England cannot fail to appreciate the noble senti ments which dicte , ed the letter in which the First Minister of the Crown announced to the Home Se cretary the wishes of her Majesty the QUEEN, in reference to the funeral obsecpsies of the late Duke yr WELLINGTON. Those wishes, we feel assured, will prove in every respect consonant to the wishes of the entire population. They evidence a touching recog nition on the part of the SOVEREIGN of the eminent services of the illastrioue old warrior whose memory is about to receive from the nation so splendid and almost unparalleled - a tribute of gratitude and admi ration. In every particular the communication ad dressed to the light Hon. SPENCER WALPOLE, and dated by the Earl of DERBY — CiII the 20th of Septem ber from Balmoral, is worthy of the statesman by whom it was penned, of the MONARCH whose emotions it expressed, of the people to whose generosity it is in a touching degree respondent, and of the distin guished man whose remains it is intended to honour by an interment of very unusual magnificence. Henceforth this memorable document will be en shrined in the history of the Duke of WELLINGTON as the crowning homag e o ff ere d t o a career a l rea d y rendered remarkable by so many tokens of veneration both from the country r and from the SOVEREIGN. It Will be related by the future biographers of his Grace, that VICTORIA " received with grief" the in telligence of that death in regard to which the PRIME MINISTER confidently expected that the nation would "as one m an" "sympathise with her M AJESTY." M It will be remembered , moreover, hg the anna li st how admirably sensitive herMAJESTY ha s b een in this matter, at once of the feelings of the relati ons of the deceased and of those entertained by the Pe ople at large, and by the members o f the Imperial Legisla . ture. " Although," says the Earl of DERBY, speak ing in the name of his SOVEREIGN , " although the QUEEN could not for a moment doubt that the voice of the country would be unanimous upon the subject of the honours to be paid to the memory of the greatest man of the age, her MAJESTY considered it due to the feelings of his Grace's surviving relatives that no steps should be taken, even in his honour, without their approving concurrence"—and accord ingly a communication was at once, in the first in stance, addeessed by the Noble PREMIER to the younger son of the departed for the purpose of as certaining the sentiments of his family in reference to the public tribute proposed to be offered to his " manes'-' in, behalf of his QUEEN and of his fellow countrymen. Thereupon the relatives of the late Duke having, of wholly and unconditionally in her MAJESTY'S hands, it might have been expected not unreasonably that the 01 eeunen would have forthwith issued her corn mends for the preparation of the intended obsequies, without any further delay or any additional preli minary. Such, hoeseeer, has not been the course pursued under the circumstances by a MONARCH ever alive to the magnanimous sentiments of the popula tion. Instead of proceeding thus summarily to the arratogemert oe the projected cere monial, her MAJESTY determined , by once more referring the subject elsewhere, to admit the nation to participate more immediately in the anticipated ob sequies than could otherwise have b een Possible sup posing their authorization emanated exclusively from the4sersonal regrets of the SOVEREIGN. That a tri bute of this description was demanded by thousand imperative a imperative considerations the QueEN appears to h ave understood upon the instant, and without one mo ment's hesitation. Her chief Minister has Intim a t ed as much, indeed, in words that cannot very readily be forgotten. He has said—" The great apace which the name of the Duke of WELLINGTON has filled in the history of the last fifty years—bis brilliant achievements in the fie'd—his high mental qualities — his long and faithful services to the Crown—his un tiring devotion to the interests of his country—con stitute claims upon the gratitude of the nation which a public funeral, though it cannot satisfy, at least may serve to recognise." Yet the QUEEN was so far solicitous that that act of recognition should be in every way worthy of herself, of her people, and of the occasion, that she resolved to render it as much as possible national and PE popular in its character. The ~- t`= '. :Int„:,., EWS I THE SUN, manner in which this graceful and magnanimous re solution has been announced by the Noble Earl the PRIME MINISTER, of England is too remarkable of its kind not to be borne in very particular and grateful recollection. It is entitled to this especial remembrance inasmuch as it is signally honourable alike to the fame of the departed, to the generosity of the So- VEREIGN, and to her implicit confidence in the sym pathetic munificence of the population. " Her MA JESTY is well aware," said the Earl of DERBY, " that, as in the case of Lord NELSON, she might, of her own authority have given immediate orders for this public mark of veneration for the memory of the illustrious Duke, and has no doubt but that Parlia ment and the country would cordially have approved the step ; but her MAJESTY, anxious that this tri bute of regard and sorrow