In the LIFE DEPARTMENT, a Bonus was declared in June
1829, exceeding one per cent. per annum on the sums insured, on an
average of the different Ages ; and two subsequent divisions of nearly
equal amounts were made up to Christmas 1835 and Christmas 1842.
On an average of the three divisions the Reversionary Bonuses added
to the several Policies at the end .of every seven years amounted to
about 27 per cent. on the total premiums paid thereon during those
seven years, and the whole amount of Bonuses allotted at the three
Septennial divisions exceeded 530,0001.
Loans granted on Life Policies to the extent of their values, pro-
vided such Policies shall have been effected a sufficient time to have
attained in each case a value not under 591.
In the FIRE DEPARTMENT, a Return of profit was declared
on the 4th of June, upon the premiums received on all Policies
which had been in force seven years at Christmas 1844, and the same
is now in course of payment daily (Friday and Saturday excepted),
between the hours of ten and three o'clock, at the Head Office ; and
also by the Agents in the Country Districts.

EMIGRATION AND COLONI-
ZATION.
A meeting was held yesterday at the Egyptian Hall,
Mansion House, "for the purpose of adopting resolu-
tions for providing the. ministrations of religion and the
means of education for our emigrant countrymen in the
British colonies." The hall was crowded to excess with

adequate proportion to that vast revenue. If but one
tollbooth part of the private incomes of the people of
country were but contributed, they would 'have a
fund more than sufficient, for all their purposes. With
these observations he would conclude, by moving the
adoption of the resolution in the form he had suggested.
Mr. E. BARING, M.P. seconded the resolution. In
doing so, he said he feared it would be presumptuous it:
him to add anything to what had fallen from the Right
Rev. Prelate upon this subject, even if he could do ao ;
but he had not, he regretted to say, acquired as much
information upon the subject as he could %ish, and there
fore he would content himself with seconding the reso-
lution.

The resolution was then carried unanimously.
The Right Rev. the Bishop of JAMAICA proposed the
next resolution. He said he felt happy at the honour
that had thus been conferred upon him ;
but he feared
he should appear to. great disadvantage before this
meeting after the admirable addreses they had heard,
not only by reason of the physical disability under
which be laboured, but also from the fact of his natural
inability to do justice to the subject. But he would ob-
serve, that he had travelled over hundreds of miles of
the Canadas, over which were scattered, thinly and dis-
tantly-to be sure, the population, who knew nothing of
the presence of either church, ministers, or teachers. In
the great district of Nova Scotia also there were only 47
missionaries. In New Brunswick, a country as large Lib
Ireland, there were but thirty ; and in Newfoundiand,
with a population of 100,000, there were but twenty-
seven missionaries. In fact, they had altogether but
three hundred, while they required at least double that
number. He hoped then that Englishmen would never
let it be said that their countrymen in distant lands were
lost by a spiritual -fasnine.—(hear.) The Right Rev.
Prelate concluded by proposing the following resolu-
tion :—" That the pour labourers and workmen, who
are compelled to seek an independent subsistence foe,
themselves and their families in the colonies, and are
thus deprived of the advantages provided fur them at
home, in their.own parish church and school, have a
strong claim on their countrymen for help, in providing
themselves and their children with the ministrations of
religion and the means of education."
Lord Jose RUSSELL came forward to second the
resolution, and was received with loud cheering. Ile
said, he rose to address this meeting, not only as being
connected with the city of London as one of its re-
presentatives in Parliament, but likewise as one who
recently held a situation under the Crown, which gave
him many opportunities of knowing the situation of their
colonies ; and that position also afforded him the means
of learning how valuable were the efforts that had been
made by this society for the diffusion of the Christian
of givivg to the poor la-
religion in those colonies.—(Hear.) It was, therefore,
with great pleasure that he rose to second a resolution
v
to seek 411

