Empowered by Act of Parliament.
The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu-
tion, both in its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par-
ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex-
pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies—
the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to
suit 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 future
premiums

in confirmation of the views of Adam Smith and Ricardo,
are at least as well deserving of the honour of' confuta-
tion as the rag money reveries of the Brummagem
Incurables, or the trash Of the Gemini Letters. They
required answer the more, as they lay directly across Sir
Robert's path—contradicted the principles he has ad-
vanced, and dissuaded the restriction of issues he
proposes. It was a safer chivalry certainly to engage
the Attwood apostles in preference ; but it was not
paying (on Sir Robert's part) exactly the highest
compliment, either to himself, or his audience. And
what sort of relevancy had Sir Robert's citation
of the smash in America ? Remark !—the question
is not whether credit, and banking. may be abused
—but whether, with a convertible currency, the abuse
will take the shape of over-issue of notes. Does Sir
Robert Peel mean to affirm that, if not one, or only
one, of these American banks had been banks of
issue—if the United States Bank had preserved its
privileges—the loss of which he seems to consider
the source of the evil—the vast wreck of American
credit could thereby have been avoided ? Take Uncle
Sam as the head of a family—who went on borrowing
for years without means of paying—what does it signify
to the main fact of his ultimate smash, whether he
paid his servants and petty tradesmen in gold or
paper ? It was not lJncle Sam's " shin-plasters,"
but his State stocks, his railway and canal shares, his
gardens of Eden in the impervious forest, and his town
lots in the eternal swamp—that did John Ball out of his
money. Sir It Peel might as well tell us that Dense was
seduced by a shower of small notes, as that these were the
elements of corruption between us and Brother Jona-
than. We wish to heaven statesmen would try to talk less
nonsense about America. The real source of mischief
in transactions with that, as with other new countries,
is the absurd delusion prevailing in old ones about the
enormous rates of profit there to be reaped. This is
emphatically an old country delusion ; just like the vast
value of waste lands.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
STANDARD.—The two Joe Humes of Parliament—
Lord Normanby in the House of Lords,und the Josephus
ipse in the House of Commons--r/ust night raised two
debates upon the now familiar subject of Lord Ellen-
borough's recal. The Earl of Ripon in the one House,
and Sir Robert Peel in the other, resisted the produc •
Lion of the correspondence between the Board of Con-
trol and the Court of Directors, on the ground that
a full investigation, in the absence of Lord Ellen-
borough, was impossible, and that a partial dis-
closure would be unjust to his Lordship, while any
recurrence to the dispute, before the new Governor-
General should be fixed in his high office,
must render his government more difficult,
not merely by fettering his exercise of his own
independent judgment, but by exciting ground-
less hopes in some, and groundless apprehensions in
others. The noble "Joe Hume " did not make any for-
mal motion upon which a division could be taken, and
the authentic Member for Montrose was defeated by a
majority of 197 to 21. The Whigs, as represented by
Lord Campbell in the House of Lords and Mr. Macaulay
in the House of Commons, made the most
of the opportunity to worry the Government,
afforded to them by the act of the Direc-
tors ; but, after all, with little chance of &Recess, as we
suspect, in the opinion of the public. The Government,
it is not to be denied, are in a difficulty, but it is a diffi-
culty in the' creation of which they are wholly blame-
less ; a difficulty, in fact, of that kind which few who
have lived long in the world have escaped encounter-
ing at some one time or another, even in their indi-
' vidual character—a difficulty analagous to that in
which men are so often involved by the " indiscretion"
or fully of those with whom they are connected by
family ties, by friendship, or business. In such a per-
plexity it is often impossible to exculpate oneself with-
out ruining the delinquent that has involved him in it,
and seriously injuring innocent parties. When this
happens, the conscientious and prudent man submits
in silence to suspicion and reproach. This is
just the case of the Government at present; they
wish to defend the Directors against the effect
of the enormous " indiscretion" committed in the
recal of Lord Ellenborough, and they wish to protect
India from the fatal consequences of a display of dis-
union in the governing power to which that great
empire is subjected, and they are therefore compelled
to hold back the defence of their injured col-
league. Meanwhile the Directors are, without any
such intention, giving to the public the materials
of Lord Ellenberough's justification. The Morn-

ACTUARY—F. G. P. Neison, Esq.
This Office is provided with very accurately constructed tables,
by which it can assure unsound lives on equitable terms.
Similar tables enable the Society to grant increased annuities on
unsound lives, the amount varying with the particular disease.
Members of consumptive families assured at equitable rates.
