Established 1848._ The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob jection not unfreouently 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 bo absolutely Unforfeituble, 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 daceasr., 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 to paid. . Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time - be withdrawn on the di,coutinuauce of the assurance.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 evpry Policy, and rendering unnecessary any future reference to the Company on these points, as is die case with ordinary assurances. Creditors as , zuring the lives of debtors will appreciate this feature as one greatly protective of their interests, and it will likery7;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 i,sued on this plan will be without any cteuditions as to voyagino., 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 wcurities. lu 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. bankers, credi tors, am! othere holding policies of thic rl Is, as security, may otways knowtheititiflogt amount, they may be called to ativarce so as to 7,1,11,f:tin . the full benefit of the matter of groat itr.portance where policies an , hpld as collateral security.

There is the greatest possible confusion among political parties with respect -to the 'Duke of Cleveland's proposal. On the one hand, it is said that not more than twenty-five of the non-official Liberal peers will support the Govern ment in resisting concurrent endowment; on the other hand, Lord Cairns, representing the strong Protestant feeling of Ulster, has determined to vote against that scheme. The Bishop of Oxford is a warm supporter of it, and has endeavoured to win over the Opposition leader through the Bishop of Derry, but hitherto in vain, and it is now said that Lord Cairns will take with him twenty of the Conservative peers into the Ministerial lobby, among them the Earl of Bandon and his brother the Bishop of Tuam. The High Church peers are very angry at the Doke of Irf.-,yll'sannouncement, that the Government will not accept any proposal for re endowment. They declare that, come what may, they will insist upon the acceptance of ;heir amendments, even though the Commons should, rather than adopt that course, throw out the bill. They declare that they are prepared for the contingency of an autumn session, and will then reject the bill altogether, rather than assent to the " secularisation . ' of the Church revenues. Altogether they are very angry, very vehement, very threatening. The reason why the Government did not divide the Howse against Lord Clancarty's am en d men t f or enabling the present Bishops to continue to sit in the Upper House is that, according to parlia liamentary etiquette, this matter ought not io have originated in the Lower House, because it affects the privileges of the Upper. If there had been a division, a large number of Liberal peers would have voted against the Government on the ground of privilege. In all proba bility Ministers will introduce a bill in the House of Lords next session to deal with the matter. The appointment of Dr. Vaughan to the Mastership of the Temple is considered generally a very good one, though it is not approved by extreme High Churchmen. Dr. Vaughan has once, if not twice, refused a bishopric for family reasons. His present preferment will bring him to London and give the metropolis another good preacher. At present ther r ia w a_-.l,4,mentable dearth of such. = There were very lar,;e attcndanceslast night at the conver sazioni of the Society of Arts, South Kensington, and the Royal Institute of British Architects, Conduit-street. Neither gathering, however, was favoured by the presence of royalty. The Pasha left England in the morning, and the Prince of Wales left London for Aldershot imme diately afterwards. The weather is again eery cold, with overcast sky an d north-east wind. FOREIGN NOTES. THE UNITED STATES DEBT. The large reduction of the American debt we announce by cable—sixteen millions during the month of June—is satisfactory in every respect. It is a pacific symptom, for reduction of debt and a war policy are wholly incom patible; and, moreover, it is a sign of national progress. As we have before announced the increase in the revenue has been exceptionally large. Nor is there any just reason why this policy should not be continued, for the accounts represent the crops as good on the whole, though cotton has suffered somewhat. THE DOCTRINE OF INT.., NATIONAL SYMPATHY. It is noteworthy that, whilst. the English Press is at one in resisting the claim for damages on account of our "sympathy" with the South, the American journals are by no means equally unanimous in supporting the demand. The .Arno York Tints persistently writes against the inconsistency of such a theory. The reason why the American nation cannot demand damages for sympathy with the South is, it argues, simply because the Ameri cans themselves have always claimed the right of expres sing iniividual opinion respecting all sorts of wars and rebellions. If America had to pay for sympathy with insurrec.,tious