' Indivi<!aals who contemplate Life Assurance. ~hould, in order to avoid the too common mistake of rashly adopting the lowest scale of rates to be paid annually. first make a careful comparison of principles and their results, as variously adopted by different offices. That plan is evidently the most favourable to the Assured. which divides the profits annu.allg in reduction of future premiums. since by this means. the advantages are distributed with much more regularity and justice than any other. The National Life Assurance Society. proceeding on this prmciple, was the first to combine with it a Guarantee fund. to make, at the smallest possible expense, a provision for Widows, Offspring, or other Survivors. After the first five yearii' experience, when five full Premiums had been paid, the National Life A~urance Society, reduced the Sixth Year's Premium one-third, with the advantages to the Assured of participating in the profits every year afterwards. , A person assuring at the age of thirty, when the Society was formed in the year 1830, paid £2 J 3s. for the first five years, to secure £100 at his death; but for the sixth year, he had only to pay £1 l5s. 4d. while the lowest annual payment at any other Society, is £1 l9s. 7 d. at the same age, without eiiher addition to Policy, or reduction of Premium ;~thu:; shewing the advantages of the National Life Assurance Society i n principle. _ • Assurances can be effected in this Society, from £50 to £4,000, upon single or joint Lires, or sun·h·ing Life or Li\·es. The Profits of the Society, are ascertained at'the end of every year, and Ouc-fifth of the whole nppropriated in manner following:- Two thirds of this One-fifth are divided amongst the Assured, for the whole time of Life, who bave been w Assured 1 for the full period of Five Years; and the remaining One-third to the Proprietors of the Subscribed Capital. The Court of Directors meet every Wednesday, at One o'Clock; but parties desirous of effecting Assurnncttl without delay, can appear at the Office, any Morning bf'tween the hours of Ten and Twelve, where a Director i.s D attendllllce to afford every facility. .

This Society is founded on the equitableprinciple of mutual guarantee. The rates of Premium (for lives under 45) are considerably below those of other offices, thus yielding an immediate advantage to parties insuring, besides which the members enjoy the benefit of periodical bonuses, which have already amounted to £44fl, 798. By this plan, the Norwich Union Office affords a certain and immediate advantage in the reduction of the rates, besides the future benefits arising from the divisions of the surplus Capital. Since the lst of January last 440 new Policies have been issued, a number probably not exceeded by any other Office, and affording the most conclusive evidence of the public confidence in this establishment.

It was thought by the projectors of the present Company, th:}t an Institution bearing their name and conducted principally by members of their own body, would be more likely to awaken the attention and command the confidence of Dissenters, than_ the several Offices previously existing. Another object contemplated by the Company is an appropriation of a tentl1 part ofthe profits of the general business, to the benefit of the families of Dissenting Ministers. By this feature of their plan, the Directors hope to be enabled, from time to time, to effect such reductions in the Premiums of Ministers assured in this Office, as will induce them, or their congregations on their behalf, extensively to avail themselves of the advantages of the Institution. w ~~ wa~m~~~~ ~~~ID @®Wlll~~lr~ 55, OLD_ BROAD STREET.

The steadily increasing business of this Institution affords the most .,;atisfactory evid,ence, that the more the peculiar advantages secured to its members become known, the n;ore they are justly appreciated and approved. The Directors therefore feel it to be their duty to endeavour to extend the Ephere of its usefulness as widely as possible, by keeping the public attention directed to its important benefits. The distinguishing characteristic of thi,; establishment is ENTIRE MUTUALITY. The 'YHOLE PROFITS will be equitably apportioned amongst all the As!mrers, who have the OPTION to apply them either to the RE· DUCTION OF THE PREMIUMS 01' to INCREASE THE AMOUNT ASSt:RED. The Acts of Parliament relating to Friendly Societies, under which it is enrolled, confer the important privileges of ENTIRE EXE~PTION FR0:\1 STAMP DUTIES, and permission td invest its funds with the Corn. missioners of the National Debt, at a liberal rate of interest, secure from loss by the fluctuation in value to which other Glvernment Securities are liable. These privileges, it is obvious, must be most valuable in aid of the accumulation of profits. Amongst other advantages it may be stated that EVERY ASSURER 1S A ME:\'IBER, entitled to attend and vote at- the Gene:al Me<:tings of the Society, and free from individual reo:ponsibility. NO MEMBER can be involved in Legal Expense, as, should any dispute arise, it muo;t Eettled by Arbitrators, appointed agreeabl,Y with the aforesaid Act of Parliament. ASSURERS may secure the benefit of their Policies to Nominees, FREE OF EXPENsE. Attendance at the office in London, daily from Ten to Four, and for the conveJience of Assurers in the country, Agents and Medical Referees are appointed in most of the principal towns.

