The distinctive feature of this Company consists in the sufficiency of ONE PAYMENT' to cover an A-surance for the WHOLE OF LIFE. The flr,t is the only expense and trouble, there being no annual re newal of premlum. By granting Assurances to Passengers only, and excluding all those persons in the employ of Railway Companies or Contractors among whom the heavier risks occur, the Directors of this Com pany are enabled to issue l'olicies at a lower rate of premium than is offered by any existing Company. It will be seen that, by a single payment of Five Shillings, any Railway Traveller may be assured in the sum of 1001. for the re mainder of his life. Up4ll proof being given that a party assured has met with his death by railway accident, the Company will pay to his representa tives the full amount of his Policy. If the accident shall result in personal injury only, the Company will pay to the assured a fair compensation lbr such Injury. Assurers have the option or travelling in carriages of any class, and on any railway in the United Kingdom. The Directors are now granting assurances upon the following terms, viz.•:— For every Policy of 100/. rf Pt 19 5001 SP 1 ON/ 91 11 9 • „ „ „ 2,0001. . 01. ss. . 1/. ss. . 21. 2s. . 41. 4s.

The conside ration of the Whig policy in Ireland does not seem out of place just at this moment, when her last and best Chief Governor is about to be re moved, we trust only to be placed in a position of increased usefulness, and where he will be enabled to carry out measures for the good of that country which he has so ably governed in times of danger, and suffering; and difficulty, and whose true interests we believe he has sincerely at heart. The occasion which suggested the investigation of this question to the learned author is somewhat characteristic. It appears that at the late Limerick election a rampant orator, in a fit of indignant patriotism, burst into the not very Christian, nor very classical exclamation, " THE WHIGS, WHAT HAVE THEY EVER DONE FOR IRELAND ?" to which the rejoinder made by the crowd amid shouts of applause Was, " YERRA, DIDN'T THEY DESTROY THE GENTRY ?" To the consideration of these questions the author has applied himself with a clearness, a bold ness, and an impartiality alike creditable to his feelings as an Irishman, and his ability as a writer. After contrasting the -two great. political parties in the State, and pointing out with great perspicuity the difficulties of the Whigs to carry out any mea sures of importance in the face of a great and power ful Opposition, he comes to the question, whether the Whigs have really been the cause of the ruin of the Irish gentry? He says— " Fro m the passing of the Act of Union to the year 1846, the state of this country was such as almost to baffle all attempts at description—its social condition was an anomaly without parallel in the history of ancient or modern times—there was nothing like it since the world began—there was no order in our social scale— every one was in a false position from the peer to the peasant—the peer in reality poor, but in appearance rich, high in rank, intolerant in politics, extravagant and profuse, but only the nominal owner of his princely in come, still indulged his hereditary tastes, played on the old game of going in debt—disregarding the duties of property, remembering only its rights—hunting, gam bling, racing, neglecting, cursing, or despising his country, and restricting her liberties whenever . he had an opportunity of doing so. The peasant, passionate, reckless, and indolent—badly h ouse d, b a dl y clot h e d , and badly fed, alike a stranger to material comforts and to moral improvement—living almost in an avowed con dition of perpetual warfare with his superiors —occa sionally passing through all the phases of a desperate criminality, but still enduring, without mitigation or in termission, all the sufferings and privations that hu manity could be afflicted with—lived on a life of crime, want, idleness, and despair; to-day the victim of misery the most appalling ; to-mor row the avenger of wrongs the most unparalleled. The gentry, who occupied an intermediate:position, imi tated the vices of their superiors, and in nothing did they resemble them with such scrupulous fidelity as in abusing their country, neglecting their tenantry, squan dering their property, or insulting the religion and dis regarding the miseries of the poor. The nobleman was generally a recognized and confirmed absentee; and as many of the gentry as could followed his example, and those who from necessity or inclination remained at home, looked on themselves rather as the occupiers of a hostile country than the citizens of a well-governed .state. Having no feelings in common with the peasantry by whom they were surrounded, and too shortsighted or too haughty to create any subjects of mutual interest, they were in the most offensive sense of the words, ' aliens in blood, language, and religion,' exhibiting it by the sullen isolation with which they kept apart from their Catholic fellow-eountry men, or by tolerating their society with an ill-concealed condescension Their pious zeal loved to propagate the Gospel in foreign parts, instead of practising