province, in &. general sense, under the auspices of the Asam Company." The exertions and capital of the "ASAM TEA COMPANY" are, however, especially devoted to bringing into general repute a SELF-PECULIAR & INDIGENOUS TEA PLANT PRODUCED IN A|AM» which is deservedly classed with the most important of our Colonial productions for its SURPASSING Qll ALl fIES. The Asam Tea possesses, from the fitness and richness of the soil, virtues apart from and supenor to any other leaf, even in a wild state, and FOR STRENTH, AS WELL AS FLAVOUR, IS UNAPPROACH- ABLE by any of the Chinese Plants, which properties have been, and still will be, infinitely improved by experienced Anglo-Chinese cultivation. Therefore, besides is indescribably fine flavour, its very superior strength guarantees an ECONOMY ATTENDANT ON ITS CONSUMPTION, which must necessarily render it a domestic acquisition of incalculable advantage. The "Asam TEA Company" are also Shareholders in the "Asam Company," and therefore have an interest in, and depend for success entirely on, the peculiar and intrinsic qualities of the Asam Tea, which, for these reasons, they furnish 111 a pure and genuine state, by means of advertised Agents, not interested in their allitera- tion, in packets duly scaled and labelled, "ASAM TEA COMPANY, 11, CROOKED LANE, KING WILLIAM STREET," City of London, where applications and communications will be duly and promptly attended to.

Tf^HE objects of this Railway are to connpct the great Iron Districts of Merthyr-Tidvil, Rhymney, &e., with the j proposed Welsh Midland Railway, at Brecon, and consequently with the Railway system of the Midland and Northern parts of the Kingdom. To convey Coal, Iron, Tin Plates, and other Metals, by the shortest route, to the intermediate districts and to Birmingham, as well as to the Ports of Liverpool and Birkenhead, this being the shortest communication by several miles between the Iron and Coal Districts of Merthyr-Tidvil and its Neighbourhood, and the Midland and Northern parts of England, as well as Scotland, by which Passengers, Traffic, as well as Metals and other produce destined for those Districts will be seeured to this Railway. In conjunction with the proposed Welsh Midland Railway, to connect the places on and near this proposed line with Birmingham and Staffordshire, and the Salt Works of Worcestershire and Cheshire, and to give facilities for the introduction of Timber and the Agricultural produce of Worcester, Hereford, Brecon, Radnor, and the adjoining Counties, into the densely-populated Manufacturing Districts of Merthyr-Tidvil and its Neighbourhood. A most important feature for the success of this undertaking is the cordial support with which it has been received by the Landowners along the Line. Power will be taken in the Bill to allow Interest at £4 per cent. per annum on all deposits and calls from the time of payment until the opening of the Line. That one-fourth of the Capital will be reserved for local interests, and the remainder, with any proportion of the local reserve not taken up, will be divided amongst the Shareholders of the Welsh Midland Railway, in a form to be hereafter announced, and that no other applications will be received.

NEW ENVELOPE. IN consequence of the great variety of counterfeit Envelopes of ROWLAND'S KALYDOll, and other disreputable means resorted to by unprincipled individuals for imposing on the public their hiirhly-pernicious compounds under the title of K A LYI)O! the Proprietors and sole Preparers of the Original and Genuine Preparation acting under a sense of duty, and regardless of expense in the attain- ment of their object—THE PROTECTION OF THE PUBI-IC FROM FRAUD AND IMPOSITION, have employed those cele- brated artists, Messrs. Perkins, Bacon, ind Co,, who have succeeded, at great cost, in producing from a steel plate a NEW ENVELOPE of exquisite beauty. It comprises a high I v-tin ished engraving of the GRECIAN GRACES standing on a classic pedestal, on each side of which is a rich profusion of Howers springing from an elegant cornucopia; these tastefully blending with Arabesque-scrolls and wreaths, encircle the Royal Arms of Great Britain, sur- mounting the words R O W LAN D'S K A L Y D 0 R," &c.,&c..&c.,whiist a plinth at the toot displays tfte Signa- ture of the Proprietors in red, thus- London, Jan. 1, 1845. Y. ROWLAND & SON ROWLAND'S KALYDOR, An Eastern Rotanical Discovery of surprising efficacy for •rendering the iSKIJ^pSOFT, ClftU-K^^ip-FAIR, And for bestowing a healthy, roseate hue on the COM- PLEXION. Asa creator and conservator of a transparently fair skin, ROWLANDS' KALYDOR may be said to exert an almost magical power. Composed for the most part of Oriental Balsamic Exotics, to the utter exclusion of all mineral admix- ture, it is distinguished for its extremely bland, purifying, and soothing effects upon the skin; and, by acting upon the pores and minute secretory vessels, expels all impurities from the surface, allays every tendency to inflammation, and thus effectually dissipates all REUNESS, TAN, PIMPLES, SPOTS, BLOTCHES, FRECKLES, SUNBURN, and other unsightly Cutaneous Visitations. The radiant bloom it im- parts to the CHEEK the softness and delicacy which it induces on the HANDS, ARMS, and NECK; its capability of soothing irritation and removing cutaneous defects, sallow- ness. and all unsightly appearances, render it indispensable to every toilet. It is invaluable as a renovating and refreshing Wash, in travelling, during the heat and dust of summer and, in cases of Sun-burn, Stings of Insects, or incidental Inflamma- tion, its virtues have long and extensively been acknowledged. To LADIES, during the period of suckling, it is of great importance: it affords relief to inflamed nipples, and cools and renders the infant's mouth truly comfortable. To GENTLEMEN afflicted with a tenderness of the skin in shaving, the application of the Kalydor will be found to allay all cuticular irritation, removing every pimple and all roughness, and rendering the skin soft and smooth.

