NATIOWAL LOA.N FUND LIFE MISTY • RANCE SOCIETY. OFFICE. 26, CORNHILL, LONDON. Capital 500,0001. Empowered by Act of Parliament. e inni system Fundeferred Annuities, originally proposed by the Na nal Loan Life Assurance Society, for the hatter advance !Silt of the objects of Benefit and Friendly Societies, having received approbation of a considerable body cf the active members and ;_a_izere of those institutions , and the Directors of the Natio nal Loan l'un Society having been urgently solicited by them to estabilsh'a attach Office in connexion with those Societies an d the Operative ._ ;lose generally, in which their services might be successfUlly ea "VA, a Committee has been sanctioned by the Directors to open unication with the different Societies, with the view of more y disseminating the valuable benerits amonst the Indus "Xll classes, and a plan has been proposed with that object ADDRESS OF THE COMMITTEE. a t enT praiseworthy but ineffectual attempts have been made to Within the scope and operation of the laws of mortality and ~„,_"4 4e y the savings of the industri o u s classes, as well as various cal i,ntions regulating their distribution , havin g for t h eir object either ediate, contingent, or deferred benefits. slight examination, however, will demonstrate that the con tion of these associations or societies is defctive ; and that in of;affording an easy access and a free choice of investment, ch should be the privilege of ever y one, the y confine too oar ' mt ''' l Y the channel through wh i c h a benefit can alone be secured ; .„„ Z's In proportion as their action is circumscribed and embarrassed, itility is limited. For example, it is not to every individual, ;7 1 0 every class amongst the Industrio us communit y , that provision . I, Sae of sickness is an object of such im p ortance as toe all for a Tiniary sacrifice ; while to others suck a pro vision apprs more 4 `is'active, and the loss of employment cause d b y sickness is a risk . ssinst which they desire to be guarded. For this anomalous state t h ..tilings there is an effective and simple remedy ; that is to m ore say, j o • ' , ad of covering, by one weekly or a nnual payment, two or b enefit or deferred benefits, so to arrange it that each separate should have its separate contribution. It • is to not having observed this rule, and to the association of dissimilar functions, and by confounding a sick allowance and " annuity fund in one and the self-same payment, that much of the and mismanagement has arisen amongst Benefit Societies. 00 mechanismcan be so perfect fbr the m ana g ement of a sick „ Lks-fund provision as that afforded by th e constant sectional asso ir on and watchfulness of the several m embers composing it. By means a thorough and constant check is mutually exercised, and Vle but the really sick are likely to becom e chargeable upon it. n ut the same perfection, or the same security, is seldom attainable where a fund is to be accumulated through a succession of years, it(l Where results are to bear oat calculations, money investment ing in general beyond the experience of the indastrious classes. 0r these rea sons it is clear that the fends destined for a provision in Leknese should be kept entirely distinct from the fund intended as a Korlsion for old age : lit. Because the laws of sickness and mortality, though apparently e cmneeted, do not depend on the same calculation. 121. Because there are a great number who, in order to secure a • r Provision In old age are willing to take the risk of providing Probable sickness on themselves. Because the responsibility of managing a provision for old age, wntinned . to a distant period is , in a g reat measure, incompatible ~. RA voluntary associations; fluctuating laws, and individual irre "Plaslbility, and more exposed to a failure In the performance of Vaintraot, that wheastudertaket on the lame pliselples that • th. Because the expenses of providing fir sickness elnet whe n WWI in the same payment with provision for old age, tend to dimi- Y4h still more this provision : nor is it wisdom or good policy to en 'lnger the one for the sake of the other. _lmpressed with these convictions, and with an intimate knowledge the discussions passing within the bo som of many of the existing nendly and Benefit Societies, the parties whose names are here -4410 attached, have had several meetings, with a view of proposing Ot adopting a remedy for those and other evils ; and in this manner to give an additional force to the principles of brotherhood, unity, .d mutual aid, on which friendly societies are based, by guarding `ll them from the risks of sudden dissolution. After much diligent search amonat the combinations ingeniously )I. 9 o sed from time to time for the attainment of one of the principal Z l :iacts of Friendly and Benefit Societies, they have found none equal simplicity and comprehensiveness of design, as well as forethought ~4 1 4 Vinpathy for the wants of th e industrious classes, as the plan ZuPosed by the National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society. It is us that the author of that plan has furnished an argument against provision in sickness; but, without concurring in the immediate ex. IVlency of abandoning a provision in sickness, no one can read the "mer part of the plan limit, without being fully sa . istled that the " 4 ven.ence and safety of Friendly and Benefit Societies will be :1" 03 1' secured and consulted, by separ atin g the p ayment of a sick ' , ranee from an annuity for old age. A• deputation having waited on the directors of the National Loan who omet in ish the handsomest manner the overtures made to for the establment of a separate () face for the transaction of . ;sines connected with Friendly and Benefit Societies, and the in `▪ dlistrious classes in general, resolutions have been entered into, con tti,.tuting the undersigned as a Commit tee, with power to add to its n umber, for the promulgation of the benefits contained in the an -led prospectus, under the guarantee of the Capital of the Society, tud which, without interfering with the numerous objects connected ' ll l the institution of Benefit and Friendly Societies, will in their o pinion greatly enlarge their sphere of utility, and afford a protection t• he working classes In old age and adversity, which nothing up to "'t Present day has adequately secured to them.

JOHN BURNIE, Stcrwtary. March 26, 0347. The weather is promising, and there is hope yet to be indulged of a fair spring trade. Provisions seem to have attained their highest price, and to be lowering in a satisfactory manner. This alone will improve the general condition of this and every other manufacture. HOSIERY.—The hosiery trade is, if any change be observable, somewhat better, the demand having slightly increased. The velvet lace patent is still progressing, and we have seen specimens of g ood V e l v et made from the b )bbin-net machine. A patent has been obtained for making this article, both from the warp frame and the rolling locker bobbin-net machine. By the latter method the web is made from two distinct warp beams, and an instrument ttomi-ss betwean the tw o , whi c h cuts them into separate pig c: s, leaving a pile upon each. The warp-method has a shuffle. The making of muslin lace engagfs the anxious attention of most of the able. mechanics, and great efforts are making to improve and cxtend this manufacture, for which we understand there are consi derable orders, and the demand will be more extensive' when this exeelknt article becomes generally known. — Nottingham Review. 18, Great Mariborough-street.

Shortly before one o'clock the line of route described was lined by a strong body of police of different divi sions, under the direction of Superintendents May, Beresford, Lowry. Hughe , =, Grimwood, &c., and soon lifter one o'clock the regiment of Royal Horse Guards (Blue) from Knightsbridge Barracks, preceded by their splendid band, in gorgeous State dresses, with black velvet caps, entered Constitution-hill from Hyde Park, the band playing, to the delight of the assembled multi• tude. From the garden-gate of Buckingham Palace to the garden-gate of St. James's Palace, the mall was lined by a portion of the regiment, stationed by twos, and the remainder, with the band, passed through the Stable-yard, lining the route as they proceeded, the band taking up its position in the open space in front of St. James's Palace, and opposite to St. James's-street. About half-past one o'clock, the 2d Regiment of Life Guards, from Regent's-park Barracks, also preceded by their splendid band, in magnificent state dresses, with black velvet caps, marched down St. James's-street, their band playing, and on reaching the bottom a squa dron appointed as an escort, proceeded to Buckingham Palace. The remainder, with the band, passed through Hanover gate, and took up their position