SIONARY INTEREST COMPANY.
11, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, London.
This Office unites the benefit of a mutual asbooiation with the
security of a Proprietary Company, and offers to the Assured
amongst others the following advantages:-
1. Credit until death, with privilege of payment at any time
previously, for one half of the premiums for the first five years
upon Assurances for the whole of life ; a plan peculiarly advan-
tageous for securing Loans.

. Sums may be assured to become payable at given ages.
3. Policies not forfeited immediately, if the Premium re.
main overdue, and fraud alone, not error, vitiates them.
4. Officers in the Army and Navy, and other persons re.
siding abroad, assured upon equitable terms.
5. Immediate, Survivorship, and deferred Annuities.
All the rates will be found to have been made upon the lowest
possible computation consistent with security.
JOSEPH BERRIDGE, Secretary.

UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
8, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, London.
Established by Act of Parliament in 1834.
DIVISION OF PROFITS AMONG THE ASSURED.
This Joint Stock Company, established by Act of Parlia-
ment, without limited responsibility, affords the most perfect
security in an ample paid-up Capital, and in the great success
which has attended it, since its commencement in 1834.
In 1F.41, the Company declared an aldition to the Share-
tockholders of one-half of their Stock, and also added 2i. per
Cent. per Annum, from the dates of their policies to those par-
ties who had insured with Profits.
The Premiums nevertheless are on the most moderate scale,
and only a moiety need be paid for the first five years, where the
Insurance is for life.
The amount of bonus added to policies since the commence-
ment of the Society in March 1834, to the 31st'December
1840, is as follows:---
Sum Assui ed. Time Assured. Sums added to Policy.
£l,OOO 6 Years 10 Months £136 13 4
1,000 4 Years BO 0 0
1,000 1 Year

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 an interval of five bears, and persons entering be •
fore the Ist of August next will enjoy one year's additional
rating, and rank at next division of profits for five complete
years.
Forms of proposals may be had at 'the Offices, 449,1 West
Strand, and 78,
