Branch Office-7, King-street, St. James's. _ . 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 Unforfeitablo, Unconditional, and Un ch all e n geable. For the reason referred to, many persons hesitate or decline to assure on the ground that, i u; ne 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 nonpayment of premium, or from any other cause whatever ;"while at the same time it absolutely guaranteireal decease, when even a de faultiamade in patinent of the premium, a fixed sum in respect of every plcmium 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time bo withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance. The, assured will thus alwayiit 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 ono 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 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 clsss 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 groat importance where policies .I.re held as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengoablo on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of £215,000 a year Its position is un questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new business of anv office in the Kingdom.

The crops are a full r.verage in bulk, though the quality is excessively variable. IH Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Derbyshire, and Nottinghamshire we hear of ' wheat yields con• siderably below an average, although nearly all carted in prime condition. In the Fen level! of Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire, and Lin colnshire, the wheat crops; not too heavy, as they generally are, but still much laid and weather-broken, promised to be considerably above an average. How ever, the grain is to a great extent shrivelled and light; and - the yield from' the' early thrashings falls much below what was anticipated. The marsh. land or sea-coast alluvial districts also have lighter wheat crops than they expected. From 'Yorkshire our advices tell of very inferior yields of wheat. It it only occasionally that we hear from any part of the coml. try of cropiof average bulk or of heavy weight per sack ; and we are obliged to conclude that the general wheat harvest of 1869 is much below an average, taking lute account both quantity per acre and proportion of flour in the grain. THE GALES. The gale raged furiously during Monday in many parts of the kingdom. The list of casualties and wrecks is very numerous, and stories of great destruction are coming from all parts. The. pressure of wind was greatest in, the Channel, though the gale was general. Advices from Ramsgate state that the storm had been • productive of many disasters in the neighbourhood, one of which was attended with fatal consequences. A boy employed in furling a sail on board the Edith Marie of Hull, was blown from the yardarm on to the deck and killed. At Weymouth an exciting scene was presented to many hundreds of people on the nplanade and Pile. pier on Tuesday morning. The Hannah, a brigantine, bound from Stockholm to Nantes, endeavoured to make for the breakwater, but failed, and was fast drifting on to the rocks to leeward, with the sea continually break. ing over her. • The Commodore then steamed out of the harbour, and with great difficulty got a tow-line on board of her and towed her into the -harbour. At Port. land, on Sunday,- the Salathiel, , of Aberystwith, a schooner carrying corn, went on: to the breakwater and fotlndered. The captain and a boy are supposed to drowned. A Chatham correspondent writes :—" On board the Great Eastern every precaution has been taken to prevent the -vessel dragging her anchor. Duringthe height of the gale a barge foundered near Saltpanreach, and it was stated that two men who were on board were drowned." Immense loss has b'een caused to the shipping lying in the Portland roadstead. On Sunday morning, the Salathiel, of Aberdove3-, North Wales, was wrecked in the roadstead. The ship had been obliged to run iu fog shelter, and the captain, John Richards, went, accom- • panied with the mate and another hand, on shore, and left a boy in charge of the vessel. At nine o'clock, anj,-, again between eleven and twelve, they endeavoured to reach the schooner, but, in consequence of the heavy sea, they had to return. At five o'clock on Sunday morning 4 the Salathiel broke h er ca bl e , d r if te d on the breakwater, and immediately foundered with the boy, in about twelve fathoms of water. From Padstow some accounts tell of the' most serious shipping disasters. The smack Commodore, of Lynmouth, with cuhn, for Plymouth, in running for the harbour, caught on the inner part of the Doombar. On the flowing of the tide she beat over the bar, but unshipped her rudder and knocked away her rudder case. She began to fill, and ran up to Gun Point; scraping the rocks, het rudder being unmanageable. As she was beginning to settle doWn, the crew, consisting of two men, were taken oil iu a pilot gig. About five o'clock a message was brought to