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 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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 C ompany on these points, as is the case with ordinary assurances. Creditors assuring tho 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 withou t t 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 bo 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, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this class as security, may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to ad; once so as to maintain the full benefit of the Assurances matter of great importauco where policies are bel , l as collateml security. _ It. is only neeessnry to add Vint, ns a eonsequenee of the policies nmier these tildes being unforfoitablo and uncon dit;ona!, they will also be unebelleugeable on any ground whateri... rimer may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security I'ollc-ff.,. ..... • The PRUDENTIAL ASSURA.Nun ociNtPANY pos sesses an income of ..£215.00 a year Its position la questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of tow business of any office in the Kingdom.

Secretary. FOREIGN NOTES. -** TIM ALABAMA CLAM. Mr. Francis Mucks, who for many years officiated iff the administration of Canada, adds his contribution to the voluminous literature called forth by Mr. Sumner's speech. In a letter to the Daily News ho discusses the Clarendon- Johnson treaty with considerable force, and proves pretty clearly that, as has been before suspected, we have much reason to rejoice at the rejection of the unfortunate protocol which Mr. Suinriii . so roughly handled. The general principle of negotiation followed by the British Government was that all pecuniary claims arising out of the depredations of the Alabama and other cruisers might safely be submitted to arbitration,' but that tho honour of this nation would not allow of foreign judg. ment upon the Queen's proclamation. It was, however, extremely doubtful whether the treaty concluded by Mr. Reverdy Johnson did not contain a clause under which damages might be claimed for the so-called premature recognition of belligerency. Mr. llincks invites inspe7.- tion of the treaty. Article 1 pros ides for the reference of All claims , "including the eo-called Alabama claims," which have been pm:sell( ed and which remain unsettled. This is in strict accordance with the preamble ; but it proceeds—" as well as any other such claims which may . be presented witliin the time specified in Article 3;" that is, within six months from the day of the tint meeting of the commissioners, who may extend the time , still further. If the treaty had been ratified, every men, chant or shopowner in the United States might have pre sented claims for losses consequent on the proclamation of belligerency, and there can be little doubt that such claims would have been recognised by the United States, and repudiated by the British commissioners. It would then have been necessary to resort to an umpire, to decide . as to the construction of the treaty. Now, if the two Parties were unable to agree upon an umpire, the treaty provided that each should choose one, and then the final choice should be decided by lot. So that, after all, the reference of the great question which we so indignantly refused to refer—the recognition of the South's belliger ency—depends upon the tossing up of a halfpenny. It is plain that Mr. Seward accepted the treaty because he foresaw that the belligerency question might be brought in by this clause. And yet Mr. Sumner advocated the • rejection by the Senate because, in his opinion, the damages arising from the recognition of the South were not provided for. According to Mr. Hindu's reasoning, they were providcd for but too well; and we may thank our stars for Mr. Sumner's kindness in rejecting an agreement which admitted more than was intended. Whether the belligerency question ever will be submitted to an arbiter is a question which should not, as we have previously argued, be decided too hastily. But if we do concede this much, we ought to make the admission with our eyes oven. THE INDIAN WAR. A telegram from Philadelphia, published in the Times, states that the Indian war has again broken out. A "battle " has taken place between the troops of the United States and the Indians, near Fort Griffin, in Texas. Tli Indians lost fourteen men. FREE TRADE V. PROTECTION. The Free Trade agitation in the United States is visibly gaining strength. If the Tribune be excepted, not a single New York journal of importance now advocates Protection. The New York Evening Post, a staunch Republican journal, announces that the Republics. 4 party is to be the future Free Trade party of the country, and that it has been for years struggling to free itself from the "Protectionist tail." The New York Times has become a semi-convert. It believes that it is impossible to establish Free Trade pure and simple in the United States ; but it goes heartily in favour of greatly reducing the import duties, and it there. fore commends the efforts of Mr. Garrison and other& The doings of the Protectionists, too, are not improving their position. The mine-owners of Pennsylvania recently got up a strike amongst their own workmen for the ex press purpose of increasing the price of coals. This flag!. tious proceeding has caused a great outcry against the prohibitory duties on foreign coal. HAN OVER. It is noteworthy that the semi-official Patr:i of Paris, being no longer able to assail Belgium with decency, is directing its waste journalistic steam again.