THE PROVIDENT LIFE-OFFICE- was the ori ginal Office which effected Insurances upon the principle of combining the security of an adequate permanent Capital (in Mclitibn to the fluctuating Funds arising front the Premiums) with the beneficial rule of returning, at stated periods, the sur pin of the Annual Premiums to the Contributors, after paying loses and expenses. The importance of this improvement is acknowledged by extraordinary public approbation, and by the nemerous imitations of it, which new Offices have lately offered, and which older' ones have adopted, invkanging their constitu tion. The principle is of chief value, because as it yields, by the specific sums insured, and the return of the surplus, thin fut. lest value for the deposits, persons have no reasonable motive for venturing on the lure of reduced and insufficient premiums, which hat led to such frequent instances of disappointment and ruin. Bonuses of £l3 Bs. and .M 6 Ifts. per cent. have been divided drug the last fourteen years. Permission is granted to all persons whose lives aft; insured at this Office (not being mariners in the exercise of their proles siso),to pass by sea in whole-decked vessels or steanr-boats from one part of the United Kingdom to another, and also in time of ram from British to the Foreign Ports between the Terri and Brest inclusive, without License and extra Premium, as is gene :ay required. Military Men insured at this Office are • not charged with any additional Premium, unless called into actual service. No Admission Fees are required, not is any charge made for Policies, except the Stamp Duty. Advantages thus extensive and substantial having been con saintly realised during a period of seventeen years, under the plan and management of this Office, the Public will readily sp ry:slate the difference between the value of Policies issued by this Office and by others. Agents are appointed in. all.the principal. Towns. • SOCIETY for the D ISCH A It GE and RELIEF of PERSONS IMPRISONED for SMALL DEBTS. Craven-street, Strand, May 7, 1823.

Great and &dn. gashed, however, as the honour is which that high situation confers, it is one which, if I had the good fortune to attain, I could nut consent to hold, but with the conscientious deternsinaJ don of fulfilling the duties it imposes in their strict and literal sense- With increasing calls upon my time and attention, arising from I a variety of family circumstances, I consider it would therefore be using unworthily the influence and good opinion of my frientis i to solicit a continuance of their favour, to place me in sa respell. slide a situation, now that I find my occupations will not allow me to give that attention to its duties which its importunen.their just expectations, and my own honour, would requiroot me. ' I retire from this pursuit with a heart deeply impressed wills gratitude for the•many proofs L have experienced of personal at. tachment and of esteem for my tunlln sod for the courteous sad polite'receptionl I have met with during my canvass. .

In the Appeal ter Townsend v. Warren,* which teas vilivoesi on Wednesday last (see the Sus of Thorsday).ou the motion of the Loan CHANctLLot, £lOO colts were awarded to respockies.s. " Sir James 1/ulist. the Earl of Fife" was partly heard. The Rochdale Gas Light Bill W. 43 read a thisd . tinw, passed, and messaged to the other licsse. • Both the quorum Magistrates' and Union Duties Bil:s were read a third time. MOm /A oW . kteeirr. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said, that he had the honour to present to aril : Tor/L - 1p the Repott . qf the Corn snittee which had bent appointed to invest :este the different Acts respecting the solemnisation of marriage. This Report was accompanied by a *Rik groWing obi, of the Report, which, when the latter had:seen read, he should the printing 01 the same. His Grace inbred that the Report should be now read. It stared that the Select Committee appointed by their Lordships to inquire into the details of former - Acts, and parti cularly the Act of last Session, 'for the future regulation of mar riages, satisfied of the inconveniences which had bees' occasionta by the several oaths connected with* the latter Act, thought it advisable to recomm e nd a recurrence to the former practice in the greater parr, which had endured the practlee of seventy years. It is further stated, that the. Cammdttee had recommended the exclusion, in a future Bill, of those dilatory and vezatiods forms and processes which had encumbered and impeded the operation of the Act of last Session ; and, iu like manner, a bet ter arrangement or classification of the Act of the 2tili of George 11. was advised, as likely to render its provisions more obvious, and thereby more useful. It was the opinion of the Committee, with respect