This Office unites the benefit of a mutual association with the security of a Proprietary Company, and offers to the Assured amongst others the following advantages : 1. Credit until death, with privilege of payment at any time previously, for one-half of the premiums for the first five years upon Assurances for the whole of life ; a plan peculiarly advan tageous for securing Loans. 2. In Lean transactions, the lender secured against the risk of the b-Trovver going out of Europe. 3. Sums assure to become payable at given ages, or death, if previous. 4. Policies indefeasible ; fraud alone, not error, vitiating them, and in case the Renewal Premium remain unpaid, the Assurance may be revived at any time within Six Months, upon satisfactory proof of health, and payment of a trifling fine. 5. Officers in the Army and Navy, and persons residing abroad, or proceeding to any part of the world, may be as sured upon equitable terms. 6. Immediate, Survivorship, and Deferred Annuities granted; and Endowments for Children, and every other mode of pro vision for families arranged.

The decided superiority of its plan, and its claim to public preference and support, have been proved incontestably by its extraordinary and unprecedented success. ASSURANCES MAY EITHER BE EFFECTED BY PARTIES ON THEIR OWN LIVES, OR BY PARTIES INTERESTED THEREIN ON THE LIVES OF OTHERS. The effect of an Assurance on a person's own life is to create at once a Property in Reversion, which can by no other means be realised. Take, for instance, the case of a person at the age of thirty, who, by the payment of 51. 3s. 4d. to the Britannia Life Assurance Company, can become at once pos essed of a bequeathable property, amounting to 1,0001., sub ect only to the condition of his continuing the same payment quarterly during the remainder of his life—a condition which may he fulfilled by the mere saving of EIGHT SHILLINGS weekly in his expenditure. Thus, by the exertion of a very slight degree of economy—such, indeed, as can scarcely be felt as an inconvenience, he may at once realise a capital of 1,0001., which he can bequeath or dispose of in any way he may think proper.

A Court was held yesterd a y, when the Lord Mayor late Lord Mayor for his upright and impartial conduct presided for the first time. was carried unanimously, and or d e red to be tran scribed upon vellum, and presented in due form. A petition was then presented from Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey, praying that the election for high Bailiff of Southwark may be declared void, on the ground that it had not been conducted according to the usual rules of the Court, and that the petitioner had evidence to prove that he had a majority in his favour. After some discussion on the motion for affixing the Seal of the City to the appointment of Mr. Pritchard, the question was carried by a large majority, and Mr. Pritchard was received as High Bailiff of the Borough of Southwark. 7 es t min t s li e r DEATH IN TEE PENITENTIARY.—Mr. Hi ggs , th e , held an inquest in the 71 Pon the body of Mary Ann Crawley, aged 22, one o f t h e i nmates. It appeared that the deceased had been tried at the Southampton Sessions, in Oct ober, 1841 , on a charge of felony, and ‘li Coroner nbank for Penitentiary, sen t e nced to one calendar month' s imprisonment, and transportation for ten years. The sentence of transportation was commuted ; she was, therefore, re moved from the convict-shi p Royal Admiral, and re ceived into the Penitentiary on the 18th of April, 1842. Her term would have been up in 1845. Wm. Bailey, M.D., surgeon to th e es t a bli s hment, said that the deceased was admitted t o th e i n fi rm ary on the 30th of August, labouring und er d ysen t er y ; s he was, as he thought, recovering, but again relapsed, and died on Wednesday last. A post mortem examina tion was made of the body, and th e b owe l s were found much inflamed, with ulceration in several parts. Deceased was very healthy when admitted. Dr. Bailey further added that he had lately been trying to investigate the cause o i f the pr esent great morta lity in the prison, and his impression that it was solely caused by the very bad site, was, he believed, a cor rect one. The grounds . about the p r i son were fre quently inundated at high tides, but he believed some thing was going to be done to remedy this evil. Mr. Higgs read a statistical report, from which it appeared that for a series of years preceding 1841 the deaths averaged six each year, but in 1841 these had in creased to fourteen ; and, already, this ye ar , th e num ber was eighteen. Since t he o p en ing of the prison, in 1817, there have been 304 deaths, three •fourths of which have been from N dysentery an d di arr h cea. — Verdict—" Died by the isitation of God."