APPENDIX. Patent Fire-proof Boxes & Sa:fes, FOR THE PRESERVATION OF PROPERTY AGAINST FIRE. The following Affidavits are confidently submitted to the Public as the most satisfactory and convincing proofs of the great protection that would be afforded to Property by using the Patent Fire-proof Boxes and Safes, invented and manufactured by • ARR . ' ClteajJSitle, LOJitlOII. "JAMES BRAID WOOD, Superintendent of the London Fire Engine Establishment, Watling Street, in the City of London, maketh oath and saith, that one of the Patent Fire-proof Boxes was delivered to him by Mr. MARR, of No. :.-33, Bread Street, Cheapside, the Patentee, on Thursday, the 13th instant, with a request to throw it into the first fire to which this Deponent might be called upon to render assistance, in order that it might be clearly and fairly ascertained if the Box, when exposed to great heat, would preserve property contained therein from destruction. The Box, when delivered to this Drponent, contained some parchment and paper with this Deponent's name written thereon, and was carefully locked. On the morning of Friday the 14th instant, this Deponent was called upon to render assistance at a fire which occurred on the premises of Mr. Waiter Brooks, of Rotherhithe, near the Thames Tunnel. This Deponent got on the top of the next house, and desired one of the firemen to throw the before mentioned Box into the centre of the house, which was completely on fire, and the flames were sufficiently stroug to destroy almost any thing within their reach. 'fbe Box was accordingly thrown into the flames, and disappeared from view. The Box remained in the ruins till Monday evening, the 17th instant, when it was dug out, and opened in Deponent's presence, and it was then discovered that the parchment and paper contained in it were not in the smallest degree discoloured or injured.

