THE GOrkirtatitt In THE TELEGRAPHS. - Kim' days have now elapsed since the eondit'onal agreements between the telegraph companies and the Post Office were concluded, and yet the Government have made no announcement of their intentions in this matter in which both public and private interests are largely involved. Mr. LowE excuses himself from making known his intentions on the ground that the arrangement with the railway companies have not yet been fullydetermined. The principle upon which the interests of these companies will be taken has, however, been settled, and the working out• of the details cannot affect the total in any appreciable degree. The millions have been decided, and the points left open do not involve more than a few thousands. At this late period of the session, and with all the material facts before them, it is impossible to suppose that the Government have not decided upon the course they will adopt, and yet they continue to subject the public, and all those imme diately interested in the question, to the loss and incon venience arising from uncertainty. A few days since a deputation of newspaper proprietors waited on Mr. LOWE, and pointed out to him how seriously their interests were affected by the question, and that the present state of uncertainty was one which subjected them to much inconvenience. They were curtly told that " the Government would communicate their intentions to Parliament, and not to the deputation. There would be noharth in this if theinformation was com municated to Parliament, as in that case all parties would know what to prepare for ; but Parliament is left in the dark as well as the deputation. While this information, is withheld the shares of the • various companies are made the subject of active speculation on the Stock Exchange, and those who are•acquainted with the secrets of the Government have ample opportu nities of making use of their knowledge at the expense of the bond fide shareholders. This opportunity, or tempta tion, ought not to be afforded, and the _Government are incurring a serious responsibility by withholding the an nouncement of their intentions. The only way to prevent questions involving large pecuniary interests from being used for private purposes is to give the public the benefit of any information at the earliest possible moment. In this case the opposite policy seems to be adopted, and the public are to be left in the dark as long as possible —s course highly convenient to certain persons, but seriously injurious to the public interests.—Western Morning Nene. 4CI STAMPICD 51.

This edition of the policy adopted by General Grant accords with that already given in our American telegrams, Mr. Motley is not instructed to propose any settlement of claims, but to secure the temporary postponement of the question in the hope that a fter a little time further negotiations will be invited by the British Government. lie is to assure the English Ministry that President Grant's Govern ment desires the solution of the dispute on. terms honourable to both rations ; but he is to make no formal demand or propositions. lie is also instructed to state that the Neutrality Procla mation is not in itself a cause for demanding compensa- Con, or a separate ground of complaint, La that, taken with subsequent acts, it was unfriendly, as sheaving a feeling of hostility to America during the late war, and resulting in losses requiring reparation. Such reparation as this must, however, be ex ceedingly difficult to estimate ; and, indeed, this. part of the instructions is so indefinite that in all probability it signifies the abandonment of the demands founded on the recognition of belligerency. It looks as if put in for appearance' sake. It is an odd sign of the times that such an important piece of diplomacy should have been made public with the sanction of the American Government. Nobody, however, can complain of these instructions as being extravagant. It is clear that they differ wholly from Mr. Sumner's programme. _ Lcetnres V., VI.

We quote from the Gazette du Midi, July 25th (Cure • No. 18.413):—"Rome, July 21st, 1866. —The health of the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all ether remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du arry's Revalenta Arabica Food, of which he consumes a lateful at every meal.

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 Life Policies, as they can at any time learn, by mere inspection, the exact value, either immediate or re version a ry, 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-fire years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, tankers, credi tors, and others bolding policies of this alas as security, may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to advance so as to mair.tain the full benefit of the Assurnr.: - ..es—a matter of great importance where policies are held as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as a consequenen of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unclialleugeable on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute S:eirrity 1' lieieg.

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.£l9,ooo. 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 : Dlt.

