The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 3d January last, for the declaration of the EIGIITII BONUS, showed, 1. AS TO THE PROGRESS OF TILE SOCIETY, that, 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 whi c h sums the former exceeded by £31,811, and the latter by £2,392, the corresponding items of any previous period; that THE INCOME had increased from £195,400 to £215,327 per annum; and that THE ASSURANCE FUND, after payment of £85,803 on account of Bon us a t t h e last Division, had risen from £1,422,191 to £1,619,539. 2. As TO THE 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 ............... .£275,880 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. Aa TO THE RESULTS OP THE DIVISION. That the portion of this sum of £225,000 —viz., five-sixths, or £lB7,soo—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 PROFITS 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.

Post-oflicc Orden to be made payable to John White, Yon- Qi#9o, The opening day of the above fixture was characterised by cold weather, a bitter east wind blowing in the teeth of the fair number of spectators who had assembled on the course with the true racing heroism which was never yet daunted by unpropitious skies. The proceedings com menced at two o'clock with the Lansdowne Trial Stakes, which set the example for the miserable fields which were to follow, with only three runners. The marvellous " miler" Ostreger made a terrible example of Crown Prince and old Queen of Trumps, whose owners pre sumed to oppose him, as he gave them both weight and cantered in 30 lengths ahead of them. The "sensation" race of the day followed in the Fifteenth Biennial. This race was thought so good a thing for Wroughton that odds were freely laid on Mr. Cartwright's colt, upon the strength of his having run the present first favourite for the Derby to a head at Newmarket. Never, perhaps, was there a stronger case of " misplaced confidence," as Mr. Fleming's hitherto dangerous " outsider" for the "blue riband," won with tha most ridiculous ease by 15 lengths. This beim certainly justifies his owner's enthusiastic re mark about the horse, after his recent victory at Ascot, which was to the effect that " Van" was the best horse in Europe. What can get in front of such a "clipper" over the Epsom Downs on Wednesday next will be a puzzle for the astutest turf prophet ever "foaled" to solve, not withstanding that as, much as 12 to 1 was obtainable about. the slashing son of Van Galen. The Two Year Old Biennial proved the "good thing" it looked for.Grimston, who hinded the odds of 100 to 30 laid on him very easily. The Beaufort Cup resulted arusual in a great surprise, for not withstanding the form displayed by lloulsey, it was gene rally supposed that he could not got the distance, and as much as 4 to 1 was betted against him, while 6 to 4 was on Lecturer, who was beaten "into fits," thus show ing what a chance Lord Bateman lost of carrying off the Chester Cup by one of those unfortunate scrimmages which are sure to take place over the Ehoodee Course. Tumbler gave another proof of his previous form in the County Members' Plate, which concluded an interesting day's sport. As usual at this meeting there was some important betting on the Derby. In addition to the movement which took place in connection with Van Amburgh, seine notable speculation arose about Vauban and The Rake, the first named receding toes much as 3 to 1, at which price ho was backed for £lOO, and would have been supported for more money, but that 5 to 2 was only obtainable afterwards. An offer was then made to back The Rake against Vauban for an even thousand, which was accepted the moment it was offered by the Duke of Beaufort, who subsequently doubled the bet, and this emphatic support had the effect of giving the Two Thou Sand winner a call over The Rake, their prices at the close being sto '2 ud3to 1. Beyond these three animals none of the other Derby candidates wore affected, and except that 1,000 to 15 was taken about Ben Nevis and Tynedalo coupled, no other transactions took place at the time. The details of the running are as follow : The LansdowneTrial Stakes of 5 sovs eacb,with 50 &died ; three year olds 7s 31b, four Bst 51b, five and upwards 9st; mares allowed 31b ; the winner to be sold for 800 sovs ; if entered for 400 sovs allowed 31b, if not to be sold 71b extra mile. so r.

After about half the distance had been traversed, Van Amburgh drew up to the leaders, Alcazar and Whirli gig simultaneously dropping into the rear, and Van Am burgh, waiting on Wroughton to half way up the straight, came away and won in a canter by 15 lengths.

As they rounded the bend Vixen was beaten, and the Knight was left in front, but in a few strides he was joined by Goojerat, the pair running a tremendous race home, ending in favour of Lord Coventry's horse by a head.

