taih,areTinstm,
now bordering* upon two years since the Unity Fire Associa-
zxgbusinese. At this period last year we close the
issued 500,000 shares, obtaine I the full sitbecrio-
Onxithf°r "r capital, and effected 4 277 policies insuring 2,393 9941.
,„ e 24th of September the great advertisement, which attracted
and
attention of the whole country, was inserted in the " Tim s"
auncth her morning journals. The immediate effect was to arouse
ne`e an amount of attention as It may safely be affirmed no ,Adver-
e.7eMerit ever before succeeded in attracting, and effect oa the
tukSution tar excee led the very highest exeeetatious th it bad
eu format of it. Notwithstanding the immeivity of the erourie-
forY,the array of names produced such confl !sure that the demand
afters was greatly increased ; and in November, only mix e cos s
the appearance of the advertisement, we created an in-
a'ased capital with the issue of 1,000,0 0 new shares at cent. pe
e
the Premium. Of these ne e shares, 116,090 have ben ismed, anti
Premium received amounts to more than 10,0001., showing a
troll' to the Association of nearly 501. per diem since the Ist of
Zeoary.
The proprietary, already increased some thousands, is
mine day by ilay more widely diffused.
In the the three quarters immediately succeeding the appearance of
isotreat advertisement, we issued 8,246 policies insuring 5,985,633'.
8,48nt, in 21 months, 12.523 p slides hid been issued insuring
while the business for six months from Christmas showed
an average of 30,0001. per diem, 175,0001. per week, or upwards of
000,00ge a..year.
....Bneh results, gratifying as they must be, should be stimulants to
LlTreaseti exertions ; and the Direct°. s feel bound to pursue a course
whio
/1 has been attended with so much benefit to the Associations
ree which they preside. The Unity Associations have enormous
iuonprecedented proprietaries, but nevertheless they look to the
f,°_N for the appreciation of their principles, and to that unlimited
Lejot for the extension of their business. The public mind must be
untied of the principles of the Unity, of t-e advantages it offers to
insurers of the extent ot its resources. of the perfect security it affords,
"a of the large amount of support it has already received.
It must be in your memory that, on a former occasion, a vast deal
Nvas saie,by the agents of rival institutions respecting the policy of the
Course pursued by the Unity, and an uneasy feeling was attempted to
be created in the minds of the shareholders that the management was
Pursuing an extravagant course, adverse to the pecuniary interests
of the shareholders. It may have occurred, however, to some or the
shareholders, that the extraordinary anxiety for their interests ex-
Pressed by the agents of rival companies—which had been most un-
Lenin 1 in their attempts to injure the Association—was not above
OUS
allaPicion. Ws not usual for rivals to be so anxious for the welfare
Of their competitor, and you may well look with distrust upon advice
°olo.ine from such quarters. If other companies have any interest at
.
m our Association, it is in its downfall, and they certainly will
'oeP silence, rather than volunteer advice, when they see us pursue
Jog a course which they fancy leads to destruction.
There may, however, be those who. unacquainted with the philo-
sophy of advertising, might be inclined to doubt the prudence of the
"wrse adopted, and to such I would address a few words of explana-
ti-ee „ d
e,„°e euppone that an ordinary advertisement were to appear
in your local papers—Liverpool, for example—for 12 mouths ;
sloe would consider, and naturally, such advertising necessary for
I).llblicity ,Peal , seeing that
ou there are numberless insurers and a great pub-
ic to ai to. Y would not think that course extravaeant The
tx-Penditure of the money would excite no surprise. No " friendly
warning" would reach your eel' of the reckless expenditure of the
management. Shareholders in M atehester, Nottingham, Bir-
mingham, Leeds, Eastern Counties, Hampshire, and in the west,
would think with you. But what would be the result ? In doing
Ilia, we should have expended, in 12 monthS, 30,0001.! And for
what? As it created ne surprise hi the mind of the Shareholders,
10 it would have aroused no attention with the pubic. But we
tpenl, in one day, a thirtieth" part of the money, and in the
roadsheets of the great metropolitan press, whose eirculatone
are Prescribed by the boundaries of the world only, we exhibit In one
e
oar progress, position, and principles. It is the concentration,
'Etas only to be obtained, which startles and most effectually attracts
Pllblic attention.lto
soliciting your attentive perusal of the advertisement of the
mineral
instant, I could just remark that the principles of the Unity
Assurance Association, and the benefits which wid accrue
to lire assurers in that institution, you will aDo find there explained.
iThe interests of the two associations are now so identified, that
it
hesee,scarcely possible to take any step with regard to the one without
eadvertise-
ment-`utting the other. Last year the expense of the large advertise-
t was borne by the Unity Fire Association alone. Now the ex-
-1,4 nse le divided in proportion between the two associations. This is
o
°f. the many advantages which will be derived by the two asso-
Ilona acting in concert.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
Rooltlences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
d,Goand 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 haying hazarded
the
health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary thatail men should know, that there are
rrinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without
teurrlng grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
the bow the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all,
a t there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of sciecce cannot apply a cure,
-1 Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
Practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
Unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
e'?lPirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
aith in their pretensions.
