The WITHDRAWAL TABLE of the Society affords to the As sured the greatest possible present and prospective advantages that can be conferred by Life Assurance. On this Tab!e the Assured is entitled, at any time, to receive at interest an immediate advance, to the extent of one-half the amount of the pAid annual Premiums, without security, personal liability, or deposit of the Policy, but by simple endorsement thereon ; or the half Premium may be with held during the whole continuance of the Policy. Also, in the event of the Assured at any time not requiring to continue the Policy, on its surrender one-half of the annual payments will bo returned by the Society. Lapsed Policies may be renewed without fine, on proof of koalth and payment of arrears of Premium without interest. Notions of Assignment of Policies registered and acknowledged, so as to make them available as securities in the hands of third parties. No Entrance Fees or any other charge beyond the Policy Stamp. The present nnual income of the Society from Premiums is 63,0001.; t , ,e amount covered by the Policies of the Society is 1,781,5801.; and the reserved profit, applicable to future bonus to the Assured, amounts to 82,454/. 55. 6d. At the last annual inves tigation, reported in May, 1850, the bonuses declared to the As sured were, the option of a return of 15 per cont. on their Premiums in cash, or a reversionary addition to the original sam assured by each Policy varying from 20 to 65 per cent.

(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office era—Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied. 'Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against less for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this question, anti will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to tin e, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or flay per cent. of the mitt excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause. Prospectuses. and every information may be obtained, on applica tion at the Office, or to any of its Agents. f National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society. * Equitable Fire f* Both Offices. ATIIOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURT LI ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in England, and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 260/.—making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when It is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1549, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Pelicles, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 61. Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s. was receiv:td by the Company in the shape of premiums. Since the commencement of the Company to the let of June last, effected to the extent of 110,97 21 . Its 6 d. , pro premiums 3,7321. Ifs. 6d. of these 54 lapsed , d as u s c u h r i a g n , , e is annual NN' were amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,9911. 15s. I Id. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,1831. I Is. 10d. only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished fur his integrity and ability In financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal Arclibish ,, P of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the. last three months effected a con• siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prospects. BREACH OF PROMISE. Itow oft do we hear of a fickle young blade, Disappointing the hopes of his confident maid ; How many soft letters addressed to fair ribs, Have proved In the issue a ti , sue of fibs ; Ilow many kind sweethearts have shown by their deeds, That, though sweet in their words, they were sore bitter weeds. And how many a tear has been shed as a token That promise, like ye-crust, was made to be broken! How many have said, when untying the band, " He has taken my heart, but IF won't take my hand !" But justice steps in with a menacing carriage, To visit the breaches of promise of marriage. But what have those breaches of promhe to do With the tailoring warehouse of MOSES ? say you. Stay, stay zealous reader, and don't be afraid, For I'm conVng to breaches of promise In trade. When the public was courted by MOSES and SON, They offered their suit as they ought to have done : The public, they said, was their boast and their pride, And ever since then they've been closely allied. They promised, as suitors, in all things to suit, And naught has created the slightest dispute ; Their address and dresses minutely agree, And honour, strict honour, at all times we see. The public perceiving how matters were planned, have taken E. MOSES and SON - by the hand ; And now are their mutual interests wed, And MOSES and SOS have fulfilled all they've said. May the union subsist as it ever has done; May the public estee more completely be won By - a happy connexio m n of MOSES and SON. A handsome Almanac, for the year 1851, can be had gratis, on application. Notice.—Tho Fur and Shawl Departments are now replete with ivory novelty of the season.

