N ATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSU RANCE SOCIETY. OFFICE, 26, CORNHILL, LONDON. Capitalsoo,oool. Empowered by Act of Parliament. The system of Deferred Annuities, originally proposed by the Na tional Loan Fund Life Assurance Society, for the better advance ment of the objects of Benefit and Friendly Societies, having received the approbation of a considerable body cf the active members and officers of those Institutions, and the Directors of the National Loan Fund Society having been urgently solicited by them to establish a Branch Office in connexion with those Societies and the Operative Classes generally, in which their services might be successfully en gaged, a Committee has been sanctioued by the Directors to open communication with the different Societies, with the view of more effectually disseminating the valuable benefits amongst the indus trious classes, and a plan has been proposed with that object. ADDRESS OF THE COMMITTEE Many praiseworthy but ineffectual attempts have been made to bring within the scope and operation of the laws of mortality and money the savings of the industrious classes, as well as various cal culations regulating their distribution, having for their object either Immediate, contingent, or deferred benefits. A slight examination, however, will demonstrate that the con struction of these associations or societies is defective; and that in stead of affording an easy access and a free choice of investment, whici' should be the privilege of every one, they confine too nar rowly the 'kennel through which a benefit can alone be secured ; and, in proportion as their action is circumscribed and embarrassed, their utility is limited. For example, it is not to every individual or to every class amongst the industrious community, that provision in case of sickness is an object of such importance as to call for a pecnniary saerifiee ; -while to others such a provision appears more attractive, and the kiss of employment caused by sickness is a risk against which'they desire to be guarded. For this anomalous state of things there is an effective and simple remedy ; that is to say, Instead of covering, by one weekly or annual payment, two or more contingent or deferred benefits, so to arrange it that each separate benefit should have its separate contribution. It is to net having observed this rule, and to the association of two dissimilar thin - Aims, and by confounding a sick allowance and an annuity fund in one and the self-same payment, that much of the evils and mismanagement has arisen amongst Benefit Societies. No mechanitsn can be so perfect for the management of a sick - ness-fund provision at' that afforded by the constant sectional asso ciation and watelifeltfess of the several members composing it. By this means a thorough and constant check is mutually exercised, and none but the really sick are likely to become chargeable upon it. But the same perfection, or the same security, is seldom attainable where a fund is to be accumulated through a succession of years, and where results are to bear oat calculations, money investment being in general beyond the experience of the industrious classes. For these reasons it is cigar that the funds destined for a provision in sickness should be kept entirely distinct from the fund intended as a provision for old age :- Ist. Because the laws of-sickness and mortality, though apparently connected, do not depend on'the same calculation. 2d. Because there are a great number who, in order to secure a larger provision in old age are willing to take the risk of providing for probable sickness on themselves. 3d. Because the responsibility of massaging a provision for old age, continued to a distant period is, in a great measure, incompatible with voluntary associations, fluctuating laws, and individual irre sponsibility, and more exposed to a failure in the performance of such a contract , that when undertaken on the same principles that ordinarily govern commercial bodiei. 4th. Because the expenses of providing for sickness must, when united in the same payment with provision for old age, tend to dimi nish still more this provision : nor is it wisdom or good policy to en danger the one for the sake of the other. Impressed with these convictions, and with an intimate knowledge of the discussions passing within the bosom of many of the existing Friendly and Benefit Societies, the parties whose names are here unto attached, have had several meetings. with a view of proposing or adopting a remedy for those and other evils ; and in this manner to give an additional force to the principles of brotherhood, unity, and mutual aid, on which friendly societies • are based, by guarding them from the risks of sudden dissolution. After much diligent search amore st the combinations ingeniously proposed from time to time for the attainment of one of the principal objects of Friendly and Benefit Societies, they have found none equal In simplicity and comprehensiveness of design, as well as forethought and sympathy for the wants of the industrious classes, as the plan proposed by the National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society. It is true that the author of that plan has furnished an argument against provision in sickness; but, without concurring in the immediate ex pediency of abandoning a provision in sickness, no one can read the other part of the plan itself, without being fully satisfied that the convenience and safety of Friendly and Benefit Societies will be greatly secured and consulted, by separating the payment of a sick allowance from an annuity for old age. A deputation having waited on the directors of the National Loan Fund, who met in the handsomest manner the overtures made to them for the establishment of a separate office for the transaction of business connected with Friendly and Benefit Societies, and the in dustrious classes sregilllfskt7VltfiWtere4l into. con tkititißl the we n promulgation of the benefits contained in the an- nexed nrospeettss, under the guarantee of the Capital of the Society, and which, without interfering with the numerous objects connected with the institution of Benefit and Friendly Societies, will in their opinion greatly enlarge their sphere of utility, and afford a protection to the working classes in old s age and a dversity, which nothing up to the present day has adequately secured to them.

