Oil Lamps are most offensive to the smell, and the eph-meral Cam-

BL A IR'S GOUT and itliEU Al r rtbLs.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi-
cacy of this medicine :
"157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850.
" Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex-
perienced by taking BLAIR'S G JUT and RfILUMATIC PILLS,
I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public
who may be similarly affected.
" About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout
in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va-
riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19. h Dragoons, and
in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro-
cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief,
and my sufferings can be appreciated only by th se who knuw some-
thing of this disease.
" It was during one of tho'e paroxysms, between twelve and thir-
teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I
lost no time 1.1 procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity
the pain had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect
health.
" From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis-
ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to
sae is so valuable, that were it not that the days of male have
ceased. I should certainly attribute the rrliee I obtain to that cause.
Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf-
fered, but on the contrary I believe the te,ideney of BLAIR S PILLS
IS towards its Improvement.
" I have recommended the Pills to many friends, and the result
has always been of the most gratifying character.

ATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE
ASSURANCE COMPANY,
8, NEW COYENTRY-STREET, L ETC ESTER-SQUARE, LONDON.
The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie-
tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head
Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the
report, which is too lengthy for publication :, 1.
Durjng t)le past year no,eralrno have arisen- from deaths in Elleartzl.
and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other tor 2901.—making
together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected
mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how
severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last
year.
The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1849, and
the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in
the twelve months preceding.
Prop, isais were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.:
of these 124, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s.
Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s.
was received by the Company in the shape of premiums
Since the ciimmencenient of the Company to the Ist of June last,
assurance were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro-
ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. I Is. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed,
amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were
7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to
2,9911. ss. 11d.
Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001.,
but 1,1831. 1 ls. 10d. only was advanced.
The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the
last four months they had considerably extended their business on
the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur
de I'Etang, a gentleman Of high stranding in Paris, distinguished for
his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters,
who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris,
the Cardinal Archbish, p of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque
de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con-
siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An-
nuities both Immediate and Deferred.
After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning
thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice-
Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish-
ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results
and future prospects.