• APPENDIX. RHEUMATISM. ROYAL Letters Patent has recently been ~rapted to Mr. CoLE!il for a M EniCATED BAND, which pllssitively cures RnEUM.\TBM, LUMBi\Go, CRAMP, PAINS IN THE KIDNEYs, &c. &c. The Band is worn near the part affected, and may be removed at pleasure. A great public functionary connecterl with one of our London Hospitals, whose case, to use his own expression, had baffied every Medicine that was quack, and every medicine that was not quack, has sent 1\h CoLEs his written testimonial, which may be seen a~ 3. Charin~ Cross; wherein he admit" that Mr. CoLEs's RHEU'liATIC BANDs have completely subdued bis disease, and he declared there was not a man npon the face of the earth who had more reason to be grateful to another than he had to l\'Ir. CoLEs. Jo~eph Clay, Esf!., of Arden Mills, Dcnton, near Manchester, in a Letter dated 2d July, 1835, says:- "I have received the Rheumatic Bands, the whole of which 1 have worn since May last, and I have tbe plea~ure to state that tuey have relieved my sufferings in my shoulders, wrists, knfes, and hip, I still feel weak in my ankles, but on the whole I think, by persevering with them, they will make me young again. The Rev. l\lr. Wilder, of Car! ton Rectory, near Newmarket, in a note dated ;20th October, 1835, says, that he has suffererl very severely from Sciatica, for more than two years, and about tht·ee we~ks since, he obtained one ofColes's Medicated Band~, and the pain has, during- the short time he has worn it, neai'ly, if not entirely left him, he had tried many supposed remedies without receiving any benefit. Sir,-1 am in ju~tice bound to state that in consequence of a virulent attack of Yellow Fever, I returned from the \Vest lnrlies with Paraly~is in my left hand, and a severe Rheumatic Aff"ection in my right thigh. That by the me of the Waters of Weisbaden, I got rid of the Pantlysis; but the acute p'tin in my limb still continuin~, I applied and wore for a considerable time, with the most happy result, yom· Medicated Band, which afforded me immediate relief. I am, Sir, your obliged Servant, Boulogne, 17th May, 1837, A. M. l\JAXWELL, Lient, Col. 30th Regiment. Lieutenant-Sti~ted, of the 3d Regiment of Light Dragoons, informs those who have Rheumatism, that he has worn Coles's Medicated Bands four months, that they have relieved him from a state of suffering scarcely to be deo;cribed; the Colonel to evince his gratitude to Mr. Coles, has authorised him to make use of his name in any way he thinks proper No. 4, Craven-Sheet, Strand, London, 22d April, 1837. Colonel Francklin acrtnaints Mr. Coles that the Medicated Bands furnished to him have entirely removed the pain in hi~ shoul1iet· and ann, in which pad.s he has been for many months a great sufferer from Rheumatism, althou~h employing various remedies in hopes of obtaining relief; the pain continued, and he was unable to pull ofl" his coat or 1lress himself without assistance. Colonel Francklin sends .Mr. Coles this testimony to make what u~e be pleases. Black heath, 22d M arch, 1838. I ht>reby certify that I had a severe attack of Rheumatism in my hand and wrist, and could neither button my coat nor dre~s or undress my;:;elfwithout assistance, that l applied Coles's Medicated Band, which removed the pain in six hours; and in two days 1 wa-; perfectly free from the complaint. 19, Gloucester Street, Queen Square, March 3, 1838. ROBERT SMITH. ~Sir,-During the la"t eight-months I have been severely afflicted with Sciatica, Lumbago, and Rheumatism, for which I could get no relief, even under the best medical advice. Your Medicated Bands were f'ecommended to me by persons who had been relieved, and I am happy to say that they afforded me, during t!Je most acute sufl'ct·ir.gs, almo,:,t instantaneou!! relief, and at less than one"twentieth part of the ex pence that I had previously incurred. You are at full liberty to make what use you please of this letter, for !J() invaluable a discovery cannot be too widely circulated. 13, Cecil Street, Strand, Lonrlon, 21st May, 1838. I am, Sir, your's, greatly obliged. R. TYAS. Sir,-A patient of mine, who from repeated attacks of fever and long continue<l illness, became paralyzed ia both hands, and the fle~h of his arms much reduced from his elbows downwards; I recommended your l\1 edicated Bands, which he wore for several weeks, and to my surprise his flesh heca Le tirm aud hi!< strength wonderfully restored; I then advised him to try the hot waters at Bath, where he experienced a still further change, and he is now a useful membet· of society, and that he never would have been, in my opinion, had he not employed your Banrls. William Coles,Charing Cross. I am Sir, your obedient Servant, June 2, 1838, Park Street, Cam den Town. JOSEPH CLARK, Surgeon. On the day of her l\Iajesty's Coronation, Mr. Coles was himse)f seized with Sciatica, in Hyde-park, where be had. gone to s~ the fire-works, but wa'l obliged to quit the scene and apply the usual remedy to prevent the complaint: but in !ipite of his remedy he ~ot worse the whole niQ"ht, and the next day was scarcely able to move; but in less than twenty-four hours he was again perfectly free from the complaint, and has had no return. He applierl a much greater quantity of Bands thJ.n he ever employed at any time previously to tbiil attack. Persons s.uhject to attacks of Pleurisy, Rheumatism, Lumbago, or Sciatica, lVeak Knees, Bruis•~s, Face-ache, Tooth"ache, Ear-ache, or Shooting Pains in fany part of the Body or Limbs, arising from want of free circulation of tue blood, or obstructed perspiration, should keep these Bands by them, as they will preserve their virtue-. for years in any climate, and when th.ey feel symptoms ofits approach, meet the disease half-way, put them on. "Coles on Rheumati~m," price one penny, is a single post letter, which will be forwat·ded (gratis) to any part of the kingdom. The Bands may be procured through any Londou Coachman or Guard.

The PatPntee assurin~ them that had he not the practical knowledge he would not recommend the above with such confidl"nre, 'ft"hich emboldens him to solicit the attention of all shipowners, captains, and travellers, as there requires no more room for the Patent Swinging Cott than for a fixed Birth ; the price being little more than what is usually charged for similar article:~ upon the old principle, as it is only by the extent of patronage whereby the Patt>ntee expects remunera1ion.