ADMISSION TICKETS TO THE INTERNATIONAL Ex iiiiirriew.—Some surprise and dissatisfaction have been ex cited by the intimation that the local commissioners will be called upon to pay on every occasion for access to the Ex hibition. Considering the immense expenditure of time and trouble by many of the local commissioners in securing the success of the Exhibition, we do think th at t h e very l e ast acknowledgment of their services that could, in common gratitude, be made, would be free tickets of a cce s s on all oc casions. Besides remonstrances t o t his effect, we have had suggestions from correspondents that it would be a graceful act of politeness to present asTon ticket to each of the 248 designers of plans for the Building.—Builder. lEATH OF DR. KENNEDY. (From the Invernesg Courier.) This highly-gifted and deeply-lamented man died at Fort William on Wednesday, the 12th inst., at four o'clock in the morning. He was in the prime of life, and until a few days ago he was in the et:] iyment of the highest health. But having caught tee !ins foster telille in the discharge of his professional duty, he sunk r s pittly under it, nitwit hstendieg the closest eve- etel at tention bestowed on him by Drs. Cameron and Crichton, who were aided by Dr Ilurst. His death has net. only mussed a blank in the district a h ieh we do not expect to 450 filled up, but it has create I a ilseo an-1 solemn ins nrossio,a ate' called forth grief an f sorrow such as see never hi-for e w i tnesse d i n this quarter. On Tuesdsy morning - , alie n , fos the first time, the belief tiett Pr. Kennedy was in i mm i nent d anger generally spread, soups of deeply-anxious persons might he seen every where throughout the town—his case forming the all-en grossing subj. , ct of discussion. As the day advanced the anxiety increased. When nieht came on, and his medical attendants pronounced his Caa3 hopeless, scores of people crowded the space before his house " hoping against hope," and watching with breathless eagerness for every fresh report concerning him. Oil men, .women, and children—bareheaded and barefooted children— stood throughout the cold February night bef To his door; and many parties who had travelled twelve or fourteen miles from the surrounding country were seen hurrying anxiously forward to the centre of such painful and absorbing interest. When at length the aad an nouncement was made—that the dreaded separation had taken place—men wept and wailed as if bereaved of their nearest and their dearest. Tho "poetess of the affections," notwithstanding she he rse lf h a d d run k so deeply and frequently of the cup of sorrow, says— " Talk not of grief, till thou hest seen • The tears of warlike men." Grief thus attested, is felt and expressed for Dr. Ken nedy. We have seen strong men and old men shedding tears at the mention of his name. Few can pronounce it without visible emotion; while a subdued and awe struck air pervades the district 'generally. Nor will those who knew the very high worth of the departed wonder at the depth or intensity of the sorrow felt for him. All who were acquainted with bins will join in the words of Horace regarding Quintilius— " Quis desiderio sit pudor, ant modus Tam earl eapitis?" and we may well add— " Cui Pudor, et Justitiae sorer Incorrupta Fides, nudaque Veritas Quando ullum inveniet parem? Multis ille bonis flebilis occidit." Dr. Kennedy's character presented a union of various excellencies rarely ever combined in one individual—of qualities well fitted to command both esteem and aff,c don, and which qualified him in a singular manner for the varied and arduous duties of his profession in an ex tensive, a rugged, and a poor Highland district. Great strength, decision, and energy of purpose were seen joined to remarkable mildness, quietness, and patience of man ner. His distinguishing characteristic, however, might be said to be true manliness. He was " every inch a man"—firm, upright, truthful, independent, and singu larly generous—utterly abhorrent of all that was selfish or interested. At the same time, he possessed great depth and warmth of affection, which made him a ten der as well as a true friend. His sympathy with suf fering was very strong, and his benevolence untiring. This, we may remark, was vividly expressed in his countenance, which bore the look of bland benignity, the very smile of which frequently acted as a cordial to the. patient on his sick bed. His professional skill was deservedly held in tho highest estimation, and his sound judgment rendered his advice always valuable. So widely was his fame known, that patients from distant counties frequently came to consult him. We must not omit his kindliness, his beneficence to the poor. Inti mately acquainted with their language and their habits, he could enter fully into their circumstances; possessed of an uncommonly strong ,athletic frame, he could en dere an almost incredible amount of toil and hardship; and, whether it was at morn or at midnight that he was called, he cheerfully went forth to relieve their suffer ings after travelling long and dreary distances without prospect of fee or reward. Ho was here in an especial manner " the strength of the needy and the dis tressed." We may mention that it is proposed to raise a public monument to him at Fort William—a tribute due to his many excellencies. But whether this be done or not, sure we are that his memory will long live embalmed in many a heart, and we doubt not that " his record is on high." Dr. Kennedy was the third son of the late Mr. Angus Kennedy, Lionachan, where the family have lived for several generations. Ho was born in 1810, and was thus in the 41st year of his ago. After completing his medi cal studies at Glasgow University, he commenced