Adam Newman Meade, Esq., Cork. THIS undertaking is projected sy,th the support of the most influential Land-owners and Merchants along the Line, and is intended to afford the towns of Douglas, Passage, Monkstown, Carrigaline, and Kinsale, the its, portant advantages of Railway communication with the city of Cork. The dist►ict for eight or ten miles south of Cork is thickly populated by the better classes of society ; and the delightful watering-places of Passage and Monkstown are amongst the best and most respectably frequented in Ire land. There are in the course of erection numerous vil las and dwellings in the neighbourhood ; and the lieport of the Irish Railway Commis.ioners, published in 1837, states, that in traffic and returns, a line of Railway be tween Cork and Passage will greatly resemble the Dublin and Kingstown Railway. The extensive fisheries of Kinsale, and its connections will the city of Cork, and its advantages as a watering place, render it of the highest importance to increase fa cility of communication, and more esr.ecially as the pro jected Railways to the inland districts north of Cork will make the town of Kinsale easy of access to the inhabi tants t , f those parts. The district over which this Line will pass has been sum yed, and been found to afford levels giving great fa cilities for a Ralway. The Preliminary Surveys are com pleted ; they show that the Line may be constructed at a moderate outlay, and will, when made, allow of travelling at the highest rates of peed. The city of Cork and its suberbs contain a population of 166,055 persons, and the town of Kinsale 7000 per sons. The towns of Passage and Monkstown together con tain a population of 2,259 persons. The other towns and parishes through which the Line passes (exclusive of the population of the before-mentioned towns) conta'n 22.570 souls. The peninsula formed by the Carrigaline River and Oyster Haven. the only frequented road from any part of which now lies by Carrigaline, contains a po pulation of 11 556 persons. Large quantities of limestone from the quarries of Car riga:ine, sea-sand, and sea-weed, both from Kinsale and Cartig,line, ere taken and distributed in the districts through which this Line is proposed to pass, and form an important consideration in the anticipated traffic on this Railway. The weekly traffic in passengers between Cork and Passage was in the year 1836, as shown by the Irish Rail way Commissioners' Report, 6,800 persons. Of these 6.800 persons, many pass to and from Monkstown, which, with the large number at present passing to and from Carrigaline, Belgooly, and Kinsale, will no doubt be greatly increased. The Railway Commissioners' Report further states, that the exports and imports of Kinsale exceed 15,000 tons, to which may be added the traffic to and from the several flour-mills alone the Line, seven in number, capa ble of manufacturing 80,000 barrels of wheat annually. The Income thus to be deri•ed from Passengers, with that derivable from the Carriage of Goods (even taking the latter as low as one-and-a-half per cent.), will render this undertaking, making every deduction, productive of a profit of from eight to nine per cent.

AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY is a Direct Line from London to Man chester, coming from London to Rugby along the London and Birmingham Line, and proceeding from Rugby by Hinckley through Market-Bosworth and Ashby-de-la- Zouch, to Derby, thence t) Ashbourne and Macclesfield, and along the Macclesfield and Stockport, and Stockport and Manchester Railways, into Manchester. A Branch to Buxton is in contemplation. The principle of this railway is to obtain a direct through line between some of the most important districts in the kingdom with the least possible amount of new railway, and consequently the smallest expenditure of capital. It will also establish the shortest direct communication between Derby and London, Sheffield and London, and between all the towns on the North Midland Railway and London. The Manchester, Derby, and Rugby Railway will open a direct communication br tv ern Manchester and Derby, and will considerably shorts the distance between Man chester and Nottingham arid Manchester and Leicester. The line from Derby to Rugby will establish the direct communication from that town to London, which has been so long considered desirable by the inhabitants. Thr same will apply to Sheffield, when the Sheffield and Chesterfield branch of the North Midland Railway is made. THE GREAT ADVANTAGES Of the Rugby, Derby and Manchester Railway, over the other projects into Manchester, among others, are— First,—That Cher. . are only seventy-five miles of Rail way to be made in place of one hundred and eighty-nine. Secondly,—That it is a more direct line from London to Manchester than even the proposed Direct Lines. Thirdly ,—That ,it interferes with no existing Railway Property or Vested Interests. Fourthly,—That it passes through a district rich in Manufactures. Agriculture, and Minerals, but which— more especially as regards its agricultural produce, and a convenient system of intercommunication for the convey ance of that ~gricultural produce, to supply the large ma nufacturing towns in the vicinity—has been hitherto left totally without Railway communication. Fifthly,—That it passes through the towns in its route in place of avoiding them.

