must naturally induce all considerate persons to inquire into, and
reflect on the security and benefits to be expected from them.
THE PROVIDENT LIFE OFFICE will be found upon
examination to have long realised every benefit and convenience
to the public wk.-do is promised in the new projects. For the
main purpose. provision for surviving objects of affection, the
advantages ;if the Provident Office are second to none. All the
profits, e-Aaept about 5 per Cent. thereon allotted to the Origi-
nal 111,,mbers, for their guarantee Capital of a quarter of a Mil-
lion sterling, and their exoneration of the insured from all re-
-B:eeinsibility, are septennially divided among all insured for Life,
an proportion to their contributions, and added to their policies ;
or in their option applied to the reduction of their future pre-
miums. These additions have amounted to 40 per Cent. on the
premiums received, and in the whole to 313,662!. Their effect
may be judged of from a policy taken out by his late Majesty on
his own life for 3,0001., which additions encreased to 3,9631. As some recent Offices have adopted the name Provident,
it
may be necessary to observe that the Provident Life Office,
founded in 1806 conjointly with the Original Provident Institu-
tion or Bank for Savings, is in Regent-street, Piccadilly.

Bitumen Pavement in several of the Metropolitan Parishes on
a large scale, the prompt payment of the CALL of ONE
POUND, made on the Shares in this Company, has become
imperatively necessary and essential to the interests of every
individual Shareholder.
The Directors Imre hitherto forborne to forfeit the unpaid
Shares, pursuant to their last advertisement, in consequence of
the pressure of the times, but they now deem it their duty to
the Company, and in justice to those Shareholders who have
paid, to declare that all Shares upon which the Call shall not
be paid on or before the 20th day of November next, will then
be absolutely forfeited.
411 Shareholders who have not paid the Call are requested to
pal:- the same, and to present their old Certificates at the Union
Bank of London, No. 8, Moorgate-street, to be exchanged for
new Certificates of 31. per Share.
Information may be always received upon application at the
Company's Office between Eleven and Four o'Clock.
