By the accounts which accompany this report, it will be perceived that, after providing for current expenses, bad debts, rebate of in terest, &c., the net profits for the half-year ending the 30th June last amounted to 16,0401. 7s 2d. Although this sum alone would not be sufficient for the purpose, the Directors have not hesitated to declare a dividend for the half year, at the rate Hof 61. per centum per annum, free from the deduction of income-tax, as the " Guarantee Fund" (after taking from it suf ficient to make up the deficiency) will still have to its credit the sum of 89,2181. Bs. I Id., being only 6121. ss. sd. less than on the 30th of December last. The Directors cannot close their report without expressing the deep regret they feel at the loss they have sustained by the recent decease of their much-esteemed friend and colleague, Joshua Schole field, Esq., M.P, This lamented event will render it necessary to call the Proprietsrs together again shortly, for the purpose of electing a successor. The Dividend will be payable on and after the 18th instant. The preceding Report having been read to the meeting by the Se cretary, a Dividend for the half-year, ending the 30th of June last, after the rate of 6/. per cent= per annum was declared by the Chairman. Resolved unanimously,—That the Report now read be received, and that it be printed for the use of the Shareholders. Resolved unanimously,—That the especial thanks of this meeting are due, and are hereby respectfully presented, to the Directors, for their valuable and efficient services. Resolved unanimously,—That the best thanks of the meeting' he given to Mr. Pollard, and those gentleman who act wider him for their excellent services. (Signed) JOHN M`TAGGART, Chairman. THE NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT The various buildings that honour the City Have often been chosen as themes for a ditty; Nor shall The New Houses of Parliament" go Without a few verses from MOSES—No, no ! We'll show the good reader, before we are done, How they bear on the houses of MOSES and SON. While the" Houses of Parliament" shortly will stand, As the principal Court in Britannia's land, The Houses of MOSES and SON are displayed, As the principal mart in Britannia's trade. To the good of the public they both are devoted, And both with the people are equally noted. Our Houses are open to grant a " RE-DRESS," Nay, all must a striking resemblance confess. Of course we are not at a loss to decide Which Houses de serve to be viewed as the pride. The good that the public derive ev'ry day Must certainly give to ova Houses the sway. With regard to the wonderful architect's skill, We've little or nothing to mention. But sti ll, We doubt when the "Parliament Houses" are done, If they rival the Houses of MOSES and SON.

George Webster, Esq. Archibald Cockburn, Esq, John Barnes, Esq. James Farquhar, Esq. J. W. Sutherland, Esq. Peter Laurie, Esq. W. M. Nurse, Esq. W. P. Craufurd, Esq. Major-General Robertson John Connell, Esq. Benjamin Boyd, Esq. William Morley, Esq. And upwards of 100 Proprietors. At a GENERAL MEETING of the PROPRIETORS, held at the Court-room of the Banking-house, No. 8, Moorgate-street, on Wed nesday, July 10, 1844, the following Report was read by the Secre tary : The Directors have great pleasure in laying before the Proprietors the Fifth Annual. Report of the affairs of the Company, for the year ending 30th June, 1844, from which it will be seen that the satisfac tory increase of the business of the Bank, which has formed the sub ject ofcongratulation since its establishment, still attends its opera tions ; and, notwithstanding the further depression in the value of money since the last report, the Directors are enabled to declare a dividend of 5 per cent. per annum (clear of income-tax) on the paid up capital of the Company. The balance sheet annexed to this report shows the results of the business of the Bank for the past year; and the Proprietors will ob serve, that after payment of all charges for the establishment, and interest to customers on their current and deposit accounts (amount ing to 18,6140, the unappropriated profit for the past year at 30th June last, was 32,1131. 17s, which, after payment of the dividend, and appropriating 5001. as usual in reduction of the preliminary expenses, enables the Directors to add 3,4681. I 6s. Id. to the reserved fund, which will thus be increased to 12,0001. invested in Govern ment Securities, leaving a surplus unappropriated profit of 7,0001. Os. I Id. The continued depression in the value of money is undoubtedly an Important consideration in regulating the rate ofinterest to be allowed I to customers on their current and deposit accounts, and the Directors have not failed to give this subject its due attention; but they are of opinion that the permanent interests of the 'Shareholders are best consulted by a strict adherence to those principles upon which this Bank was founded, and which has secured for it so much of the public confidence; with this conviction, the Directors do not contemplate making any alteration in the allowance of interest on current ac counts to their customers. The agency business of the Bank has been most materially in creased during the put year : and, in addition to other valuable banking connections formed both at home and abroad, the Directors have to state that six important Joint-stock Banks have appointed this Company their agents •in London since the last report ; while, with reference to the general business of the Bank, the increase on currency and deposit accou n t s h as b een more th