The County is the only Fire Office which has constantly made
Returns to its Members, and for a long series of years. These Re-
turns have varied from 10 to 25 per cent. and have amounted to up-
wards of 100,0001.
In the Life Office, nearly the whole of the profits are divided
among the parties insured. Their effect may be judged of from a
Policy taken out by his late Majesty on his own life for 3,0001.,
which additions Increased to 3,9631.
Upwards of thirty Insurance Offices having been broken up within
a few years, and nearly as many new ones having been projected
within the last two or three years, it may be necessary to observe,
that all the substantial advantages promised by such new Offices
have been long realised under the plans and management of the
Provident Life Office.

tion of the Central Negro Emancipation Committee. The specific

cial documents and other authentic sources; recent Intelligence

" This volume presents to us a number of illustrations of his sin-
gular success under circumstances that would have induced despair
in any professor of less mastery, or less accustomed to accomplish
cures where cures seem impossible. The statements here made are
most convincing, and place beyond doubt the superiority of the treat-
ment to which they refer."—Court Journal, August 1837.
" This volume is a clever and clearly-written treatise on an ex-
tensive class of diseases, accompanied by a vast number of testi-
monials, indicative of the success of the author. The simplifica-
tion of language in this work, is to be regarded as one of the good
effects of diffusing intelligence, both in those who communicate and
those who receive instruction."—Brighton Herald, Sept. 16, 137.
" It must excite a feeling of deep interest and gratification in the
minds of all suffering from these afflictions, to learn from Mr.-Van
Butehelrs testimonials, that cases of thirty and forty years standing
have yielded to his practice."—Morning Advertiser, Oct. 4, 1837.
" It is only a long and extensive practice that could enable Mr.
Van Butchell to publish a work which contains an endless number
of interesting cases, written by the patients themselves, who have
been restored to sound health by his successful treatment; cases of
the most obstinate and determined character have yielded to Ills
skill."—Blackwood's Magazine, December 1837.
