UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
8, WATERLOO-PLACE, PALL-MALL, LONDON.
Established by Act of Parliament in 1834.
DIVISION OF PROFITS AMONG THE ASSURED.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most
perfect secur tended a large paid-up Capital, and in the great success
which has at it since its commencement in 1834, its ANNUAL
INCOME being UPWARDS of 60,000/.
In 1841 the Company, declared an addition to the Shareholders of
one-half of their Stock, and also added a Bonus of 2L per cent. per
annum, on the Sum Insured to all Policies of the Participating Class
from the time they were effected.
The Bonus added to Policies from March, 1834, to December 31,
1840, is as follows :
Sam Time Sum added Sum Time Sum added
Assured. Assured. to Policy. Assured. Assured. to Policy.
£5OOO 6 yrs. 10 mths. £683 6 8 £5OOO 4 years £4OO
5000 6 years 600 0 0 5000 2 years 200
The Premiums, nevertheless, are on the most moderate scale, and
only one-half need be paid for the first Five Years, where the Insur-
ance is for Life.
Every information will be afforded on application to the Resident
Directors, Edward Boyd, Esq., and E. Lennox Boyd, Esq., of No. 8,
Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, London.

THE MARINERS and GENERAL LIFE
ASSURANCE COMPANY.
Expressly established for Insurances on the Lives of Mariners,
(whether members of the Royal or Mercantile Navy) and Military
officers.—lt is to be noted that the Policies of this Company will
cover voyages of every description and service hi every part of the
globe.
The Lives of Fishermen and Boatmen also insured.
High rates of premium have hitherto operated against this kind of
Assurance, but as the scale, now adopted will be found as low as is
consonant with the risk, it is believed that this fact, coupled with
other advantages, will induce a great increase of insurers.
Deferred Annuities to Mariners granted upon very moderate
Premiums.
The Premiums for General Assurances are based upon a new ad-
justed table of mortality.
Ten pound per cent. ofthe profits to be applied in making a provi-
n for destitute and disabled Mariners.

PECULIAR ADVANTAGES OF THIS INSTITUTION.
Credit given for half the amount of the first five Annual Premiums,
by which means Assurances may be effected with the least possible
present outlay, and after payment of the arrears, the Policy-holder
will become entitled to participate in the entire profit of this Institu-
tion, precisely in the same manner as if he had paid the whole amount
of his premiums in advance, in the usual way.
Thus, for example—a person in the twenty-fifth year of his age,
instead of paying 21. 6s. per annum for an Assurance of 1001., would
be required to pay, 1/. 3s. only during the first five years, when, on
payment of the arrears of Premium, amounting to Si. 155., his share
of the Profits would be such as to reduce his future Annual Pre-
miums to very little more than the half Premium of ii. 3s. originally
paid by him. The Great Britain is the only Mutual Assurance
Society in which this very great accommodation is given to the As-
sured.
Credit allowed for the whole of the first five Annual Premiums, on
satisfactory security being given for the payment of the same at the
expiration of five years.
All the profits of the Institution divided annually among the Policy-
holders who shall have paid five Annual Premiums.
Full particulars are detailed in the Prospectus, which, with every
requisite information, may be obtained by application to

LOW RATES-OF PREMIUM.
In addition to the subscribed Capital of £300,000, the Assured
have the security of the Company's income of nearly VO,OEO per
annum, yearly increasing, and an accumulating Assurance Fund in-
vested in Government and other available securities, of considerably
la ger amount than the estimated liabilities of the Company.
The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale compatible
with the security of the Assured, and the stability of the Company,
thereby. in effect, giving to every Policy Holder an immediate and
certain Bonus without risk, in lieu of the deferred and frequently
delusive prospect of a periodical division of Profits.

Single Guns, to £6 lvs.; Double Guns, to £l5.
Hitherto there hes been no certain way of obta.ning a good gun
without paying an extravagant price. Guns sold at low prices have
been made by those with whom quality has not been so much a con-
sideration as the production of a showy cheap article, which has
generally proved worthless, if not dangerous. This has led
RIPPuN and BURTON to engage persons of known ability and
great experience in the manufacture of guns, and they now
solicit sportsmen to inspect their extensive assortment. Mahogany
cases, fitted with cleaning tackle, shot-pouch, powder-flask, &c., in

with their previous stock (already the most varied and extensive in

T"VERSUS LIFE.
An Enigma; attempted to be solved by observation on the
three leading phases of human existence—
Y OUTH—hIA NHOOD—AGE.
£he ill-concealed imprudence of Youth, the irresolution of Manhood
as prematurely heralding the advance of Age—on Indigestion and
Mental Irritation which too surely ripen the seeds of mortality ; also
on the moral command of the Passions, and on the probable result
when they shall have surrendered to the invasion of error and indis.
cretion, viz. :—Diseases of the Urethra, &c., and on other Disquali-
fications to Marriage.

EXTRACTS FROM THE PUBLIC PRESS.
The work before us gives in simple and perspicuous terms
such directions for thepreservation of health as are most likely to be
serviceable to the community."
BELL'S MESSENGER.—" This is a useful medical work ; the best
portion appears to us to be that which treats of the obstruction to
natural functions in the later portion of life. We recommend the
work to our readers as at once scientific and practical."
SUNDAY TIMES.—'' Dr. Crucefix has spoken in the language of a
scholar, a gentleman, and a friend. The following passage should
be remembered by all who wish for the general good of mankind :
Morality suffers sadly by concealment of what, if known and un.
derstood, would operate as a guard against crime....
SATIRIST.—" The large amount of useful information, devoid of
the incumbrance of pedantic mystification, favourably distinguishes
this work from most treatises of the same description."
AGE AND ARGUE.—" It is a work that must be read with interest
by both sexes, and particularly those who are suffering from indi.
gestion and mental irritation, We can honestly recommend the
perusal of it to our readers."
ERA.—" It is written in a plain and easy style, from which may
be obtained many valuable hints on the method of retaining the in-
estimable blessing—Health."
