Notwithstanding that several new Mutts Insurance Cora pastes have been established within the la 4 few years, It is generally recognised that the moans of effecting marine insur. MOM are not sufficient to meet the increasing evpauelon of trade, insurers being now driven to effect their inenranons In remote towns in the provinces, in Ireland and Scotland, and on the Continents of Europe and America. The actual price of share• in the elleting Marina Insurance Companies demonstrates clearly that the business is highly re munerative. ifilthenerir companies ono only has been established In Liver pool, and It has ahmady mewed a very large and lucrative ban- Mere than half the exports and Imports of the kingdom pass through the port of Liverpool and there la no doubt, therefore, that another company having its chief offices to London and Liverpool will meet with ample support.

SVEbIINO; JANUARY 18. 1888. MONDAY POPULAR CONCERTS. These concerts, interrupted by the Christmas holidays, have been rimmed. That of last night was the one hundred and thirteenth of the entire series, or the eleventh of the fifth season ; and it showed the undimioished pope. kitty of them admirable performances ; for the dm ar weather—sufficient literally to throw a damp upon public entertainments —bad no effect, either in thinning the audi ence, or in lessening their enjoyment. And this was the more remarkable, as there was no peculiar attraction derived from novelty, either of pieces or performers. The principal feature of the concert was the piece with which it opened, Hummara " Military Septet" in C major, for the piano, violin, Bute, clarinet, violoncello, and °Dutra basso, played by Moen. Halle, &Mien, Pratten, Lawn; Ward, Piatti, and Severn. Though it is well known to the musical public, this was its first performance at these mooed,. In the hands of such accomplished performer, its execution of course was perfect, and it was listened to from beginning bend with the warmest deoloaatralboos of delight. The next instrumental piece was Beethoven's sonata for the pianoforte solo, the second of the three dedicated to ligyiln—one of the earliest and most beautiful works of the composer, combining the charming simplicity and symmetry of Mosert with the originality and vigour of his own peculiar style. We have no pianist more conver gent than Half with the works of Beethoven, and on this occasion be really outdid himself. Hs wasapplaudad to the echo, and the exquisite minuet and trio ware loudly and vehemently encored. The remaining instrumental pie were M ecdelssohn's finewdfaforthe piano and violon. cello, played by Halle and Yutti ; and Beethoven's fourth quartet in C minor, one of those early works in which be put forth the whole strength of his genius, and which even be himself in his after days was never able to excel. The vocal portion of the concert was injured by the ab ammo of Madame Sainton-Dolby, for whom several interest ing things had been set down in the programme. She was unable to appear, and an apology was made for her or. the score of sudden indisposition, duly vouched by • medical certificate. Miss Banks kindly undertook to sing the pretty air by the Russian composer Glinka, which she has sung at these ocumerta several times before, and Mr. Macfarren's " Never forget." Mr. Winn sang a sacred 'mg by Goosed —s somewhat ponderous imitation of old church music ; and something much better—the air "Now Plumbus sinketh in the west," from Aroe's Conius—a masterpiece of a great English composer, whose music, to the shame and scandal of the presisut age, is almost entirely neglected. DRAMA. ADELPRI. We are glad to find that Miss Marie Wilton has again joined the company at thin bons', where her versatile and peculiar talents ran hardly fail to be very useful and attractive. She EMU her appearance last night in the drama of the Little Treasure, playing her charming charac ter with all that natural feeling which distinguished the same performance on the night of Mr. Paul Bedford's benefit. We have so recently given our opinion of this embodiment that it is unnecei.aar) to repeat it ; but we may say that acting of more real sensibility—sensibility of the heart, not of the head—has rarely been witnessed on our stage. Mr. Billington played Captain Maidentilush very plesaingly,aud looked the part to the life. The other chit rasters were given to Mrs. Billington and Mr. Phillips. PRINCM'S.

