THE MAIL STEAM-SHIP for AUSTRALIA,

rke Hyde, Commander, AVM sail ffoin Southampton with, her
thejestY" Mails for Adelaide, Port-Philip, and Sydney, on Weduciday
4th October, 1854, at Tw.i o'clock pm. punctually. The " Argo,"
one of the fastest ships afloat, is Justly celebrated for her last passage
to Australia, having made the run cut in 64 days, and home within
re same pefiod. She is also the first steam-ship that returned to
'Wand via. Cape Horn, thus accomplishing a vsyag.e round the
world in 128 days.' The vessels forming the superb fleet of screw
steamers of this Company,.of which this ship is one, are well knOwn
for the pa netuality and speed witli which their voyages are performed.
:'N° expense has been spared in their construction, and the accommo-
dations which they cflag .to", the pulic are unsurpas,ed. if equalled,
by atty ships afloat. Rates of Passage Iloney vary, according, to the
"ecommodation required; from' 30 to 100 guineas. - Full particulars

LIFE ASSURANCE.
MOST IMPORTANT BENEFIT EVER YET OFFERED BY
THE UNIVERSAL PROVIDENT LIFE
ASSOClA.TlON.—Established,lB49.

Persons insured for. Life, who have, paid three yearly premiums
41(1 upwards, can receive back their Money, less the premiuni for
the risk incurred during the' time they were insured on surrender of
the policy

EXAMPLE.
A 13, aged 35, pays 147. 35 9d. a-year for Life for 5001, and at ; the
end of seven yams wishes to drop his Policy—he will at this time
have paid 99/. Gs. 3d., and for the surrender of the Policy he would
In other orildes get a very little, if anything, and the premiums
'would (mad: mealy be lost.
The Directors of the Universal Provident, Whig this to be a great
hardship and a positive obstacle to the adoption of Life Assurance by
all classes, have adopted the equitable principle of deducting the pre-
mium for the time the risk has been incurred from the premiums
NIL], and returning the balance to the parties, thus making a profit
themselves without any risk. In the example above the insurance
fOr 00/. for the time would,have been 9/. 9s. 7d. per annum, or 6GI.
Is. Id.; this deducted from 991. Cs. 3d. leaves 327. 19s 2d. to he
returned. - The adVentage of this principle is peculiarly *applicable
when Policies are taken out to cover Loans.

The ease:Alai object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences
resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
.which have prof:awed' more misery in' Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps,. any
other class of disease knoWn to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts •of
,their physical condition, and who are Conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness; and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is atitolutely necessary thatall mon should know, that there are
principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
Incurring grievous penalties, and when Wisdom and regret succeed
• the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
, • may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of rhysical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. -
The.author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
• practice in +he treatment of these delicate complaints, which have.
unfortunately teen too generally confided. to the care of ignorant
empiries, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place'
faith in their pretensions.
