ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLE, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, G 2, 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 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 th em which shall be absolutely Unforfeitable, 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 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance. SCIENTIFIO AND ORNAMENTAL PRESENTS.

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 loss 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.

Poultry' London, E.C. September 1868. 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 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. fn addition to the foregoing statement of advantages, the number of premiums is strictly defined. The longest term providod 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 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 unchallengeablo on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. The PRUDENTIAL A SSUR AN CE.

After the Cabinet Council on Saturday, at which all fifteen Cabinet Ministers were present, Mr. Gladstone went down to Windsor. and had an interview with the Queen. It is announced this morning that her Majesty goes to Osborne to-nor- It seems strange that the Sovereign should increase the distance between herself and the capital at such a time as this, but, though strange, it is not unprecedented, and it is expressly stated that the order for the departure of the Court was not given until after the interview with Mr. Gladstone. The inference is that there is no prospect of a Ministerial crisis, even of that temporary and formal character which would consist of Mr. Gladstone resigning, Mr. Disraeli being sent for and announcing his inability to form a Ministry, and Mr. Gladstone being recalled, a programme which has been -talked of iu some quarters. Some persons think that the Premier has obtained the consent of the Queen to make a number of new peers sufficient to carry the bill at once. If that be the case, their lordships will doubtless be brought acquainted with the fact, and it may have a material influence upon their decision, as a similar fact bad upon their deliberations thirty-seven years ago. At the same time I am bound to add that the Conservative peers wholly disbelieve in any such intention, for, say they, the Whig peers will not endure being swamped in this way. Up to yesterday it was confidently stated in Conserva tive circles that the Peers would not give way. Not only were the old Tory party, who still look up to Lord Derby, for resistance, but so too were the neo-Conservative party, of whom the Marquis of Salisburyis the leader. Both he and Earl Stanhope repudiated the idea of submission. They could not yield without stultifying the House to wh;ch they belonged. Better be disestablished at once than undergo the humiliation of becoming mere registrars of the acts of the Commons, &c., &c. Among the advocates of "No Surrender" was the Archbishop of Canterbury. Yesterday (Sunday) he set off for Hatfield, in order to have an interview with the Marquis of Salisbury. It is supposed that the course which the spiritual and the temporal peer agreed to take will be adopted by the general meeting of the Conservative peers which is to be held at the Duke of Marlborough's to-morrow, always barring the effect which accidents, such as the announce. ment of a wholesale creation of peers, may have upon their final resolve. Meanwhile, Mr. Glyn has issued a circular to the supporters of the Government in the Lower House, requesting them to be in attendance on Wednesday, in order to discuss, if necessary, any fresh amendments that the Lords may make. It is, of course, a very unusua thing for a Government measure to be discussed at a Wednesday sitting. But it is so important that the present crisis should be terminated as quickly as possible that a departure from ordinary routine may well be pardoned. This morning I find the same firm conviction ex pressed that the Lords will insist upon their amend ments. They complain of the arrogance of the Government, and say that if only a little more conciliation were shewn all might be well. But up to the present moment it is fully believed that the Lords will re-alter the preamble by a large majority, and also insist upon the postponement of the appropriation of the surplus. If this resolution is maintained to-morrow, I do not see what is to prevent a conflict between the two Houses. Is the Upper House prepared to carry it through, and to throw out the bill if presented a second time? This is the question which I understand the Bishop of Gloucester will put to the peers at the Duke of Marlborough's to morrow. Manifestly it would be absurd to resist now in order to submit Three or four months hence. How desirable it is that the crisis should be over may be gathered from the style of speeches which are being made at the:publie meetings now being held all over the kingdom. The hostility to the Lords was pretty strongly manifested at Birmingham on Saturday ; but the language used there was milk and honeycompared with the speeches at Black heath. It was not so much the conduct of the Lords as their existence that was denounced, and a resolution was passed expressing "the absurdity of an hereditary Legis lature." Now only extreme Radicals can desire to see this sort of talk become general. But, unfortunately, we shall have to endure it throughout the autumn, unless the Irish Church question is settled at once. A good deal of dissatisfaction is expressed even in Con servative circles at the Earl of Carnarvon's proposal to meet the motion for the second reading of the University Tests Bill by moving the previous question. This is held to be an unsatisfactory and unworthy way of dealing with a question of great importance. Some of the Conservative peers are very anxious to offer a compromise by adopting Mr. Beresford Hope's proposal, and throwing open the universities to Dissenters, but keeping the colleges intact. As this plan would enable Churchmen to retain nearly all the emoluments, it is scarcely likely to satisfy the Liberals and the Nonconformists. The Prince of Wales has a busy week before him. Some chagrin has been caused to a leading Manchester man of enormous wealth, who hoped to have the honour of receiving the Prince tt his mansion. He had decorated and refurnished it at a great expense, and had arranged with Mr. Agnew, the well-known picture dealer, to fill a picture gallery with £25,000 worth of the finest pictures for a week, for which Mr. Agnew was to receive a hand some payment. But the Prince has declined. Subse quently it was stated that Prince Teck would take his place; but even this is now said to be extremely un certain. We have a member of the Russian Imperial Family now in London, the Grand Duchess Maria, sister of the Emperor, and widow of the late Duke of Leuchtenberg. Her Imperial Highness, I need scarcelyadd, has been sent to Claridge's Hotel. She dined on Saturday with the Prince of Wales, at Marlborough House, and yesterday she attended the Russian Chapel, in Welbeck-street. Mr. Grenville Murray was so little pleased with the proceedings in the Marlborough-street Police-court on Saturday that his solicitor sent letters to the London papers requesting them not to publish a report. As only one side was heard there was some show of reason in the request, though the injustice of pub lication, if injustice there be, has to he endured by every person similarly situated. It is this consideration which no doubt influenced the London journals this morning to disregard Mr. Murray's request, and to publish the proceedings at more or less length. The report of the Morning Post extends over several columns. The charge against Lord Carington is to be heard to morrow or Wednesday. The Morning Star has a notice to-day denying the very general rumour that that paper was to be amalgamated with the Daily News. It announces that there has been a change of proprietary, and that there will be a change ir. the management. The Star has lately passed into the hands of Mr. Rawson, who stood unsuccessfully in the Liberal interest at Salford at the general election. The appointment of Mr. John Morley as editor I have already mentioned. I may add that Mr. Ellerthorpe, who was formerly sub-editor of the Eastern Morning News and then London editor of the Scotsman, has joined the editorial staff of the Star. In all probability the price of the Echo will shortly be raised to a penny. It is found that at a halfpenny a profit can be obtained only with a circulation of 250,000. The circulation of the Echo is not much more than a fourth of that figure. The Echo believes that the resignation of Viscount Courtenay has been placed in the hands of his committee, and will probably be issued in a few days. This may be true ; but I know that on Friday night Mr. Spofforth ordered an official contradiction of his lordship's resigna tion to be published. The Opera season closes at the end of this week. It has, I believe, been successful pecuniarily ; but there is a grand disturbance among the singers, and next year is likely to see us with two Operas once more. The three prime donne take their benefits on three successive nights —on Wednesday, Patti.; on Thursday, Titiens ; on Friday, Nilsson. Mr. Dion Boucicault brings out a new piece on Saturday week—" The Railroad to Ruin." I hear that Messrs. Beyfus and Padwick have come to terms about their unfortunate friend the Duke of New castle. His Grace is now at Homburg, where he is being consoled by Lord Courtenay. 7 RAINING REPORTS.
