SCOTTISLI WIDOWS' FUND and LIFE
S
ASSURANCE SOCIETY.
Founded A.D. 1815.
*On the Principle of Mutual Contribution.
:P"This Institution notwithstanding its local name, has long been fa-
, I.OIY known.to' all classes in Great Britain and Ireland. It is the
Anoest and most successful Life Assurance Office in Scotland ; and,
coWith the exception of the London Equitable, it is believed to be the
unt ex
mutual upon the utual assurance principle of any in the
ry.
The affairs of the Society's are carefully investigated at the end of
cons
"et, Period of seven years, and it is provided by the articles of
lion
profit shall that at least one-third of the ascertained surplus or
be reserved as a Guarantee Fund. This fund (as well as
fta‘" the other funds of the Society) belongs solely to the members
secures the stability of the Institution, and prevents the profits
frel'n being diverted, as must be the case in all proprietary offices,
iron the Individual benefit of the assured to increase the dividends of
the stockholders. ..
-kt the last septennial period of investigation (viz., 31st December,
1845),, it was ascertained that the Surplus Fund amounted to upwards
14 614,0001., from which the Directors Were enabled, after setting
aside uPwards of 204,0001. as a Guarantee fund, to declare and
Provide for the following additions :
I.
•
An addition at the rate of Two per Cent. Per Annum for the
Parted from 31st December, 1838, on the accumulltled amount of the
original kilns assured, and the previously declared additions ; being,
the case of the early insurances, upwards or THREE PElt CENT.
IP.dt ANNUM of BONUS on the original sums Insured. And in
order to provide for the case of such parties as might die before
31st December, 1852, the period of the next investigation and decla-
ration of Sittplus, there was provided farther,
11. Aa addition at the rate of Two Per Cent. per Annum on the
accumulated amount cf the original Asurances, and previously de-
Provided the party had at his death been insured five years. Thus
in the case of a party insured in the early years of the Society's ex-
-1;41 istence dying after
_payment of the premium for the year 1852,
addition for the seven years from 31st December, 1845, to 31st
eccinber, 1852, would be upwards of 25 per cent., or at the rate of
upwards of THREE' AND A HALF PEECENT. PER ANNUM
'if BONUS on the original Sum Insured.
The proportion of the profit,allocated to each Member may be
41,PliCd in any of the following ways, viz. :
By additions to the original sum insured;
Ay an immediate payment of its value in money; or,
Hy an equivalent deduction froth the future Annual Contributions
payable under the Polic
The effect of the additions made to the Policies may be judged of
Nat the fact, that in the case of the Original
Members of the Society,
there will be paid, under each 1,0001. insured, in the event of death,
after payment of the Premium, in the year

A MEETING of the "MEMBERS" of a
MOST IMPORTANT "BODY."
A meeting took place, for I heard and I saw,
And what do you fancy this meeting was fir!
Why the meeting, Prim all I could gather, was ono
Te decide on the merits of MOSES and SON.
The excellent Chairman, Sound Judgment, Esquire,
Having said a few words with regard to attire,
Mr. Shoulders, a man of respectable nate,
Wished to make a remark on his
WAISTCOAT AND COAT.
" I thiak," said the speaker, " you all ought to view
My Waistcoat, my Coat, and my Overcoat, too.
I ought to speak warmly of MOSES," said he,
" When I see the warm garments they've furnished to me."
With this Mr. Legs, arose on his pegs,
And declared he considered himself the mere dregs.
" My sabject," said he, " you're aware, is my
TROWSERS,
Ent, alas! as !o speaking, I cannot tell how, Sirs ;
Fir the speaker's se lad, and the Trewsers' so goad,
That I cannot praise MOSES and SON as I would."
Mr. Head next arose from the place where ho sat,
And delivered an eloquent speech on his
HAT.
" I am sure, Mr Chairman." said he, " that I'm right,
In pronouncing it stylish, elastic, and light.
To the Hat-mart of MOSES and SON I'll adhere
As staunchly as aver!" (Loud cries of " Hear, hear.")
This speaker was foil wed by one Mr. Foot,
Who rose with a, dignified stamp on his
BOOT.
" I am certain," said he, that I'm true in declaring
The Boots made by MOSES usequalled for wearing ;
They are matchless in quarters, in ace, and in vamp."
And here Mr. Poet gave another loud stamp.
Then the Chairman arose, and wee happy to find
The whole of the speakers so much of a mind.
"And." said he, "on behalf of the ladies, good Sirs,
I feel it my duty to speak of the
FURS.
If I did not pronounce them the best you could wear,
I consider I should not be fit for the chair ;
And remember the ♦ery low prices you pay,
For these, and for all that you've mentioned to-day.
I trust that the while of the journals, as one,
Will rep rt what we've said of E. MOSES and BON."
" Hear, hear," said the while of the gentlemen there,
And the business was enned with thanks to the chair.

E. MOSES and SOLI invite especial attention to their Shooting-
oats, which possess a peculiar cut and style, adding much comfort
th• It. E. M. and 11. aro convinced they will be much approved

Vil One half the world are desolately single, and the other
,upposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
'ense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
-Mar the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
4f caution and worldly prudence, and the Indissoluble, regret un-
,omproshits hurry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
lement. Honour and justice demand that health should form mittens
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
:hese surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little

L 0 V E is the leading feeling of the human
breast. More exalted than mere passion, it sears high above
every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice,
but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from
its influence, or can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo-
sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling
power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity
with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage.
When union does not take place, however, this passion, this
fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly
poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright-
ened, all thinp upon earth. How is it that men, of most un-
changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life-
time spent In the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con-
tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind?
It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early
habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be
disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been
instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable! Loving and beloved, he entails the
most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon
himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of
natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both is life of
unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the
attention of all. Those desirous of investigating It will find the
fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled
SELF-PRESERVATION,
illestrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology,
and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa-
tions ea the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from
solitary habits, excesses, or infection.

REVIEW OF MR WORK.
La'Heft on the Infirmities of Touth and Maturity.—" There are
scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator bu;
Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the
mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf
into which such scenes must plunge him ! In the book before is
etch a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the
erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al-
ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style
of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of
philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a
production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally,
aeon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and
propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By tin
taught innocence the book Is not, of course, needed ; but wherever
laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breatbitil in these
pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of
a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine."
