PREFACE. 


That  the  want'  of  an  "  AYRSHmE  Directory  "  lias 
long  been  felt  in  Law-Courts,  Banks,  Public  Oinces — 
among  Factors,  Professional  Gentlemen,  xlgents,  Inn- 
keepers, Mercbants,  and  Dealers  througbout  the 
County — as  well  as  by  Strangers,  and  Professional  and 
Mercantile  Houses  in  Glasgow,  Edinburgh,  Liverpool, 
London,  and  other  Cities  having  intercourse  with  Ayr- 
shire, has  been  already  fully  proved  by  the  numerous 
Subscribers  to  this  Publication. 

Its  compilation  has  been  attended  with  much  more 
labour  and  expense  than  those  unacquainted  with  its 
details  might  suppose — the  Lists  for  the  Forty- six 
Parishes  having  been  prepared,  and  at  a  later  date 
revised,  in  each  Parish. 

The  Parishes  are  arranged  alphabetically. 


PREFACE. 

The  diiSculties  attending  a  first  attempt  at  present- 
ing so  very  full  a  List  of  the  Inhabitants  of  a  whole 
County,  are  pleaded  in  excuse  of  any  inaccuracies 
that  may  be  discovered. 

The  indication  of  the  Voters,  though  attempted  care- 
fully, had  better,  perhaps,  in  the  present  edition  have 
been  omitted,  as  the  Official  Registers  from  which  they 
are  taken  have  never  since  the  passing  of  the  Reform 
Bill  been  purged  of  "  dead,"  and  "absent";  while  at 
the  date  when  consulted,  this  year's  Electors  had  not 
been  added. 

Prefixed  to  the  Directory  are  Fifty-eight  pages  of 
County  Statistics,  Interest  Tables,  and  other  informa- 
tion valuable  for  reference;  and  Seventy  pages  of 
Advertisements  are  annexed.

and  so  on,  increasing  2d.  per  oz. 

There  is  no  limit  to  the  weight  of  paid  letters,  but  unpaid, 
letters  must  not  exceed  4  oz.,  unless  for  the  public  departments, 
and  no  inland  letter  must  exceed  24  inches  in  length. 

Stamps  may  be  used  to  pay  the  postage  on  foreign,  colonial,

care  must  be  taken  that  a  sufficient  number  are  put  on  the  letter

letter,  and  care  must  be  taken  to  see  that  they  adhere. 

Redirected  Lettkrs  are  liable  to  new  rates  of  postage, 
but  though  the  new  postage  should  not  be  paid  on  the  reposting 
of  the  letter,  it  will  be  charged  only  the  prepaid  rate  on  de- 
livery. 

Late  Letters,  posted  at  the  provincial  offices,  must  be  paid 
by  attaching  the  requisite  number  of  postage  stamps  tor  the 
postage  as  well  as  for  the  late  letter  fee,  and  are  in  time  if  put

tional  stamps  they  are  in  time  till  10  minutes  before  the  despatch 
of  each  mail. 

Letters,  when  once  posted,  cannot  be  given  back  upon  any 
pretence  whatever,  but  must  be  forwarded  to  the  person  to 
whom  they  are  addressed. 

Letters  containing  articles  of  a  perishable  or  dangerous 
nature  will  be  detained  as  soon  as  discovered. 

Letters  to  warm  climates  should  be  wafered,  not  sealed,  as  the 
wax  is  liable  to  be  melted,  to  the  injury  of  the  other  letters. 

Money  Orders. — An  order  from  any  one  Post-office  on  any 
other,  for  any  sum  not  exceeding  £2,  may  be  obtained  for  3d., 
and  for  a  sura  between  that  and  £5,  for  dd.  A  money  order 
must  be  presented  for  payment  before  the  end  of  the  second 
calendar  month  after  that  in  which  it  was  issued,  otherwise  a 
new  order  will  be  necessary,  for  which  a  second  commission 
must  be  paid ;  and  if  not  presented  before  the  end  of  the 
twelfth  month,  the  money  will  not  be  paid  at  all. 

Registration. — Any  letter  can  be  registered  on  payment 
of  a  registration  fee  of  6d.  The  postage  must  be  prepaid  in 
stamps,  except  the  letter  is  going  abroad,  when  it  may  be  pre- 
paid in  money  or  stamps,  but  the  registration  fee  of  6d.  is  in 
all  cases  to  be  paid  in  money.  Registered  letters  to  France  are 
charged  double  the  French  rate  of  postage,  in  addition  to  the 
6 d  registration  fee  ;  and  to  Prussia,  an  additional  charge  of  3d 
is  made;  letters  to  other  foreign  countries  and  the  colonies 
cannot  be  registered  farther  than  the  port  of  despatch.  Regis- 
tered letters  must  be  posted  half  an  hour  before  the  time  of  the 
box  closing  for  other  letters. 


NEWSPAPERS. 

Stamped  British  newspapers,  after  being  sanctioned  by  the 
Postmaster-General,  pass  free  from  one  place  to  any  other  place 
in  Great  Britain.  But  when  addressed  to  a  person  residing 
within  the  delivery  of  the  post-town  where  it  is  posted.  Id  is 
charged  on  each  paper.  British  and  colonial  newspapers  pass 
free  to  and  from  the  colonies  by  the  mail  packets — the  privi- 
lege includes  papers  to  and  from  the  East  Indies  by  the  South- 
ampton packets ;  and  if  sent  by  the  Monthly  Closed  Mails, 
via  Prance,  they  are  charged  3d,  and  must  be  prepaid.  When 
the  conveyance  is  by  private  ship,  the  postage  is  Id.  Foreign 
newspapers  received  in  Britain,  and  British  newspapers  sent  to 
foreign  countries,  are  liable  to  a  postage  of  2d,  unless  there  be  a 
reciprocity  treaty  with  the  foreign  Post-office,  when  they  pass 
free.  The  exemption,  however,  is  only  total  in  the  case  of 
Post-office  conveyances.  The  following  are  the  countries  to 
which  newspapers  are  forwarded  free ;  Altona,  Brazil,  Bremen,

Bolivia,  Buenos  Ayres,  Columbia,  Cuxhaven,  Denmark,  Equa* 
tor,  Greece,  Hamburg,  Hayti,  La  Guayra,  Lubeck,  New  Grana- 
da, Oldenburg,  Peru,  Spain,  and  Venezuela.  Newspapers 
from  and  to  France,  Prussia,  and  countries  through  Prussia, 
are  charged  ^d.  To  Holland  and  Hanover  the  charge  is  Id., 
Chili  4d.  Turkey,  Moldavia,  Wallachia,  the  Levant,  Egypt,

Austria,  if  sent  through  Prussia,  via  Ostend,  Hamburg,  or  Hol- 
land, are  charged  l^d.  Newspapers  from  Canada  through  the 
United  States  charged  Id.  Foreign  and  colonial  newspapers 
cannot  be  reposted,  after  having  been  read,  with  a  new  address, 
under  penalty  of  full  postage  charged  as  a  letter  ;  but  if  the 
person  to  whom  they  are  originally  addressed  has  removed  or 
left  the  place,  they  can,  if  not  read,  be  re-directed,  and  for- 
warded without  additional  charge.  All  newspapers  must  be 
without  covers,  or  in  covers  open  at  the  sides,  and  any  mark  or 
writing  is  allowed  to  be  put  on  newspapers  (passing  from  place  to 
place  in  the  United  Kingdom,  but  not  to  the  colonies  or  foreign 
parts),  if  a  penny  label  stamp  is  affixed  either  on  the  cover  or 
outside  of  the  newspaper  ;  but  no  writing  is  permitted,  other 
than  the  address,  on  the  cover,  nor  any  enclosure,  under  penal- 
ty of  it  being  charged  the  full  letter  rate  of  postage.  The 
name  and  address  of  the  newsvender  who  may  forward  the 
paper,  is  however  allowed  to  be  printed  upon  the  cover  with- 
out it  being  charged.  It  is  recommended  that  the  address  be 
written,  not  only  on  the  cover,  but  on  some  exposed  part  of  the 
newspaper.  All  newspapers  sent  out  of  the  kingdom  must  be 
posted  within  7  days  after  publication.

AYESHIRE 


Ayrshire  is  in  extent  56  miles  in  length,  by  26  in  breadth, 
containing  1600  square  miles,  divided  into  46  Parishes.  The 
Population  in  1831  was  145,055 ;  in  1841,  164,356  ;  and  in 
1851,  189,210.  The  Parliamentary  Constituency  is  about  4,300, 
being  the  largest  in  Scotland.  It  is  divided  into  three  dis- 
tricts— Bailiaries,  vphose  separate  jurisdictions  were  annulled, 
by  statute,  in  1748 — Cuninghame,  north  ;  Kyle,  in  the  centre  ; 
and  Carrick,  south.  Renfrewshire  bounds  Ayrshire  on  the 
north,  from  Largs  to  Loudoun  Parishes :  the  Counties  of 
Lanark  and  Dumfries  on  the  east,  from  Loudoun  to  the 
southernmost  point  of  the  Parish  of  New  Cumnock  :  the 
Stewartry  of  Kirkcubright  thence  on  the  south  to  the  S.E.  point 
of  Colmonell :  and  Wigtownshire  on  the  south  to  the  sea.  The 
west  side  of  Ayrshire,  which  forms  a  crescent,  about  75  miles 
long,  is  bounded  by  the  Firth  of  Clyde.  Irvine  Water  separates 
Cuninghame  from  Kyle  ;  and  the  River  Doon  Kyle  from  Carrick. 
Ayrshire,  which  among  the  Counties  of  Scotland  ranks  next  to 
Aberdeenshire  in  population,  has  acquired  no  small  portion  of  its' 
widely-spread  fame  as  the  land  of  Bruce,  Wallace,  and  Burns. 
Of  late  years,  it  has  risen  greatly  in  importance,  from  the  rapid 
increase  of  its  manufactures  and  shipping,  its  improvements  in 
agriculture,  and  the  valuable  fields  of  iron  and  lead,  with 
which  in  addition  to  coal  and  lime,  it  abounds.  The  num- 
ber of  contested  elections  in  Ayrshire,  since  1832,  has  also 
been  a  mean  of  bringing  it  from  time  to  time  under  the  eye  of  the 
nation.  It  is  made  prominent  every  five  years  by  the  Caledonian 
Hunt  at  Ayr  ;  annually  by  the  Western  Meeting  at  Ayr, 
in  September  or  October  ;  and  by  the  Eglinton  Park  Meetings 
at  Irvine.  Perhaps  in  this  enumeration  we  ought  not  to  omit 
mention  of  the  Eglinton  Tournament  in  September,  1839,  which 
we  can  well  believe  attracted  thousands  of  strangers  to  Ayrshire 
who  otherwise  might  never  have  made  the  pilgrimage.  The 
formation  of  the  Glasgow  and  Ayrshire  Railway  has  also  exercis- 
ed a  powerful  influence  in  giving  prominence  to  Ayrshire ;  and 
now  that  the  Glasgow,  Dumfries,  &  Carlisle  Railway  is  opened, 
a  communication  from  the  South  is  established,  the  importance 
of  which  is  daily  becoming  more  appreciated,  while  the  traffic 
at  the  Port  of  Ayr,  and  other  harbours  along  the  coast,  will  be 
vastly  increased,  as  they  afford  ready  outlets  for  the  inexhaus- 
tible mineral  resourses  of  the  rich  districts  through  which  it  i» 
proposed  that  the  projected  line  shall  pass.

