This Association has been formed principally with the view of af fording to gentlemen engaged in 410VERNMENT and PUBLIC orricls, BANKING HOUSES, and MERCANTILE ESTA EL/SHMIINTS, a safe and advantageous mode of investing a portion of their incomes, either by way of deposit, at 71. per Cent. composted interest, or in the purchase of freehold or leasehold residences. The operations of this Society will be regulated by Tables prepared expressly ier that purpose by two eminent actuaries. The leading principles of this Society are— I. Perfect equality if benefit between all the Members, whether borrowers or not. 2. Certainty in the amount of advance to which each Member Wilkie, to anticipate his Shares will be entitled at any given period of the Society's existence, with the means of ascertaining precisely at any date the amouat payable to retiring Members, and the valae of the Sharet of continuing Members. Members may pay up the whole or any portion of their subscrip tions for the ten years, in advance, and discount, after the rate of 41. per Cent. per annum, will be allowed for the sums so paid. Members wishing to withdraw their Subscriptions may do se after the first year, without tine ; and subsequently to that period com pound interest at the rate Of G. per Cent. per annum will be allowed upon the Nuns withdrawn, Shares may be transferred free of stamp duties. ley the plan adopted in this Society new Members entering at any period, and all Members taking up additional Shares, may have loans advanced to them without paying up arrears of Subscriptions ; and the precise amounts that will be advanced either to old or new Members, are set forth in the Tables, a copy of which will be sup plied to every Member. This is manifestly far preferable to the un equal and objectioaable system usually adopted of putting the shares up to auction, and advancing the money to those who submit to the largest discount ; by which means the object of the Legislature, which contemplated that each Member should derive precisely the Same advantage, Is entirely frustrated. The monthly subscription, both to the borrowing and non-borrow ing Members, is precisely the same, and continues the same to the end of the Society; borrowers are, therefore, relieved from the heavy monthly " redemption fee," and the mutual principle is car ried into full operation. No Member has any responsibility beyond the payment of his own Subscriptions. A Public Meeting for affording further explanations of the objects of the Society and its system of operations, will be held at the Lon de) Tavern , Biehopsgate-street, en WIDNiaDA.Y EVENING, 26th January instant, at Half-past Six for Seven o'clock precisely.

RAISING WATER discovered by the FOUN TAIN PUMPS, which roll the water upwards, witkout either friction or faltering, therefore can never bs surpassed ; conse quently this is the most importrcit discovery ever made for the pre servation of life and property either at Sea or cat Land. AT SEA numerous ships it has already saved, and the captains gratefully ac knowledge the glorloes results. Two testimonial extracts shall " Captain Greig, from Quebec to London, states that the Fountain Pump being fitted in the Caroline, its great power was the means of saving the ship and 230 souls on beard, two seams la the bottom being partly lett withmt calking." " The Argus brig, from Cadiz, sprung a leak when three days out at sea, and soon after her common pump cheaked and became use less. Captain Rutherford states all then depended upon her Foun tain Pump, which for nineteen days and eighteen nights was is ac tion without a minute's respite, when all arrived safely in London, with a thank God for the Fountabs Pump." ON LINT) the New Portable Fire-engines are of infinitely better service than a fire brigade. They act instantaneously at tke outbreak if a fire. "We are delighted with the invention—it is a great hoe* to so eiety."—Editors Liverpool Mail. The New Portable Fire-engines have preserved a large portion of Norwich from destruction, for out of eighteen different properties on ire in and near the city, they saved eleven solely and seven maialy, including in the seven the Queen's Cavalry Barracks ; and in the eleven, Messrs. Hortoa's dyery, and 12,0001. worth of consigned pro perty ; Stoke mustard, starch, and flour mills, and Messrs. Butcher's grocery warehouses, just in thus to prevent a large quantity of gun powder therein from exploding, 'which must have spread aroand de struction and death North Walsharn.—At this fire the Portable Engine was of great service, and by having one of them ready, there is no doubt but half the property now destroyed might have been saved."—Norfulk Chro nicle, August 12, 1846. At a Norwich fire June 2, 1847, the two Portable Engines were the pets of the public. The cry was, feed the little engines and they will do the work, which proved true. The four large engines present proved useless. Portable Engines speedily prove steam-boilers to a dozen atatir spheres. Now the fast is this, all former Force Pumps, Lift-force Pumps, Lift Pumps, and Chain Pumps are bad machines: they rub, grub, aid scrape the water upwards by friction, which wastes two-fifths of the power used, and progressively falter by leakage, which Dra. 