Doncaster, November 27, 1848. Gentlemen, Having received an assurance, conveyed to me by a deputation from an influential body of electors residing in various parts of the West Riding, and entertaining somewhat different political opinions, that my off.ring myself as a candidate for the honour of again. be coming one of your representatives, would accord with the wishes of a decided majority of the electors, I have not felt myself at liberty to decline doing so, and I therefore now most respectfully solicit the ho nour of your votes and support at the approaching election. Although my votes and opinions are upon record, it is due to you that I should touch upon a few of those topics which are now of more immediate interest. With respect to Free Trade, I repeat what I said on the hustings in August, 1847, viz., that with the exception of the duties upon Corn, I had voted for every reduction of duty pro posed by the Minister of the day, and I am quite prepared to follow out that course as far as is consistent with the security of the public creditor. All duties upon Corn will expire in the course of next spring, and I think it would be most impolitic to attempt a revival of them. The Trade a•:d Finances of the country are in anything but a sa tisfactory condition, owing to the melancholy state of the Continent ; and although there is a dignified spirit of loyalty amongst all classes, a patient endurance under severe privations, and a buoyancy in the powers and energies of the country, which, I doubt not, under the blessing of Providence, will carry us on to more prosperous times, I think that it is the imperative duty of Parliament to insist upon the u*raost possible reduction of expense in every department of the State. There is another subject which at present deeply engages the at tention of the public : I allude to the endowment of the Roman Ca tholic Priesthood. Should I have the honour of being returned as yoar representative, and any such measure be brought forward in Parliament, I shall give it my decided opposition. I must repeat, what I took the liberty of stating in 1847, that I feel the deepest interest in all measures proposed for the improve ment of the social condition of the people ; and that in my opinion, the education of the poor ought to be vigorously promoted without regarding it in any way as a party question. Nothing can be of greater consequence to the personal welfare of the people, and the permanent well-being of the State, than that elevation of character which religious education promotes. It has, through the greater part of my life, been my pride to take an active part in the affairs of the Riding, and the variety and im portance of its interests would make me shrink from the responsi bility of again becoming your Representative, did I not feel that the indulgence which I have hitherto experienced at your hands will continue to be extended to me. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your ♦ery obedient servant, EDMUND DENISON. 3•(1 2 1 ere i 5 ' Fe! in h oots AINSWORTH'S MAGAZINE. CONTENTS FOR DECEMBER. No. LXXXIII. I. Crichton. By W.

INVITATION TO MR. ROEBUCK. Leeis was yesterday morning placarded by an an nouncement that a requisition was lying for signature at several places named to Mr. Roebuck, urging him to allow himself to be put in nomination. It is not thought the Hon. Gentleman will comply, as be has left the town for some days, and the gentleman who originally intro duced him to Leeds has thrown his influence into the scale in favour of Sir Curling Eardley. 1 mill go further, a n d' sa y th a t h e wou ld b e man who should try to revive them ; and ucl theiraapwuo s a ne , rt l eh pad a et do n o t n.O oi n 1 0 At not so rry nnhooetvvhla e whattpl t l oa a i k t nmet ni t s acethyhi thatee hethfreirasavcr economy ode mdd d ryg w e o rs n h aes e n a at t dth months, though I dui oppose the repeal of the cos. r l etr h en a c v h e ment in the p ublic p a in : b h l e i c r :i itm c n e t n er t es t t t , i i m t continu ed t e h s e , si-en during tie )3, d un v sl mischiev ous ü b e e i s o r eom e rrf m retd y.dreeDenison, Parliamentsaying t gffw n b eatu o i e .eton t: expenditure. insist upon the utmost possible reduction of expense is every department of the state. He had no interest in keeping up high salaries, or more clerks employed than was necessary, and therefore he would support any re ductions that a Commttee of the House of Commons, after due inquiry, should report to b, practicable. It was the duty of Parliament to take off the burdens from the shoulders of the working:classes as far as it coukl be done with safety to the state, either by a reduction of duties or diminution of salaries. Upon the question of the endowment of the Roman Catholic priesthood, he said in 1847, and he wcnld say now, that he should op pose any proposition with that view, come from what quarter it might. He could not conceive that any proposition could be made for that object that would be just toward all parts of the community—that would be just to the Church, and at the same time just to the people. They could not possibly endow the Romish priesthood with annual stipends, without either taking away the property of the Church as it now stands, or in creasing the taxation of the people, which was already large enough. With respect to the due education of the people, he was in favour of the continuance of the Parli amentary grants for that purpose. If they meant ever to be good subjects, they must make the boys religious; if religious, they must be moral, and they would not fail to be good. With the education which might under the new arrangements be afforded, there was ne reason why the son of any working man might not become an arch. bishop, a lord chancellor, or a judge. His (Mr. beni son's) grandfather was a very humble man; but he worked his way to a good position; his son did the same; and he hoped that he (Mr. Denison) did not occupy a despica ble position. The celebrated judge whose name he bore, Judge Denison, rose from the working class in Leeds; he walked to London because he had no money to take him there, and he became a judge. Mr. Denison thanked the audience for the patient hearing they had given him.—(Cries of "Go on.") He was told that they might refuse him a hearing, and yet now they told him to go on. He thanked them; he had nothing further to add; but would be happy to answer any questions that might be put. Mr. W. W. FENNELL then asked a series of questions , to which Mr. Dension gave answers. Mr. RUSSELL also inquired, with reference to the ease of Mr. Shore and the Bishop of Exeter, if Mr. Denison would abolish all ecclesiastical courts ? Mr. DENISON answered in the negative. Mr. Wm. BARKER (band-spinner) said that Mr. Deni son objected to granting the suffrage to the working classes because they ware not sufficiently intelligent and instructed; but he would put it to the meeting whether the working classes were not as much enlightened on political subjects as the middle and upper classes, al though they might not choose to pin their faith on any particular person's sleeve. After entering into some ar guments to prove the necessity of the ballot, even at mu nicipal elections, he begged to inquire whether the hon. candidate, if elected, would support a measure for the repeal of the law of entail and primogeniture? Mr. DENISON said he could very easily spend half an hour in giving them reasons why he could not consent to the proposition involved iu the question; but as time was pressing, and many of their dinners must be waiting (Cries of " We have none")—for them, he added, I at once say I cannot consent to, and I will not support such a proposition. a sofl• ri, fsl'' Ilan'p pot . , 0 Jul l „ f ° ' Ile" ',-house► t.P9 l)° ' , w osci id ~, ° bev oo% re Si. 3 ,rgded • $5, - 0.

