EXTRACTS FROM THE FA3IPIILET.
" Did banks fur savings meet with neglect ? were the thspositms
left to themselves? driven to public-hou‘ea for meetings, and to
landlords for treasurers? as were the members of Benefit Societies.
No. schoolrooms. chapels, ml proper offices were selects? fur their
business, honorary subscribers eatrc forward to their support. house.
keepers and parish officers formed their tommitsses. Members of
Parliament their batmen, and Noblemen their panonsi and then,
with all the disadvantages of ignorance and neglect on the one
hand, and the benefit of extensive patronage and encouragement on
the other, the two institutions were compared., to show the superio.
rig of the Backs over the Benefit Societies.

" win the advocates for savinga banks be easily persuaded to
save their annual premiums instead of insuring their houses against
fire? Certainly not. Yet they recommend the mechanic to place
his money in the bank to proride against sickness and old age,
whilst they knew that sickness, like tire, though somewhat slower
in its operations. may, in a short time, exhaust the sayings of fifty
years. and, like fire too, may conic suddenly before the first year
expir,s." • •
The best friends of the working classes will always intreat
them provide against the manifold wants of sickness and of old
age, by means of respectable and well-conducted benefit societies,
the payments to which ought to form a part of their current and
positive expenses. To those who have anything to spare after this
a sayings hank may be useful ; the necessities of old age being first
secured by their club, the mechanic and labourer, through the me-
diem of the hank, stay be able to add comforts ; but no individual
eistier befriends his neighbour or his country, by enjc:ning a reli-
ance upon individual savings as a security against casualty, which
easy overtake a man in an hour, and in a few months sweep away
the savings of a whole life." • • •
" There are so few actuaries who can or will pay attention to the
rules, that this important part is generally r.eglected, and the rules
and tables arc submitted, with all the faults of the forma, to the
magistrates of the county in which the Society is to be holden,
wliosesanction sometimes renders, us it were, the most intolerable
contradictions, the most abominable nonsense, part of the law of
the land." • • •
I do not recommend that additional powers be given to the Com-
mission ; the Magistrates are already enabled, by the authority of
an .let o Parliament, to publish instructions, to draw up Rules for
new Benefit Societies, 'to refuse to sanction Amendme its to the
Boles of those already formed, until they arc conformable to the
law, to encourage improvement, and so on ; but three-fourths of
these duties in some counties, and the whole of them in others, tee
kft unperformed. It is shown, I should hope, clearly, that this
neglect is highly injurious, and it is only the transfer of these
powers to an efficient Baird which I advocate, and which, I again
repeat, is necessary to the prosperity of Friendly Societies.

Cot. it A TEs, by his discourse on Marriage, so enrap-
-1.-7 tared his auditors with the subject, th:-.t the married men Mew
to flu it wives, and the bachelors hastened to be wedded; and,
" The Speeratot" has affirmed, that the cord " wife" is the most
agreeable and delightful name in nature.
The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the deside-
ratum of our enjoyment ; teeming not only with happiness on
earth, but disposing the soul itself to harmonize with bliss
hereafter.
Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it
becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but
to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the free-
dom of unrestricted plersure may have entailed upon it. To the
neglect of such arention arc attributable many of those hapless
' instances, which, while they excite the commiseration of the be-
holder, excite in the soarer regret and self-reproach.
Luxurious habits will efibminize the ....iody—a residence in the
tropics will rsbi.x the elastic fibre—but excess of every kind will
weaken the system. To all such, then, we address ourselves,
offering hope—energy, muscular strength—felicity; one will our
advances appear (patio/sable, sanctioned as they are by the multi-
plied pro..f, of twenty years' sucamsful exprience.
The felicity of married life is sometimes disturbed by the sus-
pension pf those blessings which should endear it—for the female
habit is idten constitutionally weak—yet it can be strengthened,
and deficient energy improved into healthfulness and vigour.
In every case we pledge our ability to ens speedily, and with
effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the untlilling empiric from the
position so presumptuously taken op, we deviate from general prin-
ciples with less hesitation ; and ccrttident in our own honourable
integrity as Members of the College of Surgeous, we refer the suf.
firing community of either sex (especially those enterin3 into ma-
trianonial lifei at once to our house, where daily attendance is given
for personal consultationi and letter'from !lie country are Mono.
