The acknowledged su periority of Mr. CLAUDET'S PORTRAITS is due to the surprising RAPIDITY of the PROCESS, which gives to the Likeness the pleasing and unconstrained expression which the Sitter can only assume during an INSTANTANEOUS OPERATION—to the introduction of Back Grounds (EX CLUSIVELY HIS OWN), representing Landscapes, Jute tior of apartments, &c., which produces the most PICTU RESQUE EFFECT—and to the mode of durably fixing the image, so that it cannot fade or change colour, cr be easily rubbed olf. SOLICITORS—Messrs. J. L. Bicknell and J. C. Lethbridge, 25, Alain , 7don-street, Westminster, The object of this Society is to afford to the Assured all the benefits of Life Assurance at a great reduction in the rates of premium, and also some further advantages peculiar to this In stitution, with the guarantee of a numerous and opulent pro prietary, and a subscribed capital of 530,0001. To accomplish this important result, there are two plans for assurance—by the first (Table 1) the rates of premium are re duced to the lowest scale compatible with the safety and sta bility of the Society, thereby in effect giving to the assured an immediate and certain bonus. EXAMPLE.—TAELE ANNUAL PREMIUMS FOR THE ASSURANCE OF £lOO. Age. I Ono Year. Mr. CLAUDET has also a peculiar process by which Na tural Colours are imparted. ge - verr Years.

To professional men and others whose incomes are progressive, and in loan transactions where the debt is gradually reduced, this principle of charging one-half the premium for the first seven years will be found to be particularly advantageous to the Assured. Assurances may be effected every day with the least possible trouble to the party.

(From the New York courier and Inquirer of March 19.) pursuant to the call published in most of the morning papers, a very large number of persons assembled in the large room in the Exchange yesterday afternoon, to consider the propriety of trging upon our representatives in Congress the necessity of prompt and decisive action upon the great questions of interest and importance to the whole country. The meeting was organised by the appointment of the fol lowing officers :—Benjamin Strong, Chairman. Vice-Presi lents—Anson G. Phelps, N. T. Hubbard, Henry Suydam, Hiram Ketsham, Henry Wyckoff, Wm. Churchill. John Thomas. Secretaries—Schuyler Livingston, Was. B. Dean. The meeting was addressed by Hugh Maxwell and Hiram Ketsharn, ffeirs., but want of space compels us to omit any further mention of the proceedings, except to say that the an nexed resolutiors, read by Mr. Maxwell, were unanimously adopted ; and, on the motion of General Talmadge, a copy was ordered to be sent to both branches of the Legislature of this State, as being equally amenable to public censure with Congress. Whereas, the present condition of our country, as exem plified in the general derangement and depreciation of the country, in the deep distrust and difficulty which prevail in the business community, in the consequent depression and distress of nearly all the industrious classes, in the continued fall of public and corporate securities, and in the deplorably dis honoured credit, not only of :State Governmsnts, but also of that oft ho Federal Union, loudly appeals to the patriotism, pride, and intelligence of Americans as a self-governing people. And whereas, the condition of our country is rendered yet more urgent by the ominous cloud which impends over our fo reign relations, and by which our domestic embarrassments may speedily become aggravated into frightful obstacles to our national security and honour. Therefore we, the merchants, traders, and other citizens of New York, here assembled, with a solemn sense of the mo mentous interests and considerations involved in the present crisis, and of the duty which devolves upon us as citizens of the common Metropolis of the Republic, have Resolved, That a crisis has manifestly. arrived in which the indulgence of mere party feelings, • and the achievement of mere party purposes, can afford no remedy for the imminent evils under which the country labours ; but having probably superinduced them, are calculated to enhance and prolong them. Resolved, That such objects, ever ignoble in comparison with the prosperity, happiness, and dignity of the whole people, are, at the present juncture, especially unworthy of the high functions of our