The whole assets, productive and unproductive, may there fore be considered as having improved at the rate of rather more than 4 per cent. ; or, if the profit shown of £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in cluded, at upwards of £5 12s. per cent.

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.

A I3SOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CIIALLENGEABLIL issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-hill, London, E.C. Established 1848. The Directors of this Company, in deference to en oh jectiou not unfrequently urged by persons invited to as sure, that the ordinary mode of Life Assurance is in their opin7on 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 Unforfeitablo, Unconditional, and Unchalengeable. . For the reason referred to, many persons Irsita 4 e or decline to assure cm the ground that, in the event of in ability or unwillingness to continue payment of their pre miums, the Assurance will beemu,) forfeited. To this c7ass of the public the system now introduced will espe cialls commend itself, being entirely frea from ll condi tions of forfeiture on account of non-payment of premium, or from any other cause whatever; while at the Fame time it absolutely guarantees at d 3 tea.P, when even a de fault is made in payment of the p.-aminrn. a fixefi sum in respect of every pi emium paid, baring the same propor tion to the total amount assured as the number of pr'- minms actually paid may hear 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurapce. The assured will thlIA 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 Company on these points, as is the case with ordinary assurances. . . Creditors assuring the lives of debtors will appreciate this fentnre as one greatly protective of their interests, and it. wig likew'se 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 witho4 any conditions as to voyaging , . foreign residence, or other csual 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 posit:yoly valuable as actual securities. • In addition to the foregoing statement of advantages, the number of premiums is strictly defined. The 1-umest term provided for is twenty-fire years, and the shortest five years, ns shown by the Tables. Thus, hankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this cllss as security, may always know the utmost amount they may he called upon to .advance so as to maint-tin the full benefit of the Assuran3es—a matter of great importance where policies are hell as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as a consequence of the policies under these table s helng unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallongeable on any around whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. . The PRUDEN TIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of £215,000 a year Its position is un• questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new bucineess of any office in tho Kingdom.

N'S TBSTIMON. MTXLZ. The Eracycnl Cb e ver reports at great length a meeting of a singularly interesting character held in St. George's 11a1 1 , b that town, on Monday.

