UNITED SIN GDOM LIFE 2 SSURANCE „ COMPANY, aa• WATERLOO-PLACE, FALL-MALL, LONDON. The Attention of Holders of Policies in the Equitable Assurance Company of London, is particularly called to the Half-Credit Scales of Premium of this Company, by which table the bonus to be de clared at the next investigation of the Equitable Assurance Compa n y 's affairs, in Janua r y, 1850, may be secured at a present manual payment of one half the rates generally charged by other companies. In the event of death the sum insured will be paid, after deduction of the Other half of the rates. Shouli the life insured survive the decla ration- ot.thre bonus, the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the Company will renounce all claim for the half , premiums which may be due thereon I or, in the event of the party being at that time- In bad health, the policy can be kept up at the full premium of the age as when first accepted. The above plan, originating with this Company, was found peculiarly advantageous at the last division of profits in the Equitable Assurance Company in 1840, when it was largely adopted, and many of the policies then effected are still in force, and large bonuses have been added to them on the Scala of the following table : Sam Assured.

SIR TIMOTHY TRIM I'll sing you a song of Sir Timothy Trim, In the hope that you'll all learn a lesson from him ; Sir Timothy Trim was a very smart man, And he dress'd on a very superior plan. In order that this might be properly done, Sir Timothy dealt with E. MOSES and SON; Nor wal it a foolishly fanciful whim— But it showed the good taste of Sir Timothy Trim. Whatever Sir Timothy wish'd to put on, He was certain to favour E. MOSES and SON; Who furnished not only Sir Timothy's clothes, But Hats for his head piece, and Boots for his toes- And oh ! how he came from his toilet 1 how smart 1 How likely to wine susceptible heart 1 Whenever I've hammed to gaze upon him I have felt a respect for Sir Timothy Trim. Sir Timothy's sons (as you'll readily guess) Studied fashion by going to MOSES' for dress ; And Sir Timothy's lady and daughters of course Choose MOSES' choice Habits when mounting a horse ; And Sir Timothy's servants, as tasty and smart, Had their liveries made at the very same Mart ; All the household, in fact, were in keeping with him — And was not that wise of Sir Timothy Trim ? May all learn a lesson and nobody trample On Sir Timothy's precept and noble example. • Sir Timothy's creed was a true one—that none Can in any way equal E. MOSES and SON. And how was Sir Timothy's household admired ! What thousands applauded who saw them attired ! And hence, I repeat, take a lesson from him, • And study yourself and Sir Timothy Trim.

XL A striking instance of the power of scientific art to-remedy the detects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Bails, a gentleman residing at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1843, on returning from Darlestone Market to Weybred, where he then re sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly bald as if his head had been. shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel, then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was induced to try the effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR , OIL, and it is highly gratifying to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was used the growth recommenced, and he has new to host of a very thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity, that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl, the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger. 11 .* Beware of " Spurious Imitations !—The genuine article has the words " ROWLAND'S MACASS Alt OIL " on the wrapper. Price 3s. 6d.-7s.—Family Bottles (equal to four small), 10s. 6d. ; and double that size, 21s. per Bottle. Sold by the Proprietors, at 20, Hatton-garden, London; and by al Chemists and Perfumers.

