NOTICE TO HOLDERS OF POLICIES IN THE EQUITABLE
ASSURANCE COMPANY OF LONDON.
UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
No. a. WATERLOO-PLACE, PALL-MALL, LONDON.
The attention et Holders of Policies in the Equitable Assurance
Company of London, is particularly called to the Half-Credit Scales
of Premium of this Compa.,y, by which table the berms to be de-
clared at the nest investigation of the Equitable Assurance Company's
affairs, in January, 1850, m ty be secured at a present Annual p .yment
of one half the rates generally charged by other companies. In the
event of •death the sum insured will be paid, after deduction of the
other half or the rates. Should the life insured survive the deela-
ratlon et the bonus. the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the
Company will renounce all claim for the half premiums which may
be due thereon ' • or, in the event of the party being at that time
in bad health, the policy can be kept up at the full premium of
the age as when first accepted. The above plan, originating with
this Company. was found peculiarly advantageous at the last division
of profits in the Equitable Assume, Company in 1840. when it
was largely adapted, and many of the policies then effected are
still in force, and large bonuses have been added to them on the
scale of the following table :

GI ES EVER SEEN in EUROBE, lauded in Liverpool by the
brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler.
TWO MEN, TWO WOMEN, and a BABY, of the BOSJESMAN
or BUSH T 111 E, from the interior of South Africa, a race that,
from their wild habits, could never befbre he induted to visit a place
of civilization. This opportunity of gratifying the man of science
and the student in zoology has only been obtained by great personal
exertion on the part of the gentlemen who have barLgougleit to Europethemto
England, at an Immense outlay of capital. On the p
a baby was born at sea, thus adding to the great interest that must
be excited by their appearance.

mach has been written by
the missionaries, and the few who have
travelled to that far distant region. They are natives of the country
banter ng the Great Orange River, 1,200 or 1 400 miles from Cape
Town. They exhibit almost as striking an absence of the 'facile tual or
higher tacultira as is observable in tile skull of that mockery of
humanity, the Baboon, while the preponderance of the animal is al-
rrioA equally as great. In every respect they are calculated to excite
the grvatest astonishment, and to confirm to the full those " Tales
of Travellers" which we have certainly been inclined to look upon
with su.picion. We could scarcely have credited that such a race
could be in existence on the earth. That they vre genuine no one
can (lonia ; in proof of which we give the fo lowing extract from a
Cape Town Paper of the 24th December, which we have just re•
ceived :—" We understand the brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler, which
recently loft Table Bay for Liverpool, had on board an unusual kind
of exportation, viz., twe males and two females of the genuine Bush-
man species; they are in charge ~f a Mr. J. G. It. Bishop, who has
been at considerable trouble and expense in procuring them from the
interior. They are authentic specimens of this diminutive and ra-
pidly decreasing tribe of Aborigines, found only in Southern Africa.

REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION. '
A striking instance of the poser of scientific art to remedy
the detects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentleman residing at Wortham, In Norfolk, who, In the year 1842,
on returning from i-iarlestone Market to Weybred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
offered him a wig as a substitute for
!seas of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
*hued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, 1` as perfectly
bald as if his head had been shaved and the Rev. J. E. Daniel,

effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it Is highly gratifying

thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity,
that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new growth is curly and strong.r , This fact speaks too strongly
