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 SECURI-
TIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS, which shall owe their
value to the certainty of the contracts upon whiCh they are founded,
sad be independent of the liberality or caprice of those who shall be
In the management of the affairs of the Company when the claims
arise ; and for this purpose the Company have, by a clause in their
deed of 'constitution, unhesitatingly deprived themselves of the
power of objecting to any policy, unless they undertake to prbve that
it was obtained from them by fraudulent misrepresentation. The
regulations common to all other Life Companies, which make the
validity of assurance contracts dependent upon the perfect correct-
seas of the many statements required from a proposer for a Life
Policy, and which have given rise to almost all the questions which
have been argued in the Courts, and to many extra-judicial eons-
promises, are thus entirely abrogated; and nothing but fraud, proved
to have bees committed against them, can vitiate a policy granted by
this Company.
THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY from whom the assured on the
mutual principle, receive the whole of the mutual accumulations,
and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums assured.

THIS LS THE ONLY COM?ANY who bind themselves to pay
the turns in the policies, although the debts for which they were
tiTc...t, 3 shall have been liquid9ted before the claims arise. The
Company conaldering it only just towards the Assured that where
premiums have been paid for 'assuring a given • amount, that amount
should be paid ; and they undertake to de so without reference to
the state of the accounting between the assured and his debtor.
THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in favour
of creditors whale World policies, whereby' the debt is secured,
although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe.
The premiums calculated according to the Carlisle Tables, are
lower than usnalepon young lives,,where participation in the profits
in not required; and for short assurances, which, at the option of the
assured, may be continued for life, the rates are as low as a due re-
gard to complete security will permit. •

BY T1Ili: HALF PREMIUM PLAN only one-hall of the. first
seven years' premium Orequired, the .other half being payable at
at the convenience of the assured ; thus allowing a Polley to he
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. hint from
effecting a new Assurance, to continue a Policy at a rate of rremium
applicable to an. age seven years younger. The Ilalf-premium plan
of Assurance, as practised by this Company, thus enables persons
to retain to their own use the one-half of .the. premiums for Vle-
first seven years, at 5/. per cent. interest. Thus, suppose the :or-
dinary premium ibr an assurance of 500/. to be 101., the first pay-
ment by the half-premlum plan will be five guineas, being the one-
half of the 101., and interest for the retained half; and, if death
should occur In the first year, the sum of 5001. would he paid less the
retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first year
of 51.; for, the second, of 101. ; and so on till the end of the
seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 3512, may either
be repaid, or retained atsl. per cent. Interest until death, when the
351. would beoubtraeted from the 5001. then payable by the Company.

Empowered by Act of Parliament.
The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Tastitu-
tlon, both in its life assurance and deferred annuitydepartments, par-
ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex-
pense or forfeiture—thereat reduction of rates on short policies—
the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to
salt the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well
as to afford the full benefit to his family at death, and annual division
of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that
the ;society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di-
rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy
on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the
amount already invested; and this bonus, according to an equitable
scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of Adure

THE GLORY OF TRADE
Think not that we use too exalted a term,
In bes owing the name on so miithtv a firm;
The astonishing warehouse of MOSES and SON,
The mightiest trophies in commerce has wo', ;
And all who have seen what the Mart has ,:itplard,
Have pronounced it at once—" The GLORY of !BADE."
Like the Monarch of Marts does the Warehouse appear,
A giant attraction in London's vast sphere;
And crowds on the pit, with eat tsy smile,
And talk of its noble achievements the while.
The young and the aged a'ike have surverd.
With an impulse of wonder —" The Glory of Trade."
But how shall we tell of the Trade that is, done,
At the (mous depot or E. MOSES and SON?
Could we give an idea what thousands appear
To purchase the clothes which we offer them here,
Not one would dispute the assertion we've made.
When we say that our house is—". The Glory of Trade."
Come, come to our Warehouse ! We welcome you all—
The rich and the poor, and the great and the small.
In clothing and pile's E. MOSES and SON,
Unrivall'd appear, and can ne'er be outdone.
Our wonderful warehouse is t•ver di, plard,
As the greatest of Houses..

LONDON AND BIRMINGYIAM 111.1LWA.Y.—On Fri-
day a numeroua meeting of the Proprietors, Shareholders,
and Directors of the London and Birmingham Railway Coin-
pany was held at the grand terminus, Euston-square,
,for two
objects—namely, for the purpose of considering the draft of a
Bill now before Parliament, for making• a railway from
Chester to Holyhead, whereby it was intended to take power
for the Company to subscribe the sum of 1,000,000/. towards
the construction of the same, and to expresa approval or dis-
approval of the Bill ; and also to consider the draft of an-
other Bill now before Parliament, for making a railway from
the Lancaster and Preston Junction Railway, at or near
Lancaster, to or near the city of Carlisle, and the raising of
100,000/. to carry it out. 'George Carr Glynn, Esq., Chair-
man of the Board of Directors took the chair. In opening
the business ha touched first on the Holylt&ul scheme. lie
was very glad to announce that Government wets fully in
its favour ; that by it an immense Irish traffic would be -se-
cured to the new harbour at Holyhead from the centre sta-
tion of the Company at Dublin ; that the traffic list and the
eetiotates had been carefully gone through, and all promised
a profitable return to the Loudon and Birmingham Company.
Tist raction that the line be made and the money be granted
was then put and pa.ssee, emaninloPslY. The toxt fitibject
was, the Lancaster and Carlisle line, Which the Company had
equally sanguine expectations of ; and it was announced by
the Chairman that the Board of Directors had fully deter-
mined to take no further part in any Scotch lines proposed