PROPOSED VOTE OF CENSURE ON TIIE LORI) PROVOST OF EDINBURG 11. Mr. Local—Before proceeding with the ordinary business, I have to state that a number of my col leagues have imposed upon me the disagreeable duty —but not the less a duty, because it is disagreeable— of laying Wore the Council the customary notice of the following motion : " The Lord Provost having, on the evening of Monday the 14th current, presided at a dinner inti mately connected (as to its origin and purpose) with certain proceedings at the Municipal Board, as to which (as.was well known) there existed a marked difference of opinion among its members ; and, whilst so acting, having himself publicly spoken, and permitted others to speak, of the Magistrates and other Members of Council in a way not merely offensive to their feelings and derogatory to their character, but directly calcu lated most injuriously to affect their usefulness as public functionaries—he it resolved, that this Council is of opinion that, inasmuch as the Lord Provost is their official president when met for the dispatch of public business, and their recognised representative and guardian on all other occasions, his Lordship, in acting as aforesaid, did act in violation of his official and constitutional duty ; and has thereby forfeited the confidence of this Council." Mr. MAcrAur.AN, after making his comments upon this motion, during which he asserted that the Lord Provost had make those remarks as a private indivi dua4.and denouncing the attempt to interfere with him as a gross infringement of the liberty of the sub ject, moved "That in respect the motion of Mr. Logan is an interference with the liberty of the subject, and ultra vires of the Council, it be not entertained." Mr. WurrE seconded the motion. Finally the Council divided upon the question —Mr. Macfarlan's motion or not—when it was carried " not," by 18 to 10. Against this decision Mr. AIACFARLAN protested, and took instruments, in his own name and in the name of all who should adhere to hint, for reasons to be afterwards given in. THE MARKETS.

We have received the following letter. Con sidering the important subject it refers to, and the high authority it quotes, we publiSh it with out reluctance, notwithstanding the blame it casts on us : WORDSWORTH AND THE OXFORD TRACTARIAN S. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin, —Reading the lately published volume of our great philosophic poet, Wordsworth (" Poems of Early and Late Years"), I was struck with his notice (p. 402) of the present Religious Movement, erroneously (for it is of no locality) ascribed to the influence of the writings of the Oxford divines, but, in reality, gene rated by a wide-spread feeling of disgust in the public mind at the meagre and unsatisfactory nature of mo dern ultra-Protestantism, witliks self-indulgent prac tices, its effete and mawkish divinity; and the absence of all self-denial and high and ennobling charac teristics, from its system. This conviction has been deepened by the revival of the writings of our elder divines—Hooker, Hammond,_ Bull , Taylor, Beveridge, &c., those giants of our theological literature—and the feeling is exercising a vast and increasing influence over the more earnest and deeper minds of the United States, as well as of Great Britain and her depen dencies. Nov, I could not help contrasting the calm and reverential tone of the poet's observations—(bear with me if I speak plainly, a-s I feel strongly)—with the flippant character of some of your late remarks on the same subject. May I, then, submit to your con sideration, and that of your readers, the opinion of William Wordsworth—a name dear to all true Eng lish hearts, a witness most. unexceptionable, as a lay man and a bystander, whose sole interest can be to vindicate that sound truth to, which he has dedicated a long and beautiful life :—"lt would be ungenerous not to advert to the religious movement that has made itself felt, more or less strongly, throughout the Eng lish Church—a movement that takes for its first prin ciple a devout deference t o the voice of Christian an tiquity. It is not my office to pass judgment on questions of theological detail ; but my own repug nance to the spirit and system of Romanisrn has been so repeatedly, and, I trust, feelingly expressed, that I shall not be suspected of a leaning that way, if I do not • join in the grave charge, thrown out, perhaps,- in the heat of controversy, against the learned and pious men to whose labours I allude. I speak apart from contro versy ' • but, with strong faith in the moral temper which could elevate the present by doing reverence to the past, I would draw cheerful auguries for the English Church from this movement, as likely to re store among us a tone of piety, more earnest and real than that produced by the mere formalities of the un derstanding, reusing, n a degree which I cannot but lament, that its own temper and judgment shall be controlled by triose of antiquity."