Only within late years have doubts about the coming crash arisen, and they perhaps may be wholly dispelled by the time the United States really tumbles headlong into a pa nic, when with their usual coolness wey will have the "I -told-you-so" pi ophets complacently introducing themselves through the columns of the Times to pub , lic notice. That men who had studied political eco nomy, who were entitled to speak with weight as re gardi Europe and to be listened to with respect, should have been altogether astray as regards Ame rica is not so very surprising when the difference be tween the Continents is carefully considered. Certain causes have invariably produced certain results on European nations ; why should not, they ask, these causes produce the same effects in America? Granted that there are differences in a country with a more open, unappropriated, undeveloped soil, and a Go vernment which rests more directly than any other ever has on the shoulders of all the people, but human nature is the same on that side of the Atlantic as on this, and no change is worked by the climate on economic law ; therefore the result will be the same, though a longer time may be taken to reach it in America than in England. The argument is, we believe, correct and applicable, but the difficulty lies in estimating at their true value, the open, unappropriated soil, and the institutions which throw on every individual man the responsi bility first of making the Government, next of sup porting what he has helped to make. How to calcu late what the unappropriated land does to stave off a commercial bankruptcy, and what the institutions do to prevent a national bankruptcy, is the difficulty for the political economist, in which those of Europe THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 30, . 1869. 44 STA KPED dd.

ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLE, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-bill, London, E.C. Established 1848. Branch Office-7, King-street, St. James's The Directors of this'Comiany, in' deference to an ob jection not unfrequently urged by persons invited to as sure, that the ordinary mode of Lifo 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; no 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 point 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 aro 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 us ua l 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 advantafres, 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 called upon to advance so as to maintain the full benefit of the Assurances—a matter of great importance whore policios %re held as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as a consequence of the policios under these tables being unforfoitable and uncon ditional, they will also be uuchallengeable on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of X 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 HARDEN, Secretary.

EMIGRATION AND AMERICAN FINANCE (From the Anglo-American Times.). It is not surprising that the political economists of Europe should have blundered sadly about the United States. From the outbreak of the Civil War to the present they have predicted a financial smash in the Republic, but the financial smash has occurred everywhere else except there. If we had time we would turn back a file of the Times of 1862 and 1863 to refresh the memory of our readers with some extracts, and curious reading in the light of his tory they would be. Indeed we must yet do this, for we doubt whether the point of remark can be fully appreciated without such aid. Month after month the Times discussed the impending crisis not as a probability, but as a certainty, indeed, going so far as to turn into a sort of ZADKIEL, fixing the date at the end of a certain named month, when the monetary erections in the United States were to come tumbling down like the superstructure of cards built to its highest by children. The break was then to occur, if not before, precisely for the reason that a reservoir without an outlet over flows by a certain time on the discharge therein of a regular number of gallons per minute of any fluid, or to become empty on their discharge in obedience to a law of nature. Those who know what servile copyists the English press are, ex cept a few leading journals, and how they follow the Times as sheep do a bell-wether, can imagine the effect produced on England by these decided opinions. Seldom has the Times entered the arena of prophecy with such confidence ; never had it been less unqualified in its assertions, while all the smaller fry of journalism bleated in harmony, and the chorus was the coming financial ruin in the United States. Fortunately for the Ger mans, they did not know English ; they did not read English papers; they did not accept the Times as infallible ; and this was lucky, too, for the United States ; nevertheless the injury in flicted on American credit was so great as to be felt to this day. England started with the conviction firmly implanted that the longer the eventually certain commercial smash was delayed the worse it would befor the Union, that by cun ning devices and unscrupulous proceedings that have as yet signally failed. Nor will it astonish those who are aware that the economists had no practical experience, had no lessons in the past of other na tions, had no means to apply the laws of their science to conditions not _fully understood. Hence their failure ; nor that only, for their inability to appreciate the changed circumstances led them further into error than other people. A man who works on the rules of science, if he accurately ascer tains the component parts, can accurately define the result; but if he does not accurately ascertain these particulars while he thinks he does, he will make himself conspicuous for his error, for the false premises must lead him into false conclu sions. What the political economist bad first to do was to estimate correctly the material effect of a gigantic European emigration into the United States. This, though