amount already invested ; and this bonus, according to an equitable
scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of faturo

to the management of the affairs if the Company when the claims
arise ; and for this purpose the Company have, by a clause in their
deed of constitution, unhesitatingly deprived themselves if the
power of objecting to any policy, unless they undertake to prove that
It was obtained from them by fraudulent misrepresentation. The
regulations cemntoit to all other Life Companies, which make the
validity if assurance contracts dependent upon the perfect correct-
ness 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, aid to many extra-judicial com-
promises, are thus entirely abrogated; and nothing but fraud, proved
to have been committed against them, can vitiate a policy granted by
this Company.
THIS IS THIS ONLY COMPANY from whom the assured on the
mutual principle, receive the whole of the mntual aectunulations,
and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums assured.
THIS IS THEI ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to pay
the sums in the policies, although the debts for which they were
effected shall have been liquidated before the claims arise. The
Company considering 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 do so without reference to
the state of the accounting between the assured and kis debtor.
THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in favour
of creditors whole world policies, whereby the debt in secured,
although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe.
Tho premiums calculated according to the Carlisle Tables, are
lower than usual upon young lives, where participation in the profits
is 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 die re-
gard to complete security will permit.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, March 13.
The Lord Chancellor did not sit in Lincoln's Inn-hall
till eleven o'clock.

BURRIDGE V. ROWE.

The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment to-day in this
case, which was argued before his Lordship some time
since upon an application from the decision of the Vice-
Chancellor Knight Bruce. His Lordship said that the
question in the case arose out of a settlement made on
the marriage of the daughter of the late Alderman Win-
chester with a gentleman of the name of Rowe. By the
terms of that settlement, Alderman Winchester was
called on, which he did, to execute a deed for the sum of
5,000/, payable to the trustees under the marriage set-
tlement after his death. He guaranteed the payment
of that amount within six months after his death, and
it was discussed upon that appeal whether the interest
was payable to the trustees. The interest was settled on
- ilitaghtev for ler
her deitii, on the children of the first husbandsurviving.
He was to have the whole income of the estate during
his life, and afterwards it was to be left to his
children by marriage. Now, there were no
children by that marriage, and on the other side
it was contended that there being no children
by that marriage, the principal went to the assignees of
Rowe, who was the first husband of Alderman Win-
chester's daughter. The assignees of Rowe had by
that deed covenanted to pay 5,0001., with six per cent.
interest, after the death of the testator ; but that
covenant must be considered as of no effect in a legal
action. The mortgage took effect, and within three
years after that the mortgage became due, and the
petitioner was a bankrupt. The trustees on that bank-
ruptcy applied to prove for the debt that would become
payable on the death of Rowe, and under that com-
mission the parties who opposed the petition contended
that they had a right to do so. The petitioner's debt was
estimated at upwards of 1,6001, and the deficiency on
that debt had been received.

On the application of Mr. COOPER, on the part of the
applicant, the assignees were ordered to have the
accounts out of the estate.