national legislators; and in open conflict with the interests, opinions, and wishes of the people whom they represent. Resolved, That as Republican citizens, and as members of both the great political parties meeting here upon the common ground of the commonweal, without compromising our distinc tive political opinions upon other questions, we cordially unite in deprecating all factious opposition to the administration of our Government in the hands of those to whom the people under the Constitution have committed it, as unjust and de grading in itself—as calculated to embarrass the necessary operations of the Government—retard the fulfilment of its legitimate obligations, and impair its S . : lel) , vigour and use fulness, at a period of great public emergency, when the ex pectation of millions is concentered upon the wisdom and suc cess of its policy. Resolved, That the proposition emanating from that Admi nistration, now pending before Congress, and recently favour ably reported on by Committees of the House of Representatives and the Senate, for the establishment of a Government Ex chequer, recognising as it does, both the power and duty of the Federal Government, to provide a sound currency for the peo ple, is entitled to the candid consideration of all who appreciate the importance of a sound national currency to the present wants and future prosperity of the country. Resolved, That view ing the financial condition of the country in relation to the proper dignity and efficiency of our Republican Government, we consider our Congress now assembled to be under the solemn responsibility of promptly imposing such duties upon imports as shall not only put an end to the miserable and expensive policy of borrowing from year to year for ordinary expenditures, but also provide means for the punctual payment of such a debt as present exigencies may compel us to contract for the pur pose of putting the country in a state of self-protection and fence favourable to the fair adjustment of existing difficulties with foreign powers. Resolved, That we deem it the duty of Congress to give this indispensable measure their first and highest consideration —suffering it neither to be restricted by false principles of eco nomy, which the fisturo ever shows to be the most improvident, nor deterred by frivolous and humiliating controversy ; and further, that any attempt. wheresoever it may originate, or whatever purpose designed, to postpone the great currency question to future sessions, and to mingle such momentous questions of national security and honour with future political struggles, will receive,. as it will deserve, the unqualified repro bation and universal indignation of the people. And finally, we invoke the spirit of forbearance, of concession, and of pa triotism to preside over the deliberations of Congress, and to secure such results as will strengthen the bonds of union, re store quiet to our harassed and suffering people, and set at work those elements which, unrestrained by factious designs, would restore our beloved country to its former prosperity. RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS IN PHILA DELPHIA. PIIILADCLPHIA MARCH 18, r.m.—At a meeting of De legates from the different banks of the city and county of Phi ladelphia, it was (with the exception of the Manufacturers' and Mechanics' and Moyamensing Banks) resolved to resume specie payments immediately, which resolution was put in execution fully, with the exception of the above named institutions, that were run upon yesterday, and closed their doors this morning ; the latter issued a circular, setting forth her situation and abi lity to meet her liabilities. A considerable run was made on the Northern Liberty Bank and the Farmers and Mechanics Bank, most of the applicants were for small amounts; the sum drawn from the lattet, I believe, did not exceed 20,000 dol., from the Philadelphia Bank 10,000 dol., and received in deposits 8,000 dol., the Bank of North America only about 3,000 dol. ; others I have not learned, but from appearances I should judge that but very small sums were withdrawn. There was but one sale made at the Stock Exchange, and prices did not vary ; in Exchanges there was considerable alte ration. Sight drafts on New York are quoted at par to i t per cent. premium ; on Baltimore par to per cent. discount. • THEATRE ROYAL, COVENT-GARDEN.

