King William-street, London. The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is consistent with perfect security. One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders; three-fourths to the former, and one .fourth to the latter. The remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of the succeeding years. and thus to provide against unforeseen con( ingencies. The first division of profits took place on the 13th of May, 1840, when a reduction of 60 per cent. was declared on the current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti cipation. The second division of profits was in May, 1841, when a similar reduction wasagain declared. The following table will show the operation of the reduction made by the Society : Age when Policy was issued. Date of Policy. May 1835.

This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most perfect security in an ample paid-up Capital, and in the great success which has attended it, since its commence ment i❑ 1834. In 1841 the Company declared an addition to the Share holders of one-half of their Stock, and also added 2/. per Cent. per Annum, from the date of the policies to those par ties who had insured with Profits. The Premiums nevertheless are on the most moderate scale, and only a moiety need be paid for the first five years, where the Insurance is for life. The amount of bonus added to policies since the commence ment ,of the Company in March 1834, to the 31st December 1840, is as follows : Sum Assured. Time Assured.

The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale com patible with the security of the Assured, and the stability of the Company, thereby, in effect, giving to every Policy .

The British Queen steamer, now the. property of' the Belgian Government, arrived at Cowes on Monday Prom New York, and has brought papers up to the th inst. She made the passage irr about fifteen days, and brings intelligence eight days later: than that fur nished by the Acadia steamer, which arrived on the 13th. The intelligence fr 6 the United States is highly satisfactory, The _North Eastern Boundary Question is already arranged to the satisfaction of all parties. The Creole case is settled, and that of the Caroline is in the course of adjustment. It is also stated that the Right of Search Question has been amicably- disposed of. The whole of these important questions, we learn, I will be first arranged, and then subinitte4 to the Senate simultaneously ; and it is generally believed that they will not meet with any opposition; as the majority of that body are desirous of terminating these .affairs in an amicable way. Nothing official had, transpired respecting the negotiations between Lord Ashburton and Mr. Webster, but as they both have full powers to settle - every point,. and have been 'instructed by their respective Governments to bring the matter to a peaceful conclusion, there is now no reason to doubt that they have been completely suc cessful. We congratulate our own countrymen as well as the people of the United States on this happy result, so creditable, and at the same time so bene cial, to two great nations. The Senate passed the Tariff Bill on the . sth instant, by a vote of 25 to 23 ; but it was anticipated that the President would veto it in a few days. " The cotton and corn crops," says the New York Herald, "are abundant, and Heaven is smiling on the industrious and deserving.; Among the passengers by the British Queen is Mr. Silas, Mr. Stillwell, United States Marshal for the district of New York, who has come over as a special messenger from Washington, but on matters in no way connected with Lord Ashburtcn's mission. He has gone on to Antwerp, and will go to Paris be fore he visits this country. The Warspite, Captain Lord John Hay, is still at New York. The following are extracts from the American journals : STATE OF THE COUNTRY. NEW YORK, AUG. 7.—Upon this sub ec there is not much that can be said to send out by the British Queen for the information of our numerous European renders. We are without a tariff, without a currency, with out credit, and should be much better off if; for a few months, we were without a Congress. The Tariff Bill has passed both Houses ; and as it still contains the distribution clause, the President will veto it. Still the Attorney-General thinks that the present law is sufficient to enable the Government to collect the re venues under it. In the mean time all' duties are paid under protest. Congress will adjourn in a delicious row in two or three weeks, perhaps in less tune. We hope so; but not before the Senate passes the treaty with Great Britain. In th 3 meantime all the interested parties are satis fied with the treaty, and Lord Ashburton is preparing to return home. A few miserable politicians and office beggars are trying to form a third political party, but it will not succeed. The cotton and corn crops are abundant, and Heaven is smiling on the industrious and deserving. In the meantime Satan takes care of his own in Wall-street, and is stirring up the elements of strife in Congress. (Correspondence of the New York Herald.) PASSING OF THE TARIFF. WASHINGTON, FRIDAY E VENING.