who retire by rotation, be re-elected members of the Com-
mittee.

-----
That Mr. John Cropper, Major Axford, Mr. Harwood
Banner, be elected members of the Committee.

The Trustees observe with great regret that the permanent
income of this Institution is found inadequate to maintain
the beneficent objects of the Charity, the expenditure of the
last year having exceeded the income by the sum of £l6OO,
without any material increase to the regular annual expendi-
ture. The Trustees hope that the public will come forward
liberally and offer their Donations and Subscriptions to rescue
so noble a Charity from its pecuniary difficulties, and enable
it to continue its extensive usefulness.
EDWARD GIBBON, Chairman.
The Chairman having left the chair,
Resolved unanimously,
That the thanks of this meeting be presented to him for
his conduct in the chair, and for his continued exertions in
behalf of this institution during the past year.

SUPERIOR FACILITIES afforded by the UNITED
KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8,
Waterloo Place, Pall Mall, and 2, Charlotte Row, Mansion
House, London.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords
the most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only
requires, when the insurance is for the whole period of life,
one-half of the very moderate premiums to be paid for the
first five years after the date of the policy : the other half
may remain, subject to the payment of interest at :5 per cent.
annually;fo be deducted at death, 6r may be previously paid
off at convenience.

It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate
income_to secure, by this atrangMeUt,.. 4 lot his
family ; and sitatild he ret;sen*time,, g the insur-
ance, succeed to, or acquire a fortune, he may relinquish his
policy, having only paid one-half the premiums for the first
five years, instead of the whole, as in all other ChtnpaniOs.
Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of
£2B 16s. 3d. for the first five years, and afterwards the full
premium, £57 Its. 6d. yearly, secure to his widow and chil-
dren, at his death, payment of no less than £3OOO, subject
only to the deduction of £144 Is. 3d., being the amount of
premium unpaid.
This Company holds out, in various other respects, great
inducements to the public. When such facilities are afford-
ed, it is clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not pos-
sessed of a fortune, but of an income, however moderate, to
insure his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable pro-
vision for his family.

TO MERCHANTS, BANKERS, AND MANUFAC-
TURERS.'
VOORSANGER'S newly-invented Metallic embossed
PENS possess the flexibility of the quill, with the pre-
servation of elasticity to a much greater degree, than any
others hitherto offered to the public. They are so remarkable
for producing beauty and clearness in writing, as to render
them distinguished in numerous public offices, which is the
greatest testimony of their excellence.

Voorsanger, warranted," may be had of LACE and ADDI-
SON, Standard-office ; Mr. Torun, Lord-street ; Mr.
JONES, Castle-street ; and most other Stationers in Liverpool.
