An immense quantity of goods always on hand, suitable for imn - ,cd'ate use, made in first rate style and fashion, and at really astonishing prices. The Proprietor particularly invites attention to his Immense stock of waistcoats. the newest, and richest designs are always kept on hand, ready made, splendidly cut, and manufactured in the best possible manner: and he can say, without exception, that he is the largest maker in the kingdom, 1,000 Waistcoats being manufactured daily for his various Establishments.

" On the subject of these accounts, showing a ba lance or profit of 39,336/. 18s. 2d. upon the transac ,ions of that year, Mr. James observes : " ' This profit for the year 30th June, 1840, to 30th June, 1841, being much more than the average of the previous four years, it may pe r h a p s b e as we l l to offer some remarks in explanation. 'When I stated in Ja nuary last that the probable year's working or profit of your Society to the 30th June, 1841, would be equal to the average of the previous four years, I was well aware that there were circumstances in favour of the year above alluded to, to insure a full average of the previous four. The interest on the surplus, 30th June, 1840, would of itself form a large increase ; the reduced rate of expenses of management would be in full operation for that year, whereas it had been only partially felt in the previous four ; and lastly; I was sensible that the year's mortality had been most fa vourable, and although running against the Society as regards the annuities and endowment contracts, the loss upon that class of insurances would be much overbalanced by the gain upon whole life and :liort periods. These three matters, therefore, will fully account for the year's profit, 30th June, 1840, to 80th June, 1841, being more than the average of the four years 1836 to 1840.' " The year's profit here referred to by Mr. James raises the surplus assets at the 30th of June, 1841, to ' 183,016/. 10s. 6d., and on laying the details of the balance sheet before the Committee he remarks—' have no hesitation in reporting that, in my judgment, the several valuations and calculations forming the items in such balance sheet may be considered as truly made, and with perfect safety in reference to the future. The debts and other liabilities may also be relied upon as correct and true ; the reverse for future management or expenses in realization of the premiums is taken with perfect safety, as regards the probable future charges ; and upon the whole I feel satisfied that the surplus as above set forth may be considered a correct and safe surplus, and applicable for division amongst the assured.' "The Committee of Directors have the most im plicit reliance upon the judgment of Mr. Galloway, by whom the several valuations of the policies and pre miums have been made —supported as those valuations are by the calculations of Mr. Morgan, the Society's Actuary —as well as upon Mr. James, by whom the accounts have been examined and closed, and the re sults as above set forth drawn out ; and they therefore no hesitation in recommending the -ueciara don of a bonus.

" The Com m itt ee cannot close this Report without referring t o th at part of their last Report ('2Bth January, 1842) which alludes to the fact that all who enter this Society under the age of forty-five, are ins sured at premiums considerably lower than those taken by mast other offices, whilst from forty-five to sixty, this Society only gradually approaches the rat es of those offices.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.—A distressing and fatal accident occurred here this morning. Two brothers, the sons of Mr. William Belt, of Brunswick-square, London, went early to bathe, accompanied by a ser vant, near the Castle Jetty. There was much surf on the beach from last night's gale, and either by tile force of the tide making round the, jetty, or the re surge, they were carried out of their depth, and most unfortunately tile younger brother, aged about seventeen, and the servant, were drowned. The elder brother, aged about 22, was rescued, and conveyed home in a very exhausted state. The two bodies were quickly recovered, and every means used to restore animation but in vain. Mr. and Mrs. Belt, who are residing in Guildford-lawn, are, with their family in a sad state of agony at this unexpected bereavement. The Queen, East Indiaman, for Calcutta, first voyage, lost her fore and ma i n t opmasts o ff h ere i n a squall, last night, and is now at anchor, preparing spare topmasts to replace the loss. 'This place continues quite full. Sir Edmund Filmer's family have left this week, and his house is already occupied by Sir Gregory Lewin. His Ex cellency Prince Esterhazy, Prince Louis Liechten stein, the D owager Lady Essex, Count Joseph Maz zinghi, th e B aroness French, Admiral Sir John and Lady Lawford, the Baroness de Noual, .are amongst those who continue at this favourite watering place. The Magistrates here have acquired some notoriety by a late cropping operation, by their goaler, of certain comedians who were in custody, which they, on a complaint, sanctioned. The circumstance appears to have excited the attention of the Home-office, and Mr. Whitworth Russell has been sent down by Sir James Graham to investigate the case, and to report upon it. F EAVER'S EMBROCATION ,sTtalffCordDshOirLeo, onh E ne U a N r l l A v T al l sa S l ll 4 l q &c.G Surgeon,O U 1 4 Copy of a Letter addressed by Trevor Holland , EU Es for the 6th July last, of armock,C ßH to the Editor of the " Times :" ,g sir,— I think it a duty I see to thepublic to the e ffi cacy of a remedy which I met with make known accidentally, m and which has been of such wonderful benefit to months ago I met with a very severe accident , m yself. dome having cated and fractured my ancle severely. From th tender ness of the joint I was quite unable to walk, the erellmt tinned very much swollen and adematous, and I suffered dreadfully from severe attacks of spasms in the