?PEAL TO PUBLIC SYMPATHY
. in BEHALF of the DESTITUTE UNPAID BRI-
rAI AUXILIARIES, late in the SERVICE of the
QUEENS of SPAIN and PORTUGAL.
The heart-rending distresses and persecutions to which the
*timid British Auxiliaries have been exposed from four to six
iearf, whilst attempting to recover their arrears of ray, after
iving effectually assisted to place the Queen of Portugal un
h . and throne to
prevent the Queen of Spain from being
dethroned, 'has led to the Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR of
tendon, and the four following Bankers, assenting to receive
,111Aeriptions in their behalf :
Messrs. SMITH PAYNE and SMITH, Lombard-street.
:Messrs. DRUMMOND and CO., Charing-cross.
Sir CLAUDE SCOTT and CO., Cavendish-square.
- LONDON AND COUNTRY BANK, 71, Lombard-street.
Some idea may be formed of the sufferings which have been
1111_2d are still being endured, when it is considered that from five
' six hundred thousand pounds are due to the claimants. It
!,.t. earnestly hoped that the British public, so ready at all times
3Ympathize with the distress of Foreigners, will not be behind
own countrymen,
on the present occasion, in coming to the rescue of their
iwn countrymen, the victims of treachery and fraud, after
tating genermisly expended their resources, and risked their
Lies in the cause of freedom and humanity. It is confidently
that the claimants will not only receive temporary relief, but
succeed in ultimatel obtaining the most ample redress.

ntunes, may be had, gratis, at Gardiner's, Princes-street,

The County is the only Fire Office which has constantly
made Returns to its Members, and for a long series of years.
These Returns have varied from 10 to 25 per cent. anti have
amounted to upwards of 100,0001.
In the Life Office, nearly the whole of the profits are divided
among the parties insured. Their effect may be judged of
from a Policy taken out by his late Majesty on his own life
for 3,000/., which additions increased to 3,9631.
Upwards of thirty Insurance Offices having been broken up
within a few years, and about fifty new ones having been pro-
jected within the last two or three years, it may be necessary
to observe, that all the substantial advantages promised by such
new Offices have been long realised under the plans and ma-
nagement of the Provident Life Office.
