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 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.

CR. CHARGE OF THE YEAR Dividend to proprietors Cla;ms on decease of lives assured £265,523 13 5 Additions to those under The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob jection not infrequently 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 cialls 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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 fig 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 aro 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 withon a 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 be entirely removed, and the Policies will become at once positively valuable as ,rticipating policies 22,816 4 7 Policies surrendered 28,642 11 3 Re-assurances, now 3,270 15 4 Ditto, old 50,365 0 8 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-fire years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this cltss as security,. may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to advance so as to mail:tain the full benefit of the Assurauzes—a matter of great importance where pacies are held as collateral security. It is ruely nerrsBary to 8.1.1 t h at, as a consegnenee of the policies under these tables l ein> uuforreitable anti uneon dilional, they will also be uncliallongyable on any t'round whatever.

The Flensberg North-German Gazette is informed that negotiations concerning the cession of North-Schleswig to Denmark have been reopened, at the request of the Prussian Government. The Flensberg paper does not state the cause of this change of policy, except that the " complaints of the inhabitants have at length made them selves heard at Berlin." This can hardly be accepted as a satisfactory explanation of a cession of territory by Prussia. AUSTRIA AND POLAND. The Prussians have been a good deal disquieted, ac cording to the Times Berlin correspondent, by a remark of the Austrian Emperor at a soiree given to the members of the Vienna Parliament. One of the Polish deputies, conversing with his Majesty, complained that Galician affairs had not received all the attention they deserved during the past session. To this the Emperor answered that as the political situation of the moment did not admit of the Galician petition being acceded to, it was, perhaps, as well that it should not be made the subject of a parliamentary debate. "Let us hope," be added, "that circumstances will have changed by next year, when you are likely to have a better chance." This pointed utte rance has created some excitement at Berlin. It is well known that to concede further liberties, and especially an autonomy, to the Austrian Poles, would be a direct chal lenge to Russia, whose policy is to stamp out every spark of Polish nationality. FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES IN GERMANY. The North-German Ministers have been driven to one desperate expedient in order to clear off the large deficit of nearly twelve million thalers (about £3,600,000) presented by the Confederation Budget. Amongst the numerous taxes proposed to regain the balance of affairs is one of 10 per cent. on railway tickets. Seldom has a more unwise project entered the head of a financier. It is clear that if the companies raise their fares so as to make the public pay this tax, their traffic will fall off in at least equal proportion, and thus nothing will be gained. If they do not increase their fares the tax will simply be a charge of ten per cent. on dividends. The proposition is ridiculous. MAZZINI. The Ticino Council of State, in accordance to the determination of the Federal Government of Switzerland, gave notice to Mazzini that he must quit the canton within three days after the receipt of their missive. Mazzini, in reply, pledged his word that he would leave the territory on the 20th of May. He stigmatised his expulsion as "an act unjust in itself, servile to a foreign monarchy, and unprovokAmt,.v any violation of your laws on my part." THE ASSASSINATION AT LEGHORN. The information received by the papers of Vienna and Florence leaves no doubt that the Austrian Consul at Leg. horn was assassinated in mistake for General Crenneville, and that political revenge was the motive for the crime. The journals of Vienna say that the assassin has been arrested. THE UNITED STATES. Joint-stock property meets with queer treatment in America. Messrs. Fisk, Gould and Lane, the three directors of the Erie Company who have perpetrated such extraordinary swindles during the last few months, have prepared a railway bill for the express purpose of keeping themselves in office. This local measure has to secure the consent of the New York Governor, and the share holders are anxiously awaiting the decision of their fate, which, it appears, they have no power to control themselves. Governor Hoffman has on previous occasions exhibited a decided disinclination to counte nance these legislative attempts at fraud. This measure will be the test of his " quality," as the New York Times puts it. On the one hand, he is to consider that it is one of the most flagrant outrages ever perpetrated on a body of helpless stockholders, in the interest of a few reckless and unscrupulous stockjobbers ; on the other, that the " Ring " demand its being signed in order to keep them selves in funds for the coming campaign. SIR SAMUEL BAKER'S AFRICAN EXPEDITION. Sir Samuel Baker arrived at Alexandria on the 14th. The Viceroy, says the correspondent of the Daily News, is very ardent in his desire to suppress the slave trade in the White Nile region. Great preparations have been made for the expedition which Sir Samuel is to lead for that purpose. "As the preliminarier of the expedition, such as the construction of three small steamers, Snider guns for some of the troops, and the purchase of large quantities of Manchester goods and hardwares, were personally attended to by Sir Samuel whilst in England, on terms which have caused the Viceroy the greatest satisfaction, the illustrious traveller intends remaining among us and superintending here also the most minute Beta is of this important undertaking. '1 he expeditlonary force will be composed of 200 cavalry and 1,300 infantry—Arabs and. Nubians mostly—all well armed and perfectly equipped, with fourteen mountain guns and plenty of ammunition. The Viceregal commis sion grants unprecedented liberty to Sir Samuel Baker in the exercise of his functions. He has been nominated generalissimo of the army, with power of life and death, and governor-general of the kingdomsbeyondGondokoro." Never before has an Oriental sovereign granted such power to a European. Sir Samuel's policy, however, will, of course, be to avoid bloodshed as much as possible. He contemplates eating his Christmas dinner on the shores of the Albert Nyanza Lake.