the very essence of the sub ject, has been nearly always left out, or but cur sorily glanced at. European economists consider the value to the nation at which American economists appraise au emigrant to be an exaggeration ; but circumstances are proving that it is not, and in this lies, as we apprehend, the secret. A hard working, able-bodied labourer, lands in the United States, with his savings of from £l5 to £2O. In Europe he is estimated as of but little account ; in America his money represents but a very small part of his value to the nation ; nor does it matter in what direction his honest labour tends, whether he works on wages, on a railroad, or on a farm ; whether he settles on his own laud, or digs for the precious metals in the mines of the Pacific slope. In Europe he may be regarded as a good riddance, and the first difficulty is to change this calculation, carrying him to the credit side, as of a high value in America. Indeed,",the economist must learn so to take into account the immigration, as it works such a change every half decade, that the Republic of 1875 differs widely from that whose resources he figured up in 1870, and, that from the nation, of 1880. If a new county was yearly added to Eng land, arising peopled from the sea, with its farms, villages, and towns, with its roads, rails, and tele graphs, however accurate might be the financier's calculation of the nation's resources at the moment, his figures must be wrong after the lapse of a short period. Although immigration does not make these arbitrary additions to the Union, yet, practically, it amounts to the same thing ; indeed, its fostering influence is greater and more direct. Up to a certain point the value of real estate, and the products of agriculture will hinge on the density of pop:ilation. Where the inhabitants of a town double, the value of the land o❑ which it stands will, in all pro bability, have increased in even greater proportion, anti the effect ou the general business of the coun try will be felt from one extremity to the other. This constant upward tendency and ceaseless in crease in the volume of business has not been truly appreciated by European economists, while every eco nomic blunder made by American financiers is not only apparent, but exaggerated. Not seeing the under -current of strength, while seeing the super ficial mistakes, the impression was formed in Eng land that there must soon be an awful smash, and people have gone on wondering why it has not come, and waiting for it till they have begun to suspect their financial prophets and themselves to be alike ignorant on the subject. The truth is, that no one knows the full merits of the position. We may go on speculating and predicting, but the nation is a novelty in the history of mankind, wholly and completely dissimilar from anything yet seen, and all must be content to look on and learn. It is not that the United States in a single particular shows the fallacy of economic science ; on the con trary, if we could but grasp all the circumstances, we would see that these laws are swiftly working out a sure result, though here and there delayed and interrupted by the blunders of mankind. But those who, flying into another extreme, imagine that the citizens of the Union will be carried harmless by a chain of fortunate circumstances through reck less speculation and gambling will be equally at fault, for America will have her periods of catastrophe and depression as surely as other in dustrial nations, with this advantage, that they will be less disastrous in effect and shorter in duration, the recovery being more rapid, the lesson not so deeply felt. We have heard it asserted by those who had swung round to the other side that the war averted the catastrophe—that the West, then in a state of bankruptcy, was saved by that event. This means that a nation may avoid a fi nancial collapse by taking its citizens from use ful labour to destroy the national property, turning its resources into guns and powder to shoot each other down. Could such a course be taken in America as a means to escape from the effects of bad business, we would be constrained to admit that the laws of political economy did not stretch across the ocean ; nevertheless, we have more than once heard shrewd business men make that remark. The truth is, that finding our predictions at fault we ought to admit our ignorance, and confess that little reliance should be placed on our speculations, that there are influ ences at work whose force we have no certain means of ascertaining, yet which should form the very basis of all these calculations. NAVAL ITEMS.--The New York Sun maintains the truth of the mutiny on board the Sabine. " The cable telegrams which reported the discovery of a mutiny on the Sabine at Cherbourg were true. The statement that seven of the mutineers were hanged was untrue. The frigate Sabine has been ordered home on account of this mutinous conspiracy among her crew. Three witnesses, sent by another vessel to avoid being tampered with, have arrived in Boston. These facts have leaked out at the Navy Department to-day. The Sabine was on a fancy cruise with the graduating class of midshipmen, some 60 odd in number. Her commander is Capt. J. G. Walker, a nephew of Senator James W. Grimes of lowa. Secretary Bode and Admiral Porter sent her out to please Senator Grimes, though the midshipmen and men were very much wanted in the West Indian squadron, where vessels are without sufficient crows. None but sailors were engaged in the conspiracy. The trial is to take place at the Brook- lyu navy yard after the arrival of the Sabine." The Navy Department authorities, however, deny the published re port, the substance of which was telegraphed to Wash ington, that a conspiracy really did occur on board the United States frigate Sabine. The Department mails, re ceived since the first report of the alleged trouble on that vessel, contain nothing from her officers concerning any outbreak.—Admiral Mundy sailed from Halifax ou the 4th inst. iu the British man-of-war Revenge for England.
