IMPORTANT AND SALUTARY IMPROVEMENTS have been introduced into the practice r.l Life Assurance by this Company, and the following are son of its distinguishing and imporiaart features, which have t, en introduced after mature 'deliberation. They will be most conveniently pointed out by referring to Policies, as divided into two great Classes —FAMILY PROVISION POLICIES, and MONEY TRANSACTION POLICIES. FAMILY PROVISION POLIC:7.S. —ln the well founded belief that Life A ssuranee businesa is profitable, per sons making provisions for their familit and contemplating a long duration of time between the date .:+ the Policy and the claim to arise under it, generally prefer -Assurances which may carry with them a right to participate in the profits to be re alised by the Company during the currency of their Policies. By the Deed of Constitution of this Cusa:pany, the participa ting Assured are entitled to the Whole of 'he Mutual Profits, es if they had been Assured in a purel:: Mutual Society ; sad they have, at the same time, the securit; not only of the funds of the Company, arising from the accureniated premiums, but also the proprietary funds and subscribed capital of the Com pany. To• the Shareholders are alloted oNLy those profits which are realised by the investment of tlieir own paid capital, and from the excess of the premiums derived from the nor,- participating Assurances. This mods of Division and Profits, so advantageous to the Assured of the Participating Class, is adopted only by this Company. HONEY TRANSACTION POL acquain tance with the records of the Courts of Lew and Equity, proves that considerable changes were required in the practice and rules of Life Offices, to render this class of Policies valid and unimpeachable documents of security, which no foreseen circumstances or future accide.lts could invalidate. This Company has endeavoured, and they think successfully, to render their Policies as inclefeasib: and negotiable secu rities as possible, consistently with a due regard to the s:lfety of the contracting parties; and to effect this object, the Company has introduced the following clause into their Deed of Settle ment : Clause 78.—" That every Policy issued by the Company shall be indefeasible and indisputable, and the fact of the issuing of the same shall be conclusive evidence of its validity, and it shall not be lawful for the Com ; tany . to delay payment of the money assured thereby, on the grr tire of any error, mis take, or omission, however important, made by or on the part of the person or persons effecting the same, and that on the contrary, the amount receivable under taae same shall be paid at the time stipulated by the Policy, to the person entitled thereto, as if no such error, mistake, or omission had been made or discovered, unless the Polity shall have been obtained by fraudulent Misrepresentation. In order to provide against the defeat of a Policy in the hands of a Creditor, by the Debtor, whose Life is Assured, leaving the country, and going beyond the prescribed limits, the Company grant what they term WHOLE WORLD PO 'LICIES, whereby, on condition of receiving an extra premium, varying in amount according to the circumstances of the case, but fixed and determined at the time of issuing the Policy, the Debtor, on whose Life an Assurai,ea has been effected. is entitled to go to, or reside in any part of the world, without in validating the Assurance; by which means the Creditor's claim is rendered certain. INTEREST IN POLICIES. —The otdinary rule is, that if a Creditor be paid his debt before the policy becomes a claim, he loses the benefit of his Policy, and the premiums paid become forfeited—this Cctopany repudiates all such un fair advantages. To enable a party to effect an Artirance at the LEAST PO!-SIBLE EXPENSE, and to entitle him to discontinue it at a less ,aerifiee than by ani other plan. a seven yells' Half premium system has been introduce(' and, upon comparing the following sea's with any other whit.!. has been devised for redwing' 1 ,,, 5e" t I ,2 Yrnents, it will be seen how much more ' economically a loan trateaeioti can be fortifieel by this hind of policy than by any other. The I-ha-premium system pos se,es a further advantage over temporary Assurances, or those for a Term of Years, from the Assures: having the option of eentinuing for Life the Policy which he way have procured for a mere temporary purpose. lIALF-rRENTIUM CREPT: rt.sr.n.