NA A G 11 One half the world are desolately single, and other E the supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense e right determ ne the former, and miscalculated hopes em bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical in and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness a.cl social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

Some placards of an exciting tendency having recently appeared at Rome on the occasion of the fete on the 17th ult., a proclamation was published there on the 22d by Cardinal Gini, in the name of the Pope, in which his Holiness, after alluding to the reforms which he had felt it his duty to introduce, declares that he intends to per severe in the same course, but to observe in so doing wisdom and prudence. The proclamation says — "His Holiness is firmly resolved to pursue the course of amelioration in every branch of the public administra tion which may require it ; but he is equally resolved to do this only on a prudent and calculated gradation, and within limits which belong essentially to the sovereignty and the temporal government of the head of the Catholic Church—a government which cannot adopt certain forms which would ruin even the existence of the sovereignty, or at least diminish that external liberty—that independence in the exercise of the supreme primacy for which God willed that the holy see should have a temporal principality. The Holy Father cannot forget the sacred duties which compel him to preserve intact the trust that has been confided to him." The Pope then enumerates some of the reforms and ameliorations that he has introduced, and the proclama tion adds : " The Holy Father has not been able to see, without deep regret, that certain restless minds are desirous of profiting by the present state of things to pro mulgate and endeavour to sstablish doctrines and ideas totally contrary to his maxims, or to impose upon him others entirely opposed to the tranquil and pacific nature and the sub lime character of the person who is the vicar of Jesus Christ, the minister of a God of peace, and the father of all Catholics, to whatever part of the world they may belong, or finally to excite in the minds of the people, by speeches or writings, desires and hopes of reform, beyond the limits which his Holiness has indicated. As these persons are in small number, and the good sense and rectitude which govern the great majority of the people have hitherto rejected these insinuations and counsels, the Holy Father feels assured that they will never find a welcome among the people. But it is more easy to imagine than to describe the grief felt by his Holiness at some horrible acts which have taken place in various provinces, and which are in open opposi tion to the peace and concord which be was desirous of es tablishing among his beloved subjects, when in the early days of his glorious pontificate he pronounced the sweet words of pardon. Another subject of grief for his Ho liness has arisen from certain assemblages of the multi tude, which, under a pretext of a scarcity of corn or other wants, have taken place in divers parts of the state, to the disturbance of public order, and sometimes with menaces against personal security." Cardinal Gizzi then says that the Pope does not con found these meetings with those which have taken place for the manifestation of gratitude for the benefits which he has bestowed upon the people, and that his Holiness is deeply sensible of these demonstrations, and implores God to bestow the most perfect blessings upon them ; but he adds— " The paternal heart of his Holiness suffers deeply at seeing entire populations and individuals incessantly put to expense for public demonstrations, artisans abandoning their labour to the injury of their families, and youths destined to study losing time which is precious to them. The heart of his Holiness would suffer more still if this state of things were to continue. The first year of his pontificate is over, and in this period of time the Holy Father has been able to appreciate the love, gratitude, and de votedness of his well-beloved subjects. He now asks a proof of these praiseworthy sentiments, and this proof must consist in the cessation of all unusual popular meetings, on whatever occasion, and all extraordinary manifestations, except those for which, anterior to the present notification, permission had been received from the competent authorities." THE FRENCH ARMY in ALGERIA. The following anecdote, hastily translated from a letter recently received by the relative of an officer of the French army now serving in Africa, may be in teresting to those who, in their hasty admiration of the military spirit of the " Grand Nation," may neverthe less be Ignorant of the severity of the French military code, and of the treatment which sometimes follows the most heroic acts of self-devotion in that land of " liberty and independence :" " A lieutenant in one of the regiments in Algiers, about a year and a_b_4l ago, was sent with a detach ment of 200 men to earl . ..pen thousand cartridges, &c., to a garrison stationed in a fort about thirty miles from head-quarters. On his road he was interrupted by Abd el-Kader, with a farce of nearly three thousand men; and though resistoke in such a case is useless, still a code in French military. law seems to say that an officer is not justified in surrendering without firing a shot. The little band was, therefore, formed into a square, and thus awaited the attack. A party of the Emir's cavalry having approached within a short dis tance, an Arab made a sign that he wished for