The proprietors will no doubt remember that at the last annual general meeting a report was made to them for the quinquennial period then terminating, and that a bonus was declared in respect of it amounting to the sum of £208,774. The surplus fund account, as under, commences with the balance of June, 1867, after deduction of this bonus—that is to say, with the debit of £772,740 13s. 9d. SURPLUS FUND ACCOUNT, 30TH JUYE, 1868.

THOMAS ALLEN,} Auditors. HENRY ROSE, • The total income of the year, it will be seen, is £544,466 9s. 2d., and the total outgo £409,654 14s. sd. ; the diffe rence, or the sum laid by—viz., £134,811 14s. 9d.—raises the fund again to £907,552 Bs. 6d. The interest received during the year is £117,584 7s. 3d., arising from the productive portion of the realised assets of £2,897,157, mentioned in the last year's report. The whole assets, productive and unproductive, may there fore be considered as having improved at the rate of rather more than 4 per cent. ; or, if the profit shown of £16,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in eluded, at upwards of £5 12s. per cent. The premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. 9d., and of this sum £3,270 15s. 4d. has been expended in re .assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly iden tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than those of last year by nearly £19,000. • A considerable reduction, too, appears in the amount of preininms paid for re-assurance, many of the risks re-assured having terminated by death and other causes. The expenses of management are less than those of last year by upwards of £1,400. But they still include charges incurred in the final closing of the two officeslast absorbed by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in cluding income tax, is at the rate of little more than 5 per rent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : Dn. LIABILITIES. Interest due to proprietors Claims on decease of lives assured, and additions thereto unpaid Sundry accounts Liability under sums assured, &c.

THOMAS ALLEN,} Auditors. HENRY ROSE, The present disposition of the Company's funds is shown by this account. On ccmparing it with that of 1867, it will be observed that further investments have been made on mortgage and in the Government funds, and that about £ll,OOO inure has been advanced on security of the com pany's policies. Exclusive of the sum indicating the value of the future premiums, the assets amount to £3,059,030 3s. 3d. The direction of the company is now constituted as follows : The Right Hon.

Commence at 7. sion was for his withdrawal, without their adducing ne single reason why they should ever have come to any such decision from that time to this. Yet even there our sympathy with that candidate as a repre sentative man who was being distinctly ill used by being unmistakeably snubbed, was soon enough set aside by himself, as a feeling quite uncalled for, by reason of the spleen evidenced by himself and his " entourage" in making way for Sir HENRY HOARE as the second Liberal candidate, now the second Liberal representative of the new metropo litan borough of Chelsea. So, too, has it been with those other forlorn protegeerof Mr. MlLL—the rest of the working men's candidates—every one of whom, like Mr. MILL himself, has been refused admittance into the House of Commons by the popular consti tuency each appealed to. The electors' manner of rejection in regard to each has been rather after the fashion of " Much obliged, but we would rather not." Your genuine working man has about as much chance, apparently, of being returned to serve in Parliament as that " poor chap in a sleeved waistcoat," Dr. MARIGOLD, the Cheap-Jack, ever had of finding himself some fine morning transformed on the public market place into he political Dear Jack, vaunting his wares not on the board of a cart, but on the boards of a hustings. Even the humbler class of electors, those nearly upon level with Mr. Lowe's and Mr. BRIGHT'S dreaded " residuum," appear to have no hesi tation whatever—not an instant's—in still pre ferring an educated gentleman. Evidence of this is shown by the lists (upon both sides) of the various candidates. Scarcely a tradesman is there on either catalogue. Each has a sprinkling of ma nufacturers. But the majority, with each, mainly consists of Etonians, Rugbians, University men of Oxford, Cambridge, Dublin, or London, Barristers and Country Gentlemen, officers in the army, or men of mark from one or other of the learned professions. All which is significant enough of the fact that if this last Reform Bill was, in truth, as Lord DERBY called it, a leap in the dark, it was a leap of no very formidable character, and one that has landed us, now that we have taken it, upon ground as solid and as familiar as that upon which we were standing but yesterday.

