SCOTTISH PROVIDENT INSTITUTION The TENTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the. CONTRIBUTORS was held, in the Waterloo Rooms, Edin burgh, on WEDNESDAY, the 16th February current. ROBT.: SCLATER, Esq., in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN said,-1 thineirrie to myself to state that I have been called u p on t o fi e office of Chairman, not from any qualifications which ossess, but upon the simple ground that I happen to be Senior Director. I must, therefore, crave your indulge e for the very imperfect manner in which I discharge the duties that devolve upon me. You have been called together for the purpose of receiving from the Directors the Report of their proceedings dui ing the past year. It has been the privilege of the different gentlemen who have tilled the chair which I now occupy, to congratulate you on the in creasing prosperity of the Institution; a privilege which I am glad to say still remains to me. You will hear from the Report that we have done a larger amount of business than has ever been done in any former year of the Society's existence ; and it must be gratifying to us to know that the number of Policies opened from the .commencement exceeds that of any other Office in Scotland at the same period of its history. It is with no purpose of drawing an invidious comparison between our selves and kindred Societies that I make this remark. I men tion it simply as - a fact, which, while it is calculated to give us encouragement, must also be gratifying to us as members 'of society in gentras inasmuch as it shows that the value of Life Assurance is becoming more widely appreciated. Owing to the extent of disease which has prevailed during the last year, the Members will naturally expect that a greater amount .of mortality has taken place among ourselves. While such is the case, we have cause for congratulation that the deaths, though exceeding the number in former years, have not, even in the past year, reached the number exhibited in the Tables of the Society ; and I may remind you of the fact, that up to the period of investigation two years since, the deaths did riot greatly exceed one. half of the calculated amount. (Applause.) You will have observed by the notice calling the meeting, that steps have been taken to secure an Act of Parliament, confer ring the ben fits and i r:vi'e ;es of Incorporation. This will.be fully explained to you. I may state, however, that it makes no . material change in the D e ed o f C ons tit u ti on . It on l y a l ters some matters of minor detail, and makes such provisions' as are rendered necessary by the extension of our business in England. It only remains for me to notice, that the greatest. krmoay has existed among the Directors of the Institution, during the past year, as during all of that time I do not think we have been called upon to take a single vote. Whatever, therefore, comes before you, has been brought forward with our unanimous consent. (Applause.) • Mr. DONALD SMITH PEDDIE, Convener Of the Uu....- bronglit up the Report of the Directors.

The effect of the commercial occurrences of the past year, and of the general scarcity of money, has, bow- number of Assurances which have been surrendered or allowed to expire, freininability to continuepayment of the Premiums. While this is a result which, in its general aspect, i s t o be r,;.. gretted, there is no doul. tion in the fact that, notwithstanding. their increased numbers, and the now advanced age of some of the members, the deaths in the year do not exceed one and a quarter per cent. of the whole number, a proportion considerably short of the average number provided for by the Tables of the Society.

The position of the London Branch has occupied much of the attention. of the directors, during the year. After mature con sideration, they were unanimously of opinion that it was essen tial for the interests of the Society that a new agent should be appointed to conduct, the business of the Branch. Unfortu nately, some difference of views regarding the constitution of the Branch, in relation to the general management of the Inst may be Anstitution, occurred between the General Board and the Local Directors, which, they regret to say, resulted in the resignation of the latter gentlemen. To their influence is, undoubtedly, in a great measure, to be attributed the decided success which boo aAtcntiodi tha Pella hi fyitig therefore to know, as the Directors do from the best of all evidence, that their withdrawal has not in any way dimi nished their good will towards the Institution, and that their influence will still be exerted in its favour.