—The Senate passed the Tariff Bill this afternoon, precisely as it came from the House, by a vote of 25 to 23 ; Messrs. Preston, Rives, and Graham voting with the twenty democrats against it—Mr. Henderson, absent ; and Mr. Berrien refusing to vote. It will go to the Pre sident to-marrow, and early in the week a veto may be expected. A great row will then take place, and efforts will be made to adjourn at once, but a Revenue Bill of some sort will no doubt be passed. The House cleared the private calendar of all Bills to which no objection was made. TREATY WITH GREAT BRITAIN.—It gives US great pleasure to announce 'that everything connected with this important affair is now in a fair way to be speedily and amicably settled. The last of the Bri tish Commissioners from Maine passed through this city yesterday, on his way home from Washington. He states that all the details of the treaty, as we have before given them, have all been • agreed to, and signed by all parties interested, and nothing remains but the ratification of the treaty by the Senate, which is expected to take place now in a very few days. Indeed, so confident do all parties seem about this business, that even in Canada the price of wild lands has doubled within the last two weeks; and emigrants and settlers who before were fearful to locate themselves for fear of a war, are rushing to the land offices, and vieing with each other as to who shall become permanently settled in the colony the soonest. This is a good sign ; and, in addition to the above, we learn that Governor Kent, of-Maipe„, who is still in Washington, has written letters home, expressing his full conviction that the Boundary Treaty- will - be confirmed by the United States Sata`e. BALTIMORE, Auu. G.—From gentlemen who ar rived from Washington last evening, I learn that ° there are rumours that Lord Ashb ur t on h as d e t er inined upon leaving the city in a very few day. 4, preparatory to his return to Europe, and that- the Boundary difficulties between the two nations had been posi tively and amicably settled. The following, in the American of this morning, seems to be confirmatory of what I have heard : " Gentlemen who have just returned from Wash ington state that rumours were very current there, and generally believed, that Lord Ashburton would leave that city, in a few days, preparatory to his de parture for England, the terms of the treaty which he was sent to this country to negotiate having been con cluded to his satisfaction. It was also stated that Mr. Webster designed to resign his office as Secretary of State soon after the adj mrnment of Congress. Of course we do not know what credit is to be attached to these reports, but, as the same rumours have reached us before from other sources, t is possible that there may be some truth in them." A decline of 50 cents per barrel has taken place in flour during the past week. The market is now well stored, and I roward-street standard brands can be had at 5 dots. 5) cents. per barrel ; City-mills too, has fallen to 5 dots. 87f cents.; Susquehanna, 5 dots. 62f cents. Inspections of the week are 10,059 bar rels and 324 half-barrels, besides 82 barrels rye flour, and 259 corn mehl."l Wheat is corning in plentifully, and rules froth 1 dol. to I dol. 15 cents., according to quality. Beef cattle in demand, and sales were made at 4 dots. to 5 dots. per 1001 b. Whiskey, in hhds., 25 cents., in barrels 26 cents. The matter of the treaty i 4 not yet decided, and many fears are entertained upon the subject. The navigation of the St. John's, said to be given up to the United States, is a very equivocal grant. Outside of the line at which the United States boundary strikes the St. John's is a fall of 75 feet, which renders the river utterly unnavigable. The navigation is pot and cannot be made available without the cession of the land on one side of it. This fact has hitherto been concealed from the public, but is known to the Senate.

