amount of his policy, he can do so at pleasure. He can at any time,
by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw ,tiv part from II up to the
Whole amount of his previous paymeni it and with interest. After he
has withdrawn part one year he can, by a siegle payment, three
➢,ears, or any time afterwards. raise his policy to a greater or even
LS former amount; and by this system he can at all times regulate
bl 5 annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the
bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as
tri 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
The amount 01 his savings. In ordinary Life Offices be can do uo
finch thing, but his policy at once lapses or is cancelled the moment
he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any
and to fly to for aid, all his hall-earned savings become forfeited to
the society, and his misfortunes serve to benedt the pockets of his
More fortunate co-assurers.
Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be overlooked
and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system o. assurance which can be
universally
recognised and adonted when the princires are impar-
tially canvassed, and its palpable benefits become widely diffused. It
confers greater advantages than a b because it (Mows 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
ease of death, thus combining the
ADVANTAGES OF A RANK WITH THE BENEFITS OF

ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
weneratlye System, 1r Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD

"Dr. Pickford 's known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cii contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
t me, le informs as. that bo has addressed himself to the noa-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
worn, 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; arid 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 h mdreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body 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-
mlnt upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

THE SURREY CLUB v. ISLINGTON ALBION,

This annual match was played at the Northampton
Arms Ground, Islington, on Monday, and proved one
of those contests which will find a place in the list of
" matches extraordinary." Unlike many matches of
the present day, this was played without an infusion of
paid players. The game was, as it were, run away with
by the Surrey Club ; for whilst the Albion gained 39
only in their first innings, the Surrey ran up a score of
175 ; but in their second innings the former was getting
on much better, for when " time" was called they had
obtained 37 runs, with the loss of four wickets only.
At the close of the game the score presented the following
appearance :--
