Three-fourths of the profits are now divided among those Assured on an equitable scale, for the whole term of life after Policies shall have been in force four years, and eventually the whole of the profits will be so divided. Endowments for' Children are granted, and Assurances on Joint Lives, Survivorships, Survivorship Annuities, as well as every species of Life covingency. at rates proportional to the nature of the risks, which are as low as possible compatible with security to the Assured. Assurances are also effected, either by paying small Premiums at first, and increasing, them every five years; or by paying a high Premium at first, subject to periodical abatements, and ultimately the payments to cease altogether. In fine, persons may be assured in any way which may be best adapted to their circumstances or wishes. Medical Referees are appointed in most cities and large towns, and agents in many, from whom information may be obtained and Prospectuses had. By order of the Board of Directors, T. 0.

(then Un known to the annals of medical discoveries,) as a specific reme dy to exterminate (runs the system, that intruder on the plea sures frequently imbibed in moments of inebriation, or thought lessness : never did a discovery excite a greater sensation, it was sought after with avidity, and used with undeviating success in the most minute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint, for the cure of which, they have been so long cele brated. The fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their speedy introduction into almost every country, and ad dresses were presented to the talented Professor Swedour who filled the chair at Leyden University, congratulatory of the cir cumstance. The certainty with which they were continually administered, can be attested by many thousands, in fact during the long continental war they were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infection was entertained. What Medicine can be more appropriate than that which has given such general satis faction. The Hy can Pills root out every particle of the insid uous poison, purifying in their progressthe wholemass of fluids, they not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action the different functions of the body—expelling the grosser hu mours and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to con vince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers, they neither contain mercury or any other mineral, and may be taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery—. they require no restraint of diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business. The Hygean Pills maybe depended upon as a cer tain cure by persons of either sex, in all stages of a certain dis ease, and that without producing the least inconvenience. At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well to have recourse to the Hygean Pills, for when taken be fore the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain preventive, removing . the complaint effectually and secretly. l'he deplorable state in which many persons five been when visiting the proprietor from the use of mercury, renders it im peratively necessary to caution the public against that danger ous mineral when injudiciously administered.

The lengths of the Principal Streets are also stated in yards, for the purpose of calculating Cartaaes, Coach Fares, &c.; in fact, neither exertion nor ex pense have been spared to render the Work of the greatest pub lic utility and interest. . . The extraordinary encomiums which have been published with regard to the met it of this Work would seem to render any other commendatory notice quite superfluous. The following testimonial, however, from the high and distinguished authority of Olinthus Gregory, L.L.D. F.R.A.S., and Professor of Ma thematics in the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich, will, it is presumed, prove as satisfactory to the public as it is gratifying to the projector. " I had opportunities of inspecting various portions of Mr. Gage's Plan of the Town, Port, and Vicinity of Liverpool, du ring its progress; and have now the pleasure of examining it since its completion. Both as an interesting and valuable result of the application of scientific principles, and as a beautiful work of art, it may be unhesitatingly characterised as altogether unique. Mr . Gage will doubtless be amply rewarded by the public for this extraordinary specimen of his talents, accuracy, and perseverance. " OLINTHUS GREGORY." "Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, April 6, 1836."

The increasin4 demand for knowledge, and the increasing necessity for it, render any apology for the present under:eking Superfluous. It may, however, be necessary to say, that T TAN JOURN AI. will be conaucted on a princip from that of the other cheap Literature. It will not (except in such instances a ay seem advantage. ous to the reader and to the plan of th undertaking) indulge in plundering from the hives of others and pirating extensive and laborious works, but will chiefly be supported by the un bought and original efforts of the gentleman who has volunteered his services. Our ohject is universal—it is for the good of mankind—for the diffusion of the light of knowledge and truth into the most remote districts—for the enlargement and refinement of the human heart and mind. THE METROPOLITAN JOURNAL Will be careful in its attention to valuable works; the interests of Literature will at all times be strenuously defended; Author and Publisher will alike find in it a fitm and earnest friend; and merit, wherever found, and in whatever garb, shall be cherished by the light of its coun tenance. Great attention will be paid to the Poetical, Dramatic, and Musical Departments—interesting letters on foreign countries are in course of publication—original essays on interesting sub jects—biographies of eminent individuals—notices -of London and ins neighbourhood—sketches of the varying circumstances or the day—political reminiscences—and other articles of value and intererst will appear as we proceed. In fact, whatever can be done for the advantage of the public shall be attended to by the Editor; and, as a considerable pro perty is embarked in THE METROPOLITAN JOURNAT., and its object is not the profit of the Proprietor, but the advantage of the leader, no expense nor labour will be spared in the accom plishment of the general good.

