new attractions in both departments, which throw its rival into the

BOW STREET-(THIS DAY.)

George Evans, a pauper, was charged with being drunk
and creating a disturbance at 41re Strand Union workhouse,
Portugal-street, Lincoln's Inn Fields.
It appeared from the statement of Atterel, the constable
of the workhouse, that the prisoner has on al; occasions
conducted himself in the most riotous and disorderly man-
ner, by fighting with the other paupers, for which he has
repeatedly been committed to prison. Having obtained
leave to go out yesterday, he returned last night in a state
of intoxication, and, as he was refused admittance, he at-
tempted to assault the complainant, and created such a dis-
turbance as to cause a mob of persons to assemble about
the door. He was with much difficulty conveyed to the
station-house.
. . .

The prisoner denied the charge, and
Mr. MINSHULL ordered him to find bail, obseming, that
from the several charges which had lately been brought
against him he was unfit to be at large.

PROSPECTUS.

But while these great advantages are held out to the Capitalist
the Assured will find that his interests have been attended to with
no less care and caution. The unusual extent of the scheme, the
rigid economy of its details in practice, and the various new modes
introduced into it of investing and augmenting capital, enable the
Directors to reduce the premitinis on the several policies to a low
rate, adapted to the means and wishes of every class. By a more
universal application of the system, it holds out a resource against
the loss of income in all its shapes and bearings, it provides a fund
for old age—for the clerk, whose salary fails with his office—for
the creditor, whose sole security is the life of his debtor—for the
husband, whose only income is his wife's fortune—for the de-
pendent upon an annuity for another's life—for the tenant bound to
repair, or to pay fines for renewals—for thosniarents or guar-
dians who have paid apprentice fees, and such apprentice dies, and
it then becomes an object to regain the money so expended—for
these, who would create a fund for the education of their children,
or who would secure an independence to the younger branches of
their family—and in general for the many contingencies against
which. a moderate or uncertain income affords no provision.
In regard to the payment of the settled premium, every facility
will be allowed the assured, either by gradually lessening its yearly
amount, according to a given scale, or by at once reducing both the
premium and the policy, and considering the overplus, that will
then have been paid, as so much premium liquidated in advance.
If the assured so chooses the Company will purchase the Policy
altogether.
It has been said that-mutual Assurance Companies are most ad-
vantageols to the public. As the present in its first or modern
mutual branch is both a mutual and Proprietory Company, the
friends and patrons of it will have the opportunity of availing them-
selves of all the advantages of a mutual Assurance Office without
incurring responsibility or being subject to any of its other disad-
vantages ; nor will the proprietors reserve to themselves any por-
tion of the profits that may be derived from this branch, although
their paid up capital will form a guarantee fund in case of war, or
epidemic, or any other of those accidents which would derange, if
not ruin, a Society based upon less secure foundations.
These are a few only of the advantages to be obtained at a small
outlay, and no risk, to those assured with " The Freemasons and
General Life Assurance Company."
For the details the public are referred to the printed Prospectus,
to be had (gratis), at the Company's Office, where attendance is
given daily from Ten to Five o'clock.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same new principles, the Society is en-
abled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more
advantageous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by
the contribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving,
may secure either a comfortable prevision for himself in advanced
age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family
at his death. _ .

.....
The industrious classes, hitherto obliged to resort to Savings
ranks and Benefit Societies, will find in this scheme a far safer
and more profitable application of their savings. This Society is
tnabled by judicious and accurate calculations to afford a Deferred
Annuity of a muck greater amount than has hitherto been offered,
besides the option of exchanging this annuity, when payable, for a
large sum in cash, or a Still larger Policy payable without premiums
at death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time preceding
the stipulated term of the annuity's commencement, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period,
two-thirds of his payments will be returned to Isis representatives.
The purchaser has also the power of converting, on equal terms, his
deferred into a present annuity.
The following table is a specimen of the great and v'ariedl ad-
vantages which the judicious application of a small saving can se-
cure through this Society.

