The directors draw special attention to the fact the t the next bonus valuation will take place at the end of the year 1872, and that all polices effected on the profit scales prior to the 31st December, 1869, will be entitled to participate in the same. The directors also draw allenlion to tho successful esta blishment during the past year of the Britannia Fire Association, under the auspices of the Briton. The direc tors believe that the establishment of a Fire Company, to work in active co-operation with the Life, will tend much to the advantage and profit of both institutions. It is scarcely necessary to remark that the capital funds and constitution of each office are quite separate and distinct. By order of the Board, JOHN MESSENT, Actuary and Secretary.

The proprietors will no doubt remember that at the last annual general meeting a report was made to them for the quinquennial period then terminating, and that a bonus was declared in respect of it amounting to the sum of £208,774.

The interest received during the year is £117,584 7s. 3d., arising from the productive portion of the realised assets of £2,897,157, mentioned in the last year's report. 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. The premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. 9d. and of this sum £3,270 15s. 4d. has been expended in ro assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly iden 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 having tertnihated 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 ih the final closing of the two officeslast absorbed by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in cluding income tax, is at the rate of little more than 5i per cent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : Du. LIABILITIES.

ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN- CHALLENGEABLE, , iisued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 6`j, Ludgate-bill, London, E.O. 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 Unchallongeablo. 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. The 1-ngest term provided for is twenty-five 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 Assuratces—a matter of great importance where policies are held as collateral security. It is only necessary to “dd that, as a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and ulcon ditionnl, they will also he uuchnllengeable on any pround whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses nn income of .C'1.15.000 n yenr Its position is un questionable, and it obtains the ):nest nwonnt of now business of nnv ofF.ce in the Kingdom.

It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, the average number of attendance of the destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly.