AYR. 


Ayr,  the  County  Town,  and  a  Royal  Burgh,  obtained  its  Charter 
from  William  the  Lion,  about  the  year  1206.  The  River  Ayr 
divides  it  from  Newton  and  Wallacetown.  Ayr  proper  con- 
tains only  about  10,000  inhabitants;  but,  in  speaking  of  its  Popu- 
lation it  is  generally  taken  in  conjunction  with  Newton  and 
Wallacetown,  shewing  an  aggregate  of  about  22,000.  In  the 
Charter  of  erection  the  name  of  the  Town,  derived  evidently 
from  that  of  the  River,  is  written  Ar,  with  a  dash  through  the 
r — indicating  the  true  orthography  Are.  The  corruption  of 
introducing  i  first  occurs  in  the  records  of  the  neighbouring 
Burgh  of  Prestwick,  where  the  word  is  written  Aire.  In  the 
old  records  of  the  burgh  of  Ayr,  we  find,  for  several  years,  Ayre, 
latterly  superseded  by  Aire.  In  the  iSth  Century  the  e  was 
dropped,  and  in  process  of  time  the  i  gave  place  to  y,  and  the 
present  spelling  Ayr  is  now  almost  universal.  Partaking  more 
of  the  Professional  than  Commercial  character — with  a  Seminary 
long  famed  for  the  Education  of  youth — a  fine  climate — situate 
in  a  bay,  said  to  be  second  only  to  that  of  Naples — a  beautiful 
Sea  beach — moderate  rents — excellent  Hotels — famous  for  its 
Races — the  returning  Parliamentary  Burgh  of  the  District — a 
Circuit  Station  of  the  Justiciary  Court — a  Synod  and  Presby- 
tery Seat — with  every  grade  of  Society  from  the  peer  to  the 
peasant,  within  its  bounds — and  with  the  Scenery  in  its  neigh- 
bourhood, immortalized  by  Burns — it  has  for  a  great  many 
years  been  a  favourite  resort  for  families,  and  individuals  having 
the  charge  of  youth;  for  Invalids  ;  for  Gentlemen  of  the  Naval

and  Military  Professions  ;  for  natives  who  have  amassed  wealth 
abroad,  and  for  others  who  have  been  fortunate  enough  to  be 
able  to  retire  from  business  at  home.  If  Ayr  had  attractions 
of  old,  these  have  been  greatly  increased  of  late.  Indeed,  we 
may  safely  assert,  that  no  town  in  Scotland,  of  the  same  extent, 
has,  within  the  last  few  years,  undergone  so  much  improvement 
in  every  respect.  Elegant  and  costly  public  and  private  Build- 
ings have  been  erected  in  the  Town — the  Vicinity  has  been 
studded  with  handsome  villas — the  improvement  of  the  Harbour 
has  been  attended  with  a  great  increase  of  Shipping — we  have 
one  Carpet  Manufactory,  where  employment  is  given  to.  about 
200  of  the  Operative  classes — the  Town  and  neighbourhood  are 
well  lighted  with  gas  by  two  Companies — one  spirited  Company 
has  supplied  the  Town  with  water — and  another  has  erected 
Public  Baths — and  the  Glasgow  and  Ayrshire  Hallway  has 
brought  us,  if  we  may  use  the  expression,  within  a  couple  of 
hours  of  the  Western  Metropolis,  while  the  South- Western  line 
has  regularly  opened  up  a  communication  from  Ayr,  by  Dum- 
fries, to  England,  of  which  we  have  only  yet  begun  to  experience 
the  advantage. 

THE    RIVER   AYR   AND   "  THE    TWA   BRIGS." 

Arrived  at  the  Railway  Station  at  Ayr,  the  object  nearest  the 
Traveller,  is  the  River  Ayr,  about  thirty  miles  long,  the  source 
of  which  is  on  the  border  of  the  County,  at  the  eastern  extremity 
of  the  parish  of  Muirkirk.  Its  course,  after  it  leaves  the  hills, 
is  remarkable  for  richness  and  variety  of  scenery.  It  abounds 
with  trout,  and  yielded  salmon  plentifully,  till  the  erection,  in 
1700,  of  a  high  dam-dyke  at  the  Town's  Mills  obstructed  their 
passage  up  the  river.  About  fifty  yards  from  the  Station,  is 
the  New  Bridge,  and  about  200  yards  up  the  river  the  "  Auld 
Brig,"  which  boasted  it  would  be  in  existence  when  its  more 
modern  neighbour  was  "a  cairn  o'  stanes"  :  and  very  nearly, 
had  the  taunt  proved  true  ;  as  the  New  Bridge  having  be- 
come too  narrow  for  the  convenience  of  the  Public,  the  Com- 
missioners obtained  an  Act  of  Parliament  to  widen  it,  which 
was  accordingly  done  in  1840.  This  Bridge  was  built  in  1778, 
and  cost  about  £4000.  The  old  bridge  was  built  in  the  reign 
of  Alexander  III  (1249-1285),  by  Isobel  Lowe  and  her  sister, 
two  maiden  ladies,  who,  tradition  states,  spent  their  fortunes  on 
the  undertaking.  In  this  they  are  said  to  have  been  actuated 
by  the  philanthropic  desire  to  prevent  the  loss  of  life  to  the 
inhabitants  occasionally  sustained  from  crossing  by  a  ford  about 
200  yards  up  the  river. 

town's  buildings — OLD  AND  NEW; 

Fronting  the  visiter,  as  he  crosses  the  bridge  to  Ayr,  is  Sand- 
gate  Street,  in  the  centre  of  which,  till  1825,  stood  the  Town's 
Buildings,  consisting  of  Council  Room,  Jail,  and  Steeple.     At 


the  date  above  mentioned  they  were  removed  to  allow  the  inhS" 
bitants  the  use  of  the  street,  at  its  full  width  ;  and  at  the  corner 
site  near  the  Malt  Cross  other  buildings  more  elegant  and  com- 
modious were  erected,  with  a  Steeple  the  highest  we  believe  in 
Scotland,  being  about  226  feet.  The  buildings,  which  are  in 
the  Grecian  style,  and  of  the  composite  order,  were  designed  by 
Mr  Hamilton,  architect,  Edinburgh,  were  founded  on  28tll 
March,  1828,  and  cost  about  £10,000.  Though  the  situation  is 
low,  the  spire  can  be  seen  for  many  miles  around  Ayr.  The 
public  rooms  consist  of  a  spacious  News  Room,  well  furnished 
with  newspapers  and  periodicals,  a  Ball  Eoom,  47|  feet  long  by 
26^  broad,  and  ante-rooms  to  each,  so  constructed  that  the  whole 
can  be  thrown  into  one  suite  of  apartments.  The  Spire,  which 
is  a  great  ornament  to  the  town,  was  struck  by  lightning  in 
the  winter  of  1835,  which  dislodged  two  stones  near  its  summit, 
but  fortunately  did  no  farther  damage.  The  injured  spot  was 
repaired  in  the  following  summer.  The  bell  in  the  spire,  weight 
22  cwt.,  which  is  remarkable  for  its  fine  tone,  is  heard  at  a 
great  distance. 

WELLINGTON  SQUARE,  AND  COUNTY  BUILDINGS. 

Wellington  Square,  which  usually  attracts  the  attention  of 
strangers,  is  of  modern  formation.  The  houses,  in  many  in- 
stances, are  occupied  by  the  proprietors,  and  where  otherwise, 
rents  range  from  £40  to  £70.  The  feu  paid  to  the  town  is  3s. 
per  fall  on  the  South  side,  and  6s.  on  the  North.  The  North- 
west side  of  the  Square  is  formed  by  the  County  Buildings, 
These  are  the  most  extensive  buildings  in  Ayrshire  ;  containing 
Court-house,  County  Hall,  or  Assembly  Room,  and  commodious 
chambers  for  officials  connected  with  the  Law  Courts  and  Burgh. 
There  are  in  the  County  Hall  portraits  of  the  late  Earl  of 
Eglinton,  Lord-Lieutenant  of  the  County,  in  the  costume  of 
Colonel  of  the  Lowland  Eencibles  ;  of  his  Lordship's  brother- 
in-law,  the  late  John  Hamilton  of  Sundrura  (grandfather  of  the 
present  proprietor  of  Sundrum),  and  for  forty  years  Convener 
of  the  County ;  and  of  the  late  venerable  Earl  of  Glasgow, 
Lord-Lieutenant  of  Ayrshire.  In  the  rear,  enclosed  by  a  high 
wall,  is  the  Prison,  where  the  new  system  of  discipline  has  been 
very  successfully  introduced.  The  buildings  were  finished  in 
1822,  and  cost  upwards  of  £30,000  ;  and  they  are  now  being 
enlarged  by  an  extensive  addition  to  the  Prison. 

