[blocks in formation]

The PROFITS of SEVEN YEARS of the Scottish Widows' Fund Assurance Society will be DIVIDED as at 31st December, 1873. A careful estimate of probable results justifies the conviction that an unusually large bonus will be declared on this occasion.

The financial year ends on 31st December, 1873, but as some time must elapse before the Lists can be completed. Assurances on Proposals LODGED BEFORE 31st JANUARY, 1874, will RANK as CURRENT from 31st DECEMBER, 1873, and thus will RECEIVE a FULL YEAR'S BONUS. ARCHIBALD DAY, Secretary in London.

JOHN INCHBALD, Esq., of 2, Copthall-court, and the Stock Exchange, London, is authorized to receive applications for 7,500 unissued Shares of this Company. 108. on application. 308. on allotment, and the Balance at intervals of not less than Two Months; no call to exceed 11. per Share.

This Company is in possession of a mining "sett" of proved value, containing no less than 4,510 feet of "true fissure" Gold and Silver bearing lodes" with all dips, spurs and angles." The Company's title is perfectly clear, absolute, and indefeasible.

These Mines have been considerably opened out and developed :1st. By an upper Tunnel driven 407 feet on the lode, attaining a depth of £10 feet below the outerops. 2ud. By a lower adit run 290 feet at a right angle, then carried along the course of the lode 656 feet, thus throwing open a large extent of Ore-Bearing ground. 3rd. Steam Hoisting Works have been erected, and a Main-Shaft sunk 208 feet, a drift from which has cut two of the ledges (the 1.X.L. and Extenuate) near their junction at a depth of 100 feet below their outcrops. 4th. From the 100 level in engine shaft a Tuunel is being run on the Ophir lode to open up additional reserves of Ore.

The Manager is now taking out Ore which yields over 100 dollars per Ton, and states that the expenses of Mining and Milling will not exceed 10 dollars per Ton.

The Company also owns a splendid mill-site, with water-power to drive 50 stamps, and a timber ranche affording abundance of wood for all purposes. The present issue of Shares is for the purpose chiefly of erecting a substantial Mill, a few months after the completion of which there is every reason to believe that the Shareholders will be in receipt of large and permanent Dividends.

A considerable quantity of rich Ore is already on the dump, and is being increased daily.

Attention is directed to the small capital of this Company. Full particulars, with Forms of Application, will be forwarded on applying to the above named.

The following are the Directors and Officers of the Company:Major-General Charles Campbell, of Kinloch, N.B.; and Oriental Club, W.

Colonel Augustus W. Meyrick, 14, Essex-villas, Kensington, W.; and the Guards' Club.

THE BALLAD LITERATURE AND POPULAR MUSIC OF THE OLDEN TIME:

COLLECTION OF THE OLD SONGS, BALLADS, AND DANCE TUNES WHICH CONSTITUTE THE NATIONAL MUSIC OF ENGLAND; ARRANGED CHRONOLOGICALLY,
WITH REMARKS AND ANECDOTE, AND PRECEDED BY SKETCHES OF THE EARLY STATE OF MUSIC, AND OF THE AMUSEMENTS
ASSOCIATED WITH IT IN ENGLAND DURING THE VARIOUS REIGNS.

By W. CHAPPELL, F.S.A.

The present Work, indispensable to all who are interested in the Popular Literature of England, is the result of many years' careful research among MSS., Black-Letter Books, and the numerous ephemeral Publications of the Sixteenth, Seventeenth, and the early part of the Eighteenth Century. The various Ballad collections, such as the Pepys, the Roxburghe, the Bagford, the Douce, the Rawlinson, &c., have been laid under contribution; whilst the Garlands collected by Pepys, Ashmole, Wood, Luttrell, &c., have furnished considerable matter in illustration of the subject. The old Dramatists have been carefully gleaned for notices of Old Songs and Ballads, and every available source likely to enrich the Work has been examined and quoted. Thus, the book is not a mere collection of Old English Tunes, but an account, Popular and Literary, of hundreds of our Old Ballads; in many cases giving entire Ballads for the first time in an accessible shape. The Two Volumes contain upwards of Eight Hundred Pages, with Fac-similes from old MSS. and Printed Books.

OLD ENGLISH DITTIES.

All the Favourite Songs selected from 'Popular Music of the Olden Time,' with Symphonies and Accompaniments for the Pianoforte by G. A. MACFARREN; the long Ballads compressed
and in some cases new words written, by J. OXEN FORD.
Large Folio Edition, printed from Engraved Plates, cloth, 218. Small-Type Edition, complete, cloth, 10s. 6d.; or, half bound in morocco, 15s. The above Work is also divided into
Thirteen Parts, each Part containing Twelve Songs, 68.
N.B.-All the most favourite of the Old English Ditties are also published separately, from Engraved Plates, Large Folio Size, each 18.
