This insolvent, who haicasa a licensed victualler near
Slayton, was ~ppoaed by Mr. flargood, on the part of his
wife, Daily Mitchelson, and supported by ]fr. Nichols.
The case was before the court on a tonna occasion, when
the insolvent applied under the Protection Act. He then
inserted se a creditor for 841. 16s. Mr. Young, solicitor, of
Parliament-street, for the expenses of getting a judicial
separation at the instance of his wife, on the ground of
cruelty.- The wife was ordered to be inserted as a creditor,
end the petition was dismissed, as the case did not couie
within the scope of the Protection Act. Soon afterwards
its insolvent was arrested at the suit of his wife for
841.16 a, and petitioned under the Prison Act. It appeared
that in addition to the costs of 841., there were further
costa toabout 201. incurred by the wife, which had nut been
taxed.

The bonus additions now declared, together with former additi.ona,
show total bonuses en the earlier policies as high as 120 per cent.
on the sums originally assured, and 111 percent. on the premiums
paid. On later policies proportional additions have been de-
clared.

Though nominally at a lower rate than the last allocation, the
bonuses now declared give larger additions to the greater num
her of the policies than those received Many former distribution.

The mortality experienced during seven years was 6.9 per cent.
of that Indicated by the Northampton table.
The rate of Interest actually realised was 4 per cent., lea In-
come.tax.

The average expenses of management was 41 per cent. on total
revenue, or el per mut. if viewed as charged wholly ageless the
premiums collected.
The whole valuations and results have 'been tested and com-
pared with estimate* made according to the Carlisle table, sm-
sumlng interest at 3 per cent., which fully confirm the safety
and equity of the distribution now made, in terms of the laws
of the Society.
Dr. Begley, the Medical Officer of the Society, then read to
the IfeWng a Report on the Number and Causes of Death
I during the seven years, containing much Interesting Information.
The Chairman then addressed the meeting as followe—l am
sure we are all very much obliged to Dr. &able for the very In-
teresting and valuable Report which he has now given us, and
which will remain among the records of the Society, both as a
memorial of what has already been dune, and as • guide to as
I In time to come. I believe it has been general at this stage of
the proceedings foe the Chairman to make one or two remarlu
on the state of the Society, and I shall now entleaviair
to do so ; but really what is to be said is so much In
accordance with all that has been said on former ocea-
nic:es that I shall not occupy your time king. I think
it must be very satisfactory to us to have listened to the
'Laporte which we have this day heart We have heard the Annual
Report of the Directure, and we have also heard the more
Im-
portant Septennial Report of the Manager and Auditor,
with the milers made thereupon by the Rxtraordlnary Court
and, although it is a matter only submitted to us for our infor-
mation, we having ho proper voice In that department of the
business, the ileclaratien of a surplus and the distribution of
that surplus among the holders of policies which has now been
laid before us, mast, I think, have given great satisfaction.
When we look at the present state of the Society as compared
with what it was seven years ago we see a great and progressive
i increase In everything in which t is desirable to see le except,
perhaps, in the single point of mortality, In which we must ex.
wet some increase, but the increase Is not great, though It can.
not be denied that that is a matter which requires to he very
seriously watched, because it must have a tendency to affect the
business of the Society. The Increase of the business of the
!Society Is a matter of very great importance to as all, because,
although from the nature of the Society we are only interested In
it for our own lives, yet the extent to which the business Is
carried on is valuable to us In various ways ; In particular
by expanding the transactions of the Society, so as to
equalise averages and bring out results more according to
our calculations ; to reconcile anomalies, and to enable
us to rely with confidence that "Sr expectations will
in general be realised. Independently of that, also,
of course It Is of very great importance in reference to the es.
ponies of management, which, ill such a concern, must always
be great, and which can he more econondeally distribute,) over
• large amount of business. Now, that being the case, we must
all see how important it is to enlarge our Merinos', and that can
(sly be done by coutinuing to act as we have hitherto done In
those things, which will, at one ail the same time, produce
stability In the Society itself, mid Inspire confidence by making
others believers in that stability. There Is • constant tendency
in all moneyed concerns to neglect this duty, to encroach upon
what they have. to treat the future as if It were present, to treat
the possible as if it were certain, and to forget that the best
founded expectations miry In some respects be disappointed.
Now, U there is any society in which the contrary course ought
to be pursued, It is a life Insurance society. We are here
assembled not fur purposes of speculation, trot as merchants,
not as traders undertaking risks, but we come here for the pur-
pose of insurance, to be male sure, to secure to ourselves and
our families something, at nny rate, that shall be placed beyond
the reach of Musel by the transaction that we thus enter Into.
And it is of the very essence of such • Society that It should be
built upon principles of the moat uumeallable security. We have
to secure not only the original sum Insured, but by the nature
sad constitution of our Society, and by the necessity of the case,
we are to secure to every party insured each snomesive bonus
that we declare from the moment that we declare it It Is to be-
come a certainty to that person, and is as much a debt due by
us as If It had been • part of the suns originally Insured. That
being the case, It, of course, becomes necessary Sur us, as holiest
men, and as prudent men, always to see that we not only have
what we may estimate to be ere iugh for covering our obligations
and liabilities, but as all eetimates are uncertain, that we have
a large niters which shall place us beyond the possibility of
doubt amidst the fluctuations and onetime-hetes that may
powdbly overtake us. These, I trust, arc the principles that
we shall always be guided by. We should always err on the safe
side. The parties who are insured are well entitled to receive
as much as can safely be given thus of the profits that have
been nadieed by their funds; but In estimating that profit
we must not be sanguine, we must teaks large allowance,—we
amid practise that self-denial which Is necessary to secure • con.
thnutrearof the business of the Society, a continuance of Its
stability, • ....mahranee of the belief in Its stability by a/lament,
es, an that we may continue to make progress in Medusas, and
get our choice of good businus, of lives both young and old.
That can only he get 14 pursuing faithfully such a coulee am will
enable those who enter the Society, and who may look far for.
ward, to rely upon title, that at the remotest period to which
their lives may extend there will be an ample and secure fund
for their receiving every penny of what we undertake to give
them, a fund that is placed iveyouti the reach of possible doubt.
(Applause.) I have no doubt that our Directors will in future
look about In every possible way to see in what manner the in-
terest:a of the Society can be best promoted. We are all sidling
la the same boat we have no adverse Interest; our whole de-
sire Is to do Justice according to the rights of all parties, to
respect our obligations, and at the same time, so far as can
safely he dope, to allow every man to realise that share of prone
to which ho has cootributed by his confidence lu the Society In
becoming • member of It. iApplauee.i
The Rev. Devil Lorne, Corstorphine, then said—l have hoes
very unexpectedly called upon to aiiiireu this meeting in the
teem of submitting • motion for its approval. I have very great
pleasure in comply leg with the request that iIAA been made that
I should do su, and that pleasure is rally enhanced by my
having beard the Report which has lust been reed, and those re-
meths by which, upon the part of our lordship, It has been an-
yo
companiad. The motion which have to submit fa, "That
the thanks of this meeting be given to the Directors, ordinary
and extraordinary and to the trustees and effienbearen of
the Society, for the manner In which they have respectively
diechented their duties daring the last year." Now, my lord,
there are two elements of character essenUal to the right
conduct and prosperity if snit an institution as this. The
first Is that those who are Directors, whether ordinary or ex-
traordinary, and that those who are ollice-bearers, be men of
hWhest honour—id usquestioned and turquestionable late.
grits, that is 'meant la order to the ocialekne• of the whole
community. It Is needful to that confidence which Is to bellies
parties to avail themselves of such an inetstrither. I reprice to
think that there Is nut only nothing to lead us to doubt the pre-
sence of this, but that there Is everything to engage the coon.
dance of every member mad of the whole uouneuulty touching It.
The other element of character t capacity for the duty which
devolves anthem parties respectively sod I must say, having