ROUGLISEDGE and SUMMERS have hitherto relied on the discernment of the public to discover and appreciate the superior quality of the lErated Water produced, by their manufactory, and they have scorned to have're c.)urso to any tricks. In the present day some persons consider it requisite to make use of puffs and quackery in order to extend the sale of their own productions by detracting from the merits of rival establishments. B. and S. have such strong grounds of reliance on the supe riority of their own soda-water and lemonade, founded on the recommendation of the most eminent of the faculty, on the results of the most searching chemical analyses, and the extensive and still increasing demand for them by the public, both at home and abroad, that they have hitherto treated the insinuations of quackery alluded to with the contempt they deserve. But if these indirect insinuations are still to be obtruded on the public, R. and S. feel themselves justified in offering those explanations that may enable the public to judge for themselves. If R. and S. have placed the name of Schweppe upon their bottles, it was never to mislead the public as to connexion with that firm, but for the purpose of announcing a legitimate fact, and always subordinate to their own. Without im puting undue credit to the name of Schweppe, they have simply stated that they came from the house of Schweppe and Co., —an undoubted fact, or doubtless it would have been denied. For five and twenty years, during the very period that the waters sold by Schweppe gave to that name all the celebrity it ever obtained, Mr. Summers was the engineer and manufacturer of the waters sold by that house in London, erson, Derby, having the gh connexion with the name or family of the late Mr. Schweppe, has been connected with any house in the trade. In the year 1834, the proprietor of the busi ness carried on under the name of Schweppe and Co. sold his interest to persons with whom R. and S. declined to remain : they preferred employing their in dustry and practical knowledge in establishing a business for their own mutual profit. Whether the waters since manufactured by the present firm of Schweppe and Co. retain the quality which acquired for that house all its celebrity, R. and S. decline to give an opinion ; but, in justice to themselves, they do, with the most perfect con fidence and good faith, say that—highly as some ma nufacturers seem to estimate the bottles which bear their name (expensive an item as bottles are), and diffi cult as it is to prevent retail tradesmen from returning wrong ones—there is no bottle bearing any other than their own, however celebrated, to which Roughsedge and Summers would wish to add the reputation to be derived from filling them with waters of their own manufactory. RouGnsEDGE and SUMMERS only desire such patronage as may be deserved from the /Erated Waters produced at their own manufactory, and sold under the labels of their own name. -37, Bridge -street, Bristol. AFFAIR OF HONOUR—BOTH PARTIES WOUNDED. Wednesday morning; at 5 o'clock, a hostile meeting (and which terminated by both parties being wounded, one severely) took place on Putney-heath, between Alexander Pollington, Esq., residing at Barossa Villa, St. John's-wood, Regent's-park, and Augustus James Tankerfield, Esq., residing in Upper Glou cester-place, Dorset-square, Regent's Park. At five minutes before five o'clock both parties, accompanied by their seconds, arrived on the ground, Mr. T. in a cabriolet, and Mr. P. in a chariot. The distance, sixteen paces, being measured, the hostile parties took up their posi ions and fired, Mr. Pollington re ceiving the contents of his antagonist's pistol in the left groin, and Mr. T. that of Mr. P. slightly in the pistol arm, above the elbow. A surgeon being in attendance, extracted the ball from out of the wound of Mr. Pollington, and he was re moved home in the chariot. The wound of Mr. T. being slight, it was bound up, and he, accompanied by'The his me frieetinds, i mme diately afterwards quitted the ground. ng arose from a political dispute, relative to a recent investigation of some elections befora the Committees of the House of commons.

The CHAIRMAN said the Conference and the country were in a singular position with the Government. They told the Government that the people were starving by thousands—they replied that they knew it. They asked them if they were prepared with a remedy—they answered that they were not. They asked them if they would allow the distressed people to exchange the products of their industry for food—they replied, " No." They asked them if they would take into consideration the means of remedying the distress—the answer was a re fusal. And yet the party who refused to provide a remedy, and were determined to leave the people to starve, shrunk when the term murder was applied to their conduct.—(Hear.) " You take my house when you do take The prop that doth sustain my houie ; You take my life when you do take The means whereby I live." He trusted that the Conference would now begin to call things by their right names, undeterred by the effect which the use of such names might produce on the House over the way.