Mr. Beales has addressed the following letter to the editor of the Times : Sir,—Permit me to say a few words in reference to your remarks on Monday as to the claim made by the Reform League to the use of Hyde-park, if it be but to thank you for the calm and courteous tone in which your remarks are expressed, and which is not a little refreshing after the mere vulgar and personal abuse and ribaldry, as regards myself and others, with which the subject has been treated in other quarters. You come to the conclusion that I and my friends were offenders, though our offence was only tres pass; . but how are we shown to be offenders in the shape of trespass, or in any other shllpe ? You com plain of my giving no authurity or testimony for my view of the law ; but does not the same objec tion apply to the views put forth by, lat once ad mit, the very eminent law officers of twn successive Governments, to whose opinions you refer ? In neither of those opinions is there a single decided case or other authority in any text book or other wise quoted or referred to in support of the opi nions. While, then, they are nothing but a mere expression of opinion, the first of them, that given i n 1856—and the subsequent opinion is open to the same objections—draws no distinction whatever be tween Crown lands and the private estates of a Sovereign, or between the parks so far as they are Crown lands and other Crown lands, takes no no tice whatever of the contract entered into between the Crown and Parliament at the commencement of every reign, ignores for the most part, any dedi cation of the parks to public use, and proceeds on the assumption that the authority to close and ex clude the public from the parks is that which every landowner has to prevent the public from trespas sing on his lands. With all deference, 1 demur to this analogy between the Crown, or the Government as representing the Crown in the matter of the parks, and an ordinary landowner. The numerous acts of Parliament which have been passed in refe rence to the parks are destructive of any such analogy. The parks can neither be leased nor sold, nor, as I contend, be in any other way diverted horn the use to which they have been dedicated, and that, too, for a valuable consideration. I am happy to have your own support in ques tioning this analogy in the able observations upon it contained in the Times of the 6th of May. It is there remarked that if a private proprietor were to suffer for a series of years the community of a neigh bouring town to take the management of his park and lay out large sums on it upon an express or im plied understanding that they should have the enjoy ment of it at reasonable hours, he clearly could not suddenly terminate that right of user, if, indeed, he could terminate it at all. The writer then refers to the abolition of the nulluin tempts occurrit regi doc trine by 9 George 111., c. 16, making 60 years' pos session or enjoyment good against the Crown, at the same time observing that the doctrine itself never applied to cases of supposed or implied dedi cation or grant. To this I may add 2 and 3 Wil liam IV., c. 71, making 40 years, or even 20 years' enjoyment of any way or other easement good against the Crown. The opinion in question, that of 1856, also assumes that the Crown hag given only a conditional permission or licence to the pub lie to enjoy the park, which it is competent at any time to the Crown, or those acting in the manage ment of the park, to revoke, and upon a similar assumption the subsequent opinion of the law offi cers of last year, who do not appear disposed to go so far as their predecessors, was entirely based. But where is the evidence of any such conditional license or permission ? If there be no such evi dence, as I believe to be the fact , what is the ground upon which such conditional licence or permission is implied ? What is the implication upon the faith of which a notice could be issued supposing that notice not to have been in other respects in valid, which could have the effect of converting me into a trespasser upon the very property of which I had the enjoyment ? • There are many other questions, including those referred to by Lord Romilly, affecting the matter, not the least of them being the actual present posi tion of the legal estate, upon which I cannot now enter, and with which I have no o claim to encumber your columns. Considering the expense and delay attendant upon the litigation of such a matter, it is hardly fairly to make it a charge against me that I did not bring the question to an issue by legal pro ceedings against the Government, or others, who excluded us from the park last year. This was a course more within the means and power of the Go vernment; at all events, it is open to them now, if they consider their view of the law to be right. You call upon me and my friends to remember that all classes of society have claims to considera tion. Several days back I publicly stated in writing that we did not wish to offend even the prejudices of others, if we could avoid doing so, in insisting on what we considered an important constitutional right. I am prepared to do anything in my power towards an arrangement of the dispute, which shall be reasonable and fair towards all classes, and espe cially which may tend to remove all class rivalry or animosity. • • An ordinary meeting of this society was held on Monday evening at Burlington House. The presi dent, Sir Roderick Murchison, before the com mencement of the business, male sole observa tions on the proposed arrangements for a tenta tive search for Dr. Livingstoue. lie said the Go vernment had been induced, on the representation of the Geographical Society, to fit out an expedition for the purpose, and that a boat had been ordered to be constructed of thin steel plates and iron, espe