INCORPORATED PURSUANT T ACT OF PARLIAMENT.
At 'he present day, wl'en Railway travelling has become almost
Un versal, protection against the pecuniary loss to which the families
of sufferers from the accidents incidental to it are exposed, is one of
the requirements of the age. To meet this general feeling, this Society
affords to all persons, of whatever class, travelling by Railway in
Great Britain ant Ireland, the opportunity of insuring against loss of
life by accident whilst so travelling, at the moderate premium of
10s. per cent., is one single payment, for the whole period of life,
thereby rendering unnecessary the payment of Annual Premiums, as
in ordinary Life Assurance.
EXAMPLE.—A. person may by one single payment of 51. assure to
his family or others the sum of 1,0001., to be paid in the event of his
osing his life by railway travelling in Great Britain or Ireland.

PUBLIC NOTICE.-EIGHT NEW LIGHTS.
—The only geod Lights in the world—they only need knowing
to be admired. The Diamond Lamp is the only Light that really*"
gives satisfaction, its equal Is unknown ; its superior will never
come.—The Vertical Diamond Lamp surpasses the Carcel Lamp of
France in every respect.—The Pearl Candle Lamp with detached
cup, &c., Is worth a hundred other Cantle Lamps.—To sell the ordi-
nary Candle Lamps Is now impossible.—The public have long enough
been pestered with such rubbish.—The Star, the Golden, the Glass,
the Ring and the Reflecting Gas Burners surpass all others beyond
comparison. The lkietropolit in Light Company her Majesty's demi-
mions with Light supply.—The Public will have none other.
The whole of the New Lights are constantly burning at the Com-
pany's Establishment, 447, West Strand, RICHARD CLARK, Resi-