EDMUNDS YOUNG Oxford has not fared so well at the elec tions as we could wish. Mr. GOSCHEN has indeed retained his position at the head . of the poll in the City; Mr. MORRISON his seat at Plymouth; Mr. GRANT DUFF his at Elgin; and Mr. BUTLER-JOHN STONE his at Canterbury, albeit he has deeply angered his former supporters by refusing to follow Mr. DISRAELI. But among the new candidates belonging to this party there has been almost unalleviated defeat. Perhaps the most gallant fight in the whole country, and one which Oxonians watched with the greatest interest, was that which Mr. GEORGE BRODRICK waged against the Duke of MARLBOROUGH in his pocket borough of Woodstock. It was indeed a close run, far closer than could be satisfactory to the PRESIDENT of the COUNCIL, for at the close of the poll Mr. BRODRICK was only twenty-two votes behind the ducal nominee, whom he may, perhaps, yet succeed in unseating on the ground of undue influence. At the adjacent borough of Abingdon another Balliol man and first-class classic, Mr. GODFREY LUSHINGTON, made a less close run with Lord OVERSTONE'S son in-law, and was beaten by 396 votes to 324. Mr. ROUNDELL is another of the young University Liberals, who, it is said, has made one of the ablest speeches during the elections, and who vainly tried to unseat Mr. ASSIIETON at Clitheroe. Sir GEORGE YOUNG was equally unsuccessful in unseating Mr. GOLDNEY at Chippenharn. Mr. THOMAS BRASSEY, we believe, reckons himself among the illuminati, and he alone has succeeded. We fear Young Oxford is still before the age. It must educate the constituencies by its writings before it can secure their votes.

Mr. MILL was profuse in his recommendations ; he recommended Messrs. ()DOER, BRADLAUGH, CREMER, HOWELL, RAWSON, CHADWICK and FAWCETT. Only one of these, Mr. FAWCETT, has been elected ; he, indeed, did not require a character, yet even he has won by a very narrow majority. But all the other candidates whom Mr. MILL recom mended either withdrew without going to the poll, or were defeated by majorities large in every case except that of Mr. RAWSON, at Salford, while as a climax Mr. MILL himself is not elected. Mr. BRIGHT was far more cautious, but even his indi rect and oblique recommendations have proved of little avail. For instance, Mr. ERNEST JONES has been defeated at Manchester, and Mr. Cossnam at Dews bury. On the other hand, he has the satisfaction of seeing his brother returned for Manchester, and one brother-in-law (Mr. LEATHAM) at Huddersfield, and another (Mr. M`LAREN) at Edinburgh. It must somewhat mar the satisfaction which these elections cause him, that he himself was only third on the poll. This is one of the most remarkable incidents of the election, and was probably due to the efforts which were made to prevent any votes being thrown away for him at the expense of the other Liberal candidates.

K NA RESBOROVOR KENDAL LAMBETH LEEDS LEICESTER LEOMINSTER LUDLOW LONDON CITY LONDON UNIVERSITY LYMINGTON LAUNCESTON LINCOLN COOL !—A few evenings ago a charming incident occurred suggestive of how the roughs of London ought to be dealt with. The scene was the neigh bourhood of Theobald's-road. The time about 10.30 p.m. A young gentleman, whose name we are tempted to give, for he really deserves it —in age about 21, slight in proportions, but in stature a trifle over six feet—is suddenly confronted by two hulk ing fellows fully his own height, but of broader build, men seemingly (judging from their dress) in the position of life of navvies, one of whom turns spokesman, with—" I'll trouble you, Governor, for the time ?" Whereupon our young friend, holding out his gold watch to them in his left hand, but—immediately over it—withhiaright presenting towards them the muzzle of a six-shooter revolver, replies with the utmost nonchalance, " I'm rather short-sighted ; look for yourselves !" Navvies—in stanter—skedaddle. The incident we have here re lated is a literal fact, and one but of yesterday's oc currence. It is worthy, as we conceive, of being thus recorded, iand—when occasion may require— of being emulated by those who are cool hands enough for such adventure. For, the truth of the matter is, Sir Richard Mayne and his policemen leave us very much to ourselves. Prince Arthur, having lately received a commis sion in the Royal Artillery, is now getting some of his military training in Woolwich garrison in field artillery service, and the arrangements mentioned above will afford him an opportunity of gaining practical instruction.

