DIVISION OF PROFITS.
At the first Septennial Meeting of this Company, held on the lith
March last, a BONUS, averaging 23 per cent. on the amount of
pre miuth s paid, was declared on Policies entitled to participate in
Profits.
Four-fifths, or 80 per cent. of the entire Profits of the Company,
will at future divisions be appropriated to all Assurers entitled to
share therein.
Every advantage is offered by this Company to Assurers.
On Policies taken out for the whole term of life, one-half of the An-
nual Premiums thereon may remain unpaid for five years.
Parties Assured with the Company are allowed to reside in many
of the Colonies without additional charge, and the Premium required
for the East or West Indies, and other extra risks, is more than
usually moderate.
By a plan Originating with this Company, great security is offered
to parties Assuring the Lives of others.
Advances continue to be made to Assurers on Assignable Property

sureties.

CHAT IN
CHESTEIt
OR, THE GRACES OF TILE RACES.
Two comrades in Chester, called Harry and James
(For I think 'twill be better to mention their nameS),
Had a sociable chat as they walk'd in the
Which chat I would humbly beg leave to transpose.
What thousands (said Barry) assembled to see
The race for the Cup on the spacious " Roodeg."
What numbers of beautiful lasses attended !
Tne sight they presented was perfectly splendid.
Their sweet pretty faces,
And personal graces,
Added much to the beautiful sight at the Races.
" Very true (said his friend, with a nod), very true !
But did you not notice the gentlemen too.
I am told that the gentlemen (fifty to one)
Were drest in the fashions of MOSES and SON ;
And really such fashions I never beheld—
Such garments were certainly never excell'd,
My eye was so won
IV MOSES and SON,
That I look'd not to see how the race would be run."
" Well, well (exclaim'd Harry, with jocular nudge),
Do you fancy that you are the fitly good judge ?
I never saw fashions so much to my mind,
Nor dresses of such a superior kind.
The Over-Coats made me so anxious for one,
That I've sent up an order to MOSES and SON.
The fact of the case is
itchth addede se 'V
(In spite of fair faces),
Thawere
mtituecgh to racethes late Chester Races."

Sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several mouths' duration, during which period his hair con-
*armed to come off, till he became, to use his own tcrtns, " as perfectly
bald as if his head had been shaved;' and the Rev. J. E. Daniel,
then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for
his lost hair. Under these circumstances' he was induced to try the
effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying
to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was
used the growth recommenced, and he has new to bo. st of a very
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. This fact speaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS
Copy of a Letter from Mr. Blake, Kingseliffe, Northampton-

ihire:—

"Kingscliffe, January 21, 1847.
" Sir, —Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic Gout.
I procured the best advice possible, but without deriving benefit ; and
the doctors recommended me to go to the Stamford Infirmary, where
I continued twelve weeks, and left it without obtaining any benefit,
and all hope of relief had vanished.
" This hopeless state of things continued until a friend advised me
to try Blair's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock,
of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I
got rid of one crutch. I then sent for another box, which enabled
me to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had
such an attack.

" lam much exposed to cold ; but, whenever I feel symptoms 01
attack, I have recourse to the Pills with universal success. _ _

4. I recommended the Pills to a gentleman who resides in this
neighbourhood, and he has derived the most essential relief there-
from, and is now never without them.

" You may publish this for the benefit of those similarly afflicted.
"I am, Sir, your obedient, humble servant,
" SAMUEL BLAKE,
"Smith and Farrier."

The never-falling effects of BLAIR'S 0017-T and RHEUMATIC
PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have
secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or
present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but restore
to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are
equally speedy and certain in Lumbago, Sciatica, Pains in the Head
or Face, and indeed of every Rhematie or Gouty affection ; in fact,
sucn has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this
medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it, and there is
scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom, but contains many
grateful evidences of its benign influence.

Kingdom. Price 28. 9d. per box.

SCARCITY OF GRAIN IN ITALY.
The following is a translation of a Sovereign decree,
lately issued by his Majesty
the King of the Two
Sicilies

DECREE.
Ferdinand 11., by the grace of God King of the king-
dom of the Two Sicilies, of Jerusalem,
&c., Duke of
Parma, Placentia, Castro, &c., Hereditary Grand Prince
of Tuscany, &c., referring to our royal decrees of the
26th of January and the sth of February of the current
year, which prohibit the exportation from the Two
Sicilies of wheat, grain,
peas, &c., of all kinds ;
Considering that, notwithstanding the prices of those
articles still continue to rise ; wishing to favour the
introduction of corn and meal, &c., into the kingdom ;
upon the proposal of our Minister the Secretary of State
for Internal Affairs, and having heard the advice of our
ordinary Council of State, we have resolved to decree,
and we hereby decree, as follows :

A.RTICLE L
Royal decree of the 30th of November,lB24,
The Custom-house duty on wheat, g
meal, &c., established by the tariffs approved by the
rain, peas, and
until the end of May next ensuing.
ARTICLE 11.
Our Ministers, the Secretaries of State of Internal
Affairs and of Finance, and our Lieutenant- General in
our Royal dominions beyond the Faro, are charged with
the execution of the present decree.

ROBBERY IN AN
OMNIBUS.—On Monday evening
Mrs. Heming, of No. 93, Alpha-road, St. John's Wood,
had her reticule cut from her arm whilst riding in an
omnibus from the Bank to Charing-cross, by, it is supposed,
a lady-like female, who quitted the omnibus suddenly near
Exeter-hall, followed by a well-dressed man, having the
appearance of a foreigner. The bag contained three 101.
Bank of England notes, twelve sovereigns, and about 14s. in
silver, and a gold locket with flaxen hair, and the portrait of
a gentleman bearing a crest, a lion rampant, with the motto
of L'Esperance.
REDUCTION Or RENT.--We understand that Mr.
Burn, factor on the estate of Stewarthall, has intimated to
the tenants that the trustees have granted a handsome re-
duction of rent this year. This is following up what the
late worthy landlord of Stewarthall publicly announced be-
fore his death—that should the Legislature throw open the
ports, and he had no doubt but they would, he would be
amongst the first to let down his rent, and also to- throw
the restriction of maximum and minimum to the winds; and
judging from the praiseworthy manner in which the trustees
have acted, we have no doubt but they will follow up the
remainder of the late worthy gentleman's promise.—Stirling
Journal.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]---BRUSHES, NEW INVENTION
THE TRIPLE HAIR BRUSII.—One stroke of this is equal to
the effect of one penetrating, five small-toothed combs, and
one even cut brush. The Double Anti-Pressure Nail Brush,
which does not divide the quick from the nail, no pressure
being required, and thoroughly cleans and polishes the nails in
a tenth part of the time of any other method. The new Tooth-
pick Brush, which entirely enter between the interstices
of the closest teeth i marks, .1, hard ; No. 2, less hard ;
No. 3, middling; No. 4, soft, at Is. each, or los,

warranted never to come out —the medium Shaving Brush,
between the usual badger hair and bristle brush, being a se.
lection of the strongest hair only from the badger skin.—The
above articles are the inventions of Ross and Sons, 119 and

imitating them will be proceeded against.
