NICOLL'S REGISTERED PALETOT, 6 and
7 Viet., cap. 65, made of llama cloth, is light, dark, and mixed
colours, Two Guineas, patronised by his Royal Highness Prince
Albert, is, from the neatness of its form, adapted for the two pur-
poses—as an over coat, light in weight, a desirable advantage in our
ever-variable climate ; also as a surtout, or summer frock coat, with-
out other—a perfect luxury, where heat is found oppressive. 'Un-
assumed plainness, the characteristic of a gentleman's attire, is fully
sustained in the Paletot, being in its fashion neither trop prononce
or trop neglige.

the profits of a good Judgment and well-directed ingenuity to those to
whom it is due."—See the " Times" of 4th April.
" In the Registered Paletot there is a gentlemanly neatness and an
absence of all unsightly vulgarity. It has met with the highest ap-
probation in the Court circle."—See" Morning Post" of the 19th April.

UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
TEMPORARY OFFICES DURING THE ALTERATIONS,
No, 28, REGENT-STREET, WATERLOO-PLACE, LONDON.
Established by Act of Parliament in 1534.
DIVISION OF PROFITS AMONG THE ASSURED.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most
perfect security in a large paid-up Capital, and in the great success
which has attended it since its commencement in 1834, its ANNUAL
INCOME being UPWARDS of 72,0001.
In 1841 the Company declared an addition to the Shareholders of
one-half of their Stock, and also added a Bonus of 21. per cent. per
annum, on the Sum Insured to all Policies of the Participating Class
from the time they were effected.
The Bonus added to Policies from March, 1534, to December 31,
1840, is as follows :
Sum Time Sum added Sum Time Sum Added
Assured. Assured. to Policy. Assured. Assured. to Policy.
£5OOO 6 yrs. 10 mths. £683 6 8 £5OOO 4 years £4OO
5000 6 years 600 0 0 5000 2 years 200
The Premiums, nevertheless, are on the most moderate scale, and
only one halfneed be paid for the first Five Years, where the Insu-
rance is for Life.
Every information will be afforded on application to the Resident
Directors, Edward Boyd, Esq., and E. Lennox Boyd, Esq., of No. 28,
Regent-street, Waterloo-place, London.

The DIRECTORS hereby give notice to Members whose Premiums
fall due on the sth of July next, that the same must be paid within
thirty days from that date.

The Premiums are payable yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly, on the
sth of January, sth of April, sth of July, and sth of October, either
of which several days constitutes the commencement of the year to
Members. Persons, therefore, desirous of entering the Society, us
Members, on the sth of July next, should appear, or lodge their pro-
posals, at the Office, on or before that day.
So various are the plans now before the public for the Assurance of
Life, that it may seem difficult to make choice between them. As,
however, all prudent offices make a considerably higher charge in the
annual premium than experience has hitherto shown to be necessary,
but differ in the mode of disposing of the surplus or profit, the fol-
lowing classification may be made

I st.- Proprietary Offices, whe:e all the surplus from premiums and
other profits is divided, exclusively, amongst the Share or Stockholders.
2d. Offices where the same is divided in various proportions be-
tween Share and Stockholders and the Assured.
3d. Offices of a strictly mutual character, where the whole of the
profit is equitably distributed amongst the Assured only.
The METROPOLITAN, which is of the last class, was established
in 1835, and although ne paid agents for town or country have at any
time been employed, nor any expensive system of advertising
resorted to, yet its advantages have been so well appreciated by the
public, that the annual premiums already exceed 56,0001.
In consequence of the prosperous state of the Society's affairs, the
Annual Premiums of Members of Five Years' standing have been re-
duced Forty-two and a-Half per cent.
A plan of the Society, with Tables of Rates, may be obtained, on
application, at the Office.

PATENT PARAGON CAMPIIINE LAMPS. The perfection e these Lamps over the Vesta has been
happily attained by the invention of two parallel flat rings—a larger
and a smaller forming a cone rotuid 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,
baying perfect combustion, and in full action, emits a light equal to
16 wax candles.

CAUTION TO CONSUMERS. DRY GAS METERS.
fIEFRIES'S DRY METERS have successfully
stood the testo six years' trial. Among the 10,000 in use,
they have been adopted by the official authorities of the Houses of
Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office,
Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other
Clab-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many
other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of
gas have passed through some of these meters without regula-
tion or repair, and which are still working to the entire satisfaction
of the gas company and consumers.
All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are invited
to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from
the use of Defries's Dry Meter, but, to prevent the substitution of im-
perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry
Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his
meters.

Testimonials from the most eminent and scientific men and large
consumers can be had on application (or will be forwarded by pest).