Healthy lives are assured on lower terms than at most ether
offices.

The first Life Assurance Society commenced business in 1705,
and the principles of life contingencies, understood at that time to
a very limited extent only, have repeatedly undergone important
changes and improvements; but till the establishment of this So-
ciety in 1841 no attempt had ever been made to assure the lives of
persons who suffer from disease.
The science of statistics has only within a recent period been
successfully applied to the duration and mortality of disease, and
hence tables on the probability of these results could not have been
formed ; and it would evidently have been unsafe and hazardous
for any society to have undertaken the risk of assuring the lives of
persons afflicted with any particular malady. The statistical in.
formation, however, now collected, and in possession of this office,
is of so great an extent as fully to warrant the extension of life
assurance to such cases, and, in fact, to place the application of life
assurance on diseased lives on a mere secure basis than even that
on healthy lives.
It is hoped that while kept clearly in view that this Society, in
common with other offices, will assure the lives of healthy persons,
it is as yet the only one established to assure the lives of persons
labouring under disease; and to this latter feature particular atten-
tion is directed.
In the first place, because it opens a larger field for business than
all other offices can have unitedly; and in the
Second place, because that branch of assurance must, from its
own nature, be less hazardous, and its principles rest on a more
permanent foundation.
These are two highly important facts, and we shall enter into an
explanation of each ; and first, as to the prevalence of disease.
The period of life most important to an assurance office is that be-
tween 15-60 years of age, and in the following remarks we refer
exclusively to this period of life.
It will be found that the deaths in the metropolis for the two
years preceding 1842 were, from all causes, 30,518 ; and from
consumption alone, 10,688 ; showing that more than one-third of
the total deaths in that period of life takes place from the preva-
lence of a single disease; and If the same inquiry were instituted
with respect to other diseases, such as asthma, dropsy, diseases of
the head, heart. &c., it would be found that more than one-half
of the whole population would, on medical examination, be refused
admission into an assurance office. If the inquiry be carried to
the principal towns in England, like facts are elicited—ln Bir-
mingham, Liverpool and Manchester, the deaths from all causes,
per annum, are about 5,023, while those from consumption are
1,988, forming considerably more than one-third of the whole. The
same thing will be found to hold good in the large towns in Scot-
land, in six of which the deaths in a given period, from all causes,
amounted to 23,078, those from consumption alone to 6,359, and
from six important diseases, 9,754 ; in the latter case forming more
than 42 per cent, of the deaths from all causes. On reference to
the returns from the city of Glasgow for 1836-1840 It will be
found that the deaths in that period, from all causes, were 14,107,
from consumption 4,087, and a list of five diseases, 6,423, being
more than 45 per cent, of the deaths from all causes.
The diseases here alluded to are such as exist in general in a
chronic form, frequently for many years prior to death, but which,
on a strict medical examination, would effectually exclude the
persons so affected from the benefits of life assurance ; and since
it thus appears that a majority of the population is included in this
class, the value and importance of the new feature of this society
cannot fail to be justly appreciated.
The second point to be explained is the fact that there is
much less risk in assuring diseased lives. This is a feature of
paramount and vital importance to the interests of this society, and
deserves to be carefully considered.
The real risk incurred in all assurance transactions consists in
the chance to which an office is liable of experiencing a different
degree of mortality from that•expected by the tabjes on which its
caculations are founded. This difference is termed the fluctuation
of mortality, and will be found to be much less among diseased
lives than over the general population, and among selected lives.
The deaths from consumption in the metropolis per annum are
sufliciensly near the annual number which takes place in Glasgow,
from all causes, to admit of a comparison, and by reducing the
matter to figures it is found that while the fluctuation per annum
in the latter case is as high as 45 per cent., in the former it is only
9 per cent., or, in other words, the fluctuation of mortality in
consumption was only one.fifth of the other ; and in Manchester,
Liverpool, and Birmingham, even with the disadvantage of
smaller numbers, the fluctuation does not exceed 3 per cent.,
showing a remarkable uniformity in the law which determines the
mortality of this disease, and that it is more positive and absolute
In its results than that which regulates the general population.
Consumption has here been selected, not because it was consi-
dered more favourable in its results, but simply on account of the
larger numbers affording a more satisfactory proof of the question
under consideration; but the same test has been applied to a great
number of other diseases, and like results obtained. Among nine
diseases in the metropolis, including asthma, dropsy, rheumatism,
disease of the liver, of the heart, of the nervous system, &c., the
fluctuation was only 7i per cent., and in five diseases in a different
district the fluctuation was about 7 per cent., while among eleven
in another locality, and even with small numbers, the fluctuation
did not exceed 6.2 per cent. ; and taking the principal towns in
England, including Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds,
Sheffield, &c., the fluctuation over eleven of the more important
diseases was 6'4 per cent.
