NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSU-
Li SOCIETY.
26, Cornhill, London.
Capital £500,000.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
This Institution embraces important and substantial advantages
with respect to Life Assurances and Deferred Annuties.
Policies issued by this Society have a i-Fofold advantage :—provi-
sion for the family of the Assured, and augmenting pecuniary
available resource to himself, if needful, whilel iving. The Assured
has, on all occasions, the power to borrow, without expense, or for-
Liture of the Policy, two-thirds of the Premiums paid.
DIVISION OF PROFITS.
The continued prosperity of the Society has enabled the Directors
at the Animal Meeting, hell on the Bth of :May, 1850, to declare a
sixth bonus, varying from 27 to 65 per cent. on the Premiums paid
on each Policy effected on the profit scale.

By the operation of the same principles, the ciety is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
zeous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
Libution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure
through this Society.

Fl RIMS T ONE'S AROMATIC
REGENERATOR.
If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human
figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or
of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer. an 11 s.
bottle of Grimstone's Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential
spit it, drawn from aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Bar-
bary, Ilighg,ate), which has been long known to the nobility and
gentry, by whom it is highly appreciated for its manifold virtues, too
numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read in his
pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed.
Each pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstone, Merchant,
Ilerbary, Highgate, and will be found at page 11, un,,er the copy of
Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the " Times" newspaper, 7th
of August, 1846.
This pamphlet is forwarded through the post, on receiving two
postage stamps.
The Aromatic Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on
receiving a post-office order for 4s. Gd., 7e. Bd., or Its., which in-
cludes the postage wilts the case.

Reader, reflect for a tow minutes, and if you are 40 years of age
you will remember the thousands of blind you meet with in your
walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was
the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re-
moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward,
clear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the cause
—the universal us? of Grimstone's Eye Snuff ! and because it cured
Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, :later et, Nervous Reattach, and Deaf-
ness, the Lords 01' the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi-
cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67
cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of
oppression ; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq.,
altered the label, and sanctioned its sale under order of the Lords of
the Treasury; the letter of protection, signed by Berries, 1 'sq., to

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.
SO !IT it-PASTERN.
A special meeting of this company was held yes-
terday at the Bridge-hour" Hotel, London-bridge,
for the purpose of authorizing the directors to borrow
money-on mortgage ; Mr. J. Macgregor in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said, they had succeeded, after con-
siderable opposition, in carrying a Bill through Par-
liament which would have the effect of enabling the
company to place its large and valuable property on a
firm and final basis.—(clear, hear) He said ad-
visedly pernialient—because the amount of funds—
namely, 1,200,0001., which the Bill secures to the
company, will have the effect of enabling it to com-
plete the works, to fulfil its engagements, and close
the capital account. —(Elear, hear) With reference
to the opposition with which the Bill was assailed in
the Baave t f Lords, ha was too desirous of peace,
and he saw in the interests of the company too
absolute a necessity for union and hearty accord,
to comment upon that opposition with any feelings
of acrimony. He then referred to the opposition of
Mr. Swift (a shareholder) to the Bill to discontinue
the*payment of interest out of capital on the Nos. 3
and 4 shares. In addition to his own opposition he
united the aid of the Railway Commissioners, which
had the effect of putting the company to a consider-
able, expense, besides involving the loss of. the Bill.
ile mentioned this matter with a view to deprecate
those dissensions which have hitherto marred the
prosperity of the con:pany, and which so long as they
continued must depreciate the common interest.—
(Cheers.) _ The Bill having been lost, the company
failed in obtaining any legislative authority or sanc-
tion' for determining their proceedings as regards the
payment of interest out of capital. The capital out
of which
_that payment has been made has become ex-
-hausted.-- Tne inexpedieney of paying interest out of
capital becomes merged in the greater physical im-
possibility of continuing to pay out of that which has
ceased to exist.—(Eiear, hear.) Under these cir-
cumstances, and owing to the oposition referred to,

