CLERICAL, MEDICAL, AND GENERAL
LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS.
Presented at the Annual General Meeting, held at the Society's
Office, on Thursday, March 2d, 1848.
Having, at the Meeting held in January, 1847, presented to the
Proprietors and Assured a very full account of the Society's affairs,
your Directors have but little to communicate on the present oc-
casion.
It may, however, be satisfactory to those now assembled to learn
that, notwithstanding the increased and active competition arising
from the yearly establishment of many new Life Assurance Offices,
the business of this Society still continues to advance.
In proof of this, it will be sufficient to state the following facts :
I. The number of Policies granted oft the lives of Clergymen, a
class of persons generally distinguished for longevity, has been
greater during the year ending June 30th last (the period compre-
hended in this report) than in any one year since the commence-
ment of the Society.
11. The Society's Income, which was 116,3821. in the year ending
June 3Oth, 1846, amounted to 122,906/. in the year ending June
30th, 1847.
111. The number of NEW POLICIES issued within the year has
been 513, and the amount assured thereby 287,079/. Being an
increase, both in the number of pelielts and in the sum assured, over
those of any preceding year.
In conclusion, the DirectorS are happy to inform the Proprietors
that the Society has not in any degree suffered from the great mor-
tality which has prevailed of late throughout the kingdom, the
claims, both in the course of the year ending June 30, 1847, and also
within the six months ending with December last, not having
equalled either in number or amount those of preceding years.
Tables of Rates and Forms of Proposal can be obtained of any of
the Society's Agents, or by addressing a letter to
GEO. 11. PINCKARD, Resident Secretary.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
Copy of a letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, Chemist, Monk Bar,

York,

" To Mr. Thomas Prout,

" 14th Aim, 1847.
" gla,—Having suffered most dreadfully for the last six years from
repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best
medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to
try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. When I commenced
taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were
very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense
agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in
the morning comparatively free from pain ; and before I had finished
the box, I never was better in my life : they have not only entirely
removed the gout, but have also very much improved my general
health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who
have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and tt'ey all speak
highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think
my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effected by your
wonderful medicine, you are at perfect liberty to publish it.
" I am, air, yours respectfully,

The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma-
tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and
certain relief.

They require neither confinement nor attention •f any kind, and
invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other
vital part. _ _ _

_ .. ... ......
Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
Jibe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap..
oointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused-the Droll& source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
/he nature and conseenence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productiNe of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject. _ ._

This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health,
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether aoquired
In early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
'or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination.. n ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal
qnaliflcations that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