—(Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN then read a letter from Mr. Dee, of Stratford, suggesting measures for the adoption of the Conference. He also read the following letters : Warrington, July 19, 1842. I can assure you that we regard with deep interest the pro ceedings of the Conference, believing, as we do, that if its la bours are not successful, the most alarming results may be an ticipated during the coming winter. Hitherto Warrington lass happily been in a much better condition than many of the sur rounding districts, but still it has suffered much, and there is every reason to believe that the distress will considerably in crease. The poors'-rates are much higher, poverty abounds, one of our large manufacturers have failed, and the shopkeepers are suffering greatly. It is to be hoped that the Liberal Mem bers of the House of Commons will not allow the fear of being designated " factious " to deter them from taking every means in their power to force the Government to do justice to the people. Surely this is not a time for hesitation or half mea sures when multitudes are starving, tradesmen being ruined, arid when the peace of the country is in jeopardy ! The Con ference has done its work nobly. May the best success crown your efforts. Believe me to be, my dear Sir, very sincerely yours, PETER RYLANDS. George Thompson, Esq. Beaminster, July 20, 1842. Dear Sir,—ln my letter to you of the 16th instant, inserted in the Morning Chronicle of the 19th, I am made to say, that " if the manufacturing and the agricultural labourers will join them," &c. I wish it to be distinctly known that I am no physical-force man; if the people are united I believe we can obtain the aboli tion of all monopolies by constitutional means, and I consider it will he a great calamity to all classes (and especially to my class, who are entirely dependent on social order), if unfortu nately the lower orders should be driven by the monopolists to the last extremity. If you will cause this to be inserted in the Morning Chronicle I should feel much obliged. I am, Sir, yours faithfully, To P. A. Taylor, Esq. JOSEPH TITE. Beaminster, July 20, 11342. P.S. Since writing to you last we have had two fires in this neighbourhoodene at Abington, near Bridport, which de stroyed eleven heuses and a stable, and this morning a long range of buildings belonging to Miss Dunning, of this place, was destroyed. No doubt but both was the work of incen diaries, and we were sorry to see the indifference manifested by the lower class. All the property was insured in the Sun Fire Office. The following circular was read in corroboration of the statement : A Circular has been issued to its agents in the country by an Insurance Office, stating 1. That it had lately lost by agricultural insurances. 2. That it feared increased losses by such insurances. 3. Attributes this to incendiary fires and danger from the disaffection of the people. 4. It urges its agents to take as little business as possible on agricultural produce, and to be careful in inquiry into the cha racter of any one wishing to make agricultural insurances. Whether the person holds an office or any position unpopular with the people. Whether he be a harsh and cruel master, &c. TO P. H. HOWARD, ESQ., 31. P. FOR CARLISLE. Anti-Corn-law Association, Carlisle, July 18, 1842. At. a meeting of the members of this association, called by circular, this evening, Mr Sheffield in the chair, it was unani mously resolved : I. 'f That the thanks of this Association are due to the Anti- Corn-law Conference, for calling the attention of the Carlisle constituency of P. H. Howard, Esq., during the recent debate on Mr. Villiers's motion, for an inquiry with a view to the repeal of the present Corn-laws. 2. That the ;Members of this Association being firmly per suaded that the entire repeal of the Corn and Provision-lads can alone afford that adequate relief the depressed state of trade and the miseries of the labouring population imperiously demand, pledge themselves not to vote tor, or support, any candidate I who is not prepared to support an entire repeal of these unjust laws, and further pledge themselves not to relax in their endea vours until their just and righteous object be accomplished. 3. That this meeting, participating in the alarm generally felt in the manufacturing districts, for the peace of the country, should the present Parliament separate before providing effec tual means of relief, earnestly intreat our representatives, P. H. Howard, Esq., and William Marshall, Esq., not to desert their posts at this ipresent awful and alarming crisis, and to offer every possible opposision to the taxation of a prostrate people. ter the purposes of a bread-taxing aristocracy, by argument and other constitutional impediments, that the wheels of Go vernment may be arrested through the rejection or prevention of all votes of supply. 4. That a copy of these resolutions be sent to our represen tatives, and to the Conference in London. a. That Mr. J. Carrick be appointed a Deputy to the Con ference now sitting in London. t . Signed on behalf of the Association) THOMAS SHEFFIELD, Chairman. To P. A. Taylor, Esq. Anti-Corn-law Association, Carlisle, July 19, 1842. Dear Sir,—A general meeting of the members of this Asso ciation took place last evening in the Town-hall. Only one feeling pervaded the meeting, that was disgust at the conduct of an unfeeling Legislature, who denies to starving thousands the right of feeding themselves. Several resolutions were passed, of which we send you a copy. Mr. Carrick may be expected on Friday. Respectfully, J. D. CANN. P. A. Taylor, Esq. E. HARRIS. Finsbury, St. Luke's, July 21, 1842. TO P. A. TAYLOR, ESQ., CHAIRMAN OF THE ANTI-CORN-LAW CONFERENCE. The enclosed rate of wages, and price of previsions were sent me, in a letter dated the 20th of June last, by my brother-in law, Mr. Isaac Becher, of Stark county, Ohio. The calcula tions I have made, arising out of the facts it contains, will at once, I am sure, show the propriety of a free and unrestricted trade with the United States, and the absolute necessity of a repeal of our Corn and Provision-laws. The people of Ohio are anxiously desirous of exchanging their provisions for our hardware, cutlery, broadcloths, &c. &c. Mr. B. reports the prospect of an abundant harvest all over the Western States. I am, with great respect, yours, respectfully, ALEX. RENFREW SHAW.