THIS Company will transact all the usual business of Assurance Companies, and in so doing will take advantaze of the modern improvements which have been engrafted into the systems of Assurance, the result of the long-rested experience of old-e:tablished Offices for the Assurance of Lives. Thus, Assurances will be granted upon the payment of one single Premium, or of Annual Premiums, or upon a limited number of payments, on a gradually decreasing or increasing scale, all of which payments may be made half-yearly, or quarterly, if more convenient. Assurances will likewise be granted from £5,000 down wards to any amount, thus opening the door of Assurance to many persons who have hitherto found it inaccessible. The Company will also undertake the purchasing of contingent and reversionary Property, the granting of immediate Survivorships and Deterred Annuities, as, also, the endowment of Widows and Children. It will, likewise, advance money on annuity, mortgage, or other security. The multifarious operations connected with Life Assu rance; for instance, the opportunities afforded to Hus bands and Fathers of making a provision, after their death, for their Widows and Children; to Creditors, to compensate the loss which the death of their Debtors might occasion; in Marriage Contracts, to secure the terms of Settlement; to the possessors of Entailed Es tates, to provide for the younger branches of their fami lies; to persons possessed of Life interest in Pi operty, to provide for their relatives in case of their decease ; to ex pectants of Property in Reversion, to insure a portion of it against contingencies; together with many other in stances which might be enumerated, seem, of late years, to be better understood than formerly. It is with a view to facilitate these operations that the SOVEREIGN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY has been formed; and it will be found that it offers to the public a new system of Loans, more beneficial to the Borrower, and yielding a better return to the Shareholder, than any system at present in use. Thus, any person effecting an Assurance with this Company, can borrow THIZ FULL AMOUNT of the sum secured by the Policy, upon giving collateral security for the payment of the Premium, and interest on the Loan, for a limited number of years, and will not, as in ordi nary cases, be liable to be called upon to repay, in one sum and by a given day, the principal money lent. In order to effect this, the Borrower will pay an in creased rate of Premium beyond what would be required for the ordinary Assurance of his Life, which increased rate, together with the accumulations by way of interest, which the operations of the Company will enable it to realize, will, in effect, repay the principal aunt to the Prenzi like of Poli lion b C e o r m ei p i any in any given number of years, at the option of Borrower, who will, at the expiration of mesh period, eve .' from all further payments in respect of the t ioan, and will, n zeover, hold a Policy with the Com -Loch he t' can, if he ebooies, puny !if some years' (Jura! lon . f or the purpose continue Azir the benefit of his family, . ts of raising a future! itionti, at the ordinory rate at whien would have been entitled to it at the time of the coin. mencement of the original Loan. In case the Borrower sle,uld die during the conduit. ance of the Loan, he will not leave his property encum bered with a debt ; but, on the contrary, bis repre,enta fives will be entitled to receive the amount. secured by the Policy, after deducting a sum equal to the unliquidated portion of the Loan. Or if, ..t any time, he should wish to pay off the Lean to the Society, he cats do so upon advantageous terms. * For example, a person aged twenty-five. who wishes to borrow £lOO, to be liquidated in fifteen years, will have to insure in the Society to the amount of the Loan, and will pay an Annual Premium for such Assurance of £7 9s. 10d. in addition to 5 per cent. interest upon the Loan, making a total ennui! payment of £l2 9s. 10d., for fifteen years only. It is obvious that the longer the period during which the Premiums are payable, the smaller will they be in amount. Should the Borrower survive the period for which the Loan is contracted, he wid, by these payments, have li quidated the principal sum lent, and wi!l posse's a Policy of some years' duration for £lOO, which he can, if he chooses, continue at the ordinary rate of Premium. If, on the other hand, the Borrower should die within the period assigned for the continuance of the Lean% say in the tenth year, he will not leave his property incum bered with a debt of £100; but, on the con , rary, his re presentatives will be entitled to receive £6l 126. 