This Association has been formed principally with the view of af-
erding to gentlemen engaged in GOVERNMENT and PUBLIC
OFFICES, BINKINGI HOUSES, and MERCANTILE ESTI-
itLISHMENTS, 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 or 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 beeetit between all the Members, whether
iserrowers or not.
2. Certainty in the amount of advance to which each Member
Wishing to anticipate his Shares will be entitled at any given period
of the Satiety's existence, with the means of ascertaining precisely
at any date the amount payable to retiring Members, and the value
of the Sharet of centinaing Members.
Members may pay up the whole sr any portion of their subserlp-
Sons for the ten years, in advance, and discount, after the rate of 41.
Per Cent. per anima, wilt be allowed for the sums so paid.
Members wishing to withdraw their Subscriptions may do se after
the first year, without fine ; and subsequently to that period com-
Pound interest at the rate of Si. per Cent. per annum will be allowed
aeon the suits withdrawn.
Shares may be transferred free of stamp duties.
NY the plan adapted is this Society aew Members enteriag at
any period, and all Members taking up additional Shares, may have
Sans advanced to them without paying up arrears ef SUDSCriptiOnS ;
and the precise amounts that will be advanced either
ch will to old or new
Members, are set forth in the Tables, a copy to the up-
)lied to every Member. This is manifestly far preferable
equal and objectionable system usually adopted of putting
1,41 to auction, anti advancing the money to those who submit to the
lasieet discount; by which means the object of the Legislature,
"high contemplated that each Member should derive precisely the
lame advantage, is entirely frustrated.
The monthly subscription, both to the borrowing and non-borrow-
tag Members, is precisely the same, and continues the same to the
end of the Society; borrowers are, therefore, relieved from the
heavy monthly " redemption fee," and the mutual principle is car-
ried into full operation.
Ne Member has any responsibility beyond the payment of his own
linbeeriptions.
Prospectuses and copies of Enloe may be obtained at the office of
the Society, Is, Old Broad-street.

THE PROCESSION ON THE THAMES.
TWENTY T EIOUSAND SAILORS I I
01 *ever did Thames en his waters mired
A eight so imposing—a movement se bold.
Twenty thousand bold mariners—ocean's best gems—
Assembled en Milne en the breast of the Thames.
'Twits astounding to witness the boats and the steamers,
The " bonnie blue jackets," the boats
aunt streanaers.
This aquatic procession would cast in the shade
The sights of Queen Bess with her best 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 seen was essentially one
To bring to the mind Messrs. MOSES and SON,
As the newly-clad 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.
v'ry day at the warehouse of MOSES we view,
The sons of the ocean in " jackets of blue,"
And finding how MOSES ant SON can equip,
They never feel inclined to " foresake the old•ship."
The scene on the shore was essentially one
To remind the Oserver of MOSE • and SON
dress,
,
Both ladies and gentlemen show'd lo their
A beauty to rival the days of Queen Bess ;
Ana never did Thames on his w tears unfold
A sight so imposing—a movement so bold.

M One half the world are desolately single, and the other
sui;Tesing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense 't right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the itZtter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing hurry ; Nut the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The de'rry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice denissid that health should form au item
