VICE-PRESIDENTS.

Sir Neil Menzies, Bart., of Menzies.
David M. M. Clrichtoun, Esq., of Rankeilour.
The leading principle of this Mutual Assurance Society is, that the
whole Profits are divisible among the Policy Holders every three
years. In illustration of the eminent success which has attended the
Society, it may be stated that the additions made to Policies have
been at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum on the sum assured and on
the vested bonus.
Thus the holder of a Policy for 1,000/. effected on the let of March,
1832, will, if it become a claim during the present year, be entitled
to 1,2971.; or, if effected on or before the Ist March, 1833, to 1,275/.,
and so on as Tegardi other Policies.
`The Aecinnulated Fund exceeds 260,0001., and the Annual Revenue
is above 70,000/., the whole being in a course of steady and increas-
ing, prosperity.
No other Life Assurance Institution whatever can warrantably
hold out greater advantages to parties R
Assuring than this Society does

late Royal highness :0 it.ousehold at the time of his death.
The witness then put in several letters, which he deposed to
be in the ha.lwriting of the late Duke of Sussex, from which
we extract the following passages :
" Augusta, with this note I send thee a ring, such a one as
I trust soon to be able to put on thy finger myself. I kissed
it. I have put it upon the Bible, and repeated to myself the
oath I took last night. Keep it always, and never let -it go
from thy finger ; thus prays thy friend, thy lover, thyfuture
husband."

" I have .riven you my most sacred word of honour, my
Augusta, to oeyour husband, and none ether but yours. 7I
wrote it to you most sacredly upon my knees, and assacredly
I perform this ceremony again, which my heart dictates, and
which I am resolved to keep, whatever may happen. As
I hope to be saved in the last day,-0 God ! I promise to take
Augusta Murray fur my wife; for better for -worse, and
none other but her.- Though not present, my soul, have
sworn this upon the Bible in presence of the Almighty; my
Creator is my witness; what other one but Him do I want;
who else but our all-merciful Father can judge me? all this
I write, and have wrote upon my knees, and promise thee,
my heart's delight, I will wed none other but thee, and thee
only."
" Should our marriage here not succeed, I must then fall
upn other plans, for we must meet alone first, that is certain ;
it is necessaly for our mutual happiness and good. We owe
this to ourselves, for our feelings will be such that we shall

nerves ; and that with care I shall certainly get better, and
entirely cured: I would give the world, my dearest Augusta,
for to see you and comfort you. Pray write to me to-mor-
row, .and you
me know your desires, and I will arrange
myself accordingly. I ' got your letter last night, for
which I return my warmest thanks. Sorry, very sorry, was
1 to find you complain so, and though all my bag-
gage is on board a ship, yet should you want me to stay,
Augusta, I will, coute qul coute. May Heaven protect—may
the'Alinighty shower his most benign blessings upon thy
head, my adored wife! May guardian angels protect thee .
from every danger, and every stone that may be under thy
feet, and may 1 see thee soon, is the constant prayer' of him
who subscribes himself, with truth and till death, your ever
devoted and attached husband and friend,

"'Portsmouth; Jan. 15, 1794.—1 n any other situation, my
dearest Augusta, it would have been impossible for me to have
parted without taking leave of you, but as such a circum-

be thought of. The very night that I got the infor-

to spend in England. Nothing in the world could or should

have prevented me from seeing you ; and I was as good as
my word.. At leaving the little infant, I kissed and blessed