9d., the then value of his Policy. Or again : if at the same time (during the tenth year), he shauld desire to pay off his Lean, he will have to pay to the Society no more than £3B 7s. 3d., and, still re taining his interest in the Policy, will be discharged from all further payments beyond the ordinary rate for Assu rance. _ _ _ _ The examples above given are deduced from the Tables of the Society, a reference to which wilt show the rela►,ive Premiums payable at different ages for Loans of different durations. _ _ It may be observed, also, that persons who have no desire to retain an interest in their Pot:cies for the benefit of their relati,ins, can insure at a much lower rAte than persons who, as in the above examples, retain an interest in their Policies, both during the continsance, snd after the termination of the period for which the Loans are contracted. The advantages which this system offers to persons re quiring temporary Loans, or wishing to pay off existing charges on their property, are numerou", and only require to be fully known to be duly appreciated. First of all, the Borrower in this Society will be saved the expense of frequent transfers, as is the case with those who borrow from the usual sources ; for he can in no case be required to pay off the Loan, except in the manner proposed, al thoogh, if he chooses, he can do so upon most advan tageous tern a to hiMself. Seclndly, he has no appre hension, in case o' his death, of leaving a sum to be paid ' by his surviving relations, or to remain as a charge upon his property, for the Policy repays that porton of the Loan remaining unpaid in case of death; and, whenever that event may happen, he is certain that his family will reap some, and perhaps great, advantages from the Policy which he holds in the Society. And lastly, this system enables the Company to accept securities which would not be available for the purposes of ordinary Loans, in asmuch as the only security required is for the punctual payment of the Premium and Interest, and not for the principal sum lent. It is needless to remark, that many persona can furnish security, in the manner proposed, who could not provide it •or repayment of the whole prin. cipal money by a given day. For example, a person desirous of entering into busi ness, but deficient in the funds wherewith to do so, can, by effecting a Loan for a given number of years,—paying in the meantime a Premium out of his profits, which the Loan from the Company has been the means of realizing, —sunply himself with the necessary capital to commence with, and thus lay a foundation for a pi ospereus business and an ultimate independency. Again, a person desirous of purchasing the house in which he resides, or one more suitable to him, cen borrow of the Company the purchase• money, and by paying a Premium for a !nited time, in stead of rent to his landlord, will, after the termination sf such limited period, be the absolute oniner of the pro perty free from rent. And lastly, in all cases of settle ments on marriage, compositions of debts, arrangements with creditors, &c., a person can avail himself of the advantages off , red by this Company, to obviate the first great difficulty attendant in many cases upon such tran sactions, viz.—the want of ready money,—which defi ciency, the experience of many can prove. has often ren dered nugatory those efforts, which, in all probability, would otherwise have been crowned with success. In addition, however, to the large number of Assn rances which may be expected for the immedists purpose of raising Loans, an equal inducement is held out to persons desirous of effecting Assurances, wheise object is to provide for their relatives, and who may not, at the time they effect the Assurance, require a Loan. By assuring w'th this Company, persons will not only effectually provide fcr their families in case of death, but, at the same will furnish themselves with the means, at any period of life, on any emergency or revere of cir cumstances, of raising a Loan to the amount of their Policy, at the rate of Premium, in respect of their Life Assurance, at which the Policy was originally granted ; thus securing to those who effect Assurances unconnected with Loans, the whole of the advantages of the ys!em of LOan proposed by this Company, whenever they have -occasion to avail themselves of it. _ The profits of the Company will appertain to two classes of members—the proprietors of shares, end the secured. Thu pc c.fato and the policies connected t herewim h, together with a small proportion cif the profits arising out of toe Assurances unconnected with Loans (by way of remuneration to the Shareholders for guaranteeing out of their capital, in case of need, the payment of Assurances falling due), will, after paying interest upon the paid-up Capital of t.te Company, be divided amongst the hAders of shares in the Company. Three-fourths of the profits arising from the Assurance Department, unconnected with Loans, will the divided amongst the parties, either originally effecting Assurances, or who shall hold Assurances after the liquidation of their Loans. This distribution holds out to tie Shareholder, in addition to interest upon the capital invested in shares, the prospect of a large remu neration; as also to the assured, an ample participation in the profits arisirp , frotn the p 'yturrit of premiums; which must necessimily be augmented, by ti , e falling in of Policies into the Assurance Department, after the liqui dation of the Loans originally granted upon them. The Assured. also, will have the security of a large subscribed guarantee Capital, to meet their claims upon the Com pany.
