This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most perfect security in an ample p a id- u p C a pit a l, an d i n the great success which has attended it, since its commence ment in 1834. In 1841 the Company declared an addition to the Share holders of one-half of their Stock, and also added 2/. per Cent. per Annum, from the date of the policies to those par ties who had insured with Profits. The Premiums nevertheless are on the most moderate scales and only a moiety need be paid for the first five years, where the Insurance is for life. The amount of bonus added to policies since the commence ment of the Company in March 1834, to the 31st December 1840, is as follows : Sum Assured. Time Assured. Sums added to Policy. £l,OOO 6 Year! 10 Months £136 13 4 1,000 4 Years BO 0 0 1,000 3 Years 6O 0 0 1,000 1 Year Every information will be afforded on application to the Resident Directors, Edward Boyd, Esq., and E. Lennox Boyd, Esq., of No. 8, Waterloo- place, Pall-mall, London. Frederick Hale Thomson, Esq., Surgeon, 48, Berners-street, attends at the Office daily, about Half-past Two o'clock. UNIVERSAL LIFE ASSURANCE OFFICE, I. King William -street, London. The Rates of this Office, rounded on the most accurate ob servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is consistent with perfect security. One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders; three-fourths to the former, and one .fourth to the latter. The remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of the succeeding years; and thus to provide against unforeseen contingencies. The first division of profits teak place on the 13th of May, 1840, when a reduction of 60 per cent. was declared on the current annual premiums of all those policies en►itled to parti cipation. The second division of profits was in May, 1841, and the third in 1842, on both of which the large reduction of 60 per cent. was declared.

Policies are granted in London, and by resident Committees at Calcutta, Madras, and Bombay, on India risks, at very ad vantageous rates, calculated from extensiv e data and tables, ex clusively in the possession of this Society, to show the true risk of life during residence in India, and after retirement from foreign service.

On Friday evening last a very interesting lecture on Hydropathy, or the Cold Water Cure, was de _ _ livered at he Royal Oak Assembly-rooms, Dover, by Captain Claridge, who is the author of a work on the subject. After a few general remarks the Captain related to. the audience his own experience of the be nefits to be derived from the system. He was suffer ing severely from rheumatism, headache, and weak ness of the eyes, for which he had consulted many physicians, and tried various remedies without ef fect, when he was advised to try the effect of this method. For this purpose he proceeded, with his family, to Grafenberg, in Silesia, the residence of Mr. Pri e s sn it z , th e originator of the system. Mr. Priessnitz was a peasant, without education ; and his skill in curing diseases originated in accident. He was severely injured by a kick from a horse, which broke two or three of his ribs. The surgeon whom he consulted sa id h e wou ld b e di sa bl ed for life. He, however, determined to attempt a cure, which he effected by cold water and spare diet alone. He afterwards performed several cures on men and animals. Grafenberg is situated about half way up one of the mountains of the Sudates. The establishment of Mr. Priessnitz is a very irregular structure, having been built at different periods ; but it has one noble room, which is used for meals and assemblies. The accommodations are very coarse, and, in consequence, Captain Claridge took up his quarters in the neighbouring town of Freiwaldau. He had not been long here before he was visited by two Englishmen, whom he had persuaded to apply to Mr. Priessnitz. They assured him they should owe him an eternal debt of gratitude, for their restoration to health. They then invited him to dine at the public table, where they sa t d own a b out 300 persons, and the aptain took occasion to remark the extraordinary flow of spirits which seemed to pervade the company, so different frOm what any one would expect in in valids. His friends then pointed out to him some extraordinary cures effected by hydropathy. One was a young lady, who went there with scrofula in her face and neck, so bad as to render her quite an object; in nine months she was so completely reco vered as to be considered the beauty of the room. Another case was that of an officer who, in conse quence of a wound, had his leg so withered that it was not thicker than his wrist. He shortly had the limb perfectly restored. Many others they pointed out. 