By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to Afford to the public, a plan of Deferred Annuities far more ailvanta zeous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording; an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure through this Society. WEEK DAYS. ~• ~.

The Committee divided We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Assembly on Wednesday passed a law re pealing the law of the 19th July, 1848, wb!ch had been passEd by the Constituent Assembly, which en acted that the education of pupils at the Polytechnic and Military schools should be gratuitous. The aris tocratic and exclusive character of these schools is thus restored, for the expenses of education at them were, before 1848, so great that none but the rich could support them. It is said that the presentation of the Bill for aug menting the salary of the PRESIDENT was a matter of absolute and urgent necessity, as the sums alotted to the maintenance of that office are exhausted, or nearly so. The Gazdt3 de France says :—We are assured that the Bid presented on Tuesday night for increasing the grant to the PRESIDENT of the Republic is made a Cabinet question, and that the Miustry will retire en masse if the Bill be not carried." .

On 'Wednesday moreivg a fatal colliery explosion happened at Little Usworth Colliery, a coal mine be longing to David Johnnasena Esq., Sunderland, by which 13 miners were killed, and tour severely injured. The pit is situated about two miles from the Washin,tton sta tion of the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway, and at the time of the accident there were 160 men in the workinge, who were changing, hence there was a double set of men upon the spot at the time. The ac cident is supposed to have been caused by the men in the south nook working firing a shot, in blowing a quantity of coal down with gunpowder, by which a ball of gas which had generated behind the seam came away, and an explosion was the consequence. As soon ail the explosion took place the men in this working ran out of their holes, for the accident was confined to this part of the pit, and made to the shaft, but being impeded in their progress by two ponies having met and blocked up the way, they were overcome by the fatal after-damp, and thirteen of them perished. As soon as the explosion was heard every exertion was made to save the lives of the unfortunate men, but it was some time before the men could get in to the rescue; when they did they were able to get four men out alive, but who were in such a condition as not to warrant much hope of recovery, and to get the bodies of the men slain up to the bank. The medical men of the district were soon upen the spot, and every assistance was rendered. The names of the men killed are George Green, H. Holland, Thomas Hall, William Jopling, two brothers by the names of Purdie, J. Nexon, Evens, Nexon, George Renshaw, Thomas Hall (no relation of the other Hall), and' two boys by the names of Blackey and Clint. The whole of the bodies were got out in three hours, and but four of them were burnt, the rest hail been choked by after-damp. The mine is in the Bentham, a very fiery seam, and at the time of-tbe accident the atmosphere was in a dangerous condition from the presence of a thunder-cloud. N. EMILE DE GIRARDIN was acquitted, OR Wed nesday, of the charge of a breach of the laws of the Press, for having published a petition, without the .printer's name. His printer, N. PLOW, was found guilty, and sentenced to a fine of 3,000 francs. The petition was printed on one of the pages of the Presse, in such a manner as to enable it to be detached from the journal, and to receive signatures. When de tached from the journal there was no printer's name to it, and this was the offence with which NISI. EMILE DE GIRARDIN and PLON were charged. .`_everal of the Paris journals publish the following paragraph :—" Lord INORMANDY came 3 esterday to Paris, and had a long conference with the Minister of Foreign Affairs. 'Tie English Ambassador also, we are informed, saw the PRESIDENT of the Republic. This diplomatist, it is known, has remained with him on the best footing, and nothing has been changed in the' affectionate nature of their intimacy. That posi tion . of Lord NORMANDY with respect to the PRESI DENT contributes to facilitate the arrangement of the difference which has cooled the cfiicial relations of the two Cabinets." The Journal des Debuts positively contradicts the statement which ins appeared in some of the Ameri can and English journals, cf a black insurrection in Guadeloupe, ending i❑ a massacre of the white popu lation. " We hare received journals from Guadeloupe and Martinique, cf the Bth May," says the Journal des Debuts, " and we can positively assert that this siuist.er rumour is altogether without foundation."

