FRIENDLY SOCIETIES.• The two millions of members of enrolled Friendly Societies could not do better with the next hall-crown they may have at liberty than buy Mr. Hardwick'. manual. Any five of them that may think it worth sixpence apiece to learn their prospects as members had better get the book, and study it as they would study a prophecy of what is to become of them. They know who Mr. Hardwick is. The general public may not, so we will just explain that Mr. Hardwick is unquestionably competent to the useful task he has undertaken, having held the most responsible offices in the Man chester Unity, and been grand master of the Inde pendent Order of Odd Fellows in that Unity. He has lectursdlextenevely on the subject of Friendly Bccietiee ' never failing to convince all listeners of the perils which at present attend those associations, and his researches and calculations have been ac cepted and authenticated by actuaries, as correct expositions of the real financial character and pros peeta or the benefit clubs of the kingdom, under their various names. As his researches relate to funds amounting to above nine millions of pounds sterling, the property of above two millions of mem bers,—and a kind of property on which depends their independence and self-respect amidst the changes of human life—the subject is too important to be over-looked by anybody w no has the respecta bility sad enders of the werkieg claws at heart. We hope therefore that while the two millions of Mr. Hardwick's comrades in Benefit Clubs will be come acquainted with the results of his studies, the rest of society will take heed to the facts, and COS. sider what can be done to avert the dangers which impend, and to prevent the wreck of the earnest and rational hopes which are invested in the Friendly Societies of Great Britain, under their variety of queer titles. The history of such associations given by Mr. Hardwick, and the sketch of the progress of actua ries in discovering the true principles of insurance are interesting ; but for these we must refer our readers to the book itself. The all-engrossing im portance of the volume is in its revelation of the immure state of the insurance on which many thou sands of men have reeled their hopes. If the wisest men were unaware a century ago of some of the leading principles of calculation of the value of life, health, and deposited money, it is no wonder that working men whose attention has never been turned to such subjects should be igno rant of the existence of even any doubt in the most precarious cases. In hundreds of Friendly Societies it has never occurred to any member that there is mach less sickness among young men than among the middle-aged, and less in the middle-aged than the old; and therefore the young men of twenty have been required to pay the same sub scription from the beginning as the men of five-and-thirty, or rather the elder men have not been required to pay more than the younger; and thus, when the time came for sick-allowances, the need ' of which was always increasing with the col lective age of the members, the money was all spent (or is now diminished far below the solvent point), before the younger members can get their share. In their day of need, they find that their savings have gone to support the senior members, and there is little or nothing left for them. As long as their officers announced at their meetings that the reserve fund amounted to this ,or that they cheered the re port, and supposed themselves prosperous, not con sidering whether the fund was sufficient to meet the claims upon it which must be ooetinually increasio till the first generation of subscribers had away, and young men enough had entered to 811 the places of those who were growing elderly. If a man of twenty has, on the average, only half • week's sickness in the year, and the prospect of subscribing for forty years, and if the man of forty has the prospect of double the sickness yearly, and little more than half the years before him to subscribe in, it is a cruel injustice to the young man and an undue favour to the elderly one to make them pay alike. It is actually found that the sickpay required for members above sixty was so gnat that the only thing to be dons was to commute it late a pension; and all such discoveries have been made at the expense of the members who could wait Ingest; that is, at the expense of the youngest. Many are the sufferers who, after paying insur ease through the best years of their lives, have seen their society break up, paying a dividend or not, as might happen. The Registrar's report informs us (p. 3) of the existing state of things. Notices of dissolution have been received from 58 societies during the year ending 31st December, 1858. and since that time the number has considerably increased; the muses of diewolution generally arising from the claims made on the funds by pensioners, the number of the members being small, sad no Mamma e( young members, Sinai the passing of the Arm Friendly Society Act in 1793 to the 31st of December, 