LIFE ASSURANCE.
The new principles on which pis Society is founded bring the
benefits of Life Assurance, hitherto almost exclusively confined to
the upper classes, within the reach of all. It provides against the
contingency of misfortune during life, as well as against the risk of
death; and even affords to the Assured a fund out of his premiums
on which he can at any time operate, as his circumstances may re-
quire. It thus affords to the industrious and prudent of all classes
the greatest facilities and most powerful encouragement to lay up a
certain provision for the future.
Among other advantages the Assured will enjoy the following:
1. Moderate rates of Premium consistent with security; be-
sides the guarantee of half a million of capital.
2. No entry-money.
3. Power of converting the policy at any time into a payment in
cash—a new policy—or immediate—or deferred Annuity.
4. After five years, two-thirds of payments on elapsed policies,
returnable at death.
5. The Assured, on complying with the conditions of the office,
may, at any time, borrow two-thirds of all previous payments, and
the amount of any declared bonus.
6. Two-thirds of the entire profits on the Life Assurance, and
on the investment of the Guarantee Fund, divided annually among
the insured, and at their option paid in cash, added to policy, or
applied in reduction of future premiums.
7. Gre it facility in effecting insurances—Premiums payable by
one payment, or Annually, Half-yearly, Quarterly, or Monthly, or
on the increasing or decreasing scale.
8. Females assured at one year less than their actual ages.
9: Relaxation of restrictions on travelling beyond the limits of
Eurore, except to places specially enumerated and a policy in force
seven years not forfeited by suicide.

" We cannot," says one of our leading Reviewers, .‘ but re-
gard Mr. Kidd as the MOST successful of modern Publishers ;
and when we take into consideration the immense number, as well
as the great and interesting (we may add, extraordinary) variety of
the publications—no two of them being in any way alike—that
have emanated from his fertile pen, we knew not which to admire
most, his tact or his talent. The handsome manner in
which the respective books are got up, and the low prices at which
they are issued, effectually prevent competition, both at home and
abroad ; and prove their proprietor to be an. able General' in
every sense of the word. * Mr. Kidd has courted popularity,
and he has long sinee,obtained it in (we believe) every quarter of
the globe." •

COLONIAL MARKETS.

We have no public sales to-day whatever, and by private contract very
little stirring. The imports continue light. The continued dullness In
this department is occasioned not by the market being oppressed with
sales, but because there are no commodities to purchase, but solely from
a cessation of the demand. The sales advertised for the week are light.
Mauritius and Bengal Sugar, and Mocha Coffee, are the chief. For
to-morrow we have 5,814 bags of Mauritius Sugar, 2,557 of Bengal,
542 bales of Mocha Coffee, and 100 bags of Malabar Ginger.

TEA SALE.

This sale, which we daily reported last week, progressed to.day rery
heavily, indeed increasingly heavy. We should say that about one-
third of what is put up sells now, and out of the 179,000 packages ad.
vertised, about 55,000 had now passed. The hammer prices today are
lower than last day's sale, and may be quoted now at ld. to 2d. per lb. on
an average all round lower than the prices of last sale, but still these
prices are about those of the previous market. The attendance of the
trade continues good.

NEGRO SLAVERY.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The position taken up by those who have opposed the im-
mediate abolition of negro slavery is untenable—consequently
the arguments brought to support it are futile and ill founded.
A contract is said to have been entered into with the planters
at the time of the passing of the Bill in 1833—an implied
engagement on the part of the Government and Legislature
not to set the slaves entirely at liberty before the expiration of
the time mentioned in that Act. Now, in the first place, the
nature of the transaction precludes the possibility of any con-
tract expressed or implied ; secondly, if a contract has been
entered into it has been broken by the planters. In order to
constitute a contract, it is necessary that the contracting par-
ties should have a right to the subject of the contract, other-
wise the contract is a nullity, as far as regards a third party
whose interest is affected by it. Now in the particular case
before us neither of the supposed contracting parties
had any right to that which they were contracting
for. The planters had no property in the negroes,
except one, derived from a barbarous and revolting cus-
tom ; the legislature his no right over the liberty of
any of those under its controul, if they have not forfeited that
liberty by infringing the laws enacted for the advantage of the
community. How then can we imply a contrary, when neither
of the parties were in a situation to enter into one ?
But supposing a contract to exist—it has been broken, bar-
barously and cruelly broken, by the planters—putting the case
in the strongest way possible in their favour, allowing the ap-
prenticeship system to have been part of the price stipulated
for the ransom of the negroes, there has been a failure of the
consideration on their part. That consideration was the bet-
tering of the condition of the slaves during the term of their
apprenticeship, and a total liberation at the end of a certain
period of time. But what is the fact—has the condition of
those wretched objects of sympathy been ameliorated ? It is
infinitely worse than it was before the passing of the Act of
1833. The same cruel punishments are inflicted—the time of
labour is increased—the allowance of food is diminished—the
slave-master is no longer restrained by the selfish fear of in-
juring his proierty in wasting the negro's strength ; his only
object is to make as much as lie can o the short time during
which he is yet entitled to the compulsory labour of his victim.
But the planters, it is said, arc entitled to compensation.
If any compensation could make up for loss of liberty and the
cruelty to which the negroes hsve been subjected, it should
come from the ill-gotten hoards of those who have enriched
themselves at the expence of the liberty and blood of their
fellow-creatures. E. S. T.

