The whole assets, prod uc ti ve an d unproductive , may there fore be considered as having improved at the rate of rather more than 4 per cent. ; or , if the profit show n of £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in cluded, at upwards of £5 12s. per cent.

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 offices last absorbed by the company.

ABSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, UN FORFEITABLE, 'UNCONDITIONAL, and UN CHALLENGEABLE, issued by the PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62, Ludgato-bill, London, E.O. 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 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 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 pi emium 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 Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance.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, ao 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 aro 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 loniest term provided for is twenty-live years, and the shortest fivo years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this class as security, may al ways 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 whore policies are held as collateral security. It is only necessa►y to add that, as a consequence of tho policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengenble on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of £2115,000 a year Its position is un questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new business of any office in the Kingdom.

The Lone CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. MARRIED WOMEN'S PROPERTY BILL. Lord PENZANCE moved the second reading of this bill, the object of which was to g ive increased protection to property of women, an amendment of the law affecting that object being much required. Ile knew that some in creased protection to the earnings of a wife were urgently necessary, as in the cases in which the wives' earnings were considerable, the husbands, when intemperate, reck less, or lazy, invariably appropriated the money which he bad not helped to earn, and spentit in rioting and drunken ness. The present law only gave adequate protection to married women where they were deserted, and it had worked well to a great extent, but it was absolutely necessary to make some provision in cases where the earnings were seized without desertion taking place. It had now become known that the husband could seize the wife's earnings when desertion could not be proved, so tint the dissolute and idle man took particular good care not to put hirn , :elf within the reach of the law by deserting his wife. The bill ho had the hunotir to submit to their lordship i for approval proposed to give the power to mar ried women of bolding and disposing of their own property, to secure to married witrnen the property they at present possessed, to sue an-I be sued, and at death that the wife's estate should be administered cud distributed precisely the satire as that of the husband. It. might be said that these wore very important alterations in the law; but bo felt quite certain the provieions were necessary to protect suffering women from tyranny and being trodden under foot by dissolute and worthless men, if such they could be called, who disregar led all moral and social obligations. Ile regretted that the present state of the session pre vented the passing of the bill during the present year, but he hoped their lordships nptwithstandiug would read the bill a second time, because by such a proceeding it would show that an evil was acknowledged, and that a remedy for it ought to be sought for. He felt the ne cessity for the bill was urgent, that the evil complained of was neither temporary nor trivial, but widespread, fruitful of much misery. The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND said as the noble and learned lord did not propose going further with the bill than the second reading he should perserve with his motion for reading the bill a second time this day three months. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he was favourable to the principle of the bill, but as there ware details that would require alteration he wished to make that observa tion before the bill was read a second time. The Court of Chancery had the power of protecting property of married women where the property exceeded X2OO, and the court took good care to protect the interests of the mother and children. That being the case, it appeared clear that the desirability of protecting the property of married women had been acknowledged for a very long time, and as so much care was taken of married women whose property amounted to the sum he had stated, he did not see why the same protection should not be extended to her less for tunate sister, who doubtless had as much right to consi deration ann protection as the owner of untold riches. Lord CAIRNS said he also was favourable to the principle of the bill. He had, however, great objections to the bill as it at present sto ad, but the desirable course would be to have the matter examined before a select com mittee. If they were to pass the bill as it at present stood, they would create utter confusion between husband and wife, and bring about a greater change than was necessary to accomplish the safeguard and protection proposed. Lord ROMILLY also supported the principle of the bill, but was of opinion that it would require further con sideration and deliberation before it was placod upon the statute book. He hoped, however, that a modified mea sure would pass during the next session of Parliament. The bill was read a second time. A number of bills were advanced a formal stage, and their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—LAST EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at the usual hour. SUPPLY. The house then went into committee of supply, when the remaining votes for the civil service, revenue, post office, telegraph, and supplementary estimates were agreed to. FORTIFICATIONS (PROVISION FOR EXPENSES) On the motion for going into committee on this hill, Mr. TAYLOR opposed the motion, and contended that the Government wore pursuing a reckless and maim ex penditure in proceeding with the works. The present proposition was ridiculous, it was, in fact, throwing one million of good money after seven million of bad, and such a proceeding on the part of a Government which professed to beimbued with economical notions was most inexplicable. The whole of the fortifications were next to useless, and spending ilia publie ennnsor nneh a ridiculous manner was highly to be condemned. After some discussion the Speaker left the chair. On clause 1 being proposed, Capt. BEAUMCNT moved that the sum of .C 1,510 000 be reduced by the sum of .025,000, that sum representing the saving which would be effected by completing the Horse Sand and No Man's Laud Forts at Spithead wi h one tier of guns instead of two. Mr. CARDWELL defended the clause, and said it was necessary that the works should go on ai originally HENRY HARBEN, Secretary. I proposed. The house divided on the proposed amendment, when ,ere appeared— For the elausa Against it ... 73 ~ -9 Majority The clause was then agreed to, as were also the remain ing clauses of the bill. The report of the committee of supply was than re ceive?, and the sitting of the house was suspended. On resuming at 9 o'clock, on the proposition for going into Committee of Supply, Mr. NEWDEGATE moved an address for a return showing the number of deeds or instruments enrolled dur ing the last three years in the High Court of Chancery under the Act 23d and 24th Vict., o. 134, being an Act to amend the law regarding the Roman Chatholic charities, and under any subsequent Act relating to or enlarging or extending the said Act, giving the names of the trustees : the date of their execution of such deeds or instruments ; and a summary or short description, together with the number of acres, of the property to which such deeds or instruments relate. Ur. BRUCE said that he would not produce the infor mation asked for on several grounds, the chief of which was that the Master of the Rolls was of opinion that its preparation would so severely tax the time of the clerks in the Public Record Office as to lead to great inconveni ence and delay in the current business of the establish ment ; that there existed no sufficient reasons for making bequests (for Roman Catholic uses) the subject of special inquiry ; that any return, if made, would not include be quests of money ; and, in fine, that to grant it would be to cast a slur on Roman Catholics. The motion was supported by Mr. Henley, Mr. G. Gre gory, Mr. Aytonn, Lord John Manners, and Mr.ld‘Laren 1 and opposed by Mr. Sherlock and Mr. Hinds Palmer, and upon a division negatived by 58 to 50 votes. A long conversation arose on the memorials from seve ral Chambers of Commerce, presented by Mr. Baines, re commending the construction of a railway from Rangoon through British Burmah to Western China ; and he asked the Under Secretary of State for India whether the sur vey authorized by the Secretary of State for India, and commenced in 1867, was ordered to be completed, or what was being done for the construction of a railway or tele graph through British Burnial to the Western Provinces of China. Mr. Sergeant SIMON having spoken in favour of a re sumption of the survey, and insisted upon the practica bility of constructing a line of railway along the indicated route. Sir S. NORTECOTE and others took part in the discus sion, which ultimately fell to the ground. lar. a BUXTON endeavoured to attract attention to a petition and other documents forwarded by the merchants and inhabitants of Bathurst, Gambia, &c., but elicited no satisfactory reply. Honourable members then went to the consideration of tho remaining orders, and they having been disposed of mainly by postponement, the house soon adjourned.