ORDNANCE SURVEY OF THE
METROPOLIS.
A special Court of Sewers was held on Saturday, at
the House of Commons, Lord Ebrington in the chair, for
the purpose of taking into consideration a series of reso-
lutions in relation to the Ordnance Survey of the metro-
polis, and of hearing the report of Mr. Austin, consulting
engineer, read, respecting the desirableness of completing
the survey.
Members of the Commission present—The Dean of
Westminster, the Hon. F. Byng, Sir 11. De la Beche,
Mr. Broderip, Mr. Buller' Mr. Leslie, Mr. Bidwell, Mr.
L. Jones, Dr. Southwood Smith, Mr. Chadwick, Mr.
Slaney, M.P., and the Rev. W. Stone.
The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said the
best way to understand the objects which the Ceurt had
in view would be by reading the report of Mr. Austin.
His Lordship then called on Mr. Hertslet, who read the
following document
:
"METROPOLITAN COMMISSIONS OF SEWERS—PROCEED•
INGS WITH RESPECT TO THE ORDNANCE SURVEY.
" Report of Mr. Austin, consulting engineer, read at
the meeting of the General Purposes Committee, March
28, 1848.
" Objections are raised to the execution of the Ord-
nance Survey of the metropolis, on the ground that it is
an unnecessary expense to the public, as there already
exist trustworthy surveys of the area, in detached parts,
which, by proper arrangement, maybe made effectually
to answer the desired end, with little additional outlay.
"In the first place, there exists a general misappre-
hension as to the nature of the work undertaken by the
Board of Ordnance for the survey of the metropolis; and
' in the second place, the objection to its execution, either
has its origin in motives unconnected with the public
interest, or in total want of perception of the immense
eventual economy and advantage that- the immediate
prosecution, of-this mvorks-usiiibsbe tisttntry at large.
" The present arrangement *ith the Board of Ord-
nance is for the preparation of *block plan of the me-
tropolis, with an efficient systeni of levelling, that is to
say, the complete triangulation of the site, by determi-
nation of points, - whereby-their relative distances are
fixed; a connected skeleton outline of the streets and
public ways, and the relative levels of the whole surface,
" This work, the foundation of a correct survey of the
metropolis, does not 'now exist in any shape, nor can a
trustworthy plan be possibly prepared until this pre-
paratory labour has been executed under the surest
guarantee of its perfect accuracy.
"It is true that many public and private surveys of
parishes and properties no exist ; some of them to a large
scale, and some, no doubt, accurate and trustworthy,
which, with rigid examination, and proper tests of their
correctness, might possibly be used in filling up the
foundation that is now in course of execution by the
Ordnance Department. But it is very questionable
whether any economy would result from such a course ;
for the cost and labour of examining and testing a num-
ber of plans, with the chance only of finding portions
that could be made use of, would most likely be as great
as that of the entire remeasurement. In any case, the
production of a correct plan, without the authentic
foundation now preparing, is an impossibility.
" The attempt to connect these different surveys into
a whole would be utterly futile, ending only in failure
and disappointment, and costing a large amount of money
and labour, which would be entirely thrown away; they
have been entirely executed totally independent of each
other, under different arrangements and different sys-
tems, and they never could be fitted accurately together.
The slightest discrepancy in the junction at one part
would throw the whole work entirely out at another,
and a work so put together would never possess the con-
fidence of the public.
" It appears, however, that an attempt at this erro-
neous [nettled is being made on private speculation. In-
formation was received in February last at the office of
the Metropolitan Sanitary Commission, that access had
been granted to some parochial maps, on an application
that was erroneously supposed to have been made on
behalf of the Sanitary Commission. On inquiry, it was
ascertained that the request had been made by letter."
The letter alluded to the map of London and its en-
virons, completed by Mr. Wyld. The document then
proceeded to make some remarks on this map, of which,
for sanitary purposes, it did not speak in terms of ap.
probation ; and having recommended economy, con-
cluded by advising a perseverance in the work which the
Court was now met to consider.
Mr. CHADWICK moved the adoption of the report,
' and of a series of resolutions which he read. With re-
spect to grounds of economy, he thought that the work
in which they were engaged was one of the greatest
economy. Indeed, he knew of no economy which could
equal it ; and to oppose such a work he considered was
most unwise. There was an old proverb, that " for
want of a nail the shoe was lost ; for want of a shoe
the horse was lost ; and for want of a horse the rider
was lost." He did not know of anything more discou-
raging than the way in which this question of Ordnance
Survey was dealt with by Parliament. An engineer of
experience had stated that the rejection of the plan
would involve burdens on the land to an amount of up-
wards of 2,000,000/—(Hear.) The loss to railroads
alone was upwards of 15,000,0002, and the loss in other
senses, for the want of security, was incalculable. There
was also a want of foresight in this narrow-minded