* Prubsia. A few days ago it announced the' the visit of Bing William to Hanover was po.eponed solely because hostile demonstrations on the part of the populace were to be apprehended. The official and officious paper now states that the journey has been abandoned altogether, and for the same reason. The Patric likewise exults in the thought that Prussia is getting into financial difficul ties with her army expenses, and that a new loan will soon be necessary. It is certainly a bad thing for Prussia to copy the example of France in this respect. - THE ASSASSINATION AT LEGHORN. The name of the assassin who murdered the Austrian Consul at Leghorn, in mistake for General Crenneville, is Negro. It is stated that after the capture of the town in 1849, the father and brother of this man were shot by order of General Crenneville. Negro himself was flogged with the bleeding corpses of his relatives before his eyes. Hence the attempt at ven;earce. Other persons impli cated in the murder had also suffered an iznorainioua beating. TIIIC LORD-LIEUTENANT OF IRELAND. It . is rcpnrted that Earl Spencer has resigned the Irma Viceroyalty, and that he is coming to England immediately. This is rather awkward news for the Ministry just now that they arc introducing their Irish Church Bill into the Upper House. If his lordship dissents from the Irish policy of the Government either because he knows what it it is and disapproves of it, or because he does not know and thinks the country ought to know, the " Cave" which undoubtedly exists in the Peers, and 'which has for chief occupant Lord Westbury, will receive an addition as formidable, though for diffe rent reasons, es Mr. Lowe was in the Commons' Cave "of 1866. Mr. Lowe's antagonism was sup posed to be due partly to his exclusion from the Russell-Gladstone Administration ; but Earl Spencer will have voluntarily resigned an important post in the Ministry because of his disapproval of the Ministerial policy. This fact will more than compensate for the inferiority of the Peer's oratory as compared with the Commoner's. As Earl Spencer is not an Irish landowner he cannot be suspected of - thinking too much of his personal interests. THE ➢IEETING AT CHESTERFIELD ROUSE. The London correspondent of the Dublin Evening Mail declares that the meeting at Chesterfield House on Saturday " has disclosed the entire hollowness and treachery of the Disraeli Ministry (sic) and of the whole bench of English bishops. Not a single member of either of those classes paid the Irish Protestants the barren compliment of :Attending to listen to their complaints." Upon Lord Cairns the correspondent is particularly severe. He goes on to say that there was a regular intrigue set on foot to prevent the meeting of the deputations, the object being to hide from the English nation the sentiments of the Irish Protestants, and so allow the Conservative Peers to escape the duty of throwing out the bill. After the conference it was settled that small deputations should wait upon four or five peers whom it was desirable to confer with, among them Lord Westbury, the Earl of Shaftesbury, and the Earl of Derby. The correspondent mentions that the deputation gave it clearly to be understood that the present movement in opposition to the Church Bill had no party significance ; that the Irish Protestants expect this ; and that if it was not afforded in good faith by the Conservative party, farewell for ever to all connection between them and it. The sentiment was adopted by all the delegates present with cheers, and it was not dis owned by any subsequent speaker. Nay, there was even a slight shiver when a phrase of courtesy, ,which fell from Mr. David Plunket, seemed to indi cate a submission of the case too absolutely to the discretion of the Lords, and Mr. Plunket hastened to add his testimony to the fact that in the general opinion of Protestants the question is one of principle which ought not to be compromised." The London correspondent of the Leeds Mercury confirms the now prevalent impression that the Lords have given up the game. Ile says " In political circles the truth is being recognised that, so far as the Irish Church Bill is concerned, the game of the Opposition is played out. And the Peers, who are generally acute and far-seeing men, have for the most part recognised this truth, and will act accordingly. There is no talk now of the possibility of rejecting the bill altogether, and it is only Lord Grey and one or two noblemen who are as averse to any reasonable line of action as he is, who propose seriously to alter the bill in committee. The Marquis of Salisbury . and Lord Cairns have prevailed over their more hot-headed Peers, and except for the purpose of saving their own dignity the Conservatives are not likely to m ake any alteration s in the bill. Those which they do make will not be of a serious character." are not to go away According to the Morning Herald, the deputations the Irish duke could offer I dukehemwirll supply them with altogether c on o i t f h o in rt g les i s i; th T e h s o ha ug p h e of promises, an Englis.to pie crust.