a parley; and at length an Arab muleteer left the detachment, who, after some time, came back again, saying that Ahd-el-Bader demanded that the arms and ammuni tion of the little band should be given up, adding, that on that condition the whole party should be spared, otherwise he was resolved to crush them. The lieute nant having refused to comply with this demand, ex horted his men to do their duty, unloaded the mules, placed the ammunition so that it might be blown up in case of extremity, and thus again awaited the attack. After a little time, another messenger came to -say that Abd-el- Kader had sworn to cut off the head of every man of the party the moment a shot was fired by the French. What then was the poor lieutenant to do ? Here was, on one hand, the Military Code, which forbade him to sur render without showing something like resistance, by at least one fire ; and, on the other, certain death to the whole party if he did. In this dilemma he consulted with his sub-lieutenant and the surgeon, but they knew not what to advise • and at length he deter mined to go to Abd-el-lider, and offer his own head, that he might thus not only save the lives of his men, but preserve his own honour, by showing that it was not that he feared death for himself, but that he would not be the instrument of cruel slaughter to the 200 poor fellows under his command. On leaving the detachment, he was at once seized by an Arab, of whom he demanded a conference with the Emir. He was immediately conducted to Abd-el-Kader, whom he found seated under a tree surrounded by his chiefs. A French woman, the wife of a soldier, was sent to act as interpreter. Having given up his sword to the Emir, and explained to him the military code of his country, he then said:—" You wished that I should decide concerning my men. Well, I will save their lives; but, in not accepting the combat, I lose my honour, and disgrace this mark of distinction (pointing to the ribbon in his button-hole). Take, then, my head; take my life ; for you are about to take from the that which is equally dear to me." The lieutenant then took off his cravat, and, with an energetic sign, explained to the Emir his wish. The Emir looked at him all this time with great calmness, and presently, returning him his sword with an air of kindness, said to him, through the interpreter, " There is no cowardice in yielding to a force so considerable as that which is opposed to you ; accept the lot which fate has destined for you ; your men shall be treated with humanity ; none of them shall be dispoiled ; and they shall owe to you a life which they cannot possibly preserve otherwise. Do not grieve ; such are the chances of war ; mine to• day yours to-morrow. God will have it so." At this mo ment the sub-lieutenant and surgeon arrived ; for they having already written a note to the lieutenant to know the result of his interview, but which had not reached him, had no longer been able to endure the state of anxiety in which they found themselves. Whilst the interpreter was explaining to them the substance of the conference, the detachment itself arrived, without arms, and they all became prisoners. This happened on the 28th of September, 1845. They followed the march of the Emir's army, from place to place, until the 4th of October, when they were joined by 86 other French pri soners, the remains of a detachment of 400 who had been met by a very superior force, and had fought as long as they could. Oa the 4th of April, 1846, an order was brought that the officers of the two detachments, and four men as attendants, were to pack up their tents, &c., and march to Zarries, and that the rest of the men were to follow the next day. After marching for four days they came to a plateau where was encamped the main army of the enemy, but there were no signs of their poor men, whom, indeed, they never saw again, for in the interim they had all been slaughtered. Though the Arab chiefs denied that such was the case, and said that the men had been sent to Zahara, yet various circumstances excited a suspicion in their minds that they had been massacred ; and all doubt on the subject was removed on the Ist of June by a letter being brought to the officers, with Abd-el-Ka der's seal, stating that the Emir had thrice written to General Cavaignac about an exchange of prisoners ; that, in his last letter, he had stated that he had rea son to believe that the Emperor of Morocco, the ally of France, was about to make an attempt to gain these prisoners, and that unless an exchange was effected in twenty days they would be put to death. The le h tt a e t r stated that no answer had been returned, and t sur. therefore, there was no alternative. The eleven 'elvers expected that the same fate would shouonbetheirs; but it appears that they were spared, in t ut. expectation ey, n the that they would be ransomed by a lowtothem point blank, funds of the Emir being at a sum °f The ques tion, indeed, was at length put to francs for their whether they would pay 6 0 , , n sap g that severalthe sum was liberty ; but they refused, more than they could command. After nego tiations it was agreed that 30,000 francs should be p a id ; and, on the 24 th of November last, they were con ducted to a Spanish posses s ion near Algeria, where the moneywas paid, andtheSpanish governor sent them to the nearest F rench port in o Algeria. n their arrival there, they went to head-quarters ; and shortly after wards Lieut. Marin was ordered to take his trial before a court-martial for having surrendered to the enemy without fighting I He was found guilty and sentenced to be