LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY,
3, Charlotte row, Mansion house, London.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who are bound by their
deed of constitution not to dispute any policy, unless they can prove
that it was obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation; the great aim
and object having been to render Life Policies COMPLETE SE-
CURITIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY from whom the assured,
on the mutual principle, receives the whole of the mutual accu-
mulations, and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums
assured.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to
pay the sums in the policies, although the debts for which they were
effected shall lace been liquidated before the claims arise.
THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in
favour of creditors whole world policies, whereby the debt is se-
cured, although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe.
BY THE HALF PREMIUM PLAN only one.half of the
first seven years' premium is required. thz other half being pay-
able at the convenience of the assured ; thus allowing a Policy to
be continued for seven years at one.half of the usual rate, or to
be dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice, and entitling the
assured, seven years hence, when loss of health may prevent him
from affecting a new Assurance, to continue a Policy at a rate of
premium applicable to an age seven years younger.

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 £co,oolo per
annum, yearly increasing, and an accumulating Assurance Fund IR -
vested in Government and other available securities, of considerably
lager amount than the estimated liabilities of the Company.
The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale compatible
with the securitu of the Assured, and the stability of the Company,
thereby, in effect, riving 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.

ll' follows from the recent investigations of the
British Association for the Advancement of Science, as
reported in the Athenaeum of October 19, that the quantity of
light furnished by one pound of PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES
requires for its production four pounds of ordinary tallow ones; and,
therefore, that the former, if at two shillings per lb., would be
exactly as economical as the latter at sixpence per lb. Now,
PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES are not sold at two shillings per
lb., but at or under One Shilling per lb.

They may be had of respectable dealers throughout the king.
dom, if care be taken to prevent any imitations being passed off as
the Patent Candles ; and the Trade may obtain them wholesale
from Edward Price and Co., Belmont, Vauxhall, and Palmer and
Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.

THE CHEAPEST TALLOW Es.
Those who burn these are recommended to make one trial
whether PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES do not give so much
more light as to be in reality cheaper.

OPINIONS OF TYE PRESS.
"We regard the work before us, the Silent Friend,' as a work
embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints
hitherto little understood, and passed over by a ma;ority of the me-
dical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must
however confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable
impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially
wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from
indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained In its pages."—Age and
Argus.

" The authors of the Silent Friend' seem to be thoroughly con-
versant with the treatment of a class of complaints, which are, we
fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous ~,tyle in
which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those
who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to
recommend to it a careftil perusal."—Era.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY IN RUTLAND.—On Monday
the metropolitan police received information of a bur-
glary of a very daring and extensive nature having been
committed on the night of the 9th instant at the house
of the Rev. George Pochin, of Glaston, in the county of
Rutland. The burglars, four in number, broke into the
house at twelve o'clock at night, and succeeded, by inti-
midation, in possessing themselves of ten 101. notes and
five 5/. notes of the Leicestershire Banking Company, the
Stamford Bank, and other county banks, several sove-
reigns, some silver, and a large quantity of plate, con-
sisting of silver ladles, table, dessert, and tea spoons, all
marked G. P., and with Mr. Pochin's crest, a griffin.
Mr. Pochin has offered a reward of 100/. for the appre-
hension and conviction of the offenders,