The Cologne Gazette publishes the following tele graphic dispatch, dated Berlin, sth inst. :—" The KING has passed a good night; the swelling of the foot has decrease ; the suppuration of the wound has ceased, and the healing has commenced." We find the following under date of Berlin, 3d inst., in the Cologne Gazette :—" The note which the Saxon Government has addressed to the Cabinet of Berlin, announcing that it withdrew itself from the alliance of the 26th May, after detailing facts which are already known, adds, By Article 4 of the Statute of Alli ance the Governments engaged themselves to give to the German people a constitution, according to the principles decided on between them. The execution of that engagement became impossible from the moment when a great part of Germany rejected the constitution of the Allied Govern ments. The Saxon Government bad, besides, pro tested agrinst carrying the constitution into effect in the states of the Union by a declaration in serted in the final pros:ls-verbal of the 26th May, and renewed in the Act of ratification. The delay, fixed by Art. 3 for the obligatory character of the conventions in general, having expired, it is evident that the clauses concerning the arbitral pro visional tribunal should also cease to be obliga tory. It moreover results from the different ar ticles of the statutes that the provisional ex istence of the arbitral tribunal was dependent on the existence of the administrative council. That council no longer exists. Since Hanover has withdrawn from the alliance, a change has taken place in the organi sation of the arbitral tribunal, which would alone authorise Saxony to refuse obedience to its decisions for it had only promised obedience to the tribunal organised by the statute. This note is addressed by M. BENST, Minister of F reign Affairs, to M. DE KCENN.ELIITZ, Saxon Charge d'Aff,iires at Berlin." ITALY - . D On the 26th ult., the POPE consecrated Cardinal VANNICELLI-CASONI, already named Bishop of FER RARA, and several other prelates who had been named to vacant sees.

Charge d'Affaires of the King of the BELGIANS. By a special brief the POPE has named M. MI. CARD, late secretary to Cardinal DUPONT during his mission, a commander of the Order of St. Gre gory. FIRE AND Loss or LlFE.—Last night a fire broke cut in a lodging-house in Crown-street. Soho, which has been attenecd with loss of the life of a female named M'Honey. The deceased had gone to bed, and, it is sup posed, left a candle burning by the bed-side. On the alarm being given, Engineer Uirard, from the Crown-street bri gade station, instantly reached the spot with two engines. He found the deceased in her room, burnt in a most shocking ma ,, ner, and her night clothes and bedding utterly de stroyed. The fire was soon extinguished, with considerable loss to the poor inmates, and the deceased was conveyed to the Middlesex Hospital, where she died at an early hour this morning. It is almost needless to add that none of the poor inmates were insured. ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.—Among the many uses to which the establishment of such institutions as the Polytechnic is applied for the benefit of the public may be ranked the opportunity for leading the taste of the unini tiated in art ; and although it cannot certainly be eulogised generally for its display of the fine arts, still, on sauntering over its galleries, the eye frequently comes in contact with those specimens which do credit to the artists. We are very happy to observe that the engravers and pub lishers of the best specimens send them for exhibition here, and the beau ful print of Edwin Landseer, " Waiting for the Countess," and engraved by Wass, together with Hering's " Pharoah's Horses," engraved also by Mr. Wass, cannot fail to gratify all who appreciate the beautiful manipulation of that gen tleman. Affectation cannot excite sympathy. How can you feel for him who cannot feel for himself? How can he feel for himself who exhibits the artificial graces of studied atti tude.—Eliza cook's Journal.

