I BY THEIR MOST OBEDIENT HUMBLE SERVANT,

GEORGE FOWLER. ADDRESS.

G. FOWLER, in ushering to the Public the Twelfth Edition of the

Paisley and Johnstone Directory, begs to return his sincere thanks for the patronage he has hitherto enjoyed, and trusts that the present Work will be found equally deserving their countenance and support.

Every person is aware that the chief value of a work of this kind,

consists in the accuracy of its details, and the distinct arrangement

of its several parts. In securing these essential requisites, he has in

this, as in all former Editions of his' Directory, spared neither la-

bour nor expense ; and as this can only be compensated by an ex-

tensive sale of the work, he trusts he will meet with his usual encour-

agement from a discerning Public.

From the success the Publisher has had in procuring orders dur-

ing his survey, it might be construed into false pride, were he entire-

ly to overlook the opposition he has met with this year. It is true

the ground was early occupied by an individual, formerly in the Pub-

lisher's service, and numbers were led to subscribe for that work, un-

der the impression that it was "Fowler's Directory." * The two

Books are now before the public, they will speakfor themselves ; and

convince all who may put themselves to the trouble of a comparison, that the compilation of a Directory cannot be achieved without great

personal labour, expense, and experience.

* In proof of this, Mr. Fowler has a number of vouchers from respectable in-

dividuals in Paisley, which may be seen at any time in his office. —

While in the enjoyment of health, he had, in a conversation with a friend on the subject of death, expressed a wish to be bur- ied in some rural spot, sacred to peace and solitude ; whither the charms of na- ture might invite tne steps of the votary of the muses and the lover of science, and where the birds might sing over his grave. It has been matter J of regret to those of his friends to whom was confided the mournful duty of ordering his funeral, that this desire had not been made known to them, otherwise it should have been piously observed. A plain marble tomb marks where his du3t re- poses, on which appears the following inscription :

This Monument covers the remains of Alexander Wilson, author of the American Ornithology. He was born in Renfrewshire, Scotland, on the 6th

July, 1766 ; emigrated to the United States in the year 1794 ; and died in Phila- delphia, of the dysentery, on the 23d August, 1813, aged 47. G. FOWLER. FOWLER'S PAISLEY DIRECTORY.

Population of Paisley within the hounds specified in the Reform Act, according to the Census in 1841, 48,908. The above is the amount of Population within the Parliamentary Boundary of the Town. This is the first Census that has been taken since the Boundary was fixed. The present cannot therefore be well contrasted with any prior Census. But the amount of Po- pulation, as nearly as can be computed within what is now the Par- liamentary Boundary of the Town, was in 1831, 46,199, which makes an increase of Population since that period of 2,203 persons. If, however, the number of persons absent at sea-bathing quarters and otherwise, and strangers present on the night of the 6th of June, are taken into account, the Population would stand thus : Persons in Paisley on the night of the 6th of June, 48,416 — absent, ' 607

HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE SKETCH

or JOHNSTONE.

Few places in Britain exhibit so striking an illustration of the effect of manufactures in originating and increasing towns, in attracting, condensing, and augmenting population, as does this thriving seat of business. Sixty years ago, near that bridge over the Black Cart, " which till lately gave to the place the popular appellation Brig of Johnstone," merely a few cottages were to be seen, where now is a town, consisting of two large squares, many considerable streets, and numerous public works, with a population of about 7000 souls. It is probable that the town of Johnstone never would have exist- ted, or at most would have been confined to the few cottages that stuck upon the ground near to the Brig, had not the late public- spirited Laird of Johnstone, by his influence and example, excited a spirit of industry among its inhabitants, and cherished and supported it by Ms fatherly care and protection, and, we are happy to say, that the seed has been sown in good ground, as it continues to manifest it- self by the increasing wealth and prosperity of the enlightened and enterprising merchants and traders belonging to the place. Towards the end of October 1782, nine houses of the New Town of Johnstone had been built, two others were building, and ground on which forty-two more were to be built had been feued. In 1792, the mhabitants were 1434 in number; in 1811, 3,647 ; in 1818, by computation, 5,000. As the introduction of the manufacture of cotton yarn by mill-machinery led to the founding of Johnstone, so has the extension of the same manufacture caused its rapid increase and present prosperity. There are now within the precincts of the place 15 cotton mills of varied extent, some propelled by water, also, others by steam, besides a flax mill and a carpet factory ; El- derslie and Linwood mills, in the neighbourhood of Johnstone, making in all 20 mills. There are also in the town two brass foundries, and two exten- JOHNSTONE. 141

sive iron foundries ; five machine manufactories, and a public gas work. Johnstone is very regularly laid out. Besides Houstoun square, in the centre of the town, which is now built on every side, there is to the southward a large area, meant for a second square, as well as a market place, and which is also now beginning to be built round with neat houses. High street, extending from the Bridge of John- stone on the west, to Dick's Bridge (or Canal Bridge) on the east, is closely built ; as are several other streets branching at right an- gles from both its sides. It is in length 3 furlongs, 36 poles. The houses are for the most part two stories high, substantially con- structed, and roofed with slates, and all of them have gardens The shops are numerous, and well stocked with cheap, various, and excellent commodities. Besides the Chapel of Ease, (an octagonal fabric, to which, about 22 years ago, a neat spire, after a design of Sir Christopher Wren, was added,) Johnstone contains two places of worship belonging to the United Presbyterian Church, and a Methodist Chapel ; also, one of the Free Churches of Scotland, and Sir William Wallace's Church at Elderslie in connection with the Establishment. In Johnstone are also two News Booms, a Mechanics' Institution an

Although this market is not generally known, being . but lately established, yet, from the excellent supply of cattle brought forward, it promises to be one of the most numerously attended Fairs in the West of Scotland. The market-place is spacious and very extensive, affording accommodation rarely to be met with. * Old Style is too antiquated to be understood now, and we would recommend to the inhabitants of those villages who regulate their Fairs by it, to join in "the progressive march of intellect." The Russians who are in the rear of European civilisation, have lately adopted Neva Style, and surely we will not allow ourselves to droop behind.