'ie table is spread with plain food, and no restric tion is placed upon the patients, -except in forbidding the use of wine, beer, mustard, pepper, 8:c. The course prescribed by Mr. Priessnitz, for Cap tain Claridge, was the following :—At about four o'clock in the morning his servant brought a large coarse blanket, in which he was enveloped, and which was tightly fastened round his neck, and at his ' feet ; then, as many blankets as he could conveniently bear were heaped upon him, and on these a bed, so as effectually to exclude the external air; in this state he remained till six o'clock. In about an hour, per spiration took place, when the doors and windows were opened, and he was instructed to drink about a pint of cold water, by means of a pipe. At six o'clock the coverings were removed, and he had his faCe, chest, and shins washed with cold water, to prevent his taking cold. He then descended to he bath in a pair of straw shoes. In the bath he remained three minutes; dressed, with all the windows open, and walked, drinking cold water at various places (to the amount of about eight glasses), until he arrived at the estab- • lishment to breakfast, which was composed of milk, butter, and brown bread, with wild strawberries, for five months in the year. Then he descended the mountain by another path, and on his way took a douche bath, in which the stream flowing from the mountain is collected in a pipe. This is suffered to flow first on one part of the body; -then on another, and lastly on the part affected. From this he pro ceeded home, took a sitz bath—a tub with about six or nine inches of water, in which he sat for fifteen minutes • he then took a f oo t-b a th f or th e same l eng th of time, the servant rubbing his feet while they were in, the water. For the weakness of his sight he lay on the floor upon his back, and placed the back of his head in a basin of water for five minutes. He dined at one o'clock: at three repeated the same process, and walked until nine. For supper he ate the same as at breakfast. His daughter, who was supposed to be "consumptive, but who Mr. Priessnitz pronounced had merely outgrown her strength, being, as he expressed it, too tall for her breath, underwent a similar pro cess, except that, to produce perspiration she was en veloped in a wet sheet, instead of a blanket, and at night she wore a wet cloth upon her chest, and an other round her body. In less than three months she was perfectly recovered. The Captain remarked that he could see no reason why man should not live to 200 years of age. The inferior animals, it is calculated, live eight times as long as it takes them to arrive at maturity, and why not man ? He then adduced several examples of longevity. He gave an extract from a work by Dr. Itausse to the following effect :—" It is impossible for any man to die of any acute disease, while the patient has suf ficient strength left, to allow of water producing its re-action in him." He said that people never died at Grafenberg of any acute disorder. He states that there are now a hundred establishments on the same plan in Germany, and gave an account of the number of patients who have consulted Mr. Priessnitz in each year, from 1829, its commencement, to 1841. The total amount is 74000. CUPAR 'ANGUS--SUDDEN RISING OE A RIVER.— So suddenly did the river Ericht, near its conjunction with the Isla, a little beyond Cupar Grange, rise on Friday last, that it nearly swept the boatman and his coble down the stream, while crossing about mid-day. The river was at its usually low ebb and calmness at this season when he crossed with a passenger, which occupies about two minutes, and on his instant return it had risen so quickly, and so strong was the current, that he had great difficulty in effecting a landing, and the spot from which he emigrated so recently was occupied by a black foaming peatish flood. The late rains amongst the hills account in some measure for this uncommon flood; but the oldest persons in the district do not, from their earliest recollection, bring to mind a similar instance where so grea t a b ody of water came breasting down on the same day.—Perth shire Advertiser. DEATH IN BRIXTON HOUSE OF: CORRECTION._ On Monday Mr. Carter, the Coroner for Surrey, held an inquest in the Brixton House of Correction re- . specting the death of Henry Brice, a prisoner who had been committed from Union-hall, for fourteen days, for refractory conduct in Newington Workhouse. It appeared the deceased was one of those who would not work after breakfast, but preferred, as soon as that meal was over, taking a walk to some other place for the same purpose. By lying about in the open air and damp he had greatly impaired his health and con stitution, and was ill when admitted, and, although every attention was paid to him, he got worse, and expired. Verdict—" Natural death." WHIMSICAL PROJECT.—A young lady advertises, in - a morning paper, for some cancelled postage-stamps to paper her dressing-room. She states that she has collected nearly 16,000, but she finds that insufficient for the purpose, and will be :obliged to any good natured persons assisting her in her whimsical project.