in the large quadrangle opposite Marlborough-house, and having on the first entrance played the national anthem, continued to perform most of the popular compositions of the day. The guard of honour in the flag court was a detachment of the Fusilier Guards. Some of the company began to arrive shortly after oce o'clock, and amongst those distinguished individuals, great officers of state, &c„ who were early in their at• tendance, we noticed the Duke of Wellington, the Mar quis of Lansdowne, Sir C. Grey, Bart. ; Sir J. C. Hob house, Viscount Palmerston, the Lord Chancellor, Lord Campbell. Earl' Clarendon, Viscount Morpeth, Arch-' bishop of Canterbury, &c. The Foreign Ambassadors, Ministers, and corps diptontatique, the Bishops, &c., all entered at the entrance in the Ambassadors'-court. About a quarter to two o'clock their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, with the Princess Mary, and their attendants, entered St. James'e Palace in two carriages by the garden gate. At ten minutes to two her Majesty and her R and Illustrious Consort, Prince Albert took their de parture from Buckingham Palace. and proceeded to St James's Palace. The royal cortege consisted of three the private state carriages, the two first containing the members of the royal suite, each drawn by two black horses, splendidly caparisoned with rich crimson ribbons, and the coachman and two footmen to each carriage in state liveries; and the third, containing her Majesty and Prince Albert, was drawn by two of the beautiful cream-coloured Hanoverian horses used only on state occasions. richly caparisoned with deep blue ribbons, with massive chest-pla'es of the royal arms; the coachman and four footmen dressed in state liveries with black velvet capi, the royal escort consisting of a squadron of Life Guards. The Queen, we rejoice to say, looked remarkably well, as did also Prince Albert. They were most enthusias tically received along the whole line of the assembled thousands, and both her Majesty and her Illustrious Consort returned the congratulations of her loving subjects with her accustomed grace and c ondescension. The Queen was wrapped in a splendid ermine mantle, and her head dress was a tiara of diamonds., Prince Albert wore the uniform of a field marshal. Her Ma jesty, on alighting, was received by the military bands playing the national anthem, " God save the Queen." This was the first drawing room which our gracious Sovereign has held since the appointment of the present Government. There were, therefore, to be made not only the formal presentations of the various members of that body upon taking office upon their appointments, but it was also the first similar occasion upon which the Earl Spencer has officiated in the capacity of Lord Chamberlain, and the Earl Fortescue as Lord Steward On the 31st Instant IIEATH'S ILLUSTRATED NEW TESTA MENT.

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. Balls, a gentleman residing at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842, on returning from liarlestoue Siarket to Wey bred, 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 ItONVL AND'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 now to boast 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. ROsVLAND'S MACASSAR OIL preserves and reproduces the Hair ; prevents It from falling off or turning Grcy ; Changes Grey Hair to its Original Colour; frees it from Scurf and Dandriff, and makes it beautifully soft and curly. 4, .* Beware of "spurious compounds" under the title of "MA CASSAR OIL," some under the " implied" sanction of Royalty and he Goveniment Departments, with similar attempts at deception. ROIVLAND'S ALLEASS sclit OIL is sold by the proprietors, at 20, HATTON-GARDEN LONDON, and all respectable Chemists and PerfilMCMl. of her Majesty's Household. Soon after her Majesty's arrival, and before the re ception of the company, the scholars of the mathematical school at Christ's Hospital were admitted, each scholar carrying before him eith er a c hart or a drawing. These passedinto the presence of her Majesty, who was graciously pleased to inspect the productions of the boys, and to express her approbation of their exemtion. The boys having retired from the Queen's presenc9, returned through the midst of the company in the state rooms, still carrying their charts and drawings, and left SEND Eight Postage Stamps, and by return, and post free, you will get a handsome TEASPOON of C.

