BSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN ci FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-hill, Loudon, E.C. _ _ 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 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 Unchallenge3ble. d that, i n th e even t of many persons hesitate or decline e r tthoearsesausroen on n e f t e h r e r e g d r o t u o n , 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 f ree f rom a ll 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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 assureit 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 ba n k ers, cap it a li sts, an d others who are in the habit of making advances collaterally secure mere indsbpyecLtiiofne,Ptholeiceixeas,e t value,asth e they can at any time learn, by either immediate or re versionary, of a Policy of this description. Every Policy issued on this plan will be without any conditions as to voyazing, 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 1 ngest term provided for is twenty-five years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, 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 a consequence of the policies under these tables being uuforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengeable on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Pelieies. The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of S 9 -- 15 , 0 00 a year. Its position is of row un questionable, and it obtains the largest amount • business of spy office i n th e Hingdorn. SPECIAL AGENTS WANTED.

FREDERIC ANDREW No.-10,Poultrf Loudon EC S , Secretary. Poultry', London, _I • • eptember, 1868. There is reason to believe that General GRANT expressed an opinion adverse to the CLARENDON 'JOHNSON Convention freely and strongly during his visit to New York, and we regard this as the most unfavourable circumstance connected with this most unfortunate subject of dispute. If the PRESIDENT be decidedly hostile to any settlement (for any other settlement we believe to be impos sible), the question must remain open as an un healed sore, perhaps hereafter to stir up the States into uncontrollable irritation—perhaps for retalia tion, which would immediately produce war. This will be the deliberate election of the United States, for England is acknowledged to have ell - seeded Mr. SEWARD'S demands, an Ito have satisfie 1 not only the United States Executive, but the Pleriipoten- Cary chosen by the Senate without a dissentient voice to conduct this very negotiation. The Re public is under the im2ression that she can wait ; th Ltt her claims lose name of their force by time ; and that iit them she h l3 a standing. grievance an menace against Great Britain. We consider this to be a most unfortunate dausion, born of the old arrogance of man assuming the place of Pnovt- DENCE. There is no country so placed as to need the speedy removal of disputes more than the United States. England is an old, settled Monarchy, worn into its present form by the friction of ages, ac companied by numerous convulsions and dreadful wars. She is an extinct volcano which might blaze up again, but now shows no signs, indeed in thiEf way is believed to be exhausted. Her late elec tions have proved a marvellous similarity of feeling through all classes, from the Land's End to Johnny Groat's llouse, the whole people with very slight divergence thinking alike. The foreign policy of England is such that nothing save the most wanton aggression could drive her into war, and possessing the knowledge that a war with any other country would involve a war also with the United States she is bound in heavy damages to keep the peace. Her weak spot is Ireland, bat Americans exaggerate the degree of her weakness there. Such is the nation which some Americans consider will soon offer them the chance for retalia tion by its becoming involved in strife. Although the United States are masters of their continent, and separated from other Powers by an ocean, yet we doubt whether their chance of war be not greater than that of England, The Union is the most rapid formation of a first-class Power ever known, not created by conquest. She is a volcano lately in active eruption, and even now smoking. The elements of contention are scattered abroad, and subjects of dispute grow quickly and loom threaten ingly in the future. It is possible the United States may desire to keep this foreign difficulty to neutralize home I difficulties, on the same principle that a homeopathist treats his patient; but though it may answer for the physical body, we doubt its applicability to the body politic, convinced that the speediest and com plete settlement of a dispute is, as a rule, the best. The chances are that in future political contests public attention being absorbed the Alabama claims will be wholly or partially lost sight of. Dropped for a few years, it will be difficult again to arouse for them public attention, for they involve endless, wearisome despatches, and much dry legal references. The general impression will then be that England's offer to pay for the damage caused by the piratical cruisers which got to sea from her harbours was refused by the United States. The proposal to submit the case to arbitration will esta blish a precedent favourable to Great Britain, and one that will tell against the United States if cruisers escaping from a pore of the Republic here after destroy British commerce. Why should not the United States then do what Great Britain now does ?