an 60 per cent, re spectively, as compared with th e s t a t emen t p resented las year. The premises now oc c upi e d b y t h e B an k having become inadequate for the convenient transaction of its extended business, th e Direc tors have availed themselves of th e o pp or t un i ty of purchasing from the Great Western Railway Company their extensive freehold pre mises in Princes-street, which will secure a permanent position for the Bank in the most convenient situation in the City. The Direc tors intend to remove the business of the Bank to the new banking_ house at Christmas next. Since the commencement of the Bank in 1839, the Directors have had to regret the loss, by death, of two esteemed colleagues, Mr. Skaife and Mr. Meux ; and in pursuance of the powers vested in them by the deed of settlement, the Directors, in February last, elected William Morley, Esq., to supply one of these vacancies. The Proprietors will have observed with great satisfaction, that, by the Government measure for renewing the Bank of England Charter, which has now passed the House of Commons, the restriction which has hitherto prohibited Joint-stock Banks in London from accepting bills at a less date than six months, will be removed. This just con cession to sound principles will enable these banks to undertake, with full reciprocal advantage to their customers, the entire agency of country banks, while it gives them increased facility for the trans rction of an extensive and profitable description of banking business, from which they have have hitherto been excluded. In accordance with the provisions of the deed of settlement, the three following Directors—Sir Peter Laurie, Andrew Spottiswoode, Esq., and George Webster, Esq.—go out of office ; but being eligible, the Court unanimously recommend them for re-election.

EXAMPLES. COFFEES. The article of cofibethas for some years past attracted the atten. tion both of the late and present Governments, their object being to benefit the public by introducing it at a cheaper rate. Mr. Labouchere, the President of the Board of Trade in the late Government, devoted considerable time in endeavouring to alter the anomalous laws which existed in regard to coffee, but strong opposing interests at that period prevented him from carrying his good intentions into effect. Sir Robert Peel, with great determination, notwithstanding the powerful interests arrayed against him, at once reduced (in his celebrated Tariff) the duty on foreign coffees from Is. 3d. to Bd. per lb., and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in his financial state ment during the present session, announced a further reduction to 6d. per lb., saying—" It is most important to extend the use of a beverage which is a great luxu r y to all cla sses, and which, in ad. ditiou, is found to supersede other beverages detrimental to health. As the honour of being the first to afford the public the full be nefit of these philanthropic measures has fallen upon ourselves, we confidently call upon her Majesty' s Mini sters, Noblemen, States men, and all who desire to see the liberal intentions of Government carried out, and who wish to enjoy, in its greatest purity, so nutri tious a beverage as coffee, to confer on us their valuable support.

LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY 1.. - ENlNG.—Congress closed its sittings on the 17th, and as it would appear not in the most orderly manner. A correspondent of the New York Courier and Enquirer, says— " I shall not attempt to detail the rowdyism of the last two days of this session, as enacted in the house ; the conduct of the majority was factious and disorganising in the extreme, and tending to the destruction of all respect for the legislative body, while that of particular prominent in dividuals was boisterously insolent and disgustingly vulgar, and cannot be paralleled except in the purlieus of the most besotted portions of your city. The like of it may have been before witnessed at a subterraneous carousal, but never _in a legiative assembly. "The Senate confirmed the nomination of Mr. Cushing as Commissioner to China, and of Dr. Clemsen, son-in-law of John C. Calhoun, as Chargé to Belgium. The executive withdrew the name of Mr. Walworth for the vacancy occa sioned by the death of Judge Thompson, and substituted that of J. C. spencer." No bias of any consequence were passed at the closing of the congressional sitting. The Finance Committee of the Senate had been discharged from the further consideration of the subjects referred to it, and the chairman stated, with re ference to the omission of any provision for the debt due on the Ist of January next, as proposed by the Secretary of the Treasury, that the debt last year was 25,385,000 dollars. It was now 2,295,000 dollars less. _ On the Ist of January next, the debt would be reduced to fifteen and one-third millions ; according to every reasonable probability, there would be no diminution in the revenue from any cause. Some stir had been created by the arrival of a special mes senger with dispatches for General Almonte, the resident Mexican Minister in America. Several of the New York papers proclaimed that Mexico was decidedly favourable to the annexation, and would gladly join the Union at any price. However, the very contrary of this turns out to be the fact. The New York Commercial Advertiser has it that Santa Anna would not listen to any overture for the acquisition of Texas by the United States, but repeated his former declara tion that the annexation would be regarded by Mexico as a declaration of war. Such, moreover, was