A BSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, Ug- FoRFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CIIALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-hill, Loudon, E.C. 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 th..! customary condbions, have resolved to promulglite the present Tables, -and-to issue. Assurances uuderikein 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 sum in respect of every pet - Ilium 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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 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-fire years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, hankers, 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 questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new business of any office in the Kingdom. SPECIAL AGENTS WANTED. HENRY HARBEN, Secretary. THE BEST REMEDY FOR INDIGESTION.

Offices, 73, Cheapside, E.C. cerne . d, some of the colonies which now flourished under the dominion of her Majesty—a dominion of which they had just cause to be proud—might find themselves under the stars and stripes of the United States. Should that happen they would find that they had made an exchange for a country of which they might also be proud, though he trusted that the day might be far distant when the possessions of England should be in any way cur tailed." There was a time when such a hint, and in the face of the Prime ;Minister of England, would have fired the British bosom, but now nobo ly is shocke I. The Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Earl GRANVILLE, thus jokingly alluded to what the Minister of the great Republic had said, " that at the moment he was unprepared to open negotiations with him for the cession of British Ca nada." A remark of the Prime Minister, in compli menting the Society for the grandeur of its object-- the unity of the British race—contains the true ex planation of the change which, iu this respect, has come over the people dwelling in Great Britain. Let Englishmen trace back their history, and learn how remarkably their sympathies have expanded with education, experience, and, more still, with the im proved facilities for travel and interchange of thought. Barbarism essentially narrows; civiliza tion widens. The tribe is the greatest expansion of government among savages, the single rule of a people occupying a continent is the opposite ex treme of cultiVation. How long ago is it since the government of clans was that of the Scotch high lands, the Borders, of \Vales, and the Lord of the Manor ruled in England with only a lesser degree of despotism than the Chief in Scotland. The next step was England as a unit, and Scotland as a unit, then Great Britain as a unit. But the British, confined in an island, overflowed in emigration, and colonies arose, and, how those who remained at home re garded those who made the colonies let Mr. GLAD STONE tell :—" It is 34 years since I was first a member of the staff of the Colonial Department, and it is 23 years since I last held office in that department. Looking back over those years no man can fail to be struck with the great change, and that change, I am happy to say, all of it improve ment, which has within the interval passed over the spirit of our colonial policy. In the days when I was accustomed to wear out with my footsteps the stairs of the Colonial-office that office was haunted byadisembodiedspirit that received a painful distinc tion under the title of Mr. Mother Country.' And while that description conveys no inaccurate idea of the narrow traditions that still hung round about the conceptions of English statesmen more or less, although they were in process of being dis charged at that period, on the other side of the water, and in every British colony there was a party which I rejoice to think has since become totally extinct, under the name of " the British Party." I speak in the hearing and remembrance of those who may recollect the circumstances and struggles of those times, and many of us in this country were taught, or attempts, at any rate, were made to induce us to believe that upon this British Party,' which invariably represented an insignificant minority, depended the whole hope of maintaining the connection between Eng land and the colonies, and that if anything were done to offend that British Party,' or to recognize the vast majority of the colonial com munity as having a claim upon our sympa thies and acknowledgment, such a policy was cer tain to be fatal t 3 the colonial empire at large. This was the state of things, and so strange was it, that merely to recollect it now seems like bringing back from the grave the spirits of the dead, so wholly is that state of things without a parallel in the present day." Here is a mighty change within the official experience of a statesman ; a widening of sympathies; a knitting of the whole, in contradis tinction to the severance into parts; still it is but au earnest of what remains to be done. We will yet learn to sink the scc:ional differences which divide the United States from the United Kingdom, and rejoice in the success whereby one Government rules in North America, as iu British success. Thus the progress £0 marked will be continued till the whole race be included ; yet even this is but a step. The tendencies of the future will be to break down the barriers of nationali'y which separate people from people. Though it may be the work of ages, yet who can predict that it may not be speedier, and nothing will more hasten what may be regarded as the true millenium than the Union of the Anglo-Saxon race. If that unity really be the object sought, and the people be sincerely desirous of considering them selves as members of one and a united family, it is more for the family interest that the continent of North America should be under one than under two Governments, for the essence of its progress lies in that unity. North America is a grand demense for the relief of over-crowded Europe, more especially of densely-peopled England. Great Britain has no other interest there than that, and a fair field for commerce. The greater the productive power of the Republic the better for England, which cannot fail to benefit therein, and it is only false notions,which lead to other belief. The cheaper, the more united, industtions, and successful the Republic becomes, the better for all countries, more especially for England, so long as peace be main tained ; and it is the danger of war only which makes Englishmen dread that growth, and fear to see the whole continent ruled from Washington. To avoid war, the best step is to withdraw from America, for then the nations could not come into collision. The incentive would disappear from and cease to tantalize the Republic, and England would have done an act to be remembered with gratitude for generations. It would then cut both ways, for while it really strengthened England for war, rendering her less vulnerable, and in concen trating her force, more formidable, it would re move the bone of contention and turn a coveteous neighbour into an absent friend. Canada in the Union, would be England's ally in a desirable place. Canada independent, would be England's ally in a dangerous position. The Representatives .h and i Senators returned fro m the States into which a power ful the s ll Dominion influence n ion w o i u o l dc Congress, and e dwouldexera materially strengthen I n n to on t e he w .u or o d i , on it w w h o i u o l h d , n i be a British deluge thrown the New England section. followed by a large British immigration, would rapidly change the tone of sentiment in the States, and the Union would again quickly revert to the old English feeling once predominant, a state of things of all others the most desirable for England to cultivate and to secure. When Mrs. Senator Patterson, daughter of Andrew Johnson, found herself the " first lady in the laad," she made this remark, which has been the key note of the feminine department of the White House from that eventful day up to the present time :- "We are plain people from the mountains of Ten nessee, called here for a short time by a national calamity. I trust too much will not be expected of us." When Anna Surratt threw herself prostrate upon the floor of one of the ante-rooms of the White House, bag. ging piteously to see Mrs. Patterson, she said, " Tell the girl she has my sympathy, my tears, but I have no more right to speak than the servants of the White House." When the pardon brokers trailed their slimy lengths every where about the mansiol, they never dared to cross a cer tain enchanted pathway, and the face of any lobbyist set in this direction has always brought up in the end against a stone wall."— Washington Correspondent.