should be deprived of nothing which could invest it with a thoroughly na tional character—anxious that the greatest possible number of her subjects should have an opportunity of joining it—and anxious, above all, that such honours should appear to emanate from the general will, and that the two Houses of Parliament should have an opportunity, by their approving sanction, of stamping the proposed ceremony with increased so lemnity, and of associating themselves with her MAJESTY in paying honour to the memory of one whom no Englishman can name without pride and sorrow." It has, therefore, been fittingly resolved that the body of the Duke of WELLINGTON shall remain " under proper guardianship" at Widmer Castle until the newly-elected Parl i ament has as sembled, when the wishes of the QUEEN may receive t a n torchingg isatu r e. the final and formal approva l of the people, throu g h the voice of both Houses m of o a the beautiful lmperial L d e Perhaps, however, the recognition by the SOVEREIGN of the eminent services performed to the State by the late Duke of WEL LINGTON—perhaps the one which of all will prove the most peculiarly acceptable to the population—is that evidenced by her MAJESTY'S selection of St. Paul's Cathedral as the most appropriate scene of our Great Captain's be s epulture. There, iIS the nation desires, he i n terred " with all th e so l emn ity due to the mournfulnessof the occasi on ," re p os i n g by the side o f our immortal NELS ON — as th e P RIM E MINISTER eohly and truthfully expresses it—" the greatest Military by the side of the greatest Naval Chief who ever r#flected lustre upon the annals of England ! ' Everything augurs admirably for the grandeur and the glory of those obsequies which will, assuredly, constitute one of the most memorable and extraordinary incidents in the reign of our Gracious SOVEREIGN. Every thing promises that the national funeral of The Duke will crown by its splendour, in a becoming manner, the honours not undeservedly showered upon him by the MONARCH and by the Multitude, during the greater portion of his illustrious and protracted exist ence. When these memorable and remarkable obse quies shall at length have been completed, England will at least have the consolation of reflecting that to one of her greatest sons she has proved herself not altogether ungrateful. Whatever could be done by the CROWN and by the Country, whether in life or in death, to recognise the eminent achievements of the departed, will then to the full have been accom plished ! And the children of after generations will torn with emotions of reverence, not wholly, alas! unalloyed with those of regret, to that great Cathe dral Church of St. Paul's, beneath the dome of hich will thenceforth repose, side by side, the two teest glorious warriors of the Anglo-Saxon race— England having wisely resolved to associate yet more intimately by the contiguity of their illustrious tombs the kindred renown of her NELSON and her WELLINGTON. ' The principles and practice of life assurance are now universally recognised. There are few persons in receipt of incomes more than sufficient to meet Gash. daily expenditure—so far as the mere necessa ries of life are concerned—who do not deem it ex p, dient to set aside a portion of their receipts for the purpose of meeting some extraordinary demand or emergency, for which they would be unable to pro vi ae from their ordinary resources. Even persons in the possession of accumulated and realised property, whe are themselves placed beyond the possibility of personal distress, so far as human foresight can make provision for future contingencies, desire to appro priate a portion of their superfluities to the acquisi tien of additional means. The power of rendering Nines and children indspendent—of securing the pos session of an extra sum, beyond that included in the marriage settlement, or at the disposal of the husband or father, or, with a single man, the possibility of entering into those sacred relations—or even the mere desire of accumulation, although without any defi nite object—are sufficient to make every man of ordinary prudence set aside or save a considerable portion of his ordinary income. If, however, men of property and substance are thus provident, how much more desirable is it that those dependent on their own exertions for support, who owe their daily bread to their daily labour, should exhibit similar forethought, and endeavour to secure the means of livelihood for that period of life when the decay of his mental or physical powers may ren der each incapable of " winning his ain bread." Such persons are grossly culpable if they neglect this palpable duty, and the acknowledged necessity of such an appropriation is one of the strongest argu ments against the present unjust, oppressive, and in equitable assessment of the income and property-tax. Under such circumstances, it is by no means sur prising that the annual savings amount to about one fifth, or 20 per cent. of the annual revenue. That proportion is usually re-invested, and one of the most popular forms—for the advantages of mutual support and co-operation are now thoroughly appre ciated—is by way of " LIFE ASSURANCE. " A man full of strength and activity, confident