The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob- _ . jection not unfrequently urged by persons invited itT 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.

GEORGE REID, Secretary. RUPTURES.—BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT. WHITE'S MOO-MAIN LEVER TRUSS (Perfected and Exhibited in the Great Exhibitions of 1851 and 1862) is allowed by upwards of Five Hundred Medical men to be the most effective invention in the curative treatment of HERNIA. The use of a steel spring, so often hurtful in its effects, is here avoided—a soft bandage being worn round the body, while the requi site resisting power is supplied by the Slot-Main Pad and Patent Lever, fitting with so much ease and closen:.ss that it cannot be detected, and may be worn during sleep. A descriptive circular may bo bad, and the truss, which can rot fail to fit, forw.krdei by post, on the circumference of the body, two inches below the hips, being sent to the manufacturer, 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 callod upon to advance so as to maintain the full benefit of the A ssurances—a mattiht Irreaffffireirtance where p ads 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.

(From the Anglo-American Times.) The State elections were to take place last Mon day in Kentucky, on Tuesday in Alabama, onThurs day in Tennessee, on Tuesday next in Montana, and before going to press we may learn the result of all but the last. The Democrats were, of course, triumphant in Kentucky, J. W. TATE being elected State Treasurer by a majority of 40,000. But it is in Tennessee that the interest centres, the canvass being described as exciting. There the side issues add to the interest, as on SENTEII'S election will pro bably hinge the succession of ANDREW JOHNSON to the seat FOWLER vacates in the Senate in 1871. Political affairs have assumed a confused aspect in the unreconstructed States, but even more so in Tennessee. Both SENTER and STOKES, the rival candidates for Governor, profess Republican prin ciples ; but, as neither could procure the regular nomination of the Republican Convention, they are running independently. SENTER succeeded BROWN LOW as Governor, and uses the office he holds un scrupulously to further his own election. By a re cent decision of the Supreme Court of the State the Governor's right was affirmed to remove Registrars, and he has replaced every one with creatures of his own, who, annulling the franchise laws, have issued certificates to all who will vote for their patron. As the Democrats had to choose between the pre sent Governor and the " bald-headed eagle of the mountain," as STOKES is called from his beak-like nose and bald crown,they selected SENTER; singularly and suspiciously enough, both ANDREW JOHNSON and PARSON BROWNLOW have combined in his favour. After the flood-gates of Democracy had been thus opened, the rush threatening every Republican bul wark, alarmed the Radicals ; but it is now thought to be too late to check the tide of Conservative success, and it is generally believed that power in the State of Tennessee will return to Democratic hands, when the "Rads" will find themselves in a bad way in that State. Nor will SENTER and BROWNLOW, if the Conservatives secure the suc cess they anticipate, be able to control the po sition the real master of it being ANDREW JOHNSON. BROWNLOW has written a long address to the Tennessee negroes, wherein he denies that he had sold his party or formed an alliance offensive and defensive with ANDREW JOHNSON. Endependent of the important political issue at stake, the manner in which the campaign has been conducted added to the excitement. The candidates proceeded from town to town, " slang-whanging" each other on the same platform. STOKES is elderly, with a wife and family; SENTER comparatively young, being only 35 ; but the senior, retorting to some sarcastic and insolent allusions to himself, offered to fight the younger within 30 days after the election, which SENTER, promptly accepting, proposed to fight there and then. Yet this is mere acting for the amusement of the vulgar, as the " bald-headed eagle" had no carnage in view, and SENTER no occasion forpistolling his opponent, his success being almost assured. As regards the unreconstructed tatcs, thesuppor ters of Mr. WELLs have sent a delega tion to remain in Washington until Congress decides on the late election in Virginia. They allege that half the Cabinet support them ; Secretaries BOUTWELL, CRESWELL, and ROBESON being named as in their favour, though unwilling to reject the Constitution as adopted. Mr. WALKER, the Governor elect, has made a speech at Binghamp ton, New York. He alleges that in the contest virtue, property, and intelligence triumphed in that election over villany organized into midnight associations, which appealed to the lowest pas sions. The enthusiasm has been created by the re lief the victory gives from "carpet-bag" rule, knock ing off the white man's shackles, while conferring equal rights on the blacks. Mr. WALKER says : " We have given every white man his rights under the laws, and the rights of coloured men are now better pro tected in Virginia than they are in this, my native place. We are reconstructed on the right basis—the principles of justice and equality. And here I beg leave to repeat to you that Virginia will soon take the laurels of empire from the brow of New York, and advance to the lead of all the States in the Union." According to a telegram of Monday, however, the latosedattempt to contest the Virginia election is be hheveriobe abandoned. Mr. D ENT, the Conser va ti e Republican candidate for Governor of Mississippi, has been strongly supported by the Democratic meetings in that State. Our readers are aware that Secretary BOUTWELL had taken decided ground against this " Conservative-Republican" movement in the South, under cover of which the Democrats are artfully carrying the elections. It was evident that several Radical politicians had become alarmed, among them the Secretary of the Treasury, who, it now transpires, wrote a letter strongly opposing Judge DENT, which drew on him, if report speaks true, the marked censure of the PRESIDENT. We repeat the hope we last week expressed in dread of some such action, that nothing may occur to inter rupt harmony in the Cabinet or to interfere with the good work Mr. BOUTWELL is now so actively carrying on. Should there be a split, something not wholly dissimilar to what happened with AN DREW JOHNSON may take place as regards ULYSSES GRANT, which the late PRESIDENT and many other Democrats have long confidently predicted. But we feel as confident that they will not be gratified, even did the Cabinet differ, for GRANT, is above every thing, a moderate man, therefore any one who quar rels with him is likely to be in the wrong; while his predecessor was an obstinate extremist, who gene rally succeeded in rutting all his opponents in the right. ANDREW JOHNSON weakened any party to which he attached himself, but ULYSSES GRANT is a party in himself, and although his term might be made disagreeable, and shorn of much of its utility by unseemly contentious, yet his Administration can never be reduced to the cypher into which fell that just ended, powerful as the Radicals may remain. At the same time, it is more than likely that this Mississippi election, the probable triumph of the Democrats in Tennessee, and their victory in Vir ginia, have caused a disagreement, and Mr. BOUT WELL may have been led into the course the PRE SIDENT is said to have censured by the Radical Delegation from Mississippi, who proceeded to Washington to urge on the Administration the use of its patronage against Judge DENT. They ear nestly endorsed the view already taken of this Conservative movement by the Secretary of the Treasury, asserting it to be a guanine Democratic revival. The interests of the HAMILTON party of Texas, in Washington, have been entrusted to Colonel THOMAS OCHILTREE, formerly of the Con federate Army, but now a Republican of the LONG STREET school. He has addressed the Texans, strenuously advocating the support of a Republican ticket throughout, not confining it to the election of a Republican Governor alone, but selecting good Conservative Republicans for the Legislature. If we attached ourselves to any party, it would be to that of the Conservative Republicans, as we under stand it; but we confess to no small share of Secretary BOUTWELL'S suspicion as regards this un doubtedly successful Southern movement. It is possible that the PRESIDENT may control it, in which case it can only be productive of good, and have our hearty sympathy and support ; but men so violent as Southerners in their political opinions cannot complain if so sudden a conversion to mo deration be regarded with suspicion. By telegram of yesterday we learn that three were ofthe six Con gressmen elected in Alabama which is all gain to that party, the Republicans only securing the other three.