Let it be understood that this has been as detestable as the greatest enemies of racing could desire, and I speak of it no more. By a paragraph that headed the list, we were told that in future cards were to be printed and sold here, as at every other race-course in the kingdom. This new regulation came into operation on Monday. So long as the card-women are not allowed to sell, or offer to sell, the cards, I have nothing to say against it. I need not comment on the nuisance these angels divine used to be at Ascot, and everywhere else, before the enclosures were made in front of the grand stands. There were six races on our opening day. Eight started for the Criterion, value 560/., and a pretty lot they appear to be. Odds were betted that Scot won, although no one would take any odds about Cother stone for the Derby.: in the last meeting 20 to 1 was taken freely about him, an evident proof that in the intervening week he had not done quite all that had been required of him. Gaper won very easily by a length, and afterwards 40 to 1 was offered against him for the Derby. What puzzles me quite is how the party could back Cotherstone for this race. Pine- 1 apple, by dint of perseverance, obtained second place, but I think Testy could have beat him single-handed. Canton was beat a long way, and was in no favour in the betting. For the Cambridgeshire, value 1,0801., eighteen started : two or three remained at home, not liking the weather. Had Mr. fat James Robinson chosen to get down to the weight. I suppose no one will now ima gine that Ralph could not have won the Cesarewitch ; and I expressed this opinion immediately after that race, as well as my opinion before that race, that he would win. I have been hardly treated. A finer race was never seen. These six were abreast as they entered the cords :—Ralph, Florence, Lady Adela, Garry Owen, Knight of the Whistle, and - Bellissima. The horse won very clever at last. There was very little betting on the race. Books were opened late, and I should saythere were very few losers or large winners. It is my opinion this race would be better run on the Tuesday. Vulcan, Mellor, and Florence were backed for more money a great deal than any other three. The Nursery closed in two classes, as I anticipated, this evening (Tuesday). The settling took place in the court-yard attached to the rooms. Why this should not be enclosed in a glass case, and the ad mission be one guinea per annum, I know not; I am sure it would be a most popular improvement; people are not fond of paying and receiving thousands in the wind and rain. There were again six races, but the matches were miscalled, for it was a pound to a shilling on each. A sort of a wrangle took place for the last race, but the winner won easy. Old Chifney displayed a fine bit of riding in the first, and, to give the devil his due, did win a race right out of the fire. Five races were run on the 'Wednesday : in the first Portrait and the Knight of the Whistle ran a dead heat, and the former, I believe, never did any thing better in his life: how they could back him as they did at 8 to 1 for the Cesarewitch is a mystery, but there are many such on the turf. Jeremy Did dler won the Jack Plate—i. e., the plate won by Jack last year—by a short head. Had the Prince of - Wales won, they would of course have taken 8 to 1 about him for the Derby. Another reason exists why they never should now—•he does not happen to be in the Derby. The betting on this was heavy after the races. Murat, Philip, and Jamal were backed to win great stakes ; the latter is entered in the Derby under the name of Bacon. Although in creasing the sport the dividing the Nursery into two classes proved an effectual check to book-making, for, up to this evening, I question if two bets were laid on the two races. OR Thursday we are gratified with the important declaration that it is not Lord George Bentincles present intention to run Gaper for the Derby. Now, as it is not my present intention to be Lord Mayor of London next year, Ido not say it is ; but if I did, and changed my mind in the spring, there is no Act of Parliament to prevent my so doing, and of what avail would have been my declaration? I re member the same manifesto coming out about a horse called Grey Milton. The public having their own curious wav of interpret ing this pretty language, immediately backed him heavily. I wonder if they will pay his Lordship the same ambiguous compliment a second time. There was a grand coursing match in the morning, and not much racing in the afternoon. Murat, looking rough and bad in the coat, won his race in a slovenly style, and Forester, like all the Irish horses, comes out after being beat half a-dozen times, and wins half-a-dozen lengths : his owner, however, has made a sad hash of what might have turned out a most valuable horse; he might have almost made a certainty of the next Goodwood Stakes. FRlDAY.