Friday being the thirty-second anniversary of the memorable victory of Waterloo, his Grace the Duke of Wellington gave his annual banqaet to his gallant surviving companions in arms in that eventful battle, at Apsley House. The banquet was laid out with its accustomed splen dour in the Waterloo Gallery, the truly magnificent decorations of which have on former occasions been so fully described in this journal as to rendour repetition unnecessary. Field-Marshal his Royal Highness Prince Albert, attended by the Marquis of Abercorn, Lieut.-General Sir Edward Bowater, and Colonel Bowles, honoured the Noble and Gallant Duke with his presence, arriving at Apsley House about half-past seven o'clock. His Royal Highness, who was attired in the uniform of a field marshal, was received, on alighting from his carriage; by his Grace the Duke of Wellington, the band of the Grenadier Guards, which was stationed in the vest. tibule, playing the " National Anthem." His Royal Highness and the Noble Duke immediately proceeded to the saloon, where several officers had already assembled. The scene in the vicinity of Apsley House at this moment was very pleasing. A considerable number of persons had assembled to view the arrival of the visitors, amongst whom were many old veterans, whose conduct in the field was marked by the honorary distinction dis played on their breasts. It is unnecessary to state that the banquet was laid out in a style of princely magnificence, in every respect worthy the interesting occasion. At eight o'clock dinner was announced, and the gaests immediately passed from the saloon to the gallery, which presented a most gorgeous appearance, the sideboards being covered with the choicest plate, embracing testi monials to the Noble Duke during his memorable career in Spain and Portugal ; while the table, which was richly ornamented with a profusion of gold vases and candelabra, presented a display alike imposing and mag nificent. _ _ The Noble Duke occupied a seat in the centre of the table, and was supported on the right by his Royal Their Excellencie u s is t T h oh e f Highness the Prince Consort. e Angles e y,Naon b o l v e e r D i a the nu D uke e a mnwdaaj soNeaapolitanMajor-General S , l% .i f i c r i i n n H i i s t a te y r i i o s y; th S t m h e e itr e l l a i ir l q . so occupied seats in the immediate his uniform of field, marshal; the Marquis of A ng l ese y wore the dress of his old regiment, the 7th Hussars, and Sir Harry Smith that of the Rifle Brigade. The other veterans wore the costume of their respectiie ranks, all displaying Waterloo medals and other honorary decora tions. Covers were laid for nearly ninety guests. In the list of attendants there was not much alteration from previous years; additions were, however, observable in the persons of the Earl of Cathcart, Sir Peregrine Maitland (who has just returned home from the termina tion of a brilliant career at the Cape), and Lieut.-Col.

Overture, " Clemenza di Tito." Waltz, "Rosen ohne Dornen" (Strauss). Selections from the "Bondman" (Balfe). Polka, " Carita" (Lan ner). Cavatina from " Nino" (Verdi). Galop, "La Ciochette," on motives from Kuhe's pianoforte pieces. At the close of the banquet, The Duke of WELLINGTON proposed the health of " Her Majesty the Queen," prefacing the toast with a few appropriate remarks expressive of the loyalty and affection which her Majesty's excellent attributes secured from all classes of her subjects. The toast having been drunk with all the honours. The band played the " National Anthem." The Noble Duke next proposed the health of " Field- Marshal his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and the other members of the Royal Family." In the course of an ad dress highly- eulogistic, of the Prince Consort, the Noble and Gallant Duke said the zeal of his Royal Highness for the service in which they were all engaged, was second to none, and he felt greatly honoured by his pre sence among them that day. Th e toast having been duly honoured, The band played the " Cobourg March." His Royal Highness the PRINCE CONSORT, in return ing thanks, said he felt highly flattered at being the only officer not present on the ever memorable field of Water loo, who had the honour of a seat at their banquet table. He was fully sensible of the privilege he enjoyed, and could not adequately express to their noble and gallant chairman the gratitude he felt for the opportunity thus afforded to him of being associated with so many brave men, whose whole lives had been devoted to the service of their country.—(Hear, hear.) He begged to return the company his most sincere thanks for the kind man ner in which his health had been received, and, in con clusion, requested permission to propose a toast. His Royal Highness added, with marked emphasis, the toast I refer to will be better conveyed in one expression than in any number of words. I shall, therefore, conclude by , proposing the health of " His Grace tho Duke of Wel lington, and long may he live to serve his country." The toast having been drunk with every possible mark of enthusiasm, The Duke of WELLINGTON responded in a brief ad dress, marked with much feeling. Before resuming his seat the Noble and Gallant Duke gave as a sentimll ent, " The memory of the many gallant fellows who fein the brilliant battle of Waterloo. The sentiment, as usual, was drunk in solemn silence. The Duke of WELLINGTON, on next rising, said he had the pleasure of seeing arou many officers who had, fot some years past, been employed on various and arduous duties abroad, and who had now returned to t h e i r native country ful l of honours, having performed the duties of their respective stations with honour to themselves and advantage to their country.—(Hear.) The Noble Duke dwelt especially on the services of Sir Peregrine Maitland, and concluded by proposing the health of that gallant officer and his brethren in arms who had recently returned to England. The toast baying been drunk, • Sir PEREGRINE MAITLAND briefly, but feelingly, ac knowledged the com pliment on behalf of himself a nd brother officers. The Duke of WELLINGTON then rose, and said, that having alluded to those officers who had so recently re turned to their native country, he desired more promi nently to allude to one distinguished officer, who had recently come among them from the scenes of the several actions in which he had been engaged, and which had cast so brilliant a lustre on British arms, and rendered such essential service to their common country. He ne ed perhaps scarcely add that he alluded to an officer who was well known to all of them—whose services in the Peninsula, were as active as they were conspicuous —whose exertions during the late Kafir war were of eminent importance, and -whose distinguished conduct on the banks of the Satlej, 'during . the recent Indian war, had rendered him justl d i stinguished in the eyes of his native country.—(Cheers.) 'The Noble Duke added , "I y beg to propose to you the health of Major-General Sir Harry Smith." The toast having been responded to with every pos sible mark of enthusiasm, Sir HARRY SMITH re se, evidently labouring under feelings of intense emotio n. After a momentary pause the Gallant General proo eeded to acknowledge the toast in the following terms:-1•' Immortal Duke of Wellington: The present moment I truly say is one of the proudest of my life. To have my Ai ealth thus flatteringly proposed by the great captain of: the age, while surrounded by many of his gallant andt veteran generals, and among so large an assemblage of any old comrades, so famed for deeds of arms, is an honour which I could scarcely , aspire to, and which I feel unable adequately to acknow ledge.—(Hear.) To your Grace I owe all the military honours I have received—to your Grace I owe the uni form I am now proud to wear.