This Institution was originally established under a different title in the year 1839, on the plan of admitting the assured to participate in four-fifths only of the profits ; but the Society has since been re modelled so as to become a strictly " Mutual Association." The whole of the funds and property belong to, and are accumu lated for the exclusive benefit of the assured. The profits are divided annuall% among the policy-holders, and applied in reduction of the current year's premium ; thus constitut. ing, in effect, an immediate cash payment to the assured. Half-credit policies are granted on terms unusually favourable to the holders, the amount for which credit is given being gradually li quidated out of the profits. Two Tables of Rates have been computed ; one entitling the as sured to participate in the profits after payment of five annual pre miums ; the other considerably lower, in which the period of party cipation is deferred two years longer : the premium ultimately pay; able by the assured is, however, precisely the same, whichever Table of Rates may in the first instance be selected. General meetings of the members are held annually, to whom full and complete statements of the affairs and funds of the Society are submitted, and by whom the division of the profits are from time to time declared. At the Annual General Meeting held on the 27th April last, a di vidend of 30 per cent. upon the current year's premium was awarded to all members who had made the requisite numuer of payments on their respective policies.

London, May 1, 1852. *.* The "Britannia Mutual Life Association" is altogether dis tinct from, and independent of, the Proprietary Office transacting business under the name of the " Britannia Life Assurance Com pany." The only coenexion between the two establishments is, that their affairs are conducted on the s ime premises and by the same officers, by which means the entire disbursements of the Mutual Association are reduced to a small per ceutage en the receipts.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD, of the University of Heidelberg. —" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi cal contributions to German medical literature. This Is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to Correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851. —" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Sperma torrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately described, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady "—Medical Circular, May IS, 1852. —" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preliminary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Plckford ; but the moderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places It within the reach of every one interested in the matter."-Dublin Medical Press, April 28, 1852.

No. CCXXXV. THE MANCHESTER MEETING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Threo days of next week, Wednesday, Thurs day, and Friday, are devoted to the crack sport that the Manchester boys hive got up. The bill of fare, on paper, is a most extensive looking one; and if the racing is at all commensurate; it will be as good a provincial meeting as we have yet had this year. The ball opens as usual with the. Biennial Stakei of 10 soya. each, with 50 added, for three yrs old; colts, Bst 7lb ; filliei, Bst 31b. One mile and a half. This race I book to TROUSSEAU or MERRY BIRD. What the field will consist of, at the present moment I do not know. The second race on the list is that for the Produce Stakes of 10 soya. each, h ft. with 100 added, one mile and a half. This stake has fifty-eight subscribers to it; but if the odd eight nominations come to the post,- that will be as many as can be expected. The result will probably terminate in favour of WOMERSL EY or PEP. PERKINT —the former for choice. The field for this, as well as the"other stakes, I shall postpone giving till next week. The Union Cup of 200 soya. in specie, given by the members of the Manchester Union Club, added to a Handicap Sweepstakes of 5 soya. each, over the mile and a quarter course, stands forth in a flou rishing way, with seventy nominations, of which some sixteen will go to the post. It will be to little account to wade through the - respective chances of the animals engaged in this .stake, and I therefore shall draw to a conclusion at once' by stating that Ox ford Blue, who won it last year, has no chance of repeat ing ,the performance this time; and that those most likely to show to advantage will be, Iris, 4 yra, 7st 121 b; Trickstress, 4 yrs, 7st 41b; The Italian, 5 yrs, 7st 21b; Aaron Smith, 4 yrs, 6st Sib; First Fruits, 4 yrs, 6st 4lb ; Deceitful, 4 yrs, 6st; and Flounce, 3 yrs, 4st 71bv If they can manage to get THE ITALIAN along kindly there is nothing to prevent his winning, bat if he plays his itsual pranks, I feel inclined to look to DECEITFULor FLOUNCE for the winner. The Meiklam Handicap of 5 soya. each, with 50 added, over the mile course, will, in all probability, be won by OSBALDESTON or PENANO, without the Ithuriel filly bowls them over, which is somewhat dubious. On Thursday the racing commences with a Handicap of 5 soya. each, with 50 added; one mile and a distance. PROCTOR and THE CUTLER look the most like business —one or other being tolerably sure of carrying off the laurels. The Two Years-Old Stakes of 10 soya. each, with 50 added, will probably fall to the lot of Mr. J. O s bo rne , without Nestor or the Queeit colt can go faster than s e., over two f 2O soya. mes Lambton. Whalebone is of but little account. The Manchester Tradesmen's Cup of 200 soya. in e sp ac e h ci , e, ls a f d t d , e a d nd to s a on H ly a i n f di a Sweepstakes declared, and a distance, will probab l y be contested b y a field of ten or eleven, the' winner , I ha v e but little doubt, turn ing out to be the BLACK DOCTOR , HERBERT, or GOLD FINDER, Calculator and Hippolytus reading the next best on paper. On Friday the only Stakes that have yet closed are the Salford Borough Cup and the Wilto n S takes ; the latter of 10 soya. each, h ft, with 50 added; for two y rs old, Est 91b, and three yrs, Bst 121 b, over the T.Y.C. It will probably fall to the lot of Osborne, •with his LADY AGNES, LAMBTON, or EXACT; the sister to Mountain Deer being a doubtful runner, and Broughton a certain non-starter.

Yesterday was in every sense of the word an " off day;" the races possessed very little interest, the fields were small, the, company was thin, and the weather dull and misty. The Oaks betting, usually brisk on the day before running, was flat, the only animals backed with any spirit bring Trousseau and Bird on-the-Wing; the fa vourite was on the decline. With reference to the Derby, we collect that an easy settling is very generally anticipated; Mr. Davis, the heaviest loser, is reported to have been hit to the extent of at least 30,0001. Had either Barbarian or Chief Baron Nicholson won he would have " landed" an immense stake. The subjoined return of yesterday's sport will show that there was little to attract the multitude:— The Durdans Stakes of 10 soya. each, and 5 only if de clared, &c., with 50 added; three years old, 7st 11lb; four, Bst 71b; five, Bst 13lb; six and aged. 9st; win ners extra; mares and geldings allowed 31b; maiden four years old and upwards, and horses that ran on the D.,rby day allowed 51b.

[PRICE SD. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. I THE NEW CANDIDATE FOR TEWKESBURY. From the Somerset County Chronicle we quote the fol lowing interesting biography of Mr. Edward W. Cox, the new candidate for Tewkesbury:— " Mr. Edward William Cox was the son of' the late Mr. William Charles Cox, whose extensive iron and brass foundry gsvo employment to more than two hun dred of the inhabitant, of this town. The family are very ancient and respectable residents of Tatiaton; and through all its generations the late Mr. W. C. Cox was not the least distinguished of them for that blameless honesty and single-minded liberality in business which has ever been the trust and safeguard of British com merce. " The subject of the present memoir was born in the year 1609, and received the foundations of a classical education at the College School of this town, of which the Rev. T. Forster was at that time the head master. The intelligence and aptitude for learning exhibited by the youth at once attracted the attention of the master, and inspired him with an interest in the progress of his pupil which proved of great advantage to the latter; for when Mr. Forster resigned his office at the College School and returned to New College, Oxford, he carried his favourite pupil with him; and it was there, in the ancient seat of learning, with its impressive associations, and under the guidance of Mr. Forster, that the educa tion of Mr. Cox was completed. His family originally destined him for the Church, but, wisely leaving him a discretion in tbo matter, he fixed his own choice upon that profession for which his mental culture and active disposition so peculiarly fitted bisu—the Law. Accord ingly, when he:had completed his studies at Oxford, he returned to Taunton, and was articled to his uncle, Mr. Trenchard, then one of the most respectable solicitors in the town. " At the age of 17 Mr. Cox edited the West of Eng land Magazine, which was printed and published at Taunton, and