compelled
independent subsistence for themselves and their fami-
lies in the colonies, and were then deprived of the ad-
vantages provided for them at home in their own parish
church and school. The Right Rev. Prelate, who had
just addressed the meeting, had spoken most tru'y of
those advantages, while the labourers of this country,
who were compelled to seek employment in a
distant land would be driven from religious
instruction ; and he (Lord J. Russell) had recently
received from the Bishop of New Zealand a communi-
cation to the effect that that Right Rev. Prelate had
heard a report to the effect that the labourers and others
who had gone out to that colony from Devonshire, were
calling loudly for religious assistance and instruction.—
(Hear, hear.) Those men, when at home, were accus-
tomed to hear the sound of the bell of their village
church on the Lord's-day, and to hear the Gospel from
their village pastor ; and in the hour of sickness and
distress, to receive religious instruction and consolation
from their parish clergyman.—(Hear, hear.) And in
the event of any temporal accident or misfortune, they
were accustomed, in the firs instance, to have recourse
to their clergyman for such temporal aid as he had it in
his power to give.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") Was
it wonderful, then, that such men should feel, in
going out to a distant foreign land, desirous to
have these comforts of their spiritual welfare continued
to them ?—(Hear, hear.) Was it wonderful that they
shoal wish to see their clergy and their church esta-
blished in that•land, and have the same instruction, and
receive the same assistance, which in their homes in
their native land they had been accustomed to and re-
membered with so much affection.—(Hear, hear.) He
hoped lie would be permitted, in speaking upon this
subject, to allude to the state of the people of other
nations, who had not had the blessing of knowing what
the revealed gospel was; and of other nations, which
though having the revealed gospel, had not the means of
receiving instruction upon it. There were some lines in
Homer, describing the foundation of a colony by a
Pagan, who built houses and surrounded. the town with
walls, and dried up the fields, and built a temple.—
(Hear, hear.) Was it not plain from this that the
founder of that heathen colony, though mistaken in his
worship, yet felt that worship was due somewhere ?
(Hear, hear.) Then let them look at what had been
done by their own ancestors in the time which they
called "barbarous," a time when even the gentry of that
day knew not the simple arts of reading and writing.
Even in those days the landowners took care that in their
demesnes and villages, where dwelt those tenants
who wielded the spear and the shield to
be prepared to fight the enemy, that they should
have their village churches, and their clergymen to in-
struct the minds of those poor men in the adoration of
God.—(Hear, hear.) If such, then, were the feelings of
the Pagan founders of the barbarous chiefs, how much
more anxious should they not be who, in the present
enlightened age of the world, enjoyel so many of the
blessings conferred by a thorough knowledge of the
divine religion,—(Hear.) The position to which he had
alluded as having held under the Crown, made him
aware of the fact, that every other religious denomina-
tion had endeavoured to establish Christianity in the
colonies. The Roman Catholics had their bishops in
them ; and the Baptists, and the Churches of
Scotland, and many other forms of faith,
had made great efforts in this behalf ; and he rejoiced,
that as regarded the Church of England,, the efforts of
the missionaries of thrt church had so far been most fruit-
ful.—(Flear, hear.) Time was, and that not far distant,
when colonies, which then had only five missionaries,
now had fifty, and in a very short time had that advance
been made, and all by the aid of such societies as this.—
(Hear.) And this was the only way in which it could
be done. What in former times was the work of the
State and the Parliament was how the result of the la-
bours of associations such as this.—(Hear, hear.) The
Noble Lord concluded by seconding the resolution.
Mr. R. MANGLES, a New Zealand director, spoke to
the resolution, which was carried unanimously.
The third resolution was proposed by Mr. Archdeacon
MANNING, and seconded by Sir G. LARPENT, and WAS
in these words :—" That the merchants, bankers, and
traders of the city of London, whose commercial inte-
rests are so closely interwoven with the prosperity of
the colonies, are specially called upon to promote their
moral and spiritual welfare." •
The fourth resolution was as follows :—" That a sub-
scription, in behalf of the Society for the Propagation of
the Gospel be now opened ; and that, with a view of
carrying the foregoing resolutions into fuller effect, a
Central Committee of the Society be formed, for the
purpose of soliciting subscriptions: and donations from
all classes in the city of London ; that Special Com-
mittees be formed in each parish or district ; and that
the clergy and churchwardens be invited to act on the
Committees, in their several parishes."
Mr. Alderman COPELAND proposed the resolution,
which having been carried, the usual vote of thanks was
passed to the Lord Mayor, and the meeting separated.

ladies.
The LORD MAYOR took the chair shortly after one
o'clock. After which the platiorm also became imme-

diately crowded.
Amongst the gentlemen assembled were the Bishop
of London, Lord John Russell, Monckton Mines, MA'.,
Lord John Manners, the Bishop of Landaff, the Bishop
of Jamaica, Archdeacon Manning, Alderman Copeland,