1858, the number of friendly societies enro ll ed and certified is 28,660, and of that number 6,860 have used to said. The Registrar observes on the smallness of the number of members as a common cause of failure; and Mr. Hardwick is particularly emphatic on this. He shows that the average of sickness and death as be reckoned upon only in the case of large num bers, small societies being in perpetual danger of wreck from a very insignificant iceman of sick ness or accidental deaths; whereas the larger the numbers the nearer is the approach to a uniform rate of calls upon the funds. Mr. Hardwick tells us of lodges consisting of twenty members, or a dozen, or less, at a time when the average throughout the Manchester Unity was only sixty-six ; and yet, to secure the treasury against a run,and to obtain steadi ness in the course of affairs, no number short of five hundred is sufficient. Judging from the results of the peat experience which 1 have emunined, I should not recommend any society to remain content with a smaller number than five hundred members. A thousand would be sal better. Eves hare there would be Ilantuations, notwithstanding every precaution may have bees taken ; but the larger the numb*/ the leas will be the imewalarity. This fundamental error of proposing to pay out more money than comes in, in the long run, is the most prominent muse of failure in friendly societies ; but there are others quite su ffi cient to bring on • fatal result. Mr. Hardwick laments the prejudioe of even leading members against the protection of law—against any use of the act of parliament which was pained altogether for the sake of such societies. In • passage too long to quote, our author exposes the mischief of this prejudice, and shows that there is no interference with the free action of members in placing their re!fgoversswient and the observance of their own rules under the protection of the law. This piece of argument, extending from pp. 138 to 164, is particularly worthy the attention of all who have anything at stake in such institutions. It refers to the excuse so often heard from members that, if they choose honest office-bearers,they condo very well without the help of the law. As Mr. Hardwick remarks, every office-bearer that ever was entrusted with the funds of any society was believed in, very confidently, when he was selected for his office. Yet the absconding or defaulting of treasurers and secretaries has been no very rare circumstance. Again, there is a constant difficulty in finding honest and capable men willing to serve, while the vain, and idle, and ignorant are more easily obtainable. The sensible and conscientious man is aware of what be is undertaking, not only of the hard work of a secretary, which is really enough to wear a man out, it added to his own occupation, but of the pressure of unreasonable members, and of the disagreeable things which are thought and said by ill-informed men when they find matters going otherwise than as they wish. The members do not look after their sick comrades as they might; they leave it to the office-bearers, and sup pose without inquiry that the surgeon's certificate is duly obtained; and, after carelessness like this, they are too apt to fancy causes for the expenditure which they have taken no pains • A Manuel for the Use of Friendly ficaletiet.

Facts.liks those came main an incidental way in the course of the author's argument in favour of large soeieties,io which there Is of course a larger °holm of men for cake. . _ Another ems of failure in a easeiderable masher of clubs is the inattention of the sassibess to trio states of health in diffarent ocenpatiena localities, and other circumstances.

Again: there are enormous difilirencee in the prosperity oUsociettes, amording to the inreinmenta closes for their reserve fends. Though the act precludes amain investments--aoch as the pinwheel of lands and houses (for obvious ramsons)—it leaves a large variety open; and the .41,iffsrence between lending money at 2 or 24 per mat. and at 5 may be just the difference betwesa • poruparous and an insolvent society. Coaaidating these various cameo of failure (which yet are =tali Met are exhibited by oar anther) it is no wood. doe too prospects of so many societies aro gloomy, and that so many have been broken up. In 1849, the Housed Cammons was informed that of 120 inmates of the Birmingham workhorse, not young and ablirbodied, 6 o had been members of broken clubs. Out of sixteen bedridden paupers, oaoe club members, thirteen were wholly disap pointed of aid, from the exhaustion of the funds be fore their turn came. In the Winchester union workhouse, 20 out of 29 paupers had belonged to societies which had broken up. Dismal as this is, it is no more than might have been expected after what Mr. Ansel], the actuary, has told us • that, oat of shoat 4,000 societies whom affairs he h ad investi gated, " not one was in a perfectly sound financial conditios." (P. 82.) Society men do not like to hear such thin" They refuse to listen ; they refine to believe.

