The POLICIES are INDEFEASIBLE and INDISPUTABLE,
:he Company being prohibited, by the 84th clause of their Deed of
Constitution, which is duly registered in terms of the Act,-from die •
puting a Policy upon any ground whatever.
The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and
are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify.
HALF PRE MIU3I SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the
premiums, with interest of the retained halves, is required to be paid
for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the
convenience of the assured. or allowed to continue, to form
a deduction from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As-
surance may be relinquished at any time without payment
of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to
assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate,
and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice.
WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are emoted, whereby the security
of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the
assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits.
Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a
specified age, or at their death, whichever shall first occur.
PARTNERSHIP POLICIES are granted, whereby ajoint assurance
effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in-
vested. Oa the death of either, the survivor is benefited by retain-
ing the whole capital, and the representatives of the deceased obtain
their share without having to wait until it cau be recovered from
outstanding debts.
There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the
equator.
No Admission or Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge
made for the Policy beyond the amount of the Stamp.
Claims are payable within three months after proof of the death of
the assured life.
The usual Commission allowed to Solicitors, and also to persons,
approved by the Board, who extend the business of Life Assurance in
connexion with this Company.

their newly-erected and magnificent premises, the

193, High-street, Exeter. 48, Argyle-street, Glasgow.
L. 11YAM and Co., 86, Oxford-street, although well known to the
public, and enjoying an unprecedented share of their confidence, do
not think it would be judicious to depart from their usual system, i
opening a new Establishment, of pointing out and explaining their
capabilities and mode of conducting their business, and likewise the
advantages -to be derived by those *ho honoar them with their
commands.

L. lIYANI and Co., Bq, Oxford-street, have half a century's
experience in business, with unlimited command of capital, and a
range of the most extensive establishments in all the principal towns
of Great Britain in successful operation, thus presenting advantages
of an extraordinary character such as never before were centered in
one firm.

L. HYAM and Co., 85, Oxford-street, save all intermediate
profits ; that which they do not manufacture themselves they obtain
direct from the first makers. By purchasing in this efficient
manner, they effect a saving " in intermediates alone," of at least
20 per cent. ..

L. lIYAM and Co., SG, Oxford-street, have procured for the
bespoke department an extensive and choice stock of Parisian and
West of England cloths, of every shade, colour, and quality. TLe
new materials for trowserings comprise plain and fancy doeskins,
Luekskins; and kerseymeres, suitable either for dress, riding, or
walking. They are superb in texture, beautiful In colour, and of the
choicest design.
L. lIYAM and Co., 86, Oxford-street, have selected from the best
and most celebrated makers, French, Genoa, and ltritieh waistcoat-
tugs, which are remarkably rich, brilliantly varied, of the most
unique and novel styles ; in fact, the Pantectinetheca will comprise
within itself materials for making gentlemen's attire of every d scri p-
irt.the first style of art, and unparalleled in the annals of fashion
and economy.

L. II 1721111 and Co.. SG, Oxford-street, in orde to render the Cutting
Department as effective as p:ssible, have engaged cutters of the
greatest talents, experience, and acknocvleged abilities ; and so satis-
fied are they of their qualifications and certainty of pleasing, that
they give a guarantee to that effect, and, in order to test it, their
patrons have at all times the option of returning any garment which
may in any manner be disapproved of, though previously seen,
approved, chosen, hnd paid for.

L. HYAM and Co., 86, Oxford-street, have elaborately fitted up
the departments of clothing for immediate wear with every requisite,
both useful and ornamental. Hero may be selected, from a stock
exceeding 20,0001. in value, every description of apparel that talent
and ingenuity can devise or invent, consisting of dress and surtout
coats, waistcoats, trowsers, juvenile and servants' clothing,
Sec., at prices that cannot fail to give the most perfect sa-
tisfaction.

L. HYAM and Co., $6, Orford-street, mark every article in

plain, bold, and legible figures, the very lowest selling price,
from which no abatement can be male ; consequently insuring a uni-
fyrin, undeviating, honest principle of business; and any garment
that does not give tha most unqdalified approbation will be ex-
exchanged with pleasure, or If preferred, the motley will be immedi-
ately returned.

LITERARY MATTER of INFORMATION and AMUSEMENT.
The First Volume of ELIZA COOK'S JOURNAL is now com-
pleted, and the Proprietor takes this opportunity of expreßsing her
,ense of the honourable and coveted position which a generous Public
has placed her in.

