13RITISH INDIA SOCIETY.
For e CONDITION of our FEL-
I'"Y-SUBJECTS,BETTERING the NATIVES of BRITISH INDIA.
At a numerous and highly respectable MEETING, held in
Freemasons,
Hall on Saturday, the 6th inst., an Association
Was formed under the above denomination. The following ex-
tracts from the Society's Prospectus will suffice to commend
its claims to public approval and support
" The Committee entertain no doubt that, when the vast
nPortance of our Eastern Possessions is understood—when the
lms of one hundred millions of British Subjects are recog-
nized and felt—and when the responsibility and moral obliga-
tion of this nation towards them are considered, a great and
generous effort will promptly be made to benefit a country
which contains within itself the means of returning a hundred-
fold into the bosoms of its benefactors, all the blessings they
can possibly confer upon it,.
The Committee prefer to make their appeal to the just
Principles and Christian feelings of the country. They are not
?gnorant, however, of the extent to which they might address
,nnectleeMselves to the loyalty, the patriotism, and the interestsA of
Anne
fellow-citizens; but they believe that
such an appeal is
uessary. They feel convinced that no argument is re-
!mired to demonstrate the inseparable connexion between the
bettering of the social, moral, and intellectual condition of the
countless millions of India, and the accomplishment of those
ends which arc-sought by the promoters and patrons of legiti-
mate commerce, and the advocates of the honour, the stability,
and the prosperity of the British Empire at home and abroad."

'ERMAN SEIDLITZ POWDERS, manufacted by Mr.

PeT:pose, as we understand that a correct analysis, by several

GREAT ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE
UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSU-
RANCE COMPANY,
8, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, and 2, Chariette-row, Mansion-
house, London.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the
most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only re-
quires, when an Insurance is for the whole period of life one
half of the very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five
years after the date of the Policy, the other half may remain,
subject to the payment of interest at fi per cent, annually, to be
deducted at death, or may previously be paid off at convenience.
It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate
income to secure, by this arrangement, a provision for his
family ; and should he at any time after effecting the insurance
succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he may relinquish his policy,
having only paid one half the premiums for the first live years,
instead of the while, as in all ether Companies.
Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of
his. 3d. for the first five years, and afterwards
by paying yearly the full premium of 571. 12s. 6d., se-
cure to his widow and children at his death payment of no less
than 3,000/., subject only to the deduction of 144/. Is. 3d ,
with interest, being the amount of premium unpaid.
This Company holds out, in various other respects, greet
inducements to the public. When such facilities are afferded,
it is clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed
of a fortune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure
his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable prevision for
his family.
