By the operation of the same principles, the Society is ambled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con • tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and should the parchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, twe thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure through this Society. 1' ) -41 THE BRITISH GAZETTEER, POLITICAL, COMMERCIAL, ECCLESIASTICAL, and HISTORICAL TRAVELLING ROAD-BOOK and COUNTY ATLAS.

THE NATURAL and UNNATURAL STYLE. If you wish to excel, study nature ; this is particularly appli cable in making ornamental hair, as unless the previous way of wear ing it is Imitated, so complete a transformation takes place, that as Byron says—" A mother would net know her son." ROSS and SONS having succeeded beyond all calculation in producing perfect Imita tions of nature, have given the name of the Invisible Ventilating Head of Hair to their productions, and are enabled to offer them to both Ladles and Gentlemen, from one guinea and a half upwards. They likewise present an infallible mode of measuring, viz. : —The round of the head ; from ear to ear across the rise of the head ; from forehead to pole ; the measure to be taken with a piece of tape, and a small lock of hair enclosed, which will be closely matched, both in colour and quality.

(Sittings in Error.—Present, Justices PATTEION, COLT MAN, MULE, CRESSWELI., ERLE, and WILLIAMS.) MOULTON AND WIFE U. CAMROUI. This was a case arising out of a special verdict. The action had been brought by the plaintiffs, the wife being the administratrix of Thomas Leigh, against the de fendant, as the secretary of the National Loan Fund Insurance Company, for money had and received. The verdict was found for the defendant in the Court below. Leigh bad agreed to purchase an annuity of the in surance company. There were two questions—whether a lunatic could make a contract under the circumstances disclosed by the record; and whether, assuming he could, this contract was void, under the statute governing an nuities, for want of enrolment. Mr. Needham was heard for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Gurney for the defendant. Mr. Justice PATTZION stated that the Court thought the judgment of the Court below, as to the enrolment, was right. The Act of Parliament which had said that deeds granting the annuity, if not enrolled, should be void, had not thrown the burden of enrolling upon either party; it seemed toi bel l the duty of the grantee, but whether it was so or not, it was not necessary to say. At all events, the grantee! might enrol, and, therefore, for him to say he would treat the transaction as void could not be allowed. It was partly his fault; therefore the action could not be sustained. As to the other point they would not now say anything. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Mr. Mason, of the Ben Jonson, public• house, was summoned before Alderman Hunter, for keeping his house open on Sunday morning, and refusing admittance to the police when demanded. The facts of the case were, that on Sunday morning, about one o'clock, one of the police-officers heard a great deal of talking, and money jingle on the counter. He informed the sergeant, who went back with him and de manded admittance, which was refused, and they went away, but by orders of the inspector, he was told to keep a watch on the house. He did so, and observed, be tween the hours of two and three o'clock in the morning, several persons go out. The defence set up was that one of Mr. Mason's nephews was going abroad, and they were the only parties in the house, a party having been given on the occasion by Mr. Mason, sen. Alderman HuriTER said he would throw overboard all thoughts about who was there, or who was not ; but he must not look over the fact of their refusing to allow the police admission when they demanded it, having fair reason to believe that a violation of the law was being committed, He should therefore fine Mr. Mason in the penalty of 205., and 3s. costs. The fine was at once paid. WORSHIP-STREET. Henry Hunt and John Hunton, two athletic labouring men, were placed at the bar before Mr. Ty rw hitt, charged with having caused the death of a fellow-labourer, named Edward Rumball, in a pugilistic encounter. It appeared from the evidence of James Hubby, a stoker, employed at the Imperial Gas-works in Hag gerstone, and several other witnesses, that the deceased and a number of other workmen were assembled on the preceding evening in the tap-room of the Anchor pub lic- house, adjoining the gas-factory, when an alterca tion arose between two of the party, which led to a general challenge on the part of Hunt to fight any one present. The deceased at once accepted the challenge, and after a short contest, in the course of which hard - blows were exchanged on both sides, they fell toge ther against the iron fender in front of the grate, but got up apparently uninjured, and re sumed their seats as if nothing unpleasant had oc• curred between them. Almost immediately afterwards the deceased commenced quarrelling with another man, whom he struck and challenged, and the prisoner Hun ton having interfered to restore order, the deceased sud denly started up and insisted upon fighting him also. ' The deceased then pulled off his frock, and was in the act of adjusting his belt, when Hunton struck him a slight blow on the side of the head, and he staggered back into his seat, but rose almost immediately, and falling forward on his face remained perfectly still, and never spoke afterwards. Medical assistance was pro.