The heads of the Bill for Incorporation, referred to in the report, having been read, and the Bill laid on the table—. Mr. JOHN SCHANK MORE, Professor of Scots Law in the University of Edinburgh, said,--I have been Somewhat unex pectedly called upon to propose a motion for the adoption of this meeting; which, however, 1 do with the greatest pleasure; because I have always taken a deep interest in the success and prosperity of this Institution. I had many interesting consul tations with my late friend Mr. Cleghorn, before this InstitutiOis was formed, and I was so satisfied of the sound and scientific principles on which it was based, that I never doubted that, ri.s soon as they came to be un d ers t oo d, i t wou ld meet with that general favour and support which I am glad to see it has,sto such an extent, received. There were twogreat principles 014. which Mr. Cleghorn proceeded. The first was to snake The Premiums as low as was consistent with the entire safety of.tlle Institution, and so as to secure, beyond all risk, the fulfilment of its obligations. In this respect, most of the existing Assur ance Companies had been misled by the Northampton tables, and bad made the Premiums for yotthg lives-L.-in which I;in dude ages up to fifty or so—much higherthan was necessary, while their tables for the older lives. were somewhat too low. This error was perceived by Mr. Cleghorn, who, from more recent and better calculated mortality tables, found that the premiums for these younger lives could be safely sod very con siderably reduced; and he framed a table which all subsequent experience has proved to be singularly correct. lam happy to say that, since this table was framed by - Mr. Cleghorn, the Registrar-General of England has appended to one of his late Reports a table for the guidance of Life Assurance Societies ; and it is very gratifying to find that the rates specified in that table are nearly the same, and in many instances precisely the same, with those of this Institution. Now one of the chief and immediate benefits resulting from this reduction of the pre miums upon the younger lives is, that it operates as a direct bonus in favour of every Insurer, when the premiums of this Institution 'are contrasted with those payable to the older 'As surance Societies. It operates in this way. A person of twenty years of , age,- insuring with this Institution. can, for the pay ment of the same annual sum which other offiCes would demand for insuring £lOO, insure here £ll5 or £l2O, payable imme diately on his death. The Premium payable to-this Institution for £lOO is 41 15s. Bd., while, in other Offices, it is £2 Is. 6d., or or 42 3s. 2d., and, in some, still higher. There is thus an immediate and certain benefit secured by the lower rates of premium. But the second, and most important improvement suggested by Mr. Cleghorn was this, that if any profits should be made, after paying all expenses and securing all the obliga tions, as must be the case, even at his reduced rates of pre mium, these were not to be frittered away among those insurers, or their representatives, whose contributions to the general fund could never possibly have tended to. make such profits, but should be reserved for distribution' among those contribu tors whose payments into the general had come to be equal to the sum assured. The importance of this improvement has never, I think, been sufficiently- estimated. And truly the practice which has prevailed in several highly . respectable and flourishing Mutual Assurance Societies, of giving a share of what they call their bonuses or profits to the representatives of every insurer, who has been such for five years, is. to" say the least, very strange, and seems to indicate a very limited know ledge of the true principles of Life Assurance., It-reminds me of the old rule by whih originally all lives, whether young or old, were equally insured at the same invariable rate of 5 per cent. The absurdity of ,this rule was soon discovered ;. but truly the other is not much less absurd. Why, in five orseven years, every life should get the same share of what 'ate - called profits, is utterly incomprehensible.' The delay is plainly in tended to approximate somewhat to the sum assured ; - but this can never be done upon reasonable principles, till there be a graduated scale, corresponding to the age of the parties, ac cording to which the profits shall be distributed among the policies which fall. If any Office were to insure a person at 75 years of age, which, I dare say; few Offices would do, I have no doubt the premiums would' be so high that, in fire years, it would approximate to the -sum insured; and if this sum were ), and if 2 per cent. yearly of profits were tOlie added, for tch of the five years, supposing the policy then to fall, the sum payable would be £llO. But suppose a young man of 20 to insure £lOO at £2 a year, and to .pay the preniimu for Jive years, and then to die, his representatives 'would eilliajly draw 2. per cent. yearly upon his policy, and would also Ot "xllO, so that