SPERM OIL has long been efferienced by the Merchants, Shipowners, and C o n s u mers o f L: erpool, Manchester, and the Neighbouring Districts, the wa4lof such having almost entirely prevented the Importation of this article as a return fur Ship ments made from this Port to New South Wales. Hitherto, consequently, such cargoes as have been imported were of necessity reshipped to London, to be there Refined, and afterwards returned to this county to be consumed, burthened with those almost incalculable additional expenses which it is the object of the present Establishment to remove. hel consumption of Sperm Oil may even yet be considered in its infancy, although it has increased very considerably within the last seven years, and has been generally adopted as a substi tute for other Oils for the purposesof 'Machinery, thus rendering it a most valuable article of Importation to the Merchant and Shipowner. The vicinity of Liverpool to the principal manufacturing towns, and the great and growin g intercourse between this Port and New Soath Wales, whi c h, by the establishment of the Company, will be.maierially increased, pint out the neccessity and legitimate right of the iown to this very lucrative trade. To the Merchant and Shipowner this 'Company secures a ready markei for an article they have hitherto been debarred importing, or, having imported it, have been compelled to sub mit to a sacrifice by sending it to London to a few merchants there who have enjoyed the monopoly, To the consumer and dealer the advantages will at once pre sent themselves, the saving of Freight, the locality of the Manu facture, the purity of the Oil, and the reduced price at which it can be afforded. It is intended, at the same time, to add the BLEACHING of Wax, and the manufacture of WAX, SPERMACETI, and Cost- POSITION CANDLE S , as a necessity Branch of the Refining of SPERM OIL with the Bleaching of the SPERMACETI, thus securing a considerable additional profit, and making the Esta blishment complete in all its branches. It is proposed that the capital of this company shall be £150,000, in 15,000 Shares of £lO each; no Shareholder to hull less than ten Shares. That the affairs of this Company shall be managed by a Board of Directors, who shall be holders of at least fifty Shares each. The sum of one shilling per share shall be paid on an allot ment to defray the expenses incidental to the formation of the Company, and a. further sum of £1 per share within 14 days after the appointment of Directors, and all further calls will be made as the Directors may deem requisite.

Liverpool, April 23d, 1836. PROSPECT US. TONTINE OF THE UPPER ARCADE, IN THE CITY OF BRISTOL. CAPITAL, £16,000, IN 160 SHARES OF £lOO Ea c " - rinH E Propriet ors h ave reso l ve d to di spose of t • whole of .1_ this valuable and eligible property, by way I'ontine. The Upper Arcade consists of thirty-via- Messuages or Dwelling-houses and Shops, erected in the ear 1825, upon an elegant and uniform elevation, according • the plans, and un der the immediate superintendence of e rent architects. No expense has been spared to r: this Superb Building, in every respect, substantial and c. # odious. It possesses not only the conveniences of private res Bence; but, as an eligible and much frequented line of communication between the cen tral parts of the city, and the populous and improving districts of Kingsdown, Montpelier, and St. Paul's, it presents great ad vantages for business. The tenure (except as to a small portion held for a term of one thousand years, but Without any ground rent) is Freehold of Inheritance, and without incumbrante of any ki n d, no t except ing the Land Tax, the whole of which is redeemed. The pre sent rental, though at present much depressed, and far below its real value, exceeds £l,OOO per annum, clear of all out goings; and when vested in a large body of proprietors, and under the management of a committee, to be chosen by them, there can be no doubt that the property will materially and rapidly improve in v a l ue . It is now to be disposed of for a sum not ouly considerably below cost price, but much less than its intrinsic value, for the purpose of facilitating certain family arrangements. The principle of Tontine, which is that of joint ownership, with Lime& of survivorship, is capable of being variously modi fied. In the present instance, the following is thentan proposed. Ist. The capital, or purchase money, is £16,000, to consist of one hundred and sixty shares of £lOO each. 2nd. Every shareholder will nominate one life for each share purchased, and will be intit led, in the first instance, in respect of every such share, to an equal undivided 160th part of the property, and to a similar share of the net yearly rents and profits, during the life so named. But as the lives successively drop, the .shares of the survivors will proportionably increase in value and consequently in yearly 'darns. Thus, supposing the sum to be divided yearly to be £1,009, (which is taking the rental at even less than its present depressed amount) and all the lives to he in existence, still, even in that ease, each share will pay £6 ss. per annum (being a return of 'upwards of six per cent., and that, too, under the most disadvantageous cir cumstances): when the number of lives is reduced to one hundred and twenty, each share, even at the above rental, will produce £8 6s. Bd. per annum; when to fifty, £2O per annum: when to twenty, £5O per annum, and soon. But as the Property improves in value (as no doubt it will underlite proposed change of proprietorship) and, consequently, a s the amount o f rental increases, not on ywill the value of each abate propor tionably improve, but also the yearly returns thereon; and this whether the whole number of lives be in existence or not, and independently of any increase in value which must, of necessity, arise from the dropping of lives. And as every shareholder will have an insurable interest in the life of Iris nominee, he may secure his capital from risk by insuring accordingly, and at the same time, and after payment of the premium, realize an annual return for hismoney beyond that which can be obtained either in the public funds or upon mortgage. 