- ' cured as speedily as possible, and three sttrgeons were shortly in attendance, but they pronounced the unfor tunate man to be quite dead, and directed the removal of the body to Shoreditch workhouse. Mr. John Richard Morgan, a surgeon at Hackney, who had been called in upon the occasion, deposed that he found the deceased had sustained an extensive con tusion of the occiput, apparently produced by a heavy blow or fall, but he was unable to state the immediate cause of death until he had made a post mortem exa mination. Police-constables Caffrey and Acres,who apprehended the prisoners soon after the occurrence, stated that both of them attributed the disaster to the intemperate and violent conduct of the deceased himself, and severally declared that they had merely acted in self-defence. The prisoners now repeated the same statement in their defence, and were ordered to be remanded until Saturday next. SOUTHWARK. William Scallard and John Scallard, egg and butter merchants, late of No. 46, Bermondsey-street, were placed at the bar before Mr. Cottingham, for re-exami nation, charged with wilfully setting fire to their house. Mr. Parry attended on the part of the prosecution; and Mr. Clarkson on behalf of the prisoners. Mr. Parry said that the additional evidence he had to produce against the accused persons was of a very im portant nature, and would go far to establish the charge against them. — John Burtell was then sworn, and he stated that the landlord of the house to whom the prisoners were tenants engaged him to levy a distress on their goods for 71., which was due to him. The witness took an inven tory of the articles, which were sold for 21. The wit ness added, that the distress was levied on the morning the fire occurred. John bare stated that there were twenty-four per sons lodged in the prisoner's house ; that about three months before the late fire the inmates had been alarmed by a dense smoke in the middle of the night, which was found to proceed from the room below stairs occupied by the prisoners, one of whom, when asked the cause, said it arose from his kindling a bit of fire in the grate. On the occasion of the recent fire, when witness placed his family in safety, he returned to the house, and saw John Stallard, of whom he asked the reason he did not give the inmates the alarm when the fire broke out, and his reply was, that he had better pay up his arrears of rent. Margaret Mahony stated that she lodged in the house, and that two days previously to the fire she saw William Stallard removing a quantity of eggs from his shop to that of a relation in the same neighbourhood. The husband of the last witness also proved that he observed the same man removing firkins of butter on a truck. The witness added, that on the night previous to the fire he observed that the back door of the house, leading to the cellars where one of the fires took place, was fastened, which was a most unusual circumstance. Mr. Robert Wilson, clerk to the General Assurance Company, in King William-street, stated that, in the month of December, 1847, William Stallard effected a policy of insurance on his furniture and stock in trade in the office for 3201. Subsequently to the fire that oc curred on the 25th ult. the prisoner William Stallard called at the office and made a claim to the above amount. He was strictly questioned by the manager, and he gave such an unsatisfactory account of the value of the property alleged to be destroyed that no settle ment ot' the claim was effected then. Mr. COTTINGHAM—Has the claim been since granted? The witness replied in the negative. inquired ... Mr. Clarkson of witness whether the present prosecution was instituted by the insurance company, and he said that he believed not. Mr. COTTINGUIN said that be had given directions to Inspector Gates to apprehend the prisoners, on being made acquainted with the circumstances that transpired before the coroner, particularly when he found that the lives of twenty-four human beings might have been sacrificed had not the firo been discovered by the police in the first instance. The magistrate added that he should commit the prisoners for trial, but also should have them brought up again prior to the next Central