shot. He availed himself, however, of the privilege of every prisoner to appeal to the Court of Cessation, and this Court has since, nullified the decision of the other, and ordered another trial, which, it is expected, will take place in France, ' probably at Marseilles, because the lieutenant has represented that there is in Algeria a prejudice against him, awl that he cannot there have a fair trial. I have read the narrative of the captivity, during four teen months, of the lieutenant and his companions, and their sufferings and privations must have been terrible indeed; and yet, after all the misery, mental and bodily, that en lth i sa soldierhas deathgone f otrh an through, actgt) of he the is purest brought and Oh! wretched he is richtcheenuontgigrho atfu b l uy co a untry that compels a man, whether and to m p ukhneeitahhneers exchangewl h dgwilldeath aftohr o t r hh ietu no,if officer he becomes to become human i ty. sub stitute), then refuses who has done his best to save hi m f rom crue l b utchery. Every one who reads the simple narrati ve o f t hi s poor lieutenant, and his unvarnished letters to hi s s i s t er , must tay. and sentenced lieutenant o t o detest the name of conscription, abhor the words "mili tary horror," and execrate the name of Algeria ; whilst his blood must boil with indignation against a Govern ment so corrupt. or weak, or unfeeling , or ungrate ful, as to permit such destruction of men , and such endurance of suffering as is constantly taking place for omtr ai such a worthless possession as Algeria. The small garrison to which this lieutenant was carrying am munition, &c., consisting of 100 men, were set upon by the Arabs, and every one killed. Four days before this lieutenant was intercepted by Abd - el - Kader , another detachment of French, amounting to 400 men, was met by 3,000 Arabs. There was no parley; a fight commenced, and only eighty-six out of the number escaped death. There must be gross mis management somewhere, when small detachments are sent, as it were, into the very jaws of a numerous and bloodthirsty enemy. Perhaps you will ask the reason why the French Government does not make. an ex change of prisoners, knowing the sufferings they en dure, and the risk that exists of their being slaughtered, owing to the Arab chiefs having no settled place in which to keep them in safety, and being themselves re duced to such poverty of means, that they have not, at times, scarcely wherewith to nourish them ? The reason is, that they look upon Abd-el-Kader as a usurper of autho rity, a rebel chief, a mere head of a bandit party, and they will not recognise him as a rightful Emir, by treat ing with him as with any other lawful prince. And so, from this pretty piece of political etiquette, the paternal Government of France suffers its brave defenders to endure indescribable miseries and privations, or be slaughtered in cold blood if they hays the misfortune to fall into the hands of the enemy. " Liberty !" " France," and "La belle France," are pretty epithets, but, to those who get a peep behind the scenes they are little else than idealities. * a*** * a• DIET OF THE PEOPLE. (From the Dublin Evening Post.) The following communication from the Central Board of Health has been issued as a circular by the Relief Commissioners. It contains matter of great importance and interest to all classes, and on some points—particu larly those in reference to quality, as distinguished from quantity, of food—information new, but highly instruc tive to our readers, and for which we should feel grateful to the Board of Health : " Central Board of Health, 64, Lower Gardiner-street, 21st June, 1847. " Gentlemen,—The Central Board of Health have had under consideration your letter of the 3d instant, requesting to be informed 'in how small a propor tion rice may be used with Indian meal (if at all necessary) without sacrificing its useful properties, as a corrective of the prevailing malady of the population; or the advantage, if any, of the additional bulk it acquires in cooking ?' and, in reply, the Board desire to observe that the precise proportion for the object in view could not be fixed, as it would often necessarily vary ac , cording to circumstances of seasons, predisposition to disease, and even individual constitutions; but that as a general rule, rice may be mixed with advantage in almost any proportiocs, however small, with Indian meal, and in larger proportions, according as its cost may permit; care, however, being always taken, as explained in pre vious letters f the 11th May, and Ist June (see extracts annexed), that each ration when cooked should contain its full equivalent of raw meal and rice, as recommended by the Board of Health in the Ameipmanmicationo„ "The Board of *elk although admitting the ad vantage of bulk occasionally acquired in food by_cook. ing, yet, taking into consideration one of the forms of disease now prevalent in Ireland, do not recommend that rice should be used with the object of, giving bulk by the absorption of watery particles; but, on the con trary, that cooked rations should be given out in as solid a Corm as possible, leaving it to the naturalleelings of thirst to-supply the qdantity of fluid necessary for ealthy dig lion. With the object also of obviating the general Wltposition ttiCr , elsxation of the bowels, which will probably increase as the summer advances, the Board of Health recommend the addition of some of, the ordinary condiments to the stirabout, of which perhaps pepper will be found the most acceptable and the cheapest. " The Board of Health take this opportunity of acquainting