MA RCIT 19.—A better feeling was manifested at the Stock Exchange this morning—the sales were to a considerable ex tent at an improvement on yesterday's quotations. Ohio Six per Cents. advanced 4 per cent. ; Indiana Bonds, lA ; Dela ware and Hudson, 4; Harlem, IA per cent. ; Canton Com pany, per share ; and Long Island RR. per cent. The general appearance of the Money Market remains un changed. We perceive no indications of improvement. No material alteration either is to be perceived on the Stock Ex change. The banks take all the short paper of good character offered them. The rate in the Street on notes at long date is from 10 to 15 per cent. Failures both here and in Boston occur too frequently, which is not to be wondered at consider ing the continued depression which pervades the prices of most articles of merchandise. Foreign Exchanges have been rather declining; the present rate shows our currency is more than equivalent to gold and silver in Europe ; these being about 2 per cent. in our favour. Our quotations are for first-rate city bills. Southern are from ito per cent. lower. Not much has been done during the week in Inland Ex changes. The rate on Philadelphia is now reducectio the specie standard there. FROM BUENOS AYRES. The following letter from our Correspondent at Buenos Ayres, brought by the brig Falco at this port, is more than a week later than our last advices direct from that Republic, and contains several important facts : Munroe AYRES, JAN'. 4. 1842.—Since ray , last another action has occurred between the opposing fleets in this river. It is said to have taken place in the North Channel, near Point Indio. I have seen no official account of it. Admiral Brown's vessel has returned here with some damage to her hull, and landed the dead and wounded, Commodore Coe has arrived at Monte Video, where some dissatisfaction exists, because ho did not succeed in taking Browr, and a Court-Martial is talked of. General Echague has resigned the gubernatorial chair in Entre Rios, and has come to Buenos Ayres. General Urguiza succeeds him in the command of that province. Governor Lopez, of Santa Fe, has joined the league with Corrientes and the Banda Oriental. Some fears are expressed that Urguiza may go over to it. The annual message of the Executive of this Province to the Legislature, appeared on the Ist inst. In a hasty reading I find the following content s:— A disposition to cultivate peace with foreign nations. Notice of, and refusal to admit offers of mediation between this Go vernment and the Banda Oriental made by both France and England. Congratulations to Queen Victoria on the birth of her son; to Louis Philippe on The escape of his sons from assassination ; expressions of sorrow for the death of President Harrison, and of regard for his memory. Gen. Alvear, Minister to Washington, was pressing the claims of the Republic, of the satis factory adjustment of which, by a nation so illustrious as the United States, there could be no doubt. A determination is expressed to reduce the obstinacy and perversity of the Pro vince of Corrientes and the President of the Banda Oriental, to revolutionize their governments, and set up others less " savage" and more civilized. Reasons for , breaking up the Jesuits and closing their doors—viz. because their establish • ment did pot answer the expectations of either Government or people ' • public opinion is repre sented as drivin g them off. The Pope had been duly informed of the proceeding by the Executive. Financial statements, making or renewing the paper money (which is pronounced a very expensive affair), and the Budget for 1842, by which it appears that during the year a deficit in the Treasury is expected to arise of 13.530,782 dollars and 7ls reals. No plan is proposed to liquidate it, or make it up, but is left to a successor and the enlightened Legis lature to devise ways and means. The message closes with a formal and final resignation of Governor Rosas, and an earnest request that the Representa tives would select from the good and virtuous of the Province, another person to rule the country. This document is written in the name of Arana, the Deputy-Governor, and for bom bastic expression, is worthy of a Chinese Emperor and a middle-of-the-world position. It is the ruling opinion that no new election will take place, and that no one but General Rosas has the capacity to govern this people. EMIGRATION.—In the course of the last week the early American ships, which go by the name of " the first spring fleet," sailed from the Broomielaw, and, in consequence, the business bustle which was noticed at this portion of our locality has been somewhat lessened. They carry for the most part general cargces, of large aggregate value. Amongst the fleet are dispersed a considerable number of emigrants, all of whom, with the exception of the cabin passengers, are of the humbler orders, belonging principally to the small towns and villages in the neighbourhood. —Cakdonian Mercury.

This Corporatior. war mablished in the year 1832 ; its opera tions arc carried on in the village of Kensal-green, on the Har row-reatl. The expectations of ita projectors and most sail pine supporters have been more than realised. The dividend declared in June, 1841, was 6 per cent., a fact which, coupled with the increasing objection, manifested by all classes, to in terments being any longer permitted in the Metropolis, leads to the inevitable conclusion that this undertaking will rank as one of the Safest and most profitsble to which this age of Com► panics has given rise.

