UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
TEMPORARY OFFICES DURING THE ALTERATIONS,
No. 24, REGENT-STREET, WATERLOO-PLACE, 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 security in a large paid-up Capital, and in the great success
which has attended it since its commencement in 1834, its ANNUAL
INCOME being UPWARDS of 72,0001.
In 1841 the Company declared an addition to the Shareholders of
ono-half of their Stock, and also added a Bonus of 21. per cent. per
annum, on the Sum Insured to all Policies of the Participating Class
from the time they wet o effected.
The Bonus added to Policies front March, 1834, to December 31,
1840, is as follows :
Sum Time Sam added Sum Time Sum added
Assured. Assured. to Policy. Assured. Assured. to Polley.
£5OOO 6 yrs. 10 mths. £683 6 8 £5OOO 4 years £4OO
5000 6 years 600 0 0 5000 2 years 200
The Premhuns,, 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. 28,

LOW RATES OF PREMIUM.
In addition to the subscribed Capital of 300,0001., the Assured have
the security of the Company's income of nearly 60,0001. per annum,
yearly increasing, and an accumulating Assurance Fund invested in
Government and other available securities, of considerably larger
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.

THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL versus

AUSTIN.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Our attention has been just called to your
.report of this case, which we must say is not only far
from correct, but will operate greatly and unjustly to
the prejudice of our client, the defendant. There was
no evidence given, nor was it the fact, that Messrs.
Robinson sent the defendant to pay the duty of 851.
payable upon silk, as stated in your report; this was
merely the statement of counsel, too frequently made
without foundation ; were this all the defendant had
to complain of, we should have advised him to disre-
gard it, but you represent that having entered into
recognizances for hia appearance at the Old Bailey he
did rot appear when the sessions came on, and there-
fore the present prosecution was instituted. No such
statement either was or could be made ; the fact is,
the defendant did appear, and was prepared to defend
himself, but in consequence of Messrs. Robinson
having fled the country, no further proceedings took
place; this was distinctly stated by the def-ndantq
counsel, and unco,,tra'licted by the Crown. We are
p•,rsuaded you will feel the justice of correcting so
serious an error, and remain, Sir, your very obedient
servants, J. and C. ROBINSON.

their respective ports, with the least possible delay, viz.:—
"An account of the number of tons of coals, culm, and cin-
ders, respectively, shipped at their several ports to other
potrs of the United Kingdom, during the year 1844."

THE REMOVAL OF PAUPERS.

Mr. WILES, in allusion to this Bill, said, that at this ad-
vanced period of the session, when Bills were passed at the
rate of a dozen an hour, he wished to call the attention of
the Court to its nature and object. It provided that those
parishes the population of which did not exceed 30,000 should
be exempted from the expense attendant upon the removal of
Paupers to Ireland and the Islands of Guernsey and Jer-
sey, and affixed that charge upon the county rate. He con-
sidered that an act of gross injustice towards the large parishes.
Again, the Act gave: the Poor-law Commissioners the power
to direct the proceedings to be taken in all appeals against
orders of removal, which appeals are in future to be carried on
by their own solicitor and under their directions, although all
costs, charges, &c., are to be defrayed out of the county rate.
The Bill had been brought into Parliament by the Home-office,
and flows tood for a second reading.
Sir B. HALL said he thought it was incumbent upon the
Court to communicate with the Home-office upon the subject,
and point out the difficulties that would arise if the Bill were
passed in its present shape.
After a brief discussion, the matter was referred to the Par-
liamentary Committee, with instructions to take such steps
thereupon as they might deem necessary.

THE HANWELL LUNATIC ASYLUM,
The report of the visiting justices of the above asylum was
read, and after a reference to the non-restrrint system
adopted there, the report proceeded to state that it was with
very great reluctance the visiting justices felt themselves
called upon to notice in terms of disapproval many of the
clauses in the Bill now before Parliament for the future re-
gulation of county lunatic asylums, and the case of pauper
lu-
natics generally. Ihe report proceeded to point out several
clauses, which, :in the opinion of the visiting justices, were
t
highly objectionable, as far as they applied to the management
of the County Lunatic Asylum at Hanwell, and mor e particu-
larly
eto the power with which it was proposed m
to invest the
Commissioners of Lunacy.
After a long discussion, the report was received and adopted,
and a committee appointed to confer with Sir' James Graham on
the subject.
HOUSE OF coaarcrioN.
The report of the Visiting Justices, with reference to this
prison, stated that there are' at present withins its walls 806
prisoliers, viz., 654 males, 144 females, and 8 children.
THE NP:I7 PhISO.N.

The Visiting Justices of this prison reported that it coktained
110 prisoners.
COUNTY RATE.

On the motion of Sir BENJAMIN
HALL, a county rate of
Id. in the pound was agreed to.
Some routine business was then disposed of, after which
the Court adjourned.

Mr. Edward Ellice, M.P., with family and servants,
arrived at Fort-William from Glasgow on Wednesday evening, by
the Marquis of Breadalbane ach. Next morning the party were
to proceed to Mr. Ellice's Highland estate of Glenquoich.—lnver-

A FREEHOLD VILLA,

which, it may be safely affirmed, for its size, will not yield to any-
thing contemporaneous. It is, in fact, one of

THE MOST DELIGIIFUL BIJOUX
THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE KINGDOM,

and the great difficulty that presents itself to the composer is to do
it justice without encountering the idea of having too highly
coloured the landscape. However this arduous task shall be ander.
taken.