Criminal Court sessions, and that any additional evidence that might arise in the interim could be inserted in the depositions. THAMES. Captain Richard Hamer, the master of the schooner Sea Bird, and Mr. Launcelet Wilson, late chief mate of the same vessel, who have been out on bail, again sur rendered before Mr. Yardley, to answer a charge of as saulting and wounding J o h n Hughes, a seaman, during a storm o ff the island of Guernsey on the nig ht of the g 11th of January, when the mate , after i nflicting . several wounds on Hughes with a cutlas s, drove h i m troUlthe forecastle on to the deelt, where he was ASOMiItEI. by [PRICE SD. the captain, and while that person was kicking and beating him, the mate inflicted another severe wound on his arm. Mr. Vessey, solicitor, conducted the prosecution Mr. Pelham the defence. It may be necessary to state, that another man we= severely wounded by the mate on the sam . night, be cause he did not come on deck readily to aitisr at the pumps, and has been under medical treatment since the arrival of the ship in this port. Fraser, a Thames police-constable, No. 73, put in a certificate from the surgeon of the Dreadnought Ho - pital ship, stating that Hughes was sal in danger, and not in a fit state to attend the court and give evidence. In answer to questions by the magistrate, Fraser sai( l , he did not expect that Hughes would be able to attend in less than a fortnight; but Mr. Ross, the surgeon who first attended him, could give more satisfactory in formation. Mr. Pelham put it to the magistrate, whether it would not be advisable to go on board the Dreadnought, and receive the deposition of the patient. There were several witnesses for the defence whose evidence was very important, and if the evidence of Hughes was taken, their testimony might be received and be of great import ance to the prisoners, besides expediting the matter. Mr. YARDLEY really did not see how that would expe dite the case as regarded the next sessions of the Central CI iminal Court; and he would say thus much, and no more,that the case was one for further inquiry before a jury. If the man was not well enough to attend the court and give his evidence previous to the next Old Bailey ses sions, it might reasonably be asked that his deposition should be taken in the hospital, and returned to the su perior court. - Mr. Pelham suggested that the evidence of a man in articulo mortis could be legally taken. Mr. YARDLEY—Is he in articulo mortis ? Mr. Ross— The into is in danger, but not in a dying state. Mr. YARDLEY said, if the man was in danger, that was a good reason why his deposition should be taken if it could be done without any injury to him. He desired the officer to let him know as early as possible on Thurs day, if the man was in real danger, and in a fit state to be questioned, and to make a statement. If he was in danger, but could give his deposition without detriment to himself, he (the magistrate) would go down the river on Thursday, and receive it. Mr. Pelham thanked the magistrate, and the pri soner's recognisances were then enlarged till Thursday (to-morrow). PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS. (From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of Common,.

Thomas Hugh Nu gent, son of the late Earl of Westmeath, by his second mar riage with Lady Elizabeth Moore, eldest daughter of Charles first Marquis of Drogheda. The deceased was born in Sep tember, 1807 1 and Traa heir p re3umpt i ve to the Marquis of ,Yreotuie4o4 NAVAL INI4LLIGENCE. GIBnALTAn, JAN. 3 1.—Sir C. Nepier's squadron, consisting of the 6t. - Vincent, Prince Regent, Powerful, Orestes, Plumper, ReynarJ, and Rill( man, anchored here in the night of the 27th. The Oarlequin came in next morning. and the Stromboli, with Mr. D. Hay, her Majesty's Charge d'Affaires at Tangier, came in in the afternoon. Thcy had an easterly gale off Cape St. Mary, when the Plumper lost a man overboard and parted company, but rejoined off the Straits. Prince Regent sprung main yard, got it down and fished it, when it was got up again; she split her topsails on the same occasion. St. Vi' cent also split some sails and had the lower boom washed away. The Reynard lost a gather boat and stove her bulwarks—it blew furiously tor 36 hours with a foam ing sea. On the 20th, in a strong breeze, as much as the Plum per and Reynard could carry topgsllantsaits on a wind, they tried rate for 16 miles, when Plumper beat, but not to a great extent, as R.ynerd wished to claim the supe riority. z --"t-c- Rifleman took out seven tons of ballast before leaving Lisbon, and appears better than hitherto; but is not a vessel fit to accompany a squadron; in strong breezes she is best, but being so low abaft, it would be impos sible for her to run in a sea. The Harlequin has not done much yet; the Plumper and Reynard are certainly equal, if not superior, to her. She took a