which he conducted for about two years, aided by his cousin, afterwards the Rev. W. Trenchard, by whose early death the Church was deprived of one of its most promising ornaments. A sacred poem, en titled The Opening of the Sixth Seal,' which was much praised by the literary organs of the day and passed into two editions; many occasional contributions to the various' Annuals,' at that time so much in fashion; and a semi-satirical poem, entitled ' 1829,' may be noticed among the early productitions of his muse; and the meed of public praise awarded to all of them might easily have tempted a less resolute mind into de serting the solid but more prosaic advantages of pro fessional life for the specious but delusive paths of literature. " More congenial, however, to his active disposition seemed the pursuit of politics; and at this early age he obtained employment as the Taunton correspondent of the Sherbor n e Journal, in which capacity he acquired the rudiments of that intimate acquaintance with the mysteries of journalism which has proved so invaluable to him in after life. At this time he also wrote a his torical romance, entitled Thira, or the Cairn Braicb,' which was afterwards published in the columns of this journal, where it excited a great deal of interest. We are not aware if it has appeared in any more formal shape. " - In the year 1830, when he was twenty-one years of age, he went up to the metropolis for the purpose of completing his legal education, and, having been ad mitted an attorney, during the same year, he returned to Taunton,• where he bad resolved to practise, and busily occupied himself in the formation of a profes sional practice at once lucrative and highly respectable. "At this period, the Reform party bad no public organ in West Somerset, and Mr. Cox considered that, in founding a newspaper to support them, be would not only be advancing his own interest, but also effecting a great amount of public good. Encouraged by the leaders of that party he established the Somerset County Gazette. Maintaining on the one hand the principles of the Whig party, and on the other strenuously opposing everything that came in the guise of an irrational inno vation—a Liberal, without being a Democrat—Mr. Cox successfully conducted this newspaper, without any as sistance, until the period of his leaving the country fur the metropolis, when he transferred it to Mr. Woodley, the present proprietor. "In conjunction with other gentlemen of literary tastes in this town, he established a sort of club for the discussion of general questions and the reading of ori ginal papers, which were afterwards published under the title of The Conversazione,' and were read with great interest. To this periodical Mr. Cox contributed very copiously; and it was in its pages that his 'Recollections of the Life of a Lawyer,' an interesting series of tales founded upon events in real life, originally appeared. ," In the year 1835 he married Sophia, daughter of the late Wm. Harris, Esq., surgeon, of the Royal Artillery. She died, however, in 1838, leaving one child, a son, who is still living. " During the whole of this period he was conducting a large and steadily-increasing practice in his profession, but after the death of his wife he resolved to abandon the lower branch of the law for the more aspiring, if loss lucrative, practice of the Bar. Accordingly, in the early part of the year 1838, having completed all neces sary arrangements, disposed of his practice and of his interest in the Somerset County Gazette, he entered his name as a student at the Middle Temple and finally de parted from his native town. From this time be bade adieu to politics. Entirely engrossed by the earnest and laborious study of his profession, he dedicated his thoughts and his studies to the law alone. His long ap prenticeship to the business of journalism, added to his legal knowledge acquired in his acquaintance with both branches of the profession, especially qualified him to undertake such an enterprise, and accordingly on the 2d of March, 1843, the first number of the Law Times appeared, and met with that unqualified success which has ever since attended it. It is and from the th e time of recognised a organ of the legal profession; commencement to the present day Mr. Cox has been the sole editor and proprietor, aided by a large body of learned contributors. To commence and conduct so large an enterprise necessarily required both a great outlay of capital and a very expensive establishment; but we are enabled to state that Mr. Cox undertook the whole of this without having received the slightest as sistance, either pecuniary or otherwise, from any other person. Finding