( Secretary . ) Notwithstanding the existence of several Cab Companies , it is admitted , on all hands , that there is ample room for another . The Directors on that account have determined upon starting the Six Days Cab Company , to run at reduced fares and to abolish all Sunday traffic . The degree of success that has attended similar Associations proves that there is very little speculation in the objects of this Company . The following are among the advantages which this Company presents : — l 9 t . —To have first-rate Horses and Carriages , the latter to be provided with improved Indicators , by which it will be at once seen the distance travelled . 2 nd . —To abolish the Insult and Extortion now too prevalent , by employing men of known respectability of character , who will be provided with Livery Coats and Hats , and paid a regular weekly salary . 3 rd . —To afford their Servants the opportunity of moral and religious instruction , by entirely abolishing all Sunday Work , thereby constituting this , what the Title imports—viz ., a Six-Day Conveyance Company . 4 th . —To bring the luxury of Cabriolet riding within the reach of all classes by reducing the Fares to ( one half of the present legal charge ) 4 d . per mile , which , by the calculations subjoined , are clearly shown to be both possible and profitable . The following statement is submitted to the Public for consideration . It is calculated that each £ 1000 will purchase 10 Cabs , 20 Horses , and Harness complete . BKCEIPIS .

The Investment of Money with this Association secures equal advantages to the . Savings of the Provident , and the Capital of the Affluent , 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 offered almost exclusively to Life Assurance Companies , such as Eeversions , Life Interests , &c , enables the Board of Management to 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 isfioc 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 tho Oflices of tho Association . Immediate Annuities granted , and the business of Life Assurance in all its branches , transacted , on hig hly advantugeaus terms , Kates , Prospectuses , and Forms of Proposal , with every requisite information , may be obtained on application at tho ollices of tho Association , or to the respective Agents throughout the United Kingdom .