Watson, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Folgate, London. the Palace. The drawing-room commenced with the reception of the diplomatic corps, and at the head .of the foreign re was A M m in h is a t s e s r a s th a , p r. pea n re is d t E he xe C el o l u en n e t y Legion of Honour ; the Countess de S t. Aulai dewSutr.eAuthlaeireo,rtdheer ore 7n t c he notthe A r u e s s t e r n i t n , but Ambassador, the Countess present, and several other ladies of different Ministers, were present. Austrian Dietrichstein, the wife of The Princess Callirnaki, wife of the Turkish Minister, was present, for the first time at a public court. Lady Palmerston attended in the diplomatic circle to introduce to the Queen Mrs. Bancroft, wife of the American Minister, and some other Ministers' ladies, who were presented for the first time. After the reception of the diplomatic corps the gene , ral company were admitted to pay their respects to their Sovereign. The attendance was most brilliant, and the costumes of the ladies were of great beauty, elegance, and splen dour,solon of of every the variety sovere i g n o f colour is tthe and e tru t e e s x t t uirnerl ex x n d o a f s the e prevailing mode, it may not be uninterebting to state that figured silks and satins predominated much over those of a single colour, and had a very rich effect. Even velvet suffered by the comparison with some of these most beautiful fabrics. The dress itself was often of lace, or some other light material over satin ; but it is in the train—that especial characteristic of the court dress—that the opportunity for the display of the choicest manufacture of the country occurs. One of the exceptions to silk, satin, and velvet, was Lady Frances Sandon, whotae train was of silv e r tissue shot a w n i t d h h g r r i l e l e i a n n , and t. had an Another l effect ady had t a once a i b n o t o h f purple magnificent and gold tissue, which was also very beautiful. Among the velvet trains those of the Baroness Brunnow and the Countess Dietrichsteiu, the one of ruby - coloured velvet ' with a deep and very elegant border embroidered in silver, and the other of scarlet velvet, with a magnifi cent deep bordering of gold, were pre - eminent for their effect. The young ladies who were to be presented, generally appeared in some simple colour, trimmed merely with a ruche or artificial flowers. Among the dresses, the magnificent point lace dress of the Countess of Dundonald must not pass unnoticed. Indeed, her Ladyship's whole costume had a moat striking appear ance. The diamonds with which she was adorned were placed on bright green leaves, both in the stomacher and in the wreath on the head, and it is impossible to exaggerate the agreeable and beautiful effect which such an arrangement produced. The Honourable Ars. Montague was another instance of the mixture of jewels with green leaves with a similar effect. The I tisplay of diamonds both on the dresses and on the head were generally very magnificent. Among the more costly and superb jewels may be noticed those worn by the Countess of Ranfurly. Lady Guernsey wore a row of orient pearls of immense value, a bandeau of fine brilliants, and other valuable jewels. The diamonds and costume of Mrs. Samuel Platt were very beautiful. Mrs. Cornewall and her daughter wore rows of pearls of great value. The Countess of March appeared in a very hand some tiara of diamonds. Lady Eleanor Balfour's dress displayed a mass of the most magnificent jewels ; and Mrs. William Stuart wore a necklace of brilliants, with a cross suspended of very large size indeed. But wag nificent as these were, there were no diamonds at the drawing-room at all to equal the necklace worn by the Baroness North ; every stone was in itself a jewel of enormous value. The costumes of the Duchess of Bed ford, Lady Peel, the Countess of Jersey, and Lad- Clementina Villiers, the Countess of Clarendon, the Countess of Radnor, and Lady Palmerston, were re- STATE OF TRADE. FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, MARCH 26.—N0 great extent of business has been done in foreign wools this week, but the prospects for the spring trade appear more encouraging. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, MARCH 26.—The transactions in wool this week have not been large, and are limited to a supply of the immediate wants of the manufacturers. In prices we do not quote any alteration from last we ek's rates. