Constituted by Act of Parliament. PRESIDENT. The Right Hon. the EARL of ROSEBERY, K.T. VICE PRESIDENTS. WILLIAM GIBSON CRAIG, Esq., M.P. The Honourable LORD COCKBURN. The Honourable LORD MONCRIEFP. Ills Grace the DUKE of BUCCLEUCH, All of whom, as well as the Directors, ordinary and extraordinary, are personally connected with the society by insurances 01 more than three years' standing. In comparing the relative advantages afforded by the different in surance companies, and in contrasting the various modes in which the profits are allocated amongst the insured, it coght to be particularly kept in view that many offices professing to make large additions make no provision for the payment of bonuses during the interval be tween one period of investigation and another, commonly called Contingent Prospective Bonuses. No mode cf allocation of the pro fits of an a , surai ice company can be equitable which does not pro ceed upon the principle of making provision for such bonus addi tions. Thus, when a higher premium is charged than is admittedly an equivalent for the risk undertaken, and when the accumulations arising from the surplus premiums are divided in who'e or in part among the contributors, it is clearly contrary to the principle of justice—that if A and B, being of the same age, effect insurances at the same time and to the same extent, and if A live for several years longer than B, and pay more annual pre miums, his representatives should receive no larger share of the profits or surplus premiums than the representatives of B. the same time manifestly inconsistent with st r i c t equity, it is at that the Interests of the families or representatives of those whose lives are insured should I N materially affected (it may be to the extent,, in some cases, of hundreds of P°unds) , according to whether they happen to die the day before or the day after that 012 Which an in vestigation is made into the company's affairs.

Reader, remember, this letter was put late the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of Ne. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this epper tutity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Brimstone, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair en her head, after using itabout four mouths, and the whole ef her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than fever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Wcekley inserts this testimony te7the virtues of Mr. o.'s Elegenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase WI is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund %lice, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume iti far befond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure ia answering any 'a of respectability to the above fact•.-3, Swan - stree t, Borough." In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w lr9ps en the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and preivent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops en year hairbrush before brushing ,the hair, will eye the bah* brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product o f the mebt aromatic herbs aid flowers with confidence; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases et nevous headache, pour tea or twelve drops on the erovrrksf the head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hoar. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair en children's heads in a few appplicatiens. If used on infants' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence en the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See oansphlet of testimonials. kll letters adeiressed to William Grimstone.

The Parent, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease, which, for want of careful investigation of its real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find, that in niae-tenths of the cases of young per sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con sumption, heart disease, tahes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. X.B. Hours of consultation from Eleven till Two, sad Six to Eight in the Evening. L 0 V E is the leading feeling of the human breast. More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its Influence, er can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this garden' tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison, in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be beyond measure deplorable ! Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change , the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will, find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled SELF-P.RESER.VATION , . . illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs; with practical observa ions en the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from Solitary habits, excesses, or infection.

This treatise is the result of a long course of stud y in a peculiar and much neglected branch of med ical p ractice, and the author having ob tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat ment of these diseases. REVIEW or THE WORE. La'Mert on the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are scenes in the drama of life which are acted with ne spectator but Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him In the book before us such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, spon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemlowness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By an taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine.

