NOTICE TO HOLDERS OF POLICIES IN THE EQUITABLE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF LONDON. UNITED KINGDOM LIFE SsuRANcE COMPANY, No. 8, WATERLOO-PLACE, PALL-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 Company's affairs, in January, 1850, may be secured at a present annual 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. Should the life insured survive the decla ration of the bonus, the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the Company will renounce all claim for the half premiums which may be due thereon ; 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 aro stall in force, and large bonuses have been added to them on the scale of the following table : Sum Assured. Time Assured.

At the first Septennial Meeting of this Company, held on the 11th March last, a BONUS, averaging 23 per cent. on the amount of premiums paid, was declared on Policies entitled to participate in Profits. Four-fifths, or 80 per cent. of the entire Profits of the Company, will at future divisions be appropriated to all Assurers entitled to share therein. Every advantage is offered by this Company to Assurers. On Policies taken out for the whole term of life, one-half of the An nual Premiums thereon may remain unpaid for five years. Parties Assured with the Company are allowed to reside in many of the Colonies without additional charge, and the Premium required fer the East or West Indies, and other extra risks, is more than usually moderate. By a plan originating with this Company, great security is offered to parties Assuring the Lives of others. Advances continue to be made to Assurers on Assignable Property or Income, and also on the guarantee of most undoubted personal sureties.

DANIEL SMITH and SON have been commissioned by the Noble Proprietor to announce that this truly important and highly distinguished FREEHOLD ESTATE will be SUBMITTED to F ÜBLIC SALE during the ensuing summer, unless an acceptable offer shall be pre viously made by Private Contract. It is famed as having been especially visited by Queen .Elizabeth, and as the residence of the renowned Hampden, and comprises a splendid domain of about 4,600 acres, embracing a romantic portion of the fine healthy Chiltern Hills and of the rich vale beneath, stretching to within a few miles of the several surrounding towns of Missenden, Wendover, Aylesbury, Princes Risborough, and High Wycombe. The mansion is a grand feature in the county, amidst the wood-crowned heights of Hampden, opening with south and east aspects through noble avenues (one still known as Queen E.izabeth's Gap) to the surrounding vale. It pos sesses capital stabling, good gardens, &c., but it is a place of compara tively small expense. The park is superbly timbered, and the woodlands are remarkably thriving, and form beautiful broken links in the sut,ounding diversified scenery. The farms are all let at very low rents to a respectable tenantry. There are keepers' and woodinens' lodges, and numerous superior cottages. The manors are extensive, and the advowson of Hampden-cum-Kimble, with its desirable par sonage, and the tithes of some adjoining estates, appertain to the property. The picturesque church, in which is the grave and mo nument of Hampden, is near the house : and it is the wish of the noble proprietor to transfer with the mansion (with a few unimpor tant exceptions), the whole of its highly interesting and valuable effects, the greater part being connected with its historical and other associations. Such a property, viewed as to its substantial value, numerous beauties, and interesting appendages, is but rarely in the market. Cards for viewing the estate can only be obtained by parties giving their name and address, of Messrs. Jones, Bateman, and Bennett, Solicitors, Lincoln's-inn ; and of Messrs. Daniel Smith and Son, Land Agents, Waterloo- place, who are fully authorised to treat for the sale of the property. Particulars may be also had of Mr. Grace, of Wardrobes, near Risborough, the liesident Agent, who will give every information to parties having orders to view.

The most EXTRAORDINARY EXHIBITION of ABORIGINES EVER SEEN in EUROPE, landed in Liverpool by the brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler, and will be EXHIBITED, for the first time, at the EGYPTIAN HALL, Piccadilly, on THURSDAY. TWO MEN, TWO WOMEN, and a BABY, of the BOSJESMAN or BUSH TRIBE, from the interior of South Africa, a race that, from their wild habits, could never before be induced to visit a place of civilization. This opportunity of gratifying the man of science and the student in zoology kas only been obtained by great personal exertion on the part of the gentlemen who have brought them to England, at an immense outlay of capital. On the passage to Europe a baby was born at sea, thus adding to the great interest that must be excited by their appearance. From the Liverpool Journal :—" Bosjesmans, or Bush People, from Southern Africa—lnteresting specimens of a most extraordinary race of human beings have been landed in our port; they are the Bosjes mans, or Bush People from the interior of South Africa, of which so mach has been written by the missionaries, and the few who have travelled to that far distant region. They are natives of the country bordering the Great Orange River, 1,200 or 1.400 Liles from Cape Town. They exhibit almost as striking an absence of the intellectual or higher faculties as is observable in the skull of that mockery of humanity, the Baboon, while the preponderance of the animal is al most equally as great. In every respect they are calculated to excite the greatest astonishment, and to confirm to the full those " Tales of Travellers" which we have certainly been inclined to look upon with suspicion. We could scarcely have credited that such a race could be in existence on the earth. That they are genuine no one can doubt ; In proof of which we give the following extract from a Cape Town Paper of the 24th December, which we have just re - ceived :—" We understand the brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler, which recently left Table Eay for Liverpool, had on board an unusual kind of exportation, viz., twe males and two females of the genuine Bush man species; they are in charge of a Mr. J. G. R. Bishop, who has been at considerable trouble and expense in procuring them from the interior. They are authentic specimens of this diminutive and ra pidly decreasing tribe of Aborigines, found only in Southern Africa. For particulars of the habits and disposition of the Bosjesmans, see Professor Loichtensteln's, Barchell's, Campbell's, Backhouse's, Methune's, and Moffatt's Travels in South Africa.