OPINIONS OF Tilt- PRESS. We regard the work before us, The SILent Friend, as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know.

Age and Argus. "The Authors of The Silent Friend'* seem to be tho- roughly conversant with the treatment of a class of com- plaints which are we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusal.Era.

THE RAILWAY GUAGE QUESTION.—-The yet undeci- ded question of the guage, as invo'.ved i i the strug;o between the Oxford, Worcester, andWotvcrhamptou. and the Oxford and Rugby lines, represented by the. London and Birmingham and Great Western Companies, is still the chief topic of conversation in the raihvny world. Each party are making the most strenjious exer- tions to be fully prepared against the discussion of the question in the House of Lords, or for examination of the commission to be appointed as the result of Mr. Cobdcvs's motion. We think it highly probable (and hope such will be the case) that the subject will not be brought before the Peers, until the result of the labours oi the commissioners is known, as, although the Great Western party will endeavour to convince the public that it is '.i merely a question of the guage, but one as to which railway will be of the greatest public utility, it is quite clear that, once admit the principle of the admistuie. of guages of different widths, it becomes hard to imagine to what length it may be carried. It having been repeat- edly clearly shown that both principles have their advan tages as well as disadrantages, upon the whole, andlh: the public requirements are supplied as well by one us the other, it ought not, in the present state of railway affairs, to be a question whether the broad can adopt a few raor J inches of heating surface in the lire L ;x, than locomotives on the narrow guage possibly can, or whetho'* the in- creased width of a first-class carriage gives a million"ire a little more room to stretch his limbs, and lazily loll rl. his ease; but the great and paramount question is, shall the property in upwards of 2000 miles of railway, l:ud down on the narrow guage, under the compulsion of the Legislature itself, and which in speed. economy, and safety, has been proved to meet all the public demands —shall such property, representing: as it docs, between ^30,000,000 and £ 40,000,000 steiling, be liable to dete- rioration and spoilage, by carrying out the whims :1ltl fancies of engineering invaders, representing, it may truly be said, one company only, embracing a line and its branches, jointly of not more than 3JO miles we think there can be but one answer to the question. M e have- every respect for the talents of Mr. Brunei, and admire the spirited and energetic manner in which he broke through the tramels first forged by the Legislature, as to the width of guage, but we may buy gold too dear aud the narrow guage having spread itseif over the length and breadth of Great Britain, we fear we must contine that gentleman within his own territory. It is a convinc- ing proof of the confusion which iv;!l take p'ace o:i uu admixture of the guages, when we find a company pro- jected for the formation of iaHwavs with a eupital of ^4,000,000, in a dilemma, as to vr'.i t f.ue it shall wear beiote Parliament, and with a very strong inclination, like Janus, to put on two. The Great Welsh Junction Railway Company isi 01;^ paragraph of their prospectus call upon the directors oi all the narrow guage lines to support them before the Standing Orders' Committee and in another they state- that they shall be perfectly prepnrvd to by down t;:c narrow within the broad guage, and thus r.ccommodafo vehicles from the Great Western as well r.s other l'nes. We are no advocates for confining the energies and c terprize of engineering science, convince,! that in man;. points we are still in our infancy we would op?n thr widest possible door for the entrance of the spi, it (1:' improvement and advancement, and leave ihe arena f, their exertions free as the air we hieaihe but, when so- much property is at stake, we think it requires 1n.ore Ihao: common consideration, and we trust the commission to be appointed will take a just and. impartial view of »he- subject, and will hesitate ere they arrive at a dec! ion — Mininj t Journal,