night, which extended from the ancle to the leg, thigh, back, and to the arms. Having exhausted every resource of relief which I and my medical friends in the country could suggest, to n o purpose, I set out for London with the intention of con sulting Sir Benjamin Brodie or Mr. Liston—then to adopt sea bathing. By accident I met with Mr. Feaver, 16 Ludgate-hill, who applied his Embrocation, and; to my great astonishment, I had no spasm that night, nor have I had one since. The next morning I came down stairs without my crutches, and was able to walk, the swelling of the limb soon subsided, and I am now rapidly recovering. Having for many years had an ex teesive medical practice in the county of Stafford, I know of no medicinal compound possessing such wonderful efficacy. In adding my testimony to 111 r. Feaver's Embrocation, I am ac tuated by no other motive than gratitude to him, and a sincere desire to make known his invaluable remedy to my fellow-suf ferers. Possessing, as I ever did, the strongest prejudice against everything in the shape of quackery, I should be the last man to uphold a system which, generally speaking, I know nothing but a nefarious traffic and humbug. " I am, your obedient servant, " TREVOR HOLLAND, Surgeon. ciumoek, near w a f s e, Staffordshire. " P. S. At the various consfiltations held upan my case, the surgeons and physiatans (including myself) were decidedly of opinion that the frequent violent attacks of spasms would ter minate in lock jaw, but, es I h;ve before stated, I have not had the slightest symptoms of spasms since " the first application of this extraordinary embroeatiou.—T. ff. This justly-celebrated remedy (which is equally efficacious in any of the above afflictions) may be obtained of, or through any respectable wholesale or retail Chemist in Town or Country, at the Depot, corner of Wellington-street, Strand ; or from the Proprietor, Mr. Feaver, 16, Ludgate-hill, London, The third anti last flower show ofthe South London Florticultural Society for the present season, will be held this day in the Surrey Zoological Gardens.

NORWICH UNION LIFE OFFICE. A numerous body 'of the assurers in the above Society met at their office on Friday last, to receive the Report of the Directors, and to take into con sideration their recommendation on the propriety of declaring a bonus on all policies affected previous to June, 1841. E. T. BOOTH, Esq., having taken the chair, S. BIGNOLD, Esq., the Secretary, read the ad- , vertisement which convened the meeting. The CHAIRMAN then rose and said, that he had much pleasure in meeting so large a number of the Proprietors on the present occasion ; he would state to the meeting that some circumstances, which it had been out of their power to control, had been the reason of their not having been called together some what earlier, but be could assure them the time had been well employed in making the accounts more complete. He was happy to think a few circum stances had occurred which had created a more friendly feeling than had existed among them on former occasions, and the prosperity of the establish ment had greatly increased.—(Cheers.) He hoped after the Report had been read, that all angry feeling, which had previously existed against this office, would cease—that whatever might have been the feelings, or however high might have been the w ords used against the office on any former occasion, they would now be buried in oblivion—(Hear, hear)—and that every one of them would endeavour, by every possible means in their, power, to promote the interest of the establishment.—(Cheers.) In conformity with a resolution passed in January last, they had now placed before them a full and clear statement of the affairs of the Company, with the view of declaring what shall be the amount of the bonus. He would now call on the Secretary to read the Report, after which he would be glad to answer any question that might be addressed to him.—(Cheers.) The SECRETARY, having read the minutes of the former meeting, then read the following Report : " The Committee of Directors have much satisfac tion on meeting the assured this day, enabled as they uow are to lay before them the result of the transac tions of the Society for the year, from June, 1840, to June, 1841, with . the b a l ance - s h ee t at t h e l atter period. " ley regret that some little delay has taken place in calling the present meeting, which must be attri bided to the anxious desire of all concerned that the accounts should be fully examined, and the calcula tions made on the most accurate data ; but they have, now every confidence in stating that these ob'ects have been accomplished, and it affords them very high' gratification to acquaint the Members, that the sur plus resulting from the operations of the Society during the year from Jane, 1840, to June, 1841, has considerably exceeded the average of the previous four years.--(Cheers.) "The accounts for that year have been carefully investigated by Mr. James, who reports that he has pursued the same course of examination which he had previously done. Upon this subject he states : " The policies and premiums have been ascertained with the same care. .The valuation of those policies and premiums have been made by Mr. Galloway upon the same basis ; and the same test has been applied to those several valuations as heretofore adopted, and fully explained in my Report of December last. The debts and liabilities have been most carefully ascer tained.' THE BODY OF A GENTLEMAN FGUND IN THE BMX T HAMES , WITH AN IMMENSE SrM OF GOLD AND SILVER oN HIS PEnsox.—On Sunday morning, between elms and twelve o'clock, the body of a gentleman, apparently about 45 years of age, was found in the River Thames, oft Rotherhithe, by some watermen proceeding in their boat down the river. They got the body into their boat, and conveyed it on shore to the workhouse. On search ing the person of the deceased g a large a old and silver moneys. to tnount, were found, as also a gold watch and key.

