QCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND and LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY.—BONUS CERTIFICATES, The Banns Certificates have now been issued from the head office and agencies, but as it is probable that out of between 6,000 and 7,000 some few may have miscarried, it is requested that any member who has not received his certificate will communicate with the Manager on the subject. Capital at 31st December, 1845, arising from the accumulation of the premiums, 1,701,633/. Is. 6%d., or upwards of one million seven hundred thousand pounds. Annual revenue at 31st December. 1845, consisting of annual pre miums and return from invested capital, 248,929/., or nearly two hundred and fifty thousand pounds. The Directors are desirous that the members should keep in view : Ist. That during the last ten years the amount of insurances an nually effected has, on an average, exceeded half a million of money. 2d. That the expenses of management are kept as low as can be maintained consistently with the due and proper conduct of the So ciety's business, and that an allOwance la the way of commission is not made to all persons indiscriminately who are the means of bring ing insurances to this office. ad. That the greater the extent of the Society's business the less proportion will the expense of management bear to each individual member's interest. 4th. That the deaths which have occurred during the last fourteen years have been very little more than one-half of what might have been expected according to the Tables of Mortality upon which the Society's calculations are founded—having been during the seven years ending 31st December, 1838, in the ratio of 57 to 100, and during the seven years ending 31st December 1845, in the ratio of 5 to 100. sth. That in accumulating and investing the premiums for the benefit of the Society during the thirty-one years that it has been in existence, not a shilling has been lest, and that the capital thus rea lised and invested (independently of payments to the extent of up wards of 766,0001. to the representatives of deceased members) amounted, at 3 st December last, to the sum of 1,700,000/. 6th. That whilst looking to what is stated above, it is only reason able and natural to expect that a laige surplus fund or profit should be realised, the members, and they only, are entitled to derive any .benefit therefrom ; and that in this respect, therefore, this Society, and all others similarly constituted, differ from proprietary com panies, which appropriate a certain portion of the profit to their pro prietors, partly in the way of dividends, but still more in the way of large additions to the stock. In calling the attention of members to these points, the Directors feel confident that it w ill be sufficient to satisfy them that they have connected themselves with a safe and a flourishing institution; but the bonus certificates, which have now been sent to the members, afford the best practical evidence that can be given of the benefits already conferred upon them. It will be observed by the older mem bers—by those who joined the society between the years 1815 and 1819 inclusive—that at let January last there was for each 1,000/. of original insurance an addition of Com Bs. 7d., and that besides this, in the event of their death before the let January, 1853, when the next appropriation of profits falls to be made, there will be added so much more for each year they may live in the Interval; that, in the event of their death (after payment of the premium for the year), there will be paid under each 1,000/. Insurance In this year 1846 ...• .. • .. • • £1,845 12 4 In the year 1848. 1,917 19 10 1850 .... •••• • • • . 1,990 7 5 „ 1852 The members who joined the society in the year 1830 will, in like manner, derive proportionate benefits; there will he paid under each 1,000/. insured, in the event of death, after payment of the premium— In the year 1846 1848 ~ 1850 .............. 1,472 8 11 , 1852 .............. 1,525 19 10 In the case of those members who joined the society in the year 1.840, there will be paid under each 1,0001. insured, in the event of death, after payment of the premium—. In the year 1846 . ...... ....... £1,142 8 0 „ 1848 ....... . ~ 1850 . . ,• 1852 .............. 