FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The DIRECTORS beg to remind their Friends whose pre-
miums became due at Lady-day, 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 parti-
cipating scale, ONE-HALF OF THE PREMIUMS MAY
REMAIN ON INTEREST AT FIVE PER CENT.
FOR FIVE YEARS, thus enabling a person to assure his
life for 1,0001. on the immediate payment of the premium for
5001. only.
The following 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 5 per cent. ; and should the
policy become a claim in the interim, the amount due will then
be deducted.

The Policies are Indefeasible and Indisputable, unless they
have been obtained by fraudulent misrepresentations.
Any important mistake, or even an unintentional omission,
in communicating information, in answer to the numerous
questions put by other Companies, has the effect of annulling
the policy, and forfeiting the premiums—thus rendering it in
general a matter of uncertainty (until the claim comes to be
made) whether the policy be of any value. The London,
Edinburgh, and Dublin Assurance C.ompany, determined to
obviate whas they consider injustice to the assured, satisfy
themselves upon the various questions proposed by them before
they enter into the contract of assurance, and frame their po •
licies in such terms as to preclude all future questions as td
their validity, and thus render them indefeasible and indisput-
able aocuments of future debt against the Company. The po-
licies of this Company may, therefore, be regarded as certain
available future funds, and as unimpeachab'e and negotiable
documents for pecuniary transactions.
One-half of the Premiums may remain Unpaid for Seven
Years, affording a greater facility for Loan Transactions and
Family Provisions than any other plan which has been sug-
gested—allowing a Policy to be dropped at one-half of the
usual sacrifice—and entitling the Assured at a future period,
when loss of health may prevent him from obtaining a New
Assurance, to continue a Policy for double the amount of the
sum for which he has paid Premiums.
Parties may be assured either upon the participating or non-
participating plan ; the former are entitled to the whole of the
profits upon that branch of the business, and the latter are as-
sured for the lowest premiums compatible with perfect security.
The usual Commission allowed to Solicitors and 'Agents,
and Medical Gentlemen are in all cases remunerated fcr their
reports.

DOUBLE PATENT PERRYAN FILTER INKSTAND.
PERRY and CO. having effected considerable
improvement in their FILTER INKSTAND, have
now the pleasure to annnunce that a Second Patent has been
granted to them for such improvement, which they have united
with their First Patent, under the title of " DOUBLE PA-
TENT PERRYAN FILTER INKSTAND." The eulogy
bestowed on the Patent Filter Inkstand by the public lournals,
and the preference obtained for them over the common Ink-
stands was almost unprecedented. The present novel and sci-
entific method of supplying Clear Ink to the Dipping Cup, and
returning it into the reservoir, is exceedingly simple, the action
being now performed by merely lifting up the lid to obtain a
supply, and shutting it dewn to withdraw it ; in this state it
cannot overflow, whatever may be the change of temperature,
and it is protected from dust. or other injury in any place or
climate. When the inkstand is filled, it is always ready for use,
and the writer will have a regular and daily supply of Clear
Ink for four or six months.
PEREYIAN LIMPID INK.
This Ink has a flowing property peculiar to itself, and does
not corrode Metallic Pens as other Inks.—ln Bottles, 6d., Is.,
