ON THE DEPOSIT SYSTEM.
If un able to pay, or not

Hey would still remain
of its PULL value,

20 years after, no fur-
ther payment beingre-
quired. Ifhowever the
party, from any cause,
wished to cancel the
Policy, he could not
onlydraw out all hehas
put in, viz., 2251., bnt
20 71.10 s Od 225/. 5221.257 d 2871. 28.9 d. a certain bonus of 62/.25. 9d. in the bargain,
which is more
than one-fourth of the
whole of his payments,
or he could either draw
out a part, 201. or 501.,
diminishing the Policy
only by the assured
value of the sum se
drawn out at the age
when withdrawn. See
pagess and7in detailed
pamphlet, by
F. G. P. Nelson, Esq.

On comparison of these two tables it will be seen that a person
tinder the novel system of DEPOSIT assurance can secure the follow-
ing advantages, viz., Ist. For a less sum, paid annually, he can assure
larger sum in case of death than under the ordinary system.
"IIY. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive
in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all ages,
TnttEE times as much as on the ordinary system. 3rdly. In the event
of inability or omission to pay, his policy remains still his property,
0f the same value as it was, though he cease his current payments
for any number of years ; whereas on the ordinary system, ,he gets
bottling. 4thly. Should he require to increase or decrease the
arnount of his policy, he can do so at pleasure. He can at any time,
bY giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any part from 11 up to the
Whole amount of his previous payments and with interest. After he
has withdrawn part one year he can, by a siegle payment, three
Years, or any time afterwards. raise his policy to a greater or even
its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate
his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the
nargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as
in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets Inte-
rest fur his money, and in case of death his family receive more than
She amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices he can do no
such thing, hut his policy at once lapses or is cancelled the moment
I,;e ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any
fend to fly to for aid, all his hail-earned savings become forfeited to
the society, and his misfortunes serve to benefit the pockets of his
More fortunate co-assurers.
Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be overlooked
and ntrosir assurance is the only system of assurance which can be
universally recognised and adopted when the principles are impar-
nll4ll3' canvassed, and its palpable benefits become widely diffused. It
'Quferti greater advantages than a bank because it allows a fair rate
of interest in case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the
hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor in
case /n death, thus combining the
ADVANTAGES OF A BANK WITII:IIIIE_BENEFITS OF

AN ASSURANCE COMPANY.
In ease of endowment assurances the advantages of the DEPOSI

em are still more striking.

ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
In relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, or Sexual H) pochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD
"Dr. Pickford is know n to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
t me, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
sower to correct."—London Medical Gazette. May 30, 1851.
"We oromised in a former number that we should recur to this
war's, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of ' Quiet Symathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from th com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hmdreds would
be saved much needless suffering of liody and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good. "—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
"In proot of his views ho (Mr. Conrtenay) has given
the history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
,uch are cases ix., ii., xii.. and avl9. No. ix. had roa`•sted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, both
In duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successfUl."