There is, ae we were saying,•difficulty in bringing men to face the truth,unlese they arebrave and patr ons, like the specimens just shown; bat this is one of the saddest facts of all, bonus despair ruins every thing, and there is no reason for despair. Our author relates the ease of several societies which have ewer. tainted their position, and have acted accordingly. It is fearfal to discover that while members have supposed they were all right, because there was a food of 60,0061., there was an actual deficiency of 10,0001., the inevitable claims amounted to 60,0001. Yet, by timely seal, sacrifice, and alteration of the terms, it may be possible to go on, or to close with out total lass of character. Members may tax themselves to make up the deficiency in course of years ; or they may increase the entrance fees, or graduate the payments for the time to come; or they may pay a dividend, and disperse, or begin again. If they will bat refuse to go on in a fatal course, ail may end at least without dispose. It is probable that no one but read this book, sines its publication, without the thought paring through his mind that there can be nothing but rain in pros peet for members of thrice unions, in which other objects are mixed up with the relief of the sick and payment of pensions and burials. Mr. Hardwick shows very clearly the importance of keeping these objects absolutely and always separate from any ether whatever, insisting that even the expenses of management should be considered and provided fee apart. How utterly hopeless, then, are the beneficial objects of trades unions, while the funds are liable to be used for the support of strikes ! It would be • cruel blow to the building trades of London to learn this at the present moment; yet those would be their best friends who could convince them of it with the leant loss of time. After all that has been said--after the disappoint. ments that have been endured, and the discredit incurred—friendly societies are such good things in their nature and effect, such a bulwark to the inde pendence of the labouring classes, such a charter of their social liberties, such an encouragement to fore thought and self-denial, such a steppingstone to ease and comfort, such a sanction to the domestic virtues, that no man with a heart in his breast could en dure the thought of giving them up. And there is not the least occasion to think of it. The worst days are over—the days when actuaries themselves were ignorant of many particulars essential to the sound ness of every kind of life and health insurance. The principles of such insurance are now well enough understood—by Mr. Hardwick for one—to afford the means of rectifying the societies which have erred from mere ignorance, and of organising new ones on safe terms. No man could exhibit the faults and dangers of such associations more boldly than Mr. Hardwick ; and no man can be more anxious fee their regeneration and prosperity. In the hope that his volume will go through many editions, we would suggest to him the alteration of two or three passages which are unworthy of the rest of the book. At page 230 he falls foul of the Registrar on the topic of the anniversary dinner of most friendly societies, and of the drinking and waste of funds caused by meetings being held, and business transacted, at public-houses. Whether anniversary festivals do most good or harm le a fair matter of opinion, on which men may differ without mischief or discredit. It is another question—a question of fact—whether such festivals are contemplated by the act as part of the liabilities of the funds. In his recent report, Mr. Tidd Pratt has shown that this is a subject of bitter discontent among members of friendly societies, some of whose appeals to himself he has published, with the omission of names. One secretary complains that it thus costs each member 84. a year to lay up Ifs. A member writes that if he does not attend, at a cost of 141. Bd. (including the lest day's work) he will be fined 2s. 6d.; " which," as he says, " is a heavy fine on us who have got families to keep." Others complain that a society with diminishing funds has paid for making little boy. drunk for a lark ; and that a sum of 31. from the funds was voted for liquor, after dinner, and against the wishes of many member.. There can be no question of the slaty of the Registrar to bring forward such facts, when thus appealed to ; while it is equally open to Mr. Hard wick to exhibit the favourable side of these celebra tions, which he does in a very cordial way. Mr. Tidd Pratt's attention was walled to a registered law which made it necessary for hlm to declare whether such feasts are or are not contemplated by the act; and Mr. Hardvrick's comment is that the Registrar is influenced by gentlemen " who regard the slightest convivial enjoyment by working men as little short of open profanity." This is an unworthy view of a question of fiat. By this time, Mr. Hardwick mall have read in the meat report the account of a suc cessful resistance at law to a perversion of the funds to the purchase of drink. This is at p. 18 of the report ; and at p. 17 is a shockiog set of bills for beer charged on the anniversaries of the last three yaws. We have no doubt that Mr. Hardwick is right in his view and argument that friendly sovietise pro mote temperance on th e w hole ; but this is no reply to the proved allegation that large sums of are spent in drink which are the property of the and aged of the society. (Stamped ld. Mciatigag.) i T WOPENe_g: • Another connected fact is that in pink!" v4 ll 4lC l ' every public-house has, or tries to have, its clu I and thus there are several societies couaistieg 6f a dangerously small number of members, instead of one mature association, meeting rospectabiy in a sehool-room or private house. The reforms which have already taken place, and the petitions