SUBSCRIBED CAPITAL, .i 3500,000, This Office was Established in 1841, and possesses tables formed on a scientific bass for the assurance of diseased lives. The urgent necessity for such 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 mium for Disease deduced from extensive data.

THE necessity for an extensive Saw Mill in so rising and improving a place as Birkenhead, is too obvious to re quire any remarks with a v iew io procure its fay° irable receptioA with the Public; and in consequence of th B rkenluad Bock Company having required the Land upon which the only Ms in Birkenhead was lately standing, that necessity is more than ever severely felt. It may, however, be proper to remark that a more seasonable opportunity than the present for the forma tion of Company to carry on the business of a Saw Mill can never be pr<sented. The intended Railway from the Docks to the Chester Line, which is expected to be completed in about a. month, will still further promote the prosperity of the Com pany, by opening an extended communication with North Wales, Chester, and the Midland Counties. An advantageous site for the e7ection of the necessary build ings can be procured on very moderate terms. It is proposed to raise a capital of .z'lo,ooo by 500 Shares of, £2O each, and that no one p erson shall hold more than. 26" Shares. Applications for Flores to be made to Messrs.

W E respectfully announce that we have OPENED . THE PREMISES, JAMES'S BUILDINGS, LIME STREET, for the purpose of carrying on an extensive R ea d y - Money Trade in TEAS an d COFFE ES. - The Traffic in Tea, an article grown almost exclusively in one district of Asia, and in a country comparatively isolated from Western Nations, affords one of the. most remarkable illustrations of the energy and enterprise of modern commerce. The trade now regularly employs 60,009 tons of first-class British spipping, and annually contributes £5,000,000 stirling to the Exchequer. The total cost of the article to this country.. is estimated at about :C10,000,000 annually. In the hands of our Merchants in China it is the great article of barter, which enables them to dispose of the productions of our manufac turing industry, which are taken in exchange for it by the Chinese. • A trade of such magnitude, involving interests so impo r t an t, connected so intimately w ith the social habits of the commu nity and with the domestic economy of every family, renders the price and quality of the article supplied an object of para mount consideraticn to all consumers. The employment of ample resources, both in the possession of adequate capital and the acquirement of extensive experience in the first mercantile houses connected with the trade, en courage us to anticipate th a t t h e advantages we are thus enabled to Word will be appreciated by the public at large. We deem it needless to indulge in professions of unprecedented cheapness and exclusive advantages, in the conviction that the judgment of Those who may favour us with their support will be the best security for the continuance of their favours. Our prices, according to the present currency of the market, are as follow: BLACK TEAS. S. D.
