The Periodical Valuation of the Policies effected with this Com-
pany on the Return System will be made after the 3d of July, 1847,
when an equitable proportion of the surplus premiums will be allotted
to the holder of every such Policy issued prior to that date.
The peculiar feature in the mode of division adopted by this Com-
pany consists In the admission of every member to participate in the
surplus he has assisted to create.
The general plan of the office comprises all the real advantages of
which the system of life assurance is susceptible. Insurances may
be effected on the return or non-return systems ; in either case the
assured will be guaranteed from all liability of partnership, and will
possess the most ample security arising from the large accumulations
of the Company invested in the Government funds, and the unlimited
reponsibility of its proprietary.

LiELTERS WATER, commonly known in 'Eng-.
- laud as SET.TZER. WATER.

„
Messrs. Schweppe and Co , importers of the .above Waters, beg
respectfully to Inform the public, that they continue to receive, as
heretofore, regular importations of the freshest fillings from the
springs of. Nassau, through their resident Agent, who personally su-
perintends the packing and forwarding them to their Address in
London, in baskets of 60 quarts and 100 pints each. The cork of
each bottle is stamped at the bottom, with the ducal crown, and the
words, "Nasser', Setters, &c.” sealed at the top, with the date, spe-
cifying the year when filled. This will be a far better proof of
the freshness, as well as the genuineness of the water, than
any additional covering to the cork, which may as well be ap-
plied in this country as at the springs, and which affords,
therefore, no security to the public beyond the respectability of the
parties adopting such a fancied guarantee. The Duke of Nassau,
by any recent arrangement, has placed no impediment to the waters
of his celebrated springs reaching this country, through resident
agents, and Messrs. Schweppe and Co. continue, without the slightest
interruption, to import large quantities through the same agent, on
the Rhine, whom they have employed for twenty years past. They
received their first and second shipments on the 12th and 31st of
May, being the first parcels that reached. this country, a portion of
which went to Buckingham Palace, for the use of her Majesty and
the Court, and the rest, as usual, distributed among the first classes in
the kingdom. They expect their third shipment in a a few days.
These waters are obtainable together with their well-known Soda
and other Aerated waters of their agents,'in nearly every town in
the United Kingdom.

SHALDERS'S ALL-POWERFUL FOUN-
TAIN PUMPS,
CONSIDERED BY EMINENT MEN TO .BE THE GREATEST
ADVANCEMENT IN THE USEFUL ARTS IN MODERN

TIMES.
These Pumps, with the same motive power, by acting without fric-
tion or leakage, are found in practice upon an average to be seventy
per cent. more effective than the best Friction Pumps.
N.B. When a Friction Pump raises 61bs. and a Fountain Pump
10lbs. of water per stroke 20 feet high, a man can make as many
strokes with the one as with the other is the same time.
What a noble stride in the art of raising water truly, after the
world for 2,000 years had been struggling with Pistons stuckl fast in
Cylinders. Happily, however, for a lasting public benefit, Pistons
are now completely liberated by the new Conical Pumps, and one of
the most glorious victories ever achieved obtained over both friction
and leakage. Whilst both those frightful defects, that probably tax
the world annually some millions sterling, must abide with the old
Cylindrical Pumps for ever.
If George Stephenson, Esq., places a Friction Pump by the side of
a Fountain Pump upon his Yarmouth Railway for constant trials by
manual power, he will rectify his judgment respecting the two
Pumps, and gladly discover, after all his great experience in Pump
work, that the best Friction Pumps are but poor contrivances for
raising water, when fairly tested against Fountain Pumps well car-
ried out, which for the last twenty years have never been equalled,
nor can ever be surpassed.
Tombland public Fountain Pump (Norwich) raised 30 tons of
water per day for watering the streets, and supplied the inhabitants
with water for two years, before the first connector failed, when a
new connector was fixed in two hours, and the Fountain Pump again
performed the same work with half the labour of the former
Friction Pump.
THE RIGHT WAY OF RAISING WATER IS FOUND OUT.
Therefore, could all engineers at once learn to carry out well this
simple invention, the God-send would prove one of the most im-
portant discoveries ever made. In its infancy even mark its
BEICENT RESULTS :
Numbers of houses and numbers of ships, hundreds and hundreds
of lives, thousands and tens of thousands of pounds worth of pro-
perty have been preserved from destruction through the instrumen-
tality of the Fountain Pumps and the Portable Fire Engines.
" We may now consider the Six Guineas well laid out for Shal-
ders's Portable Engine, as it saved the Union office above a hundred
times that sum at Mr. Neaves, Agricultural Incendiary Fire, Wind-
ham."—The Agent's remark to the Norwich Secretary :
STOKE MILLS ON FIRE.

" On Wednesday last, about nine o'clock In the evening, a fire was
discovered at the mills occupied by Messrs. Colman, of Stoke, four
miles from Norwich. Information of the occurrence soon arrived in
the city, when the Corporation and Union tire-engines were sent in
great haste to the mills, but when halfway on the road, information
was received that the fire was got under. Fortunately Messrs. Col-
man a lbw months before bought one of Shalders's admirable Por-
table Fire Engines, which being brought to bear immediately on the
blaze, the fire was speedily extinguished. Part of the flooring was
burnt, and a quantity of wheat in the granary injured."—Norfolk
Chronicle, July 5, 1845.
At Norwich twelve destructive fires have been extinguished by
Shalders's ever-ready Portable Fire Engines.
For further information and abundant proof that Fountain Primps
are most durable machines, see Mechanics' Magazine, Nov. 16, 1844.

THE TWO COUSINS.
A TALE.
From the country two cousins arrived Vother day,
With an equal amount their expenses to pay. "
The first one, determined to cut a great dash.
In the West-end resided and laid out his cash.
The highest-priced tailors alone be employ'di
Short time was his finery worn and enjoyed i
The cost was so high that it emptied his parse,
And he soon was left shabby ; oh, what can be worse
Now his cousin three sults to his one wore meanwhile .e
Made of far better cloth; and in far better style ;
• For all three he was charged what the first paid for one,
. And he ended well clad In the way he'd begun. -
He had managed his matters with prudence and skill,

Every customer will be enabled to ascertain the value and quan-
tity of material required for every variety of Garment. Each cloth and
cassimere, &c., being marked in figures, at the price per yard.
SAMUEL, BROTHERS, explain to their patrons the quantity that is
necessary for the particular article of dress wanted, and charge sepa-
rately for the making and trimming. The peculiar advantages of
the system may be practically exemplified as follows :—The average
quantity of cloth for a coat is 1% yards. Suppose the cloth selected
to be 12a. per yard, the material would cost 21a., our charge would be
20$. for making and trimmings, and thus a first-rate coat, made to
measure, and completed in the best style, will be obtained for 415,;
few, if any, charge less than 50s. or 525. for the same article. The
sane saving will be effected in every description of clothing.
SAMUEL, BROTHERS', charge for making and trimming cosfts for
cloths under 10s. per yard is 18s., and for the higher price cloths 20s.
Should any article (after it has been paid for) not please. they will
exchange it, or return the money without demur.
