CLERICAL, MEDICAL, AND GENERAL lJ LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY. BONUS MEETING, 1867. The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 3d January last, for the declaration of the EIGHTH BONUS, showed, 1. As TO THE PROGRESS OF THE SOCIETY, lat, during the quinquennial period which terminated on the 30th June, 1866, _ _ _ NEW ASSURANCES for a total sum of £1,518,181, and yielding £50,497 in Annual Premiums, had been effected, of which sums the former exceeded £31,811, and the latter by £2,392, the corresponding items of any previous period ; that THE INCO HE had increased from £195,400 to £215,327 per annum ; and that THE ASSURANCE FUND, after payment of £85,303 on account of Bonus at the last Division, had risen from £1,422,191 to £1,619,339. • 2. As TO TILE FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE SOCIETY. That the Assets on June 30, 1866, were £1,619,539 14 8 And the Liabilities on the same date ... 1,313,708 19 2 Leaving a surplus of £275,830 15 6 and that, after setting aside £50,000 as a special Reserve Fund, THE AVAILABLE PROFIT was £225,830 15s. 6d., of which sum £225,000 was recommended for division. 3. As TO THE RESULTS OF THE DIVISION. That the portion of this sum of £225,000—viz., five-sixths, or £187,500 —which fell to the Assured, would yield a REVERSIONARY ADDITION TO THE POLICIES of £272,682, averaging 45 per Cent., or varying, with the different ages, from 32 to 85 per Cent. on the premiums paid since the last division; and that the CASH BONUS, which is the exact equivalent of such Reversionary Bonus, would average 26 per Cent. of the like premiums. The Report explained at length the nature of the In vestments and the bases of the Calculations, the results of which, as above shown, are eminently favourable. The next DIVISION OF PlibflTS will , take place'in January, 1872, and Persons who effect NEW POLICIES BEFORE THE END OF JUNE'NEXT will be entitled 'at that „Division to one year's additional share of Profits over later Assurers. • Prospectuses, "Forms of Proposaii the :11 4 / s nrt above inen tioned, and a detailed account of the proceadinms of the Bonus.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, EPSOM R..SCES.—Tuunenay. Yesterday's remarkable race still occupies all thoughts and conversation. That a horse who had broken a blood vessel within the last fornight, hal been stopped in his work, had not had a gallop since Monday week, and who started at 100 to 1, should yet be able to win a Derby will long stamp this as a memorable year. In our remarks on the first day's racing we spoke of this Derby as ono to be characterised fur its tni,fortnues and mediocrities; but, bad as the year's form was known to be, it appears we hardly realised its badness when an unprepared horse came and won, and Wild Moor finished fourth. Such a result sets at naught all racing judgment and calculations, and puts that much-vaunted " public form" out of court. True, it was the two-year-old form over again. As Hermit beat Vauban at Stockbridge last June, so he has beaten him again here; but not a man on Epsom Downs yesterday morning could have been found to believe it. The Two Thousand winner in all his splendid condition and bloom on one hand, the unprepared and rather mean-looking Hermit on the other, it looked all Lombard-street to the proverbial orange. The deduction is obvious, and brings us back to our premises, only when we spoke of the year as mediocre we perhaps used too mild a term. To-day was even colder than Wednesday, and none but the constant habitues of a racecourse were present. The favourite, flerenniantts, was defeated in the Tadworth Stakes by Dick Turpin, but Lord Westrrioreland managed to win in the Carew Stakes with Master Willie; the Cor poral made a very near race of it, and only got beaten by a head. It was a rather difficult thing to separate Lady Elizabeth and Grimston in. tbn.Twer..Year_Old Stakes, as their running has very nearly made them the same ani mals. From an impression, however, that this course would suit Mr. Pryor's horse best he was made the fa vourite, and a slashing set-to between them resulted in a dead heat. In the deciding heat Lady Elizabeth wonafter a splendid finish by a head. The Epsom Cup brought out a large field, in which there were so many "well in" that it was a dangerous race to meddle with. The favourite, Cheltenham, finished a good race with the outsiders, the Annie Laurin and the Flutter colt, but failed to getup, and was beaten by three-quarters of a length. We aro authorised to contradict the statement which has appeared in a contemporary that a noble lord who won the Two Thousand a few years back has lost £lOO,OOO on the Derby, as it is devoid of foundation. The Tadworth Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 100 added; two year olds 7st, three 9st; fillies and geldings allowed 31b; the winner to be sold, with engagements, for 200 sovs. Half a mile.