The following letter • was addressed by Lord Brougham to the Committee in reply to an invitation to attend a late meeting of the institute:— Brougham, August, 29, 1842. Gentlemen,.—l feel much honoured by your invita tion to attend the meeting of the two bodies, now so happily united, and I assure you that it would have been a great satisfaction to me if I had been able to meet my old and esteemed constituents at Leeds upon such an occasion. Unfortunately this is out of my power, and I can only, in expressing my regret, add also the expression of my hearty good wishes for the continued prosperity of these excellent associations. Every thing that has passed since we met, and all that is still going on in various parts of the country, can only tend to impress more deeply than ever upon one's mind, the supreme importance of a sound and judicious system of edtication, as well to the stability of our institutions, and the of the wealthy, as to the happiness of the working classes. The failure of the late attempt to make the distress so generally prevalent a means of disturbing the peace, is most creditable to the people. Even in the few instances of some misguid ed persons for a moment forgetting their duty, they showed a distrust of themselves and of each other, the result of that habitual respect for the law and aversion to illegal proceedings, which so honourably marks the character of Englishmen. This great merit should never be forgotten by their rulers. The first duty of a Government, as I have often told you, is to execute law firmly that it may be respected, and to amend it judiciously that it may be beloved. Much has lately been effected in this parti cular; and although you and I naturally wish to see more accomplished, we must on this account the more anxiously desire a continuance of peace at home and peace abroad—well assured that they who would in terrupt either, are the greatest enemies to every im provement of our institutions.--I have the honour to be, your faithful servant, H. BROUGHAA SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. MOH THE EVENING PAPERS. OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—The custom of locking people up on frivolous charges has of late been so frequently sanc tioned by the Magistrates, that we are happy to find an instance in which the practice has been denounced from the bench, as it well deserves to be. The object of imprisonment before a case has been judicially in vestigated is security, not punishment ; and if precau tions are taken that an accused party will meet the charge against him at the proper time, he ought to have no further restriction placed upon his liberty. In a case reported this morning, it appears that an individual had been given into custody for stealing a candlestick from a house of a certain description, in which he had been attacked, and where, in order to defend himself, he laid hold of the article he was alleged to have stolen, but threw it down into the street directly he found himself in safety. Not withstanding this was explained to the policeman, he took the party to the .station-house, where the superintendent received the charge, a fact which eli cited the following just remarks from the Magistrate:-.- "Mr. Cottingham said that it was stretching the law too far to deprive any of her Majesty's subjects of his liberty on such a vague charge; that at all events bail ought to have been accepted for the appearance of the accused at this Court, instead of locking him up ; and the superintendent ought to have known that he was vested with the authority of exer cising a discretionary power on such an occasion." These observations are so obviously true, and the duty of the superintendent under the circumstances was so extremely straightforward and clear, that his ignorance of how to act—which we presume to have been the cause of his acting wrongly--fully deserved the censure of the Magistrate. We agree with Mr. Cottingham, that the superintendent ought to have known that bail should have been taken," and also that he "ought to have made the complainant enter into her recognisance to appear to support the charge." A precaution that, considering th‘ position of the per son who made it—the keeper of the house in which the dispute arose—was especially requisite. We trust that the opinions expressed on this occasion by Mr. Cottingham may serve as a guide to other Magis trates, who are in the habit of taking very strange views of the liberty of the subject, and of the right of the police to interfere with it. STANDARD.—Our attention is again summoned to the Dublin University election, by more than one Contemporary, and by several correspondents. We are charged with injustice to the pretensions of Mr. Hamilton, which some Contemporaries and some cor respondents set out at great length, Now this is surely beside the matter. The grounds of claim to public confidence are public services ; if Mr. Hamilton can fairly lay claim to any such services, the public knows what they are, and it is not in our power to conceal But what are the services ascribed to amilton ? They all amount to this, that he as expended fifty thousand pounds in various efforts, generally unsuccessful, to procure his own return to Parliament. W hy, it is understood that Sir John Hobhouse has expended twice the sum, and we could name a dozen men, as little suspected by the world of any political principle as the ex-President of the Board of Control, who have each expended in the same ambitious pursuit jnore than Sir John ; and