that the machinery necessary for one would also suffice for two periodicals. Mr. Cox's active mind devised the plan of The Critic; and here, where the ground indeed appeared to be already so fully occu pied by the Atheneum and the Literary Gazette, the in variable success which has attended him in all his ven tures did not desert him, and he has distanced all his competitors. For several years The Critic was con ducted at a considerable loss, but Mr. Cox had confi dence that steady perseverance and the undoubted talent of its contributors could not fail sooner or later to at tract the notice of the public; and in this he was not deceived. The Critic is now a most valuable property, for it circulates upwards of 7,000 copies, and its adver tisements are far more numerous than those of any other literary journal. During the following year, he established The 211agistrate, a monthly journal, to idea medium for communicating to the magistrate of the country such of the current law as more particularly affects their duties. When the County Courts came into operation, the necessity for a good collection of reportsnce of the law to be administered in these courts at o occurred to Mr. Cox, and he commencedaccordiglyrianal, a monthlylws affectingp!d ex- The County Courts Chronicle, them. elusively devoted to them and the w c a oing a flourish- Both of these publications arontohey were conducted by ing existence. For some time 8 , without assistance; but compelled him to commit thomthey are now his M increasing Cox's occupations indefatigable e n e h r s g v i e e latter to Morgan Lloyd, by the former to the care of A. Bittlestono, Esq., and the ably edited. "In the year 1646, Mr. Cox commenced the series of criminal reports so well known as Cox's Criminal Law Cases, which he still continues. They aremeuclhastinnrinee: quest by the profession, and received as the auth or i ty in this branch of the law, Besides these periodical publiw works:— of Elections.' —( This has cations, Mr. Cox has published, within th years,l. , the following Law and Practice gone through six editions.) .4 2, The Duties of Constables.'

" Mr. diatelyCox was called to the bar in joined the Somerset 1843, and imme and Sessions the Western Circuit, upon both of which he attained an almost im mediate success. He soon became famous for the de fence of prisoners, for which part his mental quick ness, his comprehensive grasp of facts, and his oratorical powers, always ready for use, especially fitted him . " Before two years had elapsed, he removed to the Devon Sessions, induced by another of those op portunities which opened for him there the path to success. " Since his establishment in London, in the year 1835, he has married Rosalinda Alicia, only daughter of Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque, granddaughter of the famous author of the Treatise on Equity,' and niece of Albany Fonblanque, Esq., the no less celebrated editor of the Ea aminer. By this lady he has had four chil dren, of whom three daughters are now living. " Haring thus, by an industry and perseverance which are almost without a parallel, combined with uncommon prudence and business-like habits, created for himself, in the prime of life, a fortune, a name, and a position, Mr. Cox is now aspiring to the highest honour which our free country can confer upon its most deserving citizens, —a seat in the Parliament. fie is a candidate for the borough of Tewkesbury, in Gloucestershire, where, it is said, he has already secured the respect and esteem of all clssses and parties among the inhabitants by the mode ration of his opinions and his courteous bearing towards his oppon ents . "To sum up in a few words the doings w e hoe re- 9 -- corded: Mr. Cox is just 42 years of are, al has, by his own exertions, urAided by at purse, established himself in two large pru as an attorney, then as u barrister. He pi volumes end two magazines before he wi;s he was 30, he had added to these enterprises 'a \pop, newspaper. D ur i ng t h e last ten rears of h i s life heitaV--0, established four journals, all of which are now flourish ing, and two of which he personally conducts. He has written twelve volumes of law books; and his journals now number together no less than twenty-four volumes. During the same period, he has founded three extensive public companies, now flourishing; one of which was an invention of his own, and over which he presides, and yet withal every vacation has been occupied in foreign travel,--he having, during the same period, visited almost every country in Europe, and made acquaintance with the social and political institutions of their inha bitants. " His establishmt-nt is immense, even for London. Up. wards of 250 nersons are engaged upon its various de partments; upwards of tea thousand accou.its are kept there; and the magnitude of the transactions may be judged by the fact that toe postage-sti3ups alone exceed 4001. per antum, showing a correspon , lence of nearly one hundred thousand lett,rs in a year." 