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, MARCH 26.—Though we cannot note any great increase in the sales of this week, we have certainly had more inquiry, 4 and prices are fully as firm as last week. There is au opinion that we have seen our lowest point for the present. • LEEDs.—The cloth markets et both Cloth Halls have been of much the same character as the markets during the last few weeks. The demand continues to be prin cipally for goods of low qualities for shipping ; but fine goods, considering the season, continue to be exceed ingly dull of sale. Prices continue steady, and the stocks moderate. Business continues to improve in the wareheuses a little. The wholesale houses buy with the greatest caution. The country drapers are, however, purchasing very freely for Easter, and foreign houses are moving a little more than they have done for some time. On the whole, the prospects are considered more en couraging than might have been expected a few weeks ago. BRADFORD MARKET, MARCH 25.—There is a steady demand for combing wool, and as the supply is a bare one, prices are firm. Short wools continue in good re quest at, former prices. There is considerable improve molt in the yarn market, both for the home and export trade. The spinners are mostly working to order, and a cot.siderable number of idle frames have been brought into requisition. There is a slight increase in prices. The business in the piece market has a stirring aspect. Large purchases still continue to be made, both for America and the Continent. We cannot, however, hear of any improvement in prices, which continue stationary. A deal of silk is now used in our trade. MaNcHEsTEIt, THURSDAY EVENING.—WQ have no decided change in our cloth market this week, though more inquiries, perhaps, by the larger buyers, but which, as far as has transpired, has led to no important transac ion.

The London trade still con tinues very flat; country houses are making cautiously, and no improvement has yet manifested itself in the demand. Spinners are still working short time. Wools are steady. The cotton market is flatter, and one house has this week given notice of a reduction of one shilling per bundle from the last list.—Leicester Journal. THE LACE TRADE.—We have had a few buyers, and the market continues muoh in the same state we last reported—rather quiet, without any change in prices.

Pre-eminent above all the costumes of the court in splendour and beauty, was that of the Queen, who wore a dress of white satin, trimmed with gold lace, most nplendidly ornamented with diamonds. Her MA.jeNty also wore a most magnificent train, richly trimmed with gold lace. The Ladies of her Majesty's Court, inelu ling the Duchess of Sutherland (Mistress of the Robes), and most of the Ladies of the Be,lehamber and the M.sids of honour appeared in dresses of great elegance, and of the most costly description. Among the Ladies presented to her Mai( , sty were— Viscountees Ilardirge, Viscourvesslkland, Lady Charl , ,tte Eliot (daughter of the Earl and Couetess Minto), Lady Guernsey, Lady liulik, Lady Dundonald, Mr=. Itollestor, Miis Ilobhouse, Miss Canning (daii;zliter of Sir Stratford GJ.nning), Ilfiss Adam, Miss F. Lidddl, Miss Parke, and Miss E. Goulburn. The Duchess of Bedford, the Duchess of St. Albans, the Marchionesses of Ormonde and Cholmondeley, the Countesses Delawarr, G. anville, Morley, Dalhousie, Rosebery, and ltanfurly, the Lady Mayoress, Miss 13ur dett Coutts, and a very numerous list of the nobility and gentry were present at the reception. In respect of the gentlemen present. the uniforms presented the usual gay and splendid appearance, covered for the most part with gold embroidery. The Duke of Wellington appeared in his Field-Marshal's uniform. The Illustrious Duke appeared in excellent health. Among the company were—Lord John Russell, Sir Robert Peel, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Earl Grey, Lord Viscount Palmerston, Sir John C. Hobhouse, Earl Clarendon, the Duke of Bedford, the Marquis of Clann carde, the Earl of Auckland, Mr. Labouchere, Lord Dal housie, Earl Radnor, Lord Dundonald, the Attorney- General, Earl Fitawilliam, the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs, Lord Duncan, Lord Campbell, Lord Sandon, Mr. Francis Baring, Sir George Grey, Bart.; the Recor der, Sir Wm.