The prices are, however, tending downwards, under the double influence of the appre, ciating currency at he leading points of purchase, and the prospect of a large crop. The letters from those points of the large cotton districts which, cen trally situated, are favourable for observation, coming from intelligent and disinterested parties, represent the growing crop as the most abundant ever yet pro duced. The full extent of this observation would carry the crop to, say, 2;300,000 bales ; but it hr.* been calculated heretotbre that the physical power available to " picking out" could not realise so large a quantity by 100,000 b a l es . It i s very early as yet to form estimates of the crop, as so much depends upon casualties between now and October.

TERRIBLE RIOTS IN PHILADELPHIA. On Monday last a most terrible riot took place in Philadelphia, of which we glean the following details from the papers : Monday was the day appointed for a grand tempe rance (coloured) procession and festival. The pro cession started from the Hall in Bedford-street, near Eighth, the head of it being composed of several tall, athletic negroes, who, vain perhaps of their physical strength, were rather rude to the white persons who stood around the doors of the building, or.got casually in their way. The boys soon began to shout after the procession. The latter grew restless. Demonstrations of ill-nature were manifested on both sides, until the crowd reached Eighth and Lombard- s t ree t, w h en t h e coloured Mar shals, it is said, commenced riding down with their horses those who stood in the • road. Of course a fight commenced, which was continued at intervals until the arrival of the procession at the 'Wharton Market, where some new difficulty arose about the removal of a cab. At Pourth and Ship. pen-street, a butcher-boy knocked a mulatto down with a leg of mutton, and another•butcher flung some liver at one of the marshals. The negroes retaliated. A general fight now hegan. The marshals , wete , dragged. off their horses. Brickbats and other mis siles flew in every direction. Broken heads and bloody noses were seen in abundance. The proces sion made out at length to roach Fifth and Shippen- Street, and the Pasayunk-road, when another assault •was made on it by the now increased mob, and a ban ner—on which a slave was represented bursting his fetters - , with the motto, " Death or liberty !" over him, and a fire in the distance—torn all to pieces and trampled in the dirt. Here the procession had to give way, and after defending itself awhile, fled in every direction. The fire-bells now rang, and the firemen collected. The negroes of the vicinity threatened vengeance, and fight after fight of the most bloody description took place between the whites and blacks. Several per sons were severely and some dangerously wounded on both sides. The police officers of Moyamensing were soon on the ground. The Mayor of the city and his officers arrived at the same time. The Sheriffand his posse attended, and for awhile tranquillity was re stored. A great number of persons were arrested of both colours for examination, and notwithstanding the mobs that still hung about the scenes of the late melee and threatened to demolish and burn down the negro church, the Hall in Bedford-street, and other houses, it was thought that all apprehension of danger was over. A number of the ringleaders were arrested and put in confinement. Officer Whisne, of Moyamensing, arrested one desperate character, who, it is believed, stabbed one of the white men. He is a deaf and dumb negro. • In the course .of the afternoon, prison waggon after prison waggon load of rioters went from the police office to the county prison. The Mayor disposed of the cases with despatch, binding over or committing the prisoners for further hearing. Jacob Keyser, Ed ward Herrick, Samuel Montgomery, Samuel Lusky, and John Hamilton (whites), were ordered to give bail, the two former in 2,000 dol. each, and the latter in 1,000 dol. each. Keyser and Hamilton got hail ; the others went below. Henry Johnson (coloured) was required to give bail in 2,500 dol. John John son (a negro) was ordered to give bail in 4,000 do). This prisoner was arr e sted i n the riot, with a knife in his hand. Quarter to 8 P.m.—Eleven wounded—three white and eight coloured—at the Ho'spital. Eight P.m.—Six prisoners have .just been brought in at the police office. Mr. E. D. Woodruff, citizen policeman, one of the officers having them in charge, coatless and badly cut in the head. We left him get ting his wounds dressed. 14 P. M.-It had been anticipated every moment since eight o'clock, that fire would be set to some of the public buildings or private dwellings belonging to some of the blacks. Sure enough just as the clock struck nine, the fire bells pealed out the note of alarm, and a lurid glare in the heavens told that a conflagra tion was going on. We ran down towards South- UNITED STATES. 1841. 1842. Increase.

The arrivals during the same period were 3,436 bales. In prices there is no noticeable change, although they are rather in favour of purchasers.

CANADA. All is quiet and happy in this part of the world, Lady Bagot has given a grand drawing-room i n Quebec. A g rea t num b er of distinguished ladies and gentlemen were presented to her. Her dr e s s was re markable for a l a rge, di s pl a y of Jewels in her tiara and stomacher. One of the Papers has the following remarks about the family : " One general expression of congratulation was heard that the province, had now at the head of society the lady of the Governor-General, who, accompanied by a family of daughters, cannot fail in giving a tone to the manners of her circle, which will shed the most beneficial influence on the deportment and morals of that numerous class who borrow their examples from the great, and are prone to fashion their conduct on the example set by their superiors in station, more es pecially of those who hold the first position in the land." IRON STEAALER.—An iron steamer, for the use of street, and discovered that the new Smith's Hal (negro) in Lombard-street, just below Seventh, was in a blaze. This Hall was not quite finished. It was being built by the rich negro lumber merchant, Ste phen Smith, at an expense of several thousand dollars, and was the place at which the grand coloured con vention was to have been held on the last Tuesday of this month. In about half an hour the building was a mass of ruins. iof P. M.—The bells are now tolling for another fire. The light is intense. The coloured Presbyterian Church, in St. Mary-street, between Sixth and Seventh, hag been fired, and is now a mass o f fl ames . < The surrounding buildings and the contents of the church, the firemen are saving. 11 P. M.—The church is burned down. The walls are yet standing bare, naked, and desolate. Not a negro is to be seen in any direction ; all have fled or hidden. The riot has entirely subsided. The Mayor has just visited the scene of disorder, and the first regiment of City Volunteers are , patrolling about in squads to preserve the peace, having been ordered out by Major-General Patterson. Fifteen of the rioters are confined in the Moyamen sing Hall. WEST INDIA MAILS. IMPORTANT TO MERCHANTS.

