The letfling prinetple•of this Mutual Assurance Society Is, that the
whole Fronts 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 rollei-es have
been at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum on the sum assured and on
the rested bonus.
Thus the holder of a Policy for 1,0007. effected cat the Ist of March,
will, if it become a claim during the present year, he entitled
to 1,2977.; or, if effected on or before the let March, 1833, to 1,2737.,
and so ou as regards other Polities.
The Accumulated Fund exceeds 200,0007., said the Annual Revenue
is above 70,0001., the whole being in a course • steady and increas-
ing prosperity.
No other Life Assurance Institution whatever can warrantabily
hold cut greeter adra Maps to parties Assuring than this Society does.

EMPLOYMENT.—Persons having a little time
to spare are apprLicd that Agents continue to be appo:nted 11
Donlon, and eetuitry towns, by the EAST INDIA TEA CO.IIPANY,
or the sale of their celebrated Leas.

Cidices, No. t, Great St. Helen's-churchyard, Bishopsgate-street.
They are packed in showy leaden canisters, Awn one ounce to a
pound, with the price and weight marked on each packet, and but
title trouble is occasioned by the sale. The license is only lls. per
annum, and many during the last nineteea years have realised con-
sidcrable incomes by the agency without sue shilling let or loss.
Application to be made (if by letter post-paid) as above.

PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES burn without
snuffing, like the finest wax, and arc cheaper, in proportion
to the light given, than the commonest tallow one. They are sold
by respectable dealers throughout the country, at or under One
Shilling per lb., and wholesale to the Trade by EDWARD PRICE
and CO., Belmont, Vauxhall; and Palmer and Co., Sutton.street.
Clerkenwell.

Purchasers must insist upon being supplied in the shops with
" Price's Patent Candles," or they are very likely to get some of
the imitations, on account of the greater profit afforded to the
dealer by these latter.
