This Association has been formed principally with the view of af-
erding t• gentlemen engaged in GOVERNMENT and PUBLIC
GYFICES,
.BANKING HOUSES, and MERCANTILE ESTA-
BLISHMENTS, a safe and advantageous mode of investing a portion
of their incomes, either by way of deposit, at 71. per Cent. compound
Interest, or in the purchase of freehold er leasehold residences.
The operations of this Society will be regulated by Tables prepared
expressly for that purpose by two eminent actuaries.
The leading principles of this Society are—
. 1, Perfect equality of belefit between all the Members, whether
borrowers or not.
2. Certainty in the amount if advance t• which each Member
wishing to anticipate his Shares will be entitled at any given period
of the Society's existence, with the means of ascertaining precisely
at any date the amount payable to retiring Members, and the value
et the Sharet op/continuing Members.
Members may pay up the whole or any portion of their subscrip-
tions for the ten years, in advance, and diseount, after the rate of 41.
Pm' Cent. per annum, will be allowed for the sums so paid.
Members wishing to withdraw their Subscriptions may do so after
the first year, without fine ; and subsequently to that period corn-
Deund interest at the rate ef6l. per Cent. per annum will be allowed
'Pun the sums withdrawn.
Shares may be transferred free of stamp duties.
NY the plan adopted in this Society new Members entering at
any period, and all Members taking up additional shares, may have
sans advanced to them without paying up arrear 4 of Subscriptions ;
• and the precise amounts that will be advanced either to old or new
Members, are set forth in the Tables, a copy of which will be sup-
plied to every Member. This is manifestly far preferable to the un-
equal at.d objectionable system usually adopted of putting the shares
1,9 to auction, and advancing the money to those who submit to the
largest disoount ; by which means the object of the Legislature,
Which contemplated that each Member should derive precisely the
Same advantage, is entirely frustrated.
The monthly subscription, both to the borrowing and nen-borrow-
ing Members, is precisely the same, and continues the same to the
4 end of the Society; borrowers are, therefore, relieved from the
heavy monthly " redemption fee," and the mutual principle is car-
Tied into-full operation.
N. Member has any ruponsibility beyond the payment of his own
Subscriptions.
Prospectuses and copies of Rules may be obtained at the office of
the Society, 15, Old Broad-street.
Applications for Shares should be addreued to the Secretary, in

THE PROCESSION ON THE THAMES.
TWENTY TuousAND SAILORS !I I
0 I never did Thames en his waters unfold
A eight so imposing—a movement so bold.
Twenty thousand bold mariners—ocean's best gems—
, Assembled en masse en the breast of the Thames.
'Twas astounding to witness the boats and the steamers,
The " bonnie blue jackets," the colours and streamers.
This aquatic procession would cast in the shade
The sights of Queen Bess with her hest cavalcade.
The scene on the Thames was a scene that must claim
A thrill from the heart, be it ever so tame.
And hundreds of thousands of different ranks,
Throng'd Thames's broad bridges and mercantile banks.
The spectacle seem was essenlially one
To bring to the mind Messrs. MOSES and SON,
AS the newly-cla i seamen appeared fore and aft,
A moving assemblage in hundreds of craft.
The smiling spectator must surely have thought,
Of the outfits of MOSES, so skilfully wrought.
Iw'l7 day at the warehouse of MOSES we view,
The sons of the ocean in " jackets of blue,"
And landing how MOSES ant SON can equip,
They never feel inclined to " foresake the old ship."
The scene on the shore was essentially ono
To remind the observer of MOSE; and SON",
Roth ladies and gentlemen show'd in their dress,
A beauty to rival the days of Queen Bess;
And never did Thames on his waters unfold
A sight s,) imposing—a movement so bold.