the Relief Commissioners, that they have learned through the Inspectors, and from other sources, that a diminution in the prevalence of diarrhoea, and a marked improvement in the general health and strength of the people, have followed upon the substitution of cooked food for raw meal, and they, therefore, again recommend that every exertion' should be made for extending the use of cooked food in the distribution of rations. " While on the subject of diet, the Board of Health deem it of importance, through the medium of the Relief Commissioners, to draw the attention of Relief Com mittees, and of the people generally, to the fact, that a form of disease now very prevalent among the people; resembling in many particulars sea scurvy, is connected with, or dependent on a defective nutrition, arising, not from deficiency of quantity, but from deficiency of quality or variety in the food. The potato, although not containing a large proportion of nutriment, is remarka ble as containing within itself all the varied elements necessary for forming healthy blood; no one of the sub stitutes for it with the exception of oatmeal, possesses this remarkable (property; and hence the use of more than one article of food is necessary in order to secure a sufficient supply of the varied elements of nutrition, and thus to obviate the form of disease referred to. " With this principle in view, the Board of Health, as the season of the year now gives facilities for it; strongly recommend the admixture of onion, leeks, scallions, o' shallott, in cooked meal rations, or stirabout, which will both act as condiments, and will also furnish some of the elements of nutrition essential for forming health) blood. Onions are so rich in nutritive qualities, that as a mere article of food one ounce and a half may be con sidered as equivalent to about one ounce of meal. On every opportunity the importance to health of using ve getables, such as carrots, parsnips, turnips, and cabbage, along with meal, should be impressed upon the people. ` vatiolntsmtaoymnaokte, the perhaps, people b eg generally a o l f i place ya c (l in u a in these withob stehre highly nutritive qualities of beans and pease, which, rice is very extensively use d as the food of the p eo p le, those ten t o c t o w u e n l t v r e i e t s i m w e h s e a r e s muchwe experienceigh t n u f o t r r imh w ae e sn i tt g a h aus t g , ph c ot o t ta n ht t eea them that t f hr o. loa nutritive qualities , but that :t he deficienc y can be su p nm t rice by itself has low that with beans or pease some other vege ta I p e l n i e t d i s b , y t o eaddingh poaboutpound d of f wo ounces rice. t m o u f s t, beans, pease, o however, e sbe, re membered,r ble food must be used, as, although possessing, in a high degree, some of the most important elements of nutri tion, they nevertheless do not contain a sufficient variety of other nutritive elements to support the human body in health. (Signed) " ARTHUR MOORE, Secretary. " To W. Stanley, Esq., "Secretary Relief Commission." EXTRACTS FROM LETTER OF THE CENTRAL BOARD OF HEALTH, DATED IST JUNE, 1847., " The allowance of rice which may reasonably be made in lieu of Indian corn meal should not be less than one pound and a half of rice in lieu of one pound of Indian corn meal, where either grain is given alone; and the same proportion should be observed in a mixed ration, viz., if half a pound of Indian corn meal be given instead of the standard ration of one pound, there of rice to make the mixed ration equivalent to one pound should be given along with it three-quarters of a pound . of Indian corn meal; and in like manner of all cps:, b so f lit i f ai oo a i: l l 3 proportions in which rice and Indian oorn meal mix a may form a ration.

THE LATE FIRE AT MESSRS. MAUDSLAT'S.—An adjourned meeting of the parishioners of Lambeth was held last evening in the Vestry-hall, Church-street, to receive the report of the committee appointed to collect subscriptions towards replacing the tools of the work men who bad suffered From the late disastrous fire. The Right Hon. C. T. D'Eyncourt presided, in the absence of Mr. Ilawes, and it appeared that the net amount received by the committee was 3801., the total sum required being about 650/. Fifty per cent. upon their losses had been p sid to the workmen, and it was resolved that measures should be taken to raise the whole amount necessary to make up the deficiency. A vote of thanks was given to the Chairman, and the meeting adjourned for a fortnight. DEGRADING EXFOSURE Or PRISONERS BEFORY TBIAL.—We cannot refrain from an expression of our feelings which were indignantly excited on Tuesday morning last, by the utter want of all moral feeling and such common decency as all ranks of society, in the im proved age in which we live, most properly indulge in and cherish. As Eng l i shmen, we blushed for our country, to see, in the streets of Winchester, six country men, of exceedingly decent appearance, hand-cuffed and heavily chained together, and surrounded by policemen enough to eat them, if they had been fricaseed in the last New Zealand fashion. We concluded, of course, they were all murderers, or highwaymen, or burglars, and on their way to the hulks, after conviction ; instead of which, we found they had not even been tried, but were on their way for such ordeal from the gaol to the County Hall, and their offences, wiring a hare ,destroy idg partridges' eggs, neglecting to provide for an illegi timate child, and rebellion in a workhouse, or such othert that the minor offences as the magnates of the land (county magistrates,, adjudicate upon.