He had had many opportunities of mixing with the people, and he could state, from his own knowledge, that employment was ra pidly diminishing, and the condition of the people continually becoming worse. If nothing were done to alleviate the distresses of the people, the most d ire consequences might be expected in the ensuing winter.l He could not r.eglect to raise his voice in behalf of his suffering Ownsmen. The following statement in reference to the relief of the Ivor, afforded some evidence of the increasing distress :—" Paid poor in 1839, 4701. 75. lod. , 105 families ; paid poor in 1840, 5541. 9s. I Id., 177 families; paid poor in 1841, 8831. 65., 264 families." Mr. MOORE asked of Mr. Crabtree if he could state whether there was any actual done by the shopkeepers ? Mr. CRABTREE said , should say that not decrease in the business that from his own experience, he half the business was done now which had been done in former ',years. His own letter from a merchant at New Orlearts: - -- " The reports as to the condition of the growing crops in the interior are riost favourable. The cotton plant is healthy, and we are led to look for early re ceipts, and a superior quality. The sugar cane is most promising ; and we wish we could add, that the :lite . . ration in the British Corn-laws had been of that nature to allow the industrious agricultural population of some of our back States to have placed a greater breadth of their now idle though rich lands under cultivation. Unfortunately, no such inducements arc held out by an uncertain and varyino•. duty. The new Corn-law of England must act disadvantageously on distant markets, and throw all the favourable oppor tunities for importing grain into the hands of the more contiguous speculators. Our farmers see themselves not only deprived of what is to all a familiar, and to many a native market, but are also debarred from drawing thence the supplies they are most in need of, but fur which an adverse policy will permit no exchange." Wheat coming down to New Orleans has been refused by the consignee, on account of charges. In answer to Mr. Wallace's motion, Sir R. Peel said that . . the effect of the inquiry would be to add agricultural to manufacturing distress. But had not Sir R. Peel heard of agricultural distress ? Did he not know, that in ad dition to the manufacturing distress, the country was near being. overwhelmed with agricultural distress ? (Mr. 'Wilson here read an extract from the Report Of Mr. Weale, the Assistant-Commissioner of Poor-laws, from which it appeared that there was more pauperism in the agricultural than in the manufacturing districts.) In the union of Aston. which was agricultural, the poor rates, according to Mr. Weale, were 7s. Bd. per head, whereas iu Birmingham they were only 3s. Bd. In the agricultural counties the proportion of paupers relieved last year was (to the whole population), in Bedford ll per cent. Sussex Perks ll Wilts Bucks l4 Essex l4 Cambridge ..... 11 Oxford Dorset l4 Suffolk Whereas during the same p• districts the proportion was, Chester 7 percent.) Cornwall ariod in the manufacturing in 'Stafford 6 per cent. Warwick Derby Lancashire Northumberland 7 'Yorkshire : East Riding 9 Northßidinb 7 Nottingham ... 7 I West Riding 8 In a debate on the Corn-laws in the year 1770, as given in Cavendish's " Unreported Debates," the Hon. Thomas Townshend said they were not ripe for it. Burke said—" In my opinion we are ripe for the question, but we are rotten. There is no such thing as the landed interest separate from the trading interest. What God has joined together, let no man separate. He who se parates the interests of the consumer from the interests of the grower, starves this country." In 1834 the Marquis of Chandos said he was afraid that the agricultural labourers would feel a temptation to com mit crime in the hope of intimidating the farmers, and forcing them to increase their wages. Now he (Mr. W.) was afraid that such a state of things was coming again. It was a state of things to be lamented ; but it was owing to the ignorance in which the aristocracy had kept the population for so many years.—(Hear, hear.) They saw, in different parts of the world, that where commerce and manufactures flourished, the aristocracy flourished, and vice versa. In Germany, in the town of Augsburg, that great city where the nobles met, and where everything was sumptuouk; yet, in that neighbourhood now, from the abselice of commerce, the palaces were ruined towers, and many of them were post-houses, or barracks for soldiers. It ap pared to him (Mr. Wilson) that if Sir R. Peel was anxious to relieve the agricultural distress, that the best means of doing so was by relieving the distress of the ma n u fac turers.—(Hear.) After all that they had heard at that Conference, he (Mr. Wilson) thought that this country would yet rise higher in a commercial point of view than it had ever yet attained. But there was only one course by which that could be accomplished, viz., that the fet ters of commerce should be set free. Mr. Granville had said that those who interfered with free trade inter fered with one man mutually supplying the wants of his neighbour. He (Mr. 