The directors draw special attention to the fact that 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 IL 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. By order of the Board, JOHN MESSENT, Actuary and Secretary.

FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSVRANCE COMPANY,' 62, 'Ludgate-bill, London; E.C. '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 theii' opinion defective or uncertain, by reason of the operation of the customary conditions, have resolved to promulgate the present Tables, and to issue Assurer)Ces under them which shall be absolutely Unforkitable, Unconditional, and Unchallengeable. For the reason referred to ; many persons hesitate or decline to ttElpire.. i .wthe ground that, in the event of in ability oFtll),willinguAcgt to continue payment of their pre miums, the Assurance will boconac forfeited. To this cuss 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 pzeiniutn paid, baring 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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 assure 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 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 issued on this plan will be withist any conditions as to voyaging, foreign residence, or oth*nsual 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 1 term provided for is twenty-five sealskins , d the shortest five years, as shown by the Tabl. bankers, credi ' tors, and others holding policies of this class 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 great importance where policies are held as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as n consequence of the c o h re al b le e n a g p e t a l b y le ter o m n policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon eadnyAbgrolnunted vi di b ti a o t n e a v l, or t . hey Th w e i y ll m al a s y o Security Policies.

WM. COBBETT, Secretary. LAUNCH OF A 7'URKISH . 1IIONCL.41). An armour-clad ship for the Turkish Govern mEnt; was launched yesterday from the Thames Ironworks and Shipbbilding Company's yard at -Blackwell. Though only e small vessel there are peculiarities in her construction which, prima facie, appear to solve the difficult problem of the best mode of fighting the heavy ordnance which will be used in future naval warfare. She is designed by Mr. Geo. C. Mackrow, naval architect to the com pany, who may claim the credit of originating a system combining the best points both of the turret and broadside batteries. His thoroughly practical idea was first developed in a small ironclad of 1,000 tons, built last year for the Greek Government, which carried two 12-ton guns in a fixed milship battery, capable of firing fore and aft, or at an angle on the broadside. In the ship launched yesterday, which is only 400 tons larger than the Greek, his first plan has been improved upon, so that four 12-ton guns are car ried. It is difficult to convey a correct i lea of the simple and effective means by which these four guns are arranged to fire either all ahead, all astern, or all on either broal,i le, converging, in the After case, on an object at 110 yards' distance. Perhaps it may best , he done, however, by stating that fore and aft of this central battery the ship tumbles home above the water line, so as to diminish the spar deck space in such a way that the guns can be pointed from the batttery in the way described. The central batteries or towers are nearly hexago nal, with four ports placed in each angle, so that the guns can be trained to fire either in line with the keel or on the broadside. In fact, the fire of the foremost guns slightly converge. The two after guns can fire forward with 10 deg. of the keel line, so that if the ship was engaging an enemy directly ahead, a single spoke of the wheel would bring them to bear upon the enemy without affecting the ship's speed. In like manner, if engaging au enemy astern, the two after guns would fire nearly in line with the keel, while the two for ward guns would come within 20 degrees, so that very little interference with the ship's course would bring them to bear directly. It will be seen from this imperfect description that Mr. Mackrow has, for all practical purposes, obtained the all-round fire, which makes the turret system so valuable, without the drawbacks of the opening in the deck in which the turret revolves, and of the necessity of having bulwarks to fa'l down in order to fight the guns. In his system the bulwarks are all iron, fixed inside the lines of fire, and being decked over there is comfortable accommodation for the crew. The free-board in the ship launched yesterday is 11 feet 6 inches, the height of the port sills being 6 feet 6 inches. She bids fair to be a thoroughly seaworthy craft, comfortable even in the worst weather, so that in this respect a practical com parison of her merits against those of the cupola or turret class will be watched with much interest. The Turks appear to have considerable faith in this new system, for they have a sister ship Low under con struction by Mr. Samuda, and a somewhat larger vessel by the Thames Shipbuilding Company. The dimensions of the one just launched are as follows : Length, 8.P., 225 ft. ; breadth, 35ft. 6in.; depth, 20ft. ; draft when fully equipped, 16ft. ; engines, 400-horse power; armament, four 12-ton guns, or 300-pounders ; armour-plated 6in., on 10-inch teak backing. The engines are single screw, of 40 no minal horse power, by Messrs. Ravenhill, Hodgson, and Co., who anticipate being able to drive the ship from 131 to 14 knots. The ceremony of christening was performed by Miss Musurus, the daughter of his Excellency the Turkish Ambassador, who was present, together with the Turkish Consul, and a goodly party of ladies and gentlemen. Miss Musurus performed her sponsorial - duty with charming -- grace and naiveté, naming the good ship Avni-Illah, or the Divine Assistance. Nothing could be more successful than the launch, for the mo ment the ship's weight came upon the cradles she glided smoothly and swiftly into the muddy water of Bow Creek, and thence was towed at once to the yard of Messrs. Ravenhill to have her engines fitted. At a luncheon, which took place . ,.after the Lunch, Mr. Peter Rolt, the chairman of the copal any, occupied the chair. After the usual congratulatory toasts, the health of Mr. Watts, the late Constructor of the Navy, was drunk. That gentleman, who had superin tended for the Turkish Government, the building in returning of the ship tha thanks, paid a very high compliment to the Thames Ironworks aid Ship Building Company for the integrity they had always displayed in the execution of their contracts.

William Bowman Es F.R.S. Sir Charles Locock, Bart, D.C.L., Extracts from the Report of the Directors, presented at the Annual General Meeting held on the 27th November, 1868 :- 1. The sum of £412,345 was proposed for Assurance, of which £307,395 was completed at Premiums pro- dining £10,067 per Annum. 2. The amount paid under Claims by death was £100,883, being the smallest since 1860, whilst the expenses of management and all other outgoings wore even less than for many years past. 3. On the other band, the Income was raised to £219,769, notwithstanding that its increase was retarded by abatements of premium which did not take effect in the previous year, and by the cessation of interest on the large sum paid as Bonus in 1867. 4. The Surplus income was very considerable. It amounted to £93,152, a sum exceeding by more than £B,OOO any previous Surplus during the forty-four years of the Society's existence. 5. The Accumulated Fund was thereby increased to £1,598,906. The following are among the distinctive features of the society : CREDIT SYSTEM.—On any Policy for the whole of Life, where the age does not exceed 60, one-half of the Annual Premiums during the past five years may remain on credit.
