The final appeal to the Supreme Courts has resulted in a sentence of penal servitude for life in the cases of Ajani, Sterbini, and Luzzi, and of terms of minor duration for the rest of the conspirators. The crime of high treason was fully proved in all cases, but as sentence of death is rarely pronounced—still more rarely carried out—for poli tical offences in the Pontifical States, the Consulta only acted in accordance with the clemency of the laws in avoiding a difficult and delicate matter. After the threats of the Italian Government, had sentence of death been pro nounced it must have been carried out, and as the facts of Traa tavero did not present the same features of cowardly guilt as those of Serristori, the Pope would have felt great repugnance to an execution which it was possible to avoid. The whole batch of prisoners will be sent to Pagliano to undergo their sentence. ed as compositors, e clothiers believe successful.

It might very fairly be asked, if Italy has a firm intention of adhering to the convention, what can it matter to her whether the Pope's army is augmented or not. The constant reclamations on this subject sound very like those of the wolves who persuaded the sheep to dismiss their dogs Dad trust to them for protection.

The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob jection not unfrequently urged by parsons 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 Unforfoitable, 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 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 ptemium 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 itnportal)t 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 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 ono 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 Lifo 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 coedit ions 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-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 unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengeable on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies.

Mrs. Firmin still lies in a very dangerous condition, and her eldest daughter will, it is feared, be disfigured for life. An address was presented on Tuesday to the Pope by the various strangers of distinction now in Rome of diffe rent nations, among whom the names of FUrstenberg- Lechtenstein, Salm-Clury, Windischgratz, Von Blom, among the Germans ; De Valori, De Sabian, De Mirepoix, De Crazelles, De Blams, De la Ferronnaye, among the French ; Maxwell, Stourton, Bodelsham7 of Rytturwas, Vavasour, Melman, Wyse, and Petre, among the English, were the most worthy of note. There was also a conside rable number of Spaniards, Milanese, and Belgians, making altogether 450 gentlemen and noblemen of nearly every country in Europe. The address was expressive of the most devoted obedience to the Holy See, and of the hopes Europe reposed in the assemblage of the General Council for restoring peace and order to the world. It was drawn up and read by Count von Thom, the ex. Minister of Public Instruction in Vienna. Just as he ended reading it, a very eccentric but zealous adherent of the Pope, Don Antonio Almeida, nephew of the late Portuguese Ambassador, the Duke of Saldanha, rushed forward, and throwing himself on his knees before the Pope, who with great difficulty maintained his gravity, began a voluble protest against all the acts of the Portu guese Government since the Liberal Administration 4 attacked the Church. Don Antonio was happily induced to desist by his friends, and the Pope then proceeded to reply in a short but well•worded discourse to the gentlemen presenting the address. He thanked them for their zeal and devotion, and said that much now devolved on the Catholic laymen of all countries to stem the tide of infidelity and immorality now abroad in every part of Europe. He expressed a firm reliance on Provi dence in the difficulties of the Holy See, and on the aid of the Holy Spirit in the approaching Council, and concluded by the usual benediction. It is more than probable that a complete reform in the discipline of the religious orders will be carried out by the Council. The Pope, at the beginning of his reign, was desirous of effecting it, and of restoring them to their primitive fervour. Those in Rome which have been always under the eye of the Holy See leave little to be desired, but in the provinces reforms on minors points are required, and will be effected by the Church herself. I do not speak of so-called " scandals," for immorality is extremely rare ; but of relaxation of sincerity, and of separation from the original purpose and spirit of the institute. In the Sicilies and Tuscany especially this has long been the case, from the jealousy of any inter ference which existed on the part of both the Grand Duke and the King of Naples, and which prevented Rome from carrying out the necessary reforms as she has done here to a far greater extent. It is said—in well-informed circles, too—that several very important decisions as to the respective rights of the Church and the civil power when opposed to each other will be arrived at. Immense preparations are being made everywhere for the Pope's jubilee of fifty years of priest. hood. He will, on the anniversary of that day (the 11th April), say Mass in St. Peter's, at the high altar, and will afterwards receive the deputations from all parts of Italy and the Christian world, who will each present him with offerings in money, destined to defray the expenses of the Council. A grand military review will take place before St. Peter's, and the city will he magnificently illuminated, besides other rejoicings, which are at present en ttat de projet. The Infant Don Alfonso, brother of the Duke of Madrid, a corporal in the Pontifical Zouaves, has been summoned to Paris by his brothers, in consequence of the probability of civil war in Spain, where the Carlists are preparing to take the field. Constitutional monarchy, a free Parliament, liberty of worship for foreigners at least, municipal institutions, extension of railways, mines, public works, and commerce at home and in the colonies, and the gradual abolition of slavery in Cuba, form their programme, a copy of which, privately circulated in the party, lies before me. The Duke de Montpensier's candi dature is considered the most probable here ; but a Republic will either follow it or precede it, and it is only the certainty that Serrano has received an immense sum from the Orleans family that lends credit to the probability of the Duke's success. I incline to the belief that Don Carlos will be the eventual King of Spain, chosen by the entire nation. A ridiculous scrap—a mere " memo" of the editor—on the rise in the value of property in Ireland, taken from " The Realities of Irish Life" by W. T. Trench, found its way into a lat 3 issue, where it appeared as a sort of Chinese puzzle. The facts are these :—The Barony of Farney, when granted by Queen Elizabeth to Walter Earl of Essex, in 1576, was a wild and almost un enclosed alder plain, consisting chiefly of coarse pasturage, interspersed with low alder scrub. In 1606 the Lord Deputy, the Lord Chambarlain, and the Chief Justice, when passing through this district to hold a Commission of Assize in the north, had to be guarded by six or seven score of foot and two or three score of horse, which was considered an improvement on former times when a thousand men was the smallest escort. Tho lease of the whole Barony was granted to Ivar MacMahon at a yearly rent of £250, pay able in Dublin, a proviso necessary to secure any payment at all. In 1618 the rental was £1,500; in 1638, £2,022, tenants 38 ; in 1692 (church lands excepted), £2,627 ; in 1829, £4,000 ; in 1843, before the famine, the population amounted to 44,107. The extent of land was 67,333 acres: the valuation, including church lands, was about £46,395 p e r annum. Th e increase appears greater than it really is, for the £250 31acMahon paid in 1606 was intrinsically worth five times the money of the present day, but still enough remains to show a progress not unlike that going on in America or in a British colony. The Woman Suffrage movement continues to make way under the active measures of the ladies who have interested themselves in it. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Miss Susan B. Anthony lectured at Mercan tile Hall, St. Louis on Monday, the 15th Feb., under the auspices of theiWoman's Suffrage Association of Missouri, to a large audience. Miss Anthony had started for Lea venworth, and Mrs. Stanton was to address the Illinoi s Legislature at Springfield on the 19th Feb. A new patented cattle car has arrived in Provi dence from Albany. It hits made one prolious trip from Chicago to Boston. It is 40 feet long, divided into 14 stalls, each 34 inches wide, intended for one head of cattle each. They thus have room to lie down at pleasure. Each stall is provided with a trough to feed and water the animal on the way. Under the centre of the car is a largo box for carrying feed. The inventor, James H. Aldrich of Worcester, Massachusetts, has two patents, both ob tained in 1867. Senator elect Pratt, to whom rumour had as signed the height of 7 feet, and weight above 4001b5., hes at length settled the question.

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 cant. ; or, if the profit shown of £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from vanous 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 £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 ofHceslast absorbed by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in cluding income tax, is at the rate of little more than 5} per cent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : Dn. LIABILITIES.