listened to the Report which has just I.een read• and having from.
year to year examined with some can the Reports of tidu scalety
for new a very coosideruble period of time, 1 think there never
was any year In this society'. bletory In which the Report no.
mined was calculated to engage a more entire and thorough
taaelkience in the anility alike of the ordinary and extraordinary
Directors, and In the skill of the otesse-bearers on whom devolves
the management of the Society. I have great pleasure in sub-
mitting to the electing the motion which I have Just read.
tCheara

Craildockhart, cordially seconded the resolution,
which was carried by acclamation.
lord if inlocit then said—There Is another duty which we have
to perform. We have thanked the Director, who have ao faith-
=4 monad ;we have now to elect those wham we hope to
thank upon another occasion. It is probably • fortunate thing
for us that we act through managers and directors. Ws cannot
be all managers ; and If everybody attempted to be an actuary I
am afraid the business of the Society would get Into ntter con-
fusion. The motion which I have to submit to you is—" That
the vacancies in the Direction and In the °Moe of trustee be sup-
plied by the appointment of the following gentlemen. recom-
mended by the Extraordinary Court, and that the other members
who am eligible be re-eleeted." As to the last part of the propo-
sition, I think that the thanks which you have already tendered
thaw is by anticipation their re-election. I shall now
mention the names of the gentlemen who are proposed
to fill the vacancies, ?rid I shall take the liberty of
• little transgressing etionette in doing so. I shall go
out of the usual order, and I shall mention to you In the
first Instance the names of those whom I propose to supply the
vacancies amongst the ordinary Directors. The ordinary Di-
rectors are the working bees of our hive, and I think they are
entitled to this hosour. There ie another reason which will i.e
immediately apparent. I have to propose for the vacancies
amongst the ordinary Directors, In the find place, • gentleman
who has served in this Society oolong and so well that we cannot
dispense with his services—the lion. houverie Y. Primrose.
(Cheers.) The second is • gentleman whom we all know : lam
afraid some of us may say we have known as long as we have
lawn anything—Robert, Rutherford, Ess., W.B. Applause.)
The third name, I think. will be well received. It Is the name
of John Mackenzie, Ere., treasurer to the Bank of Scotland.
oar Now, gentlemen, I cannot imagine anything more sans-
.. this meeting, or calculated to give such confidence to
the Society, as the kind agreement to accept office on the part
of our former Manager. And I believe that there Is nobody
that will more thoroughly welcome his entrance lido the Direc-
tion than our present excellent and most efficient manager—Mr.
Raleigh. ;Cheers. It may, perhaps, he said that to Introduce
the old love into the same house with the new is not the best do-
mestic arrangement. Rut, gentlemen, It it the highest possible
compliment we can pay to the gentleman whose name I now
propose to you, when we hold that It is utterly impossible that
anything bet the most cordial unanimity and the most effective
promotion of the interest* of the goelety will follow on Mr.
Mackensit's re-entrance, if I may so speak, into our servioe.
Cheers., I will read the other flames, and lam sure that these
names will themselves prove sufficient recommendutlon to jus-
tify you in at once electing them. I propose as

