Low Rates of Premium.

In addition to the subscribed Capital of £300,000, the As-
sured have the security of the Company's income of upwards
of £50,000 per annum, yearly increasing, and an accumulating
Assurance Fund invested in Government and other available
securities, of considerably larger amount than the estimated
liabilities of the Company.
The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale com-
patible with the security of the Assured, and the stability of
the Company, thereby, in effect, giving to every Policy Holder
an immediate and certain Bonus without risk, in lieu of the
deferred and frequently delusive prospect of a periodical division
of Profits.

—that had starved the people. He rejoiced
I Peel had added the Income-tax to the other ha rdens of
the country. It would rouse the people to a son eof the
oppressive conduct of the present Government. And
when the people firmly and with the voice as it: were of
one man demanded the redress of their grievances, de-
manded the repeal of the Corn-lawc, that repeal
would be granted, and the sister monopoly of
the sugar duties would be removed. Then too,
the Income-tax would be put an end to. The
middle classes had been hitherto attached to parties—to
Whigs and Tories, instead of attending to thefr uw, n in-
terests, and hence the strength of their oppressors, The
middle classes had never been united enough—above .1111,
they never had sympathy enough with the poor 'r
classes. They did not stretch out the hand of safety
their suffering countrymen till the waves of oppressions
approached themselves. The hand-loom weavers were•
the first agitators against the Corn-laws, but they were
not supported by the members, of the community whose
assistance would have been meStvaluable—by ;he middle
classes—who let the question slumber from 1815, when
the question was first raised by the hand-loom weavers,
until the distress resulting from those restrictive laws
began to affect themselves.
Mr. EDWARDS, of Lambeth, concurred in the pro-
priety of embarrassing the Government by every means,
till the wants of the people were attended to and remedied.
Mr. SIDNEY SMITH announced that the members of
the deputation who had waited on the Cabinet Ministers
n Monday, would report the result to-day.
The meeting was then adjourned till to-day.

OPENING of the BRIGHTON RAIL-
WAY STEAM-PACKET W H A RF.
BRIGHTON, JULY 26, 1842.—Yesterday a party of
about fifty gentlemen, invited by Mr. Dean, one of the
Superintendents of the London and Brighton Railway,
went on board the General Steam Navigation Company's
packet Dart, after she had landed her passengers from
Dieppe, at the Chain Pier ; and proceeded to Shoreham
Harbour, to celebrate the opening of the new Steam-
packet Wharf, erected by the Railway Company at their
terminus at Kingston. The vessel entered the western
arm of the Harbour, instead of the eastern as hitherto,
and moored alongside of the General Steam Navigation.
Company's vessel the Lord Melville, which had arrived
yesterday to start to-day on her first voyage to Havre.
The gentlemen, after inspecting the excellent accom-
modation of the latter vessel, which has been newly
' fitted up expressly for this station, went on shore to
examine the arrangementaat the new 'Wharf, which is
constructed in the most substantial and efficient manner,
and there is the same depth of water alongside of the
, Wharf as on the bar.

A place is fitted up for the examination of passengers'
luggage on the spot, so that within the shortest possible
space of time after the arrival of the packets, passengers
will'proeted by a special train, which will be sent on the
packet's arrival to convey them to the Brighton station ;
and those who proceed to London may do so by the first
train after the packet's arrival ; and passengers from
London may place themselves in the Railway Train at
London-bridge, and in less than three hours after em-
bark at the Wharf in smooth water. The improvements
in the Harbour, and the accommodation afforded by the
Railway, offer advantages which only require to be
known to be appreciated.
After inspecting the improvements, the gentlemen sat
down to an excellent cold collation, laid out under an
awning on board the Dart, Mr. Deane in .the
supported by Mr. Catt, Mr. Folkard, and other influen-
tial gentlemen, who drank success to the new under-
taking, and the new station, besides many other toasts.