On Saturday, Professor Faraday concluded his course of lectures at the Royal Institution. Com bustion, in its various modes, having formed the sub ject of the preceding lectures, the course was very ap propriately wound up by the consideration of "ashes." The ashes which remain after all the combustible parts of the fuel are consumed, may generally be found in the fuel before it is burned, but other parts of the ashes are the actual product of combus tion, and not th e re f use . V ar i ous spec i mens were exhibited of the as h es o f diff erent com b ust ibl es . The professor ente re d a t cons id era bl e l engt h i nto the history of ashes, for the purpose of showing what becomes'of the clearings out of dust-holes, and the many uses to which they are applied. After the sepa ration cf old pieces of metal, bones, skins, and other heterogenous substances, each of which has its sepa rate value, the actual ash that remains is employed for manure, and the making of bricks. The value of this material varies considerably according to the de mand for brick-making, for which purpose it is pe culiarly adapted, and when the demand is great, a dust contractor Will obtain as much as 203. per cha?- dron for the sifted refuse ; at other times the price falls as low as ls. the chaldron. The ashes of most plants consist principally of silica ; it serves to support them and to give the stalks and leaves their necessary strength. The amount of silica con tained in wheat straw is equal to 67.90 part s i n every one hundred; while the quantity in the grain itselt is only 1.18. The silica in the straw may be made apparent by .being converted into glass by combustion, as Prefessor Faraday exhibited by burn ing a straw in the flame of a spirit-lamp, and produc ing as the result a small globule of glass. The proportion of silica differs considerably in various classes of Omits. Rushes contain less than wheat straw, while canes, on the contrary, abound in it so much that the inside of a bamboo cane frequently contains considerable accretions of that substance in a pure state. It is to ashes that we are indebted for some extremely valuable products of nature. The vege table alkali (putass) for example, is derived from the combustion of plants, and the Professor illustrated the production of the vegetable alkali by rubbing the ashes of wood and straw over moistened turmeric paper, which exhibited a dark brown mark, indicat ing the presence of an alkali. By treating the ashes of sea-weed in the same way a similar effect was pro duced, the alkali formed in this instance being soda. These alkalies, it is well known, were discovered by Sir Humphrey Davy to be oxides of metallic bases, possessing many properties alike ; the peculiar characteristics of the two being that they inflame on comihg into contact with water: Potassium being the lighter, floats and burns on the surface of *ater, sodium sinks to the bottom, and as it rapidly absorbs the oxygen of the water the hydrogen is liberated, and may be burned by the application of a taper, a s the bubbles rise to the surface. Potass and soda may indeed be regarded as merely the ashes formed by the combustion of their metallic bases, which have too great an affinity for oxygen to be preserved uncon.. sumed in nature. That very peculiar substance, iodine, was first discovered among the ashes cf sea weed, us explained by Professor Faraday, who per formed many experiments to illustrate its remarkable properties. He pointed out numerous other in.. stunces of the importance of ashes, which, though usually considered mere useless refuse, serve many valuable purposes. Even glass may be considered as formed entirely of ashes. Among other substances which are the refuse of com bustion—therefore, "ashes "—he mentioned the vast masses of volcanic lava and meteoric stones. In conclusion, he remarked on the difficulty of find ing new subjects for illustration in a course of lectures , and he had feared that his audience would have been disappointed with the little of novelty which he had been able to bring before them. Though the sources of novelty in science Seemed to be nearly exhausted, he was happy to find, from the attendance with which they had honoured him, that the sources of their favour were not yet dried up. Tns CITY ARCHITECT.—A high compliment was paid to this gentleman on Wednesday last by the presenta tion of a valuable piece of plate, weighing 222 ounces of silver, for services which are sufficiently indicated by the inscrip tion :—" Presented to J. B. Bunning, Esq., by the coal-factors and merchants of the city of London, es a testimonial of their admiration of his genius and judgment in the erection of the Coal Exchange, and of his urbanity throughout the progress of a structure which is not more approved of by those for whose use and convenience it was designed than by the public at large, for its taste and elegance as a work of art. Anno Domini MDCCCL." The plate was presented by Mr. Harrie, as the organ of the coal-factors, with an appropriate speech. In addition to this pleasing compliment to Mr. Bunning the coal-factors and merchants have signed a declaration for presentation to the corporation of the City of their satisfaction with all the accommodations provided for them by means of the New Coal Exchange, which they attribute to a union of talent on the part of the architect, which has enabled him to produce an edifice, which, whilst it embodies all the requirements of the coal-factors and mer chants as men of business, is, at the same time, in design, taste, and judgment, the admiration of the numerous stran gers who daily visit it as one of the chief objects of interest and of art in the city of London. ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON.—At the monthly general meeting held yesterday at the society's house in Ilanover-square, Mr. E. J. Budge in the chair, Mr. W.

