Walsall, October 14, 1843. PROSPECTUS OF PRID WE'S-PARK TONTINE. TRUS TEES, SAMUEL SANDBACH, Esq., CHARLES S. PARKER, Esq HUGH HORNBY, Esq., I JOHN STEWART, JOSEPH LANGTON, Esq., I JAMES MULLENEUX, ESC, THE want of a Park for the recreation of the Inhabi tantsll- of Liverpool, as well as for a healthful place of residence, bas long been felt, especially of late years, when almost every pleasant Suburb of the Town has been encroached upon by mean buildings and narrow and con fined streets. This want will, in some measure. be supplied by the public spirit of RICHARD VAUGHAN YATES, Esq , wk.. has purchased a considerable piece of Land in Toxteth -park, shout 100 statute acres, which is now being laid out as a Park and Pleasure Grounds and Garden, with sites set apart for handsome residences, partly in Terraces and partly in detached Villas. With a view of promoting the above public-spirited de sign, it is proposed to form a Company on the principle of a Tontine. The leading features of the scheme are as follows : That the Tontine shall last for a period cot exceeding thirty years. That the Capital shall not exceed £50,000, divided into transferable Shares of £lOO each ; that £lO shall be paid down at the time of subscribing, and the scheme to be considered formed so soon as £20,000 shall be subscribed ; £lO more on a day to be fixed, and the remainder by in stalments as may be requir , d ; that the money shall be laid out in the erection of Houses, in Terraces or other wise, in the Prince's Park, and the Property be vested in Trustees, all of them members of the Company, and by whom the affairs of the Company shall he directed ; that the Life of each Nominee shall be insured by the Trustees for the sum which his name represents, so that each con tributor shall receive back the amount he has contributed in the event of the failure of the life he has selected. That the age of the nominee shall not exceed twenty- five y,ars That the rents, after payment of all expenses, including, of course, the cost of insurance, shall annually he divided amongst the Proprietors whose nominees shall be then living, in proport.on to their respective Shares, and that at the period fixed for the determination of the Tontine. the whole property shall he sold and converted into mo ney by the Trustees, and the proceeds divided amongst the Proprietors of Shares whose nominees shall be then In all cases the subscribers to the Tontine to have a preference in renting. For the information of those who may not be acquainted with the mode in which the Park is to be laid out and managed, it may be desirable to state, briefly, the most material provisions and stipulations of the deed of con ♦eyance to Mr. Yates, which has been printed for the use of purchasers. 13esides the Land appropriated for Villas and Terraces, part of which, being occupied by Flower Gardens enclosed with open iron railings, will add to the beauty and ap parent extent of the Park. the whole of the interior of the Park, comprising about 45 acres, will be left open and unbuilt upon, and will be laid out and planted in an orna mental manner. With a view to secure this object, the Park, Pleasure Grounds, and Garden, and also the Roads and Drives, are vested in Trsutees for a period of Seventy-five Years, upon trust, to be used for the above purposes only. _ The remainder of the Land, constituting the exterior of the Park, is intended to be sold for the erection of Ter races and Villas, as after mentioned. Mr. Yates binds himself to make and complete the Park, Pleasure Grounds, Plantation, and Garden within five years from the Ist of January. 1843; also, to make the several Roads and Drives laid down upon the Plan, with proper and convenient Main Sewers, and to make Orna mental Entrances, with Gates, and great progress has al ready been made. The Park and Pleasure Grounds and Garden are to be for the use of the Owners and Occupiers of the Houses erected in the Park, subject to the admission of the Public to the Walks and Drives, under proper regula- tions. No Building can be erected on any part of the Land de voted to the Park and Garden, except an Observatory, Museum, Library, &e., or o , her Building for some public purpose, of approved elevation, such Building not to oc cupy more than 5.000 yards. On each Lot of Land sold will be reserved a Ground Rent, not less than a halpenny, and not exceeding 3d per square yard, which is to be made payable to the Trustees for the term of 75 Years. These Rents, when all the Lots are sold, are to amount at least to £l,OOO a-year, and to provide for any de ficiency, so long as a portion of the Rents only are pay able, that is until the whole of the Lots are sold. Mr. Yates binds himself and his Heirs to pay to the Trus tees one half of the deficiency, whatever it may be, until the Reserved Rents shall amount to £l,OOO a year. The Trustees are to permit Mr. Yates to