all that the office would receive by this transaction Wtruld be the interest upon the Prem i ums w hi r l ' hail hpon 'Nothinfr_ surely, can be more absurd than this. It might be thonzhi that these representatives, drawing the ..100 itisureil., or £9O more than they had paid into the office, would get a sufficiently handsome return for the policy ; and vl:3 - , over raid above, they should have all the premiums rebooted to them under the uttnte of bones, I cannot conceive. Yet this iithe footing upon Lax, a.a. 7 1.01.11fial 11.1111, only what is essential to the proper conducting-of the usiness The number of deaths in the year of Members assured for 'of the Institution. As the . passing of an A„gt of Parliament is capital sums has been 32, and the amount of claims thereby i 'a measure of considerable importance to the Society, I think emerging £17,100; on the other hand three Annuities haven this motion will now mee t th e cordial approbation of every . fallen in, for two of which su ms amoun ti ng t o ' £ l5OO had re- • • ' ' " • cently been sunk. The third was of smaller amount. Consi dering the almost unprecedented mortality over the country, the Directors do not doubt that the Contributors would be pr` pared to expect a higher rate in their own body than has occ•u red hitherto, and they consider they have cause ti they not now so well knOwn, one wouk r there is nothing which can give greater security and comfort to a family than the knowledge that a provision is secured for them. But it .is unnecessary to enter into this. Allow me, therefore, just to congratulate the mem bers on the great and extraordinary advances, which, under disadvantageous circumstances, this Society has made. Secu rity is thus given that it will continue to flourish; and I have no doubt that it will go on at Such a ratio as will prove highly ,rties. satisfactory to all pa. —. I have much pleasure, iherefore, in seconding the motion for the approval of the Report. The motion was then put to the Meeting by the Chairman, and carried unanimously. Mr. NVILLIAar INSTON, of Kirkbill, said,—l rise to ask you to join me in a very pleasing duty, that of returning thanks to the Directors for their valuable services during the past year. I feel very sure that, when we think of the great extra labour they have in perfecting the matter of the London agency, as well as framing the Bill now before Parliament, which _ r. i.think of t r Inrge ELMO aw of the land ; and, above all, when we 'a services necessary to transact such a _ J, now in connection with the institu tion,iwe must be at once prepared to give them our warm and 'hearty thanks.

A T a MEETING of MAGISTRATES, held in the Pl. Sessions House, on WEDNESDAY, the 9th day of March, 1848. The Worshipful the MAYOR communicated to the Meeting that he had received from the Stipendiary Magistrate a copy of a placard which had been presented by a Deputation of Porters to that gentleman, this day, in the Police-court. The Magistrates attentively cons' -the complaints made by the workmen, and they ewer opinion that the system of employing Master Porters ng according to the law, the Ma gistrates have not the er to alter the conditions upon which the work is now eon •ted in Liverpool; • bat the Magistrates observed, with gr regret, that according to the statements of the workmen, cof those now acting as • "Master ['Oilers pay the men in public houses, and often employ the drunkard in preference to the sober man, as the former is more likely to spend his wages." And that Some of the Master Porters keep.lodging-houses, and will . _ theretore, employ the single man in preference to the married man, who lives with his family, as the former is more likely to lodge with bhn." • • It appears to the Magistrates that these are practical griev ances which the local authorities 'may redress, and the Magis trates resolved to recommend to the Dock Committee immedi ately to take away th. licenses of all Master Poiters who keep public-houses; or pay men in public-houses; and also, to take away the license of any Master Porter keeping a lodging-house. To the other objections stated by the workmen, the Magis trates have to remark, that these objections are to the law of the land, which the Magistrates have no power to alter. If the workmen desire to have that law altered. they must petition the Legislature to repeal it, and for that purpose they should send a deputation to the Mercantile Associations, who will, no doubt, be glad to meet and to diseuss the propriety of petitioning for amalteration of the evil of which the workmen complain. The Magistrates most earnestly implore the workmen to ab stain from continual large assemblies, either. on,the Exchange or elsewhere. Stich meetings may have the etfket. of inducing disturbers of the peace to interrupt the tranquility of the town, and render. necessary measures of repression, to which the sort with great reluctance, though, in the es, they are prepared with firniness to 1 persons from disturbing the public trates would re Signed on behalf of the Magistrates,.