'Young and Mittel, with many other eminent experimenters. lamented thus :—The quantity of water actually raised by any machine seldom exceet's half the power • consumed, after overcoming friction and leakage ; and notwithstanding the best engineers in the world bad tried in vain for two thousand years to abate these palpable defects is l; draulic machines, nevertheless, at last the victory is won, aid won for ever ; for friction and leakage are now both annihilated by the new rolling principle in pumps, and their effect augmented from twelve to twenty (or about seventy per cent.), and frequently with out mere outlay. Most mem can sustain heavy rapid , pump trials for 40 seconds, but some men drop at minute time. With a best new heavy working Fric tion Pump an active sound-winded young man of 140 lbs weight can raise 10,100 lbs. of water one foot high in a minute, and with a Foun tain Pump 9,001 lbs. in half a minute. Thus a continual and most extraordinary lucrative advantage is gained ever perpetual and uni versal ignorance, clearly proving that Knowledge is Power. John Clenton Roberts, Esq., in his popular work, No. 1,110, did well in placing Gosset's French Pump Abortion (that slaps the water upward) side by side with the Fountain Pump, which upset a good deal of Felly. Because Mr. Mallett, Dublin, a thorough-bred pump maker, Mr. Baddley, London, an everlasting pump-writer, and Mr. Ewbank, America, an - iguorant pump book-maker, asserted that the two pumps were identical. But the Yankee out-fooled John Bull and Paddy in No. 1.152, and in No. 416, Book-maker Millington's remarks are preposterous. However, on the other hand, Dr. Birk beck, Aberdour, Hay, Parkington, with many other discerning men, after witnessing the perfect effect and the beautiful simplicity of the rolling principle, gave the inveation the following true and glisten able eharacter:—The Fountain Pump is the most important improve ment in the art of raising water that has appeared within the last two thousand years—the greatest advancement in the useful arts in modern times. The Consummation Fountain Pumps are successfully carried cut for private and public uses, at lifts below and above 100 ftet altitude, for man, horse, and steam power; delivering from half a pint per stroke to ISO barrels of water per minute, and rendering every fair trial at competition ridiculous, whilst their durability is guaranteed at less cost than common pumps.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of tke London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its trim source in every instance disclosed, In how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when used In moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific soiree of mischief, and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses. on he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the kaman frame, than any other to which it Is subject. This work contents as accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions In health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more imoortance than the preservation of the health, and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicieus habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequence.s, unwisely entertains a tear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and tke dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seelifig for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that acenrate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease, sympethy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, Inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medico! man who can show by hi., posse Bien of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and tweet in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a ellarantee for his professional experisnee, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

The object of this Association is totally to abolish the use of cl i m bing boys, who, notwithstanding the penalties to which those employing them are eubjeoted by the 3d and 4 ,11 t Victoria, cap. 85, are continually resorted to, This breach of the law is sengrewd in by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im possibility in innumerable eases of cleansing a chimney or flee with the old machine. For the laudable Wpm+ of fUrthering the objects of the law by avoiding all neeessit.7 for its infringement, the m g , nions and effective Ramoneur machine has been invented. This invention consists of four brushes forming a square head, which or expands, according to by means of elastic springs Colltrgets the entail or extended space in which the [Whine moves, thereby creating an tun pressure on all four sides of aiii4PleY. The rods attached to this kead or brash are supplied at intervala with universal spring joints, eapa4lo of turning even a right angle and the whole is surmounted wfth a ,double revolving ball, having also a uni-fersat spring joint, which leads the brnsh with Certainty past every angle, AM Into every corner, cleansing route most Perfectly.

