IMPERIAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,
1, OLD BROAD STREET, LONDON.

Instituted 1820.

WILLIAM R. ROBINSON, ESQ., Chairman.
HENRY DAVIDSON, ESQ., Deputy-Chairman.

The SCALE OF PREMIUMS adopted by this Office will be found of a very moderate character, but at the same time quite adequate to the risk incurred.

FOUR-FIFTHS, or 80 per cent. of the Profits, are assigned to Policies every fifth year, and may be applied to increase the sum insured, to an immediate payment in cash, or to the reduction and ultimate extinction of future Premiums.

ONE-THIRD of the Premium on Insurances of £500 and upwards, for the whole term of life, may remain as a debt upon the Policy, to be paid off at convenience; or the Directors will lend sums of £50 and upwards, on the security of Policies effected with this Company for the whole term of life, when they have acquired an adequate value.

SECURITY.-Those who effect Insurances with this Company are protected by its Subscribed Capital of £750,000, of which £140,000 is invested, from the risk incurred by members of Mutual Societies.

The satisfactory financial condition of the Company, exclusive of the Subscribed and Invested Capital, will be seen by the following Statement:

At the close of the last financial year, the sums Assured, including

Bonus added, amounted to............

The Premium Fund to more than

And the Annual Income from the same source, to

800,000

109,000

The Island Empire; or, The Scenes of the First Exile of Napoleon I. Together with a Narrative of his Residence on the Island of Elba, taken from local information, the papers of the British Resident, and other authentic Sources. By the Author of 'Blondelle.' 2nd Edition, with coloured Illustrations. Svo, cloth, 12s. A monograph which we have read with deep interest. ... Many of his (Napoleon's) remarks read like prophecies, and have an interest as pressing in our time as when they were uttered.'-Athenæum.

A fresh subject, treated freshly without being overdone. It has interest in reference to present affairs.'-Spectator.

The Philosophy of the Fall, and its Remedy. By the Rev. E. C. TOPHAM, M.A., Curate of Ticehurst, Sussex. Post 8vo, cloth, Ss. 6d.

Great as Ours. With some hitherto unconsidered Facts connected with the Residence of Moral Agents in the Worlds that surround the Stars. By T. C. SIMON, Author of The Mission and Martyrdom of St. Peter,' &c. Fcap. 8vo, 5s.

Mr. Simon pursues his chain of reasoning with great ability, and points out with equal acumen the sophistry of most of the arguments in the work above alluded to (The Essay on the Plurality of Worlds'). This book is one meriting diligent study and perusal.'-New Quarterly Review.

The Formation and Progress of the 'Tiers Etat,' or Third Estate,

in FRANCE. BY AUGUSTIN THIERRY, Author of History of the Norman Conquest,' &c. Translated from the French by the Rev. FRANCIS WELLS. 2 vols. post Svo, 16s. M. Thierry composed this admirable book as an introduction to the documentary history of the Tiers Etat. It is, he tells us, the summary of his labours relative to France. His treatment of the subject is luminous and philosophical. It opens French history to its full dimensions, and surveys from an elevated range the sources, the currents, and the issues of those mighty events which, in the eighteenth century, accomplished the work of the Tiers Etat. M. Thierry's work is a fine historical study, and will add to the writer's high reputation. Mr. Wells has translated it clearly and gracefully.'-Athenæum.