* To the high opinion expressed of me by your Gracc am I indebted for the warm reception with which my name has been greeted here to-day, and for the honours I have recently received from my Sovereign and from my native countrymen.— We in this age, so far as in us lay, have endeavoured to steer your Grace's course, having witnessed the eminent services which our country has derived from your Grace's exertions in its behalf. May posterity continue to do so.— (Cheers.) Your Grace's course has been through good and evil report—through changes of events and circum stances—a course undeviating and unerring in devotion to the service and honour of your Sovereign, and the welfare of your native country.—(Hear.) Again I thank your Grace for the honour you have done me with all the warmth of heart of one of your old Riflemen." The Gallant General was warmly applauded on resuming his seat. institution of otforsanof. suit which m ay be necessary for that purpose, it sd/llutehebsirersultstins't::gifaffam:eange.tAherertpup'oorrtunthitey fristo the Bill now before Parliament to the share holders, and .+6king their opinion as to the amendment or moclificationPr°thPerireeetfY, thereof, or of sti2v and it doth fore adjourn th e f urt h er consi • deration of this subje:it to Wednesday, the 30th day 'of June instant, at DeO's Royal Hotel, in Binning.. ham, at half-past two o'c'ock in the afternoon, when the consideration of such of the matters mentioned in the requisition as relate to the oonduct of the twelve di rectors therein named, the propr:ety of instituting such, suit or suits in equity, in the name of the Birmingham and Oxford Junction Railway Company , as counsel shall advise, and of t a ki ng proceedings in Parliament or otherwise, will be further resumed ; and it is also re solved, that the further consideration of all and singular' other the matters mentioned. And referred to in the re quisition of the shareholderc:of the 29th of April last, adjourned unto and be resumed, if necessary, at such adjourned meeting. Mr. MOZLEY seconded the resolution. Ile could not but express his regret that some advances had not been. made by the other party which would have brought about an adjustment of the differences between the oppo s i ng companies. He regretted that the directors had thought proper to pursue a course at variance with the interests of the shareholders ; and that there might be no mist a k e about the matter, he again begged, in his own behalf, and on the behalf of those who acted with him, to state that t anxious ween t h e for m. a Ifpeaceable such a n to theadjustment is not come to, the fault will rest on the other side. theywere differences stillbe Many unjust and unfounded imputations had been cast on himself, but he was willing to overlook all these in his anxiety for peace. Mr. TELFORD thought it very hard that one adjourn ment should thus take place after another, to the great inconvenience of himself and others. It was all to be ascribed to the conduct of certain individuals in the interest of the London and North Western Company. Mr. ROWSTON, of Manchester, begged to tell the Hon. Proprietor that the fault rested with the Great Western party. He would remind the chairman of that com pany of the story of the unjust judge, and the impor tunate widow, mentioned in scripture. They would persist in meeting as often as they thought necessary until they obtained justice.—(Hear, hear.) And he wished to take that opportunity of asking the chairman of the Great Western Company, how did it happen that every company with which the Great Western is connected should be at a great discount, while those lines connected with other companies were in a flourishing condition ? All that those who acted with him (Mr. Rowston) wanted of the Great Western was, that they should let the Birmingham and Oxford Company alone, and leave them to manage their own affairs.—(Hear, hear.) "Mr. Itirsizzar., M.P. (with considerable vehemence) • I beg to tell the hon. proprister - rtnar-tH.-s-- The Duke of WELLINGTON gave as the next toast the health of " Field-Marshal the Marquis of Anglesey and the Cavalry Brigade." The Noble Duke prefaced the toastavith a few appropriate remarks, highly eulogistic of the char ac ter 1211 noble-and s zallant companion in arms. ----- The toast having been duly honoured, The Marquis of ANGLESEY returned thanks in an eloquent and appropriate address, in the course of wh ich his Lordship dwelt on the prospect of war, the ne ce ssity of being provided for any emergency, and the blessing to the country that the Duke of Wellington still lived to lead the British army on to victory. The Duke of WELLINGTON next gave the health of " Sir Frederick Adams and the Infantry Brigade," which having been duly responded to, was followed by that of " Sir Hugh Ross and the Artillery Corps," which that veteran acknowledged in a very feeling man ner. ask me any question about the connexion of 'the Great Western Company with other companies. I further Some other routine toasts being disposed of, the com pany retired from the