The directors draw special attention to the fact thst 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 attention to the 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.

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 re assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly idea 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 terminated 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 in 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 5} per cont. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : DR. LIABILITIES.

A BSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN- E 1 L FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLE, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgat-bill, London, E.G. Established 1818. Tho 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 Unforfcitable, Unconditional, and Unchallongeable. _ _ 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 pentium 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 fix,-d 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 itisued 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 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, tankers, credi• tors, and others holding policies of this atss as security. may always know the utmost amount they may be callef , upon to adrance so as to maintain the full benefit of tht A ssurnt.:tes—a mat ter of great importance whore pol:ciet are held as collateral pecurit v.

This Hospital, founded iu the year 1828, the first to establish the principlo of free admission to the sick poor, without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly dependent :or support on voluntary contributions and legacies. It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, the average number of attendance of tho destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly. The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent, as the promises of this hospital aro capable of containing several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds to maintain them. Contrib•Aions are received by their bankers, Messrs. Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abchurch-lane ; also by Messrs. Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co.; Glyn and Co.; Hordes and Co.; Ransom and Co.; I'roscett, Grote, and Co.; Smith, Pay id, and Co.; Barclay and Co.; Williams, Deacon, and Co.; Nisbet and Co.,:Borners-street ; and.at the lioopital from 10 till b. , According to the latest accounts the parlist cause is perishing miserably. The telegrams from Madrid any pounce that the variourbands are dispersing. Don Carlos has not yet assumed the direction of the campaign, and hence the movements of his followers have been iso. lated. It is said that he was waiting until the sympathy of the country was more clearly expressed in his favour, and also that he desired to attain possession of some important point of defence or to secure the adhesion of some of the regiments. The overthrow of the con. spiracles at Saragossa and Pampeluna has greatly discon. • certed his plans. The consequence of this undefined policy has been that the Carlists bands have wandered about with no aim in view but to keep up agitation and shake public confidence in the Government. The French authorities have seized on the frontier forty cases of guns and a quantity of ammu nition that were destined for the insurgents. The police authorities in Madrid seem to be very weak and irresolute, and a state of anarchy prevails in some quarters with respect to personal security and the rights of pro. perty. If the police persist in this supine course, it is feared that before long serious disturbances may take place. The Carlist editors of the independent and anti-revolu tionary journals have been attacked with great malignity, and it seems strange that the Government has not inter fered in their behalf before this. Such a state of things can hardly last without restoring the reign of absolutism. The Emperor Napoleon has given satisfaction to the Spanish Government by the decided course he has adopted towards the Carlists, and he has denounced all sympathy with the movements on the part of his authori ties on the frontier. The probable defeat of the Carlists seems to have in. spired the partisans of Queen Isabella with fresh hope, but they hold that the abdication of the Queen is indis. pensable to their success. They desire that she should give up in favour of the Prince of Asturias, and it is said that the Queen has, for the first time, consented to dis cuss the question. TURKEL The relations between the Sultan and the Khedive aro anything but satisfactory. According to the Levant Herald, a messenger has been sent to Egypt with a letter from the Porte to the Viceroy, setting forth the various grievances that exist, and declaring that the privileges granted in the firman of 1841 will be withdrawn unless some satisfactory explanations are given. The jealousy of the Sultan has been aroused by the late visits of the Viceroy to the leading European Courts. Alto gether the sending of this note may be looked upon as an ominous proceeding. AMERICA AND SPAIN. Fifteen gunboats which were being constructed in New York for the Spanish Government have been seized by the United States Marshal for violation of the neutrality laws. Officers have also been sent to Mystic, Connecticut, where there are fifteen more boats. These seizures are made, it is said, on the representations of the Peruvian Minister, but it is thought probable that the real object is to preserve strict impartiality in Cuban affairs. It is believed in New York that the American Minister at Madrid has been instructed to negotiate for the indepen• dence of Cuba, an armistice being proclaimed, and Spain receiving an indemnity in Cuban bonds endorsed by the United States. At a Democratic mass meeting, held in New York, to denounce President Grant's Administration, one of the principal charges brought against the Government was that of aiding the Spaniards to subdue the Cubans. The Cuban Insurgent Junta at New York intend, it is said, to try shipping their goods from a Southern port; but it is likely that the vigilance of the Government will defeat this intention. CHINESE IN THE SOUTH. The Southern planters think that they have at last dis covered a solution of the problem left them by the war and