Spanish brig in tow, the Mariner, which vessel had been run down by an English barque, from which she had lost her foremast and maintopmast. The Harlequin towed her into Cadiz, and came on here. . The Plumper, Reynard, and Orestes had a trial of sailing on a wind, carting all sail; rate, five to six miles per hour. After four hours, Plumper beat dead to wind ward of Re) iard nearly two miles; Orestes beat to windward of Reynard about one mile. The Sidon and Polyphemus have hoisted the white ensign, being under the orders of Sir C. Napier. On the 29th the Sidon took Mr. Hay, Change, to Tangier. The Admiral inspected the Prince Regent yesterday, and found her in a most efficient state. The Sultan steamer came in last night, from Constan tinople, which vessel takes the mail to-day. PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—The Superb, 80, Captain E. Purcell, was taken into the basin this morning, prepa ratory to her being docked as soon as the Collingwood can be removed. The Racer, 16, Lieutenant -Commander H. Bacon, sailed this evening, with supernumeraries, for Devouport. The Sparrow surveying ketch was undocked to-day. Wind, westerly; light airs and hazy weather. WOOLWICH, FEB. 6.—The Monkey steam-vessel, Master-Commander Bryant, the Charon, and the Zephyr steam- vessel, had their steam up to-day, and were in readiness to tow the Black Prince, 72, to moor ings in the river, previous to her being taken nitwit to Chatham, but the tide did not rise high enough to allow of her being taken out of the basin to-day. Fifty boiler-makers in the factory department have received the usual notices, that after the present week their services will not be required, in consequence of a reduction of the number of men now employed having been decided upon. The average number of convicts who have berm em ployed at the dockyard for some time past has been nearly 400, and it is contemplated to increase the number to 550 ; as the Warrior convict ship has ample accommo dation for them.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment if several conditions. its order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin if domestic wretchedaess, be raised, and Its true source in every instaice disclosed, in hew many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injitrions ; the gift, which whets used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particuler excesses, en the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other M which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, aid of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservatien of the health and of the physical capabilities if which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whetter acquired In early life er from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, lava risibly characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by hisposse,sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended.

APPALLING MURDERS. A letter has been received by a respectable merean tile firm in the City, detailing a horrible butchery already occasioned by Californian gold. A ship, call e d t h e Amelia, sailed from St. Francisco with gold, to purchase a cargo of silks in China. In crossing the Pacific Ocean, three miscreants of the crew, during a night watch, stole upon the mate, murdered and threw hitn overboard; after which they successively assassinated the master, supercargo, and an English passenger named Cooke. whose wife was on board. The murderers then divided the Californian gold amongst. themselves and the remain.. ing part of the crew, who it would seem were ignorant of the whole affair, till called upon to receive their share of the plunder. Soon afterwards the murderers got drunk and fell asleep, when the rest of the crew agreed to kill them and to restore the ship to her owners. Accordingly the ship's carpenter chopped off the heads of the three murderers with his axe, and their bodies were thrown into the ocean. The ship was then taken to Honohulac, one of the Sandwich Islands, and given up to the British Consul, being navigated thither en tirely by a couple of apprentice lads, who alone possessed sufficient skill for the purpose. port stated The r e port PRIN TERS ' P ENSION SOCIETY.'--'Yesterday a general me e ti ng o f t h e subscribers and in 1827, for nd co mmittee founded of management of th e a b ove institution, .. oir widows, was the relief of aged an d i n fi rm printers and t h eir held at the Lond on T avern, f or genera l business, Richard Taylor, Esq , the t reasurer , in the chair.

Baring, who was received with mingled cheers and hisses, then addressed those present. R e had learned not to be afraid of the people of Portsmouth, nor was he fond of office, but when it came unsought, he was right in consulting his own feelings. After twenty. eight years' ser vice no man was likely to doubt what course he would pursue.
