(From the Anglo-American Times.) Itis amusing to read the comments of the Thames boatmen on the Harvard crew, on whom advice is showered in the kindliest spirit, and with a devo tion so earnest as to lead to the supposition that they had backed Harvard against Oxford. The American boats have been taken to pieces, and con demned as too long, too high at the extremities, too low in the middle, one considering them not firm, and the men badly placed; anotberremarkably stiff, riding through ripples like the old Thames wherries. The builders were in the dark about carrying a coxswain, and although the boats are beautifully constructed, they are said to contain too much wood. Arr. Elliott crossed in the City of Boston, and he will have the opportunity of correcting any defects he may detect, and comparing his work with that of English builders in case he has to accom modate a coxswain in any future boat. A new one built for them by Salter, of Oxford, arrived at Nancy on Thursday, and yesterday the crew were to try it. She was not due till to-day, but Salter has hastened the work to the utmost, that the Atn..!- ricans might have as much time as pos s ible to get accustomed to their racing craft. For some days they have been practising in a boat lent them by the London Rowing ('lub, not built for so heavy a crew, but still believed to be an improvement on their own. Their style has been much criticised, and on the whole unfavourably, but it is considered to have improved rapidly in consequence,we presume, of the abundance of advice, and the examples furnished. Some deplore the errors which the Americans per sist in. Others assert that theywill be surely beaten if they continue so to trust to the musclesof theirarms using so little the swing and their legs. Many ad vise that they should put themselves under Kelley ; to this a writer in the Standard says, that if they - row - in an English boat, in English style, trained by an Englishman, the race will cease to be that of an American against an English University, be coming only a Thames contest. Another replies that such are precisely the races yearly run between Oxford and Cambridge. Practice has been steadily maintained, be the day wet or dry, a double row daily ; and all their critics agree in declaring the improvement to be marked. Nor do any dispute the physique of the men, whose fine wiry well-formed muscular frames have excited a readily-expressed admiration. The day has not yet been fixed, though narrowed to the margin of the 25th, 26th, 27th, and 28th. Mr. Seymour crossed with Mr. Elliott in the City of Boston, and we presume he is now at Putney. The crew will sit thus :—Mr. Loring, stroke, list. 61b.; Mr. Simmons,l2st.lolb.; Mr. Rice, list. 61b ; Mr. Bass, bow oar, 11st. 81b.; and Mr. Burnham, the coxswain, Bst. 41b. ; and we anticipate little difference from this by the time the race is run. The Oxford men are heavier, but their coxswain being 151 b. lighter, brings the total very close. The squadron programme at Cowes for Thursday was a race for the Town Cup, a piece of plate value £lOO, presented by the inhabitants of the town of Cowes, open to all yachts of not less than 30 tons, belonging to any Royal Yacht Club ; yawls to have half their tonnage added, and cutters to have two-thirds of their tonnage added. Queen's Course. The following vessels started :—The Vanguard, Volante, Pantomime, Aline, Alarm, Cam bria, Oimara, Flying Cloud, Dion e,Arrow, Egerta, Condor, Julia, and the Psyche. The race was a very splendid affair, but it was won easily by the Arrow. The annual dinner of the Royal Yacht Squadron was given at the . Castle on Wednesday evening. Among the many present were Vice- Commodore J. G. Bennett, of the New York Yach t Club, and several American gentlemen who are accompanying Mr. Bennett on board the American schooner yacht Dauntless on his present visit to Europe.

ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLE, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-hill, London, E.C. Established 1848. The Directors of this 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, i n; ne 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 sum in respect of every premium paid. bearing the same propor tion to the total amount assured as the number of pre miums actually paid may bear to the 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. The assured will thus.always have the option of retain ing either an ascertained fixed sum payable at decease, 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 Oompany on these points, as is the ease 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. _ _ SOTENTIFIO AND ORNAMENTAL PRESENTS.

COMB, !hot; Queen-street Giamidet In addition to the foregoing statement of advantages, the number of premiums is strictly defined. The longest term provided for is twenty-five 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 unchallengeablo 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• questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new buiineas of any office in the Kingdom.
