uncertainty of all human dependencies , and may we spend the present time as becomes the seriousness of the occasion . Prepare us , 0 Lord , for all thy gracious intentions ; if we live may we live unto the Lord ; if we die may we sleep in Christ . Sanctify the melancholy event we are met to commemorate to our souls ' benefit , and impress it deeply upon every heart ; may the serious and important service in which we are now engaged , leave a suitable impression upon every

mind ; may the more advanced in life read the certainty of death , and may the young , the companions and brothers of him whose loss we deplore , read the uncertainty of life ; and may we , one and all , be truly prepared to give that solemn account , which our departed Brother is now called upon to give . May we all eagerly snatch the present moment to work out our salvation with fear and trembling , seeing we know not how soon the night cometh , when no man

can work ; and prosper thou , O Lord , the work of our hands upon us , O prosper thou our handiwork , that when thou , the final rewarder of all them who labour in thy vineyard , shall come to render unto every one according to his labour and his work , we maybe found amongst the happy number of those who shall be received into thine everlasting kingdom , to enjoy , in the union with our departed friends and brethren , the just reward of a pious and virtuous life . Amen .

ROYAL MEDICAL BENEVOLENT COLLEGE .

It is -with pleasure that we call the attention of our readers to the satisfactory progress of this much needed institution , and to the gratifying fact that the medical profession is indebted to a Brother Mason for its establishment , to whose unwearied exertions its present prosperous condition is mainly to be attributed . The objects of the Institution are as follow : —

First . —An Asylum , in which One Hundred Pensioners , who must be duly qualified Medical Men , or their Widows ( possessing incomes of at least £ 15 a year ) , shall be provided with three furnished rooms each , and with such additional assistance and accommodation as the funds may permit . The Council , however , confidently hope that the Society will be enabled wholly to support some few deserving persons not possessed of the required income .

Secondly . —A School , in which a liberal education will he given to One Hundred Boys , the Sons of duly qualified Medical Men ; three-fourths of whom will pay £ 30 a year each for education , board , lodging , and washing ; while the rest will be Orphans educated and maintained entirely at the expense of the Society . TJiirdly . —To grant Annuities , and occasional pecuniary assistance to distressed Members of the Medical Profession or their families , as the funds of the College may from time to time permit .

These objects need no comment , as they cannot fail to enlist the sympathies and generous support of the community at large ; and as the Medical Profession have ever had a strong claim upon the public , we trust that in their endeavour to provide a harbour of refuge for their less fortunate Brethren , the co-operation of many of our readers will not be wanting to secure its attainment , particularly as great exertions are being made to raise a sufficient sum to enable the Council to open the College in June next . By a recent resolution of the Council w e observe that ladies may become Life .