prac tice in Fort William, which he never left. He married Miss Cameron, Camisky, who lives to Lament his less Ile was medical cffieer to the parochial boards both of Kilmallie and Kilmonivaig, and was an eider in the Established Church. His remains were interred on Saturday is the churchyard of the latter, his native parish, and were followed by an immense concourse of mourners. As the procession passed through Fort William every shop was closed, and groups of females in deep distress were seen collected in the village, and at several places on the roadside. The funeral was more numerously attended than any we have ever witnessed in this part of the country—the computation varied from 1,200 to 1.500. The body was carried shoulder•high the whole distance of ten miles. We have heard that al ready 150/. have been subscribed for a monument to him. We cannot conclude this notice without expressing a sincere wish that the solemn and even appalling spec tacle here presented to us may teach true wisdom mite many. We have seen a " strong man in his strength" suddenly cut off—a man in the full flush of manhood and usefulness and fame struck down by the "arrow that tlieth in darkness," and above all, a man who was so often the means, under the hand of God, of warding off death from others, thus himself so utterly powerless in the grasp of death. We trust that this impressive lesson may teach many the weakness of man at his best estate, and lead them to seek strength and life in Him who, by his marvellous death, purchased life eternal for us. (From the Inverness Advertiser.) DEATH OF W. KENNEDY, ESQ., M.D., FORT WIL LILSI.—It is with feelings of the deepest sorrow that we have to announce the demise, of typhus fever, of Dr. Kennedy, which took place at his house here on Wednesday morning, the 12th current. This sad event has cast a gloom over the whole district. Never did we see so much anxiety displayed by the people of the vil lage as on the night of Tuesday, when high and low, rich and poor might be seen in grouper around his - dwellin g , waiting for -any tidings which might be con veyed by the numerous messengers who called from time to time, to learn, alas ! the saddening news, that the doctor was getting weaker, and that there was no hope of his recovery. In his last moments he was quite calm and collected, and expired without a struggle. All that medical skill could do was done. Besides Dr. Ca meron, who was in constant attendance, Dr. Crichton was most attentive also; but the hour was come. lie is gone, and an extensive district mourns his loss. It is the doing of an all-wise Providence." 0 teach us so to number our days that we may apply our hearts to wisdom." Tho deceased was born at Loanachau, near Fort• William, on the Bth July, 1810. After completing his studiesl and taking his degree, he settled among us abaut seventeen years ago. As fares the circle of his acquaintance extends, it is unnecessary for us to say one word as to his supe rior medical skill, his benevolent disposition (which made him the poor man's friend), his character as a man or as a member of the Church, in which he was an office bearer. All this is sufficiently attested by the following remark, made in our hearing, by one who occupies the highest place among us:—" I never know a more kind hearted man than Dr. Kennedy; his death will bo a public calamity." The interment took place on Satur day. His remains were attended to their last resting place, in the churchyard of Blarour, by a vast assemblage from all parts of the country. The banks and all the shops remained closed till the afternoon. The mournful procession, which started about 11 o'clock, A. 31 , received accessions to its numbers all along the road, and by the time the burying-ground was reached the numbers ex ceeded a thousand. As a last mark of respect the body was carried " shoulder high" for upwards of nine miles. We are glad to state that everything was conducted in the most orderly manner. (The following account of the same gentleman is from a Correspondent.) This eminent surgeon and physician died here aud denly, on the 12th current, about four o'clock in the morning. He was ill but a few days of typhus fever, it is supposed caught in the discharge of his professional duties as medical attendant on the poor. During the last day of his valuable life, so intense was the interest felt by the inhabitants of Fort William, that they col lected and remained in crowds on the square opposite his residence, up to the hour when his death was announced to them. Sorrow and sadness have come over every one, for every one finds he has lost a generous and kind friend. Dr. Kennedy was a universal favourite, both from his kindness, bland manners, and medical skill ; and the people of Lochaber and surrounding district look upon his loss, in the prime of manhood, and in the height of eminence in his profession, as a calamity beyond ex pression severe. Saturday, the 15th current, was fixed for conveying his respected remains to the churchyard at Blarour. Every possible token of respect and regard to the me mory of the deceased was on this occasion shown by his countrymen. All the public offices and shops were shut; the cofffin was carried on a bier, shoulder high, a distance of more than ten miles, accompanied by more than 1,500 persons, all eager to do the last offices to ono who was so dear to nil, and whose character as a man and a physician all admired, and whom all will long con tinue to deplore. Not the least of those who will miss him, will be the English families who reside in the coun try during the season, with whom his was an especial favourite. It is best not to be angry : and best in the next Place, to be quickly reconciled. —Eliza Cook's Journal.
