It is not alone to the industrious classes this plan, of Deferred
Annuities will be found efficient, in securing an ample compe-

tency for old age; but also to that impuitant class of the com-
munity who derive their income from a combination of capital
and personal labour. To this class, the Savings' Banks dp not
afford a sufficiently profitable investment.; and, indeed, the
framework of such institutions as have been designed for the
more humble classes, has not been made, to suit their wants or
consult their interests, and there exists no institution, at pre-
sent, to which they can resort, that. would at the same time fos-
ter their industry,—secure to them a competency in old age—
and protect them against the varied casualties of life.
The Tables of Deferred Annuities have been constructed with
a view to exhibit the benefits that may be secured by the small-
est effort of frugality, and to suit the eircUinstances conve7;
nience of all classes.

The object of -Tables No. 1 is to show the option of benefits
the payment of Is. per week, or £2 12s. per epnum, will secure
at the,period of attaining the age of 5O 50, 60, or 65.
The Tables No. 11. show the Annual Premiums required to
secure the option of given benetitsitithw: ages,—the sum re-
quired at each age to be,paid down a't telp,r to purchase them,—
itud:also the sum,at any.age to be Npcl: as disparity, so as to
enable the
,purcbaser instead of payingAe premium at his own
age, to pay that set down. for the age,y 2,), and, by this mean
enabling the owner of a little,savinglo torn it to the best ac-
count. The societv w ill, mOreOyer, tAceive all this sum by inT._
stahnents, and two-thirds of !he amount paid may, at Any
be :withdrawn on deposit of the policy, and iu the event of
death before the stipulated age, two-thirds of the payment will
'be returned to the family.

ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.

THOMAS ATKlNSreiPeTtfuilTitTf(Trin;the Inhabitants
of Liverpool and its' Vicinity, that the present Season
commences This-n,ys
,(Tuesday,) May Ist, when the Sub-
scriptions may be.renewed at the Gardens, at Mr. Grapel's and
the Newspaper Offices as usual.
He takes this opportunity of again returning thanks to his
Friend-316r their liberality, and particularly to the Captains of
Vessel's coming into this port, who, with'few exceptions, have
proved the interest they feel in the Establishment by their very
handsome and liberal presents ofiling Animals, Plants, &c.
The Menagerie is nancilimproye nce the commencement of
last season, particularly in the Carnivora ; and, he is happy in
being able to say, he has the finest and most extensive collection
of that class in the kingdom.
Mr. Danson, the artist who designed and executed the repre-
sentation of Mount Vesuvius at the Surrey Zoological Gardens,
is engaged, and is now in a forward state of preparation with a
fac-simile Exhibition on the same grand scale and plan. Two
thousand square yards of ground are preparing to be inundated
with water, and, when completed, will form the Bay of Naples,
which, together with a view of that City, its Fort, -Lighthouse,
and extensive range of Mountains, adjoining Vesuvius, (the
situation being admirably adapted Mr the purpose,) will form
the most magnificent and imposing scene, and will, it is hoped,
prove as attractive as its predecessor at the Surrey Gardens : for
on no previous occasion have so many persons been known to
assemble to witness any public sight in the metropolis as on this.
The interest it excited has induced the proprietor to continue it
a second season. In compliance with the wishes of a large portion
of the inhabitants whose occupations prevent them from attend-
ing the Gardens on week days, the proprietor has come to the
resolution to admit the PUBLIC ON SUNDAYS, after Three
o'Clock. Tickets of Admission to be obtained, exclusively, at
the Derby, the new Hotel recently erected, adjoining the 'Gar-
dens, upon and after SUNDAY, the 13th of May.

l'hef continue to fill up the cavities of decayed teeth with the
Mineral Martnoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure,
it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few
seconds gets hard; preventing unit curing the tooth-ache, ar-
r3sting, all further ptogress of decay, and rendering the operation
of extraction unnecessary. The mineral not only converts a
mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but by completely
stopping up the cavity prevents effectually that unpleasant taint
of the breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the teeth awl gums,- there is
none more destructive in their effects, or more generally pre-
valent than scurvy. and it is well known that the loss of teeth
arises more from this cause than any other, It affects 'indivi-
duals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary
cause of tooth ache and decay; to those so affected Mons. Le
Dray & Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually re-
move this destructive complaint by a single application without
the slightest pain. •
Artificial and natural teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed front

pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, answering all the pur-
poses of mastication and articulation, remaining perfectly secure

ton. The shops are all closed, and there is atotal suspension I
of business. Whilst the Sheffield and Rotherham troops of
yeomany were on theit way to join the regiment at Doncas-
ter, on permanent duty, au express overtook them at Conis-
borough, and they immediately returned. The express pro-
ceeded to Doncaster with communications to Lord NV harn-
cliffe upon the subject ; and Captain-Glanville, the adjutant
of the regiment, immediately proceeded to Rotherham, to
render his assistance. The town is in the greatest state of ex-
citement and alarm. The troops are now parading the streets
in all directions; and every exertion has been made to pre-
serve the peace during the night.
Six o'CLocK.—Through the exertions which have been
used by the authorities, assisted bv•the military, peace has
hitherto been preserved. The Sheffield troops of Yeomanry
Cavalry have left for Doncaster. The Rotherham troop re-
mains, and is acting in concert with the artillery and the
police force. All is quiet at this moment; but the excite-
ment and alarm which prevailed during the day has not
wholly subsided.
The Sheffield troops reached Doncaster at eight o'clock on
Thursday.