By WILLIAM WESTGARTH. • To all who wish to inform themselves of the past history, the present condition, or the future prospects, of one of the most interesting of our southern colo ' , the book is altogether indispensable. It is full of in ion - on every branch of the subject of which it tre nformation carefully tested and dise:imiaated, and nted in a form which is at once trust worthy, and we fitti - Glasgow Constitutional. " The work comprises a vast variety of important subjects, all of which are treated in a clear and correct manner."— Alt/no Post Edinburgh: SHALL, and Co VLlr La ULM 13UY1 Lonaon : SIAIPKIN, AfAR- which a great deal of insurance business is done ; and it is very apparent how greatly such a system must withdraw the profits from those who alone contribute to their being formed. - Even in this Institution, low as the premiums for the younger lives 'are, I know that such an ample provision was made by Mr. Cleghorn for the expenses of management and for contingent losses, that there must ultimately be very considerable profits realized; and surely those by whose contributions such profits are realized ought to draw them. This is the principle on which the main .improvement made by Mr. Cleghorn hinges. And, though the prosperity of this Institution has been very remark able, I am far from being surprised at it; and I am persuaded that, the more its principles are known and studied, the more favour will it receive from the public. I desire to make no in vidious comparison with other similar Institutions. I rejoice iir.the prosperity of all of them, because I see in that prosperity Much that must conduce to the moral and economical welfare of. the community. And all I wish is, that, in the details of their management, they sluruld be guided by sound and scien- ' “fie principles. I observe that ? every year since the corn nrielicement of this Institution, its business ,has been steadily and progressively increasing. I see. that, during its first year, 0182 Policies were issued, and that, in each succeeding year,.the number has been regularly increasing, till, during last year, they amounted to 472, being 56 above the preceding year. Al ',low me, then, to congratulate this meeting on the growing prosperity of ' the Institution, and to propose the following Mo tion which has been put into my hands?—" That the Meeting approve of the Report by the Directors , _ now read, and confirm the appointments thereby made ; farther, approve of the Bill introduced into Parliament by the Directors, entitled A Bill for Incorporating the Scottish Provident Institution, for con firming the Laws and Regulations thereof, for enabling the said Society to sue and be sued, to take and to hold property, and for other purposes relating to said Society,' which has now been road; and of the alterations upon the Deed of Constitution proposed to be thereby effected ; and authorise the DirectorA to proceed with the requisite measures for having the Bill passed into a law, subject to such alterations as may be made by Parliament, or as may be considered expedient by the Counsel to whom it shall be remitted by the Directors for revisal." • Mr. JOHN 111`CnAw said, before agreeing to adopt at once the letter part of the motion, although I have every confidence in the Directors, I would like to be informed what are the precise alterations which the Bill referred to makes in our Deed of Constitution ? '3lr. Joite HUNTER, jun., said,—lt is guile proper that Mr. ' , lll‘Craw should be satisfied upon this point. The Bill, in the very first clause, contains a distinct declaration—" That no thing herein contained shall relieve or discharge the Society from any contract, responsibility, debt, engagement, or obli gdtion to which the said Society is now or shall be hereafter liable, but the same shall continue as if the So c iety h a d no t •Ik en in 7orporated- under this Act ; and farther, that nothing herein contained shall be held to invalidate or affect the Deed of Constitution, and Laws and Regulations of the Society, or nay of the powers therein contained, or any of the Bye-Laws or other alterations of the said. Deed of Constitution, made or to 6e made, in virtue of the powers given by the said Deed, except ing always in so far as the seine are expressly altered or varied all be contrary to the true intent and 1 meaning thereof." I can assure Mr. M . '‘Craw that there are no . 1 alterations whatever on the Dee,il of Constitution, except in one or two minor matters, rendered necessary by the extension of the business to England. Indeed, I may say that the only alteration is that on the arbitration clause. By that clause of arbitration, as it stands at present in the Deed of Constitution, every person who may have a disputed claim against the Society is bound to enter into a reference before the Sheriff of Edin.: burgh. This clause would of course be very unsuitable in the ease of Members resident in England. and it was therfore in ttispensable that some alteration should be made upon it in the Act of Parr.-,-- The Bill, accordingly, does not make it ring claims upon the society to go into obligatory on ing to enforce their rights by the ordinary modes ~F is open to all, or to insist on the Society entering into a reference to two parties mutually chosen. If the parties are resident in England, the arbitration may now take place there, instead of forcing them to go before the Sheriff of Edinburgh. This, it , wiI)))e observed, is a provision wholly in favour of the Members ,artatthers, who may have claims on the Society_. In all other rtSpects the Bill confir ms th e p rov i s i ons o f the Deed of Consti tution,, and merely confers on the Society and its Members the lienetits and privileges usually granted to incorporated hich carry on business in Scotland, England, and itLA NE said, I have been unexpectedly called Lne motion approving of the Report, which' has •oposed by Professor More.

The business of Life Insurance is only in its nfancy. Every one of such Institutions just appears to me to Torn) one of our national defences. We have heard a great deal about this of late ; but it appears to me that, as Institutions of this kind spread, every one of them will form a guarantee for the preservation of good order, and for peace and security pre ) ailing here and elsewhere. Certainly were they universal, our pavfil and military establishments might be dispensed with al together. (Hear.) In reference to the Bill which the Directors _omitted, it is well that the question has been put by Air. raw before the approval of the meeting is given.