The leading commercial men of New York are oceu. pying themselves, int with warlike projects or impracti- cable demands upon England, but with schemes for the* promotion of trade between their own country and Canada. The New York Chamber of Commerce has passed reso lutions, exhorting the President to renew negotiations with the British Government, and to secure an arrangement for reciprocal trade with Canada, in cluding freedom of the River St. Lawrence and the freedom of the coast fisheries of British North America. Some of -the speeches mule on this -occasion chew how rapidly liberal ideas of trade policy are making way in the States. General Walbridge said that, while lie would .welcome the people of Canada into the Union, he did not believe it good policy to attempt to coerce Canada by commercial restrictions into a union with the. United States. By a renewal of reciprocity, he added, the United States would become the merchants of 4,000,000 people, whom the present policy drives away. THE INSURRECTION IN CUBS. The correspondent of the Daily 2% 7 (l , s—formerly one of the most profound disbelievers in the Cuban insurrection —now expresses the opinion that affairs in Cuba are going badly for the Spaniards. The insurrection has at least attained such respectable proportion* as to afford work lot the American filibusters. " The; insurgents have un doubtedly succeeded in doing what they set themselves to do at the outset, namely, keep up the semblance of a rebellion in the island long enough to enable them to excite sympathy and procure assistance from the United States. Considerable sums of money have been raised here for them, and large quantities of supplies purchased and for warded to the island. Moreover, parties of filibusters have undoubtedly reached Cuba, headed by, and indeed largely composed of, old soldiers both of the Federal and Confederate armies." It is now certain that Genera; Jordan, at the head of a privateer force, has succeeded in landing at Nipc Bay, and has joined the insurgents after a battle of some magnitude. Henceforth," says the correspondent of the Daily News, " the fighting will be done by Americans." He believeithat the delays, dissen sions, and excesses of the past three mouths have done irreparable injury to the Spanish cause. THE INDIAN WAR. The constant wars with the few Indian tribes now remain ing on the soil of the United States, and the apparent impos sibility of keeping them in order for any length of time, will appear unintelligible unless regard be bad to the immense size of the dominion now ruled by President Grant. The territory appropriated solely to the Indians is as large as England and Wales, and beyond its limits are immense plains, almost unin habited, over which the aboriginal tribes have free range. Hence the impunity with which the most frightful outrages are committed. Hostilities have again broken out, and the Indians have apparently carte blanche. They have wrecked a train on the Pacific Railway. They have murdered twenty people in Western Kansas. At another settlement four men were killed, and eight women and children carried into captivity. In South-Western Kansas an unprotected settlement was attacked, and thirteen persons killed in the most treacherous manner. The bodies of these unfortunate settlers were dreadfully muti lated ; their tongues and hearts were cut out, their ears cut off, the calves of their legs slit, and telegraph wires thrust through their bodies. Of course troops are employed, but the difficulty is not to beat the Indians, but to catch thew. THE SAN JUAN BOUNDARY. The idea of deciding by arbitration the difficulty respecting the boundary line between the United States and British North America at the island of San Juan was proposed by the British Government as far back as 1860. A despatch from Earl (then Lord John) Russell to Lord Lyons, dated November 22nd, 1860, has just been published. Lord John makes a forma: proposal that the boundary question should be submitted to the arbitration of some sovereign —the King of Holland, the King of Sweden, or the President of the Swiss Repub lic. Our Foreign Minister likewise suggested that the arbiter should have full power to finally settle the difficulty. Science is constantly adapting new discoveries to promote domestic comfort. The primeval needle of bone or thorn was long since displaced by the beautiful lance-like needle of steel, and that instru ment is, in turn, rapidly yielding to one infinitely superior under feminine direction. As the 7 Imes recently declared, in o ne of its leaders, the Sewing Machine is inevitable, and, what is more, it will ultimately prove a great advantage to possess a Sewing Machine, and to know how to use it is to possess a mine of wealth. This truth is LOW being universally ad mitted, and the question is no longer whether wo shall purchase a sewing machine, but which of these indispensable liouscho!d Drticles is best adapted to family use. Ilaving examined most of the machines invented, many of which are admir able, our prefereuce has fallen to those of Grover and Baker as capable of performing more varied operations than any other, as being more simply in use ; as making the firmest and most elastic stitch ; as remaininglongest in order ; and as being readily converted into an elegant piece of furnitur.