The Court held that his lordship was liable with regard to the shares, as no priority of contract:had been shown by the counsel for his lordship, that the contract made with Cotton was in fact with Lowe, and that he was not at liberty to disclose the name of an indirect principal.

And of these-129 are Ministerialists, and 247 Opposi tionists. Showing that—as yet—the advantage ac corded to the Liberals by the appeal to the country is one giving them a clear majority upon that num ber over the Conservatives of 118 altogether. But then, these for the most part are the results of the borough elections. There be "pippins and cheese" to come yet for the Government, in the shape of the counties. And even here in regard to the borough elections, there can be no doubt of it that much may be said on both sides in the way of exultation. The Gladstonians have wrested a great number of seats from their antagonists. The Disraelites, on the other hand, have signalized their success in a remarkable manner by ousting some of the most im portant of the Liberal candidates and by replacing them with staunch Conservatives as representatives of first-class constituencies. In the City of London, Mr. BELL has been returned in place of Baron ROTHS CHILD. In the City of Westminster, Mr. SMITH, of the Strand, has headed the poll even in the teeth of all the great Marquis's influence, and more than that, has driven f firth ignominiously, as a man utterly rejected and cast aside, that vaunted champion of the most advanced opinions, Mr. JOHN STUART MILL, the Positive, the very Positive, Philosopher. Manche 3t2r has returned —at the bottom of the poll Mr. JACOB BRIGHT, the brother of th 3 member for Birmingham ; at the Op of thc p)11 M. BIRLEY, an out-and-out Constitutionalist. Liver pool, out of its three members, has returned two Conservatives. Bewdley, in selecting its one me►n ber, has in Sir R. Gt. ass chosen a follower of Mr. DISRAELI in preference to a disciple of Mr. GLAD STONE. Bolton and Boston have each yielded a gain of one seat to the Government. Chester, in the per son of Mr. RAIKES, has accorded a Tory colleague to the Liberal Earl GRO3VENOR. Coventry has done the like by linking Mr. STAVELEY HILL to Mr. EATON, thereby coupling a resolute Liberal with an equally resolute Conservative. Malmesbury is a clear gain of one seat to the Government. So also, for that matter, is Norwich, and so, too, Nottingham. A Tory replaces a Whig at Pembroke. at Ports mouth, and at Preston. And so on, and sa on. The list might be lengthened out to very respectable dimensions. Only, there is a catalogue of losses to the Government of a far lengthier charac ter. Numerically the losses of the Ministry are more considerable. But only numerically. The import ance of the seats won to the Opposition, is in no pro portion to the importance of those secured to the Government candidates. But, counting heads, or noses as the odd phrase is, the advantage is, be yond much doubt, with our own side, with the Liberal Opposition. It will be advisable, however, before any distinct calculations are adven tured upon, as to the actual results of the General Election, to wait until the General Election is really over. A very few days, a very few hours, so to speak, and the roll or the . new Parliament will be filled up. We can afford to wait patiently for this brief interval, satisfied already that the country has spoken with no uncertain voice. Glancing down the lists of the accepted and re; e tel candidates, we grieve to recognize several old familiar names among the latter —names of men who will he sorely missed upon the reassembling of the New House of Commons on the 10th of December. A veteran reformer like Mr. ROEBUCK, we sincerely re gret to observe among the rejected. And, if the Cabinet has the chagrin of noticing that a seat has been refused to both the Attorney-General and the Solicitor-General, the chiefs of the Opposition will very seriously miss the presence among them of the Right. Hon. T. MILNER GIBSON. As for Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE'S rejection by Nottingham it is simply bewildering. It appears to have taken every one, himself included, by surprise. And he accepts his failure with such delightful good-humour that we more than ever hope a seat may be opportunely found for him somewhere else. The House of Commons will miss him. Ile must by hook or by crook be returned to it smeho ; and whenever ho is so returned, his coming back to his old haunts do ma at Westminster, will be matter, we sincerely believe, for very general satis faction. It is deeply to be regretted that the working men's candidates have made so sorry an exhibition of them selves upon the occasion of this first appeal to the enlarged constituencies. Of Mr. BRADLAUGH it would be satisfactory to know that we should never hear again. Mr. ODGER, we still conceive, was rather badly used by the three referees whose deci- THE NEW PARLIAMENT.

