HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52, Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti cation. 52, Fleet-street. At home from 10 till 5. X &SOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UIC- L FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CII ALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-hill, London, E.C. Established 1848. The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob jection not unfrequent]y 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 is.me Assurances under them which shall be absolutely Unforfeitable, Unconditional, and Unchallengeablo. 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 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the dis'cont'inuance of the assurance. The assured will thus always have the option of retain ing either an ascertained ilx.zcl sum payalo.e 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 likew:se 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-fire years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this cluis 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 a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengeable 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 busine.s of any office in the Kingdom. SPECIAL AGENTS WANTED. HENRY HARBEN, Secretary. CLERICAL. MEDICAL, AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANcE SOCIETY. 13, ST. JAMES'S SQUARE, LONDON, S.W. CHAIRMAN. Right Hon. John Robert Mowbray, M.P. DEPUTY-CHAIRMEN. William Bowman, Esq., 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 4412,345 was proposed for Assurance, of which £307,395 was completed at Premiums pro ducing £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 were even less than for many years past. 3. On the other hand, 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. ENDOWMENT ASSURANCES may be effected, without Profits, by which the Sum Assured becomes pay able on the attainment of a specified age, or at death, whichever event shall first happen. INVALID LIVES may be assured at rates proportioned to the increased risk. PROMPT SETTLEMENT OP CLAIMS.—Claims paid thirty days after proof of death. Tables of Rates and Forms of Proposal can be obtained of any of the Society's Agents, or of GEORGE CUTOLIFFE, Actuary and Secretary. 13, St. James's-square, London. S.W. On WedneAay the Times h;ld an nth which opened with a 6:tong indictment agains:. Sumner, whose unreasonable demands forced 1.1. e South into the civil war, and thereby as , oeiated Lis name with the opening chapter of that disas trous epoch. Ills demands then were of the same preposterous nature as his claims now, and as the imes insinuates may lead to another terrible cala mity. It goes on to show that for every act which might be construed into an infraction of interna tional law, of England against America; there were ten such acts by America against England, and_ if English sympathy and assistance were toa ards the South in the struggle, American symi why and assistance were still more in favour of every enemy of England, in every British emergency since the birth of the Republic. The 'I imes asserts Oat if the upper classes in England were not sorry to see the Union endangered, it was the fault of Americans who had never ceased to aid those whose design it was to sever the British Union. The Standard takes the warlike attitude that venerable lady assumes when her pride is touched. Senator Chandler's proposal it regards as more dangerous than Set - later Sumner's famous oration, which had the good effect of reducing conflicting English views to a common ! denominator, and making a unit of British re sistine. to American aggression. England before had been able when united to overcome greater difficulties than now, or ever again can threaten. Were Senator Sumner's speech embodied in diplo matic demands they would make America the laugh. ing-stock of the world, for they would resolve the negotiations into a farce ; and the Standard thinks they could only have been put forward as a prelimi nary to Mr. Chandler's demand for the cession of the Canadas. That would be more difficult to dispose of, for 4 , thePhilo-Americansin this country, Repub lican sympathisers eager to advance the Democratic cause andstrike any blow at Monarchical institutions, have long been in the habit of assuming that in the progress of events Canada must necessarily fall a prey to the Union." Englishmen have been found to dishonour their birth by their attempts to betray the loyal Canadians into the hands of the Philis tines : " In this way it has come to pass that a dema :d fur the cession of the British North American provinces may not strike all parties in this country with the same feeling of indignation which A would be excited by any other 'demand which, though it might not in reality be more unwarrant able or insulting, would be less familiar. There would be a party, let us hope it would be a small one, but still there would be a party in this c,ouutry,:prepared to defend and justify such a demand." After striking these stunning blows, which we, being among the culprits, could not but feel, the Standard asserts that it behoves the British to preparo, to let Americans clearly know where concessions will stop and peaceable endurance end ; that England, no mat ter what the consequences, N. ill refuse to surrender a foot of colonial territorycxcept. through the action of the colonists themselves, and that any attempt to in fringe this principle would bring about a war with the whole power of Great Britain. While discuss ing the Standard, we may mention that there is an excellent letter, also in Thursday's issue, from " An American Shipowner." lie, in a few teling sen tences, points out two errors undor which his coati turtle!' I our as to the consequences of the cscape of the Alabama and other pirates; the one, that they prolonged the war, the other that they per manently weakened American preponderance upon the ocean. We regret that we cannot trans fer this letter intact to our columns, for it is an admirable resume of the arguments for the posi tion all along taken by the Anglo-American Times. But there are a few points too important to be omitted. This American ship owner, himself a sufferer from the Alabama, calls the Confederate effort to get up a Navy " f asserting the " ornamental fighting" done by Semmes and others to have injured in a material way their cause in Eng land, annihilating the Southern sentiment, perhaps preventing the union with France in recognizing the independence of the Confederate States. They supplied nothing to the South, they did nothing in aid of Lee or Stonewall Jackson, their work being only unmitigated evil, alike to themselves and to every one else. The monstrous taxation prevented America, on the termination of hostilities, from re gaining her preponderance, and Congress unwisely declined to allow the vessels transferred to the Bri tish flag during the war to hoist the Star Spangled Banner after it. But a change had also taken place whereby the ship-building in which the Union excelled became a thing of the past—wooden sail ing vessels having given place to iron screw s' earners, in which the British excelled, as the Americans had formerly done in wooden sailing ships. The sentimen tal part of the question only is seen by the greatmass of Americans, who, having settled West, away back from the Atlantic, know little of the subject, and believe in the figurative talk of sails whitening the ocean. The " Ship-owner" desires that Mr. Bright would institute an inquiry as President of the Board of Trade into the cause of the increase of British and the decrease of American shipping, and he is so popular . in America that he would be believed there as readily as any statesman of the Republic. We may here observe that he would find the whole ground already traversed by Consul-General Morse, in a fair and equitable spirit, a journey which took him to the same conclusion as . the " Ship-owner," and, as all practical Americans ac quainted with the subject. One point more. The Americans who sold their ships to foreigners during the war receives a higher price than could since have been obtained for them. Will Mr. Sumner give England credit for this, when assessing the damages? The Daily News concurs with nearly all other English journals in thinking Mr Stunner's exposition absurd, and the supposition that a de mand could be made on England for the cession of Canada, in liquidation, preposterous. If the Pall Mall Gazette represents the " gentlemen" of Eng land, they are in a fighting mood. Our evening contemporary is bitter as well as bellicose, and is raking together against Americans every vicious scrap it can glean. The letter of an American correspondent to a morning paper furnished an op portunity, as it gave specimens of how New York was governed. Every one knows that a rowdy Irish mob has been so skilfully organized in that city as to rule ; and Cork might as well be pointed to as a specimen of Democratic Government. There is a pleasant little habit Cockneys have of forget ting their own shortcomings, for, in three years, more iniquitous swindling was done in London-- and by the respectability, too, of the City—than in a generation in New York, and with worse coup quences. The Pall Mall censures the Spectator for admitting that America had any grievance at all against England, and proceeds much in the same way as Mr. Sumner, on the other side, to prove this, taking the road which so often brings us alltogrief. Thusnationsdrift intowars; thusindivid uals into law courts. But however one-sided the arguments may be they are intelligible, whether American or British, and we who endeavour to get as near the centre as we can are called British by Americans, and American by the British. Having, however, the arguments on both sides before ü b s :l m .t .e can comprehend'them ; but we confess our inability (as ly to understand Mr. Reverdy Johnson_'s.tre.auli.av Fund circumstances anything reported in the limes) at the Royal the, American Minister was on his ?