2,276 16 0 Thus it will be seen that whilst great benefits are conferred upon the members whose connexion with this society is of long standing, the interests of those whose connexion is of later date are not sacri ficed. The directors are most desirous that the members should examine into and make themselves acquainted with the principles of division adopted by their own society, and in order that they may have an opportunity of doing so, the manager has prepared and printed a short and simple explanatory statement on the subject, which may be had on application, and any further information or explanation that may be required will at once be afforded. In the meantime, let each member keep In view 1. That at whatever age he may join the society, as he cannot tell the day on which his death shall happen, he and his co-members, by payment of premiums corresponding to their respective chances of life, are all placed upon en equal footing ; and that as it i s ha . posible to calculate the exact premium which, when accumulated during the member's life (and accumulated at a fluctuating rate of interest), shall he precisely equal to the sum insured to be paid on his death ; and as, even on an average of many cases, although a nearer approximatiom may be had to the exact premium, it is still impossible to fix its precise amount—the society, in order to pre vent inevitable bankruptcy, must charge a higher rate of premium than can, under any circumstances, be supposed necessary to meet the risk. 2. That when an investigation into the affairs of an insurance so ciety takes place (viz., by comparing the accumulated fund with the value of the engagements undertaken), it is ascertained what the 4 . profit" amounts to, and considering that nearly the whole of this so-called "profit" arises from the surplus premium received beyond what the result of the investigation shows to have been necessary to meet the risks, the mode of distributing that profit, which it appears to the Directors bears the nearest approach to equity, is to give it back to the members in such proportions as each may have contd. billed towards its formation; and thus, whether the premiums shall upon the investigation he found to have been mere than the risk re • quired, in the ratio of 5, 10, or 20 per Cent., to add to each sum in sured in a corresponding ratio ; and in order to give effect to the sources of profit other than that arising from the surplus premiums above referred to, that these additions should be calculated upon the accumulated amount of the original insurances, and previously de clared additions. 3. That this is one of the leading principles adopted by this So ciety, and that in following it, no undue benefit Is conferred upon etteleotify after with t a lie si s io a r m t e pe p r r i o o s d pe o c f ts co o n f n t , n i e o fi n t ; one class of members to the prejudice of another; all join the oarnafter whether or a e m ie r gt be he r ße b d e Irornocioltheeellxnteetit°ltt twiehMllienweotlutili haveas nearly ea had a p d o b e 1 real n chancesopo r - of life been known when he joined the society. .. qu.

" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understani ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times. except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the avaihnent hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the 111: e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

At Chichester the demand for lodgings has been very brisk, and on Saturday scarcely a bed was disengaged. The course, thanks to the heavy rain on Friday, is in very good order. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The Corinthian meeting at Goodwood, under the immediate protection of the " protectionist" leaders, this year seems likely to surpass all its predecessors in quantity if not in quality of sport. There are no less than thirty-eight races on the paper for the four drys. On Tuesday, nine ; Wednesday, twelve ; Thursday, ten, and Friday, eight ; sport enough to satisfy any reasonable appetite ; and, from the number of lodgings taken at Bognor, Chichester, and elsewhere, with fine weather, we may reasonably expect to have one of the most brilliant meetirgs on record. The ball opens with the Craven btakes, to name the dirt before running, which is generally won by the Goodwood stable; and they seem inclined to repeat the dose this year, which they have so often been successful in before. The Levant Stakes, of 50 sovs. 30 ft, has 25 subs, ant\ the following may be expected to show ; viz. :—Black cock, or Jollity, Van Tromp, Galata filly, Joyful - filly, out of Cobweb, Conyngham, Halo, or Vampyre, and pfrhaps Hornet and Golightly ; of these I shall expect to s•e the Duke of Richmond's starter (most probably Halo), and the Derby crack (Van Tromp), pass the post first, and should not be at all surprised to see the former beat the latter. Th© Ham Stakes, of 100 sovs. each, h ft, has 40 auks, and about eleven will start, viz.: —Crozier, or Gabble. Epirote, Corona, Amima filly, or Mecca colt, Chain Bearer, Apricot, Tantivy, Little Nell, The Positive Young Man, The King of Naples, and Red Hart. The Goodwood Stable is in considerable force, both for this and the 14-vent Stakes, and I shall anticipate its success on this occasion, by naming Red Heart or Crozier for w inner. About ten may be expected to go for the Gratwicko