The object of this Society is to afford to the Assured all the
benefits of Life-Assurance, at a great reduction in the rates
of Premium.

FOR EXAMPLE.
A person aged 30, may with this Society assure his life for
500/. , by the annual payment of 11/. 3s. 4d., which in a Society
where the Bcnus is held out as a main inducement, would cost
him 13/. 7s. 4d., or, in other words, for the same annual pre-
mium he could at this Office assure very nearly 600/., whereby
he derives AN IMMEDIATE AND CERTAIN BONUS
OF 100/.
All particulars as to Shares, Loans, Assurances, &c. may le
obtained on application to the Secretary valid, if required,
forwarded to the country.
Parties in the country eligible for undertaking Agencies are
requested to apply.

RURAL FELICITY.—Of all breeds of cattle we
most admire the Alderney. They are slim, delicate, will-deer
looking creatures, that give an air to a cottage ; but they are
most capricious milkers. Of course you make your own butter;
that is to. say,`,,with the addition of a dozen purchased pounds
weekly, you are not very often out of that commodity. Then,
once or twice in a summer, they suddenly lose their temper, and
chase the governess and your daughters over the edge of a gravel-
pit. Nothing they like so much as the tender sprouts of cauli-
flower, nor do they abhor green peas. The garden-hedge is of
privet, a pretty fence, arid fast-growing, but not formidable to a
four-year-old. On going to eat a few gooseberries by sunrise, you
start a covey of cows, that in their alarm plunge into the hot-bed
with a smash, as if all the glass in the island had been broken ;
and rushing out at the gate at the critical instant little Tommy
is tottering in, they leave the heir-apparent, scarcely deserving
that name, half-hidden in this border. '1 here is no sale for such
outlandish animals in the home-market; and it is not Martin-
mas, co you must make a present of them to the President, or
five silver-cup-man of an agricultural society, and you receive
in return a sorry red round, desperately saltpetred at Christmas.