BANQUET TO LIEUT.-GENERAL SIR CHARLES JAMES NAPIER. K.C.B. DUBLIN, FRIDAY.—Last evening Lieutenant-General Sir Charles James Napier, the hole of Sinde, was enter tained at dinner in the round room of the Rotunda, by a large number of the most respectable citizens of Dublin, the members of the bar, the mercantile body, the army, navy, &c. The magnificent round room was brilliantly lighted, and the scene was one altogether most attractive and exciting. At the upper end of the apartment were placed, on a raised dais, the table occupied by the chairman and principal guests, ant extending longitudinally through the room were five others, at which .the company sat, comprising several military and naval, officers of high rank, and the elite of the gentry, professional and mer cantile classes of the Irish metropolis,,,who, by their presence on the occasion, testified their high. apprecia tion of the eminent services of their illustrious country man during his important and distinguished career as a military commander in ever quarter of the globe. The spacious room selected for the banquet was lit by a magnificent chandelier which depended from the ceil ing, containing 150 gas-jots, and a profusion of wax lights, in rich candelabra, shedding a chaste and softened brilliancy over the apartment. A spacious orchestra was erected at the end of the room, opposite the principal table, . which wail occupied by the band of the 6th Inniskillen Dragoons, who per formed several fine pieces of music during the evening. The infant harpists, known as the Lockwood Family, also performed several exquisite airs on three Irish harps, arranged upon a platform in front of the orchestra. Im mediately behind it was a splendid painting, surrounded by British flags, in the centre of which was a column on which were inscribed, in gold letters, upon a purple ground, the names of the numerous scenes of service in which Sir Charles won his immortal honours in the fol lowing order :—" Corunna, Goa, Busaco, Fuentes D'Onor, Badajoz, North America, Cambria, Emumchur, Meeanee, Hyderabad, Truckee;" the whole surmounted by a bust of General Napier, crowned with a laurel wreath. On the table opposite the chairman's seat were several exquisite ornaments, in raised sugar work, the principal of which was a triumphal arch, sustaining the imperial crown, and from which depended beautiful satin bannerets, bearing the names of the several actions in which Sir Charles Napier achieved his triumphant suc cess. Others displayed national insignia, with appro priate mottoes, and the whole were arranged with excel lent taste, and produced a most pleasing effect. At half-past seven o'clock, the company entered the room, and took their places, and in a few minutes after the chairman, guests, and committee entered, the band playing the National Anthem. The chair was taken by his Grace the Duke of Lein. ster. At his right sat—. H. R. IL Prince George of Cambridge, the Earl of Devon, Hon. Charles S. Monck, James H.

A large number of ladies, friends and relatives of the distinguished guests and members of the committee, graced the assemblage by their presence, and imparted no small attraction to the scene, which was one of dazzling splendour. Grace having been said, when dinner was over, and Non Nubia. Domine sung, The Noble PRESIDENT rose to propose the toasts of the evening. The first toast which it would be his duty and his pleasure to announce was one that required no comment. He begged to give them— " Her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria." The toast was drunk with all the customary honours. Solo with chorus—" God save the Queen." The following toasts then followed in succession:— " The Queen Dowager." Band—" Hail Star of Bruns- wick." _- "Prince Albert and the rest of the Royal Family, coupled with the name of his Royal Highness Prince Gelrge of Cambridge, who had been so kind as to honour them with his presence on that evening."— (Loud cheers.) Quartette—" Lutzow's wild chase." His Royal Highness Prince GEORGE Of CAMBRIDGE rose to return thanks. He said—ln a company con taining so many distinguished officers and friends, though I feel that I ought not to detain you long with any observation of mine, I still feel that I should not allow this opportunity to pass without expressing my sincere thanks for the honour you have dune me by coupling my name with the toast which has just been given. I might al,o observe, that ever since I have come to this city I have received such unremitting kind ness that I am glad to have the present opportunity of expressing my gratitude and my thanks to those who have exercised their hospitality towards me—such un remitting kindness and attention from Irishmen, that I am glad to have this opportunity of returning my thanks to those who have so largely contributed to the pleasure attendant upon my sojourn in this country.—(Cheer;.) I am especially glad to be permitted to make these re marks in the presence of our illustrious guest, and so many other distinguished officers of her Majesty's ser vice. In connexion with the name of Sir Charles Napier and the British army, permit me to observe that it is no ordinary pride which I feel when I reflect that I belong myself to the noble profession of which he (Sir Charles Napier) is a member.—(Cheers.) That is a feeling which is felt not only by myself, but, I will venture to sa y, is likewise experienced by every member of the British army.—(Cheers.) This company will, therefore, I trust, permit me to express to Sir Charles Napier the pleasure I feel at being privileged to do him that honour which I am sure both myself and every one else must be desirous to show him on an occasion like the present.—(Loud applause.) " The Lord. Lieutenant and Prosperity to Ire'and " Band—" There's n ae l uc k a b out the house." . • " The Lords Justices." Lieutenant-General Sir EDWARD BLAKENEY re sponded to the toast. The PRESIDENT then rose to propose the health of Sir Charles Napier, the guest of the evening. He said — My Lords and lientletnen, before I pro Pose the next toast I would make one or two remarks with respect to myself. I regret extremely that you have not a more' able chairman, and one better adapted to do justice t) the toast I am about to propose"; but when it was proposed to me to take the chair on the occa sion of a public dinner to my gallant relative, I could not refuse the request made to me ; therefore, I trust that you . will excuse me if I do not bring before you all the merits of our illustrious guest, as under other circumstances I might have been tempted to do. —(Hear.) The toast I have now to propose is the health of the gallant soldier who sits at my left hand, Sir Charles Napier.----(Great applause.) Not being my self a military nine, it will not be expected that I should treat you to a detail of his many brave achievements. But his late victories in India were all well known to those who have perused the public prints ; and so successful were all his battle s in that portion of her Majesty's do minions, that it would be quite unnecessary to allude particularly to any of them. But there is one fact I wish to mention in connexion with the name of my gallant relative, namely, that he had always laid aside the sol dier when he had conquered, and endeavoured to do whatever good he could for his country.—(Hear.)

