The principles of this Society, in addition to the ordinary objects
of other Offices, combine to the Assured all the advantages of a
LIFE ASSURANCE and a SAVINGS' BANK, besides a wider
application of Life Assurance to the WANTS and VARIOUS
CONTINGENCIES in HUMAN LIFE amongst the UPPER, b
AIIDDLE, and LOWER CLASSES.
The Directors having completed every arrangement, are now 0
ready to entertain Proposals for Assurance in all its forms.
The Rates of Premium, although of lesser importance when the r
other advantages secured to the Assured in this Society are consi- _
dered, have nevertheless boen fixed as low as the point of safety
Would warrant, and are, notwithstanding, positively lower than T
the great majority of other Offices.

and East India service, Foreign Climates, and increasing and di- E
Minishing scale of Premiums in detail, may be had on application eh
at the Offices of the Society. 8v

Lodaim ophthalmia, aeoeinpaniel by opacity of the *Knee, and a varicose

Yoe in which the preparation was used ; but, being struck by the ad-
agsleus results, I resolved to lay aside prejudices, and advise its use in
inno eases in
thert at this hospital. The benefit was great, and has
;14e still fu to recommend it, but, unfortunately, the funds of the
,Pital are low, and our patients too often cannot afford the purchase of
it being, from its price, almost as unattainable to the poor as
Patent medicine would he. If it be not asking too much, could you ferns