this, too, in a country where money expended upon elections is not regarded, as from late contro versies it seems to be regarded in Ireland, as an ad venture in the lottery of professional advancement. However, putting all other considerations aside, we hold thel fact that Mr. Smith has, and Mr. Hamil ton has not, received his education in the University of Dublin, decisive upon the question of the election. We maintain that any University which does not choose its representatives from among its own alumni pronounces upon itself the most cutting censure. First, the letter of the law commands such a selection ; next, the usage—an usage never departed from by Oxford or Cambridge, and rarely by Dublin, if ever, before Mr. Shaw's most inauspicious election__ confirms the legal injunction ; and, let us add, that both law and usage are based in the soundest principles of utility, WO have before often contended for the benefit of the principle of local preference, In both insuring honest representatives and honest e l ect i ons, and thii with reference to all :constituencies ; bet the ease of the Universities is infinitely the 44.0figest. The period o f he era University educationeducationion with ,most cited men, ttheir tbrmation of charaeter...of the forma tion of friendships, and, if we may so speak, of the formation of the pr;neipie s which are to guide them in after life, Now, who can so fairly or so use fully repres en t a constituency like the constituen cies of our Universities as one from themselves ? modelled to the same character, bound by the s ame friendships, and imbued with the same principles as all of them? We are not arguing for the rights of the Dublin electors only ; we are maintaining the rights common to all University electors, whether of Oxford, Cambridge, or Dublin. Suppose the venue changed, as a lawyer would say; suppose that the contest lay for a seat, not for the University of Dublin, but for the Uni versity of Oxford—would any one venture to say that Mr. Smith, a Dublin m an , stood vnii it Rioting of equality with Mr. Hamilton, an Oxfbrd man We doubt whether in the University of Oxford any one would be so impudent as to propose the stranger. It is humiliating enough for Dublin University that she has permitted the question to be raised, them. Mr. On Sunday, about dusk, the body of an appa rently respectable female was diScele - ridin the Regent's Canal, opposite the Ben Jonson public house, StePne3:9 whither it was immediately conveyed, but life had evi dently been f. some ho,ilr4 cAititwt.

Two ivatermen, named James Stewart and David Eld, each with a boat, instantly put off to their assistance, and they were fortunate ly all pi c k e d up with out having susta i ne d any material injury, (FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) •`-. COWES, SEPT. 11.—The Belgian steamer British Queen left this port for New York at thirty minutes past eleven this morning. She took on board nearly 70 passengers here, and brought five with her from Antwerp. She had only about 60 tons freight. The wind was light from the N.W. She is likely to have a fine passage down Channel. The Earl of Shannon has sold his beautiful castle and grounds at East Cowes, the favourite residence of the late John Nash, Esq. e - • Mr. R. STEWART having seconded the resolution, The CHAIRMAN put it to the meeting, when it was adopted. Here a question arose relative to the mo.6t, equitable mode of dividing the bonus,_ which Ivas explained by the Direct ors , w h o said, they had felt the force of it themselves; in consequence they ha(ltrlen the highest legal opinions on the question, which were in favour of the mode now adopted by them. Mr. Alderman PAREHROTHER remarked, they had now their most pleasing duty to perform ; it was an ex pression of their gratitude to the Directors for tha able Manner they had carried themselves through on• (Lof most severe ordeals men had ever passed.— oud cheers.) .He would, therefore, move—" That this meeting desire to exp ress t h e i r unqualified n& dente in the integrity and judgment of the Directors, and in their full determination to watch over the future interests of the Society, and also to offer; to the Chairman their best thanks for his valuable services this day." Mr. LLOYD, of Birmingham, had great pleasure in seconding thcresolution,having been one 1)f those who had been appointed to examine into the conduct of the Directors. He felt that the thanks of the Pro prietors were eminently due to the Chairman and Directors for the arduous duties they had perfor me d while in offi ce; th ey b ad carried out ail that had been recommended to them by the Examiners—(Cheers) and he (Mr. Lloyd) had travelled several hundred miles to sneak to the point at this meeting., Which be did with the highest satisfaetion.—(Cheer:,) It way then carried with acclamation. The CHAIRMAN could assure the meeting that th e conduct which h a d rece i ve d suc h expressions of ap probation this day, would continue to be pursued by the Directors, and he hoped at their next meeting —he th er e s. ge ) neral Ineet they would be found still equally deserving of the t h d e ou t b h t an an ge: confidence Those u hoof havethe r P e r g o u p i Proprietors.—(Cl ew. attendedrs . r•emblage in ings of this Society which have so frequenth;• t a k e , toplratceeoonf late this 3:weacrass,ionm.usAt thathveeirmfiarsrtkedteaa_d, 1837, great distrust was manifes arixietl was marked on many a brow, the question on their mind was, are our familie4 to be provided 16r at our death, or not ?