After some .half-dozen failures Prelate jumped off with a clear lead, but before they had gone 50 yards he was passed by Ross, the favourite, Adjutant, and Bouquetiere, with Dick Turpin close up at the head of the remainder. On passing the distance Dick Turpin came to the front, and, making the remainder of the running, won cleverly by a length ; a head between second and third. Heren nianus, close up, was fourth, The Don fifth, and Master Robert sixth. The last two were Patti and Ross. The winner was purchased for 425 guineas by Lord Vivian, who also claimed Adjutant.

Corporal, to the right of his horses, came on with a clear lead of Lady Sophie, Ambition, and the favourite, the latter lying next the rails. They ran thus half-way in the distance, when Mr. Johnstone's colt drew away, but was caught as they neared the stand by Master Willie, who obtained a slight advantage a dozes strides from the chair, and won a slashing race by a head. Magpie finished a bad third, Midwife . was fourth, Lady Sophie fifth, Jeanie Deans sixth, and Ambition next. Ras in Urbe, Diamond, and Ambition were the last three.

Several breaks away occurred, in the firstof which Bossy Dixon ran to the enclosure before she could be stopped. When the flag was lowered Lady Elizabeth, with Balsam° and Bossy Dixon on her left, got away in advance of King Alfred and Grimston, to the stand. Here Balsamo and Busy Dixon gave way, and Grimston then challenged the leader, and, getting up in the last stride, was just enabled to make a dead beat of it. King Alfred was third, a length in the rear, Weather Isle fourth, Hatchment fifth, Balsam° sixth, Bossy Dixon seventh, and Benfieet last. Deciding Heat.— Betting -L55 to 40 on Grimston.

A ineeting of the general committee of share holders in , this company was held on Tuesday in Glasgow; Mr. G. Smith in the chair. The report of the sub-committee in reference to the bill for amalgamating this company with the Midland CoMpany stated that by the proposed amal gamation the interests of the public would not be prejudiced, but, on the contrary, be materially pro moted. The main lines of the two companies would form portions of a great continuous communication between London and Glasgow ; and that the amal gamation would preclude the possibility of the West Coast route being monopolised by the London and North-Western and Caledonian Railway Com panies. The Glasgow and South-Western was hemmed in, and its success to a great extent was controlled by those companies. The position of the Glasgow and South-Western and of the Midland Railway Companies were found to be so nearly alike, that an amalgamation on equal terms was deemed the fairest course for both. The committee felt war ranted in recommending the Amalgamation Bill to the cordial support of the shareholders. On the motion of Mr. Smith, seconded by Mr. Nicholson, the report was approved, and the sub committee were requested to take steps to secure the passing of the amalgamation bill, and its ap proval by the shareholders. GRAND TRUNK OP CANADA. of this company states that since the half-yearly meeting on the 18th April last, the board had had two separate conferences, one with the postal and military bondholders, and the other with some of the largest holders of each class of bonds and stocks, representing about £4,000,000 of the company's capital.

But, 0 , i n the meantime, the board would explain that , if 1 a h leaving u ol t d h r r s i : the plan be ultimately adopted, it would not only increase the total amount of preference capital, although leaving available £480,000 of it, but would, having regard to the future, add little, if anything, to the amount of annual interest on such capital. The interest on the existing equipment bonds (£500,000 at 6 per cent.) was £30,000 a year ; to this must be added the amount which, when the Inter colonial Railway was in full operation, would be the annual sum then accruing to the postal and military bondholders on their capital of £1,200,00 0 . that amount would be c ould, of course, b e only matter of estimate. For 1866-7 it would be h about nt exceptional, there seemed no reason to dou bt the p robability at least of If the 4 per cent. on the £ 1,200,000 ; but, althoug year's revenue was to some extent this an increase even within the next few years. increase should in (say) fiv© yea be only one fourth in excess of the income of 1866-7, then the annual charge would be £60,000 a year; should it be one-half, then tha t charge would be £72,000 a rs year—that was to say, it would, with the interest on the present amount of e q uipment bonds, as above (X 30,000), amount to £102,000, w hich was just equal to what would be the i n t er est on the total a mount of equipment bonds as they would exist if the proposed new pla n were adopted. The board had no hesitation in reco mmending to their brother bond and stock holders g enerall y the proposed settle ment with the postal bondholders, while to the latter that plan might also be recommended as giving them a more marketable security for their money, and more tban the amount of annual income they had received on the average of the past five years. As regarded the retu rn to be ex p ected from the judi cious gradual out la y of such portions of the proposed new capital of £480,000 as might from time to time be thought expedient, the board referred the pro prietors to the report o f Mr. Brydges, of the 3d of April last, and to the e x p lanations given at the last ' enera l meeting. ____ BUFFALO AND LAKE HURON. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. E. lleseltine in the chair. Alr. Short, the secretary; having read the notice convening - the meeting, the report:, an abstract of which has appeared hi The Sun, was taken as read. The CHATIMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said the lint: was worked by the Grand 'rank of Canada Compi.my. The report ,:ontained all the iefornation the dire tors could give at pre sent. The small amount of net revenue might re quire some explanation to the preference share holders, as the accounts showed no surplus for divi dend on the preference shares. The directors ex pected that the Grand Trunk system would be in a short time so improved as to be worked at 60 per cent. of the gross receipts, and were it not for the loss on American currency, they would have been in receipt of a handsome sum to divide. The Great Western of Canada Company worked their traffic at 50 per cent. of the gross receipts, and when the revenue on the Grand Trunk increased to a certain extent he had no doubt the line would be worked at the rate he had mentioned. The receipts recently averaged about £25,000 or £26,000 a week; but when they got up to an average of £30,000 a week the percentage of working expenses would be re duced in proportion. He hoped the shareholders did not suppose that their line was doomed to be always down. In reply to a question respecting the cur rency, he stated that for the first half of last year the loss on the currency was only £11,261, but for the second half of last year it amounted to £61,828, which. was a very large sum. _The explanation h had received from Mr. Brydges was that it some times happened they had a larger balance over for realisation at the end of one half-year than at the end of another. The loss on the American cur rency in the past year was £75,000, but the rate of exchange was now more favourable than it was 18 months ago. The directors had had several diffe rences to settle on matters of account with the Grand Trunk Company, and they found that the process of referring differences to arbitration was slow, and he had suggested that many of these differences might be more readily settled on the give and take principle, which was responded to by Mr. Brydges, so that those differences were now being much reduced in number. Mr. P. RAMSON, a director, seconded the motion for the adoption of the report, which was carried unanimously. In reply to a question it was stated that there would be no interest for the preference shares till next August, when they hoped to have funds at their disposal for that purpose. There were not many differences of account now between the two companies, and when these were settled they trusted that things would go on very smoothly, and that they would have precedents to go by in future. The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN. The traffic returns on this company's lines for the fourth week in April amounted to $115,965 against $95,429 for the corresponding week last year, show ing an increase of $20,536. The traffic for the month of April amounted to $443,029 against $394,543 for April, 1867, showing an increase of $48,496. ILLINOIS CENTRAL. The financial statement of thin company for the month of April showed that 15,000 acres of land were sold during the month for $170,593, and that the amount of cash collected in the land•department in April was $156,635. The total receipts on the company's railways for the month of April was $420,366, and for the same month in 1866 to $106,773, showing an increase of $13,593. TRUST AND LOAN OF UPPER CANADA. The report of the directors states that the balance at credit of revenue, including £261 from Sept. last, was £17,327, oo.of which they recommend a dend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, less in come tax, on the paid up c pital stock of the com pany ; that one half of the surplus profits over 6 per cent. per annum, and the usual charge for interest, amounting together to £5,752, be carried to the re serve fund, and that £250 be applied to the redemp tion of preliminary expenses, leaving £1,825 for the next account. SAN PAULO BRAZILIAN. The traffic receipts on this company's line, 86} miles in length, for the month of March, amounted for passengers, &c., to £1,865 ; and for goods, &c., to £7,946 ; total, £9,811. RAILWAY BILLS. Yesterday, in Lord Redesdale's Committee, the Petersfield and Bishop's Waltham Bill was adjourned till Monday ; the Rathkeale and Newcastle Junction was adjourned till the 31st inst., and the Fulham Bill was passed with amendments. In the com mittee held in Room C, the Metropolitan and North Metropolitan were adjourned until to-day. The committee in the Painted Chamber passed the Great Eastern Bill with amendments. The Great Eastern (Stean_boats) Bill was passed. Before the Examiner for the Ibuse of Lords the Solway Junction was passed. In the House of Commons' Committee on unop posed bills, the Devon and Cornwall Bill was passed with amendments, and also the Central Cornwall Bill was passed. The Athenry and Ennis Junction Bill was passed without amendments ; the Glasgow (City) - Union Bill was passed with amendments, and also the Bristol Port Railway and Pier and the Dublin Trunk Connecting. The North British (Carlisle Deviation) was adjourned. In group 7, the Midland