A BSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN- C -3, - FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-hill, London, E. G. 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, an 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 cittlls 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 denase, when even a de fault is made in payment of the premium, a fixed sum in respect of every ptemium paid, bearing the same propor tion to tie 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 Besides this importnia al vantage, every pacy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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 Company on these points, as is th .- 3 case with ordinary assurances. Creditors assuring the lives of debtors will appreciate this feature as one greatly protective of their interests, and it will likew'se commend itself to bankers, capitalists, and others who are iu 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 bo withos any conditions as to voyacincr, foreign residence, or other usual limitations. By this free dom r from restrictions of all kinds the objections before referred to will be entirely removed, and the Policies will becomo 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-five years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this el tss as security, may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to advance so as to maintain the full . benefit of the Assuratzes—a matter of great importance where policies are held as collateral security. It is only'necessars- - to add that, as a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitah7e and uncon j ditional, they will 815-) be unchallengeable on any krouud whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. . The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of £215,000 a year lts position is un questionable, and it obtains the larest amount of row business of any office in the Kingdom.

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, On first to establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor, without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions and legacies. It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, the average number of attendance of te e destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged - tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly. Tho Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent, as the premises of this hospital are capable of containing several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds to maintain tb,..m.

Information from several trustworthy sources leaves DJ doubt that President Grant's Ministry have deter mined to give neither aid nor recognition to the Cuban insurgents. But it does- not appear that this policy was very eagerly embraced. According to the Philadelphia Public Leaver, a Cabinet Council was held on May llth, and a strong party of Ministerswasinfavonrof recognising tl;e Cubans. But this policy was rejected. The Government are in receipt of information that the Cuban insurgents are not making any headway, and that but little remains of the Cuban force except detached parties, acting as guerrillas. This kind of warfare, it is said, may last for some time, but the Spanish army expects to put an end to the insur rection soon. This information is given, not by the Spaniards, but by an American' agent specially seht over to Cuba, and may, therefore, be regarded as decisive. AUSTRIA AND PRUSSIA. The Nene F, ie Prase of Vienna states that the Queen of Prussia and the Crown Prince are both strongly in favour of peace, and are now engaged in attempt ing to brht about a better understanding between the Powers of Central Europe. An interview between the sovereigns of France, Prussia, and Austria is not im probable. Negotiations have been opened for this purpose, but Count Bismarck will not countenance the projects unless the Emperor Napoleon take part in it. This news is satisfactory ,enough, but the special necessity for such an interview is not at all apparent. Recent events in Italy are disquieting ; but on the whole the situation is more peaceful than at any previous time during the last three years. 'THE LUXEMBURG FORTIFICATIONS. The vigorous representations of the Prussian Govern- ment have produced a salutary effect upon the dilatory municipality of Luxemburg. The conference held at London on the Luxemburg question in May 1867 decided that the fortifications of the city should be destroyed. The local authorities accordingly commenced the work of demolition; but the rate of progress was so slow that the whole cost involved is said to have been not more than thirty shillings a week ! Prussian protests have, however, materially accelerated this pace. A very large bastion, commenced 1556,„amLuPt finished until 1697, has , just been blown tp. Th 6 task of destroying this historical fortification, with walls twenty feet in thickness, was both difficult and dangerous, but it has been accomplished without accident. SPAIN. Further details of the Carlist conspiracy at Barcelona by no means tend to diminish the gravity of the earlier reports. More than one hundred persons have been arrested. Amongst these are two colonels, several commandants and subordinate army officers, a prebendary of the cathedral, and twelve priests. Divers important and compromising documents have been found, one of them hinting darkly at the assassination of Espartero. A junta had been nominated beforehand to take the direc- tion of affairs, if the movement succeeded. All these functionaries in posse have been arrested. It is noteworthy that the Republican deputies in the Cortes who threatened to withdraw if the monarchy were voted still keep their seats. This change of purpose is owing to a declaration made by the representatives of the majority, that the Republicans should enjoy under the Monarchy the full right of discussion and propagation accorded to all other opinions. The new Constitution does undoubtedly preserve on paper the most complete freedom of speech and pen. What the Republicans could hope to gain by withdrawing from the Legislature, except by attempting another revolution, it is impossible to imagine. A SPANISH INTRIGUE. The London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian states that Senor Tassara, the newly-appointed plenipo tentiary front Spain, is daily expecting his recall. "The mistake is ascribed to him of having foreseen and fore shewn what is not unlikely to be the public talk ere many days are past. lam credibly informed that the French Emperor is of opinion that the solution of the Spanish difficulty that would suit his interest best would be the recognition of the Prince of the Asturias as successor to his mother, who might be induced to abdicate in his favour rather than see her children sup planted by the Montpensiers and their offspring. As General Prim's consent is deemed indispensable to the peaceful accomplishment of this arrangement, he is said to have been allowed to name his own terms ; and, for reasons that need not be mentioned, there will be no difficulty of course on the part of Marshal Serrano. A six years' lease of power, it is thought, would satisfy the head of the army, if be can gulp his recent vehement protestations that the Bourbons in Spain are henceforth impossible. If he cannot or will not agree to be moire du palais of the boy king, then Spain must prepare for a civil NV a r. " QUIET IN EASTERN EUIVTE. The intelligence from the East of Europe is of a very pacific character. The Pafrie states that not a single Cretan family remains in Greece, and that the greatest tranquillity prevails throughout King George's dominions. In Crete grim-visaged war has so effectually smoothed his wrinkled front that the Porte has withdrawn nearly the whole of its troops from the island. From Roumania the news is not less reassuring. Bratiano, late the Chief Minister, and the leader of the agitation party, is so dis couraged by the reaction against him that he lots resolved to take no part in the parliamentary proceedings. He projects a tour of several months' duration. RUSSIAN CONQUEST IN CENTRAL ASIA. general Kaufmann, Governor-General of Turkestan, has made the very important announcement that the Russsian Government designs no further conquest in Central Asia, and that a time of peace will now follow. It is rarely, indeed, that Russian diplomacy, formidable for its reticence, makes an admission of this kind, and considerable value must be attached to it. Affairs in Cen tral Asia are now comparatively quiet. RAILWAY ITEMS.—The Illinois Central Railroad Company gives notice that theannual meeting of the Stock holders will be held at the office of the company, in Chicago, Illinois, on Wednesday, May 26th.—At a meet ing of stockholders of the East Pennsylvania Railroad Company, in Reading, the directors were authorized to declare a stock dividend of 100 per coat. clear of all taxes, payable to stockholders on the 12th of May, and also to leaie the road for nine hundred and ninety-nine years to the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com pany.