Many difficulties beset the path of a young Journalist which a
little experience removes, and most earnest thanks are proffered for
the kind indulgence bestowed on the errors which have occasionally
marked the Editorial and Practical Departmeats. The best proof of
the-Ealtor's feeling will be found in her endeavours to render the
Journal far more worthy of the flattering patronage it receives,
and without any fallacious beast, she can promise her Readers a
future supply of sound and valuable matter.
The most gratifying circumstance attending the extensive circula-
tion and cordial reception of the Journal has been in proving that a
large reading public can be icund for a cheap Serial who do not
require unhealthy excitement and mere ephemeral entertainment to
4ain their attention. Eight glad • has -the Editor been to sae that
her plain and simple wish to elevate the morals and invigorate the
mind, bras been graciously -received -for; though -amusement is one
of the chief essentials, not only of periodical literature, but of our
whole lives, it should ever be blended with a principle and purpose
tending to advance hanianity.
From the cheering encouragement already received, the Editor
trusts fully to her friends for the future, and has equal pride and
pleasure in presenting, her First Volume as a Journalist to those
whose generous perceptions stamped her first attempt as a Poet.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
FROM TILE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS D.Y.
TIM ES.—The political fortunes of General Nar-
vaez and of his Administration have scarcely owed
more to his own firmness and resolution than to the
weakness and ineptitude of his adversaries; and if
anything was still wanting to complete his ascendancy
over the councils of the Queen of Spain, that want
his been supplied by the late ridiculous and abortive
attempt to destroy it. Hitherto the Duke of
Valencia has more frequently been compelled to
display his remarkable energy of character by the
attacks of the Liberal party, the intrigues of foreign
Liberal agents, or the commotions of the populace,
than in the defence of the Constituiion. But on the
present occasion the attack came from the opposite
quarter. It was not—as some of our contemporaries
imagined in their inflexible and indiscriminating
antipathy to the only able and successful ruler
whom modern Spain has produc6d—it was not by
an intrigue of Christina, or with any intention of
favouring the return to office of a more popular Go-
vernment, that this transient and whimsical stroke of
policy was attempted. On the contrary, the personages
of the plot were in every particular worthy to have
figured in the ancient comedies and stratagems of the
Court of Spain. A crafty monk and an ecstatic nun
were the principal agents in the transaction ; a Prince
who bears the title of King Consort, and exercised the
functions of a Master of the Household, though sunk
in the torpid superstition and premature decrepitude
of his race, was their tool ; and their object seems
to have been the formation of a Government,
priest ridden in the Cabinet and unrepresented in
the Chambers, without the slightest hold on any
political party, en the army, or on any man of note
or ability, as if it were to show the world how con-
temptible and impossible a thing the absolutism
of such a Court as that of Spain has now become.
We are left to conjecture what means were em-
ployed to obtain the assent of Queen Isabella to so
extravagant a proposal, especially as it was presented
to he'r by one for whose judgment and resolution she
can have 'no respect, and who became her laughing-
stock when he became her husband. Probably the
decision was suddenly taken in one of those freaks of
prerogative or in that state of reckless indifference to
which the Queen of Sepia has sometimes given way.
The Queen-Mother was evidently unacquainted with
the scheme, for she once remonstrated with her
daughter, and doubtless perceived the vast accession
of influence and consideration that such a blunder
would give to a Minister already sufficiently powerful
to be at times the object of her own ,jealousy and
dread. The Ministers themselves appear to have had
wind of the project for their destruction but a short
time before the ordinances of dismissal were signed,
in spite of the household spies which infest every
room in the Palace. It is sc ircely credible that
the luckless nominees of the King, who held the
offices of State during this day of dupes, were pre-
pared for the task which devolved upon them. At
any rate they made no active use of their authority,
and abstained from taking any of those vigorous
measures which would alone have given even a chance
of success to an Absolutist conspiracy. No appeal
'Was made to the army, no arrests took place amongst
those who would be most able and most resolved to
oppose, in the name of the Constitution, so sudden a
coup (Mat. Narvaez himself seems to have felt on
his return to office that such opponents as these were
too paltry to be severely dealt with ; or possibly the
exalted position of the chief conspirator may have
saved the lives of all the rest. The King was at
once removed from the head of the household, and
deprived of the only share of authority over the royal
property he had ever enjoyed. Friar Fulgencio
will probably expiate his offence by severer exercises
of piety in an Andalusian monastery, and the nun
Patrocinia, whose impostures have long been a
scandal to the Church, may " go in peace" to one of
the more retired convents of the Queen's dominions.
But General Balboa escapes with a visit to an African
garrison, and his colleagues may mourn in more than
their former obscurity the momentary aberration of
the prerogative which converted them into statesmen.
