There is generally so much difficulty, experienced in the intro duction of any novelty, however valuable, especially in Medicine or Surgery, and that difficulty is so.mxtch enhanced if the inven tion militates against preconceived ideas, and old-established and cherished modes of practice, that it is thought desirable to pub lish some of the Testimonials received in favour of the Patent Apparatus from some of the many persons who have experienced its benefits. The following are some of the most eminent medical men to whom the Chair and Fulcrum have been shown, which has met with their entire approbation; some of them have also been patients, and to them the reader can be more particularly re ferred : Sir B.

BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP, which heretofore has been difficult to be obtained, as '427 few of the grocers will keep it. To use their own words, by way of explanation; they state,—" Were we to buy it, it would reduhe our sales fully oue third, as two pounds of the Empire Soap.Wiil go as far as three pounds of any other soap ; we should also Jose our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these articles are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either. Ole hardest water or in sea water." What the grocers are displensed at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses, &c. Il only requires to be used with a light hand. And besides the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consNuently less friction and wear in the clothes, and will not' injure the colours in the most delicate prints ; and is equally valuable for every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it is a pure soap, free from rosin and other useless ingredients, which mot only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its cleansing properties.

EDWARD ROBINSON, See* LOCAL MANAGER FOR LIVERPOOL: R. R. HUTCHINSON, Esq., 9, Eden Chambers, South JOhniireet, INDISPITTABILITY THE ONLY COMPLETE SECURITY IN LIFE ASSURANCE. (Extracted from " The Register.") What is meant by an indisputable policy? In the first pl ac t,t is unlike other policies ; the adjective being used to imply 5 °"1;. thing to mark and distinguish such a policy from all other PL, des. In the second place, it means much more—it implies toot the policy to which the epithet " Indisputable" is given c awn „ ° ( be disputed, except upon grounds beyond the reach and po wer sc the contracting parties to control. In other words, the policY represented as being as indisputable as man can make it. Nothing can be more embarrassing than the situation of fo r t i e who, after making payments to an Insurance Company for 1 e ,7 twelve, or twenty years, on the supposition that by such F. 4.,; ments ' be has purchased for his family the absolute properil is reversionary estate, is then told that at his death his survir°,., may receive such property, but that there is a great chance- IP4t sibility—amounting to a probability, that they may not ; Roo t " the contingency depends upon circumstances which he can9c l ) ., foresee. Yet such is the position of those who are held as wh e ,, i , responsible for the precise and literal accuracy of every statertlF:„ in numerous documents and schedules which precede the issu. e 7, of a policy. Take one of these schedules as an instance of sv o f meats, upon the accuracy of each of which the whole valtiet, the policy will ultimately be made to depend :—"I do berici.A declare that my age does not exceed years; that I hav e 10 ot cow-pox or small-pox (state which); that I have (or have n) . 0 the gout; that I have not been afflicted with any fit or fits,,j convulsions, nor with asthma, insanity, or spitting of bloo d that I am not afflicted with habitual cough, diseases of the Int l. ! norwith any other disease or disorder tending to shorten uoi and that the foregoing proposal contains a true staterce t . n o every matter and thing thereby required to be set forth ; and 1 ",,. I am now in good health ; and I do declare that I have not c 0.., tooled or withheld any matter or circumstance touching tnYro or present state of health, habits of life, or condition which ' o t Tender an insurance on my life more than usually hazardoti%,,, with , which the Directors of this society ought to be mad e, ' t p, quainted; and that my private referees are well acquainted 10_, and fatly competent to give, the requisite information as to habits of life: And Ido declare that this declaration shall be w t basis of the contract between me and the said society; an d ,co if any true allegation or statement be contained in the said be posal, or in this declaration, or if any material informatiq i o omitted which ought to be contained therein, all moneys w.," t o f shall have beer: or shall be paid to the said society, on accOu" t y, such insurance, shall be forfeited to the use of the saidso cie and the policy beabsolutely null and void." me j, Now, looking at the wording oft his clause, it may be aior: n on without much exaggeration, that there is no human being "4 - scl earth who, looking on it as the literal condition of his coll'• li ii with a company, can possess a certainty that the event e d in death will place his family in possession of the sum specis e „ 0 , the agreement. It is ir professional notoriety that there sr e „r e r merous diseases which may be in active play long before th e ' t ie istence is suspected by The patient or any one eise. Yet, by contrivance of making the proposer warratir the literal aecte of numerous statements, the clause above quoted would v;f o e and nullify the policy, if it could•be proved that the invisibl e : , n s had commenced his ravages - at the period when the instiro was issued. The responsibilitysof the party effecting the 9 , y ance is unconditiona, and wholly. irrespective of the oontiPgf. e rs whether the "omission" of any fact, material or immaterial, wilful or not. dee. ° The person who makes the• statement must not 00lf tb that he makes no wilful mis-statement—that he has not " / i r e held any matter or circumstance," and observe, notdelibera te fe of design, but that he has not done so at all. The declarat io p;gr qpired is absolute as to circumstanceror possibilities beyond la: sphere of human knowledge; and the responsibily of the oy o t , rant is equally absolute, no matter' howinnocently he M a r • been led into error. MI the authorities are of the same opinion as to the sole and, : o g: divided responsibility of the assured: Thus, Lord Eldon'w ll hear - of any distinction as to whetherian omission has neeV ° t terial or immaterial. "If material," his-Lordship observes; , r ` sa a a materiality may be inquired into and shown ; but if thereft 0 warranty, it is part of the contract that the matter is suclr represented to be; therefore materiality.or isimaterialiO ti Yinioa nothing- The only question is as to the--raere fact." This has been affirmed, to the total ruin of families, by tanner° sionsof the Courts. bello It may perhaps be supposed that however close eave narrow- the meshes which are entwined round the r,i „ wnortan t life is the subject of assurance — however minute WV etlo , and liable - to error enc ,aws a ri r eot e hf l t oit l eiu t i e ten f adl a ae c t yoe t I s ra , fber a eai n ttau d i boryineee o t hf s e t h r itn :g a t ed n . l it i l_ pi c : ohn n e e t t v ollt he. e ': o my t ea : n a t w dh , • a a at th e r nh e ay esca e t aa e l i: c b a e n fo n r o e t h d e e ; he f c o ome r there entitled i t to 9 01 1)/Y'" p o t that elic et more demo% . w hicn racy ivof no avail..

