The interest received during the year is £117,584 75. 3d., arising from the productive portion of the realised assets of £2,897,157, mentioned in the last year's report. The whole assets,roductive and unproductive, may there fore be considered as having improved at the rate of rather more than 4 per cent. ; or, if th e p ro fit s h own o f £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in cluded, at upwards of £sl2s. per cent. The premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. 9d., and of this sum £3,270 15s. 4d. has been expended in re assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly iden tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than those of last year by nearly £19,000. A considerable reduction, too, appears in the amount of premiums paid for re-assurance, many of the' risks re-assured having terminated by death and other causes. The expenses of management are less than those of last year by upwards of £1,400. But they still include charges incurred in the final closing of the two officeslast absorbed by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in cluding income tax, is at the rate of little more than 51 per cent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : DR. LIABILITIES.

The directors also draw attention to the su-cessful esta blishment during the past year of the Britannia Fire Association, under the auspices of the Briton. The direc tors believe that the establishment of a Fire Company, to work in active co-operation with the Life, will tend much to the advantage and profit of both institutions.

Sir Charles Locock, Bart, D.C.L., P.R.S. Extracts from the Report of the Direct() s, presented at the Actual General Meeting held on the 27th November, 1868 : 1. The sum of £412,345 was proposed for Assurance, of which £307,395 was completed at Premiums pro ducing £10,067 per Annum. 2. The amount paid under Claims by death was £100,883, being the smallest since 1860, whilst the expenses of management and all other outgoings were even less than for many years past. 3. On the other hand, the Income was raised to £219,769, notwithstanding that its increase was retarded by abatements of premium which did not take effect in the previous year, and by the cessation of interest on the large sum paid as Bonus iu 1867. 4. The Surplus income was very considerable. It amounted to £93,152, a sum exceeding by more than £B,OOO any previous Surplus during the forty-four years of the Society's existence. 5. The Accumulated Fund was thereby increased to £1,598,906. The following are among the distinctive features of the Society : CREDIT SYSTEM.—On any Policy for the w' ole of Life, where the age does not exceed 60, one-half of the Annual Premiums during the past five years may remain on cred . t. ENDOWMENT ASSURANCES may be effected, without Profits, by which the Sum Assured becomes pay able on the attainment of a specified ago, or at death, whichever event shall first happen. INVALID LIVES may be assured at rates proportioned to the increased risk. PROMPT SETTLEMENT OF CLAIMS.—Claims paid thirty days after proof of death. Tables of Rites and Forms of Proposal can be obtained of any of the Society's Agents, or of GEORGE CUTCLIFFE, Actuary and Secretary. 13, St. James's-square, London, S.W. ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN_ FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-bill, London, E.G. Established 1848. The Directors ofthis Company, in deference to an ob jection not unfrequently urged by persons invited to as sure, that the ordinary mode of Life Assurance is in their opinion defective or uncertain, by reason of the operation of the customary conditions, have resolved to promulgate the present Tables, and to issue Assurances under them which shall be absolutely Unforfeitable, Unconditional, and Unchallengeable. For the reason referred to, many persons hesitate or decline to assure on the ground that, in the event of in ability or unwillingness to continue payment of their pre miums, the Assurance will become forfeited. To this class of the public the system now introduced will espe cially commend itself, being entirely free from all condi tions of forfeiture on account of non-payment of premium, or from any other cause whatever; while at the same time it absolutely guarantees at decease, when even a de fault is made in payment of the premium, a fixed num in respect of every premium paid, blaring the same propor tion to the total amount assured as the number of pre miums actually paid may bear to tho whole number origi nally contracted to be paid. Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance. g T e h i e th a s s r s u s r u e d u s w e s i I r l tra t u u e s d a w fix y d s h s u a m ve t p h a e y a b optionle at o f d r e e u e t a as i or, in case of need, of withdrawing a certain amount, ac cording t the duration of the Policy, such amounts being set forth on every Policy, and rendering unnecessary any future reference to the Company on these points, as is the case with ordinary assurances. Creditors assuring the lives of debtors will appreciate this feature as one greatly protective of their interests, and it will likewise commend itself to bankers, capitalists, and others who are in the habit of making advances collaterally secured by Life Policies, as they can at any time learn, by mere inspection, the exact value, either immediate or re versionary, of a Policy of this description. Every Policy issued on this plan will be without any conditions as to voyaging, foreign residence, or other usual limitations. By this freedom from restrictions of all kinds the objections before referred to will be entirely removed, and the Policies will become at once positively valuable as actual securities. In addition to the foregoing statement of advantages, the number of premiums is strictly defined. The longest term provided for is twenty-fiye years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this class as security, may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to advance so as to maintain the full benefit of the Assurances—a matter of great importance where policies are held as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengeable on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies: The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of £215,000 a•year. Its position is un uestionable, and it obtains the lar g est am ount of new business of any office in the Kingdom. SPECIAL AGENTS WARTED. HENRY HARBEN, Secretary. A.D. 1720.