the tone of the Mexican papers without exception. The officers of the Poinsett reported at Mobile that 14,000 troops had assembled and were quartered at Vera Cruz, and that large quantities of military stores were arriving there. An English brig with ammunition, &c., had just arrived from Tobasco. The Mexican authorities were loud in their de nunciations of vengeance against the United States. A Spanish journal, published in New York, gives the text of a dispatch from Senor Bocanegra, the Mexican Foreign Minister, to General Almonte, which reached the latter gen tleman on Thursday, by wa" of Havannah. This dispatch was forwarded after the arrival of Mr. G. L. Thompson at the eh, of Mexico, on his mission from the Goverpwent of the United States; and was forwarded by way of lidkannah, expressly to meet and contradict any rumours that might be set afloat in this country, of willingness on the part of Mexico to assent to the annexation of Texas. Senor Bocanegra informs General Almonte, in the most emphatic terms, that, Mexico will never assent to the annex ation—that the Government and the nation are immovably determined to resist the projett and reject all proposals for its consummation, whether accompanied or not by offers of compensation. And General Almonte is authorised and in structed to contradict, in the most formal manner, any asser tion or intimation of a different character. The Acadia steamer had arrived out in due course.

BIRMINGHAM ELECTION. THURSDAY EVENING.—As the nomination approaches the interest hourly increases, and it is needless to say the utmost anxiety prevails to know precisely how the canvass for the various candidates proceeds. The following notices from the gentlemen in the interest of Mr. Scholefield and Mr. Sturge have appeared : "The canvass of Mr. Scholefleld's Committee 'exhibits a decided majority for that gentleman over his opponents' numbers united. The returns, however, are not yet corn - - pleted. Mr. Spooner's canvassers are earnestly requesting electors who decline to vote for the Tory to promise to vote for Starve. how the honest portion of Mr. Sturges friends can continue blind under such circumstances is inexplicable. Stnrge's friends - have issued a placard, stating that Mr. Scholefield has retired, and they are uniting with Spooner'a party in pursuing the most weak and pitiful inventions to mislead and decoy the less intelligent of Mr. Scholefield'A supporters. Feargus O'Connor, too, has come to their aid in a flaming printed address, villifying Mr. Scholefield in characteristic terms. O'Connor now recommends - Joseph . Sturge quite as furiously as he not long since abused and-de .: nounced bins in the columns of the Northern Star. Of Course. Mr. Spooner's friends are sanguine as to the issue, under these circumstances, but if Mr. Scholefield's supporters per severe in their efforts, and the electors are faithful to their promises, Birsiiingham will not be handed over to the Tories by the Chartists." ✓ Mr. Sturge's friends say—" Our Committee has just issued this bill :—‘ Mr. Sturge's Committee congratulate the Radical electors on the fact, that the canvass reports show a decirlcci majority of votes promised for Mr. Sturge in preference to Mr. Scholefield. The remarks in the canvass books opposite the names of those who are entered as doubtful are also de cidedly favourable to Mr. Sturge. " Mr. Sturge explicitly declared that he would give every .tlectcit.an opportunity of recording his vote, and that ought to be sufficient to convince the most sceptical that Mr. Sturge will poll to the last moment the poll is open. This is his ir revocable determination.' " The nomination takes place to-morrow morning, in the Town-hall. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Last night one of the chief attractions was the appearance of Signor Moriani in a new part, viz., that of Percy in Anna Bolena. So great was the success of the new tenor in Lucia. that there was a natural curiosity to see how he would shine in this second character, which has been rendered illustrious by Rubini and Ivanhoff. Hla reading of the part is neces sarily, from the style of his singing, entirely different front that to which we have been accustomed. There seemed to be something like a want of firmness in his higher notes. The duet with Grisi, " Per Meth," he sang charmingly. He infused into it that true pathos, and that elegant ex pression, which is in him so peculiar, and the piece was enthusiastically encored. The intensity of feeling with which he introduced the beautiful trio in the second act. was one of the most effective touches of the evening. Grisi last night literally surpassed her own magnificence. The rush of her voice into the finale of the first act was one of those things that create quite a thrill in the hearer. Anna Bolena used to be one of the most hacknied of Doni zetti's operas, but it has been laid on the shelf for three years, and its revival is welcome, not so much for its own merits, as for the admirable performance of Grisi. Henry VIII. could not have a more fitting representative than Lablache, who, every inch of him, looks the bluff monarch ; and most admirably does his voice tell, and excellently does he support the trio, where the bass Voice has an accompani ment for the other two, that is like that of a stringed instru ment. The little character of Smeaton was played by Favanti, and Giovanna was sustained by a debutante llama Giuseppina Rosetta, who, without an extraordinary voice, is a pleasing and tasteful singer —superior to those who have generally filled the character in