MANTLES.

A choice of above one hundred shapes, including the
Polka, Polka Pelisse, Duchesse de Nemours, Abyssinian
Cardinal, Cassovika Polish Tunic, Marquise, &c. &c., in
Velvet, Satin, Poult de Soie, Watered Ducape, Cashmere,
and Tartan, with every description of warm Travelling
Cloak, and a lot left from last year, at 17s. 6d., worth
30s.

N.B. A main feature in the new arrangement, and one
which will be obvious to every Purchaser is, that at this
Establishment Mantles and Cloaks may be purchased at
a much lower rate than would have to be paid if Ladies
bought their own Materials, and had them made up them-
selves ; besides which, the great advantage is afforded
them of selecting from above a hundred different shapes
and styles. To large Families, Schools, &c. this is of no
little importance.

COLUMBIA RIVER FUR COMPANY.

EUROPEAN BRANCH, 72, BOLD-STREET.

DEPOT, FORT VANCOUVER, OREGON OR COLUMBIA

RIVER, NORTH AMERICA.
THE Managers of this Company beg most respectfully
to tender to the Public their grateful thanks for the
unqualified patronage they have received since opening
this Establishment, and, in calling attention to their
PRESENT IMMENSE STOCK OF FURS,
_ _

which comprises every variety for which this River, one
of the greatest in America, is so justly celebrated, trust
that their future exertions may meet the same liberal
reward past energies have secured.
The mere title of the "Columbia Fur Company"
carries with it no more weight than that of any other
company; but the immense resources of this gigantic
stream, the length of which is 1560 miles, connecting by
its own waters, or immediate branches, the vast districts
of Austria, Colo, Canoe Camp, the Rocky Mountains,
Flat Brow, Chippeway, Pembunco, and the principle Fur
climates, as well as the Lakes, and the ready transit for
skins procured by the inhabitants, who, as well as the
native India tribes, principally gain their subsistence by
capturing fur-producing animals, enables this Company
to offer

FURS
AT PRICES THAT CANNOT BE EQUALLED,
(When Quality is consulted,)
BY ANY OTHER HOUSE IN THE KINGDOM.
The Oregon or Columbia River districts produces a
greater variety of Furs than any other in America. Sid-
ney Hall, Esq., when treating of zoology, in his able
introduction to Black'% General Atlas, says of this dis-
trict—" Its most distinguished characteristic is the number
of its Rodentia, amounting to no less than 53 well ascer-
tained species." The skins all of which are of excellent
quality.
As this House has only been recently opened, it must
be obvious to the public that their made-up Furs are all
OF THE LATEST STYLES OF FASHION.

ADVANTAGES

oN Life Policies, half the premiums may remain un-
paid for Seven Years, and then be continued as a
permanent loan, if required.
Thus a Policy is obtained at half the usual rate, and
may be dropped, at any time, at half the usual sacrifice, or
continued without fresh certificates, although the health
be impaired.
LIFE Policies may all be made WHOLE GLOBE ones. To
those insuring the lives of others this is often of conse-
quence, seeing that the person whose life is insured may
go out of Europe and cause a forfeiture of the policy.
Interest is admitted in all policies on the lives of others.

Every MARINER may now, if he will, derive advantage
from this Institution, either by an Insurance upon his
Life ; the purchase of an annuity to commence at a period
when age or incapacity unfits him for sea ; the Endow-
ment of Children ; by a Loan ; by depositing spare moneys
at interest ; by means of a fund expressly for destitute or
disabled Mariners. The word MARINER comprehends
individuale of every rank and grade, whether of the Royal
or Mercantile Navy, Members of the Coast Guard, Fish-
ermen, Pilots, or Boatmen of Great Britain and Ireland.
But INSURANCES at this office are not confined to Ma-
riners, INDIVIDUALS going voyages, or intending to set-
tle in distant or dangerous parts of the globe may insure
their lives; as MILITARY MEN' MEDICAL PRACTI-
TIONERS, and CIVILIANS : SO ALL PERSONS, re&iding on
shore, in England, or any where in Europe, are eligible.
TABLES OF PuEmiumsfor every kind of risk have been
calculated, and the rates made as low, in each case, as are
compatible with the particular risk and the pecuniary
safety of all paries.
The Premiums on Policies to cover Voyages of every
description and service, in every part of the globe, viz.,
with permission to go any and every where without for-
feiture, are lower than have ever hitherto been taken.
Life Assurances and Deferred Annuities deserve the
serious consideration of all. How often does death over-
take men in the midst even of health and hope. flow
often are those most dear to them, wives, children, pa-
rents, or other relations, thus•deprived of all support.
Full Prospectuses may be had at the Chief Offices, in
London, or of the Agents to the Company.