the. chief officer of the coastguard that a vessel was brought up below Trevose Head. The coastguards were mustered - , - and proceeded to the spot with the rocket apparatus, and found the ship about two miles from the shore, with her !bast gone, and drifting ashore. During the forenoon she, catne ashore i❑ Fox Cove, near Treuarvon House, and the crew, seven in number, were taken off by the rocket -apparatus. She is the Victoria, of Plymouth, Samuel Wilton, master, from Cardiff to Cadiz, with coals. A despatch from PIS mouth,"dated Dl onday, says :—" It has been blowing Lard all day, chiefly from the southward and westward.. The wind has now veered to the north. west, and seems to have decreased. The brigantine Flora, • 220`. tons, Captain Austin, belonging to Mr. S. Goldberg, of. Swansea, from Arroya Negro, with tallow, and the ship Berkshire, Captain John Jack, belonging to Messrs. George Marshall and Sons, of London, with general cargo, for Calcgtia, prteinto the Sound to-day. On Saturday, - at-ortiianight, south of the Eddystone, the brigantine sprung her foremast 'head and lost foreyard, Stc., during a heavy gale from. the westward. Tli6 ship experienced the same gale, and lost fore and maintopgallant masts and lower topsails." The following is a list of the wrecks and casaulties : The Aden, from Cardiff to Maranham, was totally lost on the 6th of August on Santa Anna Island ; crew saved. The Isabelle, of Dinan, from St. Malo to Swansea, with barley, has sunk on the Doombar, crew saved. The Wheatsheaf, from Sidmouth to Newcastle, in ballast has been totally wrecked near Boulogne. II': Victoria, of London, has gone ashore on the coast of Belgium, derelict and broken up. The St. Petersburg (s), of Lubeck bound to Cronstadt with rails, has gone ashore at Rodshar ; cargo discharging. The Salathiel, schooner, driven ashore on Portland Breakwater and sank. The Harmony, from Havre to Newcastle, in bat last, stranded near Boulogne during a very severe gale. The Commodore, from Sundusfort to Plymouth, with coals, struck on the rocks in Padstow Harbour, and sank in the sand, but would probably be got off. The Unity, of Portsmouth, in ballast, drove ashore near Margate ; crew saved by lifeboat. The Belle, schooner, of London. derry, capsised and sank while at anchor in Waterford river during the gale ; crew saved. The Eno, bound to Sunderland, with tar, has been lost off Cross Island. The Anna, of Whitby, bound to Rotterdam, with empty vitriol carboys, was stranded near Southwold. The Oneida, of Aberystwith, from Hull to Trieste, with railway iron, bar been totally wrecked near Eastbourne. The Reliance, of Poole, from Swansea to Fremington, with coals, has been totally wrecked in Bideford Bay ; crew drowned. The Oddone, of Genoa, from Cardiff to Cagliari, with coals, stranded at Portledge Mouth, near Clonelly, and was breaking up ; crew saved. The Ivan and the Nicolay, bound tci P,elchora, with flour, have been lost of Cross Island. The Mountain Eagle, from St. John's to Phila. delphia, has gone ashore at Dyer's Island. The Victoria, of Plymouth, from Cardiff to Cadiz, with coals was totally wrecked west of Trevose Head ; crew saved. The Serena, from Barletta to London, has stranded in the Prince's Channel ; crew lauded. The Pride of the Ganges, from Callao, drove on the Brach Sands, on Monday, during the gale, and went to pieces ; crew saved. The Courier du Havre, of Nantes, from Sunderland, with coals, drove ashore on the Gth inst., on the coast of Coqueville, in a leaky condition. The Spiridione, from Taganrog, with wheat, has been wrecked - at . Cherbourg. The Queen, from Rochester to Sunderland, with wheat, has been abandoned off Lowestoft with 41 feet of water in old ; crew saved. It is stated that the Bishop of Exeter will re tain his Durham Canonry. The income of the see itself has been the lowest of all the sees during Dr. Phillpott's Episcopate—about £2,soo—but will be increased to £5,000 on the appointment of a now bishop. What the arrange ments will bo as to the retiring bishop's pension aro not exactly known, the seo of Exeter being peculiarly circum stanced. There is every reason to believe, says the Pall Mall Gazette, tLat the "preparer" of the too-celebrated Newton- Pascal letters has at length been discovered. A man was arrested in Paris on Friday last on a charge of forgery, and appearances point strongly to the con elusion that ho is the originator of the letters of Pascal, of Newton, and of Galileo, the first appearance of which created so much excitement some three years ago in the scientific wcrld. Iu England every ono had long been convinced of the spuriousness of these papers: but in France, M. Chaslcs, their literary godfather, still chmg to the belief that they were genuine, in spite of tho A overwhelming proofs to the con t rary adduced by the late Sir David Brewster in Engl a nd, an d by MM. Hvurlttt!n, Vaugbre, and Leverrier iu Prance. • - NvILLE and Co., Belfa4, are the largeklt holders of "Whisky in tho world.