in his own powers, will brave every danger, so long as life be spared, but he must succumb to the ordinary lot of mortals. Death may approach at any moment, and he feels that to be the chief, if not the only, con tingency to be guarded against. It is unnecessary to say that many companies have been formed to meet the general de• wand for " assurance facilities ;" some have been in existence for many years , and have accumulated immense property. Any establishment indeed conducted on just and honest principles must have Succeeded. A larger proportion have more re cently sprang into existence, and they also, whenever the managem ent has been unexceptional, have flourished, and, generally speaking, have exhibited greater liberality in their dealings than the more an cient established concer ns . however, recently been made on behalf of the seniors. An onslaught has, the junior branches by „ on Sufficient security for the cavillers lpaetaisudisr-eudspsledialipital can give that that at tnhoe t r h e in i g s noo ut an pe zle rs , a colossal founded the e guarantee appear to es sential in such a case. These forget that if their arguments were well since have insolvee more ancient establishments should long • , closed their doors in a state of hopeless encountered the clar--they could not have successfully difficul ties enumerated, but must either have made hea vy calls on the proprietors and shareholders, or defrauded the assurers. We do not wish to be understood as making any charge against the old companies. They discharge their obligations to the very hour, pay very hand some dividends to the shareholders, and have large reserved funds ready for any favourable invest ment. But these funds have been gained from " the assured," and the young companies can do the same, and become in due time as prosperous. Nay, more, the great experience now obtained in matters once obscure and comparatively unknown, enable new companies to offer advantages to the assured, and that without any loss to themselves, which the traditions of the ancient offices, and the Influence of very respectable, but rather antiquated, cffic_ers, prevents their rivals from sanctioning. a an illustration of these points, we would di rect attentiorSto the advertisement of a comparatively Junior c ompany, luml. _ which will be found in another co -"er There we find the board of direction coin prising a body f gentlemen of unimpeached and unimpeachabl e afford ample respectability , see. whose characters will winciling, for nothi ng against any unfair play or else can render an insurance company insolvent. We also find that the greatest objection to life assurance, which has prevented many `parties from availing themselves of its advantages—the p o ssibility of being un- . LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 28, 1852. able to keep up the annual premium, is obviated. An option will be allowed to every person of withdrawing the sum which the policy is then worth, or ceasing to pay any further premiums, and having the equivalent value secured at death. The benefits thus conferred may be best estimated from the fact that without such a proviso the policy might lapse, and all previous payments become for feited to the society. In addition, there is every other advantage offered by other com panies. " The policies ar e no t vo id by suicide." Dig. r other ee e, ve a offices, i n the mmanaynebre mosta e and to the assured. The policies will rea lly eased lives, re p fu ay se m d en b ts y convenient n e p n t v e e d n , i e nt be indisputable, for the grounds on which the liability could be litigated w ill not b e i nserted in the policy, and will, therefore, not be regarded as a warranty by the assured, a failure of which would render void the obligation on the part o f the company. The secretary and actuary de serves much credit for the manner in which he has got up the concern, f or it i s on th a t o ffi cer th a t the responsibility ma i n l y falls, and Mr. C. W. BEVAN has proved himself an acquisition to any com pany. We doubt, then, if any of the old companies could offer greater inducements to new customers than may be obtained from modern companies, and few offer so favourable a combination as THE DE POSIT AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The PRINCE PRESIDENT reached Marseilles from Avignon at five o'clock, on the 26th instant. When he arrived at the Porte d'Aix he received from the hands of the mayor the keys of the town. The en thusiasm was at its highest point, when the PRINCE got on horseback, and went through the Rue d'Aix and the Cours, in the midst of a concourse of up wards of 100,000 inhabitants. Everywhere were to be seen corps of workmen with their banners and de putationsof journeymen. The windows were every where dressed out. Upwards of 600 persons of note awaited the PRINCE at the Prefecture, and foremost amongst them were two envoys of the POPE and the King of NAPLES, charged to carry to the PRINCE at Marseilles the felicitations of their respective So vereigns. The Count DE ST. MARSAN, archbishop in partibus, formerly nuncio at different courts, was the representative of the Roman Court, and General RORERTI, aide-de -camp of the King of NAPLES. At half-past six, a dinner