PARIS, Jaw. 12. papers distributed to-day amongst the koa. deputies contain a review of the foreign policy of the empire, from which the following are extracts : "Italy remains the object of our solicitude. The recognition of the Italian kingdom by Prussia and Russia has given moral force to the cabinet of Turin at home and abroad, in addition to the means of resisting ill-considered impulses and to freedom from the influence of extreme portion. Italy 110 W possesses official relations with four great Powers. If the attitude of Austria remains exceptional, we continue to receive assurances from that Power based upon moderation and wisdom. The government of the Emperor is aware that it cannot hope the Peninsula will obtain a definitive organisation based upon durable peace asilong as disunion separates thePapacyfrom Italy. The Emperor ts not tunnindful of the agitation -*Welt ihb antagonism scansion to onsuocienom, An 4, has upon several occasions pointed out the tecessity of terminating this difference. "The resistance of one party and the exigencies of the other have demonstrated how much the public mind is wanting in the composure indispensable for agreeing equitably upon the conditions of recon ciliation. " Desirous to maintain the same line of policy as hitherto, the Emperor has thought it advisable to call around him men who have not participated in the previous discussions of the question, and who are consequently more favourably situated for assuming the task of conciliation of which the Emperor's letter, of the 28th May, defined the bases. " These intentions of his Majesty have been appre ciated in Italy, and the government has the satisfac tion of being able to point to the comparative calm which has succeeded the agitation in the Penin sula for which the Roman question formed the pretext. " Whilst the new Italian ministry has abstained from making promises which could not be realised, the Pontifical government has recognised the opportunity of granting those improvements in internal administration which have been advised by the Emperor. Assurances of the good intentions , of. the Holy Father have been received, and the Emperor's government has reason to believe that judicial reforms will not fail to be granted in these provinces which have remained under the sove reignty of the Pope." The review of the Imperial policy enters next into an explanation of the Greek question, which is discussed in accordance with the policy laid down in the recent circular of M. Drouyn de Lhuys. Mention is then made of the new arrangement which has been concluded between the Porte and Sends, by which the thorough execution of the Fir man of 1830 is conaidered to be secured. Respecting the Montenegrin question thegoveen ment of the Emperor did not think that the pro posed settlement ansaared sufficiently to thede claration of Turkey, and was of opinion that no territorial or administrative change bad been effected. France has maintained the right of the powers to examine in common with the miniaters of the Sultan the clauses of the Convention imposed upon the Montenegrins. The government of the Emperor has advised the Porte to renounce its right of establishing a military road through Mon tenegrine territory which, far from assuring the maintenance of tranquillity in the Turkish empire, would rather afford new pretexts for insurrection and war. France, Russia, and Turkey, have signed a con vention for the reconstruction of the cupola of the church of the Holy Sepulchre. With respect to the subject of mediation in America, the review states that it has been post poned in consequence of the refusal of England and Russia to join in the project, and continues : " The Emperor has not refrained from acquaint ing the cabinet of Washington that his government ie still ready to mediate, provided the American government desires that France should facilitate the task of peace, either alone or collectively, in whatever form may be pointed out to her. " The Mexican question hm entered an entirely military phase, of which it will be requisite to await the issue. The government of the Emperor confines itself to expressing its confidence that the expedi tion will soon terminate gloriously for our flag. The moment is not far distant when the success of our arms will secure the interests which have led our troops to Mexico, and those permanent guaran tees which we have so long demanded. " The government of the Emperor has also every confidence that our army and commerce will gain important advantages from the recent acquisition of territory in Cochin China, which will powerfully contribute to the extension of our relations with the extreme East." THE MINISTERIAL CHANGES IN TURKEY. FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE, J*s. 12. The Europe of to-day says :—"At the request of the representatives of the great powers a B&W- Scheriif of the Sultan will be published, declaring that the late change iu the ministry was by no means meant to inaugurate a retrograde policy." To-day negotiations have commenced at Berne with the object of concluding a treaty of commerce between France and Switzerland. The plenipotentiaries on both sides are M. de Turgot and Dr. Kern.

No speech was delivered by the President in the national council, but in the council of the estates the President touched upon the apprehension that might be entertained for the future. He regretted that Europeia not yet convinced of the truth that the happiness of nations is not founded upon dynastic interests, but upon spiritual and material progress. Without entering into particulars of American affairs, the Proaident expressed a hop. that the Union would be able to maintain its vitality with out foreign intervention, as was th e ease i n Switzer ' land during the period of the Sonderhued.

I Mho following snowed in nearly the whole of our law pngsginntot ysigerois t y evening :1 PAHL% Yoram Amazons. This day the session of the Legislative Chambers was opened by the Emperor Napoleon, in the fol lowing speed, " Messtrems LE4 SINATEIM, MIIIMIABDUP iri Domenic, " The Legislative Corps b about to commence lte • last session. To have anticipated the term awed by the constitution would have been in my eyes an aet, of ingratitude towards the Chamber, of distrust towards the country. The time is past when it Wit eokliddeied necessary to seize the missal= of some happy incident lb Mettle • tb.