receive the Rents during his life, he keeping the Park in order and repair. After Mr. Yates's death, or on his declining to continue the management of the Park, the Trustees are to receive the Rents, including the deficiency guaranteed by Mr. Yates, if any, and including the Profits arising from let ting the Pasturage, and from letting the Lodges, which Moneys are to be applied by them in maintaing the Park, Gardens, Drives, &c., in good order. The Land appropriated for sale is to be sold subject to restrictions, and in conformity with the Deed of Covenant and Plan. Thus is effectually secured, for a period at least of 75 years, a Park of considerable extent in the immediate vi cinity of Liverpool, with effectual provisions for keeping the same in good order, and free from every species of nuisance. It will be approached on the side nearest the Town by a street of twenty yards wide, now in course of formation, leading in a direct line from the end of Catherine-street, which, with the new streets about being formed over land of the late John Thomas, Esq., and communicating with Hardman-street, will form the handsomest line of streets in Liverpool. The Park has been laid out with great taste by gentle men of the highest eminence in their profession, and though much interior in point of size to the Regent's park in London, possesses greater variety of surface, and commands, from the elevated portions of it, views of the River Mersey, of the Welsh Mountains, and of the Scenery of the Cheshire and Lancashire Coasts, with which no view in the Regent's-park can be compared. The locality, moreover, is such that these views can scarcely be interfered with by any erections which can be made on the Lands of the adjoining Proprietors. The advantages, then, of the proposed Tontine are briefly these : First, from the Locality and from the certainty of the Park being maintained, the houses may be expected to be favoured places of residence, to produce good rents, and to maintain their value. Secondly, the Land is now offered for sale at a very moderate price, being, in fact, at a price formed on a calculation of the first coat of the Land, and the estimated cost of forming the Park, which estimated cost will, there can be little doubt, fall considerably below the actual cost. There is, consequently, every probability, it may almost be said certainty, of the Land rising in value. Thirdly, no proprietor will, un d er an y c i rcums t anc e s , losehis principal, and there is every probability of there being secured to hi m a fair return, i n the shape o f in come, which income will, of course, be increased as the lives drop, whereby the value of the investment will also be increased. The Gentlemen whose names appear at the head of this Prospectus have consented to act as Provisional Trustees; so soon as Two Hundred Shares are taken s Meeting will be held to elect Trustees, and to agree upon the condi tions of the Trust. Applications for Shares to be made, on or before the First day of December next, to Messrs. E DEN and STANISTREET, Solicitors, Royal Bank-buildings, or to any of the Provisional Trustees. 1 1-1.

THE EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY COMPANY having now determined to extend their Line to the North Bridge, and a company being in course of formation from that point to Berwick-on-Tweed, both of which Lines will thus be connected with the Edinburgh, Leith, and Newh;iven Railway, it has been resolved to carry on the branches to Leith and Granton Pier. The Main Line of this Railway, from Scotland -street to Trinity, has been completed and in successful operation all this season. The Drift-way through the Tunnel, by means of which it will be carried into the centre of the city, is nearly finished, and the Tunnel itself may be corn ple.ed within 18 months. • The Branch to Leith secures the great trade of that port. More than 40.000 tons of Goods pass yearl♦ be tween Edinburgh and Glasgow, by way of the Railway and the two Canals ; and upwards of 200,000 tons, exclusive of coals, between Edinburgh and Leith, which the greatly reduced cost of carriage, as compared with the rates of cartage, insures to the Railway. The number of passengers between Edinburgh and Leith, by coach, exceeds 400,000 yearly. The passenger-traffic between Edinburgh Granton, and Newhaven, also exceeds 400,000, and the Newhaven Railway is besides conveying at the rate of 150,000 yearly. _ . In 'consequence of the extension of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, its junction with this Line, and the reduced cost of carriage, all Goods coming from, and to. the West of Scotland, will unquestionably pass along this Rilway arid Branches. The necessary consequence will be a large increase of traffic, particularly in Iron and Coals in the Leith export trade; and Leith would add at least 50,000 tons yearly to this trade i n th ese b ranc h es alone.