A:P:PENDJ:X. attttt. THE PATENT CORRUGATED IRON, MANUFACTURED BY BUILDER, <tc. FORT-PLACE, GRANGE-ROAD, BERMONDSEY, LONDON. Corrugated Iron.-Economy, durability, lightness,anrl strength are combined in this mode of preparing Sheet Iron, insomuch that a single Sheet of Iron so thin that it will not continue in a · perpendicular position, will, after undergoing the process of Corrugation, bear upwards of 700 lbs. weight, without bending in the least degree; its durability will be proved by its sustaining no injury from the weather, when covered with a slight coat of Paint; and its cheapness is obvious from the saving which it effects in other materials generally used in buildins;-, it requiring no heavy Timbers, or expensive Brick-work or Masonry, to form every variety of erection. Therefore it is quite certain that no art~c!e ean be_ applied _to the purposes fo; which it is intended, possessing so eminently the above qualities. This result Is produced by g1vmg to Sheet Iron the form of continued Arches as indicated in fig. 3 of the Sketch. ' 3 ' ""' • I ' 4 Roofs. Sheds, &.c.-The Conugated Iron may be seen, on an extensive scale, in the Lcndon Docks, where it has been applieu to the erection of Sheds for protecting Goods from the effect of the weather. The Drawing represents one of them in the Entrance Basin, the length of which is 225 feet, its width 40 feet, and the height of the columns on which the roof is supported, 12 feet. The columns are of cast iron, a Gutter of which metal is continued from column to column, the whole length of the roof, and in the gutter rests the edge of tte roof. The arch is formed of several sheets of iron curved in the transverse direction to the corrugated arcl1cs, as described fig. 2, and rivetteu together longitudinally, a continuation of similar arches connected to each other by rivets, compose the roof; every corrugated arch forms a watercourse ending in the gutters at the side, thereby renderinp.- it quite waterproof. To give stability to the whole, a Tie Hod, fig. 4, is carried across the shed from each column to its opposite. Between this shed and the brick-wall is a Leanto Corrugated Roof, forming a half arch, springing from the gutter, and resting against the wall, as represented on the right of the sketch. Enclosed Warehouses may be constructed by using the Corrugated Iron, either as fixed partitions at the sides, or on the sliding principle described in the following paragraph. 58

The Door on the left hand is a representation of one composed of tbe Corrugated Iron only: the other has the addition of mouldings, formed of wood, attached to the Iron, which:is continued entirely through the back, so that it will be perceiv~d that the Iron supplies the strength, the wood being merely designed for ornament; when decoratively painted, it is capable of displaying the neatest t.1ste. Agricultural lluildings, Barns, Granaries, U..c. may be formed of it, without any timber or brick-work being used: and as it will relieve the Farmer from all dread of Nocturnal Incendiaries, who a few yrars since committed such alarming rava~es in many parts of the country, its adaptation for these purposes is cJnsidered by the Patentee ~s being of great benefit to the Agriculturist and the Public.

JOHN JEFFERIS & Co.'s Improve1l Patent Blowing- Machines, patronized by the Society of Art11, theHon. the Commissioners ofHct·l\Iaje;;ty's Navy, and the Hon. the East India Company. These Machine~ are applicable to all purpose~ were Blast is required from Bellows or BJaqt Cylinders; and from thci1· portability are particularly adapted for forming a circulation of fresh ai1· in Coal and other .Mine Works, and for Venti Iating Ships, Hospitals, Prisons, &c. -Their superiority, deduced from actual experiments, is as follows:- lst, They are quite portable and applicable tl} all Situations, take up little room, of !-limple construction,. are not liable to be out of repair, nor do they require particular attention whl?n working. 2dly, They pi'Oduce a much greater quantity uf Blast than any other method of Blowing, in the same time. with considerably less power. '3dly, From the superior quality of the Blast, much fuel is save1l in heating and smelting, and less waste in the materials. 4th ly, The quality of the body heated or smelted is retained, or improved, in a much greate1· degree than by any former method of Blowing-. 5th ly, Great advantages arise in welding or faggoting oflron, ag the whole ma~s, if ever so large, receives a reg-ular soaking- of heat, in much less time, without endan(jiCring a burning and waste on the surface, which, with the greatest attention, i~ well known to take place m the common methods of Blowing. The qualities of cast-iron in smelting, and steel in heating, are retained in a most wonderful manner, even when worked many times over. 6thly, Any pillar of Blast can be produced from these 1\far.hine;;, which are admirably adapted for smelting from the ore, hollow fires, and all purpu;;es where strong and soft blasts are re<J. uired, JOHN JEF.FERIS & Co.'s ~ntproutil ~nttnt mmttt nnn arv maeatbtr Plougb~ (See Engraving above.)