CANVASSING VISIT OF MR. DENISON TO • LEEDS. Yesterday Mr. Edward Denison, of Doncaster, paid his personal respects to the electors of the West Riding resident in the Leeds polling district. The Hon. Gen tleman was met at the Royal Hotel by a party of gentle men, embracing many members of the old Whig section of politicians, by whom he was escorted, about ten o'clock, to the Coloured Cloth Hall. At eleven o'clock Mr. Denison mounted the steps in the area of the hall, and was briefly introduced by Mr. Gorr, one of the leading merchants in the town. He said—l have the pleasure to stand before you, to in troduce to you Mr. E. B. D en i son, who comes forward to solicit your votes as a candidate to fill the vacancy in the representation of the West Riding. We live in times, perhaps, without a parallel in the history of the empire of the world, when Governments are overthrown, institutions destroyed, land large masses of the people reduced to misery and ruin. At such a time as this how necessary is it that the British House of Commons should consist of men of sound judg ment and discretion, men in whose hands we can safely trust the vast interests, not only of this empire, but, we are proud to say, of the world itself. At such a time, then, I take it that those who would advocate what is called popular progress, do it at a great hazard.—(Hear, hear, and " Give us the suffrage.") Yes, I repeat it— at a great hazard.—(Hear, and hisses.) Were we to understand by these words, the advancement in moral excellence, or constitutional freedom, or more, the ex tension of the comforts of th e great mass o f the people, then, who would be more ready to support them than we are ? Who would rejoice in it more than we should ?—(Hear, hear.) But if it is to advocate an incessant change, a career of constant agitation, we can't do so. We must oppose it, and I feel that in doing so, we are supporting the constitution of our country and its best interests. What has this kind of excitement done for trade? Why, those who are com petent to form an opinion will tell you that it has damaged it most materially. We all know that as re gards trade it prospers under a state of stability and public confidence, and not in agitation and confusion. But are we to lay aside every other consideration? Are we to refuse a man, who,;in the words of the Honourable Gentleman who lately addressed ycu in this place, stands high in public opinion, who is a good man, who has the universal respect of the West Riding, who is thoroughly conversant with all its varied business, and who has shown himself fully able to discharge it, or are we to refuse him for some visionary theory ?—(Shouts of " No, no," and cheers.) Are we to risk the institutions of the country under 'A hich we have long lived and been happy? (" How can we be happy when such as you are living on our industry?") Gentlemen, I contend, as men attached to these institutions, we ought not to incur any risk whatever. Tken I would say that if we consult the respectability and character of the constituency— (Hisses and cheers)—if we wish to support the charac ter—if we wish to give this great constituency due weight, and if we consult the interests of the nation at large, we have now an opportunity of doing so. Now is the time, and Mr. Denison is the man.—(Cheers, and cries of " No, no.") I hope and believe that the great mass of the electors of the West Riding will support him and bring him nobly in as its representative. Mr. DENISON said—Gentlemen, in compliance with the request presented to me by an influential deputation of gentlemen residing in various parts of the riding that I would come forward to offer myself as a candidate for the honour of representing you in Parliament, not having felt myself nt liberty to refuse that request— (Llear)—l now once more appear before you for the purpose of soliciting your votes and support at the ap droaching election. And having now launched myself upon your favour, I make you this promise, that, as far as I am concerned, you shall have a fair opportunity of deciding between my hon. opponent and myself; for to the poll I will go—(Applause)—not from any feeling of vanity on my own part that I shall succeed, but in order that I may give you and others placed in similar circumstances an opportunity of making your selection between the two men. It I had studied my own ease and comfort I should have remained quietly at home; and I was perfectly content to have remained in retirement; and if I was not convinced that those who did me the honour to wait upon me stated truly when they said that there is a more than common anxiety among all classes—(Oh, oh)—yes, I repeat it, among all classes, that I should now become a candidate, I would have remained quietly at home, And what is the mean ttßetatrdits"among all politicians, and I tell you now that I calculate confidently upon having the support of men who upon former occasions have opposed me. And I will tell you why I calculate so—because they have done me the honour to say that while I represented them I did so faithfully—that I did so honestly, and that I did the work like a good servant.—(Cheers and " No.") Now, you are perfectly at liberty to say, " No, no," if you like; but I tell you that it has been said, and that I am more proud of that than of any other compliment that has been paid to me during the course of my life. I think that it is no small compliment to have it said, at the close of a six years' service, that the man who has represented the largest constituency in the kingdom has, at all events, performed his duty con scientiously and independently, that he has broken no pledges, and that he returns back to his retirement as good and as honest a man as he was when they sent him to Parliament. I know it is owing to that, and to that only, though I don't presume to claim it, that there has been tendered to me support from various quarters, from whence I had no right to expect kindness. It is from that consideration, and that only, that I have not thought myself at liberty to decline the request made to me. That is my excuse ; I hope it will be sufficient. Reject me if you think proper—elect me, if you like that better ; but if I go back into retirement, my„ conscience will be at rest that I have done my duty in former times, as well as in now coming forward to offer to represent you.