The present rate of Interest is Jive per cent , per annum , and this rate will continue to be paid so long as the Assurance department finds the same safe and profitable employment for money . Interest payable half-yearly in January and July . Money intended for Investment is received daily between the hours of 10 and 4 o ' clock , at the Offices of the Association .

      Just published , price 3 s ., by post free , npHE THREADS OF A STORM SAIL . J _ By W . BLANCHARD JERROLD . Written at the suggestion of the Directors of the Birkbeok Life Assurance Company . ¦ " In a very happy and very lively manner , through an allegory which is pretty in itself and sustained with much literary art , Mr . Jerrold has brought out the nature of Life Assurance , and the advantages which it offers to the humbler classes . In a style at once light and earnest , and with turns of thought and touches of poetry and humour that continually reminds us ot the name he bears , Mr . W . B . Jerrold traces the common lot of the working man in our large towns from the cradle to the grave ; and then , going briefly over the several philanthropic and benevolent schemes already before the public , ior tne amelioration of this ' common lot , ' he arrives , by a chain of reasoning , at the indisputable conclusion that these several schemes do not meet all the conditions of the case . " Athenceum , April 23 , 18 o 3 . "It is a very graceful literary effort , and succeeds in taking from the subject that dryness hitherto attached , and giving to it a pleasant , popular appearance . If there be any fault in the book , it is that it is too literary , too complete , as the nappy composition of a practised writer . " ' ., ¦ , „ , O £ rO — Civil Service Gazette , April 16 , . 1853 .
