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 ITnchallengeable. For the reason referred to, many persons hesitate or decline to assure on the ground that, i n; ne 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 oven 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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, 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. 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 amo u nt th e y may b e ca ll e d upon to advance so as to maintain the full benefit of the Assurances—a matter of groat 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 Absoluto Security Policies. The RUDER TIAL 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.

The premises now occupied are crowded and inconvenient, causing additional expense from that circumstance. It is impossible even to purchase on whole sale terms many articles of daily consumption from want of room for stowage. every inch of available space being occupied.

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 largo 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 8,000 and 4,000 weekly. The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent, as the promises of this hospital are capable of containing several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds to maintain them.

The pro cessien entered the cloisters at the door between the chapter house and the south transept,. gassing along the north side of the cloisters into the close, and entering the cathedral by the great western porch. The cathedral clergy having assembled in the vestry a quarter of an hour earlier, and the diocesan clergy in the chapter-house, the latter ranged themselves in order on the north side of the cloisters. The mayor and corpora tion assembled near the entrance to the Chancellor's Court on the west side of the cloisters, and placed them selves at the head of the procession as it moved towards the cathedral. The Dean and Chapter, the prebendaries, and other cathedral clergy, met the body at the entrance to the nave. The choral service then commenced, and, the procession having entered the choir, the prebendaries and mayor and corporation took their seats in the stalls, the clergy occupying the space to the east of the pulpit. The remaining seats in the choir were reserved for the relatives and friends in the procession. Upon the procession entering the cathedral, "I am the Resurrection and the Life," &c., &c., was sung ; the choir then chanted Psalm xxxix. and Psalm xc. After the Lesson the anthem was sung, "Happy and blest are they who have endured: for though the body dies, the soul shall live for ever" (Men delssohn). As the procession was leaving the• choir, a voluntary was played on the organ, and at the grave was sung, "Man that is born of a woman," &c., &c., and "I heard a voice from heaven," &c., &c. At the conclusion of the service the Hymn 98, Salisbury Hymn Book, "The foe behind, the deep before," &c., was sung to the tune Troyte. On the conclusion of the service the procession returned in the same order through the south transept to the cloisters, and proceeded thence to the place of burial. The coffin bore the inscrip. tion:—" Gualterus Kerr Hamilton, S.T.P. Episcopus Sarisburiensis. Obiit die 1 Aug., 1869. }Et. GO. Requiescat in pace." Over this inscription was a mitre of the fourteenth century. THE NEW BISHOP OF SALISBURY. The vacant see of Salisbury is to be given to Dr. Moberley. The new bishop was born about the year 1803, and educated at Winchester and Balliol College, Oxford. At the University he graduated B.A. in 1825, taking first class honours in the school of Literce Humaraores. Subsequently he became Fellow and Tutor of Balliol College, as well as Public Examiner and Select Preacher. To his other academical honours he added the degree of D.C. L. In 1835 Dr. (the Rev. George) Moberley was appointed to the heac'•mastership of Winchester School, which post he retained for above thirty years. He at present holds a canonry of Chester, to which he was presented by the Bishop of that see, and the living of Brightstone, Isle of Wight, which be received from the Bishop of Winchester. The new bishop has been the author of several works, including " An Examination of Mr. Newman's Theory of Develop. ment," " Sermons Preached at 'Winchester College," " The Sayings of the Great Forty Days," as well as a Reply to the famous "Essays and Reviews," published in 1801. Dr. Moberly is a High Churchman. THE BISHOP OF DUNEDIN RETURNED. The Daily News has an article upon Bishop Jenner. A unique ecclesiastical personage has, it says, arrived in England within these few days —an English bishop who has never had a see. Dr. Jenner was consecrated by the late Archbishop of Canterbury to be Bishop of Dunedin in New Zealand three years ago with all due ecclesiastical solemnity, but, as now appears, upon a misunderstanding. Dr. Selwyn, formerly Bishop of New Zealand, and now of Lichfield, believed he had full and sufficient autho rity to designate the first Bishop of Dunedin, and upon it he acted. The people of the proposed diocese did not, however, approve of the choice, nor yet consider that they were so bound by what had taken place as to be obliged to receive a bishop of whom they disapproved. After some delays Dr. Jenner went out to New Zealand, but failed to gain the confidence of the people, and was not admitted to his office. His return has, we believe, been determined by an adverse vote of the local synod. He, however, maintains that that decision cannot defeat his claim, and calls upon his accusers to prove what he has done, taught, or said which is :ontrary to the laws of the Church. This appears a singular argument to be addressed to a body of Christians. Of course the real reason why the people )f Dunedin will not have Dr. Jenner is, that they lack :onfidence in him. Suppose that instead of the cure of souls the Doctor undertook the cure of bodies. It is very likely that most people to whom he tended his services would, albeit wholly unskilled in medicine, claim the ase of their own judgment as to whether they should employ him or some other practitioner in whom ;hey put more faith. He would not think, how ever, of challenging them to allege what medical :anon he had violated, but would go quietly on his way, :)uilding up a reputation which would some day triumph )ver all obstacles. Under the system lately abrogated, Dr. Jenner would have been nominated by the Colonial Ddice, and have gone out with a royal patent which would cave overridden both synodal and private objections, and given him a see to hold against all corners.

THE WEXFORD CHURCHMEN ON THE POSITION. --In pursuance of a requisition signed by some of the 9arishioners of Wexford, and calling upon the church wardens to convene a meeting to consider the present position and prospects of the Irish Church, some friends f the Church have met together in the lecture-rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association. The following resolutions were passed :—" That, in the opinion of this meeting, the standing committee of the Church Conference should now be dissolved, the measure having become law which that conference was meant to oppose."—" That the laity should be largely represented in the formation of a Church ;governing body."—" That it appears desirable that a body of lay representatives should be appointed to confer with the clergy on the subject of commutation and other breiness."—" That the present opportunity should be utbraced to effect all desirable changes in the Chnrcll sei . vices and discipline."—" That, whilst feeling ourselves wronged by the Irish Church Bill, we be not discouraged, but that, confident in the superiority which truth ever bestows upon a cause, we pledge our selves to united action in our efforts to aid in maintaining Scriptural Christianity in Ireland." THE METROPOLITAN UNDERGROUND RAILWAY. The arithmeticians of the Underground Railway—which Cockneys vulgarly call " The Sewer," but which in the eyes of strangers is as great a wonder as the Thames Tunnel was to the last generation—have been reckoning up the amount of service which the company perform for the public. They find that in the half-year ending on the 30th of last June they ca-riedmorc than twenty million —or, to be precise, 20,087,809 passengers. Long before num bers attain this magnitude they cease to convey any definite idea or conception to the mind. Let us say then that the passengers who used the Metropolitan, the Metropolitan District, the St. John's-wood, and the Hammersmith and City lines during that half-year exceeded in number the whole population of England and Wales as it was in 1860. What, perhaps, is yet more remarkable, is that the diver sion of so enormous a traffic has made no sensible diffe rence in the appearance of the streets, which seem to be as crowded as ever during the busy hours of the day. The extension of the Metropolitan District Railwayto Cannon• street, long delayed, is now likely to be seriously taken hi hand and prosecuted with vigour. Its completion will give London the completest system of internal communication enjoyed by APY CAPital W_guropg,_ . _
