One of the leading features of this Office will be the Assurance
of Lives for SUMS as LOW as 501., so as to extend more univer-
sally the important benefits resulting from a well-regulated system of
Life Assurance ; at the same time combining in its operations all
the benefits anti general business of similar Institutions.
Another peculiar advantage offered by this Society will be the
ADVANCE of MONEY in SUMS of 2001. and UPWARDS,
either by way of Loan, or on Annuity, subject to the borrowers
ef-
fecting policies with the Company to the amount of such advances,
and guaranteeing the payment of the premiums, as well as of the
princir al and interest, or annuities, by approved security.
The tables of premiums are calculated at rates as low as are con-
sistent with the interests of the Assured anti the safety of the Insti-
tution, and are of a twofold character, the one admitting the as-
sured to participate in the profits, the other securing the original
amount only of the Policy.
The Capital of the Company lo be 500,000/. divided into 20,000
Shares of 251. each, upon which a deposit of 2/. per Share is to be
paid.
Applications for Shares and Prospectuses to be made at the Office
of the Company's Solicitors, Messrs. Lake and Curtis, No. 11, Ba-
singhall-street.

GREAT ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE
UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
S, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, and 2, Charlotte-row, Mansion-

house, London.
This Company, established by lief of Parliament, affords the
most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only requires,
when an Insurance is for the whole period of life, one half of the
very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the
date of the Policy, the other half may remain, subject to the pay-
ment of interest at 5 per cent. annually, to be deducted at, death, or
may previously be paid off at..,convenience. It obviously becomes
easy for a person of very moderate income to secure, by this ar-
rangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time
after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he
may relinquish his policy, .having only paid one half the premiums
for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Com-
panies. Thus a man of '25 years old may, by an annual payment of
281. 16s. 3d. for the first five years, secure to his widow and chil-
dren at his death payment of no less than 3,0001., subject only to
the deduction of 1441. Is. 3d , being the amount of premium un-
paid. This Company holds out, in various other respects, great
inducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is
clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a for-
tune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a
sum which may yield a comfortable provision for his family.

LONDON.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed by the
Proprietor to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, M
London, on TUESDAY, August 28, at Twelve o'Clock, in One Lot,
BARHAM HOUSE,
A distinguished FREEHOLD VILLA, modelled on
THE ITALIAN SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE
in its exterior, and avoiding all the comfortless appearance within
that is too apparent in the Italian provinces. It was purchased some
twelve years since by
THE RIGHT HON. LORD NORTHLAND,
when it had assumed the character only of a minor Villa. By
means of an expenditure that has extended to at least
TEN THOUSAND POUNDS,
and the advantage of extraordinary tact and judgment, it may now
claim to rank high upon the most distinguished abodes of London's
vicinity ; it presents a double front, and it would be somewhat
difficult to proclaim which of the two predominates. A Colonnade
and Veranda enhances the effect, beside affording facility to indulge
in the luxuriant view which encompasses it on every side. The
ensemble is as nearly perfect as a combination of art and nature
can combine, and the delightful illasion is completed by
A SPLENDID CONSERVATORY OF THE NEW
SCHOOL.
The Lawns are adorned by countless thousands of plants and
shrubs. The Parterres and Walks laid out with consummate
taste extending to many acres, adorned by stately timber until it
approaches

triumphantly throughout the fearful season that has passed. The
mansion, by means of a peculiar stove, is warmed by hot water; and
in depth of winter, cold is estranged from this mansion of comfort.

all its glowing beauties, adorned beyWOODLAND SCENERY OF SURPASSING BEAUTY,
and left no room to hesitate. The Villas in the Park, Calverley
Promenade, and the adjacent Buildings, are all completed, with an
Hotel of the first importance, one that will incline most of the Had
Keepers throughout England to hide their:diminished heads.

which, by concentrating the " Market Business," will afford both

so much required by the increasing population of this favourite and
thriving place.

THE ARCHITECTURAL FORM
of the Market is in good taste, and the building
SOLID AND MASSIVE.
Indeed there is a combination of judgment and expense rarely to be

is intended for other and more useful purposes,
AS A CORN EXCHANGE and CONCERT ROOM;
