      In the metropolis there is little provision for scientific and artistic entertainments . The Panopticon is formed to supply this defect , and will afford the most interesting , intellectual , and at the same time , moral exhibition in the several branches of natural philosophy , industry , and the fine arts , ever before submitted to public inspection . Her most Gracious Majesty , •• being desirous of encouraging this laudable design , " has granted her Royal Charter incorporating the Association , thereby rendering every individual Shareholder free from personal responsibility for the acts , debts , or other engagements of the Association . No Shareholder , in fact , can by any possibility lone more than his stock or share in the Capital , namely , £ 10 per During the hours of exhibition , every Shareholder will be entitled to a free admission ; and every holder of 25 shares will have the further privilege of introducing a friend ; a holder of 50 shares may introduce two friends , and a holder of 100 shares will receive annually 1 U 0 single admission tickets ( only one to be used in the same day ) . , _ . _ ,.. ,.. The Panopticon has been brought under the notice of men of business , who , having entered closely into the necessary details of calculation , and allowing for contingencies , have confidently stated that a dividend of £ 10 per cent , per annum may easily be realized to the proprietors . After payment of the deposit of £ 1 per phare , two months ' notice will be given of each call of £ I per share , and it is believed that not more than five calls will be required . Interest at the rate of £ 4 per cent , per annum will be allowed , until the opening of the Institution , on the £ 6 per share paid in advance . Applications for prospectuses and for the remaining chartered shares to be made to the Secretary , No . 4 ? 8 , Strand , from ten till four o ' clock ; or to Messrs . Edward and Alfred Whitmore , Stock and Share Brokers , 17 , Change-alley , Cornhill . By order of the Council , E . MARMADUKE CLARKE , H . M . G . S . No . 428 , Strand .

      THE WORKING TAILORS ' ASSOCIATION , 34 , CASTLE-STREET , OXFORD-STREET , Opposite the Pantheon . A few Journeymen Tailors , anxious to rescue themselves and their class from the miseries and degradation consequent on unlimited competition , and from the abuse of the powers of capital as lately exhibited to the public by the Morning Chronicle newspaper , in his letters on " Labour and the Poor , " have resolved to seek a remedy in their own exertions rather than in any parliamentary enactment , and in some system which shall combine their own interest with the interests of other classes of society rather than in that return to old customs now chiefly advocated in the trade , by which the benefit of the master and journeyman ( but especially of the former ) is sought to be realized at the expense of the consumer . They have , therefore , united together on the cooperative principle , possessing first-rate talents in the Cutting and Working department , and being supplied by several benevolent gentlemen , with sufficient capital ( which they are anxious to pay back on the first opportunity ) , they have commenced business on extensive premises in Castle-street , Oxford-street , to which and the accompanying list of prices attention is respectfully invited . It will be seen from the latter that they are at once able to compete with the slopseller , whilst realizing a fair profit themselves . They are mutually bound to devote one-third of their net profits to the extension of their numbers . It now rests with the public to stamp their experiment with success by favouring them with a liberal measure of custom , and thereby demonstrate , on an ever-widening scale , that health , prosperity , and moral worth can be secured to the operatives , and cheapness guaranteed to the consumer , by the faithful realization of the brotherly and Christian principle of cooperation . They wish not to injure the trade of any truly " honourable" employer , and venture to hope that all who feel that custom itself ought to have its morality , and who are willing to do what in them lies towards dealing fairly by the operative , will help them by their sympathy , and , as far as possible , by their orders . All who are friendly to this experiment , and wish it to succeed , should give it all the assistance in their power , and recommend it to others . LIST OF PRICES . FOR CASH ON DELIVERY . £ 8 . d .