my boy-Lour boy. -I
prayed for my wife—for thee, my
angel!—and returned my warmest thanksgivings to the.
Almighty for his peculiar goodness to me at all times. My
preceding letter, which you have not read yet, will show
you my confidence in the Almighty, and you see I am not
deceived. The Lord is a firm rock which never give
way ; whoever -resti on Him never falls, but is constantly
supported. You see, my angel 1 the Lord has protected us
on all occasions, and has done so now ; therefore, my own
dearest Augusta, do not forget yourself, but rely on the.
Almighty, and that will make us soon meet. Gunn is to
call once a week to know if you have any orders, and is to
bring you, from Major Price, by my orders, three hundred
pounds, which is all I can afford till you come to Bologna,
and there you shall find money at Sir Robert Harris's
banker, whose name you will have upon paper ; for I
should advise you to send your money to that
banking house, and get notes from him to that amount, by
which, wherever you go, you will always be able to get the
coin of the country, and to lose less. My friend Domford will
send you an account of the road as far as Augsburgl4soj
sten
you must pass, in order to get through Tirol,, and from
sitebraltar I will send you your route_ass‘..sr as ROMe. Gunn
attend you always, and „Istsi:; your servant ; a courier
you must have, and fix"! -Out yourself, for else you will be
cheated beyond description, Deinford is to get you your
passport, also, under the name of Mrs. Stuart, for two servant
maids, two servant }dud our little boy. Therefore, whenever
I write to PA 041'04 I shall always direct to Mrs. Stuart.
Yetkr llr4t letter to me, directed at Leghorn. Stopford talks
of my tieing there In sixteen days, which will give me great
satisfaction.
" Rome, April 4, 1794.--By your own account, my love,
and which I most firmly believe, you must have wrote many
letters I have never received. This is peculiarly unfortunate,
and most particularly so at this moment, when I wish to
know every sentiment of your heart, in order to give you
consolation, and prove to my wife that that confidence she
has put in her husband he deserves. Without vanity, I
may say, that I have never deceived my Augusta, and never
will. She shall always find me the same fond friend, the same
devoted lover, the same unalterable husband, the same honest
man, she ever knew me, and for which she used to admire me.
Only hasten to my arms, my charmer I and I will acknow-
ledge you in spite of Parliament, and in spite of every thing
that does not feel the same warmness, the same adoration I
do for you, and which shall never cease but with my death.
I mention this with superlative pleasure to-day, as this very
one mal,ea a year that our souls have been united together;
and with the greatest truth, and satisfaction to myself, I can
add, my dearest Augusta, with that sincerity every man
must pronounce his fate on . the last day of judgment,
that my affection has never one moment coaled towards
you, but has hourly augmented, and does so still,
for which I am most grateful to the Almighty, and which
gratitude I hope to prove to my Creator by my conduct to-
wards you. I will fight for you, my Augusta ; I will die
thy husband. Nothing ever can, ever shall, alter my affec-
tion for you, which was formed by an admiration of your
amiable qualities, and ripened by my respect for your vir-
tues. Our bonds were united by the most sacred ties ever
religion could invent ; and I defy the power of profane hands
to break them _ _

Want no witnesses but ourselves; we must have none; we
will have none but. us two; and now I come to repeat the
first part,. that should our marriage not here take place, it
makes no ttitrerence in our lot, though in our happiness, for
we are bound to marry one another by everything that
is sacrel It will be only delayed then, and next year lam
of age, •so may act fur myself, and my first object will be
you, fur I am ever yours, and all yours, as I hope for salva-
tion, so bless Jne God! I only repeated this to my trigolige,

she is about. As for the AbhO's inquir m
ing eang the Greek
priests, I tlou no use, I own i fur I doubt if our marriage
through one of them would be more valid than through a
Ronian one. -I- talk openly you see, as I think, and as I
have always acted, and always will act. However, I trust
he has wrote to Leghorn -this evening, according tc, wa pro-
mise. Whatever may happen, and will happen, 411 whatever
situation I Div ha! I «h4lt be always Augusta's, my
dearest Augusta's btudiand, her warmest, her truest
friend, the man to whom she will reveal every
thought, every uneasiness, who will act the same
by her, and whom this mutual contideneel 444 trust
will ever, must ever, make happy'. Tllp 11110-1104 you tell me,

will of God, and by her own inclination, which are to gifi the
two strongest, the two dearest ties."

ARRIVAL of the EMPEROR of RUS
SIA at ROTTERDAM.

" 1 own it is very bard to be forced to conceal our mar•
riage as we do, but prudence requires it.
" I own I think it most prudent to remain a couple of
days at home ; sitpicion might make them curious, and the
discovery,•thiingh it would be of no use, might be attended
with some disygree.►ble consequence or another for us. It is
better to submit quietly to such an inconvenience, in order
to enjoy ourselves the better, and more securely. Do you
not think so, my dearest Augusta? Is there not reasoning
in this'

" If I cannot contrive to go to Florence you must remain
as long here a you can, for if I cannot go there I shall not.
move from this place, for here he cannot, he shall not, prevent
my seeing you, and some months passed will put the whole
business to an end, and then complete what we have so
luckily sueceethd in executing."