the abolition of slavery. The negroes, never very fond of work, have been very unwilling to supply by voluntary and paid labour the vacancy left by tho extinc. tion of involuntary servitude, while the white immigrants of the poorer classes who move southwards expect to be owners of the land, not cultivators for others. The want of labour has, therefore, been very severely felt, and a con vention has been held at Memphis to discuss the question. The remedy suggested is coolie emigration. The coolies will, it is thought, be docile and industrious,and will restore to the planter his lost supremacy in the cotton cultivation. The Southern press is strongly in favour of the movement, but public opinion in the North is divided on the subject. Nevertheless, ICoopmanschaap is the hero of the hour. This worthy is a Dutchman who, having prospered in San Francisco, began in 1861 to import Chinese labourers. Thirty thousand Chinese have, it is said, found their way into California by his aid, a service for which the Californians at least do not thank him. He proposes to import 1C0,030 coolies into the Southern States within a year, though in the present condition of the ex-Confederacy it will he no easy matter to find supplies for such an army. The friends of the negro view the threatened importation with great disfavour, and some persons look on the movement with as a revival of the slave system in another. form. The coolies are, however, to be free and protected in their labours, the only .tipulation beins. that they shat I not break their contract with theiremployers. Koopmanschaap and his friends intended holding a pul lie meeting in New York to advocate the movement, but found that public opinion was not suffi ciently favourable. The cotton interest, however, strongly supports the scheme, since there is reason to apprehend the total decline of American supremacy over the cotton markets of the world unless this labour question be speedily raljusted and the Southern cotton plantation once more fully cultivated. RUSSIA. The Correspondana Slave, a paper width has just made its appearance as a representative of the Slavonic interests, says that the insurrection of the Hhirghiz tribes on the south east frontier of Asia is assuming very alarming proportions. An army of 40,000 Russians is assembled in the neighbourhood, and even this force has been found insufficient to quell the reLellious tribes. The same journal says that the ruthless stamping out of the Polish nationality has led to the mutilation of the 'Warsaw University. The two faculties of law and medicine have been removed and established in two separate provincial towns. TITE PROROGATION. In consequence of Ministers' decision to proceed with the Scotch Education Bill, the session will be prole n-red a little. The prorogation can hardly take place before the 12th, though some melancholy mem bers hope for the 10th. The Government will pro bably have enough to do to pull through by the later date. It is clear enough that a considerable body of members, headed by Lord Elcbo, are determined to Tare no pains to bring the Scotch Bill to grief. If the Scotch representatives continue to speak six times every sitting, as some of them have done, it is not rasy to foretell when the committee will get through :he last clause. Then, when the Commons have finished with it, the Lords have to consider whether they will accept a measure from which almost every amendment which they originally made has been struck out. Mr. Bruce thought that if the bill be got through the Lower House by the end of the week, the Lords will finish with it on Monday. The Standard ridicules this notion. TUE IRISH BISHOPS AND THEIR CHURCH. The Conference of the Irish Bishops, after two days' deliberation, terminated on Wednesday after noon. The prelates unanimously resolved that a general synod, in which the clergy and the laity are to be fully end equally represented, should be assembled as soon as possible. Further, "As the existing representation of the clergy in the provin cial synods is imperfect, it is desirable, for the carry ing out of the foregoing resolution, that these synods be convened to consider the changes which would be necessary to adapt their representation to the piesent circumstances of the Church." Touching the great question, " What will the Irish Protestant s d o F ' the Dublin correspondent of the Standard observes that if the Church Body decide on availing themselves of the offer to com mute, and the clergy agree to do so, it is most im portant that applications to commute should be ready to be sent in to the Commissioners on the Ist of January, 1871. In the case of all vacancies occur ing after that data, where no_ previous application has been made, the benefit of commutation will be lost to th e Church. But no application can be made before January 1, 1871. The Dublin Freeman thinks it possible that some of the cathedrals which were to have been blown up with gunpowder rather than handed over to the Catholics, may, after all, be "restored to their ori ginal uses." Up to the lat of July, 1871, the Pro testant epthtekseemeinathreedrpaairls, o t e n s ta givingnt C Church properrch n iay guaranteeotherwise they become, public property. In the claim any n to y opinion of the Freeman, the laity , at least, will not be anxious to maintain these costly edifices when parish churches will do as well. The Protestant Church will not want all the cathedrals, and there is, therefore, reason to believe that some of them wil! pass to the Catholics with the concurrence of Pro testan ts. I ADVERTISEMENT.] - Holloway's rills are the most gentle, yet most effective, aperients, and therefore better calculated for a family medicine than any other. They always set the stomach right, rouse the liver, stimulate the kidneys, and thoroughly cleanse the whole system. Holloway's pills are Trost useful in chronic weakness of the stomach, induced by luxurious living, sedentary habits, or othe causes. They have restored the emaciated to health after every other means had failed. While they are purifying they are strengthening, while regulating they are increasing nervous and muscular power. These pills do not excite any violent action in the body; hence they are specially suited to the young awl feeble, whose constitutions may be irretrievably injured by more strong medicines.