gallery to the saloon, where tea and coffee were served. — His Royal Highness Prince Albert took leave of the Noble and Gallant Duke about eleven o'clock, shortly after which the party broke up. It was generally remarked that the Duke of Welling- ton appeared in better health and spirits than on any similar occasion for some years past. --- _ _ * In allusion to the colonelcy of the 2d battalion of the Rifle Brigade recently presented to Sir Harry Smith by the Commander-in-Chief. beg to inform him" that I am here not in my capacity of chairman of the Great Western, but as a director of the Birmingham and Oxford Junction Company. It may be right to mention to the meeting that the hon. proprietor is the individual who got up an agitation against the leasing of the Bristol and Exeter line to the Great Western—a circumstance which, I believe, the shareholders have deeply regretted since. Mr. HOWSTON—I beg to tell Mr. Russell that-- The Hon. Proprietor was here interrupted by. cries of " Order, order!" and " Question!" from the friends of the Great Western Company, and was told by the chairman that he could not be allowed to proceed, as they had nothing to do with other companies' quarrels. Mr. Th re e so C l s at a i r n wished er th e Rowston then very reluctantly resumed his seat. m w AN heth theresolutionto suggest could to the not be b o e ve c r on of . fined to a simple matter of adjournment, as the direc tors could not a dmit that they h a d d one any thi ng call ing for lawsuits, i njury, or anything else. They simply sought to carry out what they considered the wishes of the shareholders. A 'ter a good deal of discussion, several alterations were made in the resolution, when it was put and car ried unanimously in the following form, namely— " That with the view of affording a further opportu nity of any explanation or statement to be given by the directors at a further adjourned meeting, and for ena bling them to take measures to lay the Bill now before Parliament before the shareholders, and which adjourn ment this meeting desires to make for those purposes, this meeting be adjourned toWednesday,.the 30th of June, instant, at Dee's Royal Hotel, in. Birmingham, at half past two o'clock in the afternoon, when the considera tion of all and singular the matters mentioned and re ferred to in the requisition of the shareholders of the 29th April last shall be resumed if necessary." The meeting was then declared adjourned till Wed nesday, June 30. BIRMINGHAM and OXFORD JUNC TION RAILWAY.—BALTLE of the GAUGES. On Saturday afternoon, at two o'clock, an adjourned meeting of the shareholders in the above company was held in Dee's Hotel, Birmingham. The meeting was held in compliance with a numerously-signed resolution, calling on the directors to show cause why a portion of their body should not resign, and why they are prosecu ting the amalgamation of this line with the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Dudley, and leasing the united line to the Great Western Company, in opposition to the opinion of the shareholders, as expressed at their meet ing of the 13th of March last. P. H. Muntz, Esq., chairman of the company, presided on the occasion. Among the gentlemen present we observed Charles Russell, Esq., M.P., chairman of the Great Western Company, Richard Spooner, Esq., M.P., N. Parsons, Esq., J. E. Mozley, Esq., Frederick Barlow, Esq., and several of the directors of the Great Western and North Western Companies. Mr. MOZLEY regretted that no communication was to be made to the meeting, which would have saved the necessity of proceeding any further in the course which the dissentients had thought pioper to pursue. Mr. Mosley then strongly complained of the conduct of the directors in appointing on the very day of the meeting called for the appointment of further directors, a sub committee of seven of the now existing directors, to whom were delegated the entire powers of the full board of directors. He felt that the resolution was not legal. He was sure that Parliament never intended that so kmalla number of the directors should have the sole the Great Western Company , and consequently ;night naturally be supposed to be in the interest of that com pany. The thing was a delusion, and was contrary to the expressed wishes of the proprietors. lie would therefore move— " That this meeting, referring to the resolutions of the directors passed on the 13th of March last, set out in the notice under which this meeting is held, do pro test against such resolution as being wholly illegal, and beyond the power of the directors, and can only view it as an attempt on the part of the directors to deprive the shareholders for whose interest they are trustees, of the privilege of electing six new directors, by which they are entitled by the Act of Incorporation, inasmuch as the delegating to a sub - committee , or any iree of them, all the powers of the directors, without exception, in cluding even the power to make calls, and