The visitors from the Ist to the sth of June amounted to ROYAL ASYLUM OF ST. ANN'S SOCIETF.--The anniversary festival of this long-established charity was held un Wednesday evening at the London Tavern, and was very well attended. Viscount Fielding occupied the chair, and the proceedings were of the usual character on similar occa sions. The children of the asylum, including 180 boys and 107 girls, were introduced into the dining. hall during the evening, and their cleanly and healthy appearance excited general approbation. The Noble Chairman made i strong appeal to the benevolence of the company on behalf of the charity, and the secretary, Mr. Leeks, was able in conse quence to announce a list of subscriptions ameunting alto gether to 1,5631. Over the festivities of the evening Mr. Barker presided as toastmaster. All the arrangements cos fleeted with the dinner wero in the usual excellent style of the London Tavern. MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT, JUNE 6.—Busi ness to-day has been comparatively at a standstill. In the yarn market prices at least 1 / s d. over those of last week are demanded ; holders are firm, and hence little business ha been transacted. Twists, mule and water, partake of the advance. In the goods maiket little has been done. It. is said, however, that 40-inch shirtings for the Indian market are likely to be in demand. Madapollams and T cloths are very quiet. Skirtings are in demand, and stocks generally are light. 'fur IRON TRADE.—Trade in the South Stafford shire district continues as dormant as it has been for several months past, with little or ro prospect of improvement. Th e lire-brick trade is also very much depressed, owing in a great measure to the bad state of the iron trade. Many nail makers are perambulatinr , the streets and neighbourhood of Dudley, Stourbridge , and Netherton, in consequence of the strike to keep up the wages. It appears, from a list of the money-paying and tommy-shop masters and factors in the nail trade in the neighbourhood of Dudley, that out of the eighty-eight nail masters and factors, fifty-eight are tommy or truck-dealers, and thirty only pay their workmen in cash, Worcester Chronicle. - - Tatheprtersaendte, oesfpelteleacilldyiticahthise an article for s ome ti me The stampers a n d ot h er ci con siderednomaT.mmi o o h na s t sd f ae l siolcurbriitpsi NEEDLE:I i ol ni T t coßtofoAngdptohi goods - st n — o; n classes of workpeople have, we hear, demanded and obtained a very considerable advance in their prices.

The men then broke into open columns of companies right in front, with the ranks in open order, and the gallant Lieutenant-General went down the front and up the rear, inspecting every man, with his appointments, very minutely. The men then formed a close column in the centre, and were asked if they had any complaints to make. The Commandant afterwards visited all the barrack-rooms to witness their state, and then proceeded to the bat tery to see the detachment told off for the duty go through the ship-gun drill, under Major Phillips. The Lieutenant- General, after inspecting the kits of several of the men, taken indiscriminately from the companies, expressed himself highly pleased with all that had come under his notice. The Commandant, after visiting the children's school, went. to the offices to inspect the bocks, and ulti mately the hospital, which he was pleased to see pre sented so clean an appearance. On concluding what may be termed the interior inspection, the Lieute nant- General said he would dispense with a field-day in the afternoon, as he had so many opportunities of witnessing the efficiency of the corps when at their usual exercises :he would, however, appoint an early day to see them go through their evolutions on the Common. Sir Thomas Downman, with several of the officers of his staff, dine with the officers of the Woolwich division of Royal Marines in their mess• room in the evening. COURT CIRCULAR. OSBORNE, JUNE 6.

In order to insure the production of La Tempesia in a style of perfection worthy at once of the first lyrical establishment in Europe, and of the great maestro whose capo d'opera posterity will regard it to be, it was deter mined late on Wednesday night to have one more full rehearsal, and its production was consequently postponed to Saturday (to-morrow) evening. Lucia di Lammer• moor was therefore perfor med last evening, Madame Frezzolini appc wing as the heroine, and by her exquisite performance more than confirming the opinion which we expressed on witnessing her pertormance on Tueseay evening--that she is fur and away the best Lucia at pre sent on the stage. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. _ Herr Formes performed Leporello here last evening, for the first time at this theatre, and gave quite a new reading of the part, which added greatly to the interest which the performance of II Don Giovanni is always lure to excite. Formes does not makc of Leporello a buffoon, but a flunkey villain. " Like master like man," he seems to have taken for his motto, and carries it out to the letter, fo far as his craven fear will allow him. He is in fact a vulgar counterpart of Don Giovanni himself—as unprincipled, as sensual, as wicked—a liber tine " Jeames." Ills expression of fear in the scenes with the Commendatere ‘iere too genuine and too natural to be ridiculous, and his manner of acting up to Tamburini in the last scene of the opera, gave to it an expression of awe-inspiring terror that was felt at once to be far more in keeping with the views of the composer than the usual buffoonery. At the conclusion Formes was called for and loudly applauded, Grisi roes Donna Anna, Castellan Zerlina, Tamburini the Din, and Mario, Octavio; altogether the opera was admit ably performed. - , It p b tenve !