THE BRAZILS. RIO DE JANEIRO, OCt. 23. Advices have been received from the seat of war to the 10th instant. On arriving at Villeta the Allies found the Paraguayans fortified in a very strong position, where the natural defences of miles of swamps, thick woods, and a deep river, whose waters form a far more effective barrier than any which the skill of military engi neers could construct. These difficulties preclude the possibility of an attack from the south ; but as the ironclads have passed beyond the batteries erected on the river side, it is supposed that the Marquis of Caxias will divide the forces under his command, and send an army of 16,000 men over to the Chaco, whence they will march up the right bank of the river Paraguay, and recross near As sumption, to attack Lopez from that quarter, at the same time that a force is to be sent to march round the swamps, and thus hem in the Paraguayans on every side. This course would immediately bring the war to a close; but it is found that before these measures can be taken they will have retired to occupy some other position for a few days, perhaps Villa Rica or Serra Leon in the interior. At Villeta there was some hard fighting between the advance guard of the Brizilian . armi and some Paraguayan troops, who were defending a bridge across a small river and a redoubt. Both, however, were taken, and the Paraguayans forced to retreat, leaving their colours and a quantity of arms ; the Brazilians suffered severely, as they fell into an ambuscade and received a tremendous volley at a very short range, which threw one of the infantry corps into such confusion that they turned, and were fallen upon by cavalry before they could rally. A court-martial was held upon the Lieutenant-Colonel commanding, who was acquitted, but the corps has since been dissolved, and the officers and men dis tributed among the other battalions of infantry.

