INCORPORATED BY SPECIAL ACT 1851.
CHIEF OFFICE:

gIQHLS Society, which confines it's bust
"a ness exclusively to assuring the live
of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, labouring in the same
field, can offer. It's scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that Of
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate to provide for the
risk Of life in the West Indies, and suffi-
cient to create large snrpIuses, out of
which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging
q per cent per annum upon the amount
assured have been distributed among the
Members Of the Society.
Its career, during a period of 80 years
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part of the
world, are, when carefully selected, almost
as valuable as those inhabiting Europe,
and that they do not demand such exces
sive Premiums as are charged by every
other Company.
The following abridged Table shows the
Premiums required to assure 500, for the
whole term, upon a single life -

Mr.. EDIToR:-A very pleasant occasion was
enjoyed by the teachers and students of West
brook Seminary, on Sunday evening. Nov. Sth,
Sunday happened to be the birth day of the
Principal, VIM. Aug. Poste, and this coming to
the ears of the teachers and students, they de-
termined to surprise him with an appropriate
birth day present pair of large and beauti-
full brackets, together with pair of statuettes,
the whole forming magnificent gift, we're pro-
cured and presented to the gentleman by Miss
L. Maria Buffum, in the presence of the stu
dents and teachers of the Seminary. Mr. Poste
was very much surprised, but responded in a
heartfelt manner, testifying his gratitude for
their gift, aud also showing his cognizauce of
the feelings which prompted it.
He said be should always cherish the gift and
the pleasant occasion on which he was made
the recipient of it. Mr.. Poste is a worthy
young man. and is much liked and respected
BY the teachers and pupils under his charge.
The present was selected by Miss Annie La
than, teacher of Drawing and Painting, IL the
institution, who exercised her usual good taste
h the matter. The whole affair was an enJoya-
pie one and will long be remembered by all
concerned. STUDENT.

House of Correction.

When and why are prostitutes sent to oul
Aims House? What are the effects upon them
and upon the community?
have been told by good authority that these
persons were never arrested so long as they
were able to take care of themselves, and such
is undoubtedly the fact, for it will be remem.
bered that they are not taken as criminals but
as Migrants. Now it is known to all who have
given any thought or attention to the subject
that strumpets are always welcome to any of
the lower houses of ill fame as long as they are
free from disease: but as soon as it is found out
that they are diseased and unable to pay their
expenses. complaint is made by some party in
terested and then follows the arrest for vagran
cy and the removal to the Aims House. Here
they are generally allowed to remain until well
of their physical trouble or else sent out OF the
city with promise not to return.
AS rule, to which there are few if any ex-
ceptions, they 60 directly back to their old mas