APRIL 15, 1542. We see with satisfaction that the House of Com mons last night ratified Mr. T. DUNCOMBE'S resolu tion, that petitions should be received against an im pending tax. It was, however brought forward by Lord F. EGERTON, who bound it up with some other things, that his friends the Ministers might not actually seem to adopt the very resolution on Thurs day which they had opposed on Monday. They did so, however. As Mr. T. DUNCOMBE said, the Noble Lord let his friends down tm the bare ground. It was perhaps to be .expected that Lord JOHN RUSSELL, who has been a Minister, and may be one again, should support the practice of not discussing petitions, but it is not on that account the more pleasing to us to find him and Lord HowicK taking what we regard as the Tory side. The Noble Lords dread lest the House of Commons should be too much occupied with the petitions of the people, and not have time enough to make laws. In the case of the tariff, for example, Lord JOHN supposed that diEcussing petitions might 1_ e very inconvenient, but it seems to us that it would be very just. The tariff has been brought forward without any communication with the parties concerned. It inflicts serious injury on several trades, and if those who carry them on cannot have their petitions discussed, how can the House of Commons as a body become acquainted with their claims ? Will all the Members read their petitions They will not ; and to abstain from discussing those petitions before the House agrees to the tariff, is to legislate in ignorance. But that is commonly donr., and legislators like to do it. They think that their knowledge is all-sufficient, and they are apt to treat with contempt the representations of those whom they are about, by their laws, to injure. We regret to see Lord JOHN RUSSELL taking such a decided part in favour of the modern practice of stifling discussion on petitions, and beg leave to tell him that such a course will not restore him to that public fa vour, which we regret to say he has lost. Sir Ro- BERT PEEL has lately set him the example of earn- ing popularity, and though we would pot recommend Lord JoHN RUSSELL to imitate the cunning and de ceit of Sir ROBERT PEEL, he may learn from Sir ROBERT'S success the value of that popularity which Lord JOHN RUSSELL seems habitually to despise. It seems that neither the deficiency of the revenue, the disasters in Caubul, nor the desire to improve trade, nor all these combined, are the sufficient mo tive in Sir ROBERT PEEL'S mind for imposing t n income tax on the people. He has some knowlelge, it is hinted, of vast impending difficulties for which the income tax is to provide. From some prophetic skill for which modern statesmen have been in general so little renowned, that they have not been able to foresee or foretell the consequences of their own conduct, he has ascertained what will be the condition of things in future, and to meet it nothing less than an income tax, the rate of which, when its machinery is in operation, can be increased at any given moment, from 3 to 20 per cent., will suffice. He sees much further, we are told, than the multi tude, and his income tax is to meet some great event which nobody but himself yet dreams of. The Times, in a leader from which we have made a short extract, states, that the arguments used by Sir R. PEEL do not carry anything like a conviction to its mind that the emergency is sufficient to warrant the obnoxi ous remedy which he has resorted to. Our Contemporary, therefore, pleads for confidence, in the man " the people have chosen to be Prime Mi nister," and claims credit for him that he is only car rying out, with that secrecy which becomes a Con servative Government, the precautionary measures which coming events demand. From his own friends and partizans the Minister keeps the grounds of his conduct secret, and requires them—and requires the nation—with a true devotion and implicit faith, to surrender their judgment and understanding to his will. Another Tory Journal, more perhaps in Sir Ro- BERT'S confidence than the Times, and which was once supposed to receive its inspirations from Mr. CROX ER, informs us that the event for which Sir ROBERT PEEL is providing is an approaching war. The al lusions of our Morning Contemporary confirm, if they be not borrowed from, the statements of the John Bull. We have announced in The Sun that Louts PHILIPPE labours under a disease, which, at his time of life, is rarely cured ; and it is, according to the Sunday organ of the Tories, to bo ready for the consequences of his death, as they are painfully depicted to the vision of the Seer at the head of affairs, that the people must at once submit to an in come tax. At Louis PHILIPPE'S death a revolution is antici pated in France, and our Tory Government, in con junction with the despots of Europe, who are all, it is said, preparing for war, is to employ the force of England in another crusade against the development of liberty in France. Such is the version given by the John Bull of the