WALLACE    TOWER. 

This  Gothic  building  on  High  Street,  seen  from  a  considera- 
ble distance,  from  the  summit  of  which  a  fine  view  is  obtained, 
was  finished  in  1832.  It  was  designed  by  Mr.  Hamilton,  and 
cost  about  £1400.  It  stands  on  the  site  of  an  old  tower,  taken 
down  in  1830,  of  which  the  public  records  bear  no  account,  but 
which  has  always  been  associated  with  the  name  of  Sir  William 


lii 

Wallace.  A  statue  of  the  renowned  chief,  cut  by  Thorn,  the 
famed  sculptor  of  "  Tam  o'  Shanter  and  Souter  Johnny,"  occu- 
pies a  niche  in  front  of  the  new  edifice.  The  Scottish  patriot  is 
represented,  not  in  warlike  attitude,  but  in  a  thoughtful  mood, 
as  if  musing  on  the  wrongs  of  his  country.  The  attitude  and 
outline  have  been  censured  by  some  critics,  and  praised  by 
others;  but  the  workmanship  has,  at  all  hands,  been  held  to 
be  exquisite.  The  cost  of  the  statue  was  120  guineas,  and  the 
money  was  subscribed  in  a  fortnight,  chiefly  through  the  exer- 
tions of  Mr  Auld,  Doonbrae  Cottage  (Thorn's  chief  patron).  A 
figure  of  less  pretension  and  rather  dwarfish,  cut  by  Mr  Reid 
of  Glasgow,  was  placed  in  a  niche  in  the  gable  of  the  corner 
house,  east  end  of  Newmarket  Street,  in  1810,  by  Henry  Cowan, 
Esq.  Mr  Cowan  put  up  this  statue  to  replace  an  old  repre- 
sentation of  the  head  of  Wallace  in  the  same  situation,  which 
had  fallen  into  decay.  This  effigy  was  originally  erected  there 
to  commemorate  the  sheltering  of  Wallace  from  his  enemies 
under  that  roof. 

THE  FORT,  ST.  JOHN'S  CHURCH,  &C. 

Passing  from  Wellington  Square  towards  the  river,  the  visiter 
casts  his  eye  upon  an  old  Tower  to  his  left,  in  a  pasture- 
field  of  18  acres.  The  Tower  is  a  venerable  relict  of  the  Burgh 
or  Parish  Church,  founded  in  the  twelfth  century,  and  dedicated 
to  St.  John  the  Baptist.  The  church  itself  was  built  in  the 
form  of  a  cross  ;  and,  at  the  eastern  end  of  the  transept,  had  an 
elegant  and  richly-ornamented  Gothic  window.  In  1560,  it  fell 
into  the  hands  of  the  Reformed  Clergy,  of  whom  was  the  Rev. 
John  Welsh,  of  much  respected  memory,  son-in-law  of  John 
Knox,  the  Reformer.  In  1652  Oliver  Cromwell,  coveting  the 
situation  of  the  ground  around  the  Church,  protected  on  the 
north-west  by  the  river  Doon,  which  then  (as  elsewhere  ex- 
plained) flowed  close  past  it,  and  on  the  south-west  by  the  sea, 
which  has  since  greatly  receded — took  possession  of  it,  turning 
the  church  into  an  armoury,  and  erecting  around  it  a  strong 
fortified  citadel.  The  ground  plan  is  in  the  form  of  a  hexagon, 
but  the  figures  are  irregular.  The  main  bastion,  occupying  the 
north-eastern  angle,  close  upon  the  harbour,  and  next  the  town, 
has  a  commanding  position,  and  is  supposed  to  occupy  the  site 
of  the  ancient  palace  and  castle  of  Ayr,  built  by  William  the 
Lion.  The  tower  had  originally  two  triangular  gables,  which 
the  St.  John's  Lodge  of  Freemasons  in  Ayr  removed,  substitu- 
ting the  present  turrets.  This  spacious  enclosure  belongs  to 
the  Marquis  of  Ailsa,  and  of  late  years  has  been  advertised  for 
sale.  Some  public  spirited  individuals  have  suggested  the  idea 
of  purchasing  it,  and  laying  it  out  as  public  walks  and  gardens 
to  ornament  the  town,  and  afford  a  place  of  recreation  and 
amusement  for  the  inhabitants  ;  and  it  has  been  thought  that 


.  liii 

the  expense  of  its  cultivation  might  be  defrayed  by  the  sale  of 
annual  tickets  for  families,  and  by  a  small  charge  for  admission 
to  Promenades,  Soirees,  and  Musical  Entertainments,  in  the 
summer  evenings. 

BURGH  OR  PARISH  CHURCH  OF  AYR. 

Cromwell,  though  not  very  ceremonious  in  the  acquisition  of 
St.  John's  Church  and  grounds,  made  some  compensation  to  the 
Burgh  in  money  (£160),  which  aided  in  the  erection  of  the 
present  Old  Church  of  Ayr,  on  the  site  of  the  Franciscan  monas- 
tery, founded  by  the  Bishop  of  St.  Andrews ;  the  only  trace  of 
which,  at  the  present  day,  is  in  the  name  of  a  spring  called  the 
Friars'  Well,  which  issues  from  the  wall  of  the  Old  Church- 
yard, into  the  river  Ayr.  The  galleries,  and  for  the  most  part 
the  seats  of  the  Old  Church,  are  those  placed  in  it  when  origin- 
ally erected  in  1654  ;  but  it  has  been  recently  repaired,  heated 
with  water  pipes,  lighted  with  gas,  and  made  otherwise  very 
comfortable.  The  floor  is  yet,  however,  below  the  level  of  the 
graves  outside. 

Ayr  has  been  a  collegiate  charge  since  the  days  of  Queen 
Mary  ;  and  on  its  junction  with  Alloway,  about  the  end  of  the 
17  th  century,  the  stipend,  £32,  was  divided  equally  between 
the  two  ministers  of  Ayr.  The  stipend  of  the  first  charge,  held 
by  the  Rev.  Dr.  x\uld,  is  8|  chalders,  half  meal  and  half  here, 
and  one  chalder  for  Communion  Elements,  with  the  half  of  the 
£32  from  Allowav,  already  mentioned,  and  the  half  of  the 
interest  of  £1,000  bequeathed  to  the  two  Ayr  ministers,  by  John 
Fergusson,  Esq.,  of  Doonholm.  To  this  charge  is  also  attached 
a  handsome  manse  with  glebe,  situate  in  the  suburLs,  on  the 
Dalmellington  road. 

NEW  CHURCH. 

The  church  of  the  second  charge — a  modern  building,  is 
situate  close  to  the  entrance  to  the  Fort.  The  Rev.  Alexander 
Cuthill,  minister  of  the  second  charge,  accepted  as  his  assistant 
and  successor,  the  Rev.  \Tilliam  Shaw,  formerly  in  Bonhill, 
whose  emoluments  are  secured  by  arrangement  entered  into 
between  tlie  Rev.  Mr  Cuthill  and  the  Patrons,  the  Magistrates, 
and  Kirk  Session.  The  stipend  of  the  second  minister  consists 
partly  of  the  old  stipend  of  the  second  charge— of  a  sum  from 
the  Exchequer — of  an  allowance  from  the  Magistrates  for  extra 
service — of  the  half  of  the  interest  of  Mr  Fergusson's  donation 
of  £1,000,  and  of  £46  13s  4d  in  lieu  of  a  manse  and  glebe. 

MONASTERIES. 

Besides  the  Monastery  already  alluded  to,  of  the  Order  of 
St.  Francis,  or  Grey  Friars,  founded  by  the  inhabitants  of  Ayr, 
in  1472,  on  the  site  of  which  the  Old  Church  of  Ayr  stands,  there 
was,  in  the  same  vicinity,  near  Mill  Street,  a  Monastery  of  Do- 


llT 

aainicans^or  Black  Friars,  the  first  of  that  order  established  in 
Scotland,  founded  by  the  Bishop  of  St.  Andrews,  in  1230.  The 
charter  granted  by  Alexander  II.  was  dated  at  Forfar,  in  1242, 
and  confirmed  by  Robert  Bruce  at  Girvan,  in  the  33d  year  of 
his  reign.  The  ruins  of  both  these  religious  establishments  have 
BOW  disappeared. 

MALT    CROSS. 

The  Malt  Cross  of  Ayr,  where  all  proclamations  were  made^ 
stood  opposite  Dr.  Whiteside's  property,  where  New-Bridge 
Street  meets  High  Street.  It  was  removed  when  the  New 
Bridge  was  built  in  1778.  Coins  of  Charles  II.,  found  at  ita 
base,  indicate  its  having  been  erected  during  his  reign.  Here 
Maggie  Osburne,  "  the  Ayrshire  Witch  " — a  young  woman  said 
to  have  possessed  considerable  personal  charms,  and  some  pro- 
perty, and  who  lived  in  that  house,  now  No.  76,  High  Street, 
aearly  opposite  the  Fish  Cross,  suffered  about  the  end  of  the  16th 
century.  Being  eccentric,  she  was  suspected  to  be  in  league 
with  Satan  —  chiefly  in  reference  to  having  built  her  house  in  a 
very  expeditious  manner — and  was  tried,  condemned,  and 
burned  at  the  Stake,  on  a  mound  at  the  west  end  of  the  Town's 
Low  Green.  This,  fortunately,  was  the  last  scene  of  the  kind 
witnessed  in  Scotland.  In  England  the  penal  statutes  against 
witchcraft  were  not  abrogated  by  the  legislature  till  the  middle 
of  the  18th  century,  about  the  year  1752  ;  and  it  is  a  singular 
coincidence,  that  the  last  victim  in  England  was  also  a  female,, 
named  "  Osbourne ;"  an  aged  pauper,  who  was  killed  by  a  mob 
in  Staffordshire,  in  1750.  Her  husband  narrowly  escaped  with 
his  life.  Barrington  estimates  the  number  of  persons  put  tO' 
death  in  England  on  the  charge  of  witchcraft,  at  30,000  ! 