A very interesting letter, dated from Nevada, and signed William A. Begole, appeared in the San Francisco Mining and &ientific Press on the 6th March, advancing in a confident tone the writer's explanation, for the geological changes in our globe, and like wis.A of earthquakes. "We are living on a sphere which revolves around the :31113—not in a perfect circle, but with an orbit of an elliptic form ; and at the same tiam it is making 3G5 rcvolutioua per annum upon its own axis. Nuw the question naturally arises, does one motion affect, or have any influence, upon the other? I cannot but think it does. Thu., as it passes from the flit side of the ellipse to the ends,—.or in other words, from a long curve to a short one, —the two forces embodied in the earth must necessarily have a twisting effect-- the orbit motion or. the revolving motion,—conse- Tien tly gradually changing the position of the poles and equator. We have various facts that go to prove that this change does take place ; for in stance, we find the remains of plants and animals imbedded in coal beds and rock in the Frigid Zone, which are now known to inhabit none but the Torrid Zone. How came they there? Simply because the equator was once there. Professor Agassiz has also discovered the re:n tins of immense glaciers in the Andes of South Am3rica, directly under the equator. How cum they there? Only by once having had one of the poles at least nearer than at present. Now, admitting that this theory of the changing of the poles is correct, let us see what the effect would be upon the globe. The earth is said to•be about forty-five miles thicker through at the equator than it is at the poles ; making twenty two and one-half miles depression of the ball on each side of the equator ; and as it is about six thousand miles from the equator to the poles, we have a down grade of about nineteen feet to the mile. If the earth's motion were stopped, the water from the equator would commence rushing to the poles and fill up that twenty-two miles and a half, or until all parts of the surface of the earth would be at an equal distance from the centre. But as the earth revolves at the immense velocity of about one thousand miles an hour, it throws back the waters from the poles towards the equator suffi ciently to counteract the attraction of gravitation on the down grade to the poles, and keeps up a perfect equilibrium ; and the waters remain comparatively of a uniform depth. If the solid earth were not of spheroid shape, but perfectly round, there would be all land at the poles, and all water at the equator. The point that I wish to advance, bear ing upon geology and the causes of earthquakes, is that as this change of the poles goes on, the surface of the earth must necessarily change with it, for if it did not, the earth would get out of balance, or, in other words, would not run true, and would soon make a wreck of itself. But if the earth is a shell enclosing soft material, as most geologists con cede it to be, then the crust would necessarily yield and conform itself to that motion ; and as the surface is composed of two substance. , , a fluid and a solid, of course the fluid, which predominates, is always ready to yield to it, as we see exemplified in our ocean currents, which are constantly flowing from one part of the world to another, to keep it in perfect balance. This, too, is probably the reason why we have so much more water upon the surface of the earth than land, for God never made any thing for naught. If the land predominated, it would have an unsteady motion, and would evi dently destroy itself. ‘Ve have had an evidence of the changing of the ocean currents since the earthquake at St. Thomas, as it is said that the Gulf Stream has changed several degrees since that event from its old course ; and perhaps in a few thousand years, or after a few more such earthquakes, the streams may be destroyed entirely, or flow in some other direction to:supply some deficiency cleated elsewhere. I have endeavoured to show the effect of this change of motion upon the fluid part of the earth. Now let us see what effect it would have upon the solid portion. Of course, that must yield and conform to it also, .but as it is not free to move like the water it will have a tendency to rise up bodily at the equator and sink down at the poles; but when it moves it goes in small sections at a time, and gives way with a sudden jar or quaking 'notion. If it is in a por tion of the world that is rising there will be two dis tinct shocks; one is the upward 'notion, the other is the vibration of the rocks caused by that motion. If it is in a portion of the earth that is sinking three will be but one shock at a time, a sudden downward jar, fir it tightens on the surface and prevents any vibration ; and the latter consequently are less de structive. Upheavals loosen the surface, set it to vibrating, and are therefore more destructive in their effects. Thus the earth gives way, first in one part, then in another, in one hemi sphere, and then in another, on the land, and under the ocean ; and I venture to say that there is not a day passes in the year but there is an earthquake in some part of the world, perhaps not an hour. If it should give way in large sections at a time, they would be so destructive that it would render the world uninhabitable ; but by a wise provision of nature the rocks are full of joints and seams, allowing the crust of the earth to move in comparatively small sections. As I before re marked, we have twenty-two and one-half miles of difference between the extreme elevation of the equator, to the extreme depression of the poles (deducting the difference between the freedom of the water, and the resistance of the rocks to move); therefore an abundant margin to go upon, in con cludieg that there is here cause enough to sub merge the highest mountains or make dry land of the lowest depths of ocean. If the geologist will apply this principle to his science, he can readily account for all the geological changes which are constantly going on in the earth ; for as one portion of the earth is lifted above the water, and as the vapours of the ocean rise and float over the land, the latter is condensed, falls in the shape of rain, and washes off the loose par ticles into the ocean, where each particle of a like specific gravity will be deposited in strata of like character, and by the immense pressure of the ocean they will be speedily converted into rocks, to be again submerged. Aud thus the work goes on from age to age. The idea has been advanced that earthquakes are caused by electricity. Would it not be better to say that the appearance of elec tricity on such occasions is the result, and not the cause, of the earthquake. Let us see which theory looks the most reasonable. We know that friction excites electricity ; and if an earthquake takes place, there must be a powerful friction in the joints or crevices of the rocks. We see the evi dence of this immense friction of one mass of rocks upon another in working our quartz veins. There will always be, in a true fissure vein, one side of it, a thin stratum of clay, or very finely pulverized rock, which I know of no way to account for but by the friction of the adjoining rock caused by the earthquakes. These same veins themselves are nothing more than immense cracks in the rock, caused by the earthquakes, and filled again by the circulation of the waters of the earth containing minerals. Like the blood of the human system, which is always ready to repair any injury done to it, so the waters of the earth—its blood—are ever ready to perform a like office."