cially adapted for navigation in shallow water, which might be taken to pieces and carried and put together again without much trouble. The expedi tion would be under the command of Mr. Young, who had accompanied Dr. Livingstone on his former explorations in command of the Pioneer._ The ob ject of the expedition would be to ascertain whether Dr. Livingstone had actually been killed at the place mentioned by his runaway porters, or whether he had passed ou into the interior. If the latter were the cage there would be great hope that he vas safe, for he:would have entered a part of the country where the natives were known to be friendly, audit might be expected that he would accomplish the object of ascertaining the level and direction of the Lake of Tanganeka, and whether it flowed north wards to the other lakes which were supposed to be the sources of the Nile. Sir Roderick expressed the hope that Dr. Livingstone is alive, Lind Mt he yet return in triumph to receive the congratulations of the society. This hope, he said, was strengthened by a letter just received from Dr. Kirke, who stated that a merchant at Zanzibar had reported he had seen a white man at the Lake of Tanganeka, and if so, that white man could be no other than Dr. Livingstone. Dr. Kirke had not, however, been able to meet with the merchant who brought that report to make more particular inquiries. si nters(uel c a Ca. SHARD rbtyarEhyßi a flar from gn e B t O mh i te:p bestt of nar whichueatdi oartpaper arn o y n ci C eo h nt pre sentedm to the society, was exhibited. He explained at some length the geographical features of the country which lies between Russia and our Indian possessions. The Himalayan mountains bound it on the south and a lofty range of mountains en close it on the north and west, in which only a few passes afford accessible approach to the interior. Along the centre of the territory, from west to east, there is a desert more or less barren which is a continuation of the desert range from Africa. Capt. Osborn pointed out the boundary of the Russian empire, which had been gradually en croaching on Chinese Tartary, and he expressed the hope that the Russians would ere long occupy the whole of that country, and introduce civilisation and Christianity, where there was at present only bar barism of the most savage kind. He said he did not apprehend anydanger to our Indian possessions front the proximity of the Russians. _ _ Sir H. RAWLINSON dissented from the opinion that it would be desirable to have the Russians close neighbours in India, and he thought it desirable to have an intervening mountainous and desert space to act as a " political buffer." Heprotested, however, against the restrictive policy which discourages com munication with thenativesbeyond our Indian fron tiers, for he considered that by entering into com mercial relations with the people, and making set tlements among them in the manner the Russians were accustomed to do, we would greatly strengthen our position. Sir R. MURCIIISON said he had been accused of Russian proclivities, but his good opinion of the people was founded on personal experience ; and he agreed with Capt. Osborn that there was no clangor to be apprehended from their occupation of Chinese Tartary. AU the Russians wanted was to improve their trade with China, and it could not endanger our possessions in the south by allowing them to have free access to China on the east. He said he had much satisfaction in stating that the council of the society had that day given their gold medal to a Russian admiral for his important additions to geographical science in Eastern Asia. Mr. Ley and Mr. Saunders also made some obser vations on the subject, and the meeting adjourned to the 27th inst., when the anniversary meeting of the society will be held. MURDER IN MONKWEARMOUTH. Another of those painful scenes of violence and blooLlshed which have unfortunately for some time past been so prevalent among the Irish population of Sunderland and neighbourhood has occurred, and in the present instance, as in two or three others, has terminated in the death of the unhappy victim. John Mason, the man assailed, was a pitman, and the murderer is Patrick Gorman, also a pitman. IVilson, a man named Kagan, and John 111. Kenna, together with a number of others, were talking to gether in Wilson-street at a quarter to 1 o'clock on Mond iy morning, when Patrick Gorman made. his appearance amongst them with an open clasp-knife in his hand, and on one of them inquiring, " What are you going to do with the knife ?" he at once rushed amongst them and dealt out blows right and left. One man was stabbed in the back; M'Kenna received a cut on the knee ; and the knife entering the soft part of Mason's thigh, caused the blood to gush out in torrents. On seeing the effects of his cowardice, Gorman instantly ran for refuge to one of thepassagesleading to Wilson-street. Two police officers were called to the spot, and conveying Mason to his home, sent for surgeons to attend to him, but so much blood had been lost by the severing of an important artery that their services were of no avail, and death ensued three hours afterwards. After the officers had assisted the man home, they proceeded in search of the prisoner, whom they found by the print of a blood-stained hand on the wall, and at once conveyed him in safety to the police station, where he stated that he was followed home by three men, knocked down and kicked, and he drew a knife to defend himself. A pocket knife was found i❑ his possession, on which were marks of blood. Mr. Elwin, a magistrate, and Mr. Abbs, the clerk, were called.to take the dying deposition, but the man died within five minutes of their arrival. The prisoner was placed before the magistrates at noon on Monday, but was remanded for the production of evidence.