- - inzahigele of a limited number of electors. Now, everyone sees that these is no longer amongst the masses the fickleness of other days, and men's convictions are not changed by every passing breath that seems to agitate the political atmosphere. " &nee we find ourselves assembled for the last time, it will not be in vain to look back upon what we have dime together during the last five • years, for it is only by embracing a period of some dura tion that we can appreciate the consistent spirit which has marked the direction of affairs. People are usually pleased to seek in the acts of sovereigns concealed motives and mysterious combinations. My policy, however, has been very simple—to increase the prosperity of France and its moral ascendancy, without abusing as without enfee bling the power which has been committed to my i hands. Abroad, to favour within the limits of right and treaties the legitimate aspirations of the peoples towards a better future. To develop our commercial relations with the countries to which we are drawn by the greatest community of in tercets ' • to remove from diplomatic litigation ques tions long disputed, in order to take away all pretexts for misunderstanding. Finally, to prose cute boldly the reparation of every insult to our r flag, of every injury to our fellow-countrymen. " See how according to circumstances I have been enabled to apply these principles. "In the East the national desire of the Danubian Provinces to form only one people could not find us insensible, and our concurrence has contributed to cement their union. We have supported whatever was well-founded in the complaints of Servia, of Montenegro, and of the Christians of Syria, without disregarding the rights of the Ottoman Porte. Our arms have de fended the independence of Italy without com pounding with revolution—without impairing, be yond the field of battle, our good relations with our adversaries of a day—without abandoning the Holy Father, whom our honour and our past engagements obliged us to sustain. ' We have suppressed the causes of dispute ,11 which might have arisen with Spain, either from the on-settlement of boundaries, or from the old debt of '1823 ; and with Switzerland from the difference re specting the Valley of Dappee. Treaties of commerce have been, or are on the eve of being, concluded with England, Belgium, Prussia, Italy, and Switzer land. Finally, expeditions in China, in Cochin China, and in Mexico, prove that, however distant the countries may be, an attack on the honour of France canuot be made with impunity. " Such events have not occurred without occasion ing some complications. The path of duty always leads through dangers. Nevertheless, France has become enlarged by two provinces ' • the barriers which separated us from our ueigbbo urs have been lowered • a vast territory is opeued to our activity in the e xtreme East; and, what is much better than conquests, we have acquired titles to the sympathy of the peoples without losing the confidence and the esteem of governments. " During the years which have passed, it has been my lot to meet most of the sovereigns in person, and from these interviews have arisen amicable relations, which are so many pledges for the peace of Europe. This peace will not be dis turbed by the events which have taken place in Greece. "This rapid survey of the past answers for the future, and despite the pressure of unpropi tious events and opposite opinions, you will recog nise, I hope, that I have always followed with firmness the same bus of conduct. "In that which relates more particularly to home affairs, I have purposed, on the one hand, by a complete amnesty to e fface, so far as it was in my power, the recollection of our civil discords ; on the other, to increase the impor tance of the great Bodies of State, I have called you to take a more direct part in the conduct of affairs ; I have surrounded your deliberations with all the guarantees which liberty of discussion can demand ; I have renounced a prerogative which was until then deemed indispensable, in order to permit the Legislative Corps to con trol the public expenditure in a more absolute manner, and to give more solidity to the bases upon which public credit reposes. In order to relieve our finanoes, our army and navy have been reduced to more limited propor tions. The floating debt has been reduced, and by the success of the conversion of the Reutes a great step has been made towards the unification of . the debt. The indirect revenue augments unceas ingly, through the simple fact of the increase of the general prosperity ; and the situation of the Em pire would be flourishing if the American war bad not come to dry up one of the most fruitful sources of our industry. The forced stagnation of labour has engendered in many places a distress deserving all our solicitude, and a credit will be asked of you for succouring theme who suppot t with resignation the effects of a inutfortune which it does not depend upon us to arrest. Nevertheless, I have attempted to convey beyond the Atlantic counsels inspired by a sincere sympathy ; but, the great maritime Powers not having believed they could yet join me, I have been obliged to defer to a more fitting pe riod the offer of mediation, the object of which was to stop the effusion of blood, and to prevent the ex haustion of a country the future of which cannot be a matter of indifference " I will not enter with you into the details of several administrative ameliorations, such as the creation of the reserve of the army ; the reconstruc tion of the fleet ; institutions favourable to the poorer classes ; great public works ; encourage meets to agriculture, to the sciences, and to the arts ; the maintenance of the prosperity of our colonies, in spite of the suppression of negro immi gration ; the strengthening of our African posses sions by our care in gaining more and more the affections of the Arabian people, and in protecting our colonists. The ministerial survey of the situa tion of the Empire will unfold to you each of these measuree. . . . . " You are about to distinguish by useful la bours your cloning session ; and when you return to your respective departments do not allow your selves to forget that if we have surmounted many obstacles, accomplished many useful things, it is due to the devoted concurrence et the great Bodies of the State, and to the harmony which has reigned between us ; that, nevertheless, much re mains to be done to perfect our iostitutions, to dis seminate true ideas, and to aacust•,m the country to rely upon itself, Tell you fellow-citizens that 'ENCg I shall ever be ready to al that is for the interest of the greatest number hat if they have at heart to facilitate the work which has been com menced, to avoid the coadicts which cause uneasi ness, to fortify the constitution, which i s their work, let them send t o th e new C hamber men who, like yourselves, accept the actpal regime without reservation, who prefer to burin contests serious deliberations ; men who, animated by the spirit of the age and by genuine patriotism, enlighten in their independence the course o f th e government, and who never hesitate to place above the interest of s party the stability of the State and the great. nem of the country." KR. GLADSTONE AND THE THRONE or 011XMOZ. The Greek josses's& publish a letter addressed by Nr. Gledstosse to Cloent Mereatis, of which the fel lowing is the re-translation : " I have read with much interest the letter you have done me the hamar to write to mi ; and, according to year via, I have read it to Level Palmerston and to Earl Rumen.
