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 iden tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than those of last year by nearly X 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 51 per cent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : DR. LIABILITIES.

FENTON had been nominated Senator from New York by a Legislative caucus ; JOHN SCOTT had been nominated from Pennsylvania, CARL SCHURZ from Missouri, ALEXANDER RAMSAY from Min nesota, CHARLES SUMNER from Massachusetts, WILLIAM CUMBACK from Indiana, ZACHARIAII CHANDLER from Michigan, WILLIA:,I M. STEWART from Nevada, THOMAS W. TIFTON from Nebraska —all Republicans ; JOHN P. STOCKTON from New Jersey, Democrat. Mr. FENToN, whose term as Go vernor for the State of New York expired on New Year's .day, defeated for that very office in the pre ceding term Mayor HoFFmaN, who then succeeded him, by a majority of 13,789, the totals being 366,315 for FENTON, the Republican candidate, against 352,526 for HOFFMAN, the Democratic. The general opinion was that. E. D. MORGAN would be re-elected Senator. JouN SCOTT was nominated by acclamation for Pennsylvania in place of Senator BUCKALEW. The contest was thought to be doubtful. At the beginning of the year 35 members arrived at Harrisburg, when ex-Governor Gnow and Congress man MOOREHEAD appeared the more likely aspirants, especially the latter, whom Western Pennsylvania supported to a man. However, on the 6th instant, JOHN SCOTT was nominated by acclamation, all other candidates having withdrawn in his favour, ex cept Attorney-General BREWSTER. No one knows why such strong candidates as MOOREHEAD and GROW withdrew ; nor does a letter written by Mr. Gnow explain, while it is certain that the choice, from whatever motives, of Mr. Son has caused an open rupture between Mr. BREWSTER and Senator CAMERON. General CARL ScHußz has been, as we anticipated, successful in Missouri against J. B. HENDERsoN,although, if an improbable report be true, against the opposition of General GRANT. Mr. HENDERSON'S vote on Impeachment, and his course since, have led to the general opinion among Republicans that he does not sincerely be long to their party, although he professes to do so, and this impression was strengthened by the sup port of the National Intelligencer, the PRESIDENT'S organ, while there are many reasons to be found in our former numbers why CARL SCHURZ should secure a seat in the Senate, chief among which is that he would fairly represent there the German ele ment in the Union. Governor RAMSAY was re nominated against Mr. WILKINsoN on the 14th inst., and will keep the seat he at present so worthily fills. About SUMNER we need only say that this able statesman and brilliant orator is now known to prefer the Senate to a seat in the Cabinet, as does Governor FENToIt. Lieutenant-Governor CUMBACK served a term in Congress with credit to himself. lleis comparatively young, and there appeared when the mail left strong reasons for believing he would be selected to succeed Mr. T. A. llENDructis, Demo crat. Michigan had, before the departure of the mail decided to stand by her old Senator, ZACHARIAII CHANDLER, by a vote of 78 to 20 scattering. Mr. CHANDLER has been a good deal abused for the anti teetotal example he sets; indeed there is a leading arti de in the Republican about him, wherein this sentence occurs : " But Mr. CHANDLER'S fault is not that ho takes a social glass of wine, but that he has habi tually used liquor to such an extent as to make him reckless, indecorous, and scandalous." It goes on to say, " The demand is at the present time im perative, to purify our politics, exact temperance, integrity, and propriety of conduct from all our public men, and create a deep and wide national sentiment in favour of the old-fashioned honesty and decency in office. Corruption is coming in upon us like a flood ;" adding that it can only be stayed by good men banding together in inexorable opposition, and while admitting that Mr. CHANDLER was making a desperate effort to break himself of the habit, it recommends the high clear air of Michigan as preferable to that of Washington, so trying to reform. Apropos of intoxication, we give the following extract from the same paper, premising that the gentlemen alluded to are strong Democrats and the paper is strongly Republican : " Senator SAULSBURY was lately arrested at Wil mington, Delaware, for drunken and disorderly con duct at the residence of Senator BAYARD, his col league. When the officers found him be was lying on the floor partially undressed. The Mayer, after a short farce of a trial, discharged the tipsy Sena tor." Talking of Delaware-, whose eyes are now on her Senators, we learn that Mr. BAYARD is to be succeeded by his own son. A more recent tele gram confirms this, Trios. F. BAYARD being elected in succession to his father. But if the above story be true, we can only regret he does not succeed WILLIAM SAULSBURY, whose term expires in 1871. We cannot yet indicate the politics of the Senators from the Re constructed States; but nearly all of them are Re publicans. Senator STEWART has been renominated from Nevada, and Mr. TfrroN from Nebraska, both Republicans. The Democratic triumph is the succession of Jorm P. STOCKTON to the place of FRELINGHUYSEN, the present Republican Senator from New Jersey. SENATE OF THE FORTY-FIRST CONGRESS. (Names of Democrat Schuyler Colfax, of George C. Gorl Term MAINE. Expired.

Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas have no place, as they have not yet been re constructed, and it is not impossible that Georgia may be expelled, while Mississippi may be admitted. e may here add that we took the trouble to write to the Times to point out a gross blunder in the spelling of a Senator's name (Lupton for Tipton), but we presume it matters little at Priuting-house square what they call the Senators of the United Statcs, for the correction was never made nor the error acknowledged, although they come down quick enough on an unfortunate Frenchman who announces that the Lord Mayor, meaning Lord MAYO, had been appointed Viceroy of India.