OUT-DOOR ''REPEF—EMPLOYMENT. DUBLIN, JAN. 17.—The Poor-law Commissioners have forwarded to Mr. Hugh Morgan Tuite, of Tonna, Westmeath, the following important communication in reply to a letter from him, objecting to stone breaking as a test for the able-bodied paupers receiving out. dcor relief. The Commissioners adhere to the principle of their regulation, but only as a test at the outset, promising to sanction more useful labour if circumstances should render a modification necessary, but positively refusing, in any event, to permit pauper labour on private farms : " Poor law Commission Office, Dublin, Jan. 13, 1848. " Sir,—The Commissioners for administering the laws for relief of the poor in Ireland have had under consideration your communication of the 6th instant, in which you state objections to the employment of paupers receiving out-door relief in theMullingarUnion in stone-breaking, and you suggest that it would be more preferable to employ them in useful and remu nerative works, such as repairing roads, and in fencing, trenching, and draining land, whereby you state that the labourers would not be congregated together in large numbers (which you deem objec tionable), but would be scattered over the country in small numbers, under the superintendence of persons interested in the welfare of the country, and of the works in progress, thereby avoiding the great expense of superintendents. " In reference thereto the Commissioners desire to state, that in recommending stone breaking as the kind of employment which should be offered to the destitute able-bodied poor in the first instance, the Commissioners did not cnntetnplate the permanent employment of many thousands of individuals in nothing else but stone-breiking. The view which the Commissioners have taken of the subject has been, chat whereas all experience has shown that the ,4ranting relief to able-bodied men, without some rigid test, is liable to great abuses, and whereas stone-breaking is less attractive and more capable of effectual superintendence than any other kind cf out door labour on a large scale, it is advisable for guardians to begin by Offering stone-breaking to applicants, when there is no longer any vacant workhouse accommodation in the union. " With reference to the expense in paying overseers of work, the Commissioners have to express their entire conviction that efficient superintendents of labour would save the union far more than the amount of their own salaries, by preventing imposi tion and fraud. Similar objections were raised in England, in 1834, to the expense of workhouses, but notwithstanding the immediate expense arising from the building of workhouses, and the salaries to work house officers, the total reduction of expense in the first year was, in some unions, 20, 30, and even 50 per cent. In fact, it is to be borne in mind that, if any system of relief is attractive, one of the chief sources of expense arises from the great number of improper objects to whom such relief is administered, and hence arrangements by which the abuse is checked are found, in the long run, to be really economical, although the system of arrangement may be apparently expensive. " The commissioners, therefore, tru s t that a fair trial will be given to the experiment of stone break ing, as a test of destitution in Mulingar union; and if the number of able-bodied men on the relief lists still remain the same as betbre, the commissioners will endeavour to forward the views of the guardians in reference to the completion of the unfinished roads. " The commissioners have only to add, that they would not, under any circumstances or consideration, deem themselves justified in permitting the employ ment of paupers on private farms. It is an essential principle in any sound system of poor-law adminis tered, that, relief and wages should be kept totally distinct, and that a destitute able-bodied man should either be relieved wholly by the union, or employed wholly by the party for whom he works. 'The commissioners are convinced that the in• fringement of this principle would lead to pernicious consequences, and by making employers of labour suppose that they had a pecuniary interest in intro ducing a system of out-door relief to the able-bodied men, it would eventually entail an enormous burden on the poor-rates, which the property of the union would be wholly unable to support. By order of the commissioners, "H. M. Tuite, Esq." " NV. STANLEY, Sec. STATE OF THE POOR. From the south and west, the accounts of the increase of destitution are most afflicting. The Galway Mercury says—" It is now no un common thing to hear of human bodies lying for days uninterred for want of coffins. On Friday last we beheld no less than fifty-six of our fellow-creatures, pale, wan, and emaciated, committed to our county gaol for acts of petty larceny—such as stealing turnips, and the like articles of food, in the neigh bourhood of Clifden. On the same day we learn that there were two other batches of thirty-five and eleven each from another part of the county. The same occurs every day. While undergoing the term of their sentences they will get food, but what will become of them afterwards." The Cork Reporter gives a statement of increasing destitution in various parts of the county, and of some deaths from starvation. STATE OF CRIME. There are not many new outrages, but the pro ceedings of the Quarter Sessions Courts, as well as the special commission, exhibit a fearful array of crime. At the Tralee Quarter Sessions, last week, a eon sidersable number of prisoners were sentenced to transportation, chiefly for the stealing of cattle. Ten persons pleaded guilty to a charge of riot, in oppos ing the collection of the poor-rEte, which, however, they had subsequently paid. They were sentenced to various terms of imprisonment. The assistant barrister, Mr. MDermott, remarked that the persons concerned in plundering cattle by wholesale in the county of Kerry, belonged to the better class of the peasantry, and were far removed from a state of desti tution. The T ipperary Constitut i on gives the following as an illustration of the good ' effects of the conviction of Frewen, at the Limerick Special Commission for har bouring a murderer : f Frewen, sentenced to lready has the conviction transportation for lite, for Ryan s heltering the murderer .
