According to the constitution of this Company the several
parties interested in its prosperity, are,
I. The Shareholders, who will receive the whole profits de-
rived from the non-participation branch of Assurance ; anti, on
the other hand, they will guarantee, to the extent of their sub-
scribed stock, the payment of the Policies to all the Assured.
11. The Assured, on the Mutual, or participating scale, who
will receive the whole profits arising from this branch of the
business ; while the payment of the sums coniracted for in their
Policies will be guaranteed by the capital of the Company.
111. The Assured, on the principle of Non-participation,
who have the guarantee of the capital of the Company, pay a
proportional smaller annual premium on their Policies.
Naval or Military Officers, and others, may, if they choose,
assure upon a general rate of premium, which will cover the
tisks of all climates and actual warfare,--an advantage never
before offered by any Assurance Office; and facilities will also
be given to military men for advancing their interests in the
Army.
The premiums may be paid yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly.
The whole amount of the premium may be paid in a single pay-
ment, or in a stipulated number of years, or on a decreasing
scale, till the payments snail entirely cease.
When the Assurance is-for-life (for all ages from fourteen to
fifty-five) one half of the premium may remain unpaid for seven
years, at an interest of five per cent., to be paid up as may suit
the convenience of the Assured ; or, in the event of the Policy
becoming a claim, to be deducted from its amount.
A Board of Directors is holden every Wednesday, at One
o'clock P.M., at the Temporary Office, 34, Cockspur-street, to
receiveproposals for Assurances, and for the transaction of busi-
ness ; but proposals may be made and Assurances effected on any
other day.

VEVER MEDICINE,
-L. NOW FIRST INTRODUCED INTO EUROPE.

This Medicine has been proved by experience, in many
thousand cases, to be far more efficacious than any Febrifuge
hitherto known, and totally free from the unpleasant effects
sometimes produced by Bark and Quinine.
It is purely vegetable, and is the product of Plants discovered
by Dr. WARIBURG in Central America, under the same parallel
in which Peruvian Bark is found. It has been extensively
used in the West Indies, British Guiana, America, and the
East Indies, and has never been known to fail, even in the
most malignant Fevers. Its operation is uniform ; its effects
immediate and certain; and it may be safely administered to
infants at the breast. _ _

- .
The Physicians of the principal Medical Establishments are
respectfully invited to make trial of this Medicine, for which
purpose a supply will be furnished gratuitously upon appli-
cation.

It is exhibited in the form of a Tincture. Doses two, of two
drachms and a half each, with an interval of three hours. The
effects uniformly produced, are immediate relief of pains in the
head, back, and limbs; slightly narcotic, and highly sudorific.
Usual period for total eradication of Fever, from three hours to
twenty-four.
DR. WARBURG'S VEGETABLE FEVER DROPS
Are sold in Bottles, at Bs. each, including the Government
Stamp, with the names of the Proprietors,
PARKER and COMPANY, King William-street, Charing-
cross, London.