—Worinswou m I am, Sir, your obedient servant, Nov. 21, 1542. CANDIDUS. We must, in justice to ourselves, deny the accu sation ofour cri tic. What he probably mistakes for flippancy, is a sincere conviction different from his own. The writer he quotes, and h e himself, have, and the authors he alludes to had, a sincere reverence for the English Church; we have as sincere a conviction that it is totally unworthy of respect. What does the writer himself say of it ? That " ultra - Protestantism is meagre and unsa tisfactory; it is self-indulgent ; its divinity is effete and mawkish; its system lacks all high and en nobling characteristics." Let us add, that the Church is keheat on the public understanding. It receives from the nation an imuce‘nse income, under the pretence of instructin g the people, and devotes it to maintaining a proud and worthless I priesthood in princely magnificence. It leaves the people in the darkest ignorance, or rather it labours to plunge them in ignorance, lest they should learn their rights and their duties, which are totally incompatible with priestly power. We marvel at the mind of our Correspondent, which can think of ultra-Protestantism as he thinks, and reproach us for speaking without re verence for such a worldly fungus, planted on the religious feelings of mankind. The celebrated author he quotes, in common with most reflectieg men, repudiates Romanist on his own showing, ultra-Protestantism is rather worse than Rotnanism, end thus there is "wide-spread disgust in the public mind," and a "religious movement in England and her de pendencies." But when the public mind has been so imposed on by ultra-Protestantism and Romanism, each in its turn, is there any flip pancy in holding back our confidence from the Oxford divines? They may be very sincere, for aught we know, and so may JOE SMITH, the Mormon prophet. It happens, however, un fortunately for both, that great worldly advan tages will be the consequence of their success, JOE SMITII will have numerous contributing followers; and the Oxford divines, becoming paramount in the Church, will be the recipients of its vast wealth. We, then, are quite as sin cere in our disbelief of the great merit ascribed to the Oxford divines and their writings, as our Correspondent is sincore in his belief; and it is no more flippant in us to express our want of rei gt newhe m measured s wo s r p d e s c i t s l i t4 a r it e a it t is re fo ve r r l e ii n n c i e to foi s . movement and its authors. CANDIDUS refers to HOOKER, and the other giants of our theological literature, few or none of whom flourished since the Elector of HANO VER ascended the Throne. They were the im mediate children of the Reformation, and of those troublesome times which followed it. They had not seen the Anglican Church in quiet pos session of all its revenues and honours for a cen tury, and a half, and they had bright hopes, which we know have been completely disap pointed, that it would be a blessing to the nation. Had they seen the ministers of the English Church slumbering in ease on their ye. vet cushions for more than a century, busy. only in plundering the endowments of the poor, and flattering the rich, that they might to be protected in their iniquity, promoting no useful kno - Medge, but .trying to impede its advancement, and bursting with envy, spite, and anger when they were com pelled to exert themselves by the success of Dissent,—had those strong-minded and honest men seen ultra-Protestanism, as described by CANDIDUS, they would have turned from it and from the Church with greater disgust than does the - public at present, and would - ,have repu diated, as we do, the notion of the Oxford divines, that to establish the influence of re ligion the clergy must go backward, and take refuge in the ignorance, superstition, and vice of semi-Papism. If those giants referred to Christian antiquity, it was to expose the errors of Rome, and justify ultra-Protestantism ; the Oxford divines refer to it to discard Pro testantism, to throw dirt on the Reformation, and to justify that prostration of the understand ing before the priesthood which was the master vice of Rome, and is the most injurious of all superstitions. Fetiche worship is a mere idolatry of wood and stones, which inflict no injury on their devotees; the worship of the priesthood is an idolatry of active, worldly, cunning, tyrannous men, who use the power it bestows to debase others and aggrandise themselves. Let us, in conclusion, say one wordabout the an. tiquity Mr. WORDSWORTH honours, and which is described as flippant in us not to reverence. With all respect to our great living Contemporary we must obserVe that the ancients were only men like ourselves. Their thoughts and their expres sions, except as they were more