Two parties tried it, and were either drowned in the rushing water, or were destroyed by Indians, deep snows, or lack of game. Major Powell, trusting in his experience, long suc cess, and intelligence, turned a deaf ear to every warning voice, and pressed on. One man only was placed on shore to report in case of failure, and then, bracing themselves up, these brave men en• tered Hell's Gate, and were never heard of more. The editor of the Chicago Tribune telegraphed to Mrs. Powell, the wife of the gallant leader of the Colorado expedition, asking whether the John Sum ner, who gives the above particulars, belonged to the party, and, in reply, she said there was a man named John Sumner, a most reliable person, bro ther-in-law to William Byers, editor of the Denver News, but she wholly discredits the story told by William Riley, as coming from the mouth of John Sumner. She says that one who professed to forget the names of his comrades, with whom be had been two years, tells an improbable story. The report does not rest, however, on this foundation only, as the following account will show, though, we may add, neither of the stories are fully credited, and both are completely at variance with regard to dates : 2s. 6d.

This course will consist of Nine Lectures : Powvll, has reached his home in La Salle, Illinois, and gives such an account of the loss of the party as to leave no doubt of its destruction. It seems that on the Bth of May last the major, with 20 men, attempted to cross thl Colorado river in a small boat, about 20 rods above its rapids, and about 50 miles from the canyon, for the pur pose of exploring the Big Black River, which empties int the Colorado at that point. When about 30 yards rom the shore, gliding along on the apparently smooth water, the boat was seen to enter a vortex, which at once en gulfed it, and not one of the party, which left the shore a few moments before gaily cheering, was ever fren after wards. Itistion, who hal been left at the point of embar kation, saw the boat go down. He had been left in charge of the teams and baggage belonging to the party, and was to have gone below the rapids to meet the party in two A BSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN- E"- FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CIIALLENGEABLE, 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 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 p'omulgato the present Tables, and to issue Assurances under them which shall bo absolutely Uuforfeitable, 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 ERMO 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 pentium 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 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 o❑ 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 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. ursuing Irunk en Bridg et a blob I bort de hou se Duna vioUnd' SCIENTIFIC' AND ORNAMENTAL PRESENTS.

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 £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.

September 1868. 3 3 0 111 6 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, end others holding policies of this class as security, may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to advance so as to yr, , ,int.tn the cult of th e 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 business of any office in the Kingdom. SPECIAL AGENTS WANTED. HENRY HARDEN, Secretary. A.D. 1720.

Patron—Her Most Gracious MAJESTY the QUEEN. Vice-Patron— _ His Royal Highness the Prince of WALES, K.G. _ President—His Grace the Duke of BUCCLECII, B.G. This Hospital, founded iu the year 1828, the first to establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor, without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly dependent '.'or. support on voluntary contributions and legacies. It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, the average number of attendance of the destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly. The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent, as the premises of this hospital are capable of containing several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds to maintain them. Contrib..:.tions are received by their bankers, Messrs. Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abehurch-lane ; also by Messrs. Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co.; Glyn and Co.; Hordes and no.; Ransom and Co. ; Presectt, Grote, and Co.; Smith, limpid, and Co.; Barclay and Co.; Williams, Deacon, and Co.; Nisbet and 00.03erners-street ; 'ankat the Hospital from 10 till 5. The Harvard crew, boat, and all, arrived at Liverpool on Tuesday, and put up at the Washing ton Hotel. Besides Messrs. Loring, captain, of the Harvard four, Simmons,stroke,Bass, Rice, and Burn ham, coxswain. Mr. W. lilaikie has come to superin tenu arrangements ; Mr. Lyman is a Mr. Elliott sees to the boats; and there are also three servants. Mr. II ty, the other substitute, will follow immediately after the race on Lake Quinsiga mund. The party arrived on Wednesday at the " Star and Garter," whence they have moved to a private house adjoining Symond's boat-house. The boat has just been varnished ; it is described as long for a four-oar, resembling in shape a Jewitt mould, displacing the water about mid-chips, made of lighter wood than English boats, and a fine speci men of workmanship. On weighing the men they are found to be all over twelve stone; one nearly thirteen ; the average being twelve-and-a-half ; the discrepancy in the might sent over from America may be attributed to the sea voyage and change of climate and diet. There was no demonstration, and, as yet, they have not been intruded on, as they cer tainly will be when the Cockney is aroused, and for this they must prepare themselves. The match has been arranged, it is said, to be rowed over the Oxford and Cambridge Course between the 15th and 31st August. On the morning of the 9th inst. the Harvard crew tried the boat built for them by Alderman Elliott, sitting in the order in which they are to row against Oxford. At the start there is said to have been a little awkwardness, but after 200 yards the men got fairly into play, and drove their boat along at a rate which astonished the specta tors, and the trial satisfied many of the amateur boatmen present that Harvard would win. They had another boat which they had brought with them from Boston, built by Blackie, of Charleston, and it was not -certain whether they would take both boats with them to England. So far the Harvard crew have done well, winning the four-oared race in the rowing regatta at Boston on the sth inst., three miles in 22 minutes 27f seconds, the George Rhoars coming in in 23.17 k, and the other compe titors dropping into the rear. We hope that the Harvard men will not permit themselves to indulge in excellent collations and enjoyable evenings as they did at the Nassau Club before leaving New York. No doubt people desire to be civil, and dinners and balls are the usual means of showing civility ; but the crew must abstain till after tl e race, taking care what they eat and drink, and that their hours are severely regular. They will not row the race except on a calm day, therein we consider them to be right, for wind or any disturbing cause tells harder against them than the Oxonians, who know the course well. Of the latter we learn that— " After a week's preliminary trials, five and a coxswain from whom the competitors against the Americans will be finally chosen, have got into regular training. The Rev. Dr. Hornby, Head Master of Eton, has placed his fishing villa—well known to old Etonians as Black Pots—at their disposal. The villa is situated on the Bucks shore of the Thames, and contiguous to the training course, which is in that part of the river that runs through the private por tion of the Windsor Homo Park, between the Victoria bridge at Datchet and the Albert-bridge at Old Windsor. The gentlemen in training are tho following :—Mr. F. Willem, 1; Mr. A. C. Yarborough, 2 ; Mr. J. C. Tinny (President of the Oxford University Boat Club), 3 ; Mr. S. D. Darbishire, 4 ; Mr. W. S. Woodhouse, 5 ; Mr. J. 11. Hall, coxswain. Most of the crew are old Etonians, and the four finally selected, judging from their admirable style of rowing at the present time, will doubless prove them selves creditable representatives of the Oxford University and worthy competitors of the Americans who have ha zarded the challenge in the forthcoming contest." The Oxonians continue at Black Pots, which is a mile below Windsor, but the water is getting weedy in this boiling weather, which brings out long trailing sedges, and this may necessitate a move. The course and its keeping is in the hands of the Thames Conservancy, and it is proposed to buoy the river, keeping row boats outside, and , alto ;ether prohibiting stmaners. Mr. Geo. W. Child; of the Philadelphia Ledger, took 1,500 men, women, and children to AtlaLtic City, July 5 ; where they spent the day at the new Excur sion House in festivities and bathing. The party in cluded the employ4s and their famili s, all the ag.'nts of the Ledger in Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, and 80 men connected with the paper mill at Elkton. Md. The cost of the whole affair, which is borne by Mr. Childs, is estimated at 810,000.
