BY THE HALF PREMIUM PLAN only one-half of the first
seven years' premium is required, the other Leif being payable at
at the convenience of the assured; thus alao wing a Policy to be
continued for seven years at one-half of th.e usual rate, or to be
dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice, and .entitling the assured,
seven years hence, when loss of health usay prevent hint from
effecting a new Assurance, to continue a Policy at a rate of premium
applicable to an age seven years younger. The Half-premium plan
of Assurance, as practised by this Company, -thus enables persons
to retain to their own use the one-half of the premiums for the
first seven years, at 51. per cent. interest. Thus, suppose the or-
dinary premium for an assurance of 5001. Ito be 10/., the first pay-
ment by the half-premium plan will be five guineas, being the one-
half of the 10/., and interest for the retaimed half; and, if death
should occur in the first year, the sum of 5061. would be paidsleattie
51. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the'flYSt year
of 51.; for the second, of 101.-; and so Oct till the end of the
seventh year, when the retained sums, amonntii ig to 35/., may either
be repaid, or retained at 51. per cent. interest -until death, when the
35/. would be subtracted from the 5001. then pay able by the Company.

REPORT of the BRITISH COLLI 3GE of
HEALTH, New-road, London, for 1843.
In the year 1828 the above Establishment was_ foundet Iny James
Morison, the Hygeist, who, together with a great numbe. r of indivi-
duals, became members thereof, in order the more ell 'et .tually to
carry out those principles in medicine known as the ‘. H. yg eian Sys-
tem" which have from interested motives been so violetn tly opposed
by the Faculty, but which they (the Hygeists), notwithstar id ing, coo.
scientiously believe to be founded in truth. Time, the r test of all
theories, has meat certainly proved the truth of that sys ti The
Hygeian agents in different parts of the world, who are 1 iighly re-
spectable personst have all concurred in their reports as t o the cure
of disease by Monson's Medicines, when many of the p a rties had
been given over as incurable under the ordinary medical ti a .?.atment ;
these facts are on record throughout the different parts of t he globe,
and, therefore, Hygeists are justified in denouncing the p rs :sent sys-
tem of doctors (the organic pathology) as being altogether f. Ounded in
error, which, we submit, is empty proved by the fact of do ci ors being
at this day' quite at variance with one another, both as r e gards the
theory of disease and ifs practice—hence have we the Vs er Cure,
Homeopathy, Mesmerism, &c. The fact of medical men b ei .ng gene-
rally persons of education is not of itself at all conclusi rre of their
being the most competent to cure disease, if it can be pro v ed, as we
say it can, that, from interested motives, the medical scl y, 3019 have
diverged from the path of simple nature, and for profit 1 a. ave made
the science of medicine one of confusion, not to be underst, ar id by even
the wisest man that ever lived; in proof of which asserti, we refer
the public to the medical works of the day, which contai n the roost
&grant contradictions and absurdities. Mr. Morison, or i ,the other
hand, proceeding upon e simple, but truel and Inatun il theory—
namely, that all diseases, however they may show them el yes, have
their origin in an impure state of the blood and fluids, so • that there
is, in fact, but one disease—administers at once the Vegs if able Uni.
venal Medicine ; and he, and those connectet with his s) st em, have
invariably found,* that when the disease was curable i t has been
cured by that simple process, whilst, if the same disco se had been
submitted to learned doctors, they would have tried, per h aps, innu.
merable prescriptions, all dignified with Latin names, any 10 after all,
have left the patient where they found him, if not worse I. We say
these are facts of every day occurrence, and that those w b .o will in.
quire into this important question will find them such We are
aware that the practice of a system like the Morisonian i mould not
sufficiently remunerate doctors, since every person might' it, us become
his own physician. The public will, therefore, not be much a srprised that
the Faculty should have adopted a system founded on t *gamic prin-
ciples, as if the body were a piece of patchwork. which t consequently
obliges all persons (except Hygeists) to have recourse to them in
cases of disease; hence we see, in almost every street, in ye and ear
infirmaries, and other establishments for treating differ a nt parts of
the body.
In conclusion, we have to lay before the public an extra , e t from the
last Report of Hie Exeter Hygeian Dispensary, together a 'ith Lady
Grey's last letter, and the amount paid by us for stamps to the Bri-
tish Government, &c., all of which we submit is corrobo rat .ive of the
foregoing allegation, namely, that the present system o f doctors in
treating diseases on organic principles is altogether error eves.
(Signed) MORISON, MOAT, and CO. , Ilygeists.
• At the Exeter Hygeian Dispensary upwards of 4,C 00 poor per.
sons have been restored to health by the Hygeian meet tines, many
of whom had been declared incurable in the Exeter hos ialtals under
doctors' treatment. The Dispensary, situate at 91, Foi t'-street-hill,
Exeter, has now been in full operation during the last eight years,
and is under the direction of Richard Tothill, Esq., to whom the
public is referred as regards the proceedings at that Instil a ition.
Case of Cure reported by Lady Sophia Giey.
Sandiway, Decem' le r 7, 1843.
Gentlemen,—By the wish of our labourer, G. Greaves I write to
say that he wishes it to be known how greatly he has be .nefited by
taking your most excellent medicines. When we came Is this place
he was a poor sickly young man, so often tied tip with vie At nt attacks
of asthma, that the farmers would not employ him, an, i Mr. Booth
Grey gave him little jobs when able to do anything. I i R stantly per-
suaded him to take your Pills in small doses, alternate') No. 1 and
No. 2. He Is is done so, never exceeding seven pills at a d ose, and is
now a very healthy man, and able to work like any oth e r labourer,
and not affected by every change in the weather. I hays known se-
veral that have received great benefit from your Pills in t. I is most dis-
tressing complaint. I have several bad cases in hand, ar o 1 no words
can describe the blessing this medicine is to the poor. I I lave seve-
ral patients I have never seen, but send the advice by let! tt ; but am
not deceived, as I have friends who watch their progress. As for my.
self I should have been dead years ago if it had not bee n for your
Pills and the mercy of my Heavenly Father.
I remain, Gentlemen, yours sincerely obliged,
SOPIII As. GREY.

the power to pass his water; consequently Mr. Perk ix s, surgeon,
of Exeter, was sent for to piss the catheter and drew it off. Mr.
Potter was otherwise extremely ill from rheumatic t boy t. so much