BERKLEY LODGE IS HALF WAY ON THE DECLIVITY
AT BOUGHTON HILL,
and its splendid grounds run parallel to the passing seems of this
interesting road. In days of yore Boughton Hill presented a
fearful obstacle to enjoy, without alloy, all the accessories this
lovely spot had in store. In our boyish days it was aocounted
an herculean task to reach the summit, but Mr. M'Atlam, with his
powerful mind and road-making powers, soon removed the
imaginary difficulty, and that which previously was a fearful ob.
stacle to encounter, is now a gentle and almost unperceived ascent.
Upon this hill now dwells
THE INCOMPARABLE VILLA,

the property of, and completed in his usual good taste "by Henry
Woolright, Esq., of which a moderated account is to follow
:
THE GARDEN OF ENGLAND

and the garden of Kent have been held as synonymous terms ;
and it has long since been conceded to this spot, that throughout
Kent, it stands unrivalled. It is first seen nestling amid the
ambrosial grounds, with clumps of trees to vary the scene, stretch.
ing their wide and shadowy arms far across the green sward that
encompasses it. The natural beauty of this position it will not
be attempted to describe, because it is fearlessly asserted that it
Must be seen or it eannot be appreciated ; the beauties that press
on the enraptured sight, strewed by the hands of Art and Nature,
combined over this surface, will hold a place in the memory
which never can be effaced, and ere the visit is half completed, with
common assent it will be responded to by all,

GLASGOW, BARRNEAD, AND NEILSTON

DIRECT RAILWAY.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)

➢ir. HILDYARD then replied on behalf of the promoters of the
Bill. He considered the line of the opposing party would be
rather an obstruction instead of an advantage to the public. His
Learned Friend had complained of competition, but it would be
seen that something of the kind was necessary when they had
the fact before them of the Railway Company buying off the oppo-
sition of the Canal Company between Glasgow and Paisley for
1,3001. a year, which left Barrhead altogether without cheap ac-
commodation. As for Kilmarnock, by the Ayr Railway it was
thirty-two miles from Glasgow—the direct distance was only nine-
teen miles. After defending the estimates and the toll clauses
from the attack which had been made upon them, he concluded
by calling on the Committee to pass the Bill.
The room was then cleared, and after a short deliberation, we
were admitted, when

The CHAIRMAN intimated that the preamble had been proved.
A short discussion then arose respecting a clause which the op-
posing party wished to introduce into the Bill, and to which the
Committee and the promoters had no objection, only there were
some doubts as to whether it was not a money clause. It was,
however, arranged in the meantime, that the Bill be reported
without the clause, and if it was ascertained not to be a money
clause, it could be introduced on the third reading.
The Committee then separated.

The Committee then proceeded with the clauses of the London
and York Bill, as. amended, the 16th being passed, but another
inserted giving the trustees of St. Bartholomew's Hospital the
right of preemption of any part of the estate not required for the
purposes of the railway, and enjoining the Company to give, at the
end of three years, a notice of what amount of property they re-
quired.

The other clauses were all agreed to, and the Committee ad.
journed till to.morrow.

A LOW CLEAR RENT OF 1401. A YEAR.

May be viewed until the Sale, and particulars had at the Pusey
Hurze Inn, Earingdon.road, which is close to the Farm; the
Crown and Thistle, Abingdon ; Angel and Star, Oxford ; the
Prince of Wales, Faringdon.road.station ; of Messrs. Hedges and
Sons, solicitors, Wallingford ; at the Auction Mart, and at Mr.
George Robins's offices, Covent.garden.

IN ROTHERHITHE.—A Valuable FREEHOLD ESTATE.
The GLOBE DOCK, with the Essential Buildings thereupon;
Wet and Dry Docks, large Warehouses, and a Residence.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS will SELL by
AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on Tnunsnav, the 21st
of August, at Twelve o'clock, in One Lot, by direction of
THE PROPRIETORS,
an exceeding improvable Freehold Property. It is situate in the
best part, that is

IN ROTIIERIIITHE.ST LEET,

with a

FRON'TAGE " EXTENDING TO 253 FEET,"
and an

INVALUABLE WATER FRONTAGE
ABUTTING ON THE RIVER ,THAMES, 278 FEET,

and in immediate connexion with
THE THAMES TUNNEL

This Property is altogether exceedingly desirable as a permanent
Investment, but Mr. Robins, in following his undeviating course,
must begin by acknowledging that before the contemplated large
revenue becomes manifest a considerable outlay must take place,
as the Buildings arc by no means in good order.
The Property, it will have been seen, is very extensive, and in.
eludes that which must always be a valuable source of Income,
THE WEI' DOCK IS 108 FEET Bit 52,
THE DRY DOCK 132 FEET BY 66.

The Rental from these alone will be very great, but there is be-
sides a Residence adapted to a Ship Builder (this only requires to
be ornamented), two smaller abodes, with an oakum loft 35 feet
by 18, a mould loft 40 feet by 20, the Saw Pit and Wheel, a
ilacksmith's Shop, with

CAPITAL AND VERY SPACIOUS

STORE-ROOMS AND WAREHOUSE, EACH 71 FEET

LONG.

Also a Counting-house, Warehouse for Mould loft, and Joiner's
Shop, and a very substantial range of Warehouses•—invaluable all
this to a manufacturer, engineer, or any one connected with the
purposes of steam. The present Rental will:be a considerable one
but he must be indeed very wise and have the gift of prophecy
who can forctel to what extent it will arrive within twelve months
after the termination of this long peace.

Particulars will he ready, with a descriptive plan, fourteen days
prior to the sale, and then had, at the Globe Wharf. Rotherhithe;
Mr. John Sedger, Builder, Globe Dock; Messrs. Farrer and
Parkinson, and Messrs. Cox and Williams, Lincoln's Inn-fields;
Mr. Shaw's Offices, Christ's Hospital ; the Mart, and in Covent_
