The principle of this Company is to allow to each Assurer
such reasonable advantages, as may suit Lis particular views.
Thus, parties Assuring the Lives of others, may make their
Policies secure, notwithstanding the Life Assured may go out
of the limits of Europe, without the necessary permission of the
Directors having been previously obtained. Credit of half the
Premiums for the first five years, allowed on Policies effected
for the whole term of Life. Parties who have been Assured
for five years will be allowed to borrow on the security of their
Policies, a sum equal to one-half the Premiums paid, less that
for the first year. Advances are made to parties Assured in
the Office, on real or undoubted Persot.al Security, for terms
net exceeding tht ee years, repayable by instalments. Premiums
moderate. Participation in profits. Detailed Prospectuses
may be obtained on application at the Office, or by letter

a Resolution passed at the General Meeting of this Society,
held at Norwich on the 28th day of January of the present
year, when it was referred to the Board of Directors " To
have the requisite calculations made with the least practicable
delay, for the purpose of assigning a Bonus upon Pollen s in

time such Bonus might be declared," a GENERAL MEET-
ING of the Members of this Society is convened to be held at
the Society's office in Surrey.street, Norwich, on FRIDAY, the
9th of September next, at Twelve, o'clock at Noon, at which
meeting the Balance Sheet of the Society's affairs at the 30th

SILVER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive

supplanted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE. C. WATSON (!ate ALDERM AN)
41 and 42, Barbican, aided by a person of science in the arnal-
gation' of metals, has succeeded in bringing to public notice the
most beautiful article ever yet offered : possessing all the rich-
ness of Silver in appearance—with its durability and hardness
—with its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a
chemical process, by which all that is nauseous in mixedmetals is
entirely extracted—resist ng a'.l acids, may be cleaned as Silver,
and is manufactured into every article for the Table and Side-
board.

Gold, than his metal is from all others ; the Public will there-
fore have no difficulty in discovering the animus which directs
the virulent attacks made against him, by a party who is daily
suffering from the unparalleled success which has marked the
progress of alas New Plate since its introduction. C. W.,

world at the under-mentioned charges, warranted equal in
every respect, as regards quality, style, and fashion, to any
emanating from the most fashionable houses at the West-end,
where those who pay prompt are obliged to suffer for persons
who take unlimited credit. The Proprietor havir", six very
extensive establishments, advantageously situated in the principal
manufacturing towns in the kingdom, and having capital at com-
mand, he is enabled to take every advantage of the fluctuations
•f the markets, independently of which he is a manufacturer of a
great part of his stock. His enormous consumption enables him
to buy immense quantities of goods of very first-rate quality for
cash, considerably below their real value; and as he pursues but
one system in selling, charging a uniform per centage, the lowest
ever offered to the public : the result is that those who honour
him with their confidence and commands will receive the full
benefit of his capital and experience. An immense quantity of
goods always on hand, suitable for immediate use, mule in first-
rate style and fashion, and at really astonishing prices. The
Proprietor particularly invites attention to his immense stock
of waistcoats, the newest, and richest designs are always kept
on hand, ready made, splendidly cut, and manufactured in the
best possible manner : and he can say, without exception,
that he is the largest maker in the kingdom, 1,000 Waistcoats
being manufactured daily for his various Establishments.

STARCH.—BROWN and POLSON beg to in-
vite the attention of laundresses and the public to their
PATENT POWDER STARCH, unequalled for strength,
colour, and purity. It gives a fine and glossy finish, does not
stick to the iron, and requires no boiling. The annexed certi-
ficate of that eminent chemist, Dr. Fyfe, will prove that it is
free of potatoe, and contains no deleterious ingredient.
" I hereby certify that I have submitted to chemical investi-
gation the starch manufactured by Messrs. Brown and Poison,
of Paisley, and that I have found it to be a pure article, conse-
quently free from any ingredient that would act injuriously
even on the finest fabric. From trials conducted with it under
my own superintendence, I have found that in starching it
goes farther than the best kinds of patent starch, that it gives
an equally fine finish, and that articles starched with it are not
iable to lose their stiffness. Having witnessed the process of
manufacturing the starch in all its stages, I am satisfied that
potatoe flour is not used in its manufacture. _