'THE FRENCH KEPONAC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Legislative Body met on Wednesday at two o'clock, M. BILLAU LT i n th e c h a i r. Th e P res ident read to the Chamber two decrees sent by thr Minis ter of State : the first, adding M. PETITET, 101* of State, to the other councillors previously d 4ig nated to support the discussion of the Bill for the definitive regulation of the budgets of 1848 and 1849; and the second, naming MM. HEtrRTIEE and F. BAR ROT, Councillors of State, to sustain with MM. GER-. MAIN and DE THORIGNT, previously designated, the discussion of the budget of 1853, in what concerns the department of the Interior, Agriculture, and Com merce. The President also read two Bills, trans mitted to the Legislative Body by the Minister of State, the first giving authority to interdict administratively certain individuals from re siding in the department of the Seine and in the circumscription of Lyoas ; and the second having for object to prolong the tobacco monopoly until January 1, 1863. Both these bills were sent to the bureaux for examination. M. LEQUIEN presented the report of the committee charged to examine the bill for the definite regulation of the budget of 1848 ; M. LACAVE presented the report of the committee charged to examine the bill proposing a credit of tr 3 we 6 po o o , rt o hte 360,000 f. for th e dr a i nage an d i mprovement • o f the Sologn e ; an d G eneral VAST-VIMEUX presented the of cantonthe r t t h ( e c bill har e fo n r t e dA n vi f d e i rnie ugite) n , to . t A r b l u t t h e e d. se reportsThediscussion were report printed co concerning n d i no i s the Sologne was fixed for Saturday, and that on the definitive settlement of the budget of 1848 for Tuesday. The sitting then terminated at three o'clock. The 111oniteur says :—" Some foreign journals, persisting in their systematic hostility to the Govern ment of the PRINCE PRESIDENT of the Republic, re proach him with exercising at this moment at Madrid an influence contrary to the maintenance of the con stitution. This imputation has not the least founda tion. The French Government is too jealous of its in dependence not to respect that of others, and it would fail in its principles by mixing itself up in the in terior affairs of Spain.”. We read in a Paris letter, in the Emancipation of Brussels :—" The journey of M.

At Dresden he had a conference with the King of SAXONY, whose daughter is to marry the Emperor of AUSTRIA.

The Duchess restricts herself to saying that the majority of the members of her family regard the fusion as a useful mea sure, but that she makes a reservation of the rights of her son, the Count DE PARIS. The Jewish Hospital in the Rue do Picpus, built by Baron JAMES DE ROTHSCHILD, was inaugurated yesterday with great ceremony. The Minister of Public Works and the Prefect of .the Seine were pre sent, as were also an immense number of ladies and gentlemen. M. A. CAHEN addressed the company in a very appropriate speech, in which be pointed out in the strongest colours the noble acts of charity which bed been performed by the ROTHSCHILD family. The BARON replied by expressing his hope that the building which they had met together to inaugurate would tend to assuage the sufferings and promote the comforts of his fellow•creatures, and call down the blessings of the ALMIGHTY on their efforts. The Minister of Public Works then addressed Baron DE ROTHSCHILD as follows : " Woe be to him who cannot find in his heart to praise and celebrate what we now see and hear. In contemplating the edifice which you have just raised for such a noble purpose, I am happy to find myself the organ of the Prince, to whom the welfare of the suffering people is so dear. lam pleased to testi,y here all the gratitude which is due to the cooperation which M. de Rothschild lends to the Government. I will inform the Prince of all I have seen, and I am sure that a more flattering testimony from the Chief of the State will confirm all that I have said before Baron James de Rothschild." The ceremony concluded by a collection made by the ladies patronesses, and by the installation of a marble bust of M. DE ROTHSCHILD in the vestibule of the building. The Countess DE BUFFON, niece of DAUBENTON, the anatomist, has died at her country seat of Mo bard, aged 77. She was married to the son of the celebrated naturalist.