HARBOUR  OF  AYR. 

The  Harbour  of  Ayr,  like  all  others  formed  at  the  mouths  of 
rivers,  is  not  easily  kept  deep,  from  the  alluvial  matter  brought 
down  during  the  floods,  and  deposited  at  its  bar.  This  draw-back 
has  been,  in  great  part,  removed  within  the  last  few  years,  by 
walls  on  either  side,  a  breakwater  thrown  across  the  north  side  of 
the  river,  and  the  operations  of  a  Steam  Dredge,andDivingBel], 
The  chief  woi'ks  at  the  Harbour  are  Messrs  Sloan  and  Gemmell's 
Patent  Slip  ;;nd  Building  Yard,  on  the  north  side,  and  Mr 
Paton's  Patent  Saw  Mills,  Bone  Mill,  and  Stone  Sawing  Ap- 
paratus, &c.,  on  the  south.  A  very  suitable  new  Light'iouse 
has  lately  been  erected,  on  the  North  side  of  the  river,  which, 
from  its  height  and  the  brilliancy  of  its  gas-lights,  affords  a 
certain  guide  to  mariners.  From  the  point  of  the  South  Pier, 
there  is  a  fine  view  of  the  Bay  of  Ayr,  stretching  from  the 
Kyles  of  Bute  to  the  Heads  of  Ayr  ;  and  in  very  clear  weather 
the  north-east  coast  of  Ireland  may  be  discerned.

NEWTON  AND   WALLACETOWN 

Are  divided  from  the  town  of  Ayr  proper,  by  the  river  Ayr. 
The  latest  burgh  charters  of  Newton  bear  date  1595  and  1600, 
but  refer  to  older  charters  that  have  not  been  preserved.  Tra- 
dition assigns  the  original  charter  to  the  year  1315,  as  having 
been  then  granted  by  King  Robert  the  Bruce.  The  land  was 
originally  divided  equally  amoog  48  freemen  (10  or  12  acres 
each),  subject  to  periodical  allotment  every  ele\en,  and  later, 
every  seven  years ;  but,  in  January  1829,  the  holdings  were  de- 
clared by  agreement  to  be  999  years,  so  as  to  encourage  the 
improvement  of  the  land.  Newton  has  a  jurisdiction  separate 
from  that  of  Ayr. 

Wallacetown,  though  a  quoad  sacra  parish,  is  in  the  parish 
of  St.  Evox.  It  is  not  embraced  within  the  jurisdiction  of  either 
Ayr  or  Newton,  and  has  no  local  magistrates  or  police.  A  large 
proportion  of  the  population  are  coal  miners  or  weavers.  Inde- 
pendent of  its  anomalous  position,  its  buildings  have  been 
much  improved  of  late,  particularly  fronting  the  river  Ayr. 

THE  PARISH  OF  ST.  EVOX, 

Which  includes  Wallacetown,  lies  NE.  of  Ayr.  Population— 
In  1831,  5348  ;  1841,  6055  ;  1851,  7146.  Increase  since  1831, 
1798.  JExtent— The  parish  contains  5000  acres,  and  is  five 
miles  long,  and  three  broad.  Boundaries— It  is  bounded  on  the 
south  by  the  river  Ayr  ;  and  on  the  east,  north,  and  west,  by 
the  parishes  of  Tarbolton,  Monkton,  and  Newton.  Character- 
la  1831,  the  agricultural  population  was  1071,  Wallacetown 
and  Content  containing  4277  souls.  The  inhabitants  of  the  two 
latter  places,  and  of  Whitletts,  belong  chiefly  to  the  poorer  class 
of  Irish  settlers,  and  are  employed  as  colliers,  labourers,  and 
weavers  by  Glasgow  and  Paisley  houses.  There  are  also  a  num= 


Iviii 

"ber  of  artisans,  carters,  publicans,  and  shop-keepers,  with  an 
undue  proportion  of  strangers  frona  Ireland,  who  keep  lodging- 
houses,  or  have  means  of  subsistence  equally  precarious.  Hus- 
bandry is  in  a  flourishing  state,  and  the  land  is  in  possession  of 
an  intelligent  and  industrious  tenantry.  There  are  several  ex- 
cellent freestone  quarries  in  the  parish.  Markets,  ^c. — Ayr 
serves  as  a  convenient  market  town,  whose  Fairs  are  common 
to  Newton  and  St.  Evox  parishes.

IRVINE. 

f  Irvine— Town  distant  12  miles  from  Ayr,  and  7  miles  from  Kilmarnock.! 

Irvine,  which  is  a  Eoyal  Burgh,  lies  3  miles  from  Kilwinning, 
which  bounds  it  on  the  west ;  7  miles  north-west  of  Kilmarnock  ; 
and  12  miles  north  of  Ayr.  Boundaries — On  the  east  and  south- 
east it  is  divided  from  the  parish  of  Dreghorn  by  the  river 
Annick  ;  on  the  west  it  is  bounded  by  the  Garnock,  which  di- 
vides it  from  Kilwinning ;  on  the  south  by  the  river  Irvine, 
which  separates  it  from  Dundonald  parish ;  and  on  the  north 
by  the  parish  of  Stewarton.  Extent — The  land  in  the  parish 
of  Irvine  extends  to  2914  acres  of  arable,  and  3673  acres  of 
wood.  The  parish  is  upwards  of  4  miles  in  length,  and  where 
its  width  is  greatest  it  is  nearly  two  miles  broad.  Population — 
In  1831,  5200;  1841,5214;  1851,  5665.  Increase  since  1831, 
465.  Character — Agriculture  is  prosecuted  in  the  parish,  and 
upwards  of  a  hundred  of  the  population,  male  and  female,  are 
engaged  in  the  cultivation  of  the  soil.  The  townspeople,  in- 
cluding the  inhabitants  of  Fullarton  (which  is  joined  with  Ir- 
vine in  the  Parliamentary  Burgh),  are  chiefly  employed  in 
handloom  weaving — the  work  being  supplied  to  a  great  extent 
by  Glasgow  and  Paisley  houses.  The  females  are  principally 
occupied  in  hand-sewing.  Many  of  the  inhabitants  of  Irvine  are 
people  who  have  retired  from  business,  or  from  the  naval  and 
military  services.  Being  the  capital  of  a  rich  agricultural  dis- 
trict, and  itself  the  most  ancient  of  the  Western  ports,  it  is  the 
seat  of  considerable  business.  The  Academy  has  earned  a  well 
merited  celebrity  as  an  educational  institution,  and  the  teachers 
are,  to  a  certain  extent,  salaried  from  the  funds  of  the  burgh. 
This  forms  one  of  the  inducements  for  respectable  families  from 
a  distance  settling  down  in  the  locality.  Markets,  Sfc. — The  fol- 
io wing  fairs  are  held  in  Irvine: — January,  horses,  1st  Wednes- 
day; May,  cattle,  1st  Tuesday;  July,  horses  and  cattle,  Wed- 
nesday before  Ayr  ;  August,  lint  and  wool,  3d  Monday — horses, 
Wednesday  after.

KILIVIARNOCK. 

(Kilmarnock — distant  12  miles  from  Ayr.) 

Kilmarnock  is  situated  on  the  banks  of  the  water  of  the  same; 
name,  a  short  distance  above  its  union  with  the  river  Irvine. 
It  is  the  most  populous  and  most  rapidly-increasing  town  in 
Ayrshire.  The  name  is  derived  from  St.  Mernock  or  Mar- 
nock,  who  lived  about  the  beginning  of  the  fourth  century, 
but  of  whom  nothing  is  known.  It  does  not  appear  in 
public  documents  till  the  fourteenth  century,  when  it  is 
mentioned  in  connexion  with  the  Boyds  of  Dean  :  and  even  then 
Kilmarnock  appears  to  have  been  a  place  of  little  note,  the 
name  being  applied  apparently  to  a  tract  of  land  rather  than  to 
a  particular  place.  In  fact,  Kilmarnock  was  a  mere  hamlet  in 
the  days  of  James  VI.,  its  people  entirely  dependent  upon  their 
feudal  superiors — the  lords  of  the  neighbouring  Dean  Castle. 
The  favourable  situation  of  the  town,  and  the  rich  resources  of 
the  district,  combined  to  increase  its  importance.  In  1591, 
James  YL  constituted  Kilmarnock  a  free  burgh  of  barony, 
Charles  IL  confirming  the  constitution  in  1672,  In  earlier 
times  the  population  were  principally  employed  in  manufactur- 
ing "  braid  bonnets  "  and  "  cowls."  This  trade  flourished  till  the 
middle  of  the  eighteenth  century,  when  the  weaving  of  carpets 
became  the  chief  business  of  the  place.  Tlie  trades  of  the  town 
at  this  time  received  several  accessions,  and  the  busy  village 
became  busier  than  ever.  The  extinction  of  the  feudal  domi- 
nation of  the  Boyds,  by  whom  the  burgh  had  been  kept  in 
subjection,  and  its  sources  of  wealth  contracted ;  the  forma- 
tion of  good  roads ;  and  the  Union,  produced  a  vast  and 
acceptable  change.  The  opening  of  the  present  century  saw 
m&ny  improvements  effected  in  Kilmarnock.  Calico  printing 
was  introduced,  Handloom  weaving  assumed  a  more  promi- 
nent position  among  the  local  trades.  Greater  facilities  of 
conveyance  did  much  to  extend  the  general  business  of  the 
town.  A  tramway  was  formed  to  the  seaport  of  Troon — the  first 
of  the  kind  constructed  in  Scotland ;  new  buildings  were  erected; 
the  streets,  formerly  narrow,  were  widened — famed  for  their  irre- 
gularity in  former  days,  they  were  made  more  uniform — and 
otherwise  ext^ended  and  improved.  The  breadth  of  the  town 
scarcely  corresponds  with  its  length  ;  nevertheless  it  has  a  fine 
appearance,  favoured  by  its  position  in  a  fertile  basin,  shel- 
tered by  softlj'^-ascending  uplands.  Kilmarnock  claims  to  be 
the  commercial  capital  of  the  county,  and  is  to  Ayr  what  Glas- 
gow is  to  Edinburgh — the  one  the  seat  of  fashion,  learning,  and 
law;  the  other  the  busy  scene  of  manufactures  and  commer-