England. The principal artists were called for with acclamations at the end of each act. The opera was followed by a fantasia on the horn, played by Puzzi, because it was his benefit; and this was followed by a divertissement, in which Fanny Elssler daneed the Saragossa. The second act of Guglielmo Tell, the best act in the opera, distinguished by the duet between it_.wold and Matilda, the splendid trio, and a host of magnificent choral effects, was another musical attraction of the evening, the principal characters being sustained by Persiani, Mario. Fornasari, and F. Lablache. MEETING OF MIDDLESEX MA- GISTRATES. A meeting of justices of the county of Middlesex was held yesterday, at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell-green, Mr. Sergeant Adams in the chair. Mr. WILKs drew attention to the Bill before Parliament to enable justices to establish houses of refuge for juvenile of fenders. It was not likely to pass this session, but whenever the time came for considering it he should oppose it. The Court adopted two resolutions on the clauses of the Metropolitan Buildings Bill, condemnatory of the power given therein to the Secretary of State for the Home De partment, enabling him to nullify the appointment of sur veyors, and compelling the payment of 200/. out of the county rate towards the charge of two official referees and a registrar. Mr. ROTCII said.that neither of these resolutions met his approbation. The Government measure was forced upon them by the manner in which the magistrates had for merly exercised their power of election. One of the county surveyors appointed by the magistrates was Mr. Cha r l es Mathews, the actor—(A laugh)—who openly said that he kept the situation for his aged mother. Another of their surveyors resided in the north of England, and was a great unknown as far as his district was concerned. A third was incapable from age and infirmity. It was a matter of as tonishment that the Government had not taken up tise sub. ject before.—(Hear.) On the motion of Sir B. HALL, a county rate of Id in the pound was agreed to. LOAN.

This medicine has been proved in many thousand cases to be far more efficacious than any febrifuge hitherto known, while its use entails none of the unpleasant consequences too frequently pro duced by quinine and other preparations of bark. It is purely vegetable ; its operation is Uniform—its effects imme diate ; and it may be safely administered to infants at the breast. The action of the medicine is slightly narcotic and highly sudorific; pains in the head, back, and limbs are immediately relieved, sad fever is eradicated in from six to twenty-four hours. It is exhibited in the form of a tincture, a phial containing two doses of three drachms each being sufficient in any case. It has been extensively used in the East and West Indies, France, Germany and Italy, with unqualified success, in cases of the most malignant nature, and with equal efficacy in fevers of every type. As it may be safely taken under any circumstances, with a cer tainty of immediate relief, Travellers who, either on business or plea sure, visit the South of France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, and the neighbouring countries, and, above all, residents in the East and West Indies, the Mediterranean, African, and South American colonies, will do well to avail themselves of a remedy, the perfect safety and extraordinary efficacy of which have been proved in many thousand instances, and in every climate. By providing themselves with a supply of this medicine, owners or masters of vessels trading to the coast of Africa, the southern States of America, and other parts where fever is prevalent, will prevent its ravages from carrying off or disabling their crews, at a cost which is utterly insignificant when compared with the value of the lives and time lost, and the expense incurred for hired labour, necessarily employed in foreign ports whenever the ship's company is unequal to the duty. +► Testimonials of the most convincing nature from Sir Andrew Hal liday, Deputy Inspector General of Army Hospitals (in his official report, dated British Guiana, Oct, 5, 1834, and in his letter to the Right Ilonourablo Lord Viscount Howick, Secretary at War, on Sick ness and Mortality in the West Indies, March 8, 1839), and nu merous other distinguished members of the profession, British, Co lonial, and Continental, are in the possession of Dr. Warburg.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE; TATTERSALL T S.-YESTERDAY. The attractions at Newmarket were not sufficient to induce a large proportion of the usual frequenters of the room to stay away, and many who had gone there has tened back, in the forlorn hope of meeting those whose absence on Monday had excited so much regret. No thing occurred, however, to lessen the feeling of dis satisfaction the winding up of the Running Rein affair had produced. In fact, " the absentees " were as numerous as ever, and the complaints were " loud and deep" at the want of principle displayed by persons in whom the fullest confidence had been placed. A sort of vague impression still remains, that some of " the lost sheep" may be found at Liverpool, and a tacit understanding existed against a public announcement of defaulters till after that opportunity of "coming to the post" had gone by. All delicacy will then cease, and the names of the unprincipled will then be made public without scruple. The dissatisfaction which prevailed had an obvious influence'on the betting, and the business done was not only limited, but confined to a very narrow circle.