" Should the annulling of our marriage take place, which
I doubt, my Augusta, it will make no difference in my senti-
ments, my charmer. On the contrary, it will increase my
love for you. My grief will augment my endeavours to make
thee happy, which, God knows, I have ever in view. Come
over then, and I will acknowledge you; for I will not life in
any country where I cannot live with you. God has
given me my Augusta, and nothing but the Almighty
can take her away from me. She will always be the same;
loved and respected by me. I shall ever consider her
and acknowledge her as my wife. Whatever she desires
shall be my desire ; whatever may be her pleasure shall
be mine also ; what can I say more, what can I
do more, to prove the sincerity of my affections towards you,
my Augusta? Speak, and it shall be done; for I live only
with the thoughts of making you happy. Whatever may
happen, I shall never absent myself further from here than
Florence or Lucca. No consideration in the world, meept
your own peculiar desire, will ever engage me to leave Italy.
No place is better calculated for my health, nor is any one
safer; for, at least, no one can lay hands upon me here. I
shall not write again after this, as I shall begin to expect you ;
for you will have recoiyed my letter from Leghorn, and the
money also, after which, I trust, you will set off. As far me,
I have received no letters from any one of the family; and
considering this as a silent order not to write, I shall certainly
accede to it."

The Lightning steam vessel, Master Commander W.
Roberts, returned to Woolwich Dockyard at nine a.m. on
Wednesday, and was the bearer of dispatches from Captain
the Right Honourable the Earl of Hardwicke, com-
manding the Black Eagle vessel, to the Lords Commis-
sioners of the Admiralty. The Lightning also brought in-
telligence of the arrival of his Imperial Majesty the Em-
peror of Russia at Rotterdam, in the Black Eagle steamer,

et'uimhroe oulcrlso,The Lightning was about two hours behind the
Black Eagle in arriving at Rotterdam, altkaigh the latter
went over more ground than the former, afilirding evident
proof of the superior construction of the Black Eagle for
speed and excellent quality of her engines. The Black
Eagle was to leave Rotterdam on Wednesday morning, and
was expected to arrive at Woolwich yesterday. His Imperial
Majesty, previous to the departure of the Lightning from
Rotterdam, in the most liberal and kind manner, ordered
diamond rings to be presented to Master Commander S. B.
Cook, Mr. Allen, additional master, and Mr. Payne, first
engineer of the Black Eagle; and diamond rings to Master
Commander Roberts, Second Master Foster, and Mr. Trus-
cott, first engineer of the Lightning; and the handsome sum
of 4001. to be paid in England amongst the crews of the Black
Eagle and Lightning steam-vessels which conveyed his Im-
perial Majesty and suite to the Continent. The Emperor had
left Rotterdam previous to the Lightning starting on her re-
turn to Woolwich.

" Wednesday morning—MY soul I trust lots reposed well,
and is longing nor her husband. Well, my treasure, Ido not
promise to come to-night, but if every one was to go I would
see how to settle this. So pray let me know this afternoon
at what o'clock your mother goes out, that I may see if we
can do any thing. The weather is truly desperate; but if I
can come it shall not prevent me from visiting thee, my
heart's delight ; I am dying for it
" 1 have not promised quite to come, I will do what is in
my power, but more you cannot expect from me."
" On comitig home, my dearest Augusta, I read the news-
papers through for safety sake, and found the report of our
marriage refuted, which gave me great pleasure. However,
as I thought it nut safe to fall into my gentlemen's hands,
1 burnt the p2per, after cutting out the paragraph for my
wife's instruction."
" Saturday morning, April 1793.—Y0u must send me Lord
Hervey's letter this morning, that I may answer it ; for it
will require some little difficulty to answer it in such a way
as to give no cause for suspicion, and at the same time not
entirely to assert the contrary. My only reason for making
it a secret at present is to get something to live upon little-
pendent, else 1 should not care to make it known imme-
diately ; but as that is not the case yet I must be a little
cautious. It loins me to act-so, for, in one point of view, it
makes me act as if wronging you, whilst, indeed, eest outwit

