NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR-
A YCE SOCIETY,

26, CORNIIILL, LONDON.
Capital £500,000.
Empowered by Oct of Parliament.
The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu-
tion, both in its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par-
ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex-
pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies—
the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to
suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well
as to afford the fall benefit to his family at death, and annual division
of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that
the Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di-
rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy
on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the
amount already invested; and this bonus, according to an equitable
scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of future
premiums

THE SKIN AND COMPLEXION
GOWLAND'S LOTION.—The use of Gowland's Lotion is
speedily followed by the disappearance of every species of eruptive
malady, discolouration, lke., and the establishment of a pure surface
of the skin, accompanied by the brilliant circulation which constitutes
the tint of beauty, whilst as a refresher it preserves the most delicate
complexion, and sustains to a protracted period the softness of texture
and vivacity peculiar to earlier years.

WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.
LLOYD'S EUXESIS, FOR SHAVING
WITHOUT THE USE OF SOAP OR WATER, with greater
comfort, and in much less time than is usually required. Noblemen
and Gentlemen, who have skin of thin texture, and suffer from
irritation caused by Soaps (though of the most emollient kind) and
the ftiction of the Razor, will be most agreeahly surprised at the
absence of these inconveniences in the use of the Euxesis ; for its
peculiar property is, to leave the face beautifully smooth and soft,
and more capable of resisting the effects of sudden transitions from
heat to cold, experienced in a variable climate, like our own. The
Euxesis may be safely used at Sea, in the East or West Indies, and all
the Colonies, as climate will not deterioate its qualities, or time de-
preciate its value

rp E NORTH BRITISH REVIEW.
'TO BE PUBLISHED QUARTERLY.

For a considerable time past there has been, on the part of a large
proportion of the public, a growing feeling of the want of a Periodical
accommodated to the character of the times. The professedly reli-
gious Magazines have been chiefly devoted to theological subjects,
and generally address themselves to the peculiar views of one sect ;
and the Literary, Scientific, and Political Journals—though some of
them condueted with admirable talent—have excluded religion alto-
gether from their pages, or allowed it only a subordinate place ; and
no attempt has been hitherto made to meet the increased intelligence
in-connection with the strong religious feelings of the age.
To remedy these defects the present Work has been undertaken. It
is not intended to be a Theological Journal. No subject that can oc-
cupy the interest of a well-cultivated mind will be excluded ; but
topics of every kind will be treated of by individuals accustomed to
view them in their highest relations ; and Papers of a more strictly
religious character will be frequently introduced.

In discussing religious Subjects, there will be no attempt to advo-
cate the distinguishing peculiarities of any particular sect, and a re-
ference will be made only to those great principles upon which all the
Evangelical Communions are agreed.
Political questions will be considered, not so much In reference to
the views of party, as to the virtue and happiness of the community ;
and while, in this department, the work will be devoted to the main-
tenance of principles decidedly Liberal, those sentiments of religion
and humanity will be inculcated which alone can make the wisest
enactments permanently beneficial.
In Literature, the moral and religious- tendency of Works under
review will always be the first subject _of consideration, and their
literary merits will be discussed with a spirit of truthfulness and ear-
nestness which is not inconsistent with the lighter graces of criticism.
-The latest discoveries in mental and physical science will be regu-
larly unfolned, by men themselves of the highest inventive genius.
In all departments individuals of the greatest celebrity in this, and
in other countries, have promised to adorn our pages with their con-
tributions. _ -

and Aurist to his late Majesty, to several other Members of the
Royal Family, and the King of the Belgians, and Lecturer on the Ana-
tomy, Physiology, and Pathology of the Eye and Ear.
"We had occasion," says a distinguished Reviewer, to " analyze
Mr. Stevenson's admirable ' Treatise on Cataract,' and we have now
to notice a no less masterly work by the same eminent Oculist and
Aurist, on Deafness. If any of our numerous readers be himself a
sufferer from DeafneSs, or at all interested in the comfort or welfare
of any one who is, we can do him no greater favour, bestow upon
him no greater benefit, than that of strenuously and warmly recom-
mending him to consult Mr. Stevenson or his very able Treatise on the
subject."

EXETER. HAil.—'There was a numerous audience
..... .....
collected here, on Tuesday, to hear the oratorio of the
Messiah. • In the choral sections of this oratorio the Sacred
Harmonic Society has long been pre-eminent for the pre-
cision, sulidity, and feeling with which it executes them.
Practice has really made perfect the development of these
mighty bursts of musical genius—there is neither loitering
shyness nor carelessness observable. It is usual for the
Society to perform the oratorio with extraordinary complete-
ness of effect, but the appearance of 'M. Duprez could not be
considered otherwise, when first announced, than an addition
of great- Interest:" Everybody*Vdio had heard him elsewhere
bellevalthlithe'VaS capable dtpro-diicing a wonderful effect
in-the recitatives and airs of Handel. The success, however,
of this great singer was hardly commensurate with the
expectation. In his first recitative, " Comfort ye,"
it was found that he was labouring under a hoarse-
ness which crippled his vocal powers sadly; his in-
tonation was flat, a defect that was present more or less
throughout the evening; but there was always great intelli-
gence and propriety. His best effort was the air " Behold
and see," which he delivered with consummate feeling and
expression. Miss E. Birch sang very prettily, in a way that
will recommend her for the future. Miss Dolby is deserving
of the highest commendation for the excellence with which
she delivered the airs which fell to her lot; and, specially,
for the style in which she gave that beautiful plaintive me-
lody, "He was despised." There was genuine expression
without conyentional effort.
Although the fact is not set forth in the report of
the Commissioners, we are enabled to state that it is in-
tended to give the public a footway of 20 feet in width
from Whitehall-place, to Westminster-bridge.--Observer.
THE LAST Or' THE ROYAL GEORGE'S CREW.—A
few days since died, at Morden College, Blackheath. Mr.
Webb, one of the last, if not the only, surviving officer who
held rank on board this unfortunate ship, with the exception.
of Admiral Sir Philip Durham. At the time of this unfortu-
nate calamity the late Mr. Webb, who was a midshipman,
had a narrow escape from the fate which awaited hundreds of
-his less fortunate companions. He was one of a boat's crew
who had permission to go on shore under the command
of a lieutenant. The boat had rowed off some distance,
when a brother midshipman requested that he might return
as he had forgotten his dirk. The lieutenant acceded to the
request, and the midshipman was put on board, but, stopping
longer than the irascible lieutenant desired,- he gave orders
for the crew to row away the boat, which had scarcely got
out of the reach of the whirlpool caused by the catastrophe,
before the ill-fated vessel capsized. Mr. Webb, who never
ranked higher than a lieutenant, quitted the navy to embark
in mercantile pursuits, and so became qualified to pass the
latter portion of his days under this hospitable roe 116 was
very eccentric in his habits, andalthough upwards of ninety
years of age (twenty of which he had spent in this asylum),
-be retained his faculties wajmpaired until the last.

Mr. Hume,--To move the following Resolution :
That this House, takine• into consideration the exem-
plary conduct of the peofile during the exhibition of the
Cartoons last year, an wherever they have been ad-
mitted to public edifices, and their general disposition to
improve by the contemplation of works of art, approve
of the following recommendation of the Select Com-
mittee of this House on National Monuments, in 1841—
" That your Committee strongly deprecate any course
which could create an impression that Churches were at
any time to be considered merely in the light of places
for the exhibition of works of art ; but it is their
opinion that as, by increased facilities of admission to
the inspection of mere works of art, civilisation has been
encouraged and public taste improved, so a more free
admission to religious edifices, under proper regulation,
may be made conducive, not merely to the gratification
of curiosity and the acquirement of historical know-
ledge, but to the growth and progress of religious im-
pressions, by leading the mind of the spectator from the
contemplation of the building to a consideration of the
views with which, and the purposes for which, it was
originally erected, and is still maintained. Your
Committee entertain a hope that arrangements may be
made by the Cathedral Authorities, to allow the larger
portions of Westminster Abbey, and of St. Paul's and
other Cathedrals throughout the country, to be open
freely to the public daily; and, especially, on Sundays,
reconciling such free admission with the due and undis-
turbed performance of religious services, though it may
be required to continue a small reduced fee, or other
sufficient restriction, in regard to the chapels and
a e
iAO
nd
sdlrye s
pleased
to
asetdhe smaller or more intricate portions of those edifices.
Your Committee think it right to add, that if the
greater freedom of admission to those Churches should
lead, as it probably must, to an increase of the number
of Officers employed in their superintendence, the addi-
tional expense ought to be defrayed from other funds
etCero wri, that
