This Society is essentially one of Mutual Assurance, in which. the
Premiums of its Members are reduced after seven years to the lowest
amonnt consistent with safety. The average rate of reduction,
during the last seven years, has exceeded 60 per cent
But the Society also undertakes other descriptions of Assurance,
in which the assured do not become members'; and An order to confer
on these a corresponding advantage of Reduced Premiums, the Court
of Directors, having ceased to allow any Agency Commission, have
determined to effect this Class of Assurances in future at the follow-
ing very low rates, and it has also been determined to reduce the
Premiums charged upon existing Policies of the same Class to the
same Scale.

THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA.
On Monday morning, before nine, a considerable number
of persons had assembled in Dover-street for the purpose of
catching a glimpse of his Imperial Majesty, who, it was
understood, would leave the Embassy (Ashburnham House),
at an early.hour, for the purpose of paying various visits.
About nine o'clock a party of the C division of police, under
Mr. Superintendent Baker, were posted near the gates to _
preserve free ingress and egress, and even at that hour their
services were found necessary, several of the nobility and
gentry having then called and left their names, and up to
twelve o'clock the Influx had been considerable, attended
with some inconvenience, arising from the small *size of the
lodge, and
.consequent difficulty' of access to the books in
which the autographs were taken.
VISIT TO STORK AND MORTIMER'S.
This splendid and unique establishment was the first to be
honoured With the" August Emperor's commands. On Sa-
turday night, as late as twelve o'clock, ainessage was sent to,
Messrs. Hunt and Roskell, known as Storr and Mortimer,
the eminent jewellers and silversmiths, in New Bond-street,
intimating that his Majesty would be there as early as nine
o'clock on Monday, morning, which being much earlier than
the attendants are usually present, caused some considerable
bustle to prepare for his Majesty's reception. Two of
the Ral carriages and Colonel Wyld were in Dover-
street for the service of the Emperor at an early hour, but
shortly before ten o'clock they drove away, and in five minutes
afterwards the Imperial Monarch proceeded in his private
barouche, attended by Baron Brunnow, Count Orloff, and
suite, to that celebrated emporium of tastefully arranged
gyms and precious metals, Messrs. Storr and Mortimer, and
having been conducted over the establishment by the prin-
cipals, repeatedly expressed his admiration at the beauty of
the construction, and the costliness and magnificent display
~of bijouterie contained in this well known establishment. His
Majesty concluded his visit by making some most liberal
purchases, consisting of valuable diamond and other rings,
pins, brooches,, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, seals, chains,
&c. His Majesty then proceeded to visit Lord Heytesbury,
formerly ambassador to the Court of Russia, and whom his
Majesty esteems as a private friend; from thence he pro-
ceeded to pay several visits to other noblemen who have
been connected with Russian diplomatic missions. His Ma-
jesty left for Windsor Castle at three o'clock.