&c.
The proceedings of the day were commenced by the
Lord Bishop of LONDON reading prayers, at the con

elusion of which
The LORD MAYOR said it was very gratifying to him
to see so large an assemblage for the purpose stated in
the advertisement. They would have the pleasure of
hearing some of the greatest men in the City upon the
subject, and it was a sense of great gratification to him or
the chief magistrate of the greatest cityiu the world to
have it in his power to place this hall at their disposal for
so useful a purpose, and he had no doubt that the use
they would make of it would be creditable and satisfac-

tore to all parties.—(Hear, hear.)
The Lord Bishop of LONDON then rose, and having
spoken in terms of high eulogium of the active interest
taken in this society by the Lord Mayor and Corporation
of London front a very early period, be proceeded to
read the first resolution, which was :—" That, while a
great present deficiency of the means of public worship
and religious instruction exists throughout the British
Colonies, about 40,000 persons, for the most part of the
poorest class, annually go out us Euiigrants, to settle in
those countries." That rcaolution •he thought might be
objected to by some, and it might appear rather siny.jular
that he should call upon the meeting to vote in the
affirmative of a mere statistical fact. He would rather

transpose the wording. and say, that " while 40,000 emi-
grants went ous annually to their colonies, they were
deficient in the means of public worship and instructif 41,"
a etatement which certainly admitted of proof ; but he
was willing to take the resolution as it stood, and in that

form it involved elements of an argument the most im
portant. If it were true, then, that 40,000 of the people
of this country were compelled annually to leave their
homes for an uncivilised land, the question suggested
itself, what provision was made for their spiritual wel -
lare ?--(Hear, hear.) And when he remembered that
the national income of this vast empire amounted to the
enormous sum of nearly two hunered millions ; when
he looked around at this, the greatest metropolis in the
world ; when he saw this meeting attended by the great
merchants and bankers of the metropoli-, merchants
which had well been called the prince merchants of
the earth ; when he remembered that the
great Creator had blessed the prowess of the British
army and' navy in every part of the globe with con-
quest rememberede

himself, he
happy land? Whea so many of his fellow countrymen
were compelled to forego the blessings of peace and re-
ligion in their native soil for a distant colony, he wished
t
he could say that they always carried out with them even
necessary domestic comforts, but they certainly were
totally bereft of the blessings of religious consolation.
He wished he could say of this country what Spain
boasted of in the early days of her power. He wished
he could say that this great nation, whose dominions
were so vast that the sun never sets upon them, that it
had used, and was using, its power to secure to her
banished children full and ample religious institutions.
But it should be oonfessed with shame and sorrow, that in
this particular they had as yet been sadly deficient. No
doubt reasons might be given for this.; it might be said
that the troubles of the Church were many, that it bad
received many interruptions to its usefulness by the in-
terference of monarchical government ; these reasons
might be assigned for the 'neglect attributed to the
Church. But let them not be too severe, but rather
take into consideration the great amount of respon-
sibility which had of late devolved upon the Church, by
which she was prevented from sending the lighted torch
of truth to the utmost limits of the earth, which she
could easily have done but for those difficulties and in-
terruptions. However, societies such as the present,
which might well be called the arms of the Church,
were well calculated to remove all those obstacles, and
spread the light of the gospel all over the world.
He would call, then, upon all classes to assist those so-
cieties ; and, in doing se, they would be assisting the
Church of which they were members. The Right Rev.
Prelate then read an extract from a recent eommimica-
don received from the Bishop of Montreal, showing the
great deficiency of missionaries in that Bishopric. HQ
then went on to say, that as yet they had been able to
send out to all their colonies only 300 missionaries,

STAINED GLASS.—Mr. Wilmahurst, in a paper lately
read before the Freemason& of the church, observed, that ,
" upon the general introduction of classical architecture, we
find very little stained glass was used for some time, and la-
mentable mistakes were comnimitted, such as removing the
mullions of St. George's Chapel, Windsor, in order to intro-
duce a window from a design by
~ West, which was painted
by Jervais and Forrest, and the window in New College
Chapel, Oxford, painted from Sir Joshua Reynolds's de-
sign, is exceedingly poor in effect, and quite inappropriate in
character for the beautiful building in which it is placed ;
but, on the other hand, with our better knowledge of these
subjects, there is less excuse for the glaring absurdities per-
petrated at the present time, as, for instance, placing a Go-
thic window in the Roman church of St. George's, Hanover-
square.—The Builder.
LADY HESTER STANROPE,—We understand that Mr.
Colburn has in his possession three other volumes of memoirs
of this extraordinary personage, which are said to be still
more curious and interesting than those which have already
appeared.
Oa, ...innday, at the British EtnllaPsy. Paris, was cele-,
"'rated the marriage of Lady A. Hay, daughter of the Earl of Errol,
and Mr. Duff, M.P. There was a most distinguished party of
1 noble and fashionable friends of the bride and bridegroom present.