His Grace the Duke of St. Albans wore his badge, as the Hereditary Grand Falconer of the Crown, suspended from a gold chain round his neck. One of the most beautiful uniforms worn at court wai that of a nobleman in the suite of the Austrian Ambas sador, who was habited in the Hungarian costume, richly decorated with precious stones. The other foreign gentlemen present appeared in the different uniforms of their respective countries, enhancing by contrast the ef fect of this most brilliant assemblage, thronged, as it was, with distinguished officers in naval and military service. The ompany assembled in th e dr aw i ng -r o om and Queen Anne's room, the former being appropriated to those having the privilege of the entree, and the latter to the general company. After the entree company had paid their respects to the Sovereign, the doors of Queen Anne's room were opened, and the general company were admitted and passed on to the Throne-room, where her Majesty, ac companied by her Royal Consort, received her distin guished visitors. Her Majesty was surrounded by a brilliant Court, com posed of the Royal Family, the whole of the ladies of the Royal Household, the great officers of State, a number of the Cabinet Ministers, and several of the principal officers of her Majesty's Household. As the ladies passed in succession before the Queen their names were announced to her Majesty by the Lord Chamberlain, and in cases of a first appearance at Court, or on their marriage, had the honour of being presented to her Majesty. Retiring from the Royal presence by a different entrance, as usual, in the Throne room from that by which they approached, the com pany, after paying their respects to the Sovereign, retired to the drawing-room, portrait gallery, and grand banquet-room; the two former of which, owing to their crowded state, became almost impassable towards the close of the Court. When the whole of the company had passed before the Queen, the doors of the throne-room were closed. Her Majesty and Prince Albert remained a short time longer, and then took their departure from St. James's to Buckingham Palace, escorted, as at their coming, by a party of Life Guards. A Luard of honour (Life Guards), accompanied by their band in their state uniforms, with the silver kettle drums displayed, were in the large courtyard of the palace, the band playing a few bars of the national anthem on the guard taking up its position. The band then left for the garden entrance to receiye her Maj sty with the usual honours on her arrival, after which they rejoined the guard and played some favourite pieces during :he reception. In the circle were the French Ambassador, the Ilus- sian Ambassador, tile Au-trian Ambas odor, the Prus sian Ambassador, the Tu. kish Ambassador the Ameri can Minister, the Bavarian Minister, the Peruvian Minister, the Neapolitan Minister, the Hanoverian Minister, the Braz.hau Minister, the Danish Minister, the Dutch Minister, all the Great Officers of State, the Lord Ch.incellor (Lord Cottenham), Land John Russell (First Lord of the Treasury), the Marquis of Lansdowne (the President of the Council), pinto (Privy Seal), the Right lion.

The Qu( en and Prince Albert appeared on their return in high spirits, and apparently very 'much amused at something that had occurred, both enjoying a hearty laugh, which tended greatly to increase the enthusiasm with which their departure was greeted. The principal portion of the spectators remained, after the return of the Royal Family to witness the de parture of the company until the last carriage quitted St. James's Palace at seven minutes p ast four o'clock, when the crowd gradually dispersed. We may avail ourselves of this occasion to announce that an opportunity, by the express command of the Queen, is about to be offered to the public to gaze upon every member of the Royal Family. For a considerable time Winterholten has been engaged in painting what may be denominated a " family group" of the Royal Family, in which picture each of the illustrious group are taken in the size of life. There is also a second picture by the same artist, pre senting a portrait of the Prince of Wales as the Sailor Prince. By command of her Majesty, preparations are being made for the public exhibition of these splendid paint s in the great banquetting room at St. James's Palace. The arrangement, we believe, is, that the public shall enter through the iron gates, leading from Pall mall to St. James's Park, and so into the corrider and and up the grand staircase, and so on to the banquetting room, from which they will retire by the entree stair case into the Ambassadors' Court. The approaches to the Palace were admirably and efficiently kept by the new police. Her Majesty's Honourable Corps of Gentlemen at Arms were on duty in the State-rooms. The Queen and Prince Albert, attended by the Royal Suite, afterwards returned to Buckingham Palace.