The remarkable uniformity in these results cannot fail to pro.
duce a conviction of the positive character of the law of mortality
in disease; indeed, there seems to be nothing within the whole
range of the doctrine of probabilities so well defined as the mor-
tality of diseased lives. The mortality of the general population
has frequently been referred to by writers as an example of the cer-
tainty of common events, but the preceding remarks must show with
how much greater certainty the mortality of diseased lives can be
depended on.
It is perhaps right to state, that, in applying the test of
fluctuation to disease, it has not been confined to one place or
class of lives, but has been extended to the principal towns in
England and Scotland, as well as to many rural districts in Eng-
land, and included the experience of one or two large societies of
select lives. This has afforded an opportunity of judging of the
effects of locality and its sanatory condition en the duratien of
life, and a remarkable fact has thus been developed, viz.,
that the value of life generally is much greater in the coun.
try districts than in large cities; but that of those persons
who suffer from disease the value of life is nearly the same. As
an example of this—the expectation at the age of 30 in the country
districts is 36.7 years; in cities (viz., Glasgow) 27.6 years—diffe-
rence 33 per cent, nearly.; but take the case of persons of that
age in whom the consumptive tendency is developed, and who will
ultimately die of consumption, and their expectation of life in the
counties of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk, will be found to be 14'5,
in cities (Glasgow) 14.4, and In the metropolis, Manchester, Bir-
mingham, 13'9 ; difference 'Ol7 per cent. (or 1.57 per cent.) It
therefore appears that while the difference between country and
town life in the former case is about 33 per cent., that in the latter
instance (consumption) the difference is almost nothing, and the
results nearly uniform. The same thing holds good with some
other diseases, which have been investigated in this manner. This
fact, although not generally understood, is only what might have
been expected by a careful consideration of the conclusion formerly
arrived at—that the fluctuation of the law of mortality in disease
is confined within a very narrow limit, and consequently little in.
fluenced by external circumstances.
Ithence appears that the fluctuation in the mortality of diseased
lives is much less than among select lives and the population gene-
rally, and therefore the risk of assuring diseased lives must also be
less.
To apply this conclusion to the affairs of an assurance office, it
may be stated, that supposing the number of lives in a society,
taking only select lives, was such that the table of mortality would
indicate 100 deaths per annum, it would be necessary to have
always sufficient funds at immediate command to meet 145 deaths;
on the other hand, an office assuring only diseased lives need not
provide for more than 109 deaths per annum; that is to say, the
risk of assuring diseased lives is to that of average lives as 9 to 45,
or only one-fifth. This fact is highly important to the interests of
this Society, and establishes beyond doubt the safety and correctness
of the principles on which it is founded.
For further information, reference is made to the prospectuses
and other published doeumonts of the Society, which may be ob.
tained, on application at the Society's offices.

_
ing Chronicle, evidently prompted from Leaden-
hall-street, says that the Directors were compelled to
dismiss the Governor-General because they were not
invested with any power to stop the supplies, and they
found their Governor-General too expensive. This re-
duces the quarrel to an affair of pounds, shillings, and
pence ; and it is extremely likely that the Parlia-
ment and the public will come to a conclusion re-
specting it very different from that at which the
Directors have arrived. Under favour, we must think
that commercial men are not the best qualified to
judge of the means by which a great empire is to be
defended, or very rich men the most disinterested
upon a question of necessary taxation—we think it
even more than probable that if it had been left to the
identical twenty-three Directors who recalled Lord
Ellenborough to decide upon our own property-tax,
the revenue would not now exhibit the surplus that
happily it does exhibit. It is only in natures of a high
order indeed, that full pockets do not prove fatal to pro-
vidence and patriotism, if not to humanity—" crescit
amor," &c., says the proverb. If the Directors and Lord
Ellenborough disagreed upon the batta—an extraordi-
nary allowance to be made to the gallant troops engaged
in foreign service—we will venture to say that the
people of England will side with him whose views were
the more liberal, more especially as the withholding the
batta in question has given occasion for mutinies, the
suppression of which has cost, in money only; to say
nothing of the sacrifice of affection, more than three or
four times the batta saved.