In reference to this unfortunate affray, we have received
the following communication from the North Midland Rail-
way-office :
On Wednesday last, in consequence of a dispute of a trival'
nature, a great number of the English and Irish labourers
employed on the North Midland Railway, between Darfield
and Masbro', met at the latter place, armed for a desperate
conflict, but through the persuasion and active interference
of the Deputy Chairman and the Directors, (who were on
the ground,) aided by Mr. Stephenson, the contractor, and the
agents on the line, the parties, amounting altogether to about
700, separated without condo., into actual collision, although
within '2OO yards of each other. The English party were
induced to follow the Directors along the line nearly two
miles, where they were again addressed by the Deputy Chair-
man, and promised to return to their own quarters and re-
sume work peaceably on the following day.
The Irish followed Mr. Stephenson to Rotherham, where
we lean that proper pt otect ion was afforded them.
The Directors who had previously been in communication
with the Rev. Henry Bowen Cooke, a magistrate resident at
Darfield, waited upon him ou Wednesday evening, when
arrangenients were made which it is hoped will prevent the
repetition of these outrages.
We are sorry to state, however, that hostilities were
threatened on the following day at Masbro', but through the
active exertions of Earl Fitzwilliam, the Messrs. Walker,
and other magistrates in the neighbourhood, measures have
been taken to preserve the peace.

WEST DERBY WARD.

A Radical meeting of the West Derby Ward was held at
Mr. Coombe's, Edge-hill, on Friday night last, to determine
on a suitable person to represent the ward at the ensuing elec-
tion. Mr. R. W. \Vood was proposed, upon which, he made
a speech, and reflected upon the persons who had not sup-
ported him at the last election; declaring that such were not
real Reformers, although professing to be so—a hint was also
thrown out, that he doubted nut, that some individuals were
there as spies, and would convey the result of their meeting to
the Tory camp. Upon this Mr. Ex-Collector Pennell (who
by the way has no vote) wished the meeting to adjourn to his
"little back parlour," where they could talk the matter over
mere privately, taking care not to admit any person, who did
not belong to the " whole hog" clique. Many of the party
seeming any thing'but desirous of becoming acquainted with
the secrets of that prison house, and, more particularly, of
being classed as " Peunell's hogs," over-ruled the proposition;
and, Mr. Wood proceeded to say, he was anxious to learn front
Mr. Ex-Overseer Willan, (who knew as much •of the ward
at any one present) if he thought there would be any chance
of succeeding this time. Mr. W. observed, that he enter-
tained no doubt, if an "out-and-outer," whose name stood
A. 1, at Lloyd's, would oppose Mr. Leigh, that from intim-
mation he possessed, the majority would decide for the "whole
hog." Mr. Hardman Earle was spoken of as a gentleman
very suitable for their purpose, but the "respectable assem-
blage" were divided in their opinions. A conversation then
ensued, between Mr. Ex-Collector Pennell, and Mr. Ex-
Overseer Willan, the former expressing an ardent desire to
become a councillor, the latter, however, put an extinguisher
upon the ambition of the former, by telling hint "he would
not do," and thought lie (Mr. W.) had better be nominated.
The Knight of the Clod felt chagrined at this unexpected
check, by replying, that inasmuch as he had the confidence (!)
of the ward, he was sure of success, and could get six votes to
Mr. \V.'s one, at "anny tonne." Some further desultory
conversation transpired, when it was resolved, "that a com-
mittee be appointed to wait upon different gentlemen, with a
request that some one would allow himself to be put in nomi-
nation." Mr. Wood informed the meeting, that be declined
coming out on the present occasion.
Perhaps the " uuostentatious" steward of the national con-
vention will.hare an opportunity for the display of his vanity,
and classic powers of oratory, by being brought out on the
shoulders of the people, if so, will he not bid defiance to all
opposition ? 0 tempora ! 0 mores !—From a Correspondent.

RUMOURED RESIGNATION OF LORD

DURHAM.
Extract of a letter from New York, of the 19th ult.
by the Europe. :
It is here reported, for certain, that Lord Durham has
resigned his .VicerOyalty, immediately on receiving the des-
patches from the government at home. The report is
generally believed in New York, and is of course made the
subject of many speculations. All the accounts we receive
agree in stating that preparations are snaking fur another
insurrection, and those who wish that the Canadas shall re-
main attached to England have gloomy apprehensions for
the winter.

We hope, with the Lancashire Herald, that their
apprehensions will prove groundless ; but if they are
nor, we fear that we cannot expect the same enthusi.
astic assistance from the loyal colonists, as these brave
men afforded on the last occasion. The coldness, and
even repulse with which they were met by Lord Dur-
ham, must have its natural effect in damping their
zeal. IF it be true, as is generally believed in the
States, that he has resigned, his place must be filled by
a man of far different character and political tenden-
cies.

The Europe has brought a messenger charged with
important despatches from Lord Durhain to Lord Glen-
elg, and which may contain the official communication
of his lordship's resignation. The arrival of the mes•
senger is, at all events, rather critically co-incidental
with the rumour in New York. No other message,
we believe, has been dispatched from Canada since
hostilities ceased.

The New York Daily Express states that

" It is rumoured in Upper. Canada, among the best in-
formed circles, that Sir George Arthur has already resigned
the Lieutenant-Governorship of the Province."