THE PERFECT SUBSTITUTE for SILVER'
CATALOGUE, with ENGRAVINGS (Gratis),
POSTAGE FREE.—The celebrity •of the rich and silvery
appearance and extreme durability of the material made ex-
clusively by ourselves, has induced many attempts to foist
upon the public the notoriously deleterious German Silver
under the guises of " Albata Plate," " Berlin Silver," &c.
&c., against which we especially, warn them. Aided by an
eminent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our matrial
so that acids do not affect it ; it is now so well known and
appreciated that it is universally superseding silver in all its
uses. The genuine metal, which is more durable than silver,
can only be had at our warehouses. It is the same through-
out, and can be engraved and made in all the various articles
that are in silver, from whicb it can only he told by reference

OPINION OF A GERMAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ON
THE DEMAND FOR A HIGHER PROTECTING DUTY

ON COTTON TWIST.

When the question with which we are now occu-
pied first was started, about ten years since, our spin-
ning. factories were so unimportant, that according to
official returns their production did not exceed
3,000,0001 b. to 4,000,0001 b. The quantity of cotton
now spun within the states of the Zollverem, without
Saxony, is about 7,500,0001 b. annually. The spinn in g-
mills have consequently doubled since then. At that
time the complaint now made was also brought for-
ward by the spinners. Their demands occasioned an
investigation and mature deliberation, the result of
which was a decision that no increase of the duty on
twist in favour of the spinner could be admitted.
Amongst others the following question was then
started :—" Can the spinning factories flourish, and
will they increase, under the existing duties ?"
The answer of the Commission was—" No. The
spinning factories cannot flourish under the existing
duties, and no addition to their numbers is practicable,
as experience has shown."
The duty was not then raised, and if this prophecy
had been a true one, all the spinners must have been
ruined in the eight years which have elapsed in the
interval. But instead of this we find they have
doubled in number, and we find that they actually
increased in the very period in which (1835 to 1836)
all prospect of greater protection was debarred
—further, that this increase was made by old and ex-
perienced' members of the trade at a great outlay of
capital, and that by many who had themselves signed
the representation mentioned above. 'MI these con-
tradictions are reconciled, if we take into considera-
tion the crisis that took place in the cotton manu-
facture of Great Britain, owing to the difference that
obtained between the price of raw cotton and of tha
yarn spun from the same. In October, 1831, the
price of d.

refusing to deliver up the body of one William Foster
to his executors for burial.
It appeared that the defendant was keeper of the
gaol of the Lord of the Manor of Wakefield, and that
one William Foster had been committed to his cus-
tody fur debt, who died in the prison in September
last, having appointed a Mr. Wm. Sutcliffe and a Mr.
Appleyard his executors. The deceased had been at
one time in very good circumstances, but had con-
trived to squander all he had, and at subsequent
periods had been supplied by his friends, from time to
time, with money to the amount of sevefal thousand
pounds, till at length wearied out with fruitless endea-
voUrs to benefit him they left him to his own resources,
and he speedily became an inmate of the defendant's
prison. While there some of his friends sent him two
guineas, the whole of which he squandered on the
very day on which he received them, and from that
tin.e they left him to himself. He then became in-
debted to the defendant and died in his debt. The exe-
cutors, hearing of his demise, went and demanded the
body, on which the defendant demanded the amount due
to him, which the executors declined to pay, and he
alleging that as his reason, declined to deliver the
body to them— He kept it. till October,--and then
buried it in the prison yard. The body was washed
and dressed decently, in the usual way, and except
that the burial was in unconsecrated ground, and the
funeral without the services of the Church, every
thing was done with proper decorum. Application
.vas made for a mandamus to compel the defendant
to deliver up the body, and under this compulsory
process it was exhumed and placed in a coffin pro-
vided by the executors, and afterwards properly in-
terred. The grave in which it was at first deposited
was very shallow, and seemed to have been designed
only as a temporary depository for the deceased.
The facts of the case not being controverted, the
Learned Judge gave it as his opinion that an indict-
able offence had been committed, but as no evil was
intended, and the defendant thought he was acting- in
a manner warranted by the law, it was more in the
nature of a mistake than an intentional offence, and