The only real gainer in the transaction is General
Narvaez himself, who has shown by his conduct on
this occasion that he is as little disposed to sacrifice
the reviving Government of Spain to a cabal of
fanatical Absolutists as to surrender it to the populace
in the streets of Madrid, or to quail before the
Opposition in the Legislature. It is precisely because
the existing institutions of Spain are upheld by a firm
grasp and a competent power that we venture to hope
they will not again degenerate into anarchy, or sink
under the foolish and perfidious hostility of either
branch of the
_royal family. Hereafter it may be for
the welfare of Spain to have Administrations imbued
with a more liberal spirit, and Ministers of a more
temperate and forbearing character. If the Constitu-
tion last, the gradual progress of events may bring
about these salutary changes, but at present the es-
sential point is that the institutions which may one
day bear these fruits should strike root into the soil,
and that the authority of the laws should be equally
maintained against the crafty emissaries who reach
the royal closet, and against those emissaries, no less
crafty, who foment the discontent of the populace. It
is the privilege of constitutional government, that
although a change of Ministers may be effected by
an indiscreet impulse of the Crown, as we witnessed
even in this country in 1834, their tenure of office
depends on the more serious and deliberate convic-
tions of the nation. It is evident from all the
accounts which have reached us that the fall of
the Narvaez Cabinet was received with equal
dismay and surprise in Madrid, and the
prompt return to office of that Government was
hailed with satisfaction even by its habitual
opponents. For, however, they may desire to over-
throw the Government by the effects of fair debate
and by the will of the Chambers, they are well aware
that if a powerful minister could at once be paralyzed
and expelled by occult influence of the most sinister
and despotic tendency, representative government
would cease to exist altogether. In this instance,
therefore, the triumph of Narvaez has been that of
the Constitution itself, and we trust the lesson will
not be lost upon the Court. His own conduct, when
he became aware of the intentions of the royal per-
son egos, appears to have been dignifiedand judicious;
and it is, perhaps, fortunate that he showed no dis-
position to resort to other measures, which so sudden
and violent a provocation might have suggested to
his resentment. \Ve have long been of opinion that
the Duke of Valencia is upon the whole the Minister
best fitted at this time in Spain to support the throne,
in ?pits of various occurrences so derogatory to its
proper dignity—to preserve the public peace at a period
of frequent revolution—to promote the real welfare of
the nation—and even to lay the basis of more sincere
and complete constitutional government. If at mo-
!tents of danger and comparative weakness he has
shown himself harsh, intemperate, and overbearing,
it must be conceded that when he has found himself
in the full possession of undisputed power he has
shown no mean submission to the arbitrary tendencies
of the Court, and in the important affairs of Rome
and of the tariff he has leant rather to the side of a
liberal policy. In short, he has held his own inde-
pendent course against the intrigues of the French
dynasty and the intrigues of the Spanish confessional;
he has raised the tone and attitude of Spain in her
relations with foreign Powers; under his administra-
tion the army, the fleet, and the finances of the king-
dom have revived; he has crowned his policy by a
general and unrestricted amnesty ; and if his more
rigorous measures have sometimes justified the invec-
tive of his opponents, it must he admitted from the ,
evidence of facts that the results of his policy have
surpassed the expectations of his adherents, and have
almost obliterated those traces of anarchy and civil
war which 40 years of incessant contests had inflicted
on Spain.
AD VERTISER.—Thanks to Lord Roden and
his fi iends, the flames of religious discord have ex-
tend( d once more from one end of Ireland to the
other. At the extreme and central points of Ireland,
that deadly enmity which once disgraced both reli-
gion and humanity, and opposed a hopeless barrier
to all political improvements, again rears its hideous
deformity at the magic bidding of men who have
stultified their understandings and betrayed their
trust. Under the Marquis of Downshire, in_the
North, and two Protestant Associations in Dublin
and the extreme South, the old reign of bigotry
has been re-proclaimed. In the dismissal of Lord
Roden the Protestants of Cork see nothing but
" conciliation and support of Papists and rebels, the
discountenancing of Protestants, and the propa-
gation and spread of ' error and false doctrine. " If
the occasion were not so serious, we could smile at
the childish alarm which these words betray. But
they contain a graver import than this. They re-
veal the feeling of the dominant minority of Ireland,
foitered by past mis-government, and which seems
to have equally perverted their good sense and cor-
rupted theirmorality. For let any dispassionate man
recal for a moment the circumstances which gave rise
to Lord Roden'e dismissal, and consequently to this
address of Cork Association, and what inference
must he draw from those facts, coupled with the lan-
guage above quoted ? Why, he must conclude that
in the mind of an Irish Protestant the act of
dismissing from the bench a nobleman and his
associates, who had encouraged, and afterwards
protected the perpetrators of the most savage murders,
amounts to " conciliation and. support of Papists and