The Etendurd announces that the Emperor of Russia will leave SL Petersburgh on the 29th of litity, and will arrive in Paris on the 4th of June. Izzet-Pacha, Governor of Jerusalem, has been dismissed on account of several acts of exaction. The King of Greece is already in Paris ; so are Prince Oscar of S weden and the Duke of Leuchtenberg. In a few days the King and Queen of the Belgians, the Queen of Portugal, the Prince of Wales, and the Prince and Princess Royal of Prussia will arrive. Paris is also to have the Emperor of Russia and two of his SODS, the Emperor and Empress of Austria, and perhaps the King of Prussia. The Queen and King of Spain and the Vice roy of Egypt will also honour the capital with their pre sence. " Never," says the Constitutionnel, with just pride, "never since fifty years has Paris seen within its walls such an assemblage of Princes." rADVERTISEMENT.I—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills. — Redemption from Disease.—The hidden cause, the unsus pected source of many a wasting sickness and failing strength, has been developed by these admirable pills, and the application of the ointment to the malady thus dis covered has rescued many valuable lives from a continued torture and premature end. Piles in all the many forms under which they afflict mankind, fistulas, strictures, in flammations, ulcerations, internal, external, recent, or chronic, are thus safely and speedily brought to a state of ease, and thence conducted to a lasting and perfect cure. Both ointment and pills are innocent iu composition; both aro healing, purifyirg, and comforting; both are gentle in operation and assist each other—ever helping, never hum _ ing nature's acknowJedged-lawo. • - _ Dr. CARPENTER, the Reg istrar, produced on the part of the Senate the wax king plans of the new building, and explained that it had been found im possible to produce photogr tphic representations of the elevation, the original design for which was in the library of the House of Commons. Mr. Penne thorne, the Government a eclitect, had shown a dis position to meet tile vie‘‘ s of the Senate as to the internal arrangements, but the Board of Works would not allow any interference with their eleva tion. The original design of elevation was in the classical style, which Mr. Cowper, while he was at the he id of the Department of Works, advocated, but Lord John Manners, • his successor, directed that something in the med'mval form should be prepared for consideration. This having been. done, Lord John 'Manners reque3ted him (Dr. Car penter) to let him know which style he would him, self prefer. He disclaimed any right or intention to speak on the part of the Senate ; at the FAIIIe time, he expressed his personal opinion in favour of the medrwval design. The Board of Works accepted the suggestion of the Senate as to the theatre, which, as now arrange'], would accommo date 800 persons. He thought it right to offer this. explanation, because the discussion which took place in the House of Commons conveyed a very error te _ ous impression of what actually occurred. Mr. W. P. O'REILLY, 8.A., M.P., presented the report of the annual committee, which gave a his torical account of what had taken place during the year, and, as the more important suggestions it con .ained would be made the subject of future discus sions, be would not further-advert beyond.- moving them. He then moved the reception of the report and the adoption of the following resolutions : " That it bean instruction to the annual committee for next year to co-operate,with the Senate in every effort that it may be thought desirable to make i n order to secure the full and practical recognition by the Legislature of the claims of the University to Parliamentary representation. That, in the opinion of Convocation,all persons who have passed the ma triculation examination in this University are en entitled to any electoral privileos which may be accorded to persons who have passed any senior middle-class examination of any University in the United Kingdom." He explained that the object was to obtain two members for the University, in ible.

