Extract from, the London Medical Journal. ** C. J. B. Williams, M. D., F. R. S., Professor of Medicine in University College, London, Consult ing Physician to the Hospital for Consumption, &c., says: I have prescribed the Oil in above four hun dred cases of tuberculous disease of the Lungs, in different stages, which have been under my care the last two years and a half. In the large number of cases, 20G out of 234, its use was followed by marked and unequivocal improvement, varying in degree in different cases, from a temporary retarda tion of the progress of the disease and a mitigation of distressing symptoms, up to a more or less com plete restoration to apparent health. . “The effect of the Cod Liver Oil in most of these cases was very remarkable. Even in a few days the cough was mitigated, the expectoration dimin ished in quantity and opacity, the night sweats ceased, the pulse became slower, and of belter volume, and the appetite, flesh and strength were gradually improved. “In conclusion, I repeat that the pure fresh oil from the Liver of the Cod is more beneficial in the treatment of Pulmonary Consumption than any gent, medicinal, diatetic or regimenal, that has yet been employed.” _ f* 8 we have made arrangements to procure the Cod Liver (HI, fresh from head quarters, it can now be had chemically pure by the single bottle, or in boxes of one dozen each. 3 Its wonderful efficacy lias induced numerous spurious imitations. As its success depends en tirely upon its purity, too touch care Cannot be used in procuring it genuine. Every bottle having bn it our written signature, may be. depended upon as genuine.

This article has been known and extensively used in Europe for very many years, where it has, to a considerable extent, superseded the use of. Cologne Water.

We beg leave, however, to call public attention to the following letter, addressed to a citizen of this county by the superintendent of an extensive manu facturing establishment in Franklin county: Chambersbubg, April 28, 1849. Mr. Henry E. Leman:— Your favor of the 25th inst., is at hand, and in reply say that the Grind stones we run with Wortz’s wheel are from 5 to 6 feet high, 9 to 12 inches thick, weighing trom 3 to 5000 lbs. We formerly used an undershot wheel 12 feet wide and 14 feet high. Our head in an ordinary stage of the water is about 3 feet, 3 or 4 inches. Sometimes much less than that. With the old wheel we run two grindstones. In the same place we‘ have now four of Wortz’a wheels (3 36 and 1 40 inches,) running four grindstones and one trip hammer weighing about 80 lbs. with less water and doing more work in the same time. In regard to the quality of the wheel for the purpose of grinding, it is far superior to any I have ever used or seen used, and for a low head I believe it is the best wheel in use —during the whole winter (which has been unusually cold) we have not been affected at all with the ice, and in high water at a stage which would stop the old wheel entirely, we now find no inconvenience from back water. Any fur ther information on the subject I will be happy to communicate, or it you could make it convenient to visit Chamberaburg I will take great pleasure in showing you the wheels.