to Mar riages by Banns, that no alteration should be made In the former law, except in extending the publication of banns toi and autho rising the solemnisation of matrimony in thoie new Churches and Chapels which were deficient in this respect. With regard to Marriages by licenses, the Committee had deemed it proper to recommend the, jnerrwluction and ol•setvance of new forms remaining otherwise oa thepresent footing, but secured by mutual bonds on either side. If Marriages by Llcaises cr by 11;nns'were not acted upon within three months from granting the same, then, in tither case, the formula must . he renewed. Additional penalties were proposed, by the Committee, for such-persons as falsely pretended to be In Holy Orders, for the purpose of solemnising marriages. But the Committee, quite sensible of the extent of the parental rights over children, and the coon nut of guardians over MitDol - 1; which were effected by the 46th of Geo. 11. proposed to substi tute a moral security for those rights. They observed, at the same time, that the task of conciliating the just tighrs.of parents with the true liberty of children was the most ctlkult point submitted for consideration, and, therefore, they had introuucrd a provision Which rendered all improper marriages voklatle within a period of twelve months, and making the perjured party on either side liable to the forfeiture of the property which was 'obtarated by such masrlages. _ With regard to the marriages both of Roman Catholics and Unitarian Dissenters. which came before the CoMmittee in con sequence of the various Petitions referred to them, the Com mittee bad not recommended any provisions in relation to Dis yeteers, who were so divided in opinion, and who, understand ing their .own difficulties. might provide remedies by some cii,tinct and separate means. It was upon those grounds that the Committee had con hued their attention to the facilitating and consolidating of such marriages as should hereafter be so lemnized by the National Church. His (race moved that the Report should be laid upon the table, and then printed, which was agreed to. bud F.I.LERBOROUGII.—" My Lords, I have not risen for the purpose of provoking a discussion at the present time, but I most protest, as I formerly did protest, against a pmviiioh in any Bill going to make the marriages of minors at all voidable 'l3) 1.,w. Your Lordships must remember that I objected to any such provisions last year, in. which opinion 1 had the gratification to be supported by the majority, I believe of this House. It appears to Me that the suggested clause in, I suppose, the forth. coming Bill, will be nugatory; as improper marriages may con tinue to be contracted by banns, while only those celebrated by lieimsea Were held to be voidable. If this interpretation of the meaning and purport of your Lordships' Committee be correct, it holds out,. I do not say intentionally,. strAng inducements to tfie profligate sons of our great families to seduce, and afterwards get rid, under the guise of law, of what, perhaps, I must call the weaker party, who are, however, in most cases the innocent and the deceived. My bards. you never will have discharged ooe of your highest duties, till the sacred indissolubility of the marriage union is secured from even the chances of Inteeruption. I roust, therefore, now object most decidedly to the obnoxious priuciple thus attempted to be intrcduced in the* forthcoming Btll ; and, easy Lords, I give respectful notice to the Most Reverend Pres late opposite, who introduced the Report in question, arid to 'the Noble and Learned Lord upon the Woolsack, that upon a:l occasions I shall certainly feel it my duty to cppotie the proposes! clause of nullity." The Archbishop of CA NTERBURY now pieserited r 13111 1 , pursuant to the Report, which was immediately rend arfirst time, and ordered to be printed. The Most Reverend Prima:v gave notice, that he should move the second reading of the lb upon an early dal after the Whitaun Holidays. MARRIAGES ABROAD. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY said, that he had to present to their Lordships . a Petition frosts Samuel Thornton, Esq. the Governor of the Russian Company, who siated.Skaraithotgh his marriage had been solemnised by the British Chaplain to the 'Russian Ertsbassy, doubts had arisen as to ire validity. He; therefore, now prayed their Lordships to. enact such . Measures as should establish the said marriage. Lord STOWELL was of opinion that the t Mariiige in quell. doh was valid by law. Wherever the subjects of thii eoirnier might happen to be located, such marriages ass mere toletnni3ed between them and others, or between the m 'and natives, if so . - littutized in obedience to the established forrnsof ForeignStateal, were admitted and , recognised.