A young man of a melancholy appearance, named
Chayers, went on the night of Friday last to lodge at the
Artichoke, White Hart-street, and ordered a pint of beer,
which he carried to his room, for the purpose, as he said, of
drinking during the night. He gave positive orders that no
one should trouble hini until ten o'clock the next morning
and on going to the bedroom about eleven o'clock on Saturday.
he scarcely exhibited signs of life. Information was sent to
the station-house , Bow street, and Mr. Macraw, accompanied
by police-constable Milton, 10 F., went to the place, and on
the table in the room they found a bottle which had been
filled with laudanum, and from his pocket another was taken.
A quantity of arsenic was likewise found, wrapped in a piece
of paper. It was now evident that he had taken poison, and
Dr. Walker was called, who gave him an emetic. He was
then conveyed to Charing-cross Hospital, where he now re
mains, In his pockets were found a large number of letters
from some " fair ladye," with whom it is supposed he had
quarrelled.

such stuff perpetrated since the days of the Della Crusca
writers! It is fair to add that the criticism entitled "On
the present state of Poetry" is of a far superior order,
though even here there is much that is shallow and super-
ficial. The " Theatrical Notice of the Month" is well-
written, and many of the strictures judicious; but why in
order to write up Covent Garden, is it necessary to write
down Drury Lane ? Cannot Macready be eulogized but
at the expence of Charles Kean ? We dislike these direct
comparisons. They wear an invidious aspect. By far the
ablest article in the Number is the essay " On Public
Opinion."

IFRAZER'S MAGAZINE.
This is a better Number in every respect than any which
has appeared for some months. The " Poetry of Shelley,"
the " Yellow Plush Correspondence," and the " Stric-
tures on Pictures," though as widely different from each
other as can well be imagined, are, each in its peculiar
vein, excellent. We have not before met with so candid an
examination of Shelley's metaphysical opinions, selected and
compared from passages in his poems, and in which there
was so little to object to on the score of mere cant, as we
have found in the few pages which Fraser, in a spirit of en-
larged and enlightened criticism, has this month devoted to
the subject. The " Strictures on Pictures," in which the
present Exhibition of the Royal Academy is most
amusingly criticised, is in the form of a letter
" from Michael Angelo Titmarsh, Esq., to Monsieur
Anatole Victor Isidor Hyacinthe Achille Hercule de
Bricabrac," a brother painter in Paris. " Our Club at
Paris" is simply a dull affair. It is too serious for carica-
ture, and too flippant and wordy for grave criticism.
Nothing " is a cutting review of a work which has ap-
peared in Germany under the title of " The English," by
Dr. Franz Kottenkamp, which professes to embrace a
view of the manners and customs of the
people of this coun-
try. From the specimens quoted it is a most ridiculous
performance, and evidently by an author who knows no
more of society in England than he does of society in Tim-
buctoo. The other articles are of the usual Magazine
order, with the exception of Dr. Maginn's Translations of
the Homeric Ballads, which are continued in this Num-
ber. Few scholars of the present day are so well qualified
as Dr. Maginn for the arduous task of rightly translating
the songs of ancient Greece.

THE Foult-IN-HA No Cf.utt.—On Saturday the first general
meoing of the Four-in-Hand Club took place, and it is understood
that I::,turday will be the club day cluri,:g the season. Upvtards of
forty Noblemen and Gentlemen met at Chesterfield House, and
started fir Topham's Royal Hotel. Richmond, headed by his Lord-
ship. who is deemed their " Chief." The procession was alike
novel and interesting, and did very great credit to the taste of the
managers. The following are the members of the club, and each
subscriber is allowed to introduce three friends, except " The Chief,"
who takes as many as he pleases :
Lord Chesterfield Mr. Villebois Count D'Orsay

were of the first class. It was s tid that Lord Chesterfield had rea-

THE SPORTSMAN.

The Number before us contains two very respectable en-
gravings, one of which is the " Sportsman's Present," and
the other, a portrait of " Maria," which, it appears, was
one of George the Fourth's favourite brood mares. Of
the literary contents of the Number, we have merely time
to say that they are well adapted to the tastes of those for
whose use they are drawn up.

Lord Howard de Walden, ambassador at Lisbon,