not to be visited with severe punishment.
A verdict of Guilty was then submitted to, and the
defendant was allowed to go at large on entering into
his own recognisances in the sum of 101. to appear
and receive judgment when called upon.
Joseph Garner, George Garthwaite, Joseph New-
some, Joseph Tyas, Henry TunnycliffeFrancis Hague,
and James Seeker, were indicted for a riot and assault
at the parish of Kirkheaton on the 15th of June last.
Sy G. Lewin and Mr. Wilkins conducted the pro-
secution, and Mr. Bliss and Mr. Pashley the defence.
The prisoners are weavers of fancy cloth, and were
.._ _ _

in the employment of Mr. Jacob Wood, proprietor of
a large manufacturing esta'Aishment at Kirkheaton.
A turn-out for higher wages had taken place some
time before this occurrence, and considerable
had been displayed by the turn-outs against the
" black sheep,' as they were called, who continued at
work. Among them were two parties, named Jessop
and Holroyd, who lived in the neighbourhood of Mr.
Wood's mill. According to the evidence for the pro-
secution a mob of about 200 persons, about nine
o'clock in the evening of the 15th of June, cam© to-
wards the house of Jessop, carrying two effigies, in-
tended to represent Jessop and Holroyd. There was
a great noise and tumult, accompanied with cries of
"Down with the black sheep." On arriving opposite
Jessop's house, they set the effigies on fire, and one
of them, while burning, was thrown on the roof of
his coal cellar. Some of the parties got on the roof
of the house itself, which was easily accessible from
the road. Jessop's wife was sent out to expostulate
with them, but she was insulted, and pushed back
into the doorway with such violence as to fall heavily
on the floor. Jessop then went out to endeavour to
get the burning effigy removed, but he also was
thrust back with violence into the house, and the
flaming mass thrown after him. It very nearly set
fire to the work in his loom, and had the door opened
the other way the result would probably have been
serious. A number of stones were thrown, but no
serious mischief was done by them, and the crowd,
after keeping up the tumult a considerable time, dis-
persed.

Garner and Garthwaite were identified as the
bearers of the effigies, and all the other parties were
sworn to as having been actively engaged in thecrowd.
For the defence a mass of evidence IN as adduced to
show that none of these parties took any share in the
disturbance. Some it was alleged were entirely away,
and some it was admitted were near, but merely
looked on.

The Jury found all the prisoners Not Guilty of a
riot, but Guilty of a common assault.
Several objections were taken to the indictment in
arrest of judgment, which were finally waived, and
the prosecutor consented that all the prisoners, except
Garner and Garthwaite, should be discharged on
their own recognisances, and these two were sentenced
to be imprisoned for one calendar month.
The reA•ular business of the Assizes terminated in
both Courts this evening, and it is expected that the
trial of the rioters from the disturbed districts will
commence to••morrow.

Difference
This shows the great fluctuations in favour of or
against the spinner which take place. All the
charges which have affected the German spinning
factories within the last eightirears, from the com-
plaint of the impossibility of their continuance to the
silent confession of their prosperous condition, in the
establishment and enlargement of expensive establish-
ments, may be traced to this cause, which cannot he
removed unless all influence on the part of British in-
dustry is totally excluded from Germany.
But how is this practicable in the relation in which
the spinning factories at present stand to the other fac-
tories within the Zollverein ? A slight augmentation of
the import duty would not suffice to produce this ef-
fect ; for the differences which we have pointed out are
too considerable to admit of it. On the other hand, an
increase of the duty sufficient to destroy, the influence
of British industry for a continuance would evidently
injure most seriously the other branches of the manufac-
ture, which would inevitably be gradually destroyed,
unless the sale of foreign twist and yarn when manu-
factured were facilitated by a drawback, and the inland
consumption of the home-spun material were pro-
tected by a corresponding increase of the duty on
cloths. Such a measure would, therefore, be far
from adding to the national prosperity, and in our
opinion nothing warrants the dangerous experiment
of risking what is already established, and which has
been found in a long course of years to be condu-
cive to that prosperity, in order to achieve a gain of
less importance, which moreover can have no ex-
istence if that which is thus established be destroyed.
It appears, moreover, to be beyond all doubt that
the other branches of the cotton manufacture are
much more adapted to increase the national prosperity
than spinning. According to the English export
lists for 1841, Germany, Belgium, and Hol-
land imported in that year 63,868,3001 b. of twist.t If
we assume that the Low Countries, Switzerland, and
part of Austria took 10,000,0001 b, from this quantity,
there remained about 54,000,0001 b. for the States of
the Zollverein. We estimate the present production
of yarn within the Zollverein at 15,000,00016.
some, indeed, rate it at 20,000,000 lb.; but this we
consider too much. In the statement made by M.
Putter, at Frankfort-on-the-Maine, on the 4th of
September, 1841, the number of spindles within the
Zollverein is estimated at 719,000. Assuming this
estimate to be correct, if it be considered that a number
of these belong to old machines, and that only those of
a better description, and which are constantly worked,
can produce 251 b. per spindle, our estimate will not
be found to deviate much from the truth. Accord-
ing to this, the total consumption of twist within the
Zollverein amounts, at present, to about 70,000,0001 b.
Now, in order to see the relation that spinning
bears to the other branches of the manufacture in the
Zollverein, let us assume that these States spin their
whole amount of consumption themselves, and we ob-
tain the following results :—The spinning of this
quantity would employ 62,130 hands, whose wages
would amount to $3,948,708 ; the other branches of
the manufacture would require 311,532 hands, whose
wages would amount to $33,218,556. The spinners,
therefore, are in proportion to the other manufac-
turers as 1 to 5, while their wages stand in the pro-
portion of 1 to 8 2-5. The variation in the latter
value arises from the circumstance that in the spinning
factories mostly children are employed at very low
wages, while the other branches of the manufacture
mostly heads of families;
require grown-up people
who require and ie2eive a 'higher remuneration.
If we return to tke actual, condition of the trade,
where 15,000,0001 b. of yarn are produced by 13,313
workmen, whose annual wages amount to 864,154
dollars, we find a proportion of but 4 to 39 1-3. These
figures are more eloquent than all the observations
which we might add upon the subject.