and Glasgow and South-Western Bill was proceeded with and adjourned ; the Midland was further adjourned, as were the Tewkesbury and Malvern and the Wolverhampton and Walsall. In Group No. 12, the London, Chatham, and Dover was proceeded with and adjourned; in the London, Chatham, and Dover (No. 3), the London, Chat ham, and Dover (No. 2), and the London, Chatham, and Dover (No. 4) appearances were taken, and the bills were adjourned. MAURITIUS. The traffic receipts on the Mauritius Govern ment lines for the four weeks ending the 7th of April amounted on 66 miles of railway to £4,083, and for the corresponding four weeks last year on the same mileage to £5,101, showing a decrease of £l,OlB. MADRAS IRRIGATION AND CANAL. The report of the directors states that a satisfac tory recommencement of executive operations had been made in respect of the works between Soon kasala and Cuddapah, and all desirable proceedings had been adopted for their vigorous continuance. A number of executive engineers had been most carefully selected in England and despatched to Madras, and were now engaged along the line of main canal between Soonkasala and Cuddapah, under the direction of the chief engineer. In Oc tober last the Secretary of State in Council for India had officially stated in a communication to the local Government that he considered it particularly desir able that the company should have no grounds for complaint of unnecessary delay on the part of the Government in passing orders on plans and esti. mates. It was therefore hoped that in future greatergeate freedom of action would be permitted to h pany, and that those portions of the guarantee system which had hitherto been productive of delay, expense, and disappointment would henceforth be materially modified. The breach in the Auicut at Soonkasala had been repaired in a substantial manner. The complete and unfinished embankment and masonry I walls of the main canal between the 18th and the 72d miles bad been carefully examined and tested under the superintendence of the company's c hi e f engineer, and all measures necessary to strengthen them would now be executed without loss of time. In the meantime the works between the 72d mile Vigour faourdtCheuidrdeaapraiilo7toanuldd belull p o u B s t h t e l d tas fo a r t w io a n rd with , The upper portion of the Bellary section from Wallayspor Bellary, 67 miles in length, had been most carefully planned by Mr. Gordon, and had been favourably reported on by the Government engineer. The whole of the guaranteed capital of £1,000,000, with the exception of £1,499, bad been paid to the Secre tary of State in Council, and it was therefore pro posed that the necessary authority should be given by the proprietors for converting the same into guatanteed stock. The guaranteed capital would, it was calculated, be wholly expended in India by the middle of June, front which time the expendi ture on account of the agreed advance of £600,000 by the Secretar - of State would commence. L E LaIIU. DUTLIN, May 23. Preparations are being made for the execution of the convict Burke on Wesinesday next. The warrant will be forward d to the governor of Kilmainham Gaol to-day. Burke is resigned to his fate, aud pays great attention to his religions duties. Every body is kind and considerate towards him, and his prison fare is of the mos; generous character. He is said to be cheerful, and to have not declined in health since his conviction. His wife and children, have been spoken of, but the Very Rev. Canon Kennedy, P.P., who is his spiritual director, has published a letter in which he says that the only woman he mentions is his mother, to whom he seems devotedly attached. Capt. WAfferty also appears perfectly resigned to his doom, and converses cheer fully with the officials of the prison. Both con victs occupy the cells they had before their trial.. The Sisters of Charity are frequent visitors to tlae prison, and do all they can to console the unfortu nate men in their awful position. There is still some hope, however, that at the Ilst moment the Atneen hmself mereitulki s a ve, them from the gallows. One fact is much against this hope—neither they nor any of the principal in surgents have expressed the slightest repentance far their acts of rebellion. On the contrary, they have all shown themselves to be animated by a spirit of hatred and defiance to the Government. If they themselves acknowledged the criminality of their acts and implored pardon, the case would be diffe rent. But still the question remains whether it is politic to make them martyrs. At the Special Commission yesterday sentence was pronounced as follows upon persons guilty on the indictment charging them with offences under the Whiteboy Act :—Patrick Meares and Henry Filgate, two years' imprisonment each ; Andrew Milor, 12 months' imprisonment ; Joseph Brown and Joseph M'Carty, 15 months' each ; Joseph Tomkins, 18 months', and James Mullaney, nine months' imprisonment. A number of persons were allowed to Stand out on bail, or on their own re cognizance, to be of good behaviour for live years, and to appear when caLted on to stand their trial. The Court adjourned till 10 o'clock this morning. Alfred. Aylward was hrought up before Mr. Bar ton, at the head-office, yesterday. The police had no further evidence to produce against him on the charge of Fenianism, and the magistrates ordered him to be discharged ; but when leaving