policy. The execution of a proper survey would prove
a large eventual benefit to the rate-payers, and it would
be worth their while to pay for this survey.
Mr. BRODERIP seconded the motion, which was
agreed to.
Mr. LESLIE thought that they were a little premature.
He had spoken to several influential Members of both
sides of the House, and they declared to him that they
did not understand the resolution which they had come
to.—(Laughter.) He thought that the proper course
for Government would be to proceed with the survey,
and to bring in a Bill to apportion the sum of 36,0001.
among the inhabitants. The money, compared with the
good to be effected, was the smallest consideration in
the world, and it would be shame to the inhabitants of
the metropolis if the work should be stopped for
36,0001. He then read the first resolution of the series,
comprising the preamble:—" That at the time when the
new Commissions of Sewers were issued, the several
Courts were not in a position either to raise the funds,
or to organize the force; nor had they the rights of
entry upon buildings, such as are possessed by the
Board of Ordnance, and as are necessary to execute a
surrey adequate to the wants of the metropolis."
To what extent were the Ordnance to go—was it to
4,000/ ?
A MEMBER—Yes, for the triangulation.
Mr. SLANEe----One thousand pounds had been found
by Government, and the sum now required was some-
where about 3,000/. It would be a benefit far exceed-
ing the amount of cost paid. It would take in small
districts, over which they had no
power to rate. But the
city of London would be eventually benefited,
and they
would be able to make them a present of the 130/-, esti-
mated as the average cost of the block
plan for a square
mile of the town district, that being about the extent of
the city of London. He hoped they would put their
shoulders to the wheel. Parliament misunderstood the
matter, and he thought that it ought to be fairly put
before them, that they might fairly
consider it. If they
desisted from proceeding with the work they would
lose all the expense they had incurred' and the machi-
nery which they bad in exercise. The expense would
not be a farthing in the pound in one
year, and if spread
over twenty years, it would not be the twentieth part of
farthing.
Mr. LESLIE did not see his way under the Statutes,
to charge the inhabitants with that over which they had
no power. It was said that the money would be paid
t
out of the Consolidated Fund.—(No, no.) Be thought
ought to pause, and that the House of Commons
should have the opportunity of reconsidering the subject,
for he believed that they had been entirely misled. He
did not, however, see that they had the power to charge
the metropolis, taking it within the radius of eight miles
from St. Paul's. A short Bid to apply not only to the
city of London, but to Middlesex and Surrey, might be
passed through the House of Commons to meet the case,
and the whole might be paid by a rate. In the position
in which they stood at present, as to their powers, they
should be cautious how they acted, for they would find
plenty of people ready to take legal objection to their
proceedings.
[With respect to the cost at which the survey of
London may be estimated, it may here be remarked, by
way of illustrating the points at issue, that Colonel Hall,
Superintendent of the Ordnance Survey, has, in answer
to questions transmitted to the Office of Ordnance re-
specting a block plan for drainage and other purposes,
required for this Commission, forwarded to the Inspector-
General of Fortifications a communication, from which
it would appear that a block plan of the metropolis, and
of the suburban districts included within a radius of
eight miles of St. Paul's (the same area for which a de-
tailed map was given by Major-General Colby) may be
executed, with a proper system of levels, for 24,2151.,
and that the cost of engraving the block plan upon a scale
of five feet to the mile, and upon 901 plates of double
elephant size, would be (including 3,604/. for the copper)
12,614/, making together 36,829/1
Mr. LAMBERT JONES, with great submission, thought
that they ought to go on to the extent of 4,000/, which
would aid the Ordnance. As respected the costs of the
city of London, they were estimated on the one hand by
the quantity of acres; but the estimate of the Board of
thought they ought to come to a reso-
20sr.danhanocuesew. asntheat the expense would on an average be
lutien to defray the expense.
The Hon. FREDERICK BYNG was quite sure that when
the public were aware of the endeavours of the Commis-
sion to save the money of the rate-payers, they would
voluntarily submit to the proposed course; but they
could not go on with the survey if they could not gua-
rantee the money; to use an American phrase, they
were "in it fix," and all the expense incurred was in
danger of being lost.
A MEMBER—If the Commissioners had a right to make
a survey and plan, it was quite clear to his mind that
they had a right to make a rate.
Sir H. DE LA BECNE considered it was of importance
that the Court should come to a decision without delay.
On that very day the Ordnance Staff was to leave
Londoltn, but, by order of the Surveyor General, the
sappers sand miners were countermanded till the decision
of this Court be known. The Government had already
advanced to the Ordnance a sum of 1,0001; the esti-
mated sum was 4,2701., and, consequently, they had
only to raise 3,2701. He would, therefore, press upon
the Court to come to a decision with as little delay as