its precepts at home; their motto was to reclaim the heathen, not to improve them selves; their charity was confined to a weekly but trifling contribution at the parish church. religion consisted in denouncing the Pope ; their patriotism in supporting Coercion Bills and Aims Acts; their liberality and good feeling coesMed in rack-rcet iug and harassing their tenantry; their humanity and justice in plundering and evicting them. By suck agentry were no bogs drained, no waste lands reclaimed, no trees plant, d, no peasantry employ ed, no industry re warde !, no schools founded, no Irish manufactures encuur• aged, nt.r political rights extended; indolent themselves, they were the came of iudolt nee in others, though they never ceased denouncing the idleness of the pour; clumsy and careleqi in all matters of business, yet energetic and resolute in the pursuit of pleasure, lavish in the expenditure of money, indiff,rent as to the means of its acquisition; alittni appttens, sui profitszt3, proud of their Faxen oxiAin, but ashamed of their Irish truth, their characters may be summed up in a sentence, WITH OUT THE VIRTUES OF EITHER RACE, THEY WERE IN FECTED WITH THE VICES AND FOLLIES CF BOTH." If this be a faithful picture of the Irish gentry we do not think it required the assistance of Whig or Tory to effect their ruin. The learned author pro ceeds to point out the many advantages conferred on Ireland since the accession of the present Govern ment to power. The exertions made during the famine—the large advances made for railroads, and the improvement of land, the several Bills passed for the reform of the law ; but, above and beyond all, he points to the triumphant administration of the Irish Executive. Lord CLARENDON crushed rebellion with out bloodshed, and created respect for the laws by a judicious combination of mildness and firmness. To his able colleague, Sir W. SOISIERVILLE, who works more than he talks, that country is indebted for several measures of great social and political impor tance. We shall only say i❑ conclusion that the able. author has eminently succeeded in showing, " WHAT THE WHIGS HAVE DONE FOR IRELAND !"

The gentlemen mentioned above having alone obtained the necessary majority, another ballot will take place this day for the election of these officers. This re-election of M.

The Pays announces that notwithstanding the request of the PRESIDENT of_the Republic that no subscription shall be opened for him, the idea is persisted in, and it gives the names of six persons who have opened lists at their houses. A correspondent of the Palls suggests that a sufficient sum should be raised for the purpose of purchasing Malmaison, and presenting it to the PRESIDENT. The PRESIDENT of the Republic hes announced his inten tion of immediately selling his horses. There was not much business transacted at the Bourse, and the price of Government Securities declined slightly.

(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office ar3 - Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted n, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant anal% sly of its own experience, from time to tit: e, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett excess will be made. to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s per cent, without the Average Clause.

In the House of Lords, Lord CAMPBELL brought in a Bill to amend the law of criminal procedure. Lord BROUGHAM withdrew his County Court Exten sion Bill, and introduced an amended measure. Several petitions were presented, and their Lordships adjourned. In the Commons, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER announced that ,he •ahnuld bring forward bis budget on Monday, should the debate on the Papal aggression be finished, but not otherwise. The adjourned debate on Mr. DISRAELI'S motion was resumed by The Marquis of GRANBY, ;who denied that the agri. cultural distress was of a mere temporsry character ' only, and attributed it entirely to free trade. Sir JAMES GRAHAM proved, from the poor-law re turns, that free trade had been of great benefit to the labouring classes, whose condition was now far better than it had been a few years ago. The real object of the motion was to re-impose corn taxes, and he warned the Free-traders that it was their duty to be up and doing, for a serious conflict was at hand. The Right Hon. Baronet concluded with a high eulogium on Sir HOBERT PEEL, to whose doctrines he expressed his undeviating attachment. Mr. BOOKER was convinced that sooner or later they must return to a system of protection. Mr. LABOUCHERE said that the great mass of the population was in an improved and prosperous state, and quoted largely from several returns, krt. the purpose of showing that the shipping and ship-budding interests had greatly benefited by the repeal of the navigation laws. Mr. CAYLET denounced statistics as most deceptive things, contendin g th a t th e a ll ege d prosperity of the country was u nrea l, an d warne d t h e Heuse against the results of the monetary pressure which he saw was impending. Mr. CARDWELL contended that our various branches of commerce were in an improved and improving con dition, and th a t th e l andowners would soon be enabled by their own exert i ons to retrieve their position. The wamasautnotltea all vyu the n e other taxes put together, and to give it to the owners of land. Culonel DUNNE supported tho motion. Lord JOCELYN also supported the motion, but ad mitted that if we were to return to protection, it must not be by a mere majority, but in compliance with the feeling of the nation, inasmuch as he was ready to admit the advantages which free trade had conferred upon certain classes. Mr. B. COCHRANE conceived that the House was bound by the sequence of the paragraphs in her 114.