BRISCOE begs leave to return most sincere thanks to
ttly • his numerous Friends, for their very liberal support,
and to inform them that the state of his health at present,
and for some time past, (arising from the great exertions,
both mental and bodily, required for conducting -a business
so extensive,) demands that be should relinquish business
altogether or admit a Partner to take a share of the labour.
In order to Make way fo, such arrangement as the latter,-
it would be necessary to CLEAR OFF a considerable por-
tion of- the STOCK ; be has therefore made such a RE-
DUCTION IN PRICES as he feels confident will speedily
enable him to accomplish so desirable an object. The

• SPECIAL NOTICE.
Upon the 15th November IN EACH YEAR the Books of the
Standard Life Assurance Company are closed for the Annual
Audit and Report; and upon the 15th November in every
FIFTH YEAR the entire Funds and Engagements of the Office
are investigated and minutely valued; the Profit ascer-
tained, and divided among those interested. Policy-holders,
in participating in this Fund, are ranked at each Division
with reference to their proportion of Profit, according to the
period of their connexion with the Company, dating from the
Annual Balance immediately succeeding the opening of their
Policy. Thus, all Assurances, which have been opened in
the present year, and ‘vhich may be opened before the ap-
proaching close of the Books, have an advantage over sub-
sequent Policies; and it is of importance that persons having
it in contemplation to effect Assurances with the Office,
should hear in mind, that their Proposals must be lodged
before 15th November next, to_enable them to participate in
this benefit.

The first investigation of the Company's affairs took place
at 15th November, 1835, when the following additions were
declared by the Company on Policies opened prior to that
date, in the class entitled to participate in the Profits of the
Company. These additions are vested rights, under Policies
of five years' standing ;
