LIFE DEPARTMENT.

The additions made to Life Policies granted by this Corpo-
ration for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per cent. on
the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent on the sums as-
sured—a result, it is believed, far more favourable to the as-
sured than any other Company has hitherto accomplished, when
the low rates of premiums charged by this Corporation are
taken into consideration.
The next division of life profits will take place in December,
1846, being as interval of five years, and persons entering be •
fore the Ist of August next will enjoy one year's add►tional
rating, and rank at next division of profits for five complete
years.

ATTEMPT on the QUEEN'S LIFE.

Major Ogilvy of the 2d Life Guards, who obtained brevet
rank in consequence of being the officer on duty at the Horse
Guards on the day of the birth of the infant heir apparent to
the throne, the young Prince of Wales, and Sub-Lieutenant
Lucas, were the officers who rode close to the side of her Ma-
jesty's carriage yesterday, when she proceeded from Bucking-
ham Palace to St. James's, to hold her last levee for the sea-
son, which was thronged with the nobility and gentry anxious
to pay their respects to the Sovereign. The military escort
consisted of the usual number of soldiers, who dismounted at
the garden gate until the levee was over. Prince Albert, who
wore the uniform of his regiment the Scots' Fusileee Guards.,
looked rather thoughtful ; the Queen, who was greeted in the
most enthusiastic manner by the multitude assembled in the
Park, looked remarkably well, and acknowledged the congra-
tulations of her people by repeatedly bowing. Her Majesty,
notwithstanding the tat igue of the levee and receiving Addresses
from both Houses of Parliament. gave a sumptuous banquet in
the evening to a party of forty noble and illustrious personages,
and appeared in her usual health and spirits. Mr. Maule, the
Solicitor to the Treasury, and his assistant, Mr. Bouchior, will
have the conduct of the prosecution against Francis, and will
assist the Attorney and Solicitor-Generals. It was stated at
the Palace last evening, by the attaches of the Court and other
persons connected with the household, that, in the event of the
prisoner's conviction, of which there is little do-ibt, his
ment will be severe, in the event of his life being spared

Milled by Sir Peter Laurie to the Comptroller of the House-
hold, as to the attempted treason on Sunday, on thefollowing day
an equerry, was directed to ride on each side of the ' carriage, SW

perhaps. to deter him from firing at all. Her Majesty was ac-
companied by two equerries in her ride on Tuesday.

The Duke of Cleveland is going to erect a splendid
mansion at the lower end of Grosvenor-place. It will com-
mand a fine view of Buckingham Gardens. The Dowager
Duchess retains the house in St. James's-square. The Earl of
Wilton, the Marquis of Westminster's second son, is going to
build a house, to be called Wilton-house, where the Luck
Hospital now stands. The new hospital now erecting, adjo.io-
ing the canal on the Harrow-road, will be ready to admit the
patients in a few months. Lord Wilton inherits Wilton Castle,
and large estates in Herefordshire, from his grandfather, the
late Earl. The Marquis of Waterford has bought one of the
large houses on the south side of Eaton-square, preparatory
to the Noble Marquis's marriage.

STAMMERING CURED wmiouT SUR-

Grafton-street, Bond-street, May 27, 1842.
I have great pleasure in stating that a young gentleman I have
longjknown as one of the very worst stammerers, has just been
brought to me entirely cured by Mr. Hunt's process. A diffi-
cult title to a book, in which several German words occurred,
he read off correctly and well, and instead of prolonged hesita-
tion and most painful contortions of countenance whenever he
attempted to talk, he conversed with perfect ease and accuracy
of pronunciation. A very few weeks have sufficed for the
cure. SAMUEL ASHWELL, M.D.

stances, waited on Mr. Stewart, of Ironmonger-lane, the Soli-
citor, and offered to dispose of the Stock to the Public in six

immediately,
Brooks and Co. contrary to the first intention, have deter-
mined to dispose of it to private families, in parcels of five to
twenty pounds worth, at an unheard-of reduction.

NEW WORK BY THE AUTHOR OF ELPHiNSTONE.

Now ready, in 3 vols., post Bvo.,
T" E HER BE
By the Author of " Elphinstone."
This is a work which must take its place in the f,remost
ranks. A tone of powerful satire— a nice discrimination of cha-
racter—the talent of closing periods with the point of an epi-
gram—a spirited piece of description—a sarcastic power of com-
paring men's outward actions with their inward motives—in
fact, the higher attributes which mark the satirist, all conspire
to render this a work of infinite instruction and amusement."—

TVICKEI, INK ; or JOHNSTONE'S PER-
MANENT WRITING FLUID, under the patronage
of the Academy of Sciences, Paris.

W. PEACOCK (by appointment) sole Agent for the above
incomparable Fluid, respectfully invites the attention of the
commercial public, and' the literary and fashionable circles,
to some of the paramount properties of the Nickel Ink. It

stands unrivalled for its cleat:nes; and facility in writing, being
free from that gelatinous deposit which clogs and corrodes
the metallic pen. As a preventive of fraud in banking and
other commercial transactions, it p►eseuts an important gua-
rantee, as it is indestructible (without injuring the surface of
the paper) by any of the chemical agents which destroy the
common inks. The colour of the Nickel Ink is a Scheeles
green, but it dries a vivid and permanent black—a striking con-
trast to the rusty black of other inks and writing fluids.

THE Si:lN.—The increased quickening powers of
the sun during Spring, by giving an additional stimulus to the
circulation of the fluids, is frequently the cause of throwing to
the surface of the body the impurities of the blood ; to this
fact may be attributed the numerous cutaneous visitations
which occur at this period of the year, and which medicine in-
ternally taken is frequently unable to banish. The extraordi-
nary celebrity which Rowland's Kalydor, as a purely vegetable
production, has long claimed to itself, as a thorough extirpator
of Impurities from the Skin, is during the period of Spring
most pleasingly evinced ; it never fails of thoroughly cleansing
the skin, and is remarkable for inducing a fairness in the com-
plexion previously unknown
