THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who are bound by their deed of constitution net to dispute any policy, unless they can prove that it was obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation ; the great aim and abject having been to render Life Policies COMPLETE SECURI TIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS, which shall ewe their value to the certainty of the contracts upon which they are founded, and be independent of the liberality er caprice of those who shall be in the management of the affairs of the Company when the claims arise; and for this purpose the Company have, by a clause in their deed of constitution, unhesitatingly deprived themselves of the power of objecting to any policy, unless they undertake to prove that it was obtained from them by fraudulent misrepresentation. The regulations common to all other Life Companies, which make the validity of assurance contracts dependent upon the perfect correct ness of the many statements required from a proposer for a Lifo Policy, and which have given rise to almost all the questions which have been argued in the Courts, and to many extra-judicial com promises, are thus entirely abrogated; and nothing but fraud, proved to have been committed against them, can vitiate a policy granted by this Company. THIS IS THE •NLY COMPANY from whom the assured on the mutual principle, receive the whole of the mutual accumulations, and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums assured. THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to pay the sums in the policies, although the debts for whick they were effected shall have been liquidated before the claims arise. The Company considering it only just towards the assured that where premiums have been paid for assuring a given amount, that amount should be paid ; and they undertake to do so without reference to the state of the accounting between the assured and his debtor. THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in favour of creditors whole world policies, whereby the debt is secured, although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe. The premiums calculated according to the Carlisle Tables, are lower than usual upon young lives, where participation in the profits Is not required ; and for short assurances, which, at the option of the assured, may be continued for life, the rates are as low as a duo re gard to complete security will permit.

The Half-premium plan of Assurance, as practised by this Company, thus enables perso n a to retain to their own use the one-half of the premiums for the first seven years, at 5/. per cent. interest. Thus, suppose the or dinary premium for an assurance of 5001. to be 101., the first pay ment by the half-premium plan will be five guineas, being the one half of the 101., and interest for the retained half; and, if death should occur in the first year, the sum of 5001. would be paid less the 51. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first year of 51. ; for the second, of 101. ; and so on till the end of the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 351., may either be repaid, er retained at 51. per cent. interest until death, when the 351. would be subtracted from the 5001. then payab, tby the Company.

Their late Ma esties, the Duchess of Kent, the most eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic balance, the Press —have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated Herbaceous Compound, known as "Grim stone's Eye Snuff" for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and Head.

DUTCH AND FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, MAY 22.—The King arrived at Brus sels this afternoon, at half-past five o'clock, and im • mediately went to Lacken. The King of Saxony is to leave Dresden on the 25th, and to arrive at Brussels on the 27th. A German journal announces, on the authority of recent accounts from St. Petersburgh, that the Em peror Nicholas will go, at the beginning of July, to Carlsbad, where there will be important negotiations. A French Ministerial journal contains' this state ment in the following terms :—" The Emperor of Russia, the Emperor of Austria, and the King of Prussia are to go to Carlsbad at the end of the month of June. The storm which raged on Sunday night did con siderable damage in several parts of the country about Namur. The crop have suffered severely ; whole fields are laid, since which there have been high winds and incessant rain ; and there is reason to fear great disasters. The Chamber continued the debate on the several questions put by M. Dumortier, and by the Minister of the Interior. It decided, Ist. That differential duties shall he established in favour of the flag and the place or origin. 2d, That, with some exceptions, they shall be for the first year only half on certain raw materials. 3d. That the productions of Asia, Africa, and America coming to Belgium, direct from the place where they are produced, and under the flag of the countries to which they belong, or from which they come, shall be admitted on the same terms as under the Belgian flag, when that flag shall be treated in those cases on the same footing as the national flag, and that to establish this reciprocity, which shall not exist of right, nothing more shall be necessary than a decision of the Government. MAY 23.—T0-day the Chamber decided in the affirmative, three questions relative to the entrepOts moved by the Minister of the interior. Ist. Teat there shall be an intermediate category for certain articles coming from the place where they are produced on this side of Cape Horn, and of the Cape of Good Hope. 2d. That there shall be an assimilation to articles coming from the place where they are produced for certain articles coming from the entrepOts beyond Cape Horn. 3d. The same assimilation for certain articles corn ing from the entrepOts beyond the Cape of Good Hope. A confused discussion then arose on the question of the European entrepOts, and then M. Delfosse asked that the question should be put whether exceptions should be made in favour of the Dutch entrepOts. The Minister of the Interior declared, that if that question were to be discussed, he should demand a secret convention. The question was then decided in the affirmative, as it had been moved by the Minister, that is to say, that there shall be for an indefinite term an exception in favour of the entrepots of the Mediterranean, the Baltic, and Holland, on certain articles to be hereinafter specified. The application to be discussed in a Secret Committee. To-morrow the Chamber will commence the dis cussion of the tariff. AMSTERDAM, MAY 22.