The Directors of this Society , in addition to the ordinary business usually transacted by Life Assurance Societies , have formed a distinct Branch for the Industrial Classes , embracing every system of Life Assurance , and for that purpose have caused extensive tables to be prepared , combining themterests of every class of Assurers , in a manner more comprehensive than has hitherto been attempted by any similar Society . The system of Life Assurance hitherto propounded , although admirably well adapted to the means and circumstances of the middling and higher classes of society , nevertheless is not available to the ever-varying condition of nearly nine-tenths of the people of this great commercial country , viz ., the Industrial Nhfepence per Mouth , or the cost of one pint of beer per week , will secure JE 30 to the wife and family , at the death of a man aged 25 next birthday ; or . One Shilling and Three Pence per Month will secure to a per-» on of the same age the sum of £ 25 on his attaining the age of 60 , or the same sum would be paid to his family should he die before attaining that age . NON-FORFEITURE OF MONEY PAID . 8 hould a person from any cause be unable to meet the payment of bis Premium , he will not lose the benefit of the Assurance but will be allowed , as often as the value of the Policy will admit , to charge the amount thereof on his Policy ; or , Should a person be altogether unable to continue the Assurance the Sums paid will not be forfeited as in other Offices as he will be granted , by the Directors , another Policy of less amount , but equivalent to the sums already paid , and exonerated from any future payments . .. - « ,, * . The Rates of Premium for Deferred Annuities , Endowments fDr Children , and every other information may be obtained of the Secretary , at the Oflices of the Society , 34 , Moorgate-Btreet , llank , or of any of the Agents .

      CUBES FOB THE UNCUBED ! HOLLO WAY'S OINTMENT . —An extraordinary Cure of Scrofula , or King ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . H . Alliuay , 209 , High-street , Cheltenham , dat « d the 22 nd of January , 1850 . To Professor Hollo way . • Sir , —My eldest son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling- in the neck , which , after a short time , broke out into an Ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing- in virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes , which was expected to break . During- the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the Surgeons said that he would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that limb were taken off , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In this desperate state I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months' perseverance in their use , the tumour gradually began to disappear , and the discharge from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed , and the boy thoroughly restored to the blessings of health , to the astonishment of a large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth of this miraculous case . Three years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the malady , and the boyis now as healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstances I consider that 1 should be truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .
