      THE above quotation is taken from a Work lately published , on " The Various Systems , &c , of the Woollen- Cloth Trade . " The immediate reference of this extract is to the JSeyr System recently introduced at the LONDON CLOTH ESTABLISHMENT by EDMUND DUDDEN AND CO . And in which the Writer shows that the Customers of Messrs . Dudden and Co . save from 30 to 50 per cent , on their purchases by adopting the New System . The fine STOCK of the London Cloth Establishment is known as one of the best in the Metropolis , from which any Lengths , even the shortest , are SOLD AT THE WHOLESALE PRICE . But , as an auxiliary to the Cloth Trade , Cutters of superior talent are engaged ; and Purchasers of Cloth , &c , may , if they wish , have it made up on the Premises , at the charge of . ^ THE W@R&M ) gNP 3 WAQES , Messrs . Dudden and Co . guaranteeing , not only the Quality of the Cloth , but also the Fit and Workmanship of every Garment . LONDON * CLOTH ESTABLISHMENT , 16 , COVENTEY STREET .

The Investment of Money with this Association secures equal advantages to the Savings of the Provident and the Capital of the Aillueut , and affords to both the means of realising the highest rate of Interest yielded by first-class securities , in which alone the Funds are employed . The constant demand for advances upon securities of that peculiar class , which are ottered almost exclusively to Life Assurance Companies , such as Reversions , Life Interests , &c , enables the Board of Management lo employ Capital on more advantageous terms and at higher rates of Interest than could otherwise , with equal safety , be obtained . 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 Ollices of the Association . Immediate Annuities granted , and the business of Life Assurance in all its branches , transacted , on highly advantageous terms .
