AS manhood approaches; the human form, COUD
tenancy, voice, and' the whole Intellectual character,
undergo a revolution. Love is the•eod and sum of life, creating
images after image of ideal • perikiioss. Main thepresent state of
society, pure aod virtuous enjoyment is often postponed and oh.
structed, till the excess of youthful imPetu.oslty impels to a coarse
of wild and injurious indulgence, and •tne mind becomes painfully
harassed by alternations of feark, disgust, and In this state
relief is perhaps sought from the inexperienced, perhaps from the
ignorant ; in either case at the eriPense of heal:h, that being only
palliated which should have been eflectually'cured. . Here we propose
to step in and rescue the victim- of unwise indulgence from the
pangs of remorse, disappointed hope, and disease; and we .pledge
ourselves to eradicate every taint of syphilitic poi, 5,., And to restore
to its wonted energy every relaxation of the genera'ive economy,
whether from this or other -catises, *hereby the , eigtos, manhood
shall have become impaired; equally comer:lran. , unfeeling emey-

FIRE DEPARTMENT.

The Directors bog to reeninst their friends whose proraiures
become due at Chi istmas, that no extra charge is made at this
office for the transfer of policies, aid that they will be ratesi
en terms peculiarly favourable to parties insuring.

LIFE DEPARTMENT.
While this Society enables a person to provide for his family
after his death, it also affords the power of making provision for
himself during life, by granting annuities, either immediate,
deferred, or survivorship.
Every member assured for the whole term of life, when
?alley shall have existed three year., will be entitled to a pro-
portional share of, the quinquennial profits, which may be ap-
plied dither by additions to their respective policies, or in re-
siltation of the premiums thereafter to booms payable.
Assurers may pay their premiums in any way moat suitable
be their circumstances, either quarterly, half-yearly, or an-
nually, and one-half the premium may, if required, remain ion in-
West at it par sent. for five years,
N.B.—A' Committee of Directors, attended by a medical
officer, sit at the Company's house every Tuesday, from
Twelve to Two e'eleck, to grant Assurances, but one birector
is daily in attendance to render every facility to those to whom
dispatch may be en object.
For the convenience of those residing in the western district
of London and its vicinity, assurances may be either effected
or renewed with Mr. Joseph Strother, Agent, 3, Horton-
street, Kensington. J. T. CLEMENT, Abtuary.

STATE OF TRADE.—Although there was, as
might be expected from the season, hut little demand
yesterday, the market was decidedly firm and elastic ;
and all descriptions, both of goods and yarn, were firmly
bald for the full prices of last week, or, in some cases,
for an advance ; and very little inclination was sho►v n
to make contracts for future delivery, which were rather
freely offered by the buyers.—Manchester Guardian.

THE BREAD TAX GREATER THAN ALL THE
STATE TAXES.-- Now, supposing that the effect of
the Corn-laws be to raise the price of grain in this
country lOs. a quarter higher than it would be if
foteign grain were allowed to be freely imported (and
this is a very moderate computation),lt follows that the
burden of the bread tax is equal to the enormous sum
of 60„000,000/. per annum, a sum far exceeding the
whole expenditure of the Government of the country,
including the interest on the national debt ! A n
Corn-law Circular.
