BANKERS.
The Craven Banking Company, at Settle, Skipton, Burnley,
Clitheroe, Collie, and Keighley
It has long been considered strange. but such is the fact, that in
the large and important districts of North Lancashire and Craven,
which may be termed provinces, or almost counties, in themselves,
no public Fire and Life Assurance Company has yet been established.
although comprising property of every description of hazard to an al-
most incalculable amount.
It is therefore proposed to found a Society or Company, to be
called the NORTII LANCASHIRE and CRAVEN ASSUR UWE
COMPANY, under the provisions of the above Act, which will give
to the public all the benefits of a mutual Assurance Company, and
secure to the Shareholders a reasonable amount of profit.
The Company will be organised, and Its rules and regulations de-
fined, by a deed of settlement, to be made pursuant to the Art re-
ferred to, and proper measures will be taken for the purpose of re-
stricting the liability of each Shareholder to the amount of his or her
subscriptions respectively.
By the Act above referred to for the registration of Insurance Com-
panies, not more than ten shillings per cent. is allowed to be called
for until the full registration of the Company ; consequently a deposit
of two shillings per share only will be called for on the allotment.
Applications for Shares may be made to the Solicitors, or to Henry
Alcock, Esq., Solicitor, Skipton ;ffor to the following Brokers :—Mr.
John Gibbins, Settle; Mr. Thomas Boardman, Blackburn; Mr-
Thomas Wren, Preston ; Mr. Welch, Lancaster ; Messrs. Ridsdale,Hirst, and Ridsdale, and Messrs. Heath and Waugh, Manchester ;
Messrs. Ridsdale, Myers, and Bailey, and Mr. Richard Binney,
Leeds; Messrs. Ridsdale and Chauncy, Messrs. Fletcher and Sharp,
Liverpool ; Mr. J. W. Hamilton, 3, South Gallery, Auction Mart,
London ; and Mr. James Pringle, 79, Princes-street, Edinburgh ;
from whom Prospectuses and Forms. of Applications may also be had.
FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

Craven Fire and Life Assurance Company.
Gentlemen,—l request you to allot me Shares of 20/.
each in the above Company, and I hereby engage to accept the same

THE RISE and PROGRESS of the HYGEIAN
or MORISONIAN SYSTEM of MEDICINE.

Messrs. MORISON, of the British College of Health, New-roads
London, consider that there cannot be a stronger proof of the rise
and progress of the Morisonian System than the number of vege-
table purgative pills which we see daily advertised under different
names in the newspapers, all of which proceed upon that system.
The followirr, extract of a letter just received from Mr. William
Willis, of Winchcomb, Gloucestershire, Messrs. Morison's agent for
that place, shows at once the importance of the question at issue be-
tween Hygeists and Doctors :

" I must now say that I feel exceedingly happy in being able to
testify to the efficacy of the Universal Medicine ; it has done that in
Winchcomb which the diplomaed doctors, under the organic theory,
could not do ; it has fetched a man out of the union workhouse, and
sent him to provide for himself with his own hands. The disease
under which he was suffering was the Evil. Atter taking pills and
powders to the amount of 11. 10s. 13d., he was enabled to go forth and
seek his own livelihood. You may ask how did he get them? I
can tell you ; I never had anything for them. But for this I care
not ; my object in becoming your agent is, not that I may get gain,
but to establish a system which I believe to be founded in truth—
truth always did stand, and always will.
(Signed) " WILLIAM WILLIS, Hygeist,
" Aug. 19, 1845. but no Doctor."
Messrs. Morison deem it their duty to inform the public, that Sir
James Graham's Bill recognises, to its ffillest extent, the medical
liberty of the subject, and is quite against the principle of doctors
making a trade of their medical advice. On this ground, therefore,
Sir James deserves the support of all true llygeists.

A BATCH OF ONE POUND NOTES.—On Friday,
632!. was paid into the Bank in one pound notes by the trus.
tees to the will of James Satcherley, an old man (a beggar ),
who died in a cellar in Shadwell some weeks back. After his
decease the above notes, together with other moneys, were
found concealed, with a species of will, in a cupboard. The
notes must have been hoarded many years.
DEPLORABLE SUICIDE. While the Dundee
steamer was on its passage from that place to Edinburgh, on
Thursday last, a woman on board suddenly took off her bonnet
and shoes, and before anybody was aware of her intention
jumped overboard. The captain immediately stopped and put
about the steamer, but the unfortunate woman had sunk and
was seen ne more. The name "Margaret Miller" was in-
scribed on the inside of her shoes.—Edinburgh Evening Post.
NEW NOVEL, BY HORACE SMITH, ESQ.—We are
requested to state that Mr. Colburn, of Great Marlborough-
street, has this day published " Love and Mesmerism," by
Horace Smith, E'q., author of " Brambletye House, &c., m
3 vols., post hvo., which car, new be had at the Libraries. Mr.
Colburn has also just published the following popular new
works of fiction :-2. The Story of a Royal Favourite, by
Mrs. Gore. 3. Count Konigamark, by Captain Frederick
Chamier, R.N. 4. 'the White Slave and the Russian Prince,
by the author of " Revelations of Russia." 5. A second edi-
tion of Self; or, The World as it Goes, by the author of
" Cecil." 6. Maids of Honour; a Tale of the Court of
George I. 7. De Rohan ' • or, The Court Conspirator, by M.
Eugene Sue, author of "The Mysteries of Paris," &c.
THE ROYAL VICTORIA THEATRE.—We perceive
that Mr._ C. Lawrence (late of the English Opera) will take a
benefit at the above theatre this evening. The bill of fare
is of a very attractive character. There cannot be a doubt but
that Mr. Lawrence will have a bumper, and he deserves it.
