* ExAsirLE.—At the commencement of the year 1841 a person aged
thirty took out a Policy for 1,0001., the Annual Itayment for which
is 241. Is. Bd.; in 1847 he had paid in Prettitunio 1601. 1 Is. Bd. ; but
the profits being 2% per cent. per annum wthe sum insured (which
is 221. 10s. per annum for each 1,0001.), he had 1571. 10s. added to the
Policy, almost as much as the Premiums paid.
The Premiums, nevertheless, are on the most moderate scale, and
only one-half need be paid for the first five years when the In-
surance is for Life.
Every Information afforded on application to the Resident Direc-

conditions in health and disease. Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the
highest medical honours, as evidenced by the diplomas and testimo-
nials inserted in the work, is the only legally qualified medical man
who has exclusively, and for many years, devoted his studies to the
treatasent of these complaints. He may be consulted with advan-
tage by all those whose constitutions may have become Debilitated
through secret practices acquired in youth, or by the excesses of
later years, whereby the pleasures of life are marred, the objects of
marriage frustrated, and existence itself rendered a term of unceas-
ing misery and regret.

naval armaments—sums of money which, upon his own
showing, no nation is justified in so expending, when they
can be more wisely applied to commerce and manufacture.
Could he deny this state of things, his arguments would be
plausible. But acknowledging these, how is it that so
shrewd a man did not at once perceive that the present
proceedings of France afford the most complete contradiction
to his assumptions? The same arguments which he uses to
show the utter improbability, if not the very impossibility of
an invasion by France, would also disprove the actual ex-
istence of these preparations. Mr. Cobden dwelt much upon
the fact of France being an industrial country, and on the
necessity of peace for success in its various manufactures.
Invasion was unprofitable; he would therefore infer impos-
sible. But are not those naval preparations, the enormous
works at Cherbourg, and Brest, and Toulon unprofitable
in Mr. Cobden's sense? Would not the money now
expended on them be more wisely and profitably
employed in improving the resources and developing the
industry of the country? If, therefore, in these matters,
where the prospect of advantage is more distant and more
uncertain, that nation has not been guided by those ideas
of commercial and mercantile advantages which Mr. Cob-
den thinks irresistible, and which render the very idea of
invasion ridiculous; why should they be guided by them
in the event of a war? So weak an argument, one ad-
mitting of such easy refutation, and yet forming the staple
commodity in the mouths of the Manchester men and the
extreme opponents of the Ministry, gives a plausibility to
the sarcasm thrown out against them by the Secretary at
War—that Hon. Members had expected to find in the
measure laid before the House some details which could be
popularly attacked, either on the ground of expenditure or
the unpalatableness of its provisions to the tastes and
habits of the people. Happily, however, to the nation
at large (unhappily it may have been to this section of
the House), no such cause of offence could be found—for
none such exists. The old form of the ballot is to be
superseded by voluntary enlistment; and, as an encourage..
ment to serve, it is proposed to offer a bounty to men join-
ing the service, not exceeding 3L, to le paid tkt once, or_ la__
-monthly instalments. The length 'of serviceextends over
a period of five years ; but the time for drill in each year is
not to extend beyond twenty-one days. The opinions of
the first military authorities in the kingdom are sufficient to
satisfy any 'doubts which may exist as to the adequacy of
this period for efficient drilling and training. 'The great
object of the Bill is to render it as little obnoxious as pos-
sible to the people; and it must be remembered that a saving
of time in this respect is not only a saving of labour and
trouble to the volunteer, but a considerable saving also of
expenditure to the nation. A right, however, is reserved
t• the Crown, in cases of emergency, to extend this
period of three to seven weeks, or reduce it to
three days. The age at which the volunteers will
be capable of serving varies from 18 to 35. The result of
this will be to render easy the employment of substitutes,
should the ballot be resorted to. It is proposed to raise
the entire efficient force to 80,000, of which 50,000 are to
be called out the first year, and 30,000 the next; thus
varying the time of service, in order that a nucleus may
always be preserved of men already trained and disciplined.
Every district in the country will furnish its proper con-
tingent, and the limits of these districts will be fixed by the
Registrar-General. On the average of five years the ex-
pense will be 250,0001. per annum; but in the first year not
less than 400,0001. will be required, in consequence of the
cost of arms and equipments. Mr. Cobden and Mr. Bright
will make a hustings question of it. Let them make their
vaunting good, and we shall be the first to thank them,

THE EPSOM SPRING MEETING.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—The meeting on the Cockney-loved Downs of Epsom
stands for decision on Thursday next, and bids fair, from
present appearances, to be the best of the kind that has yet
been celebrated.