cial  traffic.  Kilmarnock  and  its  trade  have  steadily  increased 
of  late  years.  In  1840  it  was  connected  by  railway  with 
Glasgow,  Paisley,  and  the  harbours  on  tiie  West  coast. 
Daring  the  last  ten  years,  we  have  witnessed  the  Iron  Way 
intersecting  the  entire  district — passing  up,  the  fertile  valley 
of  the  Irvine,  studded  with  busy  villages ;  prosecuting  its 
course  to  the  classic  braes  of  the  Ayr  and  Lugar  ;  penetrating 
the  rich  mineral  districts  around  Cumnock  and  Muirkirk  ;  sup- 
planting the  antiquated  tramway  to  Troon  ;  extending  the 
Glasgow  and  South- Western  to  Carlisle;  and  thus  making 
Kilmarnock  one  of  the  chief  links  in  the  chain  connecting 
the  West  Country  with  England.  Kilmarnock  is  improving, 
too,  in  he.r  educational,  musical,  and  literary  institutions. 


Population  of  Kilmarnock  in  1792—6776 

1831—18,093 
1841—19,956 
1851—21,281 
This  burgh,  with  Rutherglen,  Port-Glasgow,  and  Dumbar- 
ton, returns  one  member  to  Parliament.     Kilmarnock  is  the 
returning  Burgh.

R  I  CC  ARTO  N. 

[Riecartoa  village— distant  11  miles  from  Ayr,  and  1  mile  from  Kilmarnock.] 

EicoARTON  is  divided  from  the  town  of  Kilmarnock  by  the 
rirer  Irvine.  Population— In  1831,  2499;  1841,  3226;  1851, 
4582.  Increase  since  1831,  2083.  Extent— The  length  of  the 
parish,  from  east  to  west,  is  about  8  miles,  and  its  greatest 
breadth  about  3  miles.  Boundaries — It  is  bounded  on  the  north 
b>  the  river  Irvine,  which  separates  it  from  Kilmarnock ;  on 
the  south  by  Craigie,  Mauchline,  and  Galston  ;  on  the  east  by 
Galston  ;  and  on  the  west  by  Symington  and  Dundonald. 
Character— In  1831,  with  a  population  of  2499,  193  males  were 
engaged  in  agriculture,  and  283  in  handicrafts  and  in  retail 
trade.  The  parish  is  rich  in  coal,  and  to  the  opening  of  new  pits 
and  iron-works  may  be  attributed  the  increase  in  the  population. 
The  Caprington  coal  is  in  great  repute  for  household  use. 
There  are  two  villages  besides  Eiccarton  in  the  parish — viz,, 
Hurlford  and  Sornhill.  The  recently-established  ironworks  of 
the  Portland  Company  at  Hurlford  employ  a  great  number  of 
the  town  population.  Markets,  ^c. — Kilmarnock  is  an  excel- 
lent market  for  the  agricultural  produce  of  the  parish.

IMPROVED    DRESSING    CASES, 

With   STERLING    SILVER    FITTINGS,    Manufactured 
ON  THE  Premises,  28  Buchanan  Street,  Glasgow, 

FRO^  FIVE  TO  FIFTY  GUINEAS  EACH. 

THE  abundant  encouragement  awarded  to  S.  WOOLFIELD  in 
the  manufacture  of  Silver  Fitted  Dressing  Cases  has  induced 
him  to  augment  his  Stock  to  an  extent  quite  unsurpassed,  except 
in  a  few  of  the  West  End  shops  of  London,  (where  extravagant 
prices  are  necessarily  exacted.)  Established  as  a  Maker  of  these 
articles  for  nearly  half  a  century,  his  reputation  has  not  been 
gained  without  warrant,  for  each  successive  year  has  exhibited 
the  improvement  which  naturally  comes  from  enlarged  experi- 
ence and  stability  of  position,  and  his  Dressing  Cases  are  now 
as  perfect  specimens  of  their  class  as  it  is  within  the  power  of 
human  industry  to  accomplish.  Their  distinguishing  charac- 
teristic is  great  strength  and  solidity  —  not  designed  for  mere 
appearance,  but  for  practical  utility  and  lasting  durability.  As 
travelling  necessaries  they  are  incontestibly  superior  to  all 
others,  the  fittings  being  so  arranged  and  classified  that  any  de- 
sired article  is  immediately  available,  while  they  are  furnished 
to  an  extent  that  meets  every  possible  exigency.  An  additional 
recommendation  is  their  impregnable  locks,  and  improved  mor- 
ticed partitions,  aff'ording  protection  and  security  from  break- 
age ;  and  all  springs  and  intricate  mechanism  are  carefully 
avoided,  being  always  liable  to  damage  by  change  of  climate,  &c. 

In  the  all  important  matter  of  price,  S.  Woolfield's  Dressing 
Cases,  being  economically  manufactured  in  his  own  Workshops, 
will  naturally  suggest  a  condition  both  favourable  to  excellence 
and  cheapness.  For  M ARRI AG E  PRESENTS  especially,  they 
are  an  elegant  and  becoming  gift ;  the  great  variety  always  in 
Stock  affording  almost  unlimited  choice  at  all  prices,  from  Five 
to  Fifty  Guineas. 

^*^  Dressing  Cases,  Writing  Desks,  and  Work  Boxes  rtf- 
paired,  new  lined,  modernized,  and  made  useful,  at  very  moderate 
prices. 

In  addition  to  the  very  superior  assortment  of  DRESSING 
CASES,  WORK-BOXES,  WRITING-DESKS,  WORK-TA- 
BLES, TEA-CHESTS,  and  BAGATELLE  BOARDS,  manu- 
actured  on  his  own  Premises,  S.  Woolfield  imports  largely 
from  the  great  Continental  manufactories  every  meritorious 
production  in  BOHEMIAN  GLASS  ORNAMENTS,  ITALIAN 
ALABASTER,  FRENCH  CHINA  and  CLOCKS,  BERLIN 
IRON  and  BROISZES  ;  and  his  Stock  of  PAPIER  MA  CHE 
and  GENERAL  FANCY  GOODS  is  at  all  times  unsurpassed 
out  of  ths  metropolis.

ness for  the  SOLES  of  BOOTS  and  SHOES  were  but  half 
known,  it  would  be  universally  adopted.  Its  extraordinary  du- 
rability, and  Waterproof  properties,  combined  with  the  easiness 
of  its  application,  render  it  one  of  the  most  useful  materials. 
The  public  generally,  and  heads  of  families  in  particular,  should 
all  learn  how  to  use  it — the  saving  would  be  immense,  besides

The  utility  of  these  Pills  is  fully  testified  by  thousands  who 
have  been  benefited  by  their  aid.  Among  the  numerous  testi- 
monials received,  the  following  short  extracts  are  given  by 
permission  : 

Sir  Robert  Peel,— Tamworth,  August  17,  1845. — After 
a  long  debate  I  have  found  great  relief  from  your  Pills  for  the 
Head. 

Mr.  George  Holmes,— Dale  Street,  Liverpool,  March  6, 
1849j — My  wife  sufi'ered  many  years  with  noise  in  the  ears,  which 
your  Pills  have  removed. 

Rev.  B.  Carter, — Portland  Place,  London,  December  14, 
1847. — In  accordance  with  your  request,  I  herewith  permit 
you  to  use  my  name  as  an  approver  of  your  Pills  ;  they  are 
really  good. 

Louis  Napoleon  Buonaparte, — Paris,  January  5, 1850. — 
I  have  given  your  Pills  a  fair  trial,  and  find  they  bear  out  your 
assertions,  as  I  suffered  much  in  my  head. 

General  Taylor, — New- York,  May  4, 1847. — In  gratitude 
I  give  you  permission  to  publish  my  perfect  approval  of  your 
Pills  for  the  Head,  and  would  thank  you  to  send  me  (per  next 
ship)  a  packet  of  two  dozen  boxes,  large  size. 

Rev.  George  Farran,— Princess  Street,  Edinburgh,  Feb. 
18,  1845. — Through  reading  one  of  your  Advertisements  I  was 
induced  to  purchase  a  box  of  your  Pills  for  the  Head,  which,  I 
am  happy  to  inform  you,  cured  me  of  the  most  miserable  mel- 
ancholy feelings,  which  I  had  endured  for  eight  or  nine  years. 
I  feel  now  quite  another  man  ;  but,  least  I  should  have  a  return 
of  it,  I  would  thank  you  to  send  me  two  boxes,  that  I  may  be 
prepared  should  I  be  again  attacked.  You  are  quite  at  liberty 
to  use  this  humble  testimony,  if  of  any  service,  in  any  way 
you  think  proper,  as  I  feel  grateful  for  the  service  you  have 
done  me.

CONSTITUTION  HORSE  BAL1.S* 

TO  Sportsmen,  Agriculturists,  Postmasters,  and  all 
Proprietors  of  Horses,  these  Balls  are  particularly 
recommended  in  all  cases  of  swelled  legs,  cracked  heels, 
loss  of  appetite,  and  vital  energy;  for  Coughs,  Colds, 
Fever,  or  Inflammation,  they  are  the  best  Medicine 
that  can  be  exhibited.  Moreover,  their  operation, 
though  effectual,  is  so  mild  that  they  require  no  alter- 
ation of  diet;  and  if  given  with  a  bran  mash  on 
Saturday  night,  will  not  interfere  with  the  ensuing 
week's  regular  work. 

