Strand . Tbe whole of the policy holders were invited . The unfavourable state of the weather prevented many from attending , but about sixty sat down to an early supper , admirably provided by Mr . Bacon , of the ' Freemasons' Tavern . The object of the Directors was to introduce the policy-holders to each other , and to receive a report of the affairs of the society , which were clearly stated to be most favourable . The number of policies issued very far exceeded expectation , and the
prospects were most promising . Ihe Chairman , Mr . Dobson , Deputy-Chairman , Dr . Crucefix , Professor Ansted , Dr . Johnson , and other gentlemen , delivered addresses and entered into the ' minutiae of Life Assurance , vital statistics , and all collateral subjects , with much animation , which their auditors evidently appreciated by the most rivetted attention . —Post Magazine . A careful perusal of the prospectus will satisfy the most fastidious and critical observerthat this Mutual Life Society is perfectly unselfish
, , that it is established upon the broadest principles of philanthropy ; and on that account , if upon no other , it merits the confidence of the humbler as well as the support of the wealthier classes . One fact will attest that its importance is not altogether unappreciated—for within six months of its establishment , upwards of two hundred policies have been effected . The Registrar , we understand , has expressed his warm approbation of tbe deed of this society .
PUBLIC LECTURE , Dec . 20 , —A lecture on the practical advantages of Life Assurance , was delivered by Mr . Frederic Lawrance , to the operatives in the employ of Mr . Smith , in Long Acre , which was received with marked attention . It would be well if the Actuaries of all Insurance offices were engaged in similar industrial efforts to propagate the faith .