Svc/tn.-The' dulness in the B. P. Sugar market has increased, and the arrivals having been large since our last report, have caused importers generally to be more disposed to realise, and they have submitted to a reduction on former rates of 6d to Is per cwt. To-day the demand was limited for West India Muscovado Sugar, both fur the scale and pan, and the prices accepted were in some. cases 6d per cwt under those of Friday ; the pur chases, including the auction, are only 400 hhds and trcs, but as the trade are getting bare of stock, a better de mand may be expected to take place for Sugar shortly. A public sale of 117 hhds 2 trcs Barbadoes Sugar this afternoon went off quietly, and at prices 6d per cwt under those of the last auction ; the whole, however, was dis posed of, fine yellow at 65s to 67s 6d, good 63s to 64s 6d, mid 62s to 62s Gd per cwt. REFINED.-To-day the Refined Sugar market was in a very dull state, and 77s the nearest quotation for Standard Lumps. Treacle is cheaper ; common selling ht 23s Gd, patent 24s to 25s 6d, best old 29s to 29s 3d, and golden syrup 27s 6d to 29s 6d. Bastards and Pieces were, however, in good request. Bonded Crushed Su gar is 25s 6d, but at that rate there are several purchasers. MAITRITIVS.-Prices have declined is for brown - arid yellow, and Gd per cwt for the better sorts ; good to fine yellow at 628 6d to 655, mid 59s 6cl to 625, low 58s 6d to 595, good to flue brown 57s 6d to 58s 6d, and low 49s per cwt. The accounts received from the Mauritius state that the export of Sugar to the 30th April, had been 549,966 bags and .1,833 casks, or 74,309,179 lbs. Five vessels were loading for London, and were expected to sail in x feW days. EA ST INDIA.- This afternoon the public sales consisted `of 2,071 bags Bengal Sugar, 1,931 bags Siam, and 4,708 bags Manila ; B e n ga l went at steady rates-low yellow at 565, good white 678 to 67s 6d, middling 658 to 65s 6d, good yellow 62s to 635, fine 63s 6d to 64s 6d, damp and washed of various sorts 595 to 67s 6d. Siam brought an advance of 6d ; good white fetched 21s 6d, mid 20s 6d. Manilla went rather dearer ; fine brown at 16s 6d to 17s, damp and washed 14s 6d to 16s, and sweepings 14s. FOREIDN.-To-day holders of all descriptions of Fo reign Sugar manifested firmness, and the demand was excellent ; 266 boxes white, 933 boxes yellow Havari nab, and 305 hhds Porto Rico were submitted to public competition ;-Havannah was all sold and the biddings were animated, the prices paid were fully equal to those of the last sale ; good mid white went at 29s 6d to 30s, mid 28s to 295, low 25s to 275, damaged 22s Gd to 26s 6d, Tar damaged 255, mid sound yellow 17s to 18s 6d, low 16s to 17s, slightly damaged 16s 6d to 18s, damaged 15s to 17s 6d ; Porto Rico went as follows :-fine yel low at 19s, good 17s 6d to 18s, mid 16s 6d to 17s per cwt. being rather above last sale's rates. MOLASSES.-For West India rather higher rates have been given i • Antigua fine at 31s, goo d 30 s, St. Kitts mid 265, Barbadoes fine 325, Demerara mid 26s to 26s 6d. Bengal Syrup at 22s to 245, and Foreign Molasses at 7s- 6d to 8s per cwt. This afternoon for West India Molasses 80s 6d was paid for a parcel of mid Barbadoes just arrived.