uh e board,neerth the altered

circumstances the directors have taken the advice
of counsel, and the following opinion was obtained :
" We think, under the particular circumstances of
this company, as the Nos. 3 and 4 capitals are um ex-
hausted, and no further payment of interest can, in our
opinion, be legally made out of that or any other capital,
it wid be fair and equitable, and the most advisable
course for the general body of shareholders, to admit
the Nos. 3 and 4 shareholders to an immediate partici-
pation of dividends, including the current half-year's
dividend, without waiting for the complelion of the lines
for which those capitals were created. We think resolu-
tions for that purpose may with propriety be submitted
to a general meeting specially convened; and we doubt
not that the shareholders in general will see the justice
and expediency of adopting such resolutions so as to
authorise the directors to me-t in this way the reason-
able expectations of the holders of Nos. 3 and 4 shares.
—(Signed) FITZROY KELLY, ROUNDELL PALMER, C.
HOGGINS, HENRY ALWORTH MEREWETHER."
He regretted that that opinion was entirely adverse
to the intention the directors had entertained and ex-
pressed in anticipation of the passing of the Bill. The
board, while acceding to its conclusive view as to the
non- payment of the interest, which it does most reluc-
tantly, are fully prepared to carry out, with the ap-
proval of the shareholders, the suggestion with regard
to the fair and equitable substitution to the Nos. 3 and
4 shareholders for their present position. The sub-
ject would he entertained at another special meeting,
and every shareholder would have an ample opportu-
nity of stating his views either at a special meeting
called for the purpose before the ordinary meeting,
or at that meeting being made special for the purpose.
After some further observations with regard to the
necessity of unanimity among the shareholders, he
concluded by moving a resolution to the effect that,
" the directors be authorised to borrow upon the
mortgages of the undertaking a further sum of money
not exceeding in the whole the sum of 1,000,0001., at
such rate of interest as they shall think expedient."
Mr. lIEWETT DAVIS said, that he perceived by the
morning papers that the promoters of the Dover and
Deal Hoe had brought an action against the chairman
for 8,8001., being the amount of the expenses incurred
by them in promoting a Bill in Parliament, and he
wished to know whether the shareholders were going
to pay it. He would advise them to have nothing to
do with it, and he did not think it prudent to continue
the chairman in office. He objected to the principle
of authorizing the directors to raise 1,200,0001. with-
out having a detailed statement of the mode in which
it was intended to be applied. Ile complained that
there was no share account to show what number of
shares were issued, and that the price of the shares
was only 131. the dividend paying 7 per cent.
on that price, while the London and North-Western
were 109; paying less than 5 per cent. to the pur-
chaser. lie believed the reason was that the public
had no confidence in the accounts or management of
the South-Eastern Company, and that they had full
confidence in those of the London and North-Western.
He concluded by moving an amen iment, to the effect
that the shareholders had no confidence in the di-
rectors, and that they decline authorising them to
raise any money on mortgage at present.
Mr. G. SMITH said it was painful to him to state
that he had seen nothing since he became a shareholder
but that which tended to destroy his confidence in the
board of directors. He purchased his shares for 201.
each, and the price now in the market was 141. each.
They had fallen in value 6/. per share during the short
time he had been a shareholder, and he thought it
showed that the public had no confidence in the rail-

entered into with individuals they were bound in

bad management on the line, and as an instance, men-
tioned that a gentleman and his family, who purchased
first-class tickets for an excursion train, were charged
full fares for three little children. That was very
improper and calculated to disgust the public and
prevent them using the line. He believed the Parlia-

indignation and disappointment at the altermataionnn.erHine
which some classes of shareholders had been treated by,
the directors, and the loss they had sustained in conse-
quence of their not knowing what measures the direc-
tors had in contemplation. He would oppose the rais-
ing of the money, because he had no confidence in
the directors appropriating the money in a proper
manner. It appeared to him from the accounts that
the money of the company bad been appropriated to
purposes for which it was never intended. They had
not a proper debtor and creditor account to show
how their affairs stood—(Hear, hear)—they were
quite in the dark as to the actual position of their af-
fairs. He contended that the shareholders ought to
have every information with regard to the disposal of
the property.
The CHAIRMAN said he would call a special meet-

ing to give the proprietors an opportunity to discuss
the question of allowing the Nos. 3 and 4 share-
holders to participate in the general dividend, or the
next half-yearly meeting would be made special for
that purpose if they preferred it. With regard to
the accounts, three auditors had been appointed at the
last meeting, and he had no doubt they would present
them with ample accounts in future. As to the
Dover and Deal line, it was promoted in 1846, and at
that time there was a rival line projected by the
North Kent Company, in consequence of which the
directors were favourable to the Dover and Deal
scheme, but the promoters of it never completed
their terms with the South-Eastern Company,
and therefore, in the action alluded to by Mr.
aDavis,nd it was
abiln of exceptions had been tendered,
not probable that the promoters would
recover one shilling of the alleged costs and
expenses. The Ashford and Hastings line would be
opened before the ordinary meeting in September,
and there would be no delay to the payment of the
dividend. The capital of the No. 3 and No. 4 shares
constituted one-half the capital of the company, and
the holders had sufficient power to obtain justice for
themselves, and he was sure the holders of the Nos. 1
and 2 shares would be ready to make arrangements
with them.
Mr. J. WILSON aid, it was essential for the share-
holders to know what was intended to be done with
the 1,200,0001. proposed to be raised. He thought it
was a most outrageous draught upon the good nature
of the shareholders without giving any statement as
to the intended application of the money. They
would recollect at the last meeting that the Chairman
had told him that if he (Mr. Wilson) doubted what
he stated in reference to certain matters, he (Mr.
Wilson) would have an opportunity of examining
him on oath when the Bill was before the Hou=e of
1
Lords; but when he appeared before the Committee
of the Lords for that purpose, one of the counsel f r
the company contended that Mr. Wilson had no