Make In urauce on Lives at their Office, in Philadelpha, and at thefr Agencies throughout the States, at the lowest rates of premium. Persons should insure their lives, and do so without delay, w;hilst the are healthy and fit subjects to be insured. In this Office there are advantages greater than have ever yet been derived from of Life Assurance; which reason and experience convinec the rrustees may with safety be offered to the It will be found, on inquiry,, that most offices have in the outset professed to act on some new principle; or to offer to assurers some one particular benefit not to be obtained from other societies.' But policies are effected under various circumstances, and with widely different objects, and what may facilitate the views of one man, af fords no accommodation to another. It appears, • therefore, to the Trustees of the Equitable, that the greatest good wijl be effected by that office, which allows such reasonable advantages to every assurer, as at the time of completing his Policy , he considers to be suitable terhis particular case. On this principle they act, and a few instances will suffice to show the benefits derivable from its adoption—the greatest good of the greatest number 1 No policy will be disputed, unless under an act of fraud by the assured, and after the same shall have been declared by referees of undoubted char acter. In case of error, either as to age, or in the form of policy, or the answers of referees, such errors, unless wilful and fraudulent, will not be deemed to vitiate the policy. The travelling leave is extensive and liberal. Persons insured for life have liberty to pass to and from the States of Virginia and Kentucky, and west of the river Mississippi, between the first -day of November and the first day of July following. And to pass from any place or port within the British North American Colonies, or United States north ol thirty-four degrees north latitude, without pay ing an extra premium. They are allowed to cross the Atlantic in first class steamers during May, June, July, August and September, free of charge; during remaining months of the year, 25 cents on each $lOO insured. The age of the assured will be admitted - on the policy. If the insured die in a duel, by his own hands, or under sentence of the law, such death will not invalidate the policy, except so far as it was the property of the deceased. Thirty days allowed after each annual payment becomes due, and fifteen days after each quarterly and half yearly premium becomes due; without for feiture of policy. Premiums or lapsed policies may be renewed at any time within six months on the production of satisfactory evidenco as to the health of the insured. D. MILLER. When a party effects a policy upon the life of hnother, the Company will be satisfied if the party aad, at the time, a bona fide interest in the life of the assured. The policy may be assigned to whom soever the assured pleases, without the knowledge or assent of the Company (there being no clause in the Equitable policies usual in the policies of Mu tual Companies, claiming a right to be notified of an assignment and their approval obtained) so long as-the assignment or transfer of a policy in the Equitable is a legal act, and the party who claims can give a legal discharge, the amount is paid by the Company. d The extraordinary advantage afforded by means of the Half Credit system, in'not requiring, under any circumstances, an outlay of a larger sum of money than is absolutely necessary to secure the amount insured, is peculiarly applicable to the creditor desirous of possessing a policy on the life his debtor. If the debt is paid off during these five years, he can discontinue the assurance alto gether, having secured the amount, in the event of the debtor’s death previously, at a lessexpense than would in any mutual office be charged for assuring the life for seven years. If the debt is not paid he would be enabled to continue the assurance for the remainder of the debtor’s life, whatever might then be his state of health. Attention is particulary re quested to the .

A deferred note is not neces sary to peifect any operation, and none will'be taken by the Company,- Persons insuring should bear in mind that a pro missory note given to a Mutual Office at com pound interest, soon amounts to more than the sum assured. Thus, $lOO per annum for 20 years at 6 per cent., would cause a deduction from the sum assured of three thousand six hundred BEVENTY-EIGHT DOLLARS AND FIFTY-FIVE -CENTS. The premiums of Mutual Assurance Companies being, as they profess, (though the Mutual offices ct do somehow” advertise guarantee capitals) free from the burdens of dividends to shareholders, should be very much lower, than those of stock companies; yet the Equitable is lower by six teen per cent, than any Mutual Office, and at the same rates of fremium charged by the “New York Life,” “The New York Mutual,” “ Albion,” “ Worcester Mutual,” “Connecticut Mutual,” “Pennsylvania,” ‘‘Girard,” *‘Penn,” “New England,” “Hartford,” “Baltimore Mu tual,” “Boston Mutual,” Bcc., &c., &c., in the Equitable the payments cease altogether after twenty-one years.

The premiums charged by the Mutual Offices are all on the highest scale, (and by their oten ad vertisements) much beyond what is requisite for the purpose of their business. Their “profits” can only? be realized, if ever realized at all, after a lapse of twenty years. The word Profits, therefore, is an abuse of the term, a WHOLLV CONTINGENT AND REMOTE PROMISE, for it is self-evident, and cannot for a moment be ques itioned, they must suffer loss by every insurer who dies before the amount paid by him in premiums , with the accumulated interest, shall be equal to the amount of his policy—nevertheless, in the Mu tual Offices the “ profits” (77?) are to be shared in by the representative, should the insured die im mediately after one or two payments. By the diminution of the premiums in the Equi table, THE GREATEST PRESENT BENEFIT IS SECURED to all persons assured by this company; whilst those who wish to participate in the profits can do so, by the purchase of the reserved shares, (first instalment, 10 dollars) which at all times afford a good and really profitable investment for capital, beside a vote for each share. This action the Trustees conceive must commend itself to the judg ment of every unbiassed inquirer , being based on the broad principle of equity; and securing to all the members, the advantages to which they are justly entitled by their actual payments; without opera ting to the peculiar benefit of old standing members, or placing recent entrants at a disadvantage—a combination presented by no other office than the Equitable Life Insurance Company. The actual Money Bonus given by the Equi table, saved, is upwards of 15 per cent., at the time of effecting the insurance; or in accordance with the Scrip Bonus of a Mutual office; the saving is equal to two hundred and fifty per cent. Profit Scrip (7). tables of .rates, lists of agents, obtained at the office, 74 Walnut Street, or from the agents throughout the United gtates.