" October the 26th, 1793.
" My intenti,,n is, as soon as you are arrived in London,
and that I
.Isr.ow of it, to take an .apartment for you here;
but you must change your name fur the time, And follow
xactly all my directions; for your own welfare, as well as
mhos depend most entirely upon it. My mind is not accus-
tomed to deception ; but if we wish to work for futurity we
nest carry on the deception for some months longer. 1
nave most minutely examined every thing here, and find this
most prudent. You may repine at this,. my soul's dearest
lelight ! but your Augustus, your own Augustus, who must
solely think for his own Augusta, after mature consideration,
has found this abstutely necessary; therefore my dearest
wife will submit to it with readiness. You must desire Lady
Dunmore, if she loves me, to conceal her arrival as much as
possible, to see very few people in London, and you none at
all, fix fear of a discovery; and then, while she goes into
the country, I will contrive your coming hero; but, my
dearest A agusta, you must not expect to see much of me,
except in the afternoon."
" My dearest Augusta knows that I have but vervfew mo-
ments to myself, wherefore she will not be angry, 1 trust, to
find :tuy letter short, but take will for the deed. That you
are got quite well makes me very happy; at least je Otte
that 3 on hy this tuna are so, and intend informing me when
I may have hopes of seeing you. My dearest Augusta
will, without doubt, believe that I most anxiously look
foe ward to that epoch which, though not in pro-
bability a very long one, will yet be pleasing, and give
us a great idea of what future times will be, when we never
shall part. We will certainly employ our time well when
we are together; won't we, my dearest wife? We must
settle everything together, that after your being brought to
bed we may join immediately. With what pleasure I look
forward to that moment, my lovely Augusta; words cannot
tell, but my actions shall prove it; as also that I am worthy
of possessing her in my own house, who has only a right to
be there, and to be second in command."
"It had been my intention, my dearest Augusta, not
to have wrote to you before my letter had been de-
livered to his Majesty, and an answer was returned.
As tl.is is not yet done, though any letter is finished,
I write to you now, and inform you of the reasons
which hove kept me back from doing so, and not

PUBLIC NOTICE.
434, OXFORD-STREET.

" Rome, April the 19th, 1794.—M05t happy did thy two
dear letters of last night make me, my truly amiable Augusta.
The last post missed, so that I got two at Once, my trea-
sure, which more than compensated for the anxiety my wife's
silence gave me. You tell me, my :low, that this month
your trial is to come on. I tremble fbr it, because my best
half is to endure the whole attack which pride, envy, and
malice can invent, whilst the other is at Rome, incapable
of rendering her any service. Oh, my Augusta! my angel!
what persecutions you must endure for me ; indeed, my
soul's delight, it will ever be the study of my life to prove
to you my gratitude on every occasion, but never shall
be able to do enough. Words cannot suffice, nor action;
but if I see you in some manner happy, that is all I can de-
sire. Let the courts determine what they please, you are al-
ways ray wife •, the dearest one I could ever have, and the
only one I will have. Acknowledge thee I ever will, and
whoever won't look upon thee as such shall never enter our
house. What is sacred, no one oan break; and tho' for a
moment our child may be persecuted, a time will come when
he shall have justice done him, and my name he shall ever
have, yours also, for we are but one.
" Augusta, my dear wife, mind, in spite of every profane
law, that by the sacred you are mine, and mine only, till
death us do part."
" In short, whatever may happen, my dearest Augusta
knows her duty, that she has promised to be my wife; and
that though the judges on earth do not acknowledge it, the
Great Judge of all, to whom every one must once give an
account of his actions, has received our mutual promises, and
inserted them in a book from which no spiritual or profane
hands can ever blot them. Secure in this truth, I care not
for anything; and once joined by my Gussy, my own wife,
I shall brave the insults and attacks of every one, and rest
attached to her, to whom both duty and inclination solely
and most strongly bind me. Yes, my Augusta, my dearest
wife! trust to my honour. Never will I deceive you."
" My dearest Augusta,
" Though your letter of yesterday forbodes ;ne no good,
by informing me of the unfortunate sentence that will for the
moment condemn our cause, yet it is so replete with affection
that I cannot but feel grateful for thy kind expressions, and
more resolved than ever to acknowledge thee for my wife.
That you are so by the law of God no one for a moment
doubts ; nay, the most scrupulous allow this, which gives
ease to my wounded breast
" The decision of the powerful for a while must be sub-
mitted to ; but my Augusta may remain assured that as
soon as I can strike a blow with security my utmost efforts
shall be employed to that purpose. For this reason I must
most particularly intreat thy departure from England, and
joining me ; for till when we have maturely consulted about
the matter I cannot act, as both circumspection and deter-
mination must be used in the cause."
" Your letter, which you talked of in your last, and which
I had not received before, my dearest Augusta, is now come
into my hem's. My angelic wife !—for that you are, and
shall ever be as long as I live, in spite of all laws,—the
horror I felt in reading it cannot be so easily described ! I
conceive your anguish, and pity you from the bottom of my
soul, my own heart's delight ! On me you may rely,
my angel ! and be assured whatever is in my power I will
do, and with pleasure ' that I • will be constant to
you ; that I will acknowledge you for my wife you may re-
main assured of. If you can have one moment's uneasiness
on that head, my lovely Gussy, you wrong me greatly; for
instead of this affecting me it only makes me stand by you
more resolutely, and makes my love more violent, by teach-
ing me the greater obligations, in showing me all what you
suffer on my account, fbr thy love for me. Never for a mo-
ment have I, never for a moment will I; forget thee and our
cause, you may be assured."

