Of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, Iabouring 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 sufi-
cient to create large surpluses, out of
which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging
2liG 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
slve Premiums as are charged by every
other Company.
The following abridged Table shows tho

whole term, upon a single life -

Assurances of every description on sim
gle lives are granted by the Society for
any sum from 500 Dollars to 10000 Dol
lars.
Premiums are received Quarterly, Half
yearly, or Yearly, at the option Of the
Assured.
Assures wishing to discontinue the pay
ment of their Premiums, may either dis
pose of their Policies to the Society upon
equitable terms, or obtain a free Policy
for a reduced amount.
Loans are granted to Members on the
Security of their Policies.
All claims occurring by death are
promptly met within 3 months after salts
factory proof of such death has been re-
ceived by the Society.
Strict Investigations into the position Of
the Society are made fundamentally, and
the surplus then existing is allotted to the
Members, after a sufficient sum has been
set aside for the purposes of the Reserve
Fund. The next investigation and D wi
sion of Profits, will take place at the 31st
December, 1875.

of the British West India Islands.

The most important thing in brewing a
cup of tea consists in having the water
in the tea-ketle freshly boiled, and one
should never use that which has been
steaming and stewing for several hours.
50 turn out all the water in your kettle,
and fill it up with fresh, pure water !:
then boil it up briskly, and as soon as
the steam appears, turn small quantity
of water into the tea pot, and shake it
about in it. Then pour it out, and add
one teaspoonfull of tea for each person
who will drink from the pot, and one
teaspoonful for the pot = this is an old
rule of our grandmothers.) Over this
pour large eoffeecup of boiling water,
and for breakfast tea let it boil exactly
ten minutes boil hard. But for green
and Japan teas proceed as above, and
then place the teapot on the back of
the stove, or upon the elevated reservoir
and LET it steep from FIVE to eight min
utes. Tea made from freshly boiled
water and stepped in this manner. is an
entirely different beverage from that

ATRIUMPHFoR THE PEACE SOCIETY,"
The English division ofthe Peace Society
achieved a triumph in the House of

ton, despite the opposition of the Glad

Queen, urging that the British authorities
should communicate with foreign powers
with the view Of establishing asystem of
arbitration for the settlement of interna-
tional disputes. As the motion was only
carried by the casting vote of the Speaker,
Gladstone may endeavor TO upset it by
another motion. If however the negotia-

ascertain how far the example of the