—(Hear.) If ever there was a time or a period in the history of this country when a Member of Parliament should go inde pendently within the walls of the House of Commons, this is that time or that period. I shall go there, if I am elected, with no strong party feeling, but with an ardent desire to acquit myself independently. I have been asked if I will support her Majesty's present Government. My answer is, that I will not promise to support or oppose the men, but I will support or oppose their measures according to their value in my estimation. I have no personal ambition to attain in going to Parliament, and I have no personal objection to the men who hold the reins of government, and as long as they conduct their affairs constitutionally they shall have my support. I know no men whom I could wish to replace them. They do not form so strong a Government as I should wish, but as I have no wish to supplant them by a Tory Government, I would say, let us have a etrong Government; let us have a strong Whig Government, if you like; nay, if the voice of the people wills it, let us have a strong Radical Government; but above all things I say, let the Govern ment be strong, and let she country know what their measures are, and have an opportunity of pronouncing its verdict upon them. But I say that I have no objec tion to her Majesty's present advisers, and their mea sures shall have my careful consideration. Thus far as to the conduct which I shall pursue, if I have the honour of again representing Yorkshire. And now, then, as to that principle of conducting our foreign trade which is more especially called free trade. I could—if I thought it right to detain you—l could ask some gentlemen whom I see around and before me, if they thoroughly understand, and, it they do, if they will attempt to ex plain, what they mean by a thorough free trade.—(" Tell us what you mean.") I will tell you what I mean; and I will tell my friend below, whose ,face I know, but whose name I forget, that he may put any question to me that he pleases. I am not come hero to skulk.— (Cheers.) If I do not like his proposition I will tell him so plainly, and he may make what he likes of my a nswers. Now if you mean by the term free trade , the taking off the duties on all the articles of general consumption to such an extent as will enable the Chan cellor of the Exchequer of the day to pay the debts of the country, and to pay the interest on the funded debt, then I will go with the Chancellor of the Exchequer as far as he likes to go in that direction; for I can see no reason why any man living can object to any duties being extinguished if there bo enough to provide for the wants of the exchequer without them. But I know Leeds men perfectly well. I know that if they are Yorkshire.. men they are perfectly honest ; and I won't insult you, Yorkshiremen, by supposing for an instant that you wish to get all the duties off, and leave the public creditor to take his chance.—(No, no, and hear.) I know that I am addressing men who have money in the funds, or money in savings' banks; and you know as well as I do—if you sweep off all the duties now payable on arti cles brought from abroad —where you will be at the end of the year, when, instead of receiving your divi dends as usual, the Chancellor of the Exchequer will be constrained to say—" Gentlemen, I am insolvent, and I cannot pay you." I believe there are men who, though they dare not avow it, are anxious that free trade may be applied to all those branches with which they have no connexion in the State, and who would be glad to see all the parties connected with them left in the lurch. I have lived long enough to find out that; and, therefore,: I will only be a free-trader so far as free trade can be carried out with due regard to the claims of the public creditor. I will take my stand upon that, if you send me to represent you; and I know that when the day of revolution comes, if come it may, you w ill , say " This man has been an honest trustee." With regard to my opinions on this point, I know it was said in 1847 (when they say I ran away from a contest), that although the; corn-laws were abolished, I would be ready to revive them if I could. But so far was that from the truth, that I said on the hustings at Wakefield, at that same election, that he must be a madman who would re vive them if he could. It was carried by a large majo rity of the House of Commons, assented to by the House of Lords, and sanctioned by her Majesty, and I am not the man, in 1848, to try to revive those enactments. I Mr. \V. BARKER said that although the answer was not satisfactory, it was, at least, explicit. Mr. BROOK then called for three cheers for Mr. Roe buck, and may he be the man of our choice. The cheers were accordingly given, and the meeting broke up about one o'clock. There were probably from ten to twelve thousand persons present. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) ROTHERHAM, Nov. 28.—The electors and non-electors of this neighbourhood were last night addressed by Sir Culling E. Eardley, who, after having in vain endea- voured to persuade some townsman to introduce him, was obliged at last to have resource to one of his own tools, Mr. Carbutt. If Sir Culling would take a bit of friendly advice, he would retire at once, as there is not the slightest chance for him in the West Riding. We want no fanatic here. We are not asleep—let him not think we are. Denison 's the man for us, and about the only one fit to represent us in Parliament. He knows our ways and customs, our wants—he has lived with us —knows us all well, and out of the 35,000 we will award him at least 25,000 votes. What do we know of Sir Culling Eardley? He is a stranger amongst us, come to endea vour to promote his own ends by attempting to pour soothing syrup down our throats; but that wont do with Yorkshiremen. Before this day three weeks the narrow mihied bigot will have repented of ever having touched the ground he now treads on. NEW LI G H T.-BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT. CLARK'S DIAMOND OIL LAMP.