of inserting into bills in Parliament affecting the property of the shareholders, any clause they or any three of them may thinkfit, rendered the appointment of such six new di rectors 'at , the meeting of the 13th of March a mere delu sion ; and that this step on the part of the directors is the more reprehensible, :since the majority of a quorum of such committee might consist merely of persons who are also directors of the Great Western Railway Company, or directors of the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Dudley Railway Company, the in terests of which companies might be contrary to the in• terests of this company ; and that the circumstance of the said committee being appointed on the very day of, and but an hour prior to the appointment of the six new directors (and without being communicated to the share holders at the time of such appointment, conclusively shows tbat such committee was appointed, not with a view to the necessary conduct of the company's affairs, but for the express purpose of nullifying in effect, the election of the six new directors by the shareholders, and this meeting doth protest against all the acts of such committee, and doth direct that notice be given to each of the directors that the shareholders will hold to be illegal and of no effect, everything done by such com mittee ; and this meeting cloth appoint Messrs. Colmore and Beale, the agents of the company, for the purpose of giving such notices accordingly." Mr. JONES, of Liverpool, seconded the motion. The CHAIRMAN said that before putting the resolution he begged to state that nothing had been done by the executive which had not for its object to save expenses to the company, and to carry out the mere working de tails. If this committee had not been formed, and fur ther directions had been appointed, the shareholders might have fixed on a quorum by which the whole of the proceedings of the concern would have been brought to a stand still. Mr. MOSLEY said that the idea of making a quorum, which would have put an end to the functions of the board, had never been entertained. Such an idea had never entered the mind or minds of men who acted with him. The resolution was then put, and carried unanimously. Mr. TURNER then moved the following resolution : " That this meeting, being informed that the directors have prematurely, and without authority expended, or contracted to expend, large sums of money belonging to the company, with a view to the performance of the agreement of the 12th of November, 1846, before the same agreement has been sanctioned, and have also con tracted for the purchase of property which they had no power or authority to buy, doth refer it to Messrs. Samuel Beale, Abel Poyton, and John Bradshaw Wank lyn, the younger, to ascertain the particular circum stances of such transactions respectively, and whether any and what sums of the company's moneys have been already expended or applied in effecting the same, and which of the directors were present at the meeting au thorising such application." He was informed that the estimates far exceeded the capital of the company, which was the reason why he moved the resolution. Mr. CaosSFIELD seconded the motion. The CHAIRMAN wished to know under what part of the notice calling the meeting this resolution came. He could not find that it came under any part of the notice. Mr. TURNER dil not wish to press the motion if not in order. Mr. MOZLEY said he thought that the part of the notice which referred to the intention of considering the "conduct of the directors and other matters," would justify the resolution. The CHAIRMAN : I consider the resolution wholly irrelevant, and am legally advised that it cannot be put. Mr. TUNRER I must press its being put. Mr. Momuir lam sorry to hear what the chairman has stated. We shall sonsider that it has been refused to be put, and therefore we will let it stand in that position. It does not involve, at the moment, any matter of vital importance. Mr. PARSONS, after a few general observations, moved the following resolution, namely— " That, subject to any explanation or statement to be given by the directors at the further adjourned meeting (and which adjournment this meeting desires to make for that purpose), this meeting is of opinion that the agree ment of the 12th day of November, 1846, between the directors of the Great Western Railway Company and the Birmingham and Oxford Railway Company, and the Birmingham, 'Wolverhampton, and Dudley Railway Company, is in its present form injurious to the interests of the Birmingham and Oxford Railway Com pany, and that the directors ought to be restrained from all proceedings to carry the same into execution ; of before this meeting directs the further prosecution o HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—The Queen's box, on Saturday evening, was occupied by Lady John Russell, the Marchioness of Lansdowne, the Countess of Mount Edgcumbe, the Countess of Minto, the Hon.

