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 £"0,000 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.

HALF CREDIT RATES OF PREMIUM.

Persons assured according to these rates are allowed credit (with.
out security) for half the amount of the first seven Annual Pre-
miums, paying interest thereon at the rate of Five per Cent, per
Annum, with the option of paying of the Principal at any thne, or
having th• amount deducted from the sum assured when the Policy
becomes a claim.

Policies may thus be effected at lower rates than arc generally
required fer the term of seven years only; whilst the holders have
the same security for the payment of their claims, whenever death
may happen, as if they paid double the amount of premium, which
would be charged for assurances effected in the usual way.

PATENT PARAGON CAMPIIINE LAM klii,-The perfection of
these Lamps over the Vesta has been happily attained by the inven-
tion of two parallel flat rings—a larger and a smaller forming a coma
round the margin of the wick, which cause a rapid reverberation of
air against the,flarne--thus constuning every particle of volatilized
vapour, it is free from smoke or smell, having perfect combustion,
and in full action, emits a light equal to 16 wax candies.
L. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Poi-
gate, will cotain, throughout the season, all the most elegant re-
cherche, and new i.,-,4terns, comprising Ormolu, China, Glass, and
Opal. Old Oil Lamps fitted the Paragon Head for 21s. ; and the

and recommended by Dr. lire, is deliver6d in screw c sby C, Wat-