We announced last week the appointment of Dr. Johia I Graham to the Bieliopric of Chester, and we are now abbr. to supply a few particulars connected with his lordship,. which will be interesting to our readers. Dr. John Graham, who is a native of the city of par ham, is, we believe, about 55 years of age. Like !stay others on the episcopal bench our future bishop bas no high descent to boast of. His father and mother wen persons in humble life, but of great respectability. Jolgt, their only son and child, was a King's scholar in Durham Grammar School, under Dr. Britton; and, from January to October, 1812, he took private lessons in mathematics from Mr. Carr, Dr. Britton's successor in the school, who. had a high opinion of his talents and attainments. :la October, 1812,, Mr. Graham took up his residence. Christ's College, Cambridge, where he graduated aslont 4 th wrangler in 1816.- ..In the same year he obtained a chau cellor's medal. In 1830 he was elected master of his col lege, when he took the degree of Doctor of Divinity. in 1831, and again in;1840, he served the office of Vice-chan cellor. His lordship is a prebendary of Lincoln, and is also chaplain to Prince Albert. He is married to a dauglit:e of the late Bishop Porteus, and has a numerous family . In Nov., 1846, when Dr. Short was translated f the see of Sodor and Man to St. Asaph, Dr. Graham Wirt recommended by the government as Dr. Short's successor to the 'former see, but the appointment was declined 4 Dr. Graham, when the late lamented Archdeacon Shirley was promoted to the bishopric. We believe that Dr. Graham has kept aloof very mnqk from the contending parties in the church, but he is obn ously averse to all . unnecessary innovation. Though in politics he is even more than a Whig, we hope, from 01. we hear, he will be found a conservative of the real is-- terests of the church. His - lordship is of middle height, slender and delicate-looking, and his manners are ex tremely mild and amiable. He has always manifested the utmost anxiety for the promotion of true religion, and is described as an admirable preacher; and there can be no doubt that his lordship is a very effective and graceful public speaker; and though he is not y e t en ti t l e d (b e i ng Junior prelate) to a seat in the House of Peers, he will, f ever he attains that distinguished honour, prove a very powerful debater iil any argument to which he may addr' himself. • With all his attainments, however, it will be no easl task for his lordship to fulfil the , duties of his high posi. tion with the same exemplary diligence, humility ani faithfulness as invariably y characteris e d our re%ere d ant beloved diocesan, who is now worthily exalted to thi primacy of England. (From the Cambriege Chronicle.) Perhaps there is no member of the University who ea joys a higher character for learning and abilities than Di Graham ; and there is none whose character is in ,- generally and deservedly popular. His talents arr questionably of the highest order. He took his of B.A. in the year 1816, when he acquired kr dom equalled, very seldom surpa s s e d, Wrangler in a very distinguished year (the .._ Wranglers were Jacob, Whewell, and Higman),and placed equal with Mr. Lawson, of Magdalene colle the Chancellor's Medal; thus exhibiting equally b attainments in mathematical and classical studie was soon associated in the tuition of 1, -`• he rendered in this office sr - ' when the mastership of the college year 1830, by the resignation of the present _Bishop ol Lincoln, he was unanimously elected to - him.

The respected incumbent of the church has himself borne spontaneous testimony to this fact. "I am persuaded," says he, " that the stove is not in any way the origin of the fire in my churcl?. In this 1 am corroborated by all the practical men I have called in to assist me in forming a judgment. My confi denca in it is as great as before. No opinion whatever can be correctly formed of the cause, as I am persuaded no negligence existed on the part of the church officers." FIRE IN BIREENIIEAD.OII Sunday last, about six o'clock in the evening, the house of Mr. Whitney, Albion street, Grange-lane, Birkenhead, was discovered to be on fire, The family, with the exception of a girl who was asleep up stairs, were all at.church, and the fire was first discovered by the neighbours, who supposed it proceeded. from a chimney. On seeing the flames burst out of the windows, however, they attempted to gain admission .through the shop, but on account of the fire they were unable to do so. At length they effected art entrance through the.back and rescued the poor girl from her peri lous situation. When brought out she was insensible, and appeared to be severely burnt about the neck, far and hands. Before •the engines could arrive, almost whole of the furniture, tirc. was destroyed. The :- the fire is a mystery. DEATH FROM SUPPOSED Four.
