LIFE ASSURANCE.
Besides the perfect security to the policy holder of a large
paid up capital, and accumulating funds, with moderate rates
of premium, the following is one amongst many of the advan-
tages which belong exclusively to the principles of life assu-
rance and deferred annuities originated by t -e Society, viz.--
Power to borrow, (without delay, expense, or orfeiture) two-
thirds of all premiums paid upon a policy of assurance.
Premium for assuring 1001.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES DEPARTMENT.
By the plan exclusively developed by the Society, a single
deferred annuity is made, nr.t only to answer the same object,
but to equal in amount the entire sum of all the advantages
heretofore only obtained by the middle and industrious classes
by separate investments in Savings' Banks, Benefit SoCieties,
and Loan Banks.
1. A small yearly or weekly contribution will secure the
most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is.
a week) at 20 will at 65 give the policy holder the ct..mice of an
annuity for life of 471. 16s. 6d.: 3941. I Is. in cash; or policy
without further contributions of 466/. at death.
2. Two-thirds at any time lent on deposit of policy, being a
and always available during sickness or want of employment.
3. Two-thirds of all payments returned to representatives in
case of premature death.
The report to the Annual General Meeting of Proprietors,
prispectuses, tables, &c., may be obtained at the office of the
Society, by letter or otherwise, 26, Cornhill, London, or at
any of its Branches throughout the country.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The Directors beg to remind their friends whose premiums
become due at Michaelmas, that no extra charge is made at this
office for the transfer of policies, and that they will be rated
on terms peculiarly favourable to parties insuring.
LIFE DEPARTMENT.
For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a spe•
cific sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower
rates, has been calculated, on which, as well as on the partici-
pating scale, one half the premiums may remain on interest
at five per cent. for five years, thus enabling a person to assure
his life for 1,000/. on the immediate paymen' of the premium
for 500/. For example, on the non-participating scale a man
aged :30 may assure his life for 500/. by an annual payment of
9/. ISs. 4d., and if he can employ the money better in his
trade one half of it may remain unpaid for five years, on his
merely paying the interest till the expiration of that period.
So that, for the trifling sum of five guineas per annum, a com-
fortable provision may be secured for a widow or a family.

The above are the annual premiums for the assurance of 1001.,
one-half of which may remain for five years by merely paying the
interest annually at five per cent., and should the policy become
a claim in the interim the amount due will then be deducted.
N.B.—A Committee of Directors, attended by a medical
officer; sit at the Company's house every Tuesday, from
Twelve to Two o'clock, to grant Assurances, but one Director
is daily in attendance to render every facility to those to whom
despatch may be an object.
J. T. CLEMENT, Actuary.
For the convenience of those residing in the western district
of London and its vicinity, assurances may be either effected
I or renewed with Mr. Joseph Strother, Agent, 3,