motion, which wan unantruoualy adopted.
Mr. James liorsburgh Dundee, then said—My lord, perhaps I
would have been more in order had I risen Immediately after the
rending of the Report. However. I have little to say that would
affect it. It will be known to the Directors that there has been
considerable agitation among a number of gentlemen in Dundee,
arising from the statements hewed by the society, and a strong
desire expressed to obtain more Information than the Reports
usually afford. lam very glad to my that the Iteport read to-
day contains a good deal of the inbmnnation required, and, I
dare say, to that extent It will be very highly esthonted. I moat
my that my attendance at this meeting, and my hearing of the
Report, has done away with • good many of the impressions that
remained upon nay own mind. Still I do think that some more
In format 100 might be given by the Directors to soot h the agitation
which has begun, and which threatens to increase tin less something
Ice done to meet it. It is acknozledged on all sides that the North.
mouton tables are not correct. T need not say more on that subject
This meeting's bet teracquainted with it than I am. I know that the
Directors, in accordance with the constitution, are obliged to
make up the periodical statements upon these tables but 1 am
very glad to nod that this year they hare been checked by re-
ference to the Carlisle Three per Cent. table. This, of Itself, is '
very satisfactory. I mast own so and I take the word of the
Directors, that the result by that table shows that they cannot
with propriety divide more than the present bonus of Ll Ifs. ed.
as against gl its at the last period. However, that is in a
measure met by the statement made by Mr. Raleigh, that the
LI les. ed. is really more on most of the policies than the 1:1154.,
looking at the mode In which the bonus is completed. This is
abo satisfactory. But I think that it would be well were the
Directors to make up • statement giving As mammy of the
particulars as jamssible by the Carlisle table at 31 per cent,
In order that the result, as brought about by that mi.
culation, might be contrasted with the statements now
laid before the Society. I do not anticipate that the
Directors will have much objection to do this. If
they were to comply with this request, which I think
Is one which may with all reason he made to them, the results
might show us that further agitation is unnecesaary, sun' would
also do good to the Society. I quite agree with your lordship
that nothing shoeld be done by a meeting such as ohms in any
way to weaken the confidence of the public, or to render the
stability of the Society questionable. 1 for one would certainly
not give my aid to any such thing. But I anticipate, if I am
right, that the result as shown by the si per cent. table, which,
I think, you are quite warranted to take, looking at your Invest-
ments, would be to show that we are In such a sound and solid
position that the confidence of tho public would thereby be
Increased in no. It must be evident to all of us that the
premiums paid by the members of the Scottish Widows
Fund are high, and, of course, we look for a corre-
sponding advantage and if you can, by the Carlisle
table, show to the worig that they are getting that
advantage, first, in the bosun, and secondly, in the large
amount of funds which you are keeping to ward off any contin-
gency that may arise in future, you would increase vastly the
business of the Society. With such • body of members as we
have over all the country, and w ith such security as we can afford
to give, we ought to make more rapid progress than we have
done, encouraging as that progress has heen in times put. I
rise for the simple purpose of suggesting I do not Mali to raise
any discussion on toe subject that the Directors should consider
whether some such statement as I have Indicated might not be
given with propriety to the members of the %wkly. f had the
honour of an interview with Mr. Raleigh thlcluremem, and I
think he understands distinctly what Is desired, and will be able
to give that information to the Directors on the subject which
will enable them to deal with it, if It should he agreeable to them
to take it up.
Lord Nears am sure nothing could be more courteous or
gentlemanlike than the statement now made : and I am sure it
is prompted by no other feeling than a desire to promote the
best Interests of the Society. I think as the gentlemen who are
to be our Directors have only hem elected In full force to-day it
would be premature to soy what they would do. But I have not
the smallest doubt that if the subject is brought under their
notice, which it will be, it will receive their full consideration,
and that they will act so as to conduce to the object which we
have in view, that of increasing the confidence of the public in
the Society and promoting its prosperity. .chee•rs.m