CALEDONIAN INSURANCE COMPANY.

INCORPORATED BY ROYAL CHARTER AND ACT OF PARLIAMENT.

Established in 1805.

Head-Office— 19 George Street, Edinburgh.

This successful Institution, the first Proprietary Office in Scotland, begs to call the attention of all parties connected Avith Friendly and other Societies to the importance of Life Insurance, and to the benefits to be derived from joining an Established Company like this, in preference to connecting themselves with societies whose rates of con- tribution, in many instances, are inadequate to meet the claims which idtimately come upon them. Policies, for instance, insuring £20 on a life of thirty next birth- day, may be obtained from this Company by an annual payment of 8s. 10d., and so on in proportion. If a share of the Profits of the Company is desired, the Premium is 10s. Policies on Single Lives effected to the extent of £5000. At the last investigation a Bonus of from Six to Eleven per Cent, on the Sum Insured on all Policies of Eive Years' standing and upwards was declared. Premiums are payable Yearly, Half-yearly, or Quarterly. Eive-sixths of the Profits (a larger proportion than most Offices allow) are ultimately divided among the Participating Policy Holders. No Entrance-Money is charged. One-third of the whole Life Premiums is allowed to remain as a Debt against the Policy. t Bonuses are added to Policies, or paid in present Money, or Annual Premiums are reduced. Liberal allowances given for Surrenders. These and other advantages given by the Company, cannot tie warrantably exceeded by any other Insurance Institution whatever. Tables of Rates will be obtained at this Office. FIRE INSURANCE.

EIRE INSURANCES of every description are effected at very moderate terms. No expense in transfering Policies from other Offices. H. D. DICKIE, Manager. JOHN MOINET, Secretary.

N. B.—We understand that Mr. Johnston has not been able to leave his house, nor much out of bed, for the last seven years and six months ; and during all that time he has been suffering from the most painful disease that afflicts mankind, and every five hours he requires a surgeon to take away his urine to keep him alive ; and therefore he is justly deserving the support of the benevolent, and of the public, to be customers for his Ink. At present he is much in want of assistance ha both these ways, owing to the great expense required for surgeons, &c, to keep him in life—which is more than

the profits of the business will now pay ; and when money cannot be got to pay a surgeon, that day he must die, by the bursting of his bladder, (the death his father died.) The thought of this fearful death is like to put the poor man out of his reason. Now, when want is approaching him, making public his sad sufferings, he hopes it will induce all those who have escaped this fearful disease, to give thanks to God for his goodness to them From Glasgow Courier, P —

EDINBURGH, -No. 26, ST. ANDREW SQUARE. LONDON, _„No. 61 A, MOORGATE STREET. GLASGOW, No. 63, ST. VINCENT STREET.

The SEVENTEENTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING was held at Edinburgh, on 2d May 1848.

The REPORT then made stated, that during the year ended 1st March 1848, the number of Policies issued was FIVE HUN- DRED AND SIXTY-FIVE.

The SUMS thereby ASSURED amounted to Three Hundred and Forty-two Thousand, Pour Hundred and Seventy Pc unds.

And the PREMIUMS and ENTRY-MONEY to Twelve Thousand, Seven Hundred and Fifty-nine Pounds.

The TOTAL SUM ASSURED at 1st March 1848, after deducting Lapsed and Surrendered Policies, amounted to Two Trillion, Wine Hundred and Eighty-four Thousand, Eight Hundred and Seventy-eight Pounds.

The REVENUE of the Society to One Hundred and Ten Thousand, Seven Hundred Pounds.

And the ACCUMULATED FUND to Pour Hundred and Forty-five Thousand, Six Hundred and Seventy-three Pounds. Scotitsfj €£

The SCOTTISH EQUITABLE being a MUTUAL ASSURANCE SOCIETY, their Profits are not, as in Proprietary Companies, divided between the Partners of the Companies and the Assured. The WHOLE belong to the Policy- Holders, among whom they

are ALLOCATED every THREE YEARS. It is, therefore, im-

possible for any Assurance Office to give greater advantages to Assurers than are given by this Society.

The PROFITS or BONUSES may, in the Option of the Assured,

be applied thus : —

1st, They may be ADDED TO THE SUM ASSURED, pay-

able at Death ; or,

2d, They may be COMMUTED INTO A PRESENT PAY-

MENT to the Policy-Holders ; or,

3d, They may be APPLIED IN REDUCTION OF THE FUTURE ANNUAL PREMIUMS.

The AN. UAL REVENUE of the SCOTTISH EQUITABLE now (June 1848) exceeds One Hundred and Twelve Thousand Pounds.

The following is a VIEW of the progress of the Society down to 1st March 1848.