- JESTY . S Speech to give the agriculturists the opportunity of being beard, and he should cordially support the motion. Mr. COBDEN said that this motion could have but one real object, that of Protection, under one name or another. Sir JAMES GRAHAM had exhausted the sub ject-, but he would add, in answer to Mr. DISRAELI, that his assumption, that on the repeal of the corn law there had been a species of contract that corn should keep at some certain pt ice, was untenable. The only object and effort of the Free-traders had been to obtai❑ corn at the natural price of the world; that object was gained, they were satisfied, and so was the country. He had had nothing to do with prophesying about pricer. The real way to relieve the farmers was to redue , . the Government expenditure, and discourage motions of this char. (qtr., which were -intended to delude the larmers, and prevent them from insisting upon proper terms with their landlords. Let them grant leases, diminish game, and amend the law of transfer and dis traint—theae measures would really benefit the farmers. He warned the Pro:ectionists against again ent.ring into a contest with the people, and he hoped the Irish Members would nut be induced from a feeling of irrita tionto support the motion. Mr. MOORE would support the motion, in order to give a lesson to the Minister who had insulted the tell gion of the Irish people. Lord Jour; RUSSELL thought the attempt to force forward such a motion as this, without distinctly de claring its meaning, or the intentions of those who ad vocated it, was a most dangerous step. The real but concealed object of the motion was the restoration of protection. Any attempt in that direction was full of danger, for the mass of the working classes had fully made up their minds as to the advaetages they had gained by free trade, and took a deep and vital in terest iu the question. It was most dangerous, as well as most unfair, to start such a topic, and yet not to take either one side or the other. He denied that the lauded interest bore any peculiar and weighty burdens. The policy of the present Govern ment had been to remove, as far as possible, the taxes which pressed upon labour, and to that policy they were determined to adhere. Mr. DISRAELI replied, and Mr. MtTNTZ and Mr. GRENALL briefly stated that they should support the motion. The House then divided, when the numbers were— For the motion Against it Majority -14 It has been reported, but we trust untruly, that the Bishop of LICHFIELD has so far yielded to the solicitations of his Puseyite clergy as to intend to absent himself from the discussion on the Bill to legalise marriage with the sister of a deceased wire, the Bill being founded upon the unanimous report of the Commission, of which he was himself the head ! The Episcopal Bench have little popularity to lose, and if this course is to be pursued by them they will do their best to widen that breach between the clergy and the laity, which Lord ASHLEY described on Monday night as being very wide already. In 1835, when a highly popular member of the nobility con tracted a marriage of the kind, it was legalised forth with, no single individual of the Bench of Bishops.ob jecting. Now, when thousands of these marriages are proved to have taken place among the poor, some of these very same Bishops either stay away, or.threaten to oppose, in the case of a poor man, that which they unanimously granted to a rich one ! The cause, however, must succeed ; it is founded in justice, and every day produces its converts. The Bishops made a similar opposition to Sir SAMUEL RoMlLL'r's efforts to amend the criminal law, yet, in spite of their efforts, we no longer see rows of men and boys hanging in the Old Bailey for stealing more than forty shillings. The Bishop of LICHFIELD is an amiable man, but be is a timid man, and lives in terror of the Puseyites. If he wishes, however, not to disgrace himself in the eyes of the country, he must act upon his well-known opinion that marriage with a deceased wife's sister is not contrary to the Word of GOD. We are glad to see, in a Lincolnshire paper, that the Bishop of LINcoLN has admitted to a gentleman at Loath, who has contracted such a marriage, that the Bible does not forbid it. The h Bis..op of LONDON says the same, as appears in the report of the Marriage Commissioners. Will these Bishops, after such an admission, persist in hanging up in our churches the table asserting that such marriages are forbidden by GOD? The Bishop of LICHFIELD will be closely watched in this matter, and his character depends: on the course which he now takes. We shall recur to the subject.