—Rhodanthe has won a race at last, so ex claimed the ring after the Audley End Stakes. 'Ti s a long lane without a turning. On the first class of the Nursery there was very little betting, notwith standing one of the finest handicaps ever seen. Co therstone, I pronounce, will see a better day. More horses were backed in the second class, which was a good betting race, and which would have been a heavy one, had a little more time been allowed be• tweed the two. The fraternity would have preferred one class. Garryowen lost his match : the orders given to his jockey were surely most injudicious. In a short race, it seems preposterous that the little horse should wait upwards of two lengths behind his oppo nent, the horse pulling so hard that he appeared to run all over the course. Perhaps lam wrong, but I think, properly rode, Garryowen would have beat the mare. In spite of their being eight races already on the list for Saturday, the departures this evening were numerous. I told you in my last that we might fairly expect five and thirty races during the week ; thirty-eight were actually run, and four matches did not come off. I be lieve there would have been more, and that such a su perfluity would not have been reserved for the last day, had not the Marquis of Exeter been summoned to Windsor to attend her Majesty ; his Lordship did not get back to Newmarket until 'Friday night. Twelve races in the day are too much for man and beast—if Nat, the jockey, does not agree with me, I'll be upon Inv oath his hack does—this popular insect actually rode in ten races, and I have calculated that he could not have travelled much less than forty miles to do this. Of the ten matches it particularly behoves me to speak of those won by Celia, that I may introduce to your notice the extraordinary performances of the Touchstone stock (my favourite blood, as you very well know). Touchstone is the sire of Auck land, Blue Bonnet, Celia, Lady Adela, Rosalind, Dilbar, and (as in every litter there is always one very wretched little pig) Jack. Auckland was once tried to be an extraordinary good horse, Blue Bonnet won the St. Leger, Celia was amiss in the spring or would have won the Oaks in a walk ; if the running of her opponents right this last week, there is no three-year-old in training that would have a chance with her. Lady Adela was the only three-year-old in the Cambridgeshire Stakes not distanced ; she was a good third. Look at the run ning of Ma Mie, and recollect Rosalind beat her in a canter the other day. Dilbar was at 7to 4 for the Oaks, and beat Celia at Goodwood easy. I will leave the little pig .to squeak for himself. Cotherstone (goodness g racious , there .are only two other by Touchstone i n the Derby) runs a dead heat for the Nursery, not half prepared : reader, never forget him. I congratulate Lord Exeter most sincerely on his good fortune in possessing such a mare as Celia, a mare that beat in succession the three supposed speediest horses in Newmarket, viz. :—Garryowen, Cameleon, and Jeremy Diddler. Pompey has been lucky in his matches, having won them all. He was in the Derby, but is disqualified bythe death of the late Duke of Cleveland. — l;;;Cluding this last hebdomadal notice of the o last meeting this season, I have to s observe ond eep t d h tehh a oca t voten t rts h hei e_ d: wouldquestio n n o h t has be been expedient several October Meetings one week : as theLiverpoolAutumn Meeting is never to be more, the week afaterroDadonocuastittneherrete is free, and it cannot be said that the horses running weather t eera t a h tth e i oe l nr a , t a t ast e r ta p hl l et a h c bo e eug h g a ihn v n e siun a cg n h y oaf t n h t i ha n isb g ul t nas o dta d n o :. e N e N e • i ko t f h s t p h o e i :' October Meeting.