A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy the defects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls, a gentleman residing et Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842, on returning from Harlestone 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 'anued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly bald as if his head had been shaved;" and the Rey. J. E. Daniel, then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for his lost hair. tinder 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 esed 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. 11 .* Beware of " Spurious Imitationsl—The genuine article has the words " ROWLAND'S MACASSAR 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 Perftimers. MONEY MARKET.—The premium on gold at Paris is 21 per mile, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.68 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.87 k, it follows that gold is 0.75 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4371 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 1 . 1,81. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exch ange o f t *; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.14, it follows that the price of gold is the same in Hamburgh and London. The course of exchange at New York on London is about 1061 per cent.,bing and the pa r of e 2.83 109 23-40 per ex change between Engla n d and America cent., It follows that th e exc h ange is per,.cernkt.beainggainfosrt England. But th e quo t e d exchange at New lo bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. WM. SMITH, THE CO MEDIAN.—Mr. W. Smith, the well-known comedian, for many years a great favourite at the Surrey Theatre, ex pired on the morning of Sunday l last, at his late residence, 23, Brook-street, Kennington appears that the deceased for some time past had been indisposed, l but nothing fatal was anticipated by his friends. s late as last Thursday or Friday he was able to walk out, and ntshwaetrhteo was friend who had inquired how he felt, he replied get ting as strong as ever he was, and that he intended to s ee,it the undertaker for the present. He, however, was mistaken in his calculations, for he never went out again after he reached his home. His symptoms became worse, and he " shook off this mortal coil without a groan." His death is considered to have been perfectly natural, but, as it was rather sudden, it is quite probable that a Coroner's inquest will be held on the body. The deceased was only in his 47th year. CANDID —A poor woman, on Tuesday last, went into the shop of Mr. Moore, baker, Ancoats-street, Man chester, to purchase a 41b. loaf. On putting down a shilling in payment, she remarked, " That, sir, is the last shilling I have in the world, but when this loaf is eaten I will come again and take a loaf, whether I have money or not, and then I shall be sent to the New Bailey!" adding, " You know, sir, I have been a regular customer for many years, but there is not one of our family that is in work, nor any prospect of being so." Things are approaching a crisis, and of this our autho rities are aware. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE. — His fate furnishes a re markable instance of the instability of human greatness, and there is no doubt that his dislike to medicine remotely caused his early dissolution ; for rather than take some simple remedy, he allowed disease to gain the ascendancy over his constitution, and death was the result.