true, are no more to be honoured than the thoughti of living men ; but of that relative truth we must be the judges. Over them we have many advantages. In rela tion to them we are the aged and hoary men of the world. We possess whatever was preserved oftheir experience, of the experience of all men betwixt them and us, and we possess our own ex perience. While to them (and the more ancient the people the more correct is the remark) almost all phenomena, both of the external world and of the mind, were irregular, unconnected, and extra ordinary,to us who have the hoarded experience of so many more ages, the bulk of those phenomena, both of the physical world and the mind, however minute, as the cysts 'of little insects which constitute diseases of the skin, or however vast, like the motions of the comets, are all regu larly connected by one chain of cause and effect, methodical and harmonious. For them things were marvels, wonders, inexplicable, inspiration, which we know to be and to have been part of the regular and ordered course of that system which has endured in unity, or oneness, with all time changing and succeeding generations of men. Having, therefore, so much more knowledge and experience than the ancients, we must confirm to think and assert, though it may be called flip pant by the priesthood, whose constant endea vour it is to vaunt, antiquity and depress living men, that no useful reformation can be obtained for the Church by consulting the works of anti quity. The generation have seen its errors; we know pretty well what it can do and what i cannot do ; we know, much better than the ancients, what is required by our society; and we tell the public to seek counsel rather from the living than the dead. ..

THE FURY or FREE TRADE. --- We have been contented with insisting that it was the duty of our own Government to our own people to abolish the re strictions on the importation of corn ; the Standard, which has suddenly become quite enraptured with free trade, and sees in it the means of cementing na tional unions, and of guaranteeing the observance of treaties, far more efficacious than the wishes of a Go- Nernment, actually preaches to the surrounding na tions that they may make war on Great Britain for excluding their corn and alienating herself from them. The treaty with China, obtained by war, it says, is " such as the society of civilised nations have a natural right to impose upon any people perversely alienating themselves from the great family of mankind, even though such perverse people had given no other ground of quarrel than their alienation." Our people do not, indeed, alienate themselves from the great family of mankind, but the Government, under the influence of the landlords, tries to alienate them; and thus the words of the land lord's instrument convict the landlords of deserving the hostility of other nations by their perverseness in shutting out the trade which other nations and our people would willingly enter into.

RAILWAY LIBERALITY.--Having occasionally con sidered it our duty to the public to take exception to some of the proceedings of the Directors of the London and Greenwich Railway Company, we gladly seize an opportunity of givi ng pu bli c i ty to an act o f the board which is worthy of imitation by the Direc tors of other railways. The Company, having hitherto conveyed the Post -office letter-bags between London and Deptford and Greenwich for two deliveries a day, was lately applied to by the Post-office authori ties for the terms upon which they would convey the bags for a third daily delivery ; to which the board made answer, that for an additional payment of only 301. per annum they would be ready to carry as many bags, to and fro daily, at the several times of the running of the trains, as might be desired. This liberal offer was at once accepted; and Greenwich and Deptford will, in consequence, on and after Satur day next, have the benefit of four instead of two daily deliveries of letters: A NEW ZEALAND NEWSPAPER.—We have been favoured with the first two numbers of the Maori Gazette, a newspaper published at Auckland, in the native language. It is entitled Te Karere 0 Nui Tireni, 11 7 a, to Ra!rana, 1 mea Kitt taia. It is printed on a sheet of foolscap, and each number contains some original articles, and several letters, which we understand are the production of natives who have been instructed by the Church missionaries. We will endeavour to get one or two of the letters translated, in order that our readers may be able to form an opi nion of its contents. The effect which this publica tion, if judiciously edited, will have upon the minds of the native population of New Zealand, is likely to be very beneficial ; and it is highly creditable to the Government to have started such a publication, the first of the kind in the history of colonisation. —Syd ney Herald, June 14.