The present to Mr. Miall consisted of two beautiful book-cases, in, walnut, containing a selection of standard works in ecclesiastical and general history, poetry, biography, and books of reference; to Mrs. Mall, gilt and enamil F,ench clock and candelabra; and Miss Miall, a cottage p'anoarte, in walnut. These several giits coot in the aggregate 00. Mr. Titus Salt presid,d; and speeches wore delivered by Mr. Miall, MX., Mr. Illiugworth, M.P., Mr. It. Mit, Mr. O. Turner, Mr. A. Holden, Mr. White head, and other gentlemen. EDUCATION MEETIAG AT LIVERPOOL A. largely attended meeting was held at the Liverpool Law Association Booms, on Monday, under the presi dency of the Bishop of Chester, to consider a proposal for the establishment of an education aid society on a basis similar to organisations which already exist in Man chester and Birmingham. The object of the pro- moters is to secure, if possible, the attendance at school of children who now run neglected in the streets, and it is proposed to achieve this desirable object by paying in whole or in part the school fees of children whose parents are too poor to pay those fees themselves. One great feature in the scheme is that it is altogether undenominational, and the . parents are themselves to be at liberty to select the school to which their children shall be sent. The Rev. Rector Campbell proposed, and Mr. W. Rathbone seconded, a motion for the establishment of the society. An amendment was proposed_ bz.,llr. Graves, seconded by the—Rev. Dr. Taylor, which limited the schools to those in which " the Holy Scriptures in the authorised version form the text book for daily instruction." The avowed object of thi amendment was to exclude Roman Catholic schools, Dr. Taylor holding that Protestants ought not voluntarily. to contribute to the teaching of a religion which they believed to be erroneous. Dr. Hume, however, ana_ others took another ground t it was better for a child to 133 educated in any religb n than not at all, and the majority of the meeting endorsed this view of the subject by rejecting the amendment, the votes being G 9 against 43. A committee was appointed to put the society in working order. THE CHURCH CONFERENCE AT SHEFFIELD. The Church Conferenoo began its sittings in Sherds:ld, on Monday, under the presidency of the Archbishop of York, who had called it. His Grace said his object was " that Church people, both clerical and lay, having tho interests of the Church of England at heart, might meet together in some place, and by mutual interchange of orinions, freely expressed, but expressed in love, advise ono another, stimu late one another, even perhaps admonish one another." Convocation was not a fair representation of the Church of England. .r 4. Cathedral clergy were too prominent, and the laity did not appear at all, and he thought there had been a great fault or a groat mistake in thn s past that the clergy had taken so little counsel with their lay brethren, to whom alter all they must look for ln-lp and assis'ance, wl.o are the army if they a:e to le- called the 01i‘;:.r..1, aid who have a real and a substinti d place in the Church, ani are in every IVa!' ministers because they are the servants of Cod and of Christ. His grace then explained the programme of the conference, and called upon Archdeacon Jones, of York, who opened the discussion with a paper on " the in dent supply of properly qualided clergy." The Arclidetwon said i` was true that fewer graduates of distinguished ability offered themselves for the ministry. The Church as a profession now presented lugs temptation to aole who locked forward to prominent positions fr, in interest as well as ability. Subsequently at the evening sitting Mr. Dunn, another speaker, sug . erted that a lesson should be ttjken from the Wesleyan Methodists' manner of perpetually increasing the number of their ministers. lie also Loped that the day was not far distant when any man who, front conscientious convictions or chang.:s of opinion, found himself in the wrong place as a minister of the Church of England, would be permitted to withdraw ins , cad of being tied by law to remain in the priesthood. Mr. 11. Wake held that one cause of their weak noes was to be found in not utilising the pecuniary resources of the Church. Ilia plan would be to "bring into ono dish" all the endowments, and having ascertained the wants of each locality, distribute the funds accordingly. Mr. Foljambe, M.P., avowed that some imminent change in the position and constitution of the Established Church was not ot.lyc not to be deprecated, but rather to be invited by all who not mere'y cling to the letter of bygone institutions, but wish to see the spirit of them carrit d forward in the only way possible unier pre sent circumstances, and the usefulness a•id efficiency of the Church dowloped in the fullest manner.• The same ape thor frankly expressed Lis desire to soo the Church surrender her political position, put an end to political patronage, and abolish what he considered to be the greatest scandal that es is lin any Cads - an Church—x hat ho could no'. lut call the "infamous" practice of haftleking the core of souls, or receiving money for the sale of advowsons. The archbishop, speaking on the came sul ject, advised Lis hearers not to attach too much importance to passing poli tical events in connection with religious matters. They had the assurance that a stronglifo was welling up in the Church of England which would not easily die. They might put their fears on one side and go about. their business, not in deed sure that the Church as an Establishment shall endure, but quite sure that whether it: endured: orinot, the Church of Christ founded upon a rock would endure as long as the world lasted. Mr. John Wild, a working man, read a paper on the influ ence of the Church among the working classes, which at tracted a good deal of attention. He thought the Church lost influence from the divisions of the clergy, which the working classes were not slow to perceive. Lord Wham cliffe said nothing did so much harm to the Church of Eng land among the working classes as the pew system. The services and sermons were too long, especially for the poor. lie also recommended the weekly offertory. Other speakers of various ranks and classes folloWed, and the Conference adjourned till Tuesday. The Western Mail states that is is now quite com mon to see the postmen in the neighbourhood of Cheltenham going their rounds upon velocipedes. Two men, William Hull and Richard William, re siding at Darlaston, were engaged at an iron blast furnace on Saturday, when a " tuyero" burst and burnt them horribly from head to foot. They died within a few hours. The Suez Canal Company, according to a rumour which has reached the Globe by telegraph, has concluded a convention with the Egyptian Government by which addi tional pecuniary assistance, to the amount of XBOO,OOO, is assured to the undertaking. With reference to the failure of a certain nobleman, mentioned by our London correspondent s the Western Doily Press states that his losses, which arise partly from backing bills for two other noblemen, exceed £400,000. One claim alone, on judgments, amounts to .V,OOO. His lordship has gone abroad. Her Royal Highness Princess Helena Augusta Victoria, Princess Christian, celebrated the twenty-third anniversary of her birthday on Tuesday. The usual peals were Ent forth from the Royal churches in London, and rejoic ings on a more extended scale have taken place at Windsor and Frogmore. At Castleford, on Monday, was held the first of a series of meetings, under the auspices of the Yorkshire Church A. oc'ati,n, in opposition to the Irish Church Bill. The Rev. W. T. Al. Sylvester, rector of the parish, presided. Resolutions were passed and speeches delivered strongly condemning the bill and urging its rejection. On Monday Sir Robert Clifton, M.P. for Notting ham, was stated to be better. The fever from which the hon. baronet is suffering has assumed more of the typhoid character than was at first suspected. He is now progress ing favourably under the medical superintendence of Mr. Joe. ph Thompson and Dr. Murchison, of London. The vicarage of Stowmarket is to be sold by auction on the Bth of June. It is described as being situate in a healthy, picturesque, and most enjoyable district, sur rounded by good society, and within two hours by rail of the metropolis.