of eighty covers was given by the PRINCE at the Prefecture, whilst ladies of every class of society circulated round the table of the PRINCE. At nine o'clock the PRINCE proceeded to the theatre, where his arrival was greeted with en thusiastic transports. There, as in the streets, shouts of " Vive l'Empereur !" were universally raised. At eleven o'clock he returned to the Prefecture in the midst of similar cries from an immense crowd. The municipal council of Dijon have adopted a re solution expressive of their wish that the Senate should confer, within the shortest possible delay, the hereditary imperial power on Prince Louis NAPO LEON. Addresses of a similar tendency have been also presented within the last day or two by the au thorities and inhabitants of Septeme, Hevrieux, Cha vagnieux, St. Clair, La Chapelle, and Verniog, in the Isere ; and Argeles, in the Hautes-Pyrenees. The Aloniteur Algerien of the 20th publishes a fresh list of commutations of punishments granted to the transported prisoners of 1852 by the PRINCE PRESIDENT since the Ist inst. They include 1 from the Hautes Alpes, 9 from the Aveyron, 72 from the Drome, 3 from the Herault, 1 from the Vaucluse, and 34 from the Loiret. The Moniteur de Armee says—" It has been re ported that the conspiracy against the life of the PRESIDENT was hatched at Toulon, where the machine is said to have been constructed. It was calculated to make 800 victims. According to the same ver sion, arrests are said to have been made simulta neously at Marseilles and at Toulon, and it is added that the authors of the plot form part of a secret so ciety called the Vengeurs." The Observateur Beige was distributed by the Post-office on Sunday, after being interdicted en trance into France during several months. Great activity prevails at present in the different Ministries, and the chief functionaries are engaged i preparing Bills for the next session of the Legislative body. The Prefect of the Seine and the Municipal Coun cil intend, says the Union, to give the PRINCE PRE SIDENT on his return to Paris a reception of such pomp as even to surpass that of the departments. By a recent decision of the Fame PRESIDENT certain modifications are made in the allowances and pay of generals, colonels, and other officers. On en tering on a campaign a general of division is to re ceive an allowance of 6,000 f.; a general of brigade 4,0001.; and a commissary-general 4,000 f. The pay of a colonel of infantry in active service is to be 5,500 f. a year, and of cavalry 6,000 f. There is a long article in the Debats on the Uni versal Exhibitions cf Industry, announced for 1853 in Ireland and New York. The Debuts regrets that these exhibitions should be simultaneous, as this cir cumstance must, it thinks, be injurious to both; and it is, besides, of opinion that neither of them is abso lutely necessary, so soon after the Great Exhibition of London. It is not be supposed, says the Debats, that in so short a period industry can have made such progress as to render other public exhibitions necessary. The Journal du Hcivre says—" We think we may announce that an influential company is now being formed at Paris for the purpose of proposing to the Government the establishment of a line of steamers between Havre and Rio Janeiro. This company has among its subscribers almost all the firms which have commercial relations with the Brazils. It is proposed that these vessels shall run every month between Havre, Lisbon, Madeira, Goree, Per nam b uco an d Bahia, and be united at Rio to a line which will run to the other adjoining ports for the transport of pas sengers and merchandise." A letter from Chalon-sur-Saone, of the 25th, states that the vintage had just commenced in the Cote'd'Or, under very unfavourable auspices both as regards quantity and quality. The Bourse opened feebly, but it became:more firm towards the close of business. The Four-and-a-Half per Cents. opened at 104 f. 20c., and closed at 104 f. 30c. for the end of the month; the Three per Cents. closed at 77f. 90c.; Orleans Railway Shares, 1,490 f.; Rouen, 3951.; Havre, 4161. 25c.; Great Northern, 711 f. 25c.; Avignon, 525 f.; Basle, 326 f. 25e.; Paris and Strasburg, 746 t. 25c.; Paris and Lyons, 815 f.; Lyons and Avignon, 625 f.; Western of France, 6551.; St. Dizier to Gray, 5451.

It will, it is said, comprise the prisoners in Bohemia and the students who took part in the disturbances of May.

The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa states from Cagliari, 18th inst., that a rich coal mine has just been discovered in the vicinity of the village of Gonezza. The quality is said to be excellent. Several companies have already applied to the Sardinian Go vernment for concessions of land, for the purpose of sinking shafts, in the hopes of finding more of that precious mineral.

The following table of desertions in New York alone is very instructive : SWEDISH VESSELS. Number of Number of Number Ye ar• of Ships.

Th e diff erence i n f avour o f th e N orwe gian he thinks explains the less number of desertions from Norwegian ships. The American wage in New York is usually about fifteen American dollars, and therefore the temptation to desert is very great. They are mostly encouraged by crimps and speculators.