NEAT    CATTLE. 

The  Constitution  Balls  are  strongly  recommended 
by  many  highly  respectable  gentlemen  [see  Testimoni- 
als), for  Cows  and  Oxen,  as  a  most  valuable  medicine 
in  cases  of  Hove  or  Blown,  Scouring  or  turning  out 
to  grass,  or  from  bad  food,  Gargate,  Hide  Bound,  Loss 
of  Appetite,  Staring  Coat,  Distemper,  Epidemic,  or 
Influenza.  Bullocks  fat  much  faster  by  occasionally 
giving  a  Ball.

THESE  TABLETS  are  as  convenient  and  efficacious  a  remedy 
as  can  be  employed  for  the  removal  of  coughs.  During  the  last 
fifteen  years  they  have  enjoyed  a  rapidly  increasing  sale,  so  that 
they  now  possess  a  wide  celebrity.  To  those  who  are  afflicted 
jvith  Difficulty  of  Breathing,  or  a  redundancy  of  phlegm,  they 
give  speedy  relief,  by  promoting  free  expectoration.  For 
Aged  Persons,  they  are  almost  indispensable  ;  and  no  one,  whose 
lungs  are  in  the  least  degree  susceptible  of  cold,  ought  to  be 
vithout  them.  They  give  immediate  and  permanent  relief  in 
cases  of  cough,  and  where  there  is  no  physical  disorganization, 
will  speedily  effect  a  cure. 

AFFECTIONS  OF  THE  THKOAT. 
Many  persons  suffer  much  from  irritation,  caused  in  the 
mucous  membrane  of  the  trachea  and  air  cells  of  the  lungs  by 
the  inhaling  of  foggy,  cold,  or  damp  atmospheres.  These  mem- 
branes are  far  more  tender  and  sensitive  in  some  persons  than 
in  others.  Hence,  under  certain  variations  from  heat,  cold,  or 
on  the  approach  of  even  a  slight  change  in  the  outward  air,  a 
tickling,  distressing  cough,  and  difficult  respiration  are  sure  to 
ensue  ;  and,  if  neglected,  too  often  prove  fatal,  To  any  person 
so  affected,  WQOLLEY'S  PECTORAL  CANDY,  taken  for  a 
short  time,  will  prove  of  eminent  service,  by  strengthening  the 
lungs  to  resist  the  effect  of  sudden  changes,  by  blunting  the 
acrimony  of  the  humours,  and  by  allaying  the  painful  irritation 
which  produces  that  distressing  effort  familiarly  called  coughing.

HOAESENESS. 
This  unpleasant,  painful,  and  dintressing  result  of  catching 
cold,  may,  at  any  time,  be  removed   by  taking  a  few  tablets  of 
Woolley's   Pectoral  Candy.     Hence,   singers  and  public 
epeakers  will  find  them  of  singular  advantage. 

ASTHMA. 

This  distressing  disease  of  the  lungs  may  be  greatly  mitigated 
in  its  effects  by  Woolley's  Pectoral  Candy,  while  in  most 
cases  complete  and  permanent  cures  are  (very  often  quickly) 
produced.  In  cases  of  moist  Asthma,  this  candy  will  at  once 
prevent  that  soreness  which  is  the  result  of  constant  expectora- 
tion ;  and  in  dry  or  nervous  Asthma,  it  promotes  that  degree  of 
expectoration  by  which  the  painful  coughing  may  be  greatly 
prevented. 

TO  THE  PUBLIC  IN  GENERAL. 

But  few  persons  are  aware  of  the  very  great  importance  of 
checking  a  cough  in  its  first  stage.  That  which  in  the  beginning 
would  yield  to  a  mild  remedy,  if  neglected,  soon  preys  upon 
the  lungs  ;  acrid  humours  increase,  and  powerful  medicines  tail 
to  relieve  the  cough.  Here  the  value  of  the  Pectoral  Candy  is 
most  apparent.  By  the  use  of  a  few  of  these  convenient  tablets, 
a  check  is  at  once  given  to  the  progress  of  the  disease.  Th© 
irritation  being  allayed  by  their  soothing,  sedative,  and  healing 
influence,  and  free  expectoration  being  promoted,  the  various 
membranes  speedily  resume  their  usual  tone,  and  those  fatal 
diseases,  of  which  a  slight  cough  is  but  too  often  the  forerunner, 
may  be  averted.  No  one  ought  to  be  without  a  remedy  that  is 
at  once  convenient,  agreeable,  and  efficacious,  but  at  the  same 
time  perfectly  innocent.  Another  important  principle  in  this 
candy  is,  that  it  may  be  taken  without  any  fear  of  disordering 
the  stomach  ;  on  the  contrary,  it  operates  as  a  tonic,  and  greatly 
strengthens  the  digestive  organs. 

Sold  in  Boxes  at  Is.  l^d-,  and  2s.  9d.  each,  with  full  direc-

MILNERS'  HOLDFAST  AND  FIEE-RESISTING  GOVERN- 
MENT SAFES  AND  CLOSETS,  for  Books,  Title  Deeds,  Cash, 
Plate,  &c,,  the  strongest  safeguards  against  fire  and  robbery  in 
the  world  ;  outer  plates  of  bodies,  quarter  to  half  inch,  and  of 
doors  half  inch  thick,  solid  wrought  Iron,  strongly  dovetailed

and  lined  throughout  with  Milners'  Treble  Fire-resisting  Cham- 
bers.    (See  List  No.  3,  in  Pamphlet.) 

MILNERS'  DOUBLE  FIRE-RESISTING  CHAMBERED 
SAFES,  CLOSETS,  and  CHESTS,  lighter,  and  one-third 
cheaper,  than  the  Thief- proof  "Holdfasts,"  but  equally  safe 
against  fire.  (See  List  No.  2,  in  Pamphlet.)  Safes  and  Chests 
from  List  No.  2  and  3,  are  recommended  for  large  Buildings,

Triumphant  Resistance  to  Robbers. 

Referring  to  their  "  Holdfast  Safes"  (See  List  No.  3,  page  3, 
in  Pamphlet),  Thomas  Milner  &  Son  have  pleasure  in  pub- 
lishing the  following  report,  addressed  to  their  Agents,  of  a 
night's  unsuccessful  labour  of  robbers  to  obtain  the  valuable 
contents  of  their  Safe,  in  the  use  of  a  large  sugar-house  in  Glas- 
gow : — 

Messrs.  David  Boyd  &  Co. 

Gentlemen, — Our  Milners'  Safe  was  attempted  to  be  broken 
open  last  night ;  but,  notwithstanding  the  great  and  persever- 
ing violence  with  which  the  robbers  have  worked  at  the  door 
and  back  of  the  Safe  (both  of  which  are  beaten  in  and  cut 
through  the  outer  plates  in  numerous  places),  the  lock  and  bolts 
remained  true,  and  saved  the  contents.  You  may  send  us 
another  Milners'  Holdfast  Safe,  No.  6. 
Glasgow,  28th  Dec,  1848.  JAS.  RICHARDSON  &  CO. 

In  the  numerous  accidental  Fires  and  experimental  tests 
which  Milners'  Safes  have  been  exposed  to — every  descrii^tion  of 
Safe  in  use — Fire-proof  (so  called)  or  otherwise,  have  been 
burnt  out  beside  them,  confirming  the  recommendation  of  the 
.  scientific  and  practical  authorities  who  have  tested  them  ;  and 
the  Patentees,  during  seven  years'  active  working  of  their  pa- 
tent, on  a  rapidly  extending  scale,  have  spared  no  pains  nor 
cost  in  effecting  improvements,  by  wdiich  they  are  enabled  to 
'ledge  themselves  at  all  times  to  supply  the  most  complete  and

secure  depositories  for  Books,  Documents,  and  Valuables ;  in- 
cluding the  strongest  Wrought  Iron  Safes,  Closets,  and  Doors 
in  the  World,  lined  with  their  unequalled  Fire-resisting  Cham- 
bers. Out  of  upwards  of  20,000  of  their  Safes  in  use  amongst 
the  Manufacturing  and  Commercial  Houses  in  Great  Britain — 
the  class  best  able  to  appreciate  their  value — numerous  cases 
of  severe  trial  in  accidental  Fires  have  occurred,  from  which 
Thomas  Milner  and  Son  select  the  following  as  instances,  in 
which  they  are  of  opinion  that  no  other  Safe  than  their  own 
would  have  preserved  its  contents  unburnt. 

Fire  at  Mr.  J.  B.  Blackaller's  Ship  Chandlery  Store,  Spar- 
ling-street, Liverpool ;  a  strong  and  fierce  Fire  ;  Safe  most 
severely  burnt  outside ;  contents  unsinged. 

Fire  at  Messrs.  J.  &  W.  Walkers',  the  extensive  builders, 
Birkenhead  :  buildings  entirely  gutted,  everything  burnt  in 
them,  including  the  contents  of  large  Iron  Safe  and  Drawers, 
standing  beside  Milners' :  the  contents  of  Milners'  uninjured, 
and  in  use  now. 

Fire  at  Messrs.  Garniss  &  Co.'s,  Park-lane ;  a  very  strong 
Fire  ;  again  the  contents  of  Milners'  Safe  the  only  things  saved 
on  the  premises. 

Fire  at  Plimsaul  Brothers,  of  Plymouth ;  a  very  extensive 
and  destructive  Fire ;  a  large  Iron  Safe,  covered  with  brick- 
work, with  double  Iron  doors,  burnt  out ;  Milners'  entirely  pre- 
serving its  contents. 

Fire  in  Queen-street,  Glasgow  ;  a  great  number  of  Safes  and 
Closets  burnt  out :  no  books  saved  throughout  the  buildings 
excepting  Messrs.  S.  K.  &  Thomas  Brown's,  in  Milners'  Safe. 

Milners,  Fire-resisting  Safes,  Chests,  and  Boxes,  suitable  for 
all  classes  of  Buildings,  Impregn.able  Locks  and  Cash  Boxes,  at 
the  Works,  50a  and  54,  Lord-street,  Liverpool,  and  London 
City  Depot,  47a,  Moorgate-street. 

