TESTANTS OF ALL DENOMINATIONS. rpiIIS Institution, which has been established nearly fifty years, | offers to Ministers peculiar facilities foV providing an AN- NUITY for a WIDOW, of from £ 10 to £ 50. Its capital of £ 22,000, which Is yearly increasing, has been raised, not by shares borrowed, bearing interest; but, with the exception of a few Legacies, from the subscriptions of its members. It will he seen by a reference to the annual reports, that the business of the soci- ety is conducted at a comparatively small cost; and as no profits are made by any pat-ties, all the advantages arising from improved finances are shared by all its members, either by increase of annuitv or reduction of premium the increase on. the former amounting in the last few years, according to length of membership, to 29 40' and 60 per cent. The premiums are calculated on the most mode- rate scale, consistent with the financial safety of the Society The llw which provides that a member leaving no widow the sum of from £ 100 to E400, according to the amount-of anrwity, shall be paid to his child or children, of whatever age, is a guarantee that the sum he contributes must ultimately benefit his family. No fee is demanded on admission beyond one year's premium paid in advance, which is carried to the individual's credit, and his beneficiary interest commences the moment such payment is made. To families, where there was no widow, various sums, from £ 100 to E320 have been paid, amounting, almost in all cases, to consider- ably more than the premium paid. Particulars may be obtained by application to the Rev. John Hunt, Secretary, 14 Brixton-rise, Surrey, who is to be seen at the Office, No. 7, Blomfield-strect, Finsbury, every Tuesday morning- from eleven till one o clock. WATCHES, CLOCKS, JEWELLERY, &c.
