SUBSCRIBED CAPITAL, .e 500,000. ' This Office was Established in 1841, and possesses tables formed on a scientific bas:s for the assurance of diseased tires. The urgent necessity forsuch an institution may be estimated by the fact that two-thirds of the population are not assurable as healthy lives, and that about one in five of the applicants to other offices is declined on examination. And that during the period of five years, as shown at the An nual General Meeting of the Proprietors in November last, up wards of 2000 proposals had been made to the Society, covering Assurances to above One Million. It is the only Company possessing tabulated rates of pre-' ?ilium for Disease deduced from extensive data. HEALTHY LIVES, both at Home and in Foreign Climates, are Assured with as much facility and at lower rates than at most other offices ; and a capital of HALF-A-MILLION ster ling, fully subscribed, affords a complete guarantee for the ful filment of the Company's engagements.

The Right lion. the EARL OF ROSEBERY, K.T., President. At the THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL GENERAL COURT, held in EDINBURGH, on the 2nd March, 1847 The Hon,L(ird COCKBURN in the Chair— The Manager read various statements, showing, infer alia, That the AMOUNT of INSURANCES effected during the year ending 31st December 1846, was 4447,200, and the number of Po:icies 617, being on an average of about .t 730 for each Po:icy. That the AVERAGE AMOUNT of INSURANCES effected ANNUALLY during the last ten years had been upwards of HALF-A-MILLION. That the CAPITAL arisii b es from the accumulation of the Annual Premiums was at the same date £1,805,860 Os pd, having increased during the year to the extent of upwards of £121,000. hat the ANNUAL REVENUE was at the same date '&266,364 13s 7d, having increased during the year to the extent of upwards of .t - 17,400. That the CLAIMS UPON THE SOCIETY in consequence of the death of Members during the year 1846, amounted to .&103,910 16s. 3d., of which £20,280 3s. 3d. consisted of Bonus Additions, the number of deaths being 82. That large as these sums were, however, and numerous as were the deaths, it had been ascertained by an approximate calculation that they were only in the ratio of 54 per cent. of what might have been expected, according to the bills of mortality, which form the basis of all the Society's Tables. t c o 7 o r i v, ir .a t r : d — Lord COCKBURN, after special reference to the results shown :iNotowm,ertehleyse,,airteh fricotpset,of‘ovihi,c,ohtwh-ienriseniptiotrleeddteolulsoioike in the above statements, thus concluded his address to the than hope, but with hope which is not n y othing confident but ra ttiiioensaelim(nHseaarre,, tenadr.)deallitaveonto add, that enormous as though we have been, with hun dreds and thousands of i n t erested individuals, we have never, to s e i n n t g e l r e court of ju s ti ce . since(ppl (Applause.) s we e .) began, w e have occasion not ad n. society began its labours. We have investedition since the mention of which staggers our conceptio ns , and t i t i n , l s s, in the very of great public trouble, when great shocks were givero "c t ' he stabiiity of almost every kind of security, and yet we have not lost by a single bad investment. I can say nothing that can add to the force of these facts. Words would be perfectly idle. U seems to me to be impossible that any intelligent or reflec tive mind can avoid contrasting the quiet and steady progres siveness of the Society with , other modes of laying out money, in which there is often no gain at all, or in which the gain of one man is the loss of another. (Hear, hear.). That cannot ' happen here. These are waters upon which every man who casts the bread of his prudence, is certain to have it retuned at the time at which those who are dearest to him stand in the greatest need of it. (Applause.) I dare say you have often observed that the best part, even of the best discourae, always consists in the practical improvement. (Laughter.) I come now to my practical improvement, which is just this :—I sup pose all of you have a taste for these Bonuses. I sin mean enough to confess that I have. (Laughter.) Well, how do you intend or expect that they ere to continue to 'be paid? Why. solely by increasing our business. The directors cannot go on adding 2 per cent. to our policies every year, unless we enable them to do so by additions to cur business. And how are we to increase our business? hese gentlemen perform their duty by making the Society flout ish. We have individually .a duty to perform also. Can all of you say that during the last year you have endeavoured to bring insurers to this Society? lam afraid that there are many hundreds, if not thousands, to wham no such reflection has ever occurred. I sin therefore particularly anxious to take this. opportunity of impressing upon you, as you value your own interests, to say nothing of the.interests of those to whom you may address yourselves, the expediency of suggesting to others the advantages, and even the duty of Life Insurance. I do not presume to ask you to act as solicitors for this Society; but 1 do presume to recom mend you to urge all your :uninsured friends to leave a position generally so full of risk. You may recommend them further to take the best office they can find; and, if they find a better than this, I can only say that they must be miraculously fortu nate.

" Sir,—With much pleasure I acquaint you with the benefit that I have derived by taking Blair's Pills. " On my journey hve weeks since, while at Chepstow, I had distressing symptoms of an attack of Gout in one foot, and with the utmost difficulty reached Bristol. By this time the disease had so much increased that I could not place my foot on the floor s the swelling being extensive and the' pain excruciating. Having often heard of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, I im mediately sent to Messrs. Perris and Score, Chemists, Bristol, for a box, which when I bad taken, the pain had wholly subsi ded. I continued the pills until I hail taken two-and-a-half boxes more, when to my gratification I was perfectly restored to health, and able to resume my journey. " I respectfully assure you that I shall recommend this va luable medicine to the fullest extent in my power, and never while travelling shall lin future be without it. During my ill ness my residence was at Mrs. Slocombe's, Greyhound Inn, Broadmead, Bristol, whose family, if requisite, will confirm the farts i have stated. " I forward ;4Case to you for publication, that the afflicted may be assured of and obtain relief. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully. " THOMAS YATES, " Traveller to Messrs.

The means of removing all Ner vous or Mental Disease. By these discoveries he cured himself of a deep rooted Nervous Complaint of 14 years duration. And, as 30 years ago nobody could cure these complaints, or can now, but liimsClf, he has for 30 years cured them from benevo lence rather than gain; and, out of 14,000 nobles, nobleses, M.P.'s,,admirals, generals. banisters, clergymen, physicians, surgeons, tradesmen, Sec. &c., he knows not 20 uncured who have followed his advice.