Destructive    Fires    in   Glasgow,    Manchester, 
Ijincoln's  Inn,  &;c. 

MILNERS'  "  HOLDFAST "  and  FIRE-RESTSTING 
SAFES  are  the  strongest,  best,  and  cheapest  safeguards  in  the 
world  against  fire,  robbery,  and  fraud  :  20,000  of  them  keep 
the  books,  deeds,  and  cash  of  the  practical  men  of  Liverpool, 
Manchester,  Glasgow,  &c.,  who  know  their  superiority  to  any 
others.  Five  of  them  have  brought  their  contents  unscathed 
out  of  the  ruins  of  large  fires  in  Glasgow  alone  this  year,  where- 
in scores  of  other  Safes  have  been  burnt  out.  Twenty-five 
offices  were  burnt  out  in  Lincoln's-innin  January,  in  one  alone 
of  which  the  title-deeds  of  thirty  large  landed  estates  were 
burnt,  which  would  all  have  been  preserved  in  Milners'  Safes.

sister  of  mine,  of  Asthma  of  ten  years'  duration,  by  your 
Pectoral  Candy. 

I  am,  yours  truly,  James  Duggins, 

Temperance  Hotel. 

N.B. — I  could  tell  you  of  another  cure  ;  but  the  person  said 
he  should  write  to  you  himself.  This  was  the  person  who  re- 
commended it  to  my  sister. 

Plymouth  Foundry,  Plymouth,  Devon,  March  22d,  1850. 

Sir, — I  think  it  a  duty  I  owe  to  yourself  and  the  public,  to 
inform  you  of  the  great  benefit  1  have  derived  from  your  Pec- 
toral Candy.  1  have  been  troubled  with  a  severe  cough  for 
the  last  seven  years,  and,  although  I  have  had  the  very  best 
medical  advice,  could  obtain  no  permanent  relief  until  I  fortun- 
ately tried  ycur  Candy;  and,  after  taking  two  small  boxes,  I 
find  myself  free  from  cough.  You  have  my  permission  to  give 
publicity  to  this  statement. 

Yours,  &c.,  John  Edmond  Mare.

Dear  Sir, — Mrs  Chiseman,  of  Garden  Street,  Brompton,  has 
been  cured  of  a  cough  of  four  years'  standing,  !  y  taking  one 
box  of  your  Pectoral  Candy,  and  is  desirous  of  expressing  her 
gratitude,  in  order  that  others,  similarly  afflicted,  may  obtain 
the  same  benefit.  Please  send  me  three  dozen  of  the  large 
boxes  for  her  brother  to  take  out  to  the  Mauritius  with  him 
next  week.  I  can  also  add  my  testimony,  that,  from  the  many 
cases  I  have  seen  of  its  decided  eificacy,  I  am  persuaded  it 
stands  unrivalled  as  a  general  Cough  medicine. 

Yours  truly,  Henry  Watts,  Chemist,  Chatham. 

To  Mr  Woolley. 

Mr  Starling,  16,  Marsham  Street,  Maidstone,  has  been 
under  the  care  of  Dr.  Cobb,  Great  St.  Helen's;  Dr.  Addison, 
Chief  Physician  to  Guy's  Hospital  ;  and  Dr.  Powell,  Tonbridge 
Wells.  His  disease  was  pronounced  "Ulcers  on  the  Lungs." 
These  eminent  men  told  him,  when  he  appeared  to  be  sinking, 
that  they  could  do  nothing  more  for  him.  It  was  then  he  was 
advised,   by  a   friend,  to   make  trial  of  Woolley 's   Pectoral

Sir, — It  gives  me  much  pleasure  to  be  able  to  certify  to  the 
goodness  of  your  valuable  Pectoral  Candy,  for  the  great  relief 
it  has  given  to  my  wife.  Having  seen  your  advertisement  in 
the  "  Kent  Herald,"  I  was  fortunate  enough  to  get  a  box  of  the 
candy  ;  and,  although  my  wife  has  been  troubled  with  a  cough 
these  four  or  five  years,  with  a  tightness  on  the  chest,  and,  at 
times,  she  was  hardly  able  to  breathe,  strange,  but  true  to  say, 
your  first  box  relieved  her  ;  and  I,  as  well  as  my  wife,  return 
you  our  thanks  for  your  valuable  medicine.

To  Mr.  Woolley. — Sir, — Will  you  have  the  kindness  to  send 
me  another  box  of  your  most  useful,  nay,  invaluable  Pectoral 
Candy.     It  has  effected,  in  my  case,  a  cure  of  an  Asthma  and 
Cough,  which  have  been   a  heavy  trouble  to  me  for  the  last 
thirty  years  ;  for  it  settled  on  my  lungs  when  I  was  recovering 
from  the  Measles  when  a  child,  and  I  never  thought  to  get  rid 
of  it,  having  tried  every  remedy  that  could  be  heard  of,  and 
being  reduced  to   despair.      But,  thanks    to   your  wonderful 
Candy,  I  am  now  restored,  and  give  you  my  deepest  gratitude, 
I  remain,  Sir,  yours  respectfully,

Sir, — I  cannot  speak  too  highly  of  the  excellency  of  Woolley's 
Pectoral  Candy.  I  have  suffered  for  years  with  a  dreadful 
cough  and  difBculty  of  breathing.  In  this  distressing  state  I 
was  recommended  to  try  Woolley's  Pectoral  Candy,  the  first 
box  of  which  gave  me  great  relief,  the  second  box  completely 
cured  me.  I  have  recommended  them  to  many  of  ray  friends 
who  were  similarly  afflicted,  who  have  all  received  the  greatest 
relief  from  them. 

I  am.  Sir,  yours  obliged,  Octavius  Glyn.

^This  Society  was  established  in  the  year  1815,  upon  the  principle  of  Mutual 
Vontribution,  and  thus  belongs  to  that  class  of  Life  Assurance  Institutions 
which  is  now  almost  universally  admitted  to  be  the  best,  and  which  is  at  all 
events  the  most  popular. 

The  objection  usually  urged  against  a  Society  founded  upon  this  principle  is 
the  risk  attendant  on  its  failure,  from  an  unexpected  mortality  amongst  the 
Members,  in  an  early  period  of  its  existence.  No  such  objection,  however,  can 
apply  to  a  Society  which  has  been  in  existence  upwards  of  35  years — having  rea- 
lised and  accumulated  a  CAPIT'iL  oi  upwards  of  TWO  MILLIONS,  and 
possessing  upwards  of  6000  Members. 

This  Society  has  been  more  than  usually  successful  in  its  opei-ations,  and  there 
are  few  establishments  of  the  kind  in  the  kingdom  which  surpass  it  in  the  num- 
ber and  extent  of  its  transactions— the  amount  of  Assuranc8S  passed  dur- 
ing the  last  twelve  years,  having,  on  an  average,  exceeded  Half 
a  Million  per  annum. 

The  benefits  of  the  Society  are  open  to  all  classes  of  the  community.  Policies 
are  issued  for  sums  varying  in  amount  from  £50  to  £5000. 

The  affairs  of  the  Society  are  carefully  scrutinised  and  examined,  and  its 
Funds  and  Liabilities  are  valued  at  stated  intervals  of  seven  years  ;  the  Profits 
ascertained  at  these  leriodical  investigations  are  divided,  and  appropriated  for 
the  benefit  of  the  Assured — not  less  than  one-third  being  set  aside  as  a  Guarantee 
Fund,  to  maintain  the  stability  of  the  Institution,  and  the  remainder  being 
divided  amongst  the  Members  entitled  to  participate  in  them. 

The  sum  set  aside  as  a  Guarantee  Fund  at  last  period  of  investigation— -Slab 
December,  1845~was  £204  807  :  7 : 2,  and  the  sum  divided  amongst  the  Members 
was  £614,422  : 1 :  6.  The  share  of  the  profits  falling  to  each  Member  may  Ire 
applied  by  him  in  any  of  the  following  ways  :— It  may  be  taken  as  an  addition 
to  the  original  sum  assured  ;  or  it  may  be  surrendered  for  its  present  value  in 
cash ;  or  this  value  may  be  applied  towards  th  reduction  of  the  futur© 
Premiums.

ASSURANCE    A    DUTY. 

It  may  be  felt  by  many,  that,  admitting  this  duty  in  full,  their  income  is 
nevertheless  insufficient  to  enable  them  to  spare  even  the  pmall  sum  necessary 
as  an  annual  premium  for  Life  Assurance.  The  necessities  of  the  present  are 
in  their  case  so  great,  that  they  do  not  see  how  they  can  afford  it.  We  be- 
lieve there  can  be  no  obstacle  which  is  apt  to  appear  more  real  than  this, 
where  an  income  is  at  all  limited  ;  and  yet  it  is  easy  to  show  that  no  obstacle 
could  be  more  ideal.  It  will  be  readily  acknowledged  by  everybody  who  has 
an  income  at  all,  that  there  must  be  some  who  have  smaller  incomes.  Say, 
for  instance,  that  a  man  has  £400  per  annum  ;  he  cannot  doubt  that  there 
are  some  who  have  only  £350.  Now,  if  the.<e  persons  live  on  £350,  why  may 
not  he  do  so  too,  sparing  the  odd  £50  as  a  premium  for  Life  Assurance  ?  In 
like  manner,  he  who  has  £200  may  live  as  men  do  who  have  only  £175,  antl 
devote  the  remaining  £25  to  have  a  sum  assured  ujjon  his  life.  And  so  on. 
It  may  require  an  effort  to  accomplish  this  ;  but  is  not  tiie  object  worthy  of 
an  effort  1  And  can  any  man  be  held  as  honest,  or  any  w^y  good,  who  will 
not  make  such  an  effort,  rather  than  be  always  liable  to  the  risk  of  leaving 
in  beggar  J'  the  beings  whom  he  most  cherished  on  earih,  and  for  whose  sup- 
port he  alone  is  responsible  ? — Chambers^  Infurmation  fur  the  People.