—We learn from the Hague, that the Commissioners for the projected railway be tween Maestricht and Aix-la. Chapelle have arrived at the Hague, in order to learn from his Excellency, the Minister of Finance, whether they may hope to obtain the Royal license required for undertakings of this nature. It appears that the subscription of the capital necessary for the purpose is full, and there fore that the Government would not have to add to the fund; but the Company which undertakes to construct and work this railway wishes that the State should cede to it, for a certain number of years (ninety it is said), the coal-mines of Kerkrade, in the Duchy of Limburg, belonging to the State, as a guarantee for a minimum of interest ; at the expira tion of that time the State would recover the posses sion of its mines, and the railway would become the public property.—Neeive Rotterclamsche Courant. THE HAGUE, MAY 24.—His Excellency the Mi nister of Finance has communicated to the States- General the result of the subscription to the voluntary loan, and the gratuitous donations decreed by virtue of the law of the 6th of March last. The first in stalment on the eighth part of the 117,000,00 f. would amount to 14,037,5000 f. 25c. The sum actually paid in, up to the 18th of May, inclusive, is 28,815,370 florins. PETERSBURGII, MAY I.—The Emperor has issued an Ukase which. (as already in the Guards), the punishment of the bastinado is prohibited in the whole army, except in case of extraordinary criminality, and that, in such cases, the punishment is not to be inflicted at the discretion of the colonel of the regi ment, but by virtue of a sentence pronounced by a court-martial. Those persons who act against those orders are to be severely punished. STETTIN, MAT 17.—Our Government has resolved considerably to enlarge our harbours, so that the largest merchantmen will be able to come up to the town. THE WILL FORGERS. We copied from the Observer of last Sunday, into our co lumns, the circular which had been issued by Barber's soli citor, inviting the signatures of parties to a petition to the Crown, praying for a commutation of the sentence of that convict. We have since heard that, notwithstanding the ac tive exertions of Barber's legal advisers, and the high opinion which one of them frequently expressed of his client, not more than six signatures have been procured to the instru ment. Barber, however, is a man of such sanguine tempe rament, that there is reason to believe that he is still not without hopes that something to soften the horrors of his sentence may still be effected. Up to the moment at which the verdict of the jury was pronounced he fully anticipated an acquittal; and even after the whole Court heard it dis tinctly issue from the mouth of the foreman, he could scarcely consider the fact a reality. He has been already clothed in convict's dress, a degradation which Fletcher as well as he appeared to feel most severely. In regard to the respite of Barber's sentence, we have not heard any rumours of alte ration on which the slightest dependence is to be placed, and the month, to the conclusion of which we mentioned, in a former article, his actual embarcation was to be de layed, must by this time nearly have expired. An applica tion was made to the jury to sign a recommendation in Barber's favour, but it was declined. The greater number of the jury, we have been informed, were fully prepared to give their verdict at once ; but there were two or three jurors upon whom the address of Barber's Counsel had made an impression. The jury, in consequence of this dis agreement, retired, and they all, with the exception of a solitary juryman, were very soon ready to return to the Court to utter their decision. The eleven assentients being firmly convinced of the guilt of all the prisoners, placed the letters and other documents in the hands of their fellow juryman, stating that they were anxious he should consider them by himself, and he accordingly adjourned to a separate part of the room, from which he afterwards returned in tears, and declared that he felt it impossible to withstand the con viction of guilt which the papers forced upon his mind, and a verdict of guilty was accordingly, as is well known t o the world, pronounced against the "individual for whom a _ such struggle had been made. In adverting to these trials .again we cannot help contrasting the efficiency of the oldtK police, e, as exemplied in the persons of the two Forresters, de tective portion of the new police. It is believed by those who are well qualified to judge, that i f the n e w force had been employed in the investigation of these nefarious frauds the re • salt might have been very different and there can be little doubt that many of the curious intricacies which tended 80 much to the establishmen t of the g uilt of the parties involved in the conspiracy could never have been brought to light. In illustration of this remark, it is asked by those who have taken a deep interest in the investigation, what probability there would have been, after the apprehension of Barber and Fletcher, that the new force would carry the facts, as re garded the other offenders any further. The fictitious Emma Slack had been for three weeks in a lodging in London, and on inquiry it was found that the occupiers of the house were unable to say who she was, what place she came from, or whither she had gone ; and, in fact, all the information they could give was, that she was evidently dis guised, which made the mystery more impenetrable. The course, it is believed, which wo u ld h ave b een adopted by the new police, judging from their practice under similar circumstances, would have been to send a circular, giving the best descrip tion they could of the party, to the different station-houses, and that they might have done to eternity • the matter would have remain e d i n statu quo. I t could only have been by the tact of individuals who have been educated from early life in extraonlinary investigations, and who are pos sessed of singular perseverance, steadiness, and skill, that any discovery could have been reasonably expected. The course which these intelligent officers pursued is worthy of remark. The inquiries concerning Barber's connexions ap pear to have been first undertaken ; no facts transi d iring, the way was paved to the connexions of Fletcher. No pre sent apparent connexions of the latter could be found an swering the descriptions of the parties. The Forresters, therefore, had to look to associates of a former day, and here was found one in the person of a Miss Richards, of Bath, who, although apparently having discontinued any ac quaintanceship for many years, did not escape the vigilance of these able men. The judgment here shown has been fully established by the facts as they were afterwards brought to ROYAL COMMISSION of FINE ARTS. The EXHIBITION of DECORATIVE WORKS, at 20, King street, St. James's, is OPEN to the PUBLIC GRATIS, from Nino o'clock till Seven, except on Saturdays, when it is open from Eleven tit • even, to Visitors paying One Shilling.