GLOBE.—The " principles" of Sir Robert Peel are
something like the conscience of Baillie Macwheeble,
which was described as " a good-natured conscience,
that never did him any harm." It may be said, in like
manner, of Sir Robert's " principles," that they never
do him any harm ; for he avows that he stops short of
them on system, to avoid collision with existing
interests. It is also sometimes an agreeable disap-
pointment to the interests in question to discover that
Sir Robert's bark is worse than his bite ; and accord-
ingly we find Bank Stock, and Joint •Stock Bank Shares,
as well as the Funds, showing a tendency to rise—
suspense being removed as to the weight with which
Sir Robert's paternal ferule was to descend on the cul-
prits horsed on the subministrant back of Goulburn.
We are inclined to suspect that Sir Robert Peel de-
serves the title of " the first financier of the day" in
somewhat like manner as George the Fourth deserved
that of "the first gentleman in Europe"—namely, by
making the best imaginable bow to a subject, on first
accosting it—not by having anything particular to say
to it afterwards. If " the first financier of the day" is
the man who can deal best with the common-place of
a subject—who can best establish what nobody in his
audience disputes—we confess his claim to the de-
signation. But we should have thought, that to
merit that title, there was required more than the
mere faculty to show up, at their full length, admitted
and glaring absurdities. We should have thought there
was required subtlety and acuteness to penetrate the
dark and disputed passages—the difficulties which the
subject presents to instructed persons. Sir Robert Peel
has either exercised his own mind very little on those
difficulties, or else he is diffident of his power of exposi•
tion to make them clear to other minds, or, finally, he
has taken a contemptuous measure of those of his audi-
tors, and is determined, above all things, to avoid the
example of him, who—
" Too deep for his hearers, still went on refining,
And thought of convincing, while they thought of dining."
But we must be permitted to say that, from a statesman
who makes so much fuss about the " principles" of
a subject, we had a right to expect, on this occasion,
a luminous exposition of those principles. We had
a right to expect something more than to be told that
Sir R. Peel differs from Adam Smith and Ricardo,
in their opinion that convertibility of paper currency
was sufficient to prevent over-issue; and that new lights
have been discovered since their time, which new lights
Sir Robert Peel follows. We have not the slightest in-
timation what those lights are, though we have a
shrewd guess at them; and could also, we think, enu-
merate those of them which are now burning in the
Bank parlour. But to be told that Sir Robert Peel
differs from Adam Smith and Ricardo, without
being told why, is really presuming quite sufficiently
on the Times-honoured title of " the first financier
of the day." A Minister who affects the assertion of
large "principles"—larger than he tests by practice—
incurs the obligation of giving the most complete possible
exposition of those principles. If he assumes the chair
of the public lecturer, it is incumbent on him to see that
he fills it well. Now from what lecturer on currency,
we should like to know, would be tolerated for a moment
such a skip from Brummagem and Philadelphia to con-
clusions in favour of a sole bank of issue ?—and prac-
tical propositions, not indeed going that length, but
tending in that direction ? The whole difficulty f the
subject lies—not in answering advocates of inconvertible
currency—not in expatiating on the abuses of credit,
whether on this or the other side of the
Atlantic—but in establishing the connection of those
abuses with unrestricted liberty of issue. That connec-
tion Sir R. Peel did not even attempt to establish. He
took it for granted. But he had no right to take it for
granted. He repeated merely the results of the lesson
taught him by Old Mother Hubbard and her sons. But
the correctness of that lesson is disputed. Right or wrong,
it is disputed ; and disputed by many persons of unques-
tioned abilities, and practical knowledge of the subject.
We need only mention the names of a few of the gentlemen
examined by the last Committee. Mr. Tooke, the well-
known author of the " History of Prices," and of a recent
able treatise on the currency principle. Mr. Stuckey, the
head of the banks of Somersetshi re under his firm, which are
described as admirably conducted, who was formerly, by
his position, in intimate communication with the late
Lord Liverpool (one of Sir Robert Peel's oracles) and Mr.
Huskisson, and was examined by the famous Bullion Com-
mittee. Mr. Gilbert, Mr. Alexander Blair, treasurer and
manager of the Bank of Scotland, who mentions the
circumstance that, while there has been a great exten-
sion of banking capital, and of banking accommodation,
and of banking competition, in Scotland since 1826,
the amount of the aggregate circulation has considerably
diminished. " What a commentary," observes Mr.
Tooke, "upon the received doctrine of the power of
banks to increase their issues of paper money as suits
their interest or convenience; and that it is the effect of
the competition of banks of issue to create a vast mass
of worthless paper 1" Now, we say that the opinions
of practical men, based upon facts like these, and coming