THE WAR IN NEW ZEALAND. The complete details of the last massacre in New Zealand —that at Mohaka, on the east coast—unfortunatelyprovo that the earlier accounts of this catastrophe were not exagge rated. It appears that Te Kooti—the leader who is so often made out to be dead, and so often rising again —came down the Mohaka river on the 9th of April with about 300 men and massacred most of the friendly natives of the only two little villages in their route— eight men and twelve women in one, four men and six women in the other. Some of those who escaped made their way to two pahs, Jerusalem and Huki, and the rebels then divided into three parties. The main party attacked the pahs, more especially Huki, which was the smaller ; the second prepared to intercept any aid that might be attracted by the noise of the firing ; and the third crossed the river shortly after sun rise on the 10th to where the Europeans were living, killing such of them as had not taken the alarm and fled, and burning the houses of those who had. The friendlies in the Jerusalem and Huki pahs held out, however, fought well, and made To Kooti so uncom fortable that he proposed to treat. The firing ceased, and negotiations opened. According to the account given by the Times correspondent, there was much suspicion that treachery was intended ; and even the rubbing of noses and other pacific demonstrations did not reassure the friendlies. 'l'e Kooti demanded that the maul should be given up. This was refused, high words ensued, and finally the leaders opened fire upon each other. Amongst those who fell was, it is said, Te Kooti himself, who has thus once more been put out of harm's way. Up to the last adviccs Government was still assured that he was dead ; but nobody, says the Times correspondent, believes it. After wreaking vengeance on the inhabitants of the pah, and securing three kegs of ammunition, the rebels drew off, assistance having meanwhile come to the larger pah, Jerusalem. The total loss of the friendlies by this raid is reported to be eighteen men and twenty-five women and children killed, besides wounded ; the Hauhaus leaving • six of their number killed in fair fight. As to the English settlers who lost their lives, they were murdered on the opposite' ide of the Mohaka river. Of this melancholy affair little is known save that some time during the morning of April 10 Ensign Lavin, wife, and three children, together with Messrs. Cooper and Wilkin son, all settlers there, were attacked and murdered. Their houses, as well as those of several other settlers, were destroyed. A band of Militia, 800 strong, set out for Mohaka on the 11th, but they could accomplish nothing. This massacre has incited the authorities to greater exer. • tions, and a very bold campaign has been opened on the east coast and from thence to the interior. Colonel Whitmore's force has been removed from the west coast, and by this reinforcement the total force in the east has been augmented to three divisions of 450 men each. The object of the leaders is to carry the war into the enemy's territory, instead of confining it to the coast, whither the natives can come and retire at will. But the difficulties of the enterprise will be very great, for the country is inhospitable, rugged, and unknown. A great meeting of natives has been held at the residence of the Maori King in Waikato, and the result appears to be that the Sovereign will nut join in the war, but the Times corre spondent hopes nothing from this determination. The loss hitherto has been almost all on the side of the settlers, and it is not to be expected that the natives who are in the field will rs"nekaish hostilities on account of their few defeats. ritE DUKE OF EDINBURGH. Prince Alfred spent well nigh a month inNew Zealand. Ire seems to have enjoyed himself with an abandon which straight-laced formularies would hardly permit on this side of the globe. He drove four-in-hand to a Maori war dance, and at a ball his Royal Highness danced a scotch reel, his own piper playing. He has likewise made some speeches, but, as an orator, the Prince does not acquit himself so brilliantly as on the light fantastic toe. CORRUPTION IN AUSTRALIA. flee Melbourne Parliament has been endeavouring to clear the Legislature from corruption ; but the people of Victoria are determined that they will not be purified. Some time ago the Assembly or Lower House set a special committee to work to investigate certain charges, and the result 'vas that a Mr. Jones was expelled for receiving money for parliamentary purposes, and a Mr. Butters was ousted for disbursing the money of others in bribing members. Will it be believed ?—both these men were re-elected by their respective constituen cies. Two opposing candidates made a good fight it is true, but they were beaten by the members who had been con victed of bribery, and thus corruption received the deliberate sanction of the people. Two other members were committed to prison for bribery, but they managed to get out again by means of an objection to the warrant. The,MeMourne Argus admits that the Assembly has been completely foiled in its efforts to punish corruption ; but it, nevertheless, comforts itself with the thought that secret service money has had its day. TILE CYCLONE IN BENGAL. Tia second of the two hurricanes which visited Dengal— on the l6th of May and the of June—was very debtrnc tive, but far inferior in - violence to the terrible atorms of 1864 and leti7. The plantains and the pan leaf, which is chewed with the bet,l nnf-., were ruined, but the other crops escaped. At Calcutta businees was entirely sns pended. Few merchants were able to reach their Places of linsines4, and those who did found themselves minus their native employ's. The roof of the Lock Hos ptal fell in, killing two women and wounding nine others. Trees were blown down, brick houses were injured, and huts were generally levelled with the ground wherever they were not sheltered. The shipping rode out with few casualties, but cargo boats were swept away, and some lives must have been lost, in the country the huts of the peasantry were blown down in all direc• Cons, except where they were protected by thick trees. No news of shipping disasters had come in when the mail left. One paper asserts that 10,000 lives were lost by the first cyclone—that of May 16th. THE ENGLISH IN JAPAN. The two English officers who were recently insulted in Japan are Captain Chandos Stanhope, of H.M.S. Ocean, senior naval officer, end Mr. Russell Robertson, Vice- Consul at Yedo and Yokohama. They were compelled to dismount in deference to some native dignitary. As the principle of our officers bowing down to Japanese nobles is not a recognised portion of our foreign policy, the British Minister has made strong representations, and by this time no doubt an apology has been offered. These T)e9ple are alway. "y to apologise, but they are also !•.-"ys reatly to commit the offence again. THE UNITED KINGDOM. It is now three months since the Anchor Line steamer United Kingdom left New York. All hope of her safety has been abandoned. It is concluded that sbe must have struck an iceberg, and gone down with all on board, THE PANAMA ISTHMUS CANAL. The Panama Star and Herald strongly condemns the conduct of the New Granada Government in refusing to sanction the American project for constructing a ship canal through the Isthmus of Panama. This journal—which ought to be an authority on such matters—declares that the little Government at Bogota have no substantial motive whatever for their refusal, unless itbe that they are holding back in hopes of getting a higher offer for the privi lege of making their wild lands valuable than has yet been made to them. "It is safe to say that if the construction of the canal were commenced, not less than five, and probably ten, millions of dollars would actually annually accrue to the Isthmus for labour and supplies furnished in the country." The Columbian Government is losing all this money, and may probably lose it alto gether, for the Star and Herald points out that, though Panama is the best situation, there are other points in Central America at which the canal might be made, RUSSIA AND PRUSSIA. The Patrie says that the Russian Government is so seriously disquieted by the rapid progress of the North German navy that the Admiralty at St. Petersburg hav drawn up a memorial setting forth the grave consequences which may ensue from the evident ambition of Prussia to gain the dominion of the Baltic. This memorial has been sanctioned by the Government, and is about to be pub ished in the Golos. ITALY. The inquiry ii,to the alleged corruption in connection with the project for farming the tobacco monopoly has terminated. The commission does not report that any direct act of bribery has been committed, hut it censures the conduct of certain deputies as light and trivial. The mysterious charges brought by Major Lobbia have, how ever, completely exploded, and the Major is severely con demned. The army staff demand his removal from the ranks. At IVasbiogton College, Luxington, June 24, the Rev. R. A. Holland, of Baltimore, addressed the literary societies, General Lee distributed the medals and diplo mas, and C. W. M'Cormick, of Chicago, a member of the Board of Trustees, who was unavoidably absent, sent his check for $5.000 as a substitute for his personal appear ance. Many distinguished persons from other States were absent. At the Alumni dinner at night speeches were made by Commodore Maury, General Smith, and others. The college prize oration was delivered by C. C. Garrett of Texas, the law class oration by John T. Pendleton of Kentucky, and the Cincinnati oration by J. P. Strider of West Virginia. LUXURIANT AND BEAUTIFUL HAIR.—MRS. S. A.