LANDING OF THE ARCH-DUKE OF AUSTRIA. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) bEVONPORT, SATURDAY. --The Arehdiirke Frede• rick of Austria landed here to-day, at two o'clock, having arrived in command of the Austrian frigate Bellona, at an early hour of the ''.ay . She came to anchor in the Sound, and at twthe o'clock the Admi ral's tender, the Sylph, was despatched to the vessel to bring his Royal Highness on shore. A guard of honour from the 24th Regiment was drawn up on Mount Wise, and a party of Artillerymen was sta tioned at th e guns o f t h e upper battery , ready to fire a royal sal u t e .

He wished to ask Mr. James whether, in making up the accounts, he had given credit to Mr. Bignold for 2,0001. or 2,500/.? Mr. JAMES replied. Since 1839 Mr. Bignold had only drawn for 2,0001. a year on account. of salary, and 250/. more for coals, repairs, and expenses. Mr. Alderman FAREHROTHER observed, that on that occasion he had taken the liberty of asking Mr. Bignold to waive the discussion of the question, and leave it open for a future period, as it would then tend to disturb the harmony of the meeting.—(Hear, hear.) Here a long and friendly discussion took place be tweeinvarious parties in the room ; and it was evident the general feeling \vas in favour of increasing Mr. Bignold's sal ar y to 2;500/. a year; this way ecrafirmed by the following resolution having been pat an 4 ear.. tied without one dissenting voice. The CHAIRMAN said a resolution him, heen moved and seconded, which lie would put tii the meeting. " That it appearing by the statement of Mr. James, in answer to the question of Mr. Alderman ' Fare brother, that the Secretary has only drawn for the sum of 2,0001. per annum since December, 1839, in stead of 5 per cent. on the premiums, to which he is en titled under the deed of settlement, which was con firmed at the last general meeting, this meeting, taking into consideration all the circumstances of the and definitively at the stun surrender by him of his vested interest under the November., 1836." deed, recommend the Committee of Directors to place The SECRETARY then rose and said, ne could not sufficiently express his thanks to those gentlemen who of his T 2 l irseioslllosul‘.lpeer remuner a tion t n ia l 'un n u n fil o nn u af s lr l i y yo I uT° vadopted, had put so liberal a construction upon his conduct. He begged them to look at the state of the Society at the present moment. He felt it would bear a coma parison with nine-nenths of the societies in London.— (Hear, hear.) He was grateful for the 'expr e "i ons which had fallen from Mr. Ald. Farebrother. The Rev.

He hoped the Proprietors wor.id exert themselves in favour of the establishment; if they did it would rise still higher, not only at hone, but in the opinion of the whole world.—Oe'ers) He would now move, " That the highly sat;!Silictory Report sub mitted by the Directors to' this general meeting, be received,adopted, and printed, for circulation amongst the members of the Society." Mr. LOCKWOOD, in seconding. the resolution, said, he gladly responded to everything which had fallen from the Reverend gentleman. Mr. T. BIGNOLD would inform the meeting, that the gentleman who had seconded the resolution for receiving the Report was the father of the Sf ic i ety; he standing N o . 1 survivor in the books.—(ll,:ar.) Mr. R. J. H. HaavEr, one of the Tru3tecA of the SoCiety, begged leave to move that .the borai s recom mended in the Report be immediately carried into effect. After the close examination which the ac. counts had gone through, and the clear exposition of that day, they could not hesitate carrying it out. He would therefore move—" That pursuant to the re commendation of the Directors a bonus of ten per cent. be now declared on the amount Of premium received, in respect. of. all, policieS in existence on June 30, 1841, and e%cted for the whole duration of life." 0 0 19 11 1 24 3 6 o 0 u 0 a 0 iu 0 O 0