Society, and an investigation ought to be instituted
by the Committee in reference to the circular report

do so as soon as possible, and to make known the re-

PO LICE INTELLIGENCE.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

John Whitcomb, servant to Mr. Gore, the extensive
dust and water contractor, was yesterday charged by
Smith, one of the constables employed by the Society
for the prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with ill-
treating a horse, which was so lame it could scarcely
walk.

Smith's statement was to the effect that he saw the
defendant driving in a water cart a lame horse, which
had its off fore foot tied up ; the whip being too long
to touch the poor animal with the lash, the prisoner
had taken the butt-end and beaten the poor beast most
unmercifully. He was riding at the time.
Mr. MALTBY—This is about the thirtieth complaint
we have had against Mr. Gore's men for similar
offences ; I wish I could get him or his foreman be-
fore me, for I do not like fining these poor men, who
are merely servants. (To the defendant)—Will Mr.
Gore pay the fine ?
Defendant. —He will not; he sends us out with
horses not fit to drive, and I must take the conse-
quence. I deny, however, beating the horse with the
butt-end of the whip.
Mr. MALTBY—That is distictly sworn to, and I
fine you 10s., or in default of payment seven days'
imprisonment, and I very much regret that the law
does not allow me to punish your employer instead
of you.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
QTR,—Having seen the indiscriminate attacks
1._.7 which have been made on all Patent Medicines, by a
very ab'e writer, in a weekly paper, without allowing that
several have been of great service to the public—such as Dr.
James's Powders, &c., which is frequently prescribed by the
first physicians in the country, and as I, as agent for the sale
of the LONDON RESTORATIVE am thereby classed with
those pretender=, who can show no medical guarantee for the
safety of the public, nor the genuiness of their medicine. I
beg leave, therefore, respectfully to inform you, that the cnm•
position of the London Restorative is from the Recipe of Dr.
Thomas Buchanan, of Hull, Graduate, member of several
learned societies, author of several surgical works, papers. &c.,
and whose publications are quoted by the most celebrated pro-
fessional writers of the day.
It was owing to the repeated failures of the best medical
practitioners in Britain, in the treatment of several diseases,
that led to the discovery of the medicine sold by me as the
London Restorative. Owing to the great expellee incurred by
experiments &c., during upwards of twenty years, Dr. Bucha-
nan consulted a physician of the first talent in London, mi the
subject, who advised him—" To dispose of the Medicine in
this form, until his expenses were reimbursed, and then to
throw it open to the profession."
From the acknowledged talent and genius of Dr. Buchanan,
who, by his publications and practice, placed acoustic surgery
in the high station it row holds in Britain, the public may
safely rely on the properties of any recipe of that very able
practitioner—l remain, Sir, yours most respectfully,
WM. BRUCE.