THOMAS SAUNDERS, Comptroller. GRAND ENTERTAINMENT at the MANSION-HOUSE to the JUDGES, &c. On Saturday a most splendid entertainment was given by the Lord Mayor to the Judges and other distinguished persons. His Lordship and the Lady Mayoress had between 170 and 180 guests upon the occasion, and, as has been the custom all through the present mayoralty, a great number of ladies graced the festive board. The banquet was set out in the Egyptian Hall, in a style of remarkable magnificence, and consisted of every delicacy which the season pro duced. It is necessary to observe, tliat the dinner to the Judges has been generally limited to a number of guests, seldom exceeding 50, and that the Lord Mayor determined to do honour to the bench and the bar by very largely extending the invitations. Amongst the company were the Lord Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench, the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, Sir F. Pollock, Lord Chief Baron ; Mr. Justice Patteson, Mr. Justice Coleridge, Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Justice Cresswell, Mr. Baron Alderson, Mr. Baron Gurney, Mr. Baron Rolfe, Mr. Banks, M.P., Cursitor Baron ; Sergeants Manning, Halcombe, Channell, Shee, Glover, Gazelee, Murphy, Dowling, Clarke, and Byles; Mr. Masterman, M.P., Sir J. Easthope, Bart., M.P., General Gardiner, Mr. F. Kelly, M.P., Sir H. Dymock, Bart. (Champion of England); Sir F. Booth, Bart., Aldermen Sir C. S. Hunter, Bart., Brown, Sir J. Key, Bart., Sir P. Laurie, Fairbrother, Copeland, Sir C. Marshall, and Humphery ; the Recorder of London, &c. The LORD MAYoa rose to propose " The health of her Most Grabious Majesty the Queen," a name, he said, respected, not only on account of the distin guished position of her who owned it, but on account of the numerous exalted virtues which adorned her mind, and gave additional elevation to her station, and her anxiety at all times to advance the welfare and happiness of the nation.—(Loud cheers.) " Prince Albert," and " The Queen Dowager," were also proposed by his Lordship, and the toasts were received by the company with loud acclama tions. The Loan MAYOR then rose to propose "Lord Denman, the Lord Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench, and the rest of the Judges of the land." He was, he declared, proud to see these eminent per sonages at the Civic table, in conformity with the good old practice which permitted the Chief Magis trate of the City of London to enjoy the high dis tinction of paying to the great legal characters of the kingdom the honour due to them ; and he might say with confidence, that never, upon any occasion, had the Bench been more ably filled than it was at the present day.—(Loud cheers.) Lord DENMAN, in returning thanks for the honour done him and his learned brothers, said he was free to admit that while they were directed to the discharge of their important duties by higher and nobler motives, they could not but feel that they were rewarded in their exertions to administcrjustice by the high esti mation in which the public were in the habit of re ceiving and acknowledging their services. The hospi talities of the Mansion-house were most liberally ex tended to all without distinction of classes or opinions; and it was a most gratifying circumstance to observe that the first magistrate of the first city in the world was always ready to j us- tify the high reputation from which the citizens, time immemorial, had enjoyed, and to which they were so fully entitled.—(Cheers.) Lord Denman then pro posed " The health of the Lord Mayor." The gen tleman who at present filled that high office had ex erted himself to deserve, as he was sure the Lord Mayor would receive, the permanent good opinion of his fellow-citizens, for he maintained his eminent po sition in a manner which reflected the greatest credit upon the office, and had gone further to secure the approbation of his friends by every other means of which he had the opportunity to avail himself.— (Cheers.) Having been many years connected with the corporation of London, he had been present upon many similar occasions, but he had never witnessed any festival which gave him more gratification than that to which he was at that moment bearing sincere and hearty evidence. The LORD MAYOR returned thanks, and proposed the "English Bar," and remarked that the people of this country were largely indebted to the independence and honour of the profession for the pure administration of justice, which was the pride and boast of the coun try under which we live. Sergeant MANNING, on behalf of himself and his professional brethren, returned thanks for a compli l i - ment which he trusted and believed they would al ways be found endeavouring to deserve. For five cen turies the sergeants-at-law had been accustomed to partake of the hospitalities of the Mansion-house, and he hoped that the good old custom would last for five centuries longer—that his Lordship might enjoy the pleasure of entertaining that learned body, and that he (Sergeant Manning) might be present to partake of the social cheer.