The Elizabeth was a wooden sailing ship, bi _ at Deptford, Kent, in the year 1826, schoon rigged, of 115 66-400 tons register, and the p ! perty of J. Isles, of Dundee, shipowner, to the tent of 56 shares, and 11. Baylis Brown, of Kit [ street, Commercial-road, Middlesex, master mr ner, for the remaining eight years. She was co mandcd by John Hay, who, together with I first mate, and a seaman named Cookson, v unfortunately lost with the ship. The Elizab has been for some years past employed in coal trade between Dundee and Sunderland, a in the afternoon of Friday, the 16th April la left Sunderland with a full cargo of about 1. tons of coals for Dundee. She was manned a crew of five hands, all told, and she found ou the following Sunday morning (the 18th Air at a quarter to seven o'clock, off Newbiggin Pui It appears from the evidence that the Elizabe was a weak and leaky ship, owing, no doubt, her great age ; that it was necessary to pump b every hour while in harbour and light, and co; • stantly while at sea. That in the early part 1868, within half an hour of high water, awl wht laden with a full cargo, she touched upon son. stones on entering Dundee harbour. At flood tide with the help of a warp, she was got off, sine which she has never been in dock or undergone an, material repairs. Oa Saturday afternoon, the 17: April, the wind began to blow heavily, and kei increasing till four on the Sunday morning, when a heavy sea struck the ship and carried away tl port bulwarks, and also her boat. This threw ht. on her beam ends, and, in all probability, atarte her covering board. She never righted, and in three hours afterwards, notwithstanding the pumps had been kept constantly going, she went down. The master and crew jumped into the sea. A schooner, the Betsy, of Newbury, was to the leeward of them at the time,j but her boat being in a bad condition she could . render no assistance; she, however, signalled to a steamer, the Rey nard, who bore down about an hoar after wards and picked up two of the crew (George Squires and David Low), and took them to North Shields. The loss of this schooner may be attributed to her great age, apparently inefficient repairs, and stress of weather when deeply coal laden. The vessel was insured upon an annual policy in the Dundee Clubs in the sum of £550 and bad been thus insured for the period of 11 years. However much the Court may deprecate the custom of em ploying old vessels of this description in the coast ing trade, to the manifest danger of life, it must be borne in mind that the crews are few agents, and, in the absence of any statutory enactments to the contrary, the court can only point to the practice, which, perhaps, may form the subject of future legislation. ttronage, nonials." thin that such fill - K than ill had they most se- A PARTMENTS.—One or Two Floors, with ni Extra Bed Rooms if required.

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. Tho premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. 9d. and of this sum £3,270 15s. 4d. has been expended in re assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly idea 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 baying 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.

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, 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 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 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. Tho longest term provided for is twenty-fire 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 t•o 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, /IS a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and :neon ditional, they will also be unchaliengeable on any krennd whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security P.l ieIFS.

PRICE OF GOLD. Th,e• quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and le short exchange on Loudon is 251. 1713. per £1 sterlin • . Unconiparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 lie. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold at the above price is about the samo to London and Paris. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 6ti days' sight was on the 2 , th inst. about 1101 per cent. At this rate there is a profit on the importation of gold from the United States. SEWING MACHINES.—No article of household use is now so much desired as a sewing machine ; indeed, so rapidly has this invention grown in public favour, that it is now recognised as a necessity in every family. Nearly two million families already experience its benefits, and each month adds thousands to the list, and so the ratio of the demand increases in proportion as the advantages of the invention becomes known. The sewing machine of the present day is not, however, the sewing-machine of some years back. Though retaining the first principles, many and valuable improvements have been added, which increase the speed and efficiency, render it more simple and noiseless, and adapt it to all the different requirements of the family and the workroom. The Grover and Baker Sewing Machine Company, amongst the first to produce a practical sewing-machine, have been the most successful in attaining these results. Their unequalled machines, are now to be found in every part of the world, and they aro everywhere recognised as the best.—Court circular. [ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway's Ointment and Pills.

Persons suf fering from these.scourges of the human frame should arrest. their progress at once, for it is both insidious and rapid. Fistulas, if long allowed to go unchecked, not only weaken the system but destroy life. The sooner these inestimable remedies are used the more certain the success, yet none need despair, hopeless cases have likewise yielded, and the sufferer saved a painful death.