I OW-STREET.—(THIS DAY). Charles Gill, charged with having threatened to shoot Lord John Russell, was brought up for examination this morning at the Bow-street Police-court. The publication of the arrest in - the morning papers drew a large concourse of well-dressed people to the office, bnt the entrance and avenues were kept in excellent order, and the court was at no time during the inquiry inconveniently crowded. Mr. Henry sat upon the bench, and heard the case. The prisoner is a short, thickset young man, with small dark leatmes. There is nothing about the expression of his countenance to indicate insanity, but his eyes are deeply sunk in his head, and he appeared to be a man of a studious turn of mind. Mr. llEstar asked him if he pleaded guilty to the charge of threatening Lord John Russell? The prisoner said he should decline using that, and added in reply to further questions that he lived at 33, Surrey-place, 01:1 Kent-road, and was a working jeweller. Mr. Arthur Russell, the private secretary to Lord John Russell, proved the receipt of the letter containing the threat, and Inspector Field spoke to having arrested the prisoner on a warrant last night. He told the prisoner what he was charged with, and the prisoner at once admitted having written the letter. The letter was produced, and upon being shown to the prisoner he at once admitted the handwriting, and re quested that the whole of it might be read. This was done; it was simply a statement that he had made some important discoveries in the laws of gravitation and leverage, and called upon Lord John Russell to assist him in making his discovery known to the world, or he would first give him a black eye and a bloody nose, and if that did not suffice to make his Lordship sensible of the neglect with which his Lordship treated mechanical geniuses like himself, he would get half an ounce of powder, as much lead, and a pistoi4uid test the maximum power or resisting strength of his Lord ship's skull. The prisoner said he sent this letter a fortnight ago, and he should be glad to know how it was that so much time had been allowed to elapse between the receipt of the com munication and his arrest. Mr. Arthur Russell replied that the delay was caused in this way :—The letter was first sent to the Commissioners of Police and then to the solicitors of the Treasury, who, of course, took time to inquire into the matter. Mr. HENRY—Do you apprehend, Mr. i, that his Lordship goes in danger of his life from the Prime" violence? Mr. Russell said he did. The prisoner said his Lordship ought to - bar. been present to answer the question himself. had d te he r h er a i d .h b u een Mr. HENRY told hint that was not at all necessary; and answer to the charge ? asked him if he had anything to say I and even Mr,, Cobctns - T ob h t e a p in ri p so u l t e l r ic s it a y id bugged by the Astronomer Royal , ea. lend t - h of the peon ey, as who called himself the friend well poor man_n discovered anything as Lord John Russell , Mr. _engineers of eminence, and the promoters of the Great E xhibition, were ityog:ethbeern.eh himself his country, he could for h s h i o s bj invention, e s tct,eipnha writing n s t o f i nonargn:thhee other If a from those who p ro fessed obtain no assistance . to patronise allthat humbug' m,a s llikely community driven him to this expedient, the mec hanical ingenuity of the day, and it was the negli gence or want of supporthat had n d the part of this arrogant class Lord d f bjroihnnginßgushsiesl li,nvheenmti,oo •unldintnoottmetorietilyit bid Ili e nr r gp a ol4 g se ainst him ; and if he had read the letter atten nubpgre would have seen before any violence would have b tlf t vtf en rrteltiethhYin r ii:j e e sorted to, notice of it would have been given in the public papers, to whom he should have sent a copy of this letter long ago, had he not felt convinced that be would be set down for a madman, and his letter treated with tantalis ing silence.