the court he was arrested under a warrant of the Lords Jus tices and taken to Kilmainham Gaol, where he will be detained under the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act. He has not yet disclosed the names of the parties who fired at him. A reputed Fenian leader, named M'Donnell, who absconded from Slane, county of Meath, after the rising,"has been arrested at Newcastle, in England. He is said to have mounted a neighbour's horse on the night of the sth of March, and to have ridden about the country rousing the people to join in the insurrection at Drogheda. The Cork Special Commission makes some pro gress. Four prisoners, M'Clure, Kelly, Joyce, and Bowler, were put on their trial for high treason yesterday morning. The Attorney-General stated the case for the Crown. It was nearly the same story which has been so often told. The approver Corydon was the first witness, an I he gave his evi dence in the same flippant manner that distin , Ignished him iu Dublin. He was cross-erimined by Mr. Heron, Q.C., who has been "assigned with Mr. Waters as counsel for the prisoners. DUBLIN, Thursday Evening. Captain M'Clure, on his trial for high treason at Cork, has pleaded " Guilty." Sentence deferred. Edward Otnegan pleaded " Guilty" in Dublin to the charge of treason felony. Several others, arraigned for minor offences, also pleaded "Guilty'i and were discharged. The Chalmers Target at Vincennes. Some important experiments were made on Mon day at Vincennes in the presence of various distin guished officers of the Artillery and Marines in the French and English services. One of the main ob jects was to test the Chalmers system of backing armour-plates. Two targets were erected—one on the Chalmers plan, and the other representing a section of an ordinary French ironclad ship of war. The superficial dimensions of the targets were the same—about 17ft. by Bft ; and they were placed side by side in a nearly vertical position. The French target was protected by two wrought-iron plates of 71 inches, but the plates on this as well asout the other cove red a portion of t he surface only, bout the by 6ft. The Chalmers target had a front plate of 5i inches ; behind which was the compound back ing of alternate layers of iron and timber ; the laminae of iron being a foot wide and over i-inch thick, the timber being of the same width, and 6 inches in thickness. These layers were, before be fore being attached to the target, riveted together in blocks of three plates of iron and two planks of timber ; the whole backing finally resting against a. second plate of Finch iron covering the upright timbers of the target. The vertical timbers and inner planking of both targets were alike, and both were supported in the rear by iron knees and a strong diagonal frame of timber. The two were, it would seem, intended to have been fired at alter nately, but the actual practice made was against the Chalmers target only. The rounds were fired from a 9-inch 12-ton Armstrong gun, throwing 250 pound steel shot with Palliser ogival form of head ; some were with full charges of 431 b. of English powder, and some with reduced charges. Two shots penetrated, one stuck, and three failed to get through the out plating. These experiments seem to deserve attentive con sideration.. Strict comparison with those recently made against combined steel and iron plates at Shoe buryness is hardly possible, h•cause the plates there were unsupported, and the effects of the Palliser missiles upon them was more of a simple punching nature. Still when we regtrd the fact that in our experiments a 7in. gun was used against 7in. plates, and just penetrated, or rather stuck, in gelled with e two best plates (Messrs. Cammell's), when prop 151 b. of powder, we must accord some very con siderable value to Mr. Chalmer's backing when, with its assistance, a 531 n. plate can be made to keep out the larger and heavier shot from a 9in. gun . The rule for punching plates is well known— namely, a di,uueter of shot slightly larger than the thickness of the plate, and the greater the margin . between the diameter of the shot and the thickness of plate the more the difference tells in favour of the penetrative action of the shot. We have the impression that a 51in. Millwall iron plate has stopped the 7in. shot; but any strict analogies or comparisons cannot be made out, because these de tails of the French experiments, which ha s ve iy reached entl us from private sou r c es, are not sufficiently ample. We know that in these last Vincennes trials the effect of two or three of the stringers in the backing brought into resisting action simulta neously by the impact of the missile prevented pene tration even when fully charged, but we do not l know the distance at which the gun was placed. Nr e also know that when the shot got through the armour where the plating was supported by only one stringer,. the shot was turned aside and became jammed in the backing. This would seem to indicate that the number of iron laminae in the backing might be increased and the thickness of the wood planking diminished, or, in other words, that the more frequent alternations of wood and iron planking would be beneficial to resistance offered by the Chalmers target. These particulars would also seem to extend the proofs of the yalite of Mr, Chalmers's system, Now ready at all the Libraries, in 3 vols.. BRIDE. By the Author of ".•=t. Olavc's," &c.