Dr. SIBSON seconded the motion, but, on the sug gestion of a member, the resolution were separated, i n exa voting minat should qualify regard and the first, after a short discussion, was carried. On the second resolution being again read, Mr. CREAK, M.A., asked the chairman if any steps had been taken to secure a second representa tive in Parliament ? The CHAIRMAN said that a memorial went up to the Government soliciting two members, and two petitions were presented to Parliament. Lord Stan ley took charge of the petition to the House of Commons. He said he would do it to satisfy the Lord President; but, at the same time, he felt per suaded that there was no hope of their being able to get more than one member. That was the state of things when the late Government went out of office. On the new Government coming in, the feeling was that circumstances had not differed from what they were a year ago. •At the same time, when he heard it read in that morning's paper& that it was proposed in the Scotch Reform Bill to give two more members to the Scotch Universities, he felt that the University of London was surely deserving of one more member, and that it would be right and proper to bring the subject forward again. 'There was one thing the house should bear in mind. It was quite true that Scotland got addi tional members, but at the same time the Univer sities were united—Edinburgh with Aberdeen, and Glasgow with St. Andrew's. He remembered it was at one time proposed that the University of London should be united with the University of Durham. The question certainly well deserved consideration, and if he were to suggest anything it would be that the question should be re f er red to the committee as soon as possible. Mr. JULIAN GOLDSMID, iI.P., referring to the terms of the resolution, contended that to place matriculation examination upon a par with middle class examination would be to lower the character of the University, and urged that the term " middle. class" was objected to by the Univer sities, and by those who were promoting those examinations. The Rev. P. SMITH said they were not discussing the question as if it were a fancy franchise. Matri culation examinations were a test auswering to that of on to the degree. amiddleclassexamination t o those who did not go pgateld.d as th b a e t ing th t e ho te t r e m rm " u m se id d d i l n e had C t b a e t e ß n m a A d N o cla T ss h " e the bill. The resolution was then carried. On the motion of Mr. JESSELL, seconded by Dr. MACKENZIE, it was resolved that the Senate should be requested to concur in amending the standing orders to the effect that every member should pay an annual fee of 55., or a life composition of £l. Notice of motion had been given that Convoca tion should accept the Supplemental Charter dated April, 1867, but the CHAIRMAN explained that the Charter not having yet been sent down to the University, a special meeting would be called to consider it. Mr. J. ROBSON then moved that it be an instruc tion to the annual committee for the ensuing year to adopt such steps as they may deem advisable in furtherance of the great object of obtaining for the University a suitable building. The question raised in this resolution was as to what would be a suitable building. They bad been told that they had no right to interfere with the elevation, but he thought that to be most preposterous. It certainly was ab surd that the Senate should be required to take what ever building might be prepared for them. The annual committee had dissipated the delusion, and had come to the conclusion that that idea was alto gether erroneous. He feared that if they did not bring Parliamentary influence to bear upon the ques tion they would be provided with a building which would be an object. of ridicule throughout the country. Dr. PYE SMITH said theUn simplicity,oug htiversityand haveto butc a u e possessingscheme dignity,of construction proposed would re pose,not have h any one of those qualities so far as its ex ternal aspect was concerned. He was, however, of opinion that the internal arrangements would be found quite suitable for all the purposes of a Uni versity. Mr. CREAK, M.A., asked whether any opportunity was to be given to Convocation to express its opinion in reference to the proposed University building. The CHAIRMAN explained that the Crown h pr tt o h - ee pro vided the building , bu t had taken the opinion it of the University University as to t he accommodation re q uire d. Par liament, however , dema nded last y e ar that the de signs should be laid before the House of Comm ons, and that in the meantime a ll proceeding building should be stayed. The drawings were now in the library of the House of Commons, but what efo would be the greshtutltheh e be c s o t ul c d ot n ir o s t e say. would in b the mean while; he co t utittee to canvas s th e H ouse of the annual Com mons. If they could exercise any influence at all they must go for it to the House of Commons. Mr. P. SMITH moved as a rider to the motion the words, " and endeavour to obtain an opportunity for exhibiting the proposed plans the building to th e members of Convocation."and elevations of The resolution was then put in its amended form, and, after some discussion, was agreed to. Some other business, chiefly of a formal character, was then disposed of, and the Convocation ad journed,