Gentlemen, Flay snore force on this than I do on an) - thing —namely, that it was an set of justice. He snatched Sinde from the Ameers, and4iovVas one of those actions which must be always attended with success.—(Hear, hiesr.) Twice has success attended that act of LOrd , Ellenborough. The first-time was when Lord Hardinge - and Lord Gough warred on the banks of the Sutlej.— i (Hear, hear.) An army advanced from Sinde to their 1 assistance, uud held in check the powerful chief of Moul tan; and that chief sent to the commander of the forces ' - a deputation, proposing to submit himself to the orders - — 4". 'of Lord Hardingee The second time .in which .Lord - Ellenborough's wise policy e succ ee d e d, i s i n reference to hose events which at • present continue to occur, laud of which we have. as yet, but little linowlfdge. Agr.in gentlemen, Sinde march es ten thousand men to the as: sistaice of General Whish, before the town of Aoul t% and if aught of disaste r — w hi c h , God forbid—Should a ; happen to General Whish, Sinde still open its ems to receive him—to succour his wounded, and receive him self and his army, if needs be.—(Cheers.) T.hese are the advantages that haive resulted from the conquest of Sinde; and now, my Lords and Gentlereen, let us re verse this picture. I have pointed out, the advantages of Lord Ellenborough's policy, but let us reverse it. Had that nobleman been guided by weak and foolish men, who wanted to place the traitorous Ameers of Sinde— men who had broken faith over and over again with the British—upon a throne, the sovereign of which they had murdered—(Hear, hear)—had he left these men ou the throne, at this moment they would have marched at the head of 100,000 Belooch warriors, equipped with spear, sword, and matchlock, and fallen on General Whish's de voted army and destroyed it.—(Hear, hear.) That i s the reverse of the picture, gentlemen. Now, as I have mentioned General Whish's army, and the check which he received before Moultan, I wish particularly to say here that I think it would be highly ungenerous, end what is still more odious, very unjust, to General Whish, to pronounce any opinion on his operations and conduct before Moultan. There are not many people who have a knowledge of that country, and how to make war in it, ' more than I have—(hear, hear.) It has fallen to my lot to make war in that country. I know it well; and I know that General Whish had to deal with numerous difficulties, which et this distance of time prevent us ' judging of his conduct without first obtaining more spe cific information than we have yet received.—(Hear,) We must wait, in justice to General Whish, until his own dispatches arrive, and give us a correct eeccunt of his operations. But, my Lords and Gentlemen, there is one point which I think is matter for congratulation to us all.—(Hear, hear.) A mist has been cast over the bril liant arms of England for, a moment, but through that mist we see the fiery valour of our soldiers, both S,-pay s and Europeans, shining ivi!h unabated lustre(Cheers) —resolved to hold themselves in readiness and to fall upon the—what shall I call him—the valiant assassin of the Moultan.—(Lond - cheers.) Efforts may check, but nothing in the world can resist the glory and prowesi of the British army.—(Renewed applause.) And now, my Lords and Gentlemen, let me once more thank 'you for the honour you have done me. You have made me ex perience what were the feelings of the Roman Consuls of old in their triumphs and their ovations; and all I can say is, that I wish, like them; I had my companion in arms id safety around me in Dublin, or that I was at their head once more, sharing their danger at Moultan.