3d. When the number of lives shall have been reduced to five, the whole of the property to be conveyed absolutely to, or ' for the benefit of, the proprietors for the time being, of the shares which shall be holden upon such five surviving lives, in such proportions as shall correspond with the number of shares belonging to each of such ultimate proprietors. 4th. A deposit. of £5 to be paid upon each share at the time of subscribing; the remainder of the purchase money to be paid upon the execution of the conveyance, as after mentioned. But in the event of the whole number of shares not having been taken on or before the 24th day of J una next, t h en the sub scriptions to be void, and the deposits to be returned without any deduction of any kind whatever. sth. When the whole number of shares shall have been taken, a meeting of the shareholders to b e convene d ( o f w hi c h 'hoe week's notice, in writing, shall be left at the usual place of residence, or of business, of each shareholder). At which meeting, a Committee of Management shall be appointed, who shall be empowered to take all proper measures for investi gating, and, if sa tisfied, accepting the title o f the v en d ors, an d for preparing the conveyance; and to appoi n t a ti me r or nomi nating trustees, and comp l eting the purchase: such time to be within three calendar months from and after the appointment of the committee : each shareholder to have one vote in respect of every share held by , him, and to be entitled to vote at such meeting either personally or by proxy. 6th. On the day so to be appointed for the purpose, the Com mittee of Management shall convene a inee lug of the share holders, by like notice as aforesaid; and the shareholders then present, shall proceed to choose five persons from among them selves, whose names shall be inserted in the Deeds of Convey ance, as Trustees for the purchasers : and the purchase shall then be completed, by execution of the deeds, and payment of the residue of the purchase money for the respective shares. But in case any shareholder, having had due notice of such meeting as aforesaid, shall make default in payment of his pur chase money, his share or shares and deposit money, shall be forfeited; and such meeting shall, if necessary, be adjourned for the purpose of disposing of such forfeited share or shares. Provided that it shall be competent to such committee, or a majority of their number, at any time before the completion of the said purchase, by notice as aforesaid, to convene a meeting of the shareholders, for the purpose of obtaining fresh instruc tions and powers. 7th. Prior to the completion of the purchase, the decision, by the votes of a majority, to be taken as before mentioned, of any meeting of the shareholders. convened as aforesaid, shall be binding on all shareholders, whether present or absent. Bth. All outgoings to be paid, and rents received, by the ven dors to the time of completion of the purchase. All costs of conveyance, and incidental expences of carrying this Tontine into effect up the time of the completion of the purchase, to be paid by the vendors. 9th. Subject to the approval or correction of any such pre liminary meeting as aforesaid, the conveyance in trust for the purchasers shall contain provision s to the following effect, viz. For vesting the property in the trustees, for the proprietors jointly, with benefit of survivorship, until the number of lives upon which the shares shall be-held, shall be, reduced to five, and to be then conveyed to or for the benefit of the proprie tors, for the time being, of the shares which shall be holden upon such surviving lives, in proportions and manner afore said. For the yearly election by the proprietors, of a Committee of Management, with proper powers for letting, repairing,*. protecting, lighting, c l eans i ng, insuring- from loss by tire, and generally, superintending and managing the said property on behalf of the proprietors. For the due and regular keeping, making up, balancing, auditing, and passing of the accounts of all receipts and pay. ments on behalf of the proprietors. For the yearly division on the net rents and profits among the proprietors, according to their respective shares. A power for the proprietors, at any yearly meeting, after due notice of a motion to that effect, to alter and amend all or any of the trusts or provisions contained in such convey ance in trust, or subsisting for the tune being, by virtue of the resolutions of any past meeting of proprietors. A proper provision for investigating, and determining any doubts or questions that may arise, touching the existence of any life or lives, or the claims, interests, or liabilities, of any person or persons in respect of any share or shares in the said property. Proper powers for the choice from time to time, when necessary, of new trustees, and for the protection and reim bursement of the trustees in the execution of their office, together with all such other powers, provisoes, conditions, and agreements, as by such meeting of proprietors so to be con vened as last aforesaid, should be deemed necessary or proper. The scheme above submitted will ap seen to present every possible advantage. The capital to will advanced will be abso lutely limited to the price of the shares; there not being, as in other tontines, any liabilities to future or contingent expenses of building. 14• e. As the annual return will, from the first, afford the expense of life insurance, in addition to full interest, NO RISK OF CAPITAL NEED BE INCURRED. It is manifest, there fore, that there is no danger of the value of the shares ever sinking BELOW PAR, while to the s'iareholders the lives of whose nominees are prolonged, the value will progressively increase, until the ultimate division.