'Wilson) thought that the un precedented success which had attended that cause gave them every reason to hope. Those who reflected on what was the state of the public mind in the metropolis two years ago must congratulate themselves on ' the change which had taken place. When they heard Sir Robert Peel saying that he would be obliged to do something contrary to the wishes of his friends ; and when they heard him com plain that his friends would not let him do more, there could be no cause for despondency. They found upon Mr. Villiers' motion men of the late Cabinet vot ing for it ; and they found the Tory .Baronets, the representatives of an agricultural county, voting for that motion, which had for its object the total repeal of the Corn-laws. When they found on all hands the necessity of doing something acknow ledged, he said, that instead of giving way to despon dency, they had every reason to congratulate themselves on the position of the question, and to have confidence as to their future prospects. He knew how much this question had been mooted in the late Cabinet by a Noble Lord, and the exertions he made amongst his colleagues to induce them to bring forward some measure on this sub ject.. Ile was exceedingly sorry to refer distastefully to any step taken by the Noble Lord, but he must say that he never was so much astonished, as at finding that Lord J. Russell had altered his position in the House of Com mons in voting for the motion for inquiry with a view to the total repeal of the Corn-laws, and in three days afterwards deserting his place in the House of Commons, to be heard of no more during the session. —(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Wilson) had not heard of anything which had grieved him personally more than this, from the respect he bore for the Noble Lord for his exertions in advancing the question of free trade. Ile must say that it pained him exceedingly, after the Noble Lord had given such symptoms of his conversion to total repeal, to run away from his place only three day afterwards, when Parliament had to remain four or five weeks. He (Mr. Wilson) meant not to have detained. them so long, but he did not wish it to go forth to the country that there was a feeling of antagonism to the agricultural classes in the League. They could not flourish unless all flourished, and the prosperity of the agricul turists depended on the prosperity of the commercial . and manufacturing districts of the country ; and he be lieved that this was the only feeling which actuated the manufacturing classes.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN said he would just make one obser vation before he called on the next speaker, upon a point which had fallen from Mr. Wilson, in alluding to an observation of Sir James Graham, that the repeal of the Corn-laws would only add agricul tural distress to manufacturing distress. He (the Chairman) was surprised that this had not been referred to in the House of Commons. Now, there was this great difference between a manufacturing artisan being thrown out of work, and land being thrown out of cultivation—in the former case the working man becomes at once a burden upon the country, the demand for one man's labour has ceased ; on the contrary, when an acre of arable land is thrown out of cultivation, the demand for the corn formerly grown upon it is not ebxe tinguished—that corn is still required—must still procured—and there is no mode o f obtaining it but by reat th it is s amount exfortin o g f e so o n r i n e ;prtoodisttactteofthlea b matter, nr amatter,tbhrienmfo e back d national labour in the one i lowest calculation, there is no decrease i o n f th e e m o a th n e d r fo i r t od y uctive labour of the is a positive extinction of t . ied the meeting. me m r r i r e a Itr! 11 3 r B o rokNmNaEnß. next He commence , addressed e r a e r s d by saying that he knew the proprietor of an iron manu factor y , who some years a g o said wou ld not take -, 0 acres for hi s twotliat .

Another iron master. who held a lease under a Noble Duke. offered to pay his landlord 4,0001,, or the rental of four years, to be released from the lease, but this was refused ; and the same gentleman declared that as soon as he had consumed his stock of ore and coal, he should shut up his works, as there was no prospect of things improving. With respect to the shopkeepers, in Bilston their condition was exceedingly deplorable. One friend of his, who was in an extensive way of busi ness a few days back, took, before dinner, over his counter, the sum of ninepence-halfpenny, and when he closed his shops at night—for he bad more than one—the whole of his takings during the day did not exceed in amount 65., while formerly be del de ~, 0.