The following ode, commemorative of the achieve meets of the illustrious hero of Sinde, and composed expressly for the occasion, was then sungwith remarkably good taste by Messrs. Smith, Geary, and Yosldey, the music being the composition of Professor Smith:— " Loud brays the shrill trumpet in Beloochistan, And the Ameers have mustered their hosts to a man; See their proud-crested pennons flout widely the sun, As the flood-tide of- battle rolls menacing on. Like the stream of the Indus the torrent proceeds, As majestic, as dark, but more deadly its deeds; Long years, mystic river, thou'st rushed to the sea, Bearing with thee the victims their blades have set free. "Lo! he comes—with a handful of Britons behin.7. And he leads them like flame in the teeth of the wind; For there the proud Ameers their myriads lead on, And range them for conflict 'gainst 'Liberty's Son ; Nor, tho' wanting.the valour that virtue would give, Lack they daring—as reckless to die as to live; But on rush the Britons, their brave Napier leads, And confidence nerves them for valorous deeds. "All—all have done nobly, but foremost be prest— In the front of the battle see Napier's proud crest! Long strove they, and boldly each Belooche bled— Hark! 'Charge, 22d! '—who'll number the dead? As the mist OR the mountain, 'neath llithra's proud ray, So 'neath Napier's keen falcbions their boasts melt away. Thus, planting his conquering standard, like Clive— Unlike, he bade Sindians be freemen and live." Sir CHARLES NAPIER—I rise to propose the health of a nobleman who is so well known to all here that very few words will be sufficient in prefacing his health. Ile is a nobleman who executes his duty with calmness, !with fearlessness, with incessant activity and zeal towards his country. He is a nobleman who has the fine patriotic feeling that always seeks to cast oil upon the troubled waters; he seeks not to agitate nor irritate the sufferings of his country; he is devoted to that country,. and pose sesses a cool head, which is directed by the impulses of a noble and generous heart—that heart is Ireland's own. —(Cheers.) I will now give you the health, not of en absentee, but of a nobleman who never leaves Ireland except to serve her in the sister kingdom—his Grace the Duke of Leiuster.—(Cheers.) The Duke of LEINSTER said, in returning thanks, he could assure the assembly he felt very deeply the kind manner in which his relative had introduced his health, and the very kind way in which they had received it. He felt he did not merit all that he bad said, but it was his most anxious wish to do all the gth_d he could. If h e failed in doing that, it arose from the weakness of m an , and not from any wart o' desire or activity upon his part to do all he could to usbist his Leave country. Shortly afterwards The Noble CHAIRMAN rose,' and said that he had great pleasure in proposing l ibi t un h tg e : n on e x a t t i hl tit)eapresence i „Eomdf merits.

He begged to proposo his - - health and that of the army under his command, with--; .. three times three.—(Cheers.) Sir EDWARD BLARENEY said he thanked . the fee" the high honour which had been conferred upon him` that night. He was obliged for the good feeling eiiiinbect towards himself, and he hoped all the company would accept his warmest thanks for the honour which • had :been paid him. He could assure them that the army 1 in Ireland, from the manner in which it had conducted . • itself, required little assistance from him, for..it was every day doing its duty faithfully and fully, and•be *as` convinced that.it would continue to do its duty in eeilaat-- - , ever country it was called upon to do so., ''Having said thus much — in reference to himself; he couldenotialhew ' the opportunity to pass without addressingelsimeelf td the chief topic of that evening—the gallant e guest )eiliose . achievements they had met to celebrate.e.—(Cheere.) From what he had said that evening, and ,firontithe rdaj l ner in which it was said, he could imag - inThtti4m,ltading his troops to the conflict, and could tea 'his tcagle"eye penetrating the ranks of the enemy, and diseerning how victory could be best obtained. He couldpimagine tic thing less than victory following his footsteps; but hav ing defeated the foe; and dispersed the bat , of eeobbers that were scouring the country, he found:him. conduct ing those affairs in which his civic authogq was brought into action with that mildness, wisdom, eganagement, and attention to finance that almost enableil 3 hico to make the country pay the expense of the war. -,(Loud cheers.) He injured no one; on the contrary, he attached every one to the country for which he flight, and made him self the popular idol of even tho,se.,whoua he had van quished.— (C h t. ere.) The Duke ()I LEINSTER then gap that, although the other branch of the service—thje r .nary—had not been of late years so much engaged ap tee army had been, they should not neglect to do it that honour to which it was entitled, and to drink iiti'llealth with the enthusiasm that became those wbo appreciated its high merits. v He, therefore, begged give to repose i' 1. 0 119 e Na y ;" thanks, till t o h a tt s t t' ' and to cult u p po A n Nl C E a L pt a it a in i p , Captain if there could be one thing more gratifying than another, a in nie r i e t t o ur r i e du P g ri it was that the toast had been given in the presence of that most" distinguished member of the sister service whom they had all met that night to honour, and wl.o w....s so well worthy of the compliment paid him.