" I trust my letter to my father will raise in him senti-
ments of affection and esteem. I wrote with delicacy, and
vet with a certain determined character, which my situation
and circumstances require
" I cannot describe to my own charming wife the strong
desire I have of seeing our dear little boy."
Major • Roche Lee then deposed to the following letters
being in the handwriting of Lady Augusta Murray ;--
"To-day my beloved Prince took a sacred, a solemn oath ;
called on Heaven to witness it ; swore before the Almighty
on the Bible never to have any wife but me, and in future to
look upon himself as sacredly promised to me. I accepted the
religious promise that the Bible had witnessed—that had been
Laclte,.ssed to the Almighty, and gave mine in exchange. I
must record this day as the forerunner of, perhaps, many
happy ones. 0 Lord, Creator of all things, I am not worthy
of the mercies you lavish upon me, but yet I dare not trust to
them."
" After again swearing to the Almighty never to marry
any man but Prince Augustus, after swearing to look upon
myself as sacredly bound by these oaths, and those I had
.taken to him, which I did with great fervour, upon reading
over again those with which he binds himself to be my hus-
band, I answered the dear letter his servant brought me. I
thanked him with gratitude for the repeated proofs of love he
gives me ; but I dare not yet thank my Almighty fbr having
(given] me a husband who will ever love me, and whom my
ardent wishes to make happy may make so, I dare not yet trust
to his being mine according to the rights of cur Church. And
what are oaths nnsametlor.ed there? they bind the honour-
able, hot they tick not satisfy the world."
tt I 4 and now come to the more serious part of your letter, my
dearest love. You tall me you will speak to Mr. Gunn about
your intention of marrying, and not name me ; but I think,
when you do confide in him sufficiently to tell him one thing,
of your business to him without insisting first nixes his sacred
you ought to tell the whole, You will not disclose any part
word of honour never to mention the subject ; consequently,

at all times, to make everything that concerns you happy and
our little offspring. No sooner, my life, did I get your letter
than I set about (ill as I was) preparing one for my father,
which when finished, I carried to my sister E., who you know
is most warmly attached to me, and is informed of every-
thing that is going on. She seemed very much agitated upon
my reading the letter, when I told her my intention was to
leave the letter behind, and secretly to come up to London,
This was first approved of, but afterwards I resolved to re.
main here. She promised me before the end of the evening
to send me some information of the remarks she had made
last night. She sent me a note, desiring for God's sake I would
nut deliver in my letter, from the following reasons That
every person who shall knowingly or wilfully presume to so-
lemnise or to assist or to be present at the celebration of any
marriage with any descf ndant of George the Second, or at his
or her making any matrimonial contract, without the King's
consent, shall, being duly convicted thereof, incur and suffer
the pains or penalties ordained and provided by the statute
of provision and premunire in the thirteenth year of Richard
the Second, which is transportation and confiscation of pro-
perty.' My sister seems afraid that the King hi his anger
would resent my behaviour, and revenge himself, not .only
upon me, but upon you also, which would be the ruin of us
both, That I bad much better not say a word till when
von are gone abroad, and of course out of danger,
`These are the motives that have kept me back.
Should you still wish, my Augusta, I will present the letter
to-morrow to the King the moment your answer arrives.
if it is your desire, and you care not for the consequence, I
am remly to submit to everything, for I can have, and truly
have, but one idea, that of making you happy as far as js in
my i,ower. I see the motives which engage you to make the
demand. I honour, I respect, I love them as much as
you do; but consider, pray consider, whether we ought
' to be eautionB or not. Our whole future felicity depends
upon it. I will. be solely and entirely guided by you, what-

Practitioners--with that gigantic balance, the Press—have eulogised