JUDEX. THE COTTON MARKET.—There was a revival of activity in the market during the week. The sees of which 10,000 were on amounted to 28,000 bags, speculation, A slight advance in price followed the increased demand. Forty bales of Orleans, of this 7ear's growth, recei ve d b y the Soon America from N - e w York, have been nearly all sold at Bd. per lb. It was a remarkably clean lot, good in colour and fine in staple.--Liverpoo/ Albion. FASHIONS FOR NOVEMBER. (Prom the World of Fashion Monthly Magazine.) CAPS are mostly composed of blond, and verdant green ribbon, surmounted with a wreath of geraniums. Others, of the form Marie Antoinette, are composed simply of lace, the foundation being of that material, trimmed all round with a single row of a light de scription of lace, and ornamented with a ribbon ron leau of green taffetas, pose in a kind of wreath under the lace, and which is attached on one side by a chou of green ribbon, having long ends; the hair, when arranged in the English c u rls, suits admirably with this bcoming little cap. COIFFURES.--FOT full dress the coiffure Rachel is still the greatest favourite, composed of gold net work and grenat velvet, having very long ends de scending on each side, and terminated with long gold tassels reaching to the waist. CAPOTES.—Satin capotes are very much in vogue at the present moment, particularly those in pale azure blue, or pink, and trimmed with a broad English lace lappet, forming a kind of half handkerchief over the crown, and descending on each side of the front in a sort of veil ; this lappet is interspersed with half wreaths or bouquets of beautiful flowers of the same shade as the bonnet. Those in velours epingle are also much in favour; the most distingue colour being a pearl grey glace with pink, and ornamented with marabout feathers to match, the interior of the capote being decorated with roses panachees, the same colours as the material of this most distinguished looking capote. NEW MATERIALS FOR WALKING DRESSES.—The richest kind of material for this description of dress, is the satin chatogants a lignes of two shades brochees; also Scotch velvets, les Armures gothique, gros de Tours, levantines doubles, velours d'Orent, and Pekins brochee. WALKING DRESSES.—The skirts of the dresses are now being made longer and of a greater width than ever ; the most favourite style of trimming being either three rows of tucks, or flounces; there is no change in the depth of the waists, but the lengthening of the skirts make us inclined to predict the return of the demi-trains—good taste forbids it l The sleeves Louis XIV., and a la Richelieu, retain all their favour. Pearl and French grey are decidedly the most fashion able colours for promenade dresses. CLOAXS.—The following has just made its appear ance ; it is the most elegant and recherche of its kind, being composed of velvet oreille d'ours, or bear's ear colour, the whole of the manteau being encircled with rich embroidery of the same colour but of different shades, and edged with a broad fringe in points of guipure. Satin cloaks will be mostly embroidered in fine soutache, or braid of different shades, having a very beautiful effect, the different shades giving the embroidery a raised appearance. DINNER DRESSES.—VeIvets and black satin are both very much in vogue for this style of costume, their appearance being particularly elegant when made in the following style—the corsage half high ; the back plain ; the front a cinq plis, reaching from the shoulder and descending en demi Stuart to the end of the bust ; berthe of rich black lace, the sleeves a l'Espagnol, having a long opening encircled with lace, and showing here and there an under sleeve of white satin ; manchettes of black lace, form Louis XIV.; of course, this kind of dress is mostly suited for ladies of a certain age, our younger elegantes pre fering dresses o f printed tarlatane over gros de Naples ; corsage en geroe ; sleeves Pompadour, de scending as far as the elbow, and trimmed with bon hommes in point of Paris. Fuss.--Sable trimmings will be much worn, in change with ermine. The camail will be greatly in favour this winter, made either entirely of ermine, or of velvet ornamented with ermine trimmings. Muffs also will be considered indispensable ; they will be mostly of ermine or sable ; in form they will be even smaller than those worn last winter, being ornamented at each end with broad white satin ribbon_ Les Wits houras or redingotes of velvet will be mostly trimmed with ermine, and pelerines to match. Cachmere cloaks are also being lined with ermine, the sides and all round the bottom having a flouncing (xf the same, reaching to the height of the knee. CRISPINS are now mostly used for an evening, and are composed of satin, wadded and bordered with swansdown. COLLARS.