In addition to the subscribed Capital of 300,0001., the Assured have
the security of the Company's rapidly increasing income, and an
accumulating Assurance Fund invested in Government and other
available securities, of considerably larger amount than the esti-
mated liabilities of the Company.
The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale compatible
with the security of Assured and the stability of the Company,
thereby, in effect, giving to every Policy Holder an immediate and
certain Bonus without risk, in lieu of the deferred and frequently
delusive prospect of a periodical division of Profits.

on Monday, the 16th day of February, in terms of the Act of Parlia-
ment by which the :2ompany is constituted.
EAGLE HENDERSO).T, Esq., merchant, in the chair.
The statements as to the progress of the business submitted by
the I)ireetors en this occasion contained a moot gratifying account
of the continued prosperity of the Institution.
It was reported:—
That 69$ new policies had been issued during the year ending
15th Nov. 1815.
That new assurances had been granted to the extent of 446,026/.

of the business during the same period.
That assurance proposals had been declined during the year ending
15th Nev. 1845, to the number of 149, the whole.oroposals made to
the Company during the year being 847.
That the claims on the Company by death, which had arisen dur-
ing the year, had been considerably under the calculated amount
yrovided for by the tables.
That the Company's extensive Accumulated Fund continues to be
invested on unexceptionable security, at rates of interest considerably'
exceeding those assumed as the basis of the Company's calculations.
The Chairman congratulated the meeting on these satisfactory
results, and in doing so drew particular attention to tbe great in-
crease in the business of the Company, and to the high position which
the' Institution now occupies, as the chief Life Assurance Company
established in Scotland on the guarantee sytem.

application, as for its mild and soothing operation, in thoroughly
purifying the skin of all redness, pimples, spots, freckles, tan, and
diseolourations ; producing a healthy freshness and transparency of
complexion ; and an admired softness and delicacy on the kands,
arms, and neck
In cases of chilblains, chapped skin, or incidental inflammation, it
13 pre-eminently successful, and gentlemen after shaving will flhd it
allay all irritation and tenderness of the skin, and render it soft,
smooth, and pleasant. Balmy, odoriferous, and creamy, its purifying
and refreshing properties have obtained its exclusive selection by the
Court and the Royal Family of Great Britain, and those of the Conti-
nent of Europe, together with the "elate" of the aristocracy, and

"haute voles:'
Its high reputation induces unprincipled shopkeepers to offer the
spurious " Kalydors" for sale, composed of mineral astringents,
utterly ruinous to the complexion, and by their repellant action en-
dangering health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to see
that the words "Rowland's Kalydor" aro on the envelope (an en-
graving of exquisite beauty from a steel plate by Messrs. Perkins,
Bacon, and Co.) and that A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Hatton-

Sub-Committee No. 3.

This Committee resumed its sitting at the usual hour this morning.
Present, Mr. Charles Buller, who was in the chair ; Mr. Thornely,
Mr. Aldam, and Mr. Stansfleld.

OXFORD, WITNEY, AND CHELTENHAM.
Some additional proofs of a• formal nature, which were not forth-
comingat the former sitting of the Committee, were adduced in this
case, after which the allegations of the petitioners against the Bill
were proceeded w:th.
Several allegations that the books of reference were incorrect,
in as far as they assigned the ownerships of certain fields,
closes, and woods, in the parish of Dowdeswell, through which the
line is proposed to pass, to parties who had no title in the property,
were made out to the satisfaction of the Committee, but the promoters
afterwards called a witness to prove thatthe error, if there were any
ai all, was attributable to a party who resided in the parish, and
whom they employed to supply them with the names of the owners
and occupiers of the land in Dowdeswell proposed to be intersected by
the line.
A number of other objections of a like character were brought for-
ward, but they were explained away by the promoters, who stated
that the errors originated la the slipping of the type on the plans and
sections.
Another objection was urged by Mr. John Pinnell, the owner and
occupier of land in the parish of Westnell, in Oxfordshire, who
proved that no application had been made-to him by the promoters
ou or before the 31st of December last, in respect of that portion of
his property proposed to be taken for the purpose of the railway. He
admitted having rece'ved a notice from the Oxford' and Didcot Com-
pany, but it idno way related or alluded to the present scheme.
The agent for the promoters was understood' to explain that the
Oxford and Didcot line was connected with the present scheme, and
the name of the former was Introduced bath the notice served upOn
Mr. Pinnell by mistake.
Another allegation made out was that one of the sheets of the
books of reference deposited with the clerk of the peace for the county
of Oxford was missing, and several 'others of a less important cha-
racter were proved to the satisfaction of the Committee.

WORCESTER AND PONT'S DYNT.LAEN.
This was the first case brought under the consideration of the
Committee. It had been postponed from a former day, to enable
the Parliamentary agent (Mr. Burke) to argue the point
whether there had not been a non-compliance with
the standing orders in consequence of the promoters of the Bill
having put in a declaration instead of a subscription contract for the
raising of the necessary funds, and which, in the opinion of the-
Committee, was not sufficient, inasmuch as a portion of the promo-
ters (the Great Western Company) could not be compelled to proceed
with the undertaking.
Mr. Strutt and Sir Wm. Heathcote (the chairmen of two other
Railway Committees) attended specially to hoar the arguments
and Join in the decision of the Committee.
Mr. Bufme argued the point at great length, and concluded by
hoping that if the Committee decided against him, they would permit
the promoters to substitute the required contract in place of the de-
claration.
The room was cleared, and after the lapse of an hour and a half we
were re-admitted, when the next Bill on the list was called for with-
eut any reference being made to this by the Committee. We were
subsequently infonnet that it was the determination of the Com-
mittee to communicate their decision to the agent on Thursday.

Mr. Farm said that the promoters of the Bill were
bound to have served all the parties when they were, as In the
present case, In the United Kingdom, but instead of that they served
only one of the parties who was at that time in Cheltenham, and dis-
tant from one of the brothers over 100 miles, and from the other 40