—(Great laughter and applause.) The Loan MAYOR proposed " The House of Com mons," and with that toast coupled the name of Mr. Fitzroy Kelly, M.P. Mr. F. KELLY ' in returning thanks, said he re gretted that his Lordship had not joined to such a toast the name of some older and abler Member of the House of Commons, by many of whom he was surrounded. He trusted that the House of Commons would ever be found promoting and advancing all those measures which had for their object the honour and interests of the country. The two greatest bodies of the nation were the House of Commons and the City of :London embracing the wealth, intelligence, and commerce of the country—(Cheers)—and he felt satisfied that the House of Commons would always concur in protecting the Corporation in the enjoy ment of those privileges which rightly exercised re- ' dounded to the credit and glory of London.—(Cheers.) The Loan MAYOR proposed " Mr. Masterman ; M.P., and the Representatives of the City of London. Mr. MASTERMAN, M.P., stated that he felt highly honoured by the manner in which his and his col leagues' names were received by the distinguished company. They all, however they might differ in political opinion, had in view the good of those whom they represented, and he entertained a confident belief that they would make every effort to secure them selves the approbation of the people of this great City. The LORD CuiEr JUSTICE of the Common Pleas rose to propose the health of the Lady Mayoress, whose urbanity of manners had given a zest to the entertainment, and added a social and friendly feeling to the splendour of the scene.—(Loud cheers.) The health of the Lady Mayoress was drunk amidst acclamation. The Loan MAYOR returned thanks for her Lady ship, and assured the company that it afforded high satisfaction to the Lady Miyoress that those who were engaged in conducting such important affairs ,z 7/ e__,--/ light. But even very little was known AS to who this Miss Richards, of Bath, precisely was, and no little exertion must have been used in ultimately finding her as Mrs. Dorey, of Oxford-street, London. So again in the apprehension of Mr. and Mrs. Saunders, whose family even, as there is good reason to believe, did not know where they were ; and lastly, in the discovery of the dress, and those unanswerable minor facts tending so materially to the proof of the identity of Mrs. Richards as the fictitious Mrs. Stewart. Amongst the strongest evidences of the correctness of these observations, as to the conduct of these officers, is the frequent allusions made to their exertions by Mr. Charles Freshfield and Mr. Weir, who so ably managed the whole of the prosecutions, and who repeatedly declared, that if it had not been for the extraordinary efforts of the Forresters, the mysteries of the will forgeries would, in all human probability, have remained undeveloped.— Times. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, MAY 24.—The Lightning steam-vessel, Master commanding William Roberts, acting, passed througis Spithead on Sunday, from Woolwich, bound to Cork, having on board Rear-Admiral Sir Hugh Pigot, Knight, K.C.8.. ap pointed to the command on the Irish station, vice Near- Admiral William Bowles, C. 8., appointed by her Majesty to a seat at the Admiralty, vacated by Sir George Seymour, ap pointed to the command on the South American station.

The Rhadamanthus steam-vessel, Master Commander Thomas Laen, is ordered from Cork to Glasgow to embark the depot of the 79th (Highlanders) for Cork, after which sho will proceed to Liverpool and embark the 38th for Dublin. The Caledonia, 120, Captain A. Milne, is shortly expected to leave her moorings in Plymouth Sound for Spithead, to join the other flag-ships forming the squadron of exercise. She has been paid advance, and her crew mustered and in spected by the Commander-in-Chief, Sir David Milne, G.C.8., who expressed his satisfaction at the very efficient state of the crew, &c. The Vromethous steam-vessel, Commander John Hay, is undocked and entering her creNT fast. Her destination is the West African station, via the tape. The Albion, 92, aptain Lockyer, C. 13., left the Tagus for the Mediterranean on the 11th inst.