—Nothing can equal the beauty and rich. ness of the collars manchettes of the present day, par. ticularly those embellished with aragonaiss enab roidery. For young persons dea cols Yollande are mostly used, and are at once simple and graceful. Les &ham Marie Antoinette retain also all their favour, being a perfect assemblage of lace, forming a fichu of the most grace ful kind. We must also not omit mentioning des manchettes Moliere, des manches Ninon, and colle rettes Jeanne d'Arc. Fashionable Colours for the month will be different shades of green, violet, fawns, and shots—such as pink and lilac, violet and green, pink and fawn, marroon and ruby—great. FUNERAL OF GRACE DARLING. I The funeral of the heroine of the Ferne Islands took place at Bamburgh, on Monday week, and was attended by upwards of 200 individuals belonging to that neighbourhood, the principal mourners on the melancholy occasion being the venerable father, rela- tions, and friends of the deceased, whose severe be reavement excited the liveliest sympathy. The pall was borne by William Barnfather, Esq., from Aln wick Castle ; Robert Smeddle, Esq., of Bamburgh Castle ; the Bev. R. M. Taylor, of North Sunderland; and Thomas Bender, Esq., surgeon, Bamburgh. Mr. Evans, chief officer of the Customs, and the principal inhabitants of the village and neighbourhood joining in the sorrowful procession. The service was per formed by the Rev. William Darnell, incumbent of the parish. At the lowering of the coffin, and through out the whole of the service, many a tear was shed. The coffin, which was remarkably neat, bore the fol lowing inscription :—" G. H. Darling, died October 20, 1842, aged 26 years." A severe gale from the N.N.E. prevented the three brothers of the deceased from being present at the last mournful tribute of affection to their dear sister. It appears that for some time previous to the death of this truly excellent and exemplary young woman, she was perfecq aware that her latter end was approaching, but this gave her no uneasiness. She had been nurtured in the fear and love of God, and dependence on the merits of her Redeemer, and her hope of mercy in creased as her bodily strength diminished. She was never heard to utter a complaint during her illness, but exhihited the most Christian resignation through• out. Shortly before her death she expressed a wish to see as many of her relations as the peculiar nature of their employment would admit of, and, - with sur prising fortitude and self-command, she delivered to each of them some token of remembrance. This done, she calmly awaited the approach of death, and finally resigned her spirit into the hands of Him who gave it, without a murmur. The celebrity which this amiable female had acquired effected no change in her conduct or demeanour. She was from her earliest years of a meek, kind, and gentle disposition, and so she continued to the last moment of her exist ence. Having been once asked how she could think of continuing to reside on a barren rock after having become so celebrated, and why she did not come on shore and enjoy the pleasures of life, she replied-- "h.

PRESTON AND `'PYRE RAILWAY, HARBOUR, AND Docx COMPANY.—Monday the half-yearly general meeting. of the Proprietors was held at the offices, King William-street, City, when Sir Hesketh Fleet wood, Bart., M.P., took the chair.

The arrangement arra n and of the Union Railway for the supply t with the North had been abandon e d by of locom o ti ve power in th e item for mutual consent. The re ductionm for salaries exceeded 2,0001. per annum.

The deficiency in the traffic between 1841 and 1842 amounted to 54,000 passen gers, 5,5181. The assumed deficiency for 1843 would be 8,7631. Considerable discussion then ensued upon the state of the undertaking. After some quer u l ous remarks from a few of the principal Shareholders, and an expression of confidence on the part of Mr. J. Abel Smith, M.P., on the eventual prosperity of the un dertaking, a resolution was passed, appointing a com mittee to act in concert with the Directors, for the purpose of raising, on the security of the property of the Company, 2,500/., wherewith to pay the interest due to the Royal Exchange Insurance Company, and also to report on the future prospects of the Company. Another resolution, empowering the solicitor of the Company to prosecute all defaulters in respect of calls in arrear, having been passed, the meeting broke up.