The sport commences at one o'clock, with the Epsom Trial
Stakes of 5 soya. each, with 50 added ; three yrs old ast
121 b ; four, Bst 71b ; over the mile course. This stake closes
to-night at six o'clock, and the nominations will have to be
made to Mr. Dorling at Epsom. I shall give my opinion on

it to-morrow.
The second race will be run at a quarter before two, and
is the City and Suburban Handicap of 15 sovs. each, 10 ft,
&c., with 150 added; over the last mile and a quarter of the
Derby course. lam not at all positive at the present time
of the fields for any of the races, consequently shall give a
list of the nags under moving orders in the Third
Edition of The Sun of this evening, should my ac-
counts come to hand, otherwise it will appear in
to-morrow's paper. The field for this stake, I believe, will
consist of the following :—Prime Minister, Thornhill, Merry
Peal, Kilmeney, Edward of York, Diligence, Mary Ann, The
Brahmin, Sir Charles Napier, Greengage, Cytherea filly,
Lady Isabel, Flounce, Butterfly, and perhaps Surprise. The
race, I may briefly state, will, in all probability, be contested
severely by the Minister, Edward of York, Greengage,
Flounce, and Butterfly; I say nothing about Surprise, be-
cause considerable doubt surrounds his starting. Should he
go, however, his chance is first rate, and there seems but
very diminutive hopes of anything beating him; but as his
non-starting seems stronger than his starting, I must look
somewhere else for the winner, which it is not at all impos-
sible I may find in Mr. Greville's GREENGAGE or EDWARD
or YORK; Butterfly, Flounce, and Sir Charles Napier being
close up.
The third race on the card will be run off at half-past two,
and is the Two years old Stakes of 10 soya. each, with 25
added; colts, Bst 61b; and fillies,Bst 41b ;, half a mile. Tbs
field -win ptutuslAy yuiURIA of the mater to aracunous,
Anxiety, Margellina filly, Blonde, Gold :Doat, John- Bull,
vciuientation, Deerhound, Pantomime, Sextus, Red Tape
filly, Estelle filly, King David, and one of Mr. Payne's. The
race, I imagine, will rest entirely with the Sister to Ira-
cundus, Margellina filly, Pantomime, Estelle filly, and Mr.
Payne's Starter; and that the final struggle will show the
ESTELLE FILINT, SISTER TO IRACUNDLIS, and PANTOMIME,
in the first, second, and third places.
The fourth race will be for the Great Metropolitan Stakes,
and will come off as near half-past three as possible, on the
two-miles and a quarter circumbendibus course. As near as
I can judge this morning, the field will be comprised in the
following :—Elthiron, The Ban, Miss Ann, Backbiter, Offici-
ous, Calmar, Kick-up-the-Dust, Hungerford, John of Ber-
wick, Achyranthes, Candlewick, Ischia, Sally Warfoot colt
(d), Joe Miller, Snowdrop, Ethelwolf, Captain Flash, Kate,
Stilton, and Snarry. This field may be slightly altered, but
such accounts as I have received lead me to infer that
it is, with perhaps one or two exceptions, about the
thing. Elthiron, The Ban, and Miss Ann, are in my
opinion effectually settled by the weight, and their chances
held particularly safe by Backbiter, at Bst 31b. Officious, a
five yrs old, at 7st 31b, and moreover a flyer in days of yore,
looks anything but dispicable for this event; she shall offi-
ciate as my forlorn hope or cockboat on the present occasion,
in case my selection should be defeated. Calmar, at 31b less
than the last-named, is of emrse out of therace. Kick-up-the-
Dust, a filly that can go the distance and live a respectable
pace, is the most dangerous looking animal figuring in the
middle division. Her performances have always been re-
spectable, and I have no reason on this occasion to think that
it will be otherwise. Hungerford's chance is not a bad one,
but the distance is a shade too far for him. John of Ber-
wiek and Achyranthes;will run forward, but to my thinking
not quite forward enough to win. Candlewick, at a very
favourable weight, would look well if the course was heavy
or the pace slow, but her want of speed will on this occasion
operate as an effectual bar to her winning. Ischia has been
leniently treated by the handicapper, but still has
little chance of turning up a good thing. The Sally
Warfoot colt is a fine slashing ahimal,, and if
it had not been for adverse rumours concerning his condition,
Scc., I should have been inclined to place him in the front
flight. Joe Miller, well-bred, in good form, and much fan-
cied by his owner, will cut a respectable figure in the race;
but this son of witticism will not carry my cash. Snowdrop
is no go. Ethelwolf will persevere to the end. Captain
Flash will take some beating and will finish forward. Kate
will attain a place ; Stilton be about the bull's-eye ; and
Snarry, if he runs, will be just inside the distance when the
race is won. To draw my remarks to a conclusion, I believe
Backbiter to be the best of the heavies, Officious, and Kick-
up-the-Dust of the mediums, and Kate and Stilton of the
feathery division. One of this quintetto lam tolerably wel'
convinced will be the winner, and I should place them thus :