—offer to submit the claims to arbitration. The nation that proposes to do this will find it more profitable to keep their cruisers at home; yet the precedent will be difficult for America to evade. Thus England, by this rejected Convention, will have materially improved her position in a matter before so bad that Englishmen scarcely liked to talk of it. Mr. GEORGE TICKNOR CURTIS'S letter, tranferred from the New York World to the Times, forcibly states the reasons why the Convention should not be rejecte lin America. But our object is rather to consider what might reasonably be ex pected to be the position if the claims remain unsettled during GRANT'S Administration. " Ilis toricu3" anrusingly arrogant now as always, be lieves, and so do we, th it, notwithstanding the PRESIDE 'S opinion, who really knows little or nothing of foreign affairs, that the subject will be reconsidered after his inauguration, either through another Ambassador instructed by his Administra tion, or, as suggested by a writer in an evening paper, by the despatch from England of such a Minister as Mr. JOHN BRIGHT. The hope is all the brighter as there are no people easier to deal with than Americans, if the authorities only know he way ; but it has been the misfortune of England to be ignorant of America in density almost in proportion to rank; and as rank rules in Britain, that ignorance has caused unlooked-for mischief. A glance shows many home reasons why the dispute should not be kept open, although they have nothing to do with the Convention or the claims. Although General GRANT enters the White house with the exclamation still clinging to him "LA us have Peace," the sort of peace he is about to have has been aptly illustrate 1 in the clunting of the electoral votes. On the one side were the Senate, ' on the other the Representatives, and on the floor, l in angry controversy, were the champions of those bodies. The question was whether the votes of Georgia should be counted; the Senate had ruled that they should, the house that they should not ; but the President of the Senate was the presiding officer of the joint Convention, and the Speaker of i the House was about to succeed to his office. Their ruling was on the decision of the Senate setting aside that of the House as if it bad never been made, and BEN BUTLER, with his sleetes tucked up, was battling for the rights of the Re presentatives, cheered by most of them, while the Senators upheld the presiding officer. After the Senate had retired to their own Chamber, BUTLER proposed a strong resolution of censure for this in fringement of the rights and privileges of the people. There is a fight brewing between the Senate and the Representatives which does not augur peace. Last Monday, the Republican caucus of the Senate decided to take no action on the T e nure-of-Office means ßepeal d ß ist il r l us u t n o ti f l g still less bodes Peace. The Senate of next week trtinceoomnlrnegss.presli'dheantt,simapulay for the new Congress will have taken their seats ere tah l e m y o t s r t a i n d s e f n e t r ic t a h l e with the present body: t heref o re they transfer the de ision from th emselves, before GRANT proclaims his wethe go pr e t s o e I p l t r e t s s e t a v g a : c in vili b. with Cabinet, to themselves aifleteirnGenßAhNeTshelaescstse.Ut Should their o u l a the wishes of the Senate Ch a mber the nam es of t t h ose c hosen not ta ll y the Act will not be repealed, and ( t A the face of this difficulty, a grave misun derstanding with that legislative body w i t h which he is m ost brou g ht into contact. Does l l s 'e r n itsir immediately e-o ; ffl lce in A this portend peace ? Simultaneously with GRANT'S inauguration a firebrand will be thrown into the country, for ex-President JOHNSON, stripped of the trammels of his high office, will stand free to take up the gauntlet cast down by the Radical chiefs. It is a mistake to suppose that ANDREW JOHNSON Will partyformed has his Presidential ih drift into retirement to brood over the Radical in tdeirgmni.tiesAladirneflicyted on him great Ten nessee which he has been invited to head, and the fiercest political conflict ever known in that State is there anticipated. Now this means somethi •ng to those who know the limits of a political contest Tennessee, nor are these el emen t s o f s t r if e t o be in re strained within the boundaries of a State. The proceedings which gave the epithet of " Bleeding" to Kansas inaugurated the civil war, and although a man would have been pronounced mad who pre dicted that JOHN BROWN was but the herald of a mighty invasion, yet we now look back and see the smooth sequence ; event following event in the na tural order of things, although our glance is over States devastated—a prairie of graves—and a poli tical change which makes the Union of 1869 differ widely from the Union of 1860. The moral we de rive from all this is the same for which we have so long contended, and it is that giv en b y our SAVIOUR— " Agree with thine adversary q uickl y , whiles. thou art in the way with hiul!" . , • _ . •
