ANNUAL DIVISION OF PROFITS.
NIVERS AL LIFE ASSURANCE SO-
CIETY, 1, King William-street, London.
Established 1834.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding
pars is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders
!4rne-fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The
;nsaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of
ul succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen
eontingencies.
I,l4The first division of Profits took place on the 13th of May,
u, when a reduction of 60 per cent. was declared on the
"1141 premiums of all those policies entitled to participation.
The following table will show the operation of the reduction
'nade by the Society

THE FREQUENT ROBBERIES OF

CAUTION.

It having been represented to RIPPON and BURTON that
tveral persons are vending a spurious metal as their NICKEL
SILVER BRITISH PLATE, they assure the Public that
%e Genuine Article can only be had at their Warehouses, 12,
‘„,_ells-street, Oxford-street. The Nickel Silver British Plate
"141‘,„...._,Ilfactured by Rippon and Burton, is, by a chemical process,
,"„ed superior to any other so called, in appearance and
cir""tY; it is equal to silver ; all the articles being solid and

.ll7 to stand the test of that strong acid aquafortis. The
