The leading features of this Office are,—
As low rates of premium for ordinary risks as is consistent with
safety and security.
Assurers may contract to pay their Premiums either in one sum,
in a given number of payments, in annual, half-yearly, or quar-
terly payments, or in any way most suitable to their circumstances
and convenience.

Officers in the Army and Navy are charged the ordinary rates
until cancel into active, colonial, or foreign service, when an in-
creased rate is required in proportion to the specific risk incurred ;
or assurers may take out at once policies to cover all risks at an
even additional rate.

Perions afflicted, or who are going, beyond the limits of the Con-
tinen;, of Europe, are likewise assured at moderate Premiums.
The rates for short assurances, more especially to enable Equi-
table Policy holders to secure the 1840 bonus, are very low.
Prospectuses, and all requisite information, may be obtained at
the Office. Proposals can be passed daily.
M. SAWARD, Secretary.

R. E. SOLOAIONS, OPTICIAN to the
Royal Eye Infirmary, patentee of the Amber Spectacles,
Lee., 36, OLD BOND-STREET (nearly opposite the western
Exchange), whose recently invented and highly approved SPEC-
TACLES may be adapted to the various circumstances of indivi-
due, cases appertaining to defective vision. Whilst these Specta-
cles excel all others, as regards their very superior refractive pro-
perty, and their comparative lightness, they possess the further ad-
vantage of modifying bright and strong light, which, at the same
time, is transmitted through the various humours of the eye, so as
render vision most perfectly distinct, conveying also a sense of cool-
mess and pleasure to the organ, with the additional equally impor-
tant recommendation of being FREE from the pernicious attributes
of common glasses ; in short, the qualities of Mr. Solomon's Spec-
tacles admirably adapt them to afford ease and comfort, by protect-
ing and strengthening the eyes, and to extend to vision the most
decided and instantaneous relief that art can accomplish. Their
superior efficacy is attested by the following eminent professors, who
(among many others) have given them their unqualified approba-
tion :
F. Tyrrell, Esq., Surgeon to the Opthaimic Infirmliry, Moor-
Sir Benjamin C. Brodie, Bart., F.R.S., Saville-row.

Surgeons.
