LIFE DEPARTMENT.
ACTCARV.—J. T. Clement, Esq,
At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to the
Life Policies equal to 25 per cent. on the sums paid, and a bonus of
5 per 'cent. to the Shares, in addition to the payment of the annual
interest.
For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a specific sum,
without a prospective bonus, a new table at lower rates has been
calculated, on which, as well as on the participating scale, one-half
the premium may remain on interest at 5 per cent, for five years,
thus enabling a person to insure his life for 1,0001. on the immediate
payment of the premium for 5001. only.
The following are the annual Premiums for the Assurance of 1001.
for the whole Life, one-half of which may remain for five years by
merely paying the interest annually at five per cent. ; and should
the Policy become a claim in the interim, the amount due will then
be deducted.

For short periods the Premiums are considerably lower, and for
any ages or contingencies not usually advertised information may be
obtained on application to the Actuary or Secretary.
FIRE DAPARTMENT.
The Company insure houses, furniture, stock in trade, farming
stock, and every description of personal property, against loss or
damage by fire.
The Directors beg to remind their friends whose Premiums become
due at Lady-day, that no extra charge is made at this Office for the
transfer of Policies, and that they will be rated on terms peculiarly
favourable to parties insuring.
Insurances may be effected for any period of time ; if for seven
years, the Premium and Duty will only be charged for six.

SILVER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
and injurious Metals, called Nickel and German Silver, sup-
planted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE.
C. WATSON, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Folgate, aided by
a person of Science in the amalgamation of Metals, has succeeded in
bringing to Public Notice the most beautiful Article ever yet offered ;
possessing all the richness of Silver in appearance, with all its dura-
bility and hardness—with its perfect sweetness in use, undergoing, as
It does, a Chemical Precess, by which, all that is nauseous in mixed
Metals is entirely extracted—resisting all Acids—may be cleaned as
silver, and is manufactured into overy Article for the Table and
Sideboard:—

Fiddle. Threaded. Ring's.
Table Spoons and Forks, 16e. 6d. doz. 30s. 355.
Desert Ditto .. 12s. 6d. 258. 285.
Tea Speous.. •.. ss. 6d. —12 s. 6d. 13s. 6d.
Sugar Tongs
C. WATSON begs the Public will understand that this Metal Is
peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from Gold
than his metal is from all others—on its intrinsic merit alone he
wishes it to be tested, and from the daily increasing enlogiums he re-
ceives, he is convinced that nothing can prevent its becoming an
article of universal wear.

PATENT PARAGON CAMPHINB LAMPS.
The perfection of these Lamps over the Vesta has been
happily attained by the invention of twos parallel flat rings—a larger
and a smaller forming a cone round the margin of the wick, which
cause a rapid reverberation of air against the flame—thus condensing
every particle of volatilized vapour, it is free from smoke or smell,
having perfect combustion, and in full action, emits a light equal to
16 wax eandles.
C. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton
Foigate, will contain, throughout the season, all the most elegant
recherche and new patterns, comprising Or-molu, China, Glass, and
Opal.
Old Oil Lamps fitted with the Paragon Head for 21s. And the
Paragon Apparatus applied to the Vesta for 65. The Spirit analysed
and recommended by Dr. Ure, is delivered in screw cans by C.
Watson's carts, at 4s. per gallon.