LIFE     ASSURANCE     AND     ANNUITIES. 

INCORPORATED  BY  ACT  OF  PARLIAMENT. 


No.   14,  ST.  ANDREW  SQUARE,  EDINBURGH. 
THE  ONLY  OFFICE   IN  WHICH  THE  BENEFIT  OF 

MUTUAL  ASSUEANCE   CAN  BE    OBTAINED 
AT  A  MODERATE  PREMIUM. 

The  Assured  are  at  the  sametime  specially  exempt 
from  personal  liability. 

The  Premiums  are  about  a  fourtli  lower  tlian 
in  tlie  other  Mutual  Offices — so  tliat  tlie  same  Pre- 
mium wliicli  at  age  30^  is  charged  in  tliem  for  an 
Assurance  of  £1000^  will  secure  a  Policy,  in  this 
Office,  for  £1230. 

The  Whole  Profits  are  divisible  among  the 
Assured,  on  a  new  and  equitable  principle,  pecu- 
liarly favourable  to  good  lives. 

That  principle  is,  that  the  surplus  should  be  re- 
served for  those  Members  whose  Premiums,  with 
accumulated  interest,  amount  to  the  sums  in  their 
Policies,  instead  of  being  frittered  away  among 
Policies  of  short  duration,  on  which  there  is  a  loss, 
and  not  a  profit,  to  the  common  fund. 

The  share  of  profit  may  be  applied  in  addition 
to  the  Policies,  or  in  diminution,  or  extinction,  of 
the  future  Premiums,  at  the  option  of  the  Assured. 

Since  the  commencement,  in  1837,  5000  Poli- 
cies have  been  issued,  a  number  greatly  beyond 
what  has   been   opened   by  any   other   Scottish

for  a  yearly  payment  during  his  life^,  of  £2  Is  6d 
only^  which  sum  could  readily  be  set  aside  for  the 
purpose  of  Assurance  by  a  saving  of  expenditure 
in  other  matters  of  only  9|d  per  week.  At  the 
same  rate  a  provision  of  £500  may  be  secured  by 
a  weekly  saving  of  4s. 

By  a  comparatively  trifling  denial  in  present 
comforts^  almost  every  one  has  it  thus  in  his 
power  to  place  his  family  at  his  death  in  a  posi- 
tion of  independence^  or^  it  may  be^  of  compara-

The  Business  of  this  Association  embraces  Assurances 
on  Lives  and  Survivorships,  for  the  whole  term  of  life  or  f  )r 
limited  periods;  Annuities,  Endowments,  and  generally  every 
description  of  risk  contingent  on  the  duration  of  human  life. 
Progress  of  the  Business. 

The  Board  of  Directors  in  Scotland  refer  with  much 
gratification  to  the  increasing  prosperity  of  the  Association,  and 
to  the  large  amount  of  business  transacted  during  the  past  year, 
as  affording  unquestionable  evidences  of  public  favour  and 
confidence. 

The  new  Assurances  effected  during  the  year  1850,  consid- 
erably exceeded  the  sum  of  Two  Hundred  Thousand  Pounds^ 
producing  in  New  Premiums  upwards  of  Nine  Thousand 
Pounds  ;  the  Animal  Income  during  the  same  period,  exclusive 
of  Annuity  Purchase  Money,  amounted  to  Eifty-two  Thou- 
sand Three  Hundred  Pounds,  the  Funds  Invested  to  upwards 
of  a  Quarter  of  a  Million,  and  the  Subsisting  Assurances  to 
One  Million  One  Hundred  and  Eighty  Thousand  Pounds. 

THE  POLICIES 
of  the  Association  are  effectually  secured  by  a  protecting 
Capital  of  One  Million  Sterling,  fully  subscribed  by  a  numer- 
ous and  wealthy  body  of  Proprietors,  and  thus  present  a  most 
advantageous  mode  of  Investment  for  Family  Provision,  with 
entire  exemption  from  responsibility. 

THE    PREMIUMS 
may  be  paid  Yearly,  Half  "Yearly,  Quarterly,  for  a  limited  term 
of  Years,  or  in  a  Single  Payment— at  the  option  of  the  Assured.

THE    PROFITS 


are  divided  at  each  Investigation,  according  to  an  approved  and 
equitable  system  of  division,  whereby  substantial  justice  is 
secured  to  all  the  Assured,  without  any  unfair  preference  being 
given  to  the  earlier  Entrants,  either  by  an  indefinite  postpone- 
ment of  the  period  of  Investigation — by  drawing  back  at  each 
Division  to  the  date  of  the  Original  Assurance — or  by  any  other 
modification  of  the  Tontine  principle,  as  opposed  to  that  of  pure 
Life  Assurance,  whereby  the  Interests  of  new  Entrants  are  ex<- 
posed  to  an  unequal  and  disadvantageous  competition  with 
those  of  the  older  Members.  The  Bonus  Additions  vest  imme- 
diately on  declaration  ;  and  they  may  be  appropriated  in  any 
of  the  following  wavs  : —

III.  By  an  Immediate  CASH  PAYMENT  of  the  present

Intending  Assurers  are  particularly  requested  to  observe 
that  they  have  thus  placed  within  their  own  choice  every  possible 
mode  of  appropriating  the  Bonus  Additions  declared  upon  their 
Policies,  in  the  way  which  they  may  consider  most  suitable  to 
their  own  views  and  circumstances. 

THE  FIRST  INVESTIGATION 

took  place  at  Christmas  1846,  when  a  Reversionary  Bonus  of 

Two  PER  Cent.per  Annum,  vesting  immediately  on  declaration, 

was  added  to  all  Policies  entitled  to  participate  in  the  Division.

HALF-CREDIT  PREMIUMS. 
Persons  who  may  find  it  inconvenient  to  pay  the  full  Annual 
Premium  at  first,  may  effect  Assurances  for  the  Whole  Term 
of  Life  on  the  Half-Credit  Scale,  whereby  one  half  of  the 
Annual  Premiums  may  remain  unpaid  for  Three,  Five,  or  Seven 
years  ; — the  arrears  being  either  paid  up  at  the  end  of  the 
period,  or  allowed  to  remain  as  a  permanent  debt  against  the

the  full  advantage  of  Bonus  Additions  on  the  Whole  Sum  Assured^ 
the  value  of  whicl),  when  declared,  may,  if  desired,  be  applied 
towards  extinction  of  the  arrears  of  premium.  They  also  afford 
this  important  adv.intage, — that  Assurances  may  thus  be 
effected  at  an  earlier  age,  and  consequently  at  a  much  lower 
rate  of  Premium,  than  if  postponed  until  the  party  is  enabled

ought  to  be  conducted  ;  and,  amongst  the  numerous  Life  In- 
surance Offices  now  competing  for  the  public  favour,  very  few, 
comparatively,  have  attained  such  a  period  of  endurance.  The 
Edinburgh  Life  Assurance  Company  has  been  successfully  con- 
ducted for  upwards  of  Twenty-seven  Years,  being  the  best 
guarantee  that  all  the  advantages  hitherto  given  to  the  Assured, 
will  be  continued  to  present  and  future  Entrants. 

By  a  Policy  with  this  Company,  the  highest  benefits  that 
can  be  obtained  from  adopting  Life  Assurance  as  a  Family  Pro- 
vision, are  secured  to  the  Assured  without  liability. 

Nine-tenths  of  the  Whole  Profits  are  Septennially  divided 
among  the  Assured  on  the  Participation  Scale ;  a  larger  pro- 
portion than  can  ever  be  safely  divided  by  simple  Mutual 
Assurance  Societies,  in  which  at  least  one-third  must  always  be 
laid  aside  to  form  a  guarantee. 

The  benefits  of  Insurance  on  the  Participation  Plan  are  ex- 
hibited in  the  Company's  Bonus  Declarations  in  1835, 1842,  and 
1849 — the  total  Bonus  in  two  instances  exceeding  the  sura 
originally  insured ;  others  in  proportion.  See  Prospectus,  to 
be  had  gratis,  on  application. 

An  intermediate  Bonus  between  one  investigation  and 
another. 

The  Non-Participation  Scale  of  Premiums  being  extremely 
moderate,  is  suited  for  money  transactions  ;  and  also  presents 
the  advantage  of  an  immediate  Bonus  of  considerable  amount,^ 
when  compared  with  most  other  Offices.

SURRENDER  OF  BONUS  FOR  VALUE  IN  CASH. 

According  to  this  method,  if  the  person  assured  does 
not  wish  the  sum  in  his  policy  increased,  he  may  sur- 
render the  Bonus,  and  take  its  value  in  cash  ;  that  is^ 
instead  of  the  amount  being'  paid  with  the  sum  assured 
at  death,  such  a  sum  will  not  be  given  as  the  Directors 
may  consider  equivalent  to  it  in  present  value. 

Example. -^In.  the  case  of  the  policy  of  £1000  opened 
before  15th  November  1825,  for  instance,  as  quoted 
above,  assuming  the  party  to  have  assured  at  the 
age  «of  35,  and  to  be  novv  60  last  birth-day,  the 
sum  of  £463,  7s.  9d.  would  be  given  for  a  surren^ 
der  of  the  Bonus  of  £873,  while  the  policy  will 
continue  to  receive  its  share  of  profits,  at  future 
investigations,  as  if  the  surrender  had  not  taken 
place.

"  Gentlemen,— I  may  here  mention  that  your  Wafers  give  great  satisfac^ 
tion  ;  one  case  in  particular  :— An  old  gentleman,  who  for  years  has  been  afflic- 
ted with  Asthma,  and  seldom  had  a  quiet  night's  rest,  had  used  very  many 
proprietary  medicines,  as  well  as  medical  prescriptions,  but  all  were  of  no  use. 
Since  he  began  to  use  Locock's  Wafers,  he  feels  himself  quite  well  again.  He 
sleeps  well  at  night,  and  is  quite  refreshed  in  the  morning.