F. Wachter, civil engineer, of Rotterdam, has designed a plan to prevent railway trains from running off the rails, and for stopping them instantaneously. It consists of two distinct parts—first, a third or middle rail , with guides, the object of which is to prevent the carriages running off the line ; and secondly, a set of brakes which come into opera tion all at once on every carriage of the train, by turning a screw either on the locomotive or on the tender. The two parts (he says) may be applied separately, but be hew com bined them both, as both the objects to be attained are of equal importance. FATAL ACCIDENT AT PUTNEYOBRIDGE.-011 Sun day, between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock, an out rigger boat with four persons in her was in the act of passing through the centre arch of Putney-bridge, when, from some cause unexplained at present, the boat came athwart one of the wooden piers, and was instantly capsized. The four young men were immersed in very deep water, it being nearly high tide and running very strong. Three of the occu pants of the boat could swim well, and succeeded in righting the boat and rowing to shore, but the unfortunate one who was drowned, could not swim, and sank instantly. Great efforts were made by both the Fulham and Putney water men to recover the body by use of the drags, but they were not successful until between nine and ten o'clock yesterday r uing, when he was found near the spot where he sank. The deceased's name is Wm. Butts, age 25 ; he was a remark ably fine young man, his trade was that of a block maker, and it is said that he was the sole support of his father and mother.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti• mated at 12,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export, and 1,000 Egyptian and 3,000 Ameri can on speculation. The market was animated, and closed firmly with American nearly id. per pound higher. Other kinds without alteration. The sales comprised 9,500 American, 210 Pernam and Maranham, at 61c1. to 7ii.; 1,200 Egyptian, at 6d. to ls. Id.; and 1,000 Surat, at aid. to aid. per lb.—Railway Shares were heavy at lower quotations. The Ganges, from Sydney, has brought 17,852 ounces in gold, which, with the amount from Port Philip by the Medway, as stated yesterday under this head, gives a total cf nearly 330,0001. This is more than we have ever before had in one day from Australia, but probably not yet the most we shall have. The commercial letters from France, alluding to the Customs' receipts of the country daring the past month, state that, compared with August, 1851, there was a slight increase. The articles of import upon which more duty was received were wool and oil, iron, and Belgian linens, the quantity having increased considerably. This, it is observed, does not agree with the complaints made by Belgium. The total receipts of the eight moaths are given at 92,000,000 florins against 76,500,000 florins to the end of August, 1851. The exports from France have not been so good. Woollens, shawls, cloths, oottons, machinery, china, and wines declined last month. The English Funds have been very steady, but there is scarcely any business doing. Consols have been quoted 100 to for Transfer. The premium on Ex chequer-bills is 705., and on East India Bonds B , ls. India Stock is at 277. There is still no foreign news of importance to act upon values. The Foreign Market has been more active. Peru vian Deferred have been up to 624 and 63k, the intimation by Mr. President Webster that he has been misinformed, and cannot allow American ships to take guano from the Lobos islands, being all in favour of tho security. Grenada Deferred abo are looking better, having been done at 11i and 12. Venezuela Stock is worth 42 to 43, a sufficiently high price as many will think, considering the tenor of the last intelligence from the republic. Spanish Three per Cents. have been quoted 50i, and the New Deferred 23i a. Sardinian Bonds are at 954 to 96. Portuguese Stock is lower, being at 38k. Russian Five per Cents. have been done at 118} without the dividend. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been at 64k. Railway Shares have all been worse, and this results from the arrangements for the settlement of the specu lative half-monthly account. There is at present so little doing for investment, owing to the absence of nu merous parties from town, that the market becomes very susceptible towards the time when " carrying over" has to be effected. French Shares have been flatter also, and with less doing. The Gold Aline Shares are quiet, and United Mexican have further receded. National Patent Steam Fuel shares aro 5-16 to 7-16 for the settlement. The Bank of India, so long talked of, is out at last. The proposed capital is a million sterling, and it is as sumed that, with increased steam taavigation and more railways, there will be greater room for the employment of capital. QUARTER TO THREE.

The first line to be constructed will be from Tenningen to Flensburg, a distance of 35 miles, which will open up a rapid communication ipvoitllivetrhfuelßimalptuicl,seatnodt,hine conjunction with the contemplated operations of the North of Europe Steam Company, give a already important trade of that district. This road will pass over a dead level, and its cost is estimated not to exceed 10,0001. a mile. The concession, which is for 100 years, gives exclusive privileges also for ulterior extensions, and the general arrangements entered into, Loth with regard to the occupation of laud and the security for an adequate re turn upon the outlay, are believed to be extremely favourable.
