NOTICE. [heading]
THE undersigned finding that personal application for settlement of accounts and notes of hand, has not had the desired effect, he, therefore, for the last time, gives notice, that all accounts, obligations, or goods, due him (unless settled to satisfaction before the 14th of May), will be placed in the hands of his lawyer, to sue for, without respect to persons. He would be very sorry to enforce the law against his friends and customers in general, but, it being his intention to quit the Colony in the month of May, he cannot, in justice to himself and friends, adopt but one measure, which he hopes will not be taken amiss - He further begs leave to observe to his punctual customers, that they, after settlement of last and former years' accounts, will again have such credit as business will allow him to give - but cannot, in future, do any commissions; and those whom it may concern, are hereby informed, that Mr. W. F. Dobbrauski, Jun. is by this fully authorised to settle all his affairs.

WHEREAS some doubts have arisen with respect to the Proclamation issued by His Excellency Governor Bentinck, on the 14th of February last, ordering all proceedings before the Court to be in future carried on in the English language;
Be it now ordered, that all suits pending before the Courts, and which have not yet been decided, shall be finished in the English language, as well as all new suits to be commenced.
Given under my Hand and Seal-at-Arms, at the King's House, this 18th Day of April, 1812, and in the 52d Year of His Majesty's Reign.

Acting Secretary.
GOD SAVE THE KING! [centered]

No European news having been received since Tuesday, we have concluded the detail of the Trial of High Treason commenced in our last; many parts of which are particularly interesting. Our chief domestic matter will be found to consist of two Proclamations from His Excellency the Acting-Governor - the one, summoning the Kiezers to meet him on the 27th instant, for the purpose of forming a Combined Court of Justice, for the two Colonies; and the other, directing, that all suits "pending before the Courts, and which have not yet been decided, shall be finished in the English Language, as well as all new suits to be commenced."

Shipping Intelligence. - The Diana, from Glasgow, and the Union, from Cork, are the only arrivals since our last. The Convoy sailed on Wednesday.

THE SUBSCRIPTION BALL. [heading]

A SOLILOQUY BY A LADY. [heading]

Subscribe, or not subscribe - that seems the question;
Whether it be nobler in their minds to suffer
The snear and side-bits of sarcastic Writers,
Or to take up pen, against their better-sense,
And, by subscribing, end them? - Subscribe - they would -
No doubt, if by that subscription they could give
A ball soon, and yet not augment the shocks
Their purses own to! - 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. - "Subscribe" - say they -
"Subscribe! perchance be dunn'd!" - Ay, there's the rub;
For in that dunning oft will ills ensue,
When they have shuffled off from day to day,
To no effect! There's the respect
That makes, methinks, subscribers slow;
For who would bear the frowns and threats of Duns,
The insult of Citation, law's expence,
The spur of Renovation and the grasp.
That Debtors oft of Apprehension feel,
When they might all these ills prevent
By not subscribing? - Who'd Deurwaarders dread,
And hide and sneak until the Sun is down,
But that the fear of something like a jail,
That oft' frequented [illegible], from whose bourn
No visitor soon comes - puzzles the will,
And makes them rather go without a Ball,
Than fly to the Treasurer's, and give a Good.
- Thus Poverty now makes cowards of no few,
And Gentlemen bef[illegible] of cash and spirit,
With this regard, their characters transform,
And gain the name - Shabby.

MR. THOMAS CUMING. [heading]

The following are Copies of the Addresses to this Gentleman, mentioned in our Paper of the 22d of February:

Thomas Cuming, Esquire.
                  Demerary.
Sir,
When you left this country for Europe, we found ourselves that your absence would be but temporary: and the prospect of your speedy return prevented us from testifying, in a public manner, our sincere regret on the departure of so valuable a member of the community.
Having, however, now understood that it is your determination to remain in Europe, we cannot forbear any longer supressing the high estimation in which we hold you, and the sense we entertain of the services you have rendered this country, during a residence of near fifty years. We shall always bear in remembrance the zeal you displayed, on all occasions, to advance the public good of the colony, and to contribute to the happiness of its inhabitants. Whilst this country was yet in an infant state, the industrious adventurer was always sure to receive, at your hands, the most hospitable reception, and to find in you a friend, whose helping-hand would assist him in [illegible] honest exertions. To the widow and the orphan, who bereft of their natural support, you have, in every instance, been a kind and generous protector; and in your public spirit, to your unremitting activity in promoting whatever appeared likely to prove for the general benefit, this colony is in no small degree indebted for the prosperity it has since attained; as, in like manner, many of its inhabitants owe to your liberal and disinterested assistance, as well as to the good advice which your long experience enabled, and your inclination always prompted, you to give them, the success which has attended their labours, and led them to wealth and independence.
A conduct so uniformly marked by public and private virtue, ought not, we conceive, to remain unnoticed; and we trust that the testimony we now bear to its excellence will not be the less acceptable to you as coming from a number of your late brother-colonists, who have, for a series of years, been witness of your worth; and who, as a more lasting mark of the high consideration and esteem in which your character will ever be held by them, solicit your acceptane of a piece of plate, of the value of 500 guineas, with a suitable inscription, expressive of their sentiments, to be presented to you in their names.
May be consciousness of having done all the good in your power to your fellow-creatures shed peace and comfort on your remaining days, and that every happiness which this world affords, may attend the evening of your life, in the fervent wish of,
Sir,
Your very obedient servants,
Alexander Macrae, [right pointing brace, indicating 'Committee.']