The cotton hosiery branches continue in a de pressed condition : the depression has now lasted more than two months, and at a time of the year when the demand is generally the most extensive. A new manu facture has for some time been carried on with great se cresy, but it has at length been revealed, and excites great attention at Belper and ite vicinity, Yin., hosiery which has been hitherto imperfectly teasled and a nap raised by the hand after the articles are made, is now, by a new inventi - n, combed, and the nap raised by machinery, while the web is making on the frame; this has long been a desideratum. There is thought to be a slight improvement in the silk glove branch, which has led to expectations of a further ex tension. After a struggle of more than isixty years, England has at length given up . the silk fancy hosiery trade to France, as the provincial and now the almost n needles are put the tickler machinery; new sets of p lain silk only house in that branch has dismantled its : frames of into the frames, and the hands are m aking gloves.— Nottingham Review.

Sign td, by mons on Tuesday. the 15th day of June , 1847 . Let tins recut ae a record and protest against the organic theory of Doctors, which, for profit, sanctions the use of such deadly preparations medicinally. Let it also he a record and protest against all arbitrary enactments which tend to perpetuate such a false and scandalous theory on man kind ; but, above all, let it operate as a warning to all Ministers and other persons in power as to how they interfere with the sacred medical liberty of the subject, in order to prop a sinking profession. People of England ! this Petition is the greatest triumph of Hygeists ; it is a decisive sign that the people are commencing to deliver them selves from the errors of an interested Medical Faculty ; it shows that they are beginning to think on this all-important question. Let interested parties now try to pass arbitrary Medical Laws—posterity will know how to appreciate their motives. The British College of Health consider this Petition so important, that a copy Or it, with the 21,700 names attached, has been preserved as a lasting record, to go down t o future generations. All the Hygeian Agents throughout the world are hereby requested to give it the most extensive pub licity.—Dated this 18th day of June, A.D. 1847. BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH, New-road, London.

On Saturday the second exhibition of this society took place in the gardens at Chiswick, and, the weather being fine, was most numerously attended, and merited and received general commendation. The Calceolaria were most splendid , and attracted much attention and admiration. Those most noticed were the Grand Sultan, a crimson species, and the " Henderson," Sir 1:1. Smith. There were also some magnificent Azalias, particularly the Azalia Varie gates and Acredes Odoratum, both from China. The heaths, of almost every colour and form, were also a great source of attraction ; as were the exotics, orchids, and other orchidaceous plants, the fragrance of which so pervaded the marquee when greatly crowded as to be almost over• powering. We must also not forget the geraniums, of which there was a goodly display, particularly the Jenny Lind, Curiosa, and Madame Grisi ; and of the roses, which are always most beautiful. The fruit appeared most melting, and consisted of pines and strawberries, pineapples, melons, peaches, nectarines, ' grapes (white and black), cherries, &c. Soon after twelve o'clock the com p any b egan t o arrive, and by one o'clock, the tim e a p po i n t e d f or th e opening of the door s, a lar g e nu mber of fashionables extended fro m th e gar d ens to h to ad ar b r e iv e e n se t un until From that peri o d th ey con ti nue d derably after five o ' c l oc k.

About six o'clock the sky began to get clearer, and the evening proved much finer than had been anticipated by many from the appearance of some portions of the afternoon, so that nothing occurred in the slightest degree to mar the happiness and joy which animated the countenances of all, and a great many did not leave till towards dusk. The only member of the Royal Family who visited the gardens was his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, and that took place before the doors were ,ened. Lord Normanby has returned to Paris, to resume his duties as Minister of England at the court of France. There is no foundation whatever for the rumours of the probable retirement of his Excellency from his high office.—Observer. • .. No. 17,084. LONDON, MONDAY: EVE ING N7 1;• JUNE 21, 1847.
