JORTON'S CAMOMILE PILLS are confi dently recommended as a simple but certain Remedy for Indigestion, which is the cause of nearly all the diseases to which we are subject, being a medicine so uniformly grateful and beneficial that it is with justice tailed the " Natural Strengthener of the Human Stomach.' " Norton's Pills" act as a powerful. tonic and gentle ape rient; are mild in their operation, safe under any cir cumstances, and thousands of persons can now boar testi mony to the benefits to be derived from their use, as they have been a never-failing Family Friend for upwards of 20 years. --- Sold in bottles at is. 1/3., 2s. 9d., and lls. each, in every town in the kingdom. CAUTION. Bo sure to ask for " NORTON'S PILLS," and do not be persuaded to purchase any of the various imitations which have sprung up in consequence of the success of ' Norton's Camomile Pills." 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. ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CIIALLENGEABLM, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgate-bill, London, E C. The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob jection not unfrequently urged by persons invited to a - 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 - ontnlgato the present Tables, and to issue Assurances under them 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 bseoms forfeited. To this c 7 ass of the public the system now introduced will espe cbtlls 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. 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, mid 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. . . In addition to the foregoing statement of advantages, the number of premiums is strictly defined. The Ingest term provided for is twenty-fire years, and the shortest five years, as shown by tho 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 an Pnl nabinleu : n e m ie e s. and o PRUDENTIAL fitxe2bI tfinoso ASSURANCE the year ar largest t CO a position 3,lm amount i A n Nt of rs nuepos sessesnw- business of any office in the Kingdom.

General GRANT'S Cabinet may be known in Eng- • land before we again go to press, and if so we de sire to point out to our English readers the grave import of the names they will read, when the list is flashed across the ocean. There is reason to be- _ Here that General GRANT, with the mantle of his• predecessor, will inherit no small share of his fLude - A President must either be the creature of the Radical party, or at deadly war with ir. It is not in the nature of its leaders—as is the case with all ex tremists—to concede or to conciliate. They give an ardent and zealous support in return for a plia bility which accepts the impression they desire to make, but they turn as furiously against the man ee ho dares to stand between the wind and their nobility. GRANT owes them me_hing, as they did not freely accept him (nor did he even ask them), but took him from compulsion, and in that modified way showing, hid they dared, how gladly they w ould have substituted a man of their own. Not owing them anything it is probable he will refuse to pay them anything; that is, to recognize the claims of the War-horses for places which they have sti envi ously urged. However little is known of GRANT'S political opinions this much is certain, that instal of sympathy with he has an aversion to that party, that he cares little for any political sect, his vi 3WS tending, if anything, towards Conservatism. It is also certain that he is not a plastic man ; on the contrary, he is a cool, silent, provoking person for a War-horse to deal with, and herein he differs from his obstinate predecessor, who ran into an impetuous - opposition, allowing his enemies to taunt him into indiscretion, and then, like a dog who had been tortured into biting, to punish him for his vicious propensity. It may be taken for granted that the incoming President will not permit himself to be swayed by the extreme party,which being well aware means war to the knife, that he will begin the-- anticipated fight, by casting down his defiance in the choice of his Cabinet. The intelligence from America by mail, foreshadows it, and the Cable announce ment, that the Senate Republican caucus had decided to take no action on the Tenure-of- Office Repeal Bill till next Congress meets gives %trength. to the report. The following statement appeared in the Round Table of Feb. 13 :—" It is now known that the disposition of those great bones of contention, and, in the matter of their distribu tion, those unerring indices of policy, the Cabinet offices, the foreign missions, and the three great Government positions at the metropolis, will be such as to constitute a gauntlet of defiance thrown down at the feet of the Radical faction. It is known that the Treasury has been offered to Mr. A. T. STEWART—and that he has declined it. The State Department has been offered to Mr. CIIARLES FRANCIS ADAMS—and he has taken the proposal into serious consideration. Should he refuse, Mr. MOTLEY is the next choice. The War Department —and this is very significant—has been tendered to General M'CLELLAN, and has so far neither been accepted nor declined. Ex-Governor Fist' has the option of the portfolio in Vie latter case. The Navy Department, having been gratefully declined by Admiral