' - r i _ - CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COUNT. (Before the RECORDER.) John Freer, 28, William Martin, 25, and Henry East, 20, all described as labourers, were indicted for stealing a number of packages, containing a large quantity of property, consisting of moussefines de laine, shawls, cloth, ribbons, gloves, and other articles, described no being of the value of 7001, the property of Messrs.. Weaver and Co., who represent the firm of Crowley and. Co., carriers ; and Samuel Freer, 27, John Cherry, 28,, Joseph Taylor, 27, Joel Taylor (who surrendered), and Charles Austin, 37, dealer, were indicted for feloniously receiving the property knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Huddlestone conducted the prosecution ; the prisoners were defended by Messrs. Clarkson, Payne, Horne, Doane, O'Brien, and Hurry. This case occupied the Court the whole of the day, and was not concluded until a late hour. The robbery in question appeared to have been committed in a very daring manner. It appeared that on Easter Sunday, the 4th of April, Messrs. Crowley sent a van laden with goods to the station of the North-Western Railway at Camden-town, which were to have been dispatched the next morning into the country. The van was placed in the station yard, and it was discovered that during the night the covering had been taken off and a great quan tity of property stolen. The railway constable was called to prove the fact of the V , lll and its contents being safe about two o'clock in the morning ; and, iu answer to a question put by the Learned Judge, he said that he was the only constable whose duty it was to watch the property at the station during the night. Although the premises were so ex tensive that it took him sn hour to go over them, there being nine different lines of rails and sometimes as many as a hundred trucks laden with goods in different parts of the station. Joseph Page, a lad 19 years old, who had been com mitted to give evidence, arid who was brought from the gaol for that purpose, was examined, and upon the statements made by him the case against all the pri soners, with the exception of the two Taylors, mainly rested. He gave a circumstantial account of the rob bery and the manner in which it was committed. Ac cording to his evidence, he was walking in the fields near Chalk-farm on Easter Sunday, when he saw the prisoners East and John Freer, and they asked him to go up with them to the railway station the next morn ing and get some goods out, and he said that he at once consented to do so. Freer at the time said, that as it was Easter Sunday the men would be all out getting drunk, and therefore would not be at work so early in the morning, and this would give them a good chance. They made an appointment for the evening to meet together, and they were joined in the course of the day by the prisoner Martin. About three o'clock in the morning Martin, John Freer, East, and himself went to the railway station at Camden-town and he said they saw several persons about, but no one took any notice of them. The van was standing outside, and Freer wished to know whether it contained " up" or "down" goods, and he explained the " down" goods were usually the most valuable, as they consisted of silks, drapery, and valuable articles, whereas the " up" goods were mostly hardware, and other "Brummagem" and Sheffield manufactures. Upon ascertaining that the van contained "down" goods they immediately proceeded to ransack it, and having obtained a horse and eart from the premises of a carrier close by they conveyed away the packages and bales containing the prop6rty mentioned in the indictment. The witness said that on the follow ing Tuesday he went to a beer-shop at Peokham, kept by the prisoner Samuel Freer ; and he then heard that all the property was concealed in the cellar, and East said that he had some one cowing to purchase it. While he was there the prisoner Austin came in, accompanied by two Jews, and they went down into the cellar, where he saw the boxes and packages opened ; and after the Jews had examined all the articles they offered 501. for them, but eventually they agreed to give 5/. more, and it was arranged that they were to come at six o'clock the same evening and take part of the goods away. They came at the time ap pointed, bringing with them a chaise cart, and after they were gone the prisoner East said they had got some of the goods and had paid 201. on account, and they were to come on the following day and take the rest of the goods and pay the remaining 351. On the following Friday he again saw the prisoner East, when he told him the mea had not fetched away the rest of the things. and that Samuel Freer was afraid that his house would be searched and the property discovered, and witness then told him that he knew a man who would take them away; and on the following morning he went to Cherry, who is a carman, and upon his seeing him he said that Cherry called out, "Holloa, pa'n't somebody had a 'go in,' or a haul,' up your way ?" and he told him there had been such a thing, and they wanted his horse and cart to fetch some of the things away. Ile said, that after this Cherry, himself, and East, went over to Peckham w ith Ch erry ' s horse and cart, and when they got there East gave him 2/. to enable him to make his master's books straight, he having expended some of the money that had been paid to him by his master's customers; and he went away, leaving Cherry and East with the cart at Peckham. He was taken into custody, it appeared, the same day that this happened; and on the next morning he said he made a full statement of all he knew regarding the transaction. These were the principal points of the evidence against the prisoners whose names have been mentioned in the above narrative; and with regard to the two Taylors, it was shown that, soon after the robbery was committed, a cart which contained a portion of the stolen property was discovered upon the premises occupied by them; and in a pigstye upon the same premises there were found seine other articles, which were also identified. In addition to these facts, it appeared that some articles were taken from the house of Samuel Freer, which it was attempted to be s h own h a d f orme d part of the stolen property, but the evidence as to their identity was by no means conclusive. In order to confirm the evidence of the accomplice, itnesses were called to show that he was really in com pany with them at the places he described prior to the commission of the robbery, and also that an address card that had been upon one of the boxes was found in East's possession when he was taken into custody. It also appeared that upon the premises of Samuel Freer being searched a large quantity of wood was found broken up into small pieces, and it appeared evident that this wood consisted of the fragments of boxes that had been used to pack up the stolen property. e a r c s q a ui n t i t .l e t d y.

NEW COURT, May 17. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) James M'Lean and Charles Gardner were indicted for a misdemeanour in having obtained money by false pre tences.—Mr. Ballantine conducted the prosecution. This was a prosecution instituted by the Commis sioners for Emigration under the following circum atances:—lt appeared that a number of poor Germans arrived in London at the latter end of April for the pur pose of emigrating to New York, and theytonoakmued I p their abode at a public house kept by a person Ire land. in Gravel-lane. The pri soner 111, Leanintro duced' himself to them as a shipping agent, and repre -,ented the other prisoner, who accompanied him, as was lying in the Surrey Canal Dock, and he under :et( h ' o, everything c haeu s tr h e y . t e tot hh t o e h S ikn e o g .am,pusage 2s.

Upon the faith of these representationss ship appeared that nine of the unfortunate persons were in duced to give the prisoner Gardner . 1/. each as part payment of their passage money, and it turned out that the story told by the prisoners was merely a scheme to although defraud the poor people of their money, and that, s e a ildih that vesselie h M'Leau had made some proposition to the owner of the vessel with regard to chartering her, he refused to entertain it, and declined to enter into any agreement whatever with him. It was also proved that instead of being a shipping agent, as he represented him self, the prisoner M'Lean, in point of fact, was s journey mu) baker. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty against both the prisoners. The CommoN SERGEANT, after observing that the conduct of the prisoners had been most base and cruel in defrauding unfortunate persons in the position of thine poor emigrants, sentenced them to be transported for seven years.
