of the year's account, as the quinquennial valuation to be made in
June next was so near.
The Report was unanimously adopted, and some routine business
having been disposed of, the thanks of the meeting were very
cordially voted to the Chairman, Directors, and officers of the Com-
pany—when the meeting separated.
The Premiums required by this Company aro very moderate, an d
moreover are accurately adjusted.
The Assured of the purticipating class share the whole surplus,

TRUSTEES.
Richard Spooner, En., M.P.
J. Campbell Renton, Esq., M.P. I James Fuller Madox, Esq.
Richard Malins, Esq., Q.C. William Wilberforce, Esq.
The POLICIES are INDISPUTABLE, in terms of the Deed of
Settlement of the Company, duly registered, and are not, therefore,
dependent for their validity on the construction to be put upon pre-
vious statements or the official papers which preceded them, or upon
reports, prospectuses, or other varying documents. They are thus
rendered CERTAIN FAMILY PROVISIONS, AND NEGOTIABLE
DOCUMENTS OF SECURITY.
Owing to this important improvement in the practice of life
assurance, the progress of this company has been rapid from the
commencement of its business, and is steadily advancing.

THREATENED INVASION of ENGLAND.
The proposal to elect Prince Joinville President of France
reminds the public of the pamphlet, in which he showed (on paper
of course) how easy it would be, with a dozen steamers, to land a
few thousand men suddenly in England, march them up to Lon-
don, plant the French Eagle on the Tower, take possession of the
Bank, and perform various other exploits. But it is now said that
the principal object was to march 20,800 men to the Monarch Mart
in the Minories and Aldgate, and take possession of all the clothing,
in consequence of Messrs. E. MOSES and SON having excited the
envy of the Parisians, by not only anticipating their fashions, but
making better clothes at half the Parisian price. That Messrs. E.
MOSES and SON have pretty well monopolised the trade of Europe
is true enough (and the rest of the story msy be). But how have
they done this? By securing the best artists in dress, the best
cutters, designers, and workmen, by buying the best materials in
large quantities with rea-,y money, by laying on the most trifling
profits, and having the selling prices all marked in plain figures on
each article ; it is by the high quality and low price they have se-
cured an enormous and rapidly increasing business. Let any one
who doubts visit the principal depot, or the West•end Branch Esta-
blishment, and judge for themselves.
Take Notice. —This Establishment will be Closed on Saturday
Evening, the '27tti instant, and will resume business on Monday
Morning, as usual.