in Crete, Poland, Hungary, Cuba, and Ireland, the nation would have to go through the bankruptcy court. "We certainly have never scrupled to 'encourage' by our sympathy whichever of to o contending parties wo happened to fancy, and have never thought of having our sympathy reckoned up against us at the market price by the other party. In the case of England, especially, it is doubtful whether she has been engaged in any war for nigh upon a hundred years in which we have not publicly expressed our hopes that she would get soundly whipped." Too hicTl: praise cannot be given to a journal for a polcy - , - , ugh just, is by no means without danger. TILL ERIE RAILWAY SWINDLE. A disgraceful proceeding has been consummated in New York State. Everybody has heard of the "Erie P~aiitiay war"—of the proceedings by which three directors obtained despotic control over the Erie Railway Company awl its capital of fifteen or twenty millions sterling, of which a large proportion is held in Europe. How they ille gally issued an enormausnumberof shares, how the whole of this large capital was applied at pleasure by these three men to their own purposes, bow the shares went up and down io the market in a manner which has no parallel, has been already described. The "Erie Railway war" attained the distinction of being the greatest swindle of an age in which commercial swindles are of more than ordinary magnitude. The respectable shareholders long ago felt that the only means of saving their property was to take it out of the hands of these three directors, and this they Lave endeavonrel to:lo. And yet the State Legislature of :New York, with the consent of the Governor, has just passed an Act virtually prolonging the sway of the triumvirate or five years! The scandal is one of exceptional enormity. But what can be expected from a State in which judges are known to take bribes, and the local Legislature of which is composed of represen tatives from the lowest dregs of the community? But a few days ago a man applied at the Albany Police-court for ad- mission to the Penitentiary. He had be - en a member of the State Assembly in 1867 ; but drink had brought him to destitution, and preservation from drink was, he said, his only hope. THE NEGRO IN VIRGINIA. It seems highly probable that the African race will speedily be thrust out of Virginia southwards to a warmer clime. Of late a large body of immigrants from the North have settled in the " Old Dominion," the number of these is increasing, and the free black will have the utmost difficulty in contending with his hardy and energetic riva's. The fine soil of Virginia affords every encouragement to the settler, and accordingly the cry is " Still they come." The price of land in the old State fell after the war to one•fourth its former price. It has now risen to onelalf, and is still going up. Thanks to this immigration, the civil war will soon be almost forgotten in Virginia at least. MGR TREASON IN PRUSSIA. Some months ago Count Bismarck demanded the trial of Dr. Ottolater, of the Dresden International Bulletin, on a charge of high treason. Ills offence lay in vigorous!) , employing his newspaper in advocating the independent autonomy of Saxony, now included in the North German Confederation and semi•annexed to Prussia. The Saxon Government long resisted this request; but at length it yielded to the autocratic Bismarck, and the trial has just taken place at Dresden. The result must be highly unsatisfactory for the Count. The Saxon jury unanimously acqnitted the doctor. The court resounded with applause, and the prisoner was released amid loud cries in favour of Saxon autonomy. THE AtSTRIAN NAVY. Austria is pushing forward her maritime armament as rapidly as Prussia. Two more ironclads have been ordered at Trieste, and the construction of these vessels, which are to be very strong, will be commenced immedi ately. With these Austria will have not fewer than ten ironclads. The two great German States are racing for precedence as naval Powers. Both promisa to outrun Russia. CONVERSION OF PROTESTANTS IN ERIMJUVG The Tatra announces a great conversion to Roman Catholicism at a Hungarian town named Pap Tamas. All the inhabitants of this place, with the exception of twelve or sixteen families, have abjured Protestantism. even persons only partook of the Protestant communion on Whit-Monday last, and the mass of the population held a meeting, after which they betook themselves to the Catholic parish priest of Bibar, and declared their inten tion of embracing the Catholic faith.- SPAIN. A small quarrel has taken place between General Prim atcl some of his brother Ministers at Madrid. From the imperfect accounts yet to hand it appears that Prim con tradicted Figuerola, the Finance Minister, on some point of no great importance, and the latter, with some of his colleagues, resirmed. Subsequently the amc4de ltonlyable was made and the resignations withdrawn. General Prim acknowledged himself in the wrong. Further details of this incident seem to be require:l. AIITEMUS WARDS MONUMENT.—The Portland Trawcriptsays that Mrs. Caroline E. Brown of Waterford, mother of the late Chas. P.