"~~:,, lONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN WORKS AT LI• Yearooz..—These works, which are of a similar descrip tion with those at Euston-square, are now nearly corn. pleted. The whole area of the station has been consi derably enlarged, and the mouth of the tunnel terminal. ing at Edgehill has been widened. The offices for the secretary's department, passengers, booking clerks, &0., though not on the extensive scale of those at Easton square, are handsome and commodious compared with their previously cramped-up condition, when they mere altogether inadequate for the traffic of twenty trains in and out per day. The new offices will be is use next week, the entire alterations and improvements at the ter minus having cost several hundred thousand pounds. The old façade, fronting St. George's Hall, the exterior of which is also nearly finished, is to remain, with some few alterations, such as carriage ways and promenades. The driftway of the immense tunnel, called the Victoria tunnel, running right under Liverpool, is nearly " through." It is two miles and a half long, and is in tended to connect the goods depot at Edgehill with the North Docks at the Mersey, so as to take all the foreign cargoes at the water's edge on to the railway, at a great reduction in cost of cartage. The operations have been very perilous, many of the houses and public buildings in Liverpool being only fifty feet above the point where the rails will be laid, and where the locomot*.ves with the goods train will have to run, which is expected to be the case by this time next year.

FINDING OR A BODY IN TUB THAMES.—Yester day some fishermen found the body of a woman floating off Hungerford-market, which they brought ashore, and had conveyed to the dead-house of St. Martin's parish. The body is that of a stout, middle-aged woman, appa rently of dark complexion, as nearly as could be ascer tained from its discoloured and bloated state. She was dressed in a figured black cotton gown, and the body appeared to have been in the water for some time. DISTRRSSING ACCIDENT.—DUKE or RICHMOND.--• On Thursday afternoon as the Duke and Duchess of Richmond were posting, in their coach and four, from Gordon Castle to the Victoria or Montrose station of the Aberdeen Railway. for the purpose of proceeding south wards, they met with rather a serious accident as they were passing Warburton, down the hill of Commist on , towards the North Water Bridge. At this spot, it ap pears, the leader on which the postboy rode by som e means stumbled, and br o k e i ts l eg in its fall, throwing its rider under the horses, and bringing down the other ani mals also.