In last week's Tablet we read—ln addition to Mr. and Mrs. Pye, the daughter of the Bishop of Oxford, we have to record the reception into the Church of Captain Pye, which took place in Staf fordshire on Sunday last. On Monday, Mr. J. M. Bellew, with his wife and family, made their sub mission to the Church. Mr. Pye, in leaving the Anglican communion, was called upon to give up a stall in the Cathedral of Lichfield and a rich family living. Mr. Bellew also has had to resign the in cumbency of one of the London churches, the value of which is estimated at £l,OOO a-year. In the literary world Mr. Bellew has earned a high and well-merited reputation as one of the most accom plished and telling public readers of the day. In the course of one month during the present year 104 persons were received into the Church in London alone. In the Tablet for the present week we find, in fur ther illustration of the above, the following : " We have to record the reception into the Church of a Protestant community in Market Harborough, Leicestershire. Four pious ladies, devoting them selves to the education of a number of orphan girls after having carefully examined their religious dif ficulties, were received into the Church by the Rev. F. Buckler, O.P. The brother of one of these ladies, Mr. Douglas, a clergyman of the Church of England, hastened to remonstrate with them on the step they had taken; but, upon further examina tion of their motives, he ended by taking the step himself. He has now entered the English College at Bruges. The ladies offered to send home the fourteen orphans under their charge; but their guardians and relatives declined to recei v e them, expressing their perfect satisfaction that they should be brought up in the faith of their teachers. Nothing can be less desirable than the circulation of doubtful reports ; but it is right that we should mention the more notable conversions which take place from time to time, not in any unworthy spirit of triumph, and far less in order to inflict pain or annoyance on those who conscientiously reject the Catholic religion. We do so for a dis tinct purpose—as an example of disinterested ad herence to the dictates of conscience, and as an encouragement to those numerous persons who are actually on the threshold of the Catholic Church. The domestic and social persecution which maul converts have to suffer, is a subject of constant sorrow and sympathy. We gladly, however, render this justice to the larger portion of the London Press, and to the higher walks of public life, by saying that they neither ostracize nor brand men for their conscientious convictions." Mr. Wallis, ex-Editor of " The Tablet•" A proposition has been made to present to Mr. Wallis, the late proprietor of the I ablet, some kind of substantial token of the respect and esteem ill which he is held by his numerous friends. Having become by bona fide purchase the sole and indepen dent proprietor of the lablet, there is nothing to restrain us from rendering our free and disinte rested testimony to the services of Mr. Wallis, nor is there any surviving relation in Mr. Wallis to the goblet which should prevent his accepting it at our hands. Mr. Wallis has always shown an unswerving fidelity to the Holy See ; he was among the first to defend the doctrine of the Temporal Power, when there were few among us who had then Inas' tered its true import and necessity. He has from the first moment he entered upon the editorship of the Tablet borne fearlessly before the people of this country his testimony to the doctrines of the Catholic Church. He has never for a moment tam pered with heresy on the one hand ; and, on the other hand, he has never poured out venom and bitterness upon souls that were groping after the truth, and endeavouring to console themselves in the delusion that their communion formed part of the Church of God. or are these titles to our gratitude surprising in one of Mr. Wallis's antece dents. The circumstances which led to his connec tion with the T ablet may not now be fresh in the memory of our readers; we shall, therefore, briefly recall them. When Mr. Lucas passed away from his labours, there seemed to be no one left capable of filling the post which he had created in the Catholic journalism of the country. Mr. Wallis was then in the prime of life ; a lengthened course of legal studies had bees completed ; he bad been called to the bar, and was actually following circuit with equals who are now en' joyiug the high honoursof their profession. His read' . ness of speech and command of language, the keen ne.is of his perception and a well-developed legal mind, laid before him the promise of a future which would have been enough to fascinate a calmer els than his. But there are turns in the path of life which no man can foresee, and so it happened with Mr. Wallis. His friends came around him, suggest' ing to him another course. They felt that if he de' voted those talents, which were already beginning to attract attention, to the cause of Catholic jour' nalisrn, a great service might be rendered to the Catholics of this country, and a great loss, is part at least, supplied. Nor was it only th e personal friends of Mr. Wallis who pressed upo n him the adoption of this new career, but those also who had the Church's interest most at heart approved the choice and encouraged lis e to embark upon it. Mr. Wallis was not s Catholic to close his eyes to the great interests of his Church, nor to place his own personal and pro' fessional aims before the claims of religion. Never' theless, slowly and reluctantly he gave way befor e the opinion of his friends, and determined to lea° the profession of his choice for the hazardous as; dertaking of a weekly journal. In this he has spel the best years of his life, and so far as those gre et prizes which the legal profession offers to its f 0 1 ". lowers are concerned, Mr. Wallis's chances are gone' His chances are gone, and the Tablet has been no equivalent for the sacrifices he has made. We do not intend to enter upon any appreciati on of the political line which has characterized Al f. Wallis's career as a journalist, nor to pass sentence upon the ecclesiastical policy which has marked th e latter years of the Tablet. We feel that, in spite ° whatever divergencies we may recognise in the° from the path which we have traced out for onr selves, Mr. Wallis is entitled to any public reesg; nition of his services which his friends may decid e on giving him. Whatever errors in judgment gf: Wallis may have committed—and who is not lia ble to err ?—they have not been committed on the 01 `1 0 of subserviency to general opinion, or in the inter es of his own paper ; for he must have been well swab© b that by the advocacy of his own peculiar views 1 forfeited much support which he might most eas ll o l have retained, and alienated many who had been " friends. Whatever his conclusions, they were al ways honestly formed and expressed, and see cu.P .A 10'.• parried with an exposition of such reasons as bad him to adopt them. e We shall therefore be happy, so far as it lies, s our province to do so, to further the proPs s- b , which Mr. Wallis's friends have made, and to ss,t scribe to any testimonial which it may be t hong fit to present. —Tablet.