Stakes, viz. :—Binnacle, Mowerina, Joinville, IDraco, Lady Cecilia, Eclat, filly out of Antler's dam ; Vanish, Cuckoo, and one of Mr. Wreford's,iprobably Wilderness. I select the latter and Joinville to pull me through, wl ich I have no doubt they will. The Drawing Room Stakes will have but a very small field. Paragone, St. Demetri, King Charles, Humdrum and Sting being the most likely starters. The two first go for a dead certainty ; the other three are on ' the doubtful list. Should Sting go, which I hardly think be will, he ought to win ; otherwise Paragone will be first, and St. Demetri second. The 300 sovs. Stakes for four year olds, look well for one of Day's lot—Weatherbit or Worthless—whichever you please ; the former for my money. The Goodwood Club Stakes will be decided by the merits of the jockeys, not of the nags, this stake being for members of the Goodwood Club. I fancy Naworth, Coal Black Rose, and Petit Mcrceau, with their riders, will manage it between them. The Welter Stakes. Red Deer or Old England will, or ought to win, but it is in this stake as in the last, gentle man jocks up, cons( quently it is not safe to speculate on these events until you know the mounts. The first day's sport concludes with the Innkeeper's Plate ; to• morrow, Monday. The bill of fare for Wednesday commences with the " crack race" of the meeting— the Goodwood Stakes, of 25 says. each, 15 ft., which has sixty acceptances, and twenty-five, or thereabouts, will be brought forth, to show their qualities—such as they are—for a moro wretched lot of trash, with a very few exceptions, cannot be found. As this is the case, so much greater is the diffi culty of selecting the winner, that I very much doubt whether k there b i s e i a n b leex to s e t e n n a c m e e now most probably obscure) nag. At their weighs, Est 71b..; a th ‘ e ‘ p m ro u p ch he -e t nv s i o ed au dh a o il ug a h t Marquis of Conyng ham, - Jenny Wren, sst. 1 _lb. ; Brother t o Si r tude, sst. 13 , 9 theb 6 e s s t t . - in S a t. re D — em G e ia til t , e fi s s s t , . Henry, sst. 121 b. ; and Petitioner, sst. Slb. Had the filly by Tomboy, out of Lapwing, not started for the Cup and St. Leger at Newton, she would have won the* Goodwood Stakes in a canter. Her blood and condition are undeniably first-rate, and, like her sire, she is game to the back bone. She may yet, at her favourable weight (sst 71b), do something prodigious in the forthcoming meeting. In the batch above named, lam inclined to think I have included the winner, and I consider the filly by Tomboy out of Lapwing, Plenitude, Jenny and St. Demetri, to be as good a s any. At any rate will take them " for better for worse,', as my choice for this fashionable betting race. By the bye, as this is considered such a fashionable race, I think they might as well enter something above the grade of plates for it. The following is as correct a list of the starters as can at present be obtained .—*Alamode, Newcourt, Satyr, Orion, *Colleen Bawn, *Marquis of Conyngham. Footstool, The Druid, Lapwing filly, Red Robin, Jonathan Wild, Maynooth, * Polish, The Conjuror, Con naught Ranger, Teetotaller, St. Demetri, Jenny Wren, *Jack Cade, The Hero, M ore ll a fill y, Si ster to Pergula ria, Glossy, *The Pacha, Mongrel, Giantess, Humdrum, Plenitude, Brother to Sir Henry, *Petitioner, Bold Archer, and Camera Obscura. Those marked with an asterisk are very doubtful. The Orange Prize given by the King of the Nether lands, added to a Sweepstakes of ten sovs. each, has forty-seven subscribers, and from eight to ten may be expected to show, including Wolfdog, Refraction, Jericho, Alarm, Burgundy, and perhaps Grimston. Should the latter make his Goodwood debut for this stake instead of the cup, I should not hesitate in de claring him the winner, but as he is not likely to go for this prize, Alarm and Jericho will do his work for hire. Of the two I consider Jericho the best, and should Alarm win, Mr. Greville may thank Nat, not his horse. Between the two the race will lay, and a close affair it will most assuredly be. The Steward's Cup, Queen's Plate, Stand Plate, County Member's Plate, Cowdray Stakes, and Selling Stakes, close and name on Monday evening. The match between Lord G. Bentinck's Growl and Mr. Herbert's So-Nice will be won easily by the former. On Thursday the Goodwood Cup, with a field of a dozen or thereabouts, will furnish about the best piece of racing in the meeting. For this stake Grimston and Mendicant will run, and to them I leave the race ; Bur gundy, if starting, being close up. The 200 Sovs. Stakes to one of Kent's lot. The 100 Sovs. Stakes to Binnacle or Wilderness. The 200 Sovs. Stakes to the Maid of Saragossa or Wild Doe. The Racing Stakes will have a very small field, For the Molecombe Stakes a goo d field, perhaps a dozen, will put in an appearance.