FARRAGUT, has been offered to Admiral PORTER, who is pretty sere to aecept it. Strong efforts have been made to induce the appointment of Mr. E. B. WASIIBURNE as Aliiiister to France, but they are slmnost certain to fail. It is pretty well decided that Mr. M. H. GRINNELL is t) be Collector .If New York, and that Mr. C. A. DANA will be either Surveyor or Navy Agent. The last-named gentleman is almost as popular withDemocratsaswith R?pubicans, and his appointment and subsequent career—able and upright man that he is—will go far to efface the stain left on New York journalism by the conduct, in the latter office, of a former in cumbent. Other names might be mentioned in connection with important posts still more sharply indicative of Radical discomfiture, and the only sop to Cerberns seems to consist iu the selection of Mr. GItEELEY as Minister to England —a step for which there are exceptional reasons, and which is now said to be finally determined upon. Mr. JOHN W. FORNEY has been spoken of for Mr. GREELEY'S long supposed future niche—the Post-olliee ; but Mr. FORNEY'S sinister connection with letters in former days would meterially damage his chances, even if his extreme Rsdica!istn di I not." Gen. M'CLEL LAN, as War Minister, will give a great shock to the Radicals, and raise a storm of indignation, not so much from opposition to that distinguished offi cer, as being indicative of GRANT'S intention to work the State machine without War-horse aid. It is asserted by the wire-pullers that GRANT is a simple soldier, who cannot be expected to select the right men without their guiding aid, and his ob stinacy in declining it has clused great chagrin, anxiety, and fear. Any name showing a Conservative tendency may be taken as strong proof that GRANT has made up his mind for war,from which we fear there is no escape if it be his settled determination to be an independent President, and he will begin the battle with the weapon used to coerce ANDREW JOHNSON in the hands of his foe. It may be that men like BUTLER may turn over a new leaf ; but these who saw him with his sleeves tucked up on the floor of the House bullying Vice-President WADE have little anticipation of such a transfor mation, and GRANT had better look out. THE SUTHERLAND GOLD DIGGINGS.—Thp weathel . was very favourable for the gold diggers last week, and between the burns of Seisgill, Kildonan, and Torish there are fully 200 people daily at work. Professional diggers now muster pretty strongly, and on their visits to Helmsdale report that their success runs from ss. to 12s. a day. Great numbers do not make anything like this. Putting the good and the bad together, we should say that the daily earnings will average from 2s. 6d. to 3s. a day. From Brora our correspondent writes—" Last week has added but sparingly to the earnings of the diggers at Smeoral, the quantity of the precious metal found being small, and no nuggets having been met with to stimulate to fresh activity. Still the search is being persistently prosecuted. On Saturday about fifty men were engaged at the diggings, with the most of whom we have seen more or lees of the precious metal preserved is vials and tin boxes ; but there appears to be no proper datum upon which to base an estimate of the value of the gold found, some of it being appropriated for various articles of jewellery, and some not yet brought to market. The diggers are now under the surveillance of a man employed by the Duke of Sutherland to prevent the molestation of any of the ground beyond the limits of the burn, but as far as we are aware, he has not yet had to interfere with the men."—Northern , Ensign. DEATH OF A SON-Dr-LAW OF THE POET BURNS. —This week one c.f the very few links that connect the great poet with the present generation was severed. Mr. John Thomson,the husband of the sole surviving daughter of Burns, died on Monday at Crossmyloof, and was in terred on Wednesday in the churchyard of his native town of Pollokshaws. He was brought up at the loom, but about the beginning of this century was a sergeant in the Stirlingshire Militia, and his colonel, by whom he • was much respected, often spoke of him as the handsomest man in the regiment. While at Dum fries he met Elizabeth, daughter of Burns, whom he married while she was not q uite out of her teens ; and on leaning Dannumscfrriipests a he nd was presented by Jean Armour with many relics of the past. Thomson was not a man of great physical strength, but had a •, onl y l'he he fact s h u o shunned his end vigorous intellect • and a g reat fund of g enuin e humour, and in his day p roduced some g ood verses. For manly independance of c haracter he was such a man as Burns -a some wou preferment,ldhavebeenp b ro u u t d w O h f il aS e haesoinia-a strengt h inlw. marriage connection might possibly have procured hi m taking advantage of such relationship, and was proud to bring up his family by his own industry. The sentiment, "The Lord be thanked I can plough," appl ied in his case most emphatically. On the 4th -of May last a party of friends and relatives met the old couple to congratulate them on the 60th anniversary of a life. He leaves, besides his ve nerable wid o w, mosthappy married two sons antS four daughters, about 30 grandchildren, and several great grandchildren.—Glasooto Ci'i.Tcit. .