"Upon referring to my Letter from the West Indies, respecting the single-breasted Ploughs which you sent out last year for my Estate.; at Antigua, I have great pleasure in stating the rcp01·t of my Attorney and :Manager to be most favourable: he (l\lr Barnard) says, that till he tried your Plou!rh, he had considered it almost impossible to equal those of Cooke, hut n pon a fair trial he prefers yours, and considers them to pass more easily through the ground. He concludes his letter by requesting me to send out two more of your Ploughs, a., expeditiously as possible. These having now been sent, with iron-work complete f01·two mere~ by the Cato, Mm·ton, I have further to request you ·will make for me a double-breasted Plough, with duplicate :parts similar to that which you sent out last yt>ar. "You are quite welcome to show this Letter to any Gentleman, if it may be like! y to prove useful to you, or to copy ofl' any part of it for that ob.iect, a.; I am f!uite satisfied of their decided superiority to eve1·y other Plough hitherto tried in Antigua, and .wallowed there.

RO\VLEY having discovered a method of making a LAC£-liOLE OF METAL, has great pleasure in introducing it to the notice of the Public. It is a great desideratum in the annals of improvement, and deserving the approval of all ranks in society-its yast utility being felt by every individual, more or less, on the face of the globe. C. R. has made it his principal study for two years to bring the article to perfection, and is now proud to say be has been able to accomplish the desired end. The improved Circlet or Metallic Lace-Hole has already met with the approbation of some of the larges American Shipping Companies, most of the proprietors of Trading Vessels, all the largest Stay-Makers, and most of the Wholesale Brace and Belt Manufacturers in the kingdom, The improved Metallic Lace-Hole is applicable for LADIES STAYS, BRACRS, BOOTS, WAISTCOA1'- SPRI:\'GS, SHIP SAILS, WINDMILL SAILS, l\1ARQUEES, TENTS, BEDSACKING, TARPAUL· JNGS, RlCK-CLOTHS, AWNINGS, SID~ CLOTHS .FOR CANAL BOATS, and all other purposes where the friction of tile Lace or Cord has a tendency to DESTROY the LACE-HOLE. For LRdies Stays, the Improved Metallic Lace-Hole is a desirable acquisition, as the tedious process of working the holes with silk is rendered entirely unnecessary; and the process of fastening them in the staysis so simple, that a child can do it with ease and facility; and the price too is another consideration, being much lower than working with silk can possibly be. And for Bed-Sackiugs, the Metallic Lace-Hole is found to be a great improvement : it has hitl1erto been a matter of complaint, that the cord, in lacing the sacking, has so cut and worn it out, as to render it useless in a very little time. By using the Metallic Eyelet; or Lace-Hole, tbe sacking willla~t for generations. The facility and advantages are equally felt with regard to the larger sizes, such as for Sails of Vessels, &c. &c. The Metallic Lace-Hole consists of two parts; bnt when fastened in, forms one entire and perfect eyelet.- Proper directions for using them will be sent with each order. C. R. begs leave to return hi:~ sincere thanks to those of his FrienJs nnd the Public who have nlready bononred them with their commands, nnd w!Jile he hopes, by unremitting attention and perseverance, to merit a continuance of their favours, be begs to assure them that be fears_no competition from any other House. 64


APPENDIX. L r-r ' s STEEL PEN ])IANUF ACTURER, AND OF THE vVHOLESA LE AND FOR EXPORTATION, VIC~~ORIA 1VORI{S, GRAHAl\1 STREET, 59, NEWHALL STREET, BIRMINGHA!tl'. J. G. has for the last fifteen years been engaged in the manufacture of" STEEL PENS," and during that time has devoted his unceasing attention to the improvement and perfecting of this useful and necessary article. The result of his perseve.ring efforts, aided by numerous Experim~nts upon the properties of the metal used, and the various modes of construction, is now before the Public in CILLOTT'S NEW. PATENT STEEL PEN, w hicb, being constructed upon a principle perfectly new, combines all tl1e advantages of the Elasticity and fineness of the Quill with the Durability of the .Metallic Pen, and thus obviates all the objections hitherto existing against the use of Steel Pens. The Patentee is proud to acknowledg-e that a discerning Public has paid the n1ost gratifying tribute to the value of his humble, though useful labours, by a demand for the NEW PATENT STEEL PEN, beyond his means of supply, in the premises he now occupies; he has therefore, in addition, erected the above extensive and most commodious \Vorks, which will enable him to meet the in~reasing- demand with punctuality and dispatch. 65