It is not merely to be found In a ..„' on spectus-or, °then-circular, which may or may not be obligat°',4o- the Company,,. according to circumstances,, but it forms ponent part of the-existence of the corps.rate body. A M ere to mise.of indisputability is not enough- Such a,cleause as the a r e , is required to. give- legal efficacy. It appears to have beer cav fully, and anxiously prepared, for the purpose of cutting, t o every grouad and pretext of dispute-as to the validity 0 ' ..;et. Policy.;.and.w.e- confess that we cannot find any worthror se', o l t " of. sentences. more operative, effective, or compulsory fP t , pprpose.. In. order the more effectually. to show thi s , f oe would minute oar readers to compare this clause with 'et law as. laid, down by Sergeant Marshall in the pals i d ir already. quoted from that learned authority. The ' l ° D ill putable clause says—" Every policyL,issued lay the CoinpanY 'off be indefeasible and indisputable, and the fact of issuing the igr. shall be conclusive evidence of the validity of the policy." _die Sergeant Mazsball, speaking of the..clause ordinarily insert7,,ith policies,. says, " It is quite immaterial for what p ur p ose or w e be .what view it [a warrant] is made„; .but bet • d / 0• ug once inserte 0 0 policy„ it becomes a binding mujition on the assured, and o he can show that it has been ,complied with, he can derive ° benefit from the policy." In other words, an indisputable P° when once issued, declares that, de facto, all precedent questila are held to have been finally..settled, whereas an ordinary P oi ,. to declares on the face of it that-the Directors retain the poste' i ty • keep rte a questions ocemte dispute, until they have Rai,. paid the amount of the policy to the executors. Again, the 10 t o patable clause says, " It shatl not be lawtul for the CompfleY_,, delay payment of the moaey.assured, on the ground of any er rU 4 mistake, or omission, however -important, made by or on. the P 5,4 of the person or persons-effecting such insurance." Mr.,Serge a _7.. Marshall, on the other hand, says, "The very meaning of a we,, rarity is to preclude allqeestion whether it has been suhstan tia ! 2 l complied with or not. Whether the thing warranted was matenrco'e. or not, whether the breach of it proceeded from fraud, neglig s e ar pe mis-information, or any other cause, the consequence is P e ots ble —i.e, the policy is void." In the next place, the indl s hall clause says that, *Lon the Gontrary, the amount so ii errOr, be paid at the time- stipulated by the policy, as if na Ser mistake, or omission, had been made or discovered.!" j3ype geant Marshall says, "The warranty makes the contract lied thetical ; that is„,it shall be binding if the warreolYis c °7°P ,Atict with. The qpestion is, has the thing warranted taken ',sea or not? If not, the asaurer is not answerable for,anY 1055 ' e ar• though it did not. happen in consequence of the taleaels of W oof of ranty." Can, anything he more conclusive than this. in Pc.,tstde the superiority, of the Indisputable Policy? %he in d „ l , s l7;ives Policy settles. all precedent_questions—an ordinal,/ po l i c y them all unsettled. An Indisputable Policy declares, by t h e 05t fact of its Calle, that all questions relating to the health, °3-ecl, age, &c., of the assured are, as far as the Company is canceroats set at rest for ever—an ordinary policy leaves . these P,° l open to dispute, until the claim has actually been discharg e d ' I • London Indisputable Life Policy Company.„72, Lorabard-s tree —Manager, ALVaANDER ROBERTSON.