At the septennial division in December, 1835, a Bonus of £26 7s. 101. upon the nret»ium , paid was deckred amongst the Insurers on the high Scale, and at thet , econd sexennial division up to December, 18 , 41, another Bonus was d:-dared, averaging £3O I.ls. per Cent. on the Pre miums paid. Insur - ances for one and seven years effected at very re- dated rates One-third of the Premiums on Insurances for the Whole of Life is permitted to remain unpaid for the firs: seven years, and is then continued as a permanent loan it de sired. Persons going to any part of the world and all special risks are insured at adequate premiums. The Company's Policies are purchased at their full value. Claims are paid in three months after satisfactory proof of death. Tables of Rates, with every information, will be given by the undernarned Agents. ing Director OPINIONS OF THE PRESS " This work, a TgNTFI Edition of which is now pre sented to the public—ten thousand copies have been ex hausted since its first appearance—has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the inser tion of several new and highly interesting cases. The numberless instances daily occurring, wherein affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of con sumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful habits, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour is no where more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying', that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergy man."—Sun. " Messrs. Curtis's work, called MANHOOD, is one of the few books now coming before the public on such a subject, which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully in telligible to all who read it. The moral and medical pre cepts given in it, render it invaluable."--Magnet. " The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book, entitled MAN HOOD, has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is percep tible to every capacity."—Ape. " This is a work that we fear there exists too much need for, to cause us to hesitate to recommend it for ge neral perusal. Every branch of those frightful maladies, whether the result of immoral habits or secret vices, is here succinctly treated, and, divested of all medical tech nicality, plain and easy directions are given for the best mode to be pursued in all cases, however complicated or apparently hopeless. To the married, as well as the un married, this little work alike affords consolation and cure in peculiar cases, and we are doing service to society in recommending it to general notice."—Essex and Herts Mercury. " The scientific views taken by the authors, of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced surgeons ; and the result of our careful perusal of the work has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those intrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir."—Old England.

THE Principles of this Society are those of Mutest Assurance, or, as it has been more properly termed, Mutual Contribution. The Members are their own As surers. They are the Proprietors—the Sole Parties in terested i❑ the Funds—and, although by the Articles of Constitution, no Member is pereon-dly responsible for any Sum of Money beyond the Contribution conditioned to be paid by him in his Policy, the stability of the Society is amply provided for and secured by the salute' y Regula tion,—That at each Period of Investigation, one-third of the ascertained Profits shall be set aside and retained as a Guarantee Fund. PRACTICE OF THE SOCIETY Whilst this Society owes very much unquestionably NI the Equity of the Rules and Principles upon which it has been Eslablished, some share of its Popularity is attri butable to the manner in which these li ules and Principles ere practically carried out. The Tables and Calculations are all founded upon data which the long and successful experience of the Equitat 1. Society of London has shown may confidently be relic d upon as safe. Although almost universally practised by other Offices, and although it unquestionably adds considerably to their Business, the System of Bribing Parties unconnected with their Office, by the offer of a Commission on all Business introduced through their medium or influence, is not countenanced by this Soc ety. The Directors have al ways looked upon it as a practice which, for many reasons, is equally to be deprecated in the Company or Society offering, and in the party accepting the bribe. One of the great characteristics of the Society is the li beral, punctual, and simple manner in which the Claims are settled, combined with the very great care bestowed by the Directors (with the advice and assistance of the Medical Officers) in the Selection of Lives. Instead of afforuing every facility to parties to join the Society, and afterwards throwing all manner of unnecessary obstacles in the way of settlement, when the claim emerges, the Directors proceed upon the opposite principle of being most cautious and particular in their inquiries before ad mitting Members to the Benefits of the Society; but, after being admitted, they are entitled to all the advantages which the Society affords; and when the claim emerges, no undue delay takes place, and no difficulties which can be avoided are interposed to prevent an easy and expedi tious settlement. The utmost care is bestowed upon the Investment and. Accumulation of the Funds ; many advantageous oppor tunities, which are not open to others, being afforded t• this Society, in the large Amount of its Capital, and its rapidly increasirg Annual Revenue. Forms of Proposal, and all fierther information, may le had on application at the Head Office, or at any of the Society's Agencies. JOHN 'MACKENZIE, Manager 5, St. Andrew-square, Edinburgh.

THE superior advantages to those Assured with this Society will be best understood by a comparison of its principles and a reference to the last Annual Bonus declared on Policies of five years' standing, at the Society's Meeting on the 10th of May. 1843. The report exhibited a steady increase in its business, and a Bonus was then declared, varying from 97 to 36 per cent. on Premiums, as an addition to the Policy-13 per cent. in cash, or IS per cent. permanent reduction on all future premiums.