to the registrar not to countenance any expenditure ou in toxicating liquours, afford at onoe a justification of his view., aid encouragement to hope that the abase is waft to an end. Mr. Hardwick bad better throw out, on the first epportuaity, his remarks on Mr. Tidd Prates sob stitution of other terms for the " regalia " af friendly emisties. The truth is, Mr. Hardwick cad his eau melee are not aware that the registrar cannot allow the term to stand in any legal document, bemuse it is radically &ias applied - to the flap and symbols of any clubs. The rymbols of royalty are "regalia," end neshiatalee can be so, as Johnson's Dictionary shows. The clubs evidently thiak that any showy symbols may be called by the name t but this is a mistake. The crown, sceptre, orb, &c., of the Sovereign, belonging to the throne of England, are the only regalia possible in England, and the sooner the clubs drop the word the bitter. If they can find a better term than Mr. Tidd Pratt has been able to hit upon, he will probably be happy. to adopt it ; but any ridicule or scorn of him for draw ing his pen through it in revising rules which are to be put under the protection of the law does not app* to him, but to the blunder which he cannot endorse. The most unfavourable influence still existing to regard to the societies is the *lone 'pint of the least enlightened members, who Amoy that they have enemies in every clam, even in their own. They fancy that parliament wants to fetter them ; that the registrar wants to interfere with them ; that their employers frown on their plan of in surance ; and that their own chosen offioers want to wrong them, and domineer over them. As to their own ezeoutive, they most look to that for,themselves. Their policy and their duty is to choose men whom they can trust, and • keep them up to their duty by themselves taking an interest in their sick and aged members, and in the :periodical revisions of their offal, which ought to be a part of their system at action. This natant and proper oheck being pro vided, there ought to be no room left for suspicion and discontent, such as no honest office bearers can be expected to endure. As for the rest, we trust the Passed Grand Master, who understands the whole matter, will use his great influence to convince his comrades that the Act of Parliament and the Registration Office have been provided in pure good will and consideration for them, and that the whole of educated society is in favour of the institution of friendly societies, provided they are on a sound basis. Clergy and gentry have abundantly shown this by their assistance, and not nnfrequently by becoming members, and placing their know ledge and their time at the service of the members. Mr. Hardwick emphatically notion this. It is, for that matter, the clear in terest of the whole of society that benefit clubs should exist and answer. they tend to raise the respectability of the working-classes, and to keep down the rates. They benefit ►ll concerned, and can hurt nobody, while they are so managed as to answer their purpose. If there is one institution more than another that'll olasses have reason to value and wish well t% it is that of provident societies ; and all elassjimloosy in regard to them le purely gratuitous, mischievous, and absurd. When the societies are rescued from danger, the members will be independent of all criticism, if any existed. Bo thinks our author ; and he shows how, in his opinion, it may be done. His words are worthy of deep consideration : The sorer the afflizatment is effeeted by all theold esteem tbe batter. But bow is it is b. secemplishel P Tlr " way' lees we retrying's& sweemy suppose when tbe ...lir is guided by fatalness. Lee eke prase members procure a comet valuation of their sweets and liabilities, and consent to receive only such a dividend on their claims as can honestly be pad to them. Thee, new members might be edmitted on the equitably graduated rates of contribution indketed by statistical science, without injury to their legitimate inters" either . present or prospective. • • Thus it will be seen the difficulty of adjustment is not very great, when the omicron ie fully understood. It merely requires a little moral courage, a firm determination to we justly to both ourselves and other., and the thing is accomplished. Even if we look apes It in the most selfib light, ts It not (esting aide its justice) well worth the trifling sacrifice in use shape of the additional contributioo, when the reward is all that white truly brave men prize beyond all others—au approving cap science f Nay, when we eee friends of the people and of social miner voluntarily expending both time, money, sad labour with the view of advancing the interest mad happiness of the masses, is It too mach to expect from the most Swill. 'set portion of the people the little sacrifice alluded to, when that sacrifice will be the means of placing for the future on • sound foundation those institutions in which they justly take the highest pride, the offspring of their own forethought, tree independence, sad honourable self•respect ? This finan cial sdjuatment, pregnant with such important melts, may be easily accomplished, if we make up our minds to practically exhibit our &kb in one of the great doctrines of Clarienazity and Oddfellowship, namely, to "do unto others as we wish they should do untous." If we promise an assurance, we have made a contract ; and It is at least our duty to make the engagement in good feith, and to do all that lies in our power to provide for its future fulfilment. No smount of ostentatious benevolence, or even truly cheritable almsgiving, though it may perhaps slightly palliate in the eyes of some, can ever justify, to the consciences of honourable men, systematic deception, or false pretension of any kind, however amiable its adjuncts sr vane rable its formulas.