The Collingwood, 80, Captain Henry Eden, is rapidly en tering her seamen, being well known as crack ship. Ad miral Sir George Seymour, Knt., G.C.H., the successor of Rear-Admiral Thomas to the command in the Pacific, will speedily hoist his flag in her. It is reported Lady Seymour and daughter will accompany the gallant Admiral, for which preparations have been made. Notwithstanding the rumoured recal of the Queen, 110, to Malta, it is rumoured here that the Indus, 80, Captain Sir James Stirling, Knt., made out her number in the Channel, and is supposed to be coming to Spithead to join the squadron of exercise, her qualities not having had a fair trial in the Mediterranean. The Cygnet, 6, brigantine, Commander Henry Layton, is daily looked for at Spithead from the Nore, en route to the Cape of Good Hope. The Vernon, 50, Captain Walpole, was inspected on Tues day last by Vice-Admiral Sir John Chambers White, Com mander-in-Chief at the Nore, after which she was paid off. The name of the officer has not yet transpired upon whom will devolve the command of the summer squadron of exer cise. The illness of the Commander-in-Chief here will pre clude him from sailing in the St. Vincent. The Gallant Admiral has recently had an attack of his old complaint which confined him to his bed. It is reported Sir John Cham bers White will have command of the squadron, but we only give this as a report. The Malabar, 72, Captain Sir G. R. Sartorius, Rnt., ar rived last night from Lisbon, last from Cork, but not to be paid off, it being asserted that she also will join the squadron of exercise. The Raven cutter, Lieut. John Stephen, arrived this morn ing from Sheerness with supernumeraries. In Harbour—Victory, Excellent, Rattlesnake, Echo, and Prometheus.

MiLiTanr.—The annual inspection of the Portsmouth divi sion of Royal Marines took place on Thursday, on Southsea common, by Major-General the Hon. Sir H. R. Pakenham, K.C.8., &c., Lieut.-Governor of Portsmouth Garrison, Ad jutant-General J. Owen, K.K., and Colonel-Commandant G. Jones. The men went through the various evolutions and formations with the greatest precision, and elicited the warmest eulogium from the General and Staff. The Royal 4 Marine Artillery excited the wonder of their commanders and spectators by their extraordinary speed in limbering and un limbering their guns, firing, &c., which were all performed in the incredible short space of one minute. The General and Staff very highly complimented the men 'and their officers upon the astonishingly high and serviceable state of discipline to which this unrivalled corps has arrived, and expressed high gratification at the soldier like bearing and fighting order exhibited by the men. Vast numbers of the beauty and fashion of this locality attended the gratify ing spectacle, which lasted until nearly sun-set. This day the field-day operations were resumed, though not on the same ground, the scenes of action being removed to Cumberland Fort, about four miles from Portsmouth, where the operations performed were of the most astounding cha racter, the various regiments forming the garrison of the fort and of Portsmouth taking the parts respectively of besiegers and defenders, which the excellent space around the fort on the shore side assisted admirably to display. The bomb and rocket-practice was most precise and efficient, and was the wonder of all beholders. The whole were under the com mand of Major-General Pakenham, Colonel Trevor, of the 59th, Colonel Menzies, Royal Marines, Colonel Jones, Royal Marines, and Adjutant-General Owen, Royal Marines. The operations commenced a little before twelve, and did not con clude until nearly three. The officers of the Royal Marine Corps give a splendid spread to their Colonel and Adjutant- General, which General Pakenham will also honour with his presence. A ball upon a spendid scale will also be given this evening by the officers of the mess, to which all the rank and beauty of the garrison and vicinity are invited. LYCEUM THEATRE.

On Saturday last her Most Gracious Majesty's approved of the sentence of seven years' tranaportatior. against Thorau Hopkins, late a drummer in the Coldstream Guards, was received by the authori:ies belonging to that regiment. It appears that the prisoner, a few days ago, whilst on parade at the barracks in Portman-street., deliberately stepped out sf his rank, and struck Serjeaste and Drum-major Caldwell, a violent blow under his left jaw. On trial the fact was not denied, but a plea in exte nuation of punishment was set up, that of intoxication. A court-martial was consequently held, and everything is favour of the prisoner's former character was considered, but it was deemed necessary on the part of the military authorities to make an example in this case. The pri* s )ner had been in the regiment for several years.