This Office is provided with very accurately constructed tables, by which it can assure unsound lives on equitable terms. Similar tables enable the Society to grant increased annuities on unsound lives, the amount varying with the particular disease. Members of consumptive families assured at equitable rates. Healthy lives are assured on lower terms than at most ether offices. The first Life Assutance Society commenced business in 1705, and the principles of life contingencies, understood at that time to a very limited extent only, have repeatedly undergone important changes and improvements; but till the establishment of this So. ciety in 1841 no attempt had ever been made to assure the lives of persons who suffer from disease. The ecience of statistics has only within a recent period been successfully applied to the duration and mortality of disease, and hence tables on the probability of these results could not have been formed ; and it would evidently have been unsafe and hazardous for any society to have undertaken the risk of assuring the lives of persons afflicted with any particular malady. The statistical in formation, however, now collected, and in possession of this office, is of so great an extent as fully to warrant the extension of life assurance to such cases, and, in fact, to place the application of life assurance on diseased lives on a mere secure basis than even that on healthy lives. It is hoped that while kept clearly in view that this Society, in common with other offices, will assure the lives of healthy persons, it is as yet the only one established to assure the lives of persons labouring under disease ; and to this latter feature particular atten tion is directed. In the first place, because it opens a larger field for business than all other offices can have unitedly; and in the Second place, because that branch of assurance must, from its own nature, be less hazardous, and its principles rest on a more permanent foundation. These are two highly important facts, and we shall enter into an explanation of each ; and first, as to the prevalence of disease. The period of life most important to an assurance office is that be tween 15-60 years of age, and in the fallowing remarks we refer exclusively to this period of life. It will be found that the deaths in the metropolis for the two years preceding 1842 were, from all causes, 30,518 ; and from consumption alone, 10,688 ; showing that mere than one-third of the total deaths in that period of life takes place from the preva lence of a single disease ; and If the same inquiry were instituted with respect to other disease?, such as asthma, dropsy, diseases of the head, heart, Erc., it would be found that more than one-half of the whole population would, on medical examination, be refused admission into an assurance office. If the inquiry be carried to the principal towns in England, like facts are elicited—ln Bir mingham, Liverpool and Manchester, the deaths from all causes, per annum, are about 5,023, while those from consumption are 1,988, forming considerably more than one-third of the whole. The same thing will be found to hold good in the large towns In Scot land, in six of which the deaths in a given period, from all causes, amounted to 23,078, those from consumption alone to 6,359, and from six important diseases, 9,754; in the latter case forming more than 42 per cent. of the deaths from all causes. On reference to the returns from the city of Glasgow for 1836-1840 It will be found that the deaths in that period, from all causes, were 14,107, from consumption 4,087, and a list of five diseases, 6,423, being more than 45 per cent. of the deaths from all causes. The d;seases here alluded to arc such as exist in general in a chronic form, frequently for many years prior to death, but which, on a strict medical examination, would effectually exclude the persons so affected from the benefits of life assurance ; and since it thus appears that a majority of the population is included in this class, the value and importance of the new feature of this society cannot fail to be justly appreciated. The second point to be explained is the fact that there is much less risk in assuring diseased lives. This is a feature of paramount and vital importance to the interests of this society, and deserves to be carefully considered. The real risk incurred in all assurance transactions consists in the chance to which an office is liable of experiencing a different degree of mortality from that expected by the tabjes on which its caculations are founded. This difference is termed the fluctuation of mortality, and will be found to be much less among diseased lives than over the general population, and among selected lives. The deaths from consumption in the metropolis per annum are sufficiently near the annual number which takes place in Glasgow, from all causes, to admit of a comp;rison, and by reducing the matter to figures it is found that