The Duke and Duchess immediately alighted, and pro cured assistance from the farmer at Warburton, by whom the unfortunate man was instantly released, and sent into the Montrose Infirmary, about three miles distant.

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, or 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 consumniation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden 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, er 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 nnalleyed 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-PRESERVATION, illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs; with practical observa. ions on tke secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from solitary habits, excesses, or infection. By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, 84e. This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and much neglected branch of medical practice, 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 no 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 1 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, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. Ey un 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.

'Twas near the close of Eighteen Forty eight, Some tine in Aaturan—l forget the date — When to the astonishment of each and all, Old Winter favoured MOSES with a call. Striking in countenance, and sharp was he, And very old, for I was there to see. His snowy locks hung round his frosty face, Whose ruddy glow illumined all the glace. Two icicles, as ear-drops, I observed, For which, of course, they admirably served. On being introduced, he bowed his head, And thus unto the two great tailors said : " I've called upon you, gentlemen," said he, NFE.V.VeaVi Wititerdeawywral f .t r ; . nt . - 'Twas out-and.out, and I pronounced le- • . Bet please to tell me," said the old papa, " What kind of articles your present are 7.- " With pleasure," answered MOSES, both together, " We'll tell you what we have for Winter weather : First let us mention, vendrablo sire, Our admirable stock of NEW ATTIRE. You talk of last year's stock," said Messrs, MOSES, " But look at what our Warehouse now discloses : Coats, Overcoats, and Trousers we display, In styles adapted to the present day. Improvement is our watchword, Sire, and that's Apparelt also in our choice NEW HATS. A Hat," said MOSES, " from our stock of stocks, Would well become those beauteous snow-white locks. You can't imagine, Father," said the Hatters, " How much we've done in these essential matters ; Nor does our creiit one iota lose, When staked upon our prime NEW BOOTS AND SHOES. With Shoes like these, those poor old trots of yours Would not be plagued with bunions, corns, and sores. Another thing,we must allude to, Sir, And that's our present stock of choice NEW FTR. The ladies have pronounced them out-and-out, And what the ladies say involves no doubt. If you were not a bachelor, we guess, You'd bring the good old lady for some dress. A vast improvement also you will see In every feature of our HOSIERY. There's not an article in this choice store, But what the public values more and more. Such are the preparations we have made In each peculiar feature of our trade." " Well done 1" said Father Winter, and with that He took his stick, and donned his broad-brimmed hat. E.

Moses and Son regret being obliged to guard the public against impostors, but have learned that the untrsulestnaa reasons. like falsehood of being connected with them, or it's the same concern, has been resorted to in many instances, and for obviou s They have no connexion with any other house in or out of London; and these who desire genuine and chop; clothing, &0., should call at, or send to, Minories and Ildgate, City, London.

M One half the world are desolately single, stud the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, sr a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em witter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret tan comprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic h appiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marri age set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should forna an item In the compact; It alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er neglect wound more sorely than poverty or m isfortune .

The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a small saving cau secure through this Society. ENEFITS 11.

MUTUAL ASSURANCE 'II7IHE SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND and LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY is founded on the principle of Mutual Assurance or Contribution. The members are the sole proprietors—they are their own assurers, and the only parties inter ested In the fund. The Guarantee Fund set aside at last period of iavcstigation was upwards of 200,0001. This sufficiently secures the stability of the In stitution, and relieves it from the burden—which in proprietary com panies bears so heavily on the interests of the assured—of appropriat ing in many cases a large proportion of the profits to increase the value of the stock, and raise the dividends of the proprietors. The Whole Profits et this Society belong to, and are appropriated for behoof of the assured. Capital, realised from the accumulation of the Premiums, upwards of Two Millions. Anneal Revenue, Three Hundred Thousand Pounds. Average amount of Insurances durteg the last twelve years, up wards of Half a Million annually. PRESIDENT. The Right Hon. the EARL of ROSEBERT, K.T.