origin of the income tax, which throws some light on the elaborate peroration of the Premier on propounding his budget. The first French Revolution and the apprehensions of a third, we must now believe were present to his mind, when he ap- /// pealed to the patriotism of the Tories, formerly cd life and fortune men, and conjured them by conse ing to pay 7d. per pound out of their incomes, to sh themselves worthy of their sires. For them to c up at once is to awe in time revolutionary File•_ and maintain "that reputation " which "repels tile aggression and secures extended empire." • This conjecture receives some confirmation fr , the Corn-law and the budget of the Right II / Baronet. It is to be presumed from the an: feelings which prevail in the United States and ( Colonies bordering on them, that in case of a v with republican France, England would find t United States take advantage of that circumstance I settle the Boundary Question, and some other qu • tions according to their own wishes. In case of a war with France and America, should find our supplies of timber, from our No. American colonies, then more than ever need partially intercepted. We c:ould not, in that case„ any of those supplies of grai n from the vast valet, the Mississippi, which some fi )olish men, called phi sophers, have supposed mighl serve to cement t io two nations in peace by an in terest as strong as tl t which preserves unfailing ham aony between Scotia and England. Foreseeing the circumstances, it R. PEEL encourages, by a Corn-keeping-out-law, t growth, especially of wheat, tin t grain, or fou-,V, almost the only food brought froti the Uniteci:States and provides by an alteration of the timber duties fora e :tensive supply of timber from the north of Eurol wi i th that . part of the world we shall probably a lli e d againsi . France, and our supply from then could not easily be intercepted by the Americans. So the aerations in the duties on cattle whi may be bro& from the neighbouring Continen and on meat and potatoes, all seem calculated to pr s of food to h e lp ou t t cure some additional supplit; scanty pittance to which a Cots.t; - law would doom o, increasing people, rigidly denied the advantages participating in the fruits of the rllch fields of;'i West. If it be not time that Sir Ron.snT PEEL preparing for war, as the John ,pull announces, h commercial policy will of least tend to separate II interests of this country froo those of the Unit , States, somewhat concerned both in timber anei corn-trade, and tend to isolate the two - which is the glory of politicians.. ' We do not vouch for these conjectures, but certain that Louis PHILIPPE cannot live long—near!; certain that at his death the system which he hzet established, which depends almost entirely ( him, must fall to pieces ; and it is a plain matt, 0 of fact, that for many years the fate of England h $ been closely bound up with the fate of Franc 2 The first French Revolution fatally arrested the Fr gress of reform and political liberty in England. TL Revolution of 1830 accelerated the destruction' of th r, Tory Ministry, and promoted the Reform of th House of Commons. In like manner, the subsequeuz 4. success of Louis PHILIPPE .in putting down tht., nascent liberties of France, alas emboldened Sir 1 ROBERT PEEL to pursue an arbi'tary course, and in troduce his income tax. If he succeed, it will to , mainly owing to the previous success of kindre 1 tyranny abroad. He is but imitati . ng the tyrants ce the Continent, who seek rather to mare their subject-‘ - ' obey, than to convince them of the utility of the Go. vernment measures. Looking at the obvious assimilation which is now , taking place in all the Governments of Europe, which. )orrow the institutions of one another, there can be; little doubt, were another revolution in a democratic: spirit to take place in France, during the possession c power by the Tories, that England would again unite herself with the aristocratic and despotic Govern ments of Europe to arrest its progress. We have est! authority of the Tory John Bull for warning th e people of England that an income tar is to be im posed on them in order to enable the Government, iu conjunction with the Powers of Europe, to put don the democratic revolution, which the Tories anticipate. on the death of Louis PturAPPE. We no long( r wonder at Sir Ronrarr PEEL not laying before th_. public his full reasons for proposing an income tax. It might have marred the cunning :Premier's succes: with the Chartists and the working classes, had he in.. timated in his speech that he wanted the income tax, he asked the n by no covert means to support, in orala to crush freedom and republicanism abroad. , We understand that Sir James Carnegy, who eam. forward as a candidate for the Montrose district burghs, has withdrawn in favour of Mr. Hume, and that tills long tried and consistent Reformer will most likely take his place in the House on Monday night as t: Member for Montrose, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