while the fluctuation per annum in the latter case is as high as 45 per cent., in the former it is only 9 per cent., or, in other words, the fluctuation of mortality in consumption was only one-fifth of the other; and in Manchester, Liverpool, and Birmingham, even with the disadvantage of smaller numbers, the fluctuation does not exceed 3 per cent., showing a remarkable uniformity in the law which determines the mortality of this disease, and that it is more positive and absolute in its results than that which regulates the general population. Consumption has here been selected, not because it was consi dered more favourable in its results, but simply on account of the larger numbers affording a more satisfactory proof of the question under consideration; but the same test has been applied to a great number of other diseases, and like results obtained. Among nine diseases in the metropolis, including asthma, dropsy, rheumatism, disease of the liver, of the heart, of the nervous system, &c., the fluctuation was only 7i per cent., and in five diseases in a different district the fluctuation was about 7 per cent., while among eleven in another locality, and even with small numbers, the fluctuation did not exceed 6.2 per cent.; and taking the principal towns in England, including Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds, Sheffield, &c., the fluctuation over eleven of the more important diseases was 6 , 1 per cent. The remarkable uniformity in these results cannot fail to pro. duce a conviction of the positive character of the law of mortality in disease; indeed, there seers to be nothing within the whole range of the doctrine of probabilities so well defined as the mor tality of diseased lives. The mortality of the general population has frequently been referred to by writers as an example of the cer tainty of common e►ents, but the preceding remarks must show with how much greater certainty the mortality of diseased lives can be depended on. It is perhaps right to state, that, in applying the test of fluctuation to disease, it has not been confined to one place or class of lives, but has been extended to the principal towns in England and Scotland, as well as t• many rural districts in Eng land, and included the experience ea one or two large societies of select lives. This has afforded an opportunity of judging of the effects of locality and its sanatory condition on the duraticn of life, and a remarkable fact has thus been developed, ♦iz., that the value of life generally is much greater in the coun try districts than in large cities; but that of those persons who suffer from disease the value of life is nearly the same. As an example of this—the expectation at the age of 30 in the country districts is 36.7 years; in cities (viz., Glasgow) 27.6 years—diffe. rence 33 per cent. nearly; but take the case of persons of that age in whom the consumptive tendency is developed, and who will ultimately die of consumption, and their expectation of life in the counties of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk, will be found to be 14'5, in cities (Glasgow) 14'4, and in the metropolis, Manchester, Bir mingham, 13'9 ; difference 'Ol7 per cent. (or 1.57 per cent.) It therefore appears that while the difference between country and town life in the former case is about 33 per cent., that in the latter instance (consumption) the difference is almost nothing, and the results nearly uniform. The same thing holds good with some other diseases, which have been investigated in this manner. This fact, although not generally understood, is only what might have been expected by a careful consideration of the conclusion formerly arrived at—that the fluctuation of the law of mortality in disease is confined within a very narrow limit, and consequently little in. financed by external circumstances. It hence appears that the fluctuation in the mortality of diseased lives is much less than among select lives and the population gene rally, and therefore the risk of assuring diseased lives must also be less. To apply this conelusion to the affairs of an assurance eftice, it may be stated, that supposing the number of lives in a society, taking only select lives, was such that the table of mortality would indicate 100 deaths per annum, it would be necessary to have always sufficient funds at immediate command to meet 145 deaths; on the ether hand, an office assuring only diseased lives need not provide for more than 109 deaths per annum; that is to say, the risk of assuring diseased lives is to that of average lives as 9 to 45, or only one.fifth. This fact is highly important to the interests of this Society, and establishes beyond doubt the safety and correctness of the principles on which it is founded. For further information, reference is made to the prospectuses and other published decumnts of the Society, which may be ob. tamed ou applioation at the Society's offices. P. G. P. ItTEISON, Actuary.
