The iPOLICIES are Alexander INDEFEASIBLEEs anqd INDISPUTABLE,
the Company being prohibited, by the e4th clause of their Deed of
Constitution, which is duly registered ha terms of the Act, from dis-
puting a Policy upon any ground whatever.
The Rates of Premium aro calculated upon Carlisle mr,rtality, and
are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify.
HALF PRE NIIUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the
Premiums, with interest of the retained halves, is required to be p lid
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 granted, whereby the security
Of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the
assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits.
Some are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaning a
specified age, or at their death, whichever shall first occur.
PARTNERsHIP POLICIES are granted, whereby a joint assurance
effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures tile capital in-
vested. On 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 can 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

CLERICAL, MEDICAL, AND GENERAL
LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY.
INVALID LIVES.
In addition to the ordinary Assurance of Healthy Lives, this So-
ciety, early in the year 824, originated the plan of granting Policies
on the Lives of Persons more or less deviating from the standard of
health. Having issued one-fourth of the whole number of Policies
orl Lives of that description, the Board have recently caused a careful
investigation into this branch of the business to be made. The result
in this investigation has proved highly sati-factory as to the past, and
encouraging for the future. The data derived from long experience
this class of cases, and exclusively available by this society, en-
- • elm
the Directors to state with confidence their conviction that the
?nein now adopted by them for Assuring Invalid Lives is as safe
and beneficial as that upon which the scale for Healthy Lives is con-
structed.

BO ICKSES.
The Two First Divisions averaged 221. per cent. on the Premiums
1?..a1el- The Third, per cent. The FOURTH Bonus, declared
*January, 1847, averaged rather more than 361. per cent. ; and from
the large amount of Profit reserved for future appropriation, and
other causes, the Bonuses hereafter are expected to exceed that
amount.
The Balance Sheets of this Society (containing every item of Re-
ceipt and Expenditure) are at all times open for the inspection of
any of the Assured.

TO TOE DIES.
This lady had the following letters inserted in the "Times" news.
Paper on Aug. 7, 1%46. Reader, remember, this letter was put fat
the Paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Bo'ongh, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herhary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair en her head, after using it about four months,
and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than
vrer was before the baldness appeared.
Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to-the virtues of Mr. G.'s
.egenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an II s, bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
an ee, bet as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it; far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
'adY of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough."
In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, silo w
41‘0138 on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, mime it strong, and
PrevePrevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
nt
drops en your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the
Meet aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
on the crown of the head ; if very bad, repeat It every quarter of an
hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair on children's heads in a few appplications. If used on infants'
heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
Vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
Perephlet of testimonials.
Allietters addressed to William Grimstone, Herbary, Highgate.

" Eighteen Forty-nine will be
A year of great prosp-rity !"
Old Prophecy.
MAY prosperity shine in the year '49,
And banish depression and sadness ;
May frienls that we meet with rapture now greet,
And smile with a halo of gladness.

A happy New Year —may it quickly appear,
Its advent the public wi:l treasure ;
Let brighter days came to each Englishman's home,
They'll hail them with bursts of real pleasure.
From depression's dark trance, one and all then advance,
Like lIYA3I, exert all your duties ;
Ills aim's to surpass—and, at all times he has,
A Stock that is teeming with beauties.

The theme that is running, is—" Good times are cemtligl”
They have come at HYAM'S in ea-nest ;
For though he excels—for " half profits" he sells
The choicest ofClething that's furnished.
Prepare for good times, in the yeL• '49,
To save, use your utmost endeavour,
And delighted you'll cry, whilst the echoes reply,
The Clothing of HYAM for ever !