CONNECTING the County_uf FIFE with the Counties on the North side of the TA Y, un the one hand, end those on the South side of the FORTH ontbent - her, - thus forming a link of upiou between th e F err i es an the Forth and the Tay, by con- aft fleeting the Dundee and Newtyle Railway , with its branches to Cuparand Glanamis, the Dund e e Forfar, aniAr oath R a ilways, present before Parliament, and at their lute ed extension or k them to Kirriemui r , Brechin and Mon ! rfis as well as th e p re - "" posed Railway from Dundee to Perth, w e great Railways on the South of the Forth, particularly the ' inburgh and Glasgow Railway—the Edinburgh, Haddington, nd Dunbar Railway-- the Edinburgh, Leith, and Newhaven Railway, and the Edin burgh, Dalkeith, and Leith Railway; and being a branch front the great Trunk Railway proposed co be extended from London by York to the Scottish metropolis. The advantages of a Railway connecting together districts o the country so very populous and advancing, and passing through a highly cultivated line, fertile in its agricultural, and abounding in its mineral productions, are too apparent to require to be commented on,__ ~lndeeu it is difficult to select a portion of country of equal ex tent in the kingdom, which presents so many facilities and ad vantages for a railway communication as the country betwixt the Fife and Tay ferries. The intercour,e between Fite and the Lothians on the south, and Forfarshire on the north, is even at present very great; and some idea o f th eex t en t o f th e i ncreas ed communication may be formed, when it is considered that doting the year 1835 there were upwards 0 . 75,000 passengers between Newhaven and Burntisland, Pettycur, and Kirkaldy, and up- . wards 3-1,000 between Newhaven, Dundee, and Aberdeen, &c- The quantity of goods which would be cart ied along a railway connecting the two ferries would be very considerable. T he manufactures of Dundee and of the other towns on the lines of the railway on the north, would be brought to the markets in the south in a cheap and speedy manner; and the articles of commerce sent from the south being carried at a comparatively cheap rate would find a ready market in the populous and flou rishitig towns of D un d ee an d P ert h . Looking at the internal resources of the county of Fife alone, abounding as it does in coal and limestone, a very considerable traffic might fairly be expected, when the want of these articles , on the north of the Tay is considered. 'There are at present imported into Dundee about 300,000 tons of Scotch coals wino ally. If a cheap and speedy communication by a railway through the coal district of Fite was formed, the greater pint of this large quantity might be fairly calculated upon as liars of the railway traffic. There are likewise upward of 100,000 bolts of lime im ported into the ports of Perth and Dundee, besides importations into the intermediate ports. Impressed with a consideration of the great advantages to the country at large, which the formation of a railway between the Fife and Tay terries would produce, it has been resolved by as number of gentlement to endeavour to carry it into effect, and that as promply, economically, and beneficially for the share holders and the public as its great accessibilities will admit. THE LINE. The two termini of the line are proposed to be Port on Craig or Newport on the north, and Burntisland, or wherever the pro posed low water pier shall be erected, on the south. In regard to its intermediate direction, the line which shall be ascertained to be most advantageous, on the report of eminent engineers, will be adopted. THE EXPENSE. The distance between the extremities of the line will be about thirty-two miles, and when respect is paid to .the recent great improvements in the formation of Itailways , it is expected that the costs will beless than 1.:10,000 a mile, but it has been deemed expedient to have a capital to the extent of this rate, being £320,000, by which means a steady and sure progression and completion of the work may be relied on. THE PROFIT. Considering that the county of Forfar is internally destitute of, and that Fife abounds in coal, and considering the facilities which would be given to the ports of Kirkaldy or Dundee for exporting, the agricultural, and mineral. and manufacturing productions of the county of Fife, a very great source of revenue would be thence derived. Its passengers, however, the greatest reliance for a revenue may be placed. The number of passengers at present is «p' wards of 90,000, annually, exclusive of those travelling farther north, and who would also avail themselv es o f th e railway through Fife. But say that the increase of passengers was onlyto the extent of one half o f thi s gross nu mb er , or 135,01" throughout the line, and , early as many for intermediate dis tances, but say altogether 250,000 passengers for various dis tances, this would yield yearly Goods, consisting of ( oal, lime, grain, flax yarn, &c. &c., carried along the railway, at least.... 18,000 0 0 453,250 0 Deduct expense of maintenance, and manage ment, conveyance, &c 17,750 0 _~-- 35,500 ° Yielding a profit of upwards of 11 p er cen t, annua ll y o n th e capital stock. 1.
