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 £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in cluded, 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 premiums 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 51 per cent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : Dn. LIABILITIES.

They so porfectly resemble the natural teetli as not to bo distinguished from the ori ginals by thee' closest observer ; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful opration, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti cation. 52, Fleet-street. At home from 10 till 5. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. TUE EXPECTED LEGAL APPOINTMENTS. Speculation is already rife as to the probable law officers of the next Government, but one of our usually well-informed contemporaries has put for ward a statement which must rather astonish the community at large. It assigns the Attorney - Generalship to Mr. Coleridge, and the post of Solicitor-General is put down for Mr. Jessel, the recently-returned member for Dover. Sir Robert Collier, who has sat for Plymouth ever since 1852, and filled the Solicitor-Generalship in the C_.vernments of Lord Palmerston and Earl Russell, is unprovided for, the reason for this omission being stated to be "that neither Mr. Coleridge nor Sir Robert Collier will serve under the other." It is, however, scarcely probable that Sir Robert, who has served the Liberal party faithfully for so many years, wi" be thrown overboard at the present juncture. Mr. Jessel is evidently chosen as Solicitor-General on the ground of his being a member of the Chancery bar; but it must be remembered that there are other Liberal lawyers who come before Mr. Jessel, albeit they belong to the common-law bar. Mr. Denman has sat for Tiverton, with the exception of a few months, since the general election of 1859; and Mr. Mc '.agu Chambers is an old servant of the party. Our contemporary also refers to a rumour that Lord Romilly intends to resign, at the same time stating that although the Master of the Rolls is legally . competent to sit in the House of Commons, no judge of that court has done so since Sir William Grant. This is manifestly an (. r..or. • The present Master of the Rolls accepted that position in March 1851, when hotepte sented the borough of Devonport in Parliament. lie continued to sit in the House of Commons until the general election of 1852, when he was defeated on seeking re-election. He continued out of Parlia ment until called to the House of Lords, in 1865, by Earl Russell, although he was invited to come forward for Westminster some years since. Lord (then Sir John) Romilly declined to accede to the request s assigning as a reason that, though not am illegal. it was an unjudicial position. f, NEW PEER. Colonel McClintock, who lately contested Drogheda with Mr-Whitworth, has been raised to the vacancy hit the Irish peerage caused by the extinction of the titles of Earl of Clare, Viscount Palmerston, and the Baroness Nairn. He is Lord-Lieutenant for the Bounty of Louth, and Custos Rotolortim of Drogheda. He was M.P. for the county of Louth from 1857 to 1859, having contested it unsuccessfully in 1852. 1859, and 1865. TITE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT. We noticed the other day that the roya, arrange ments for the whiter did not. seem to include the opening of Parliament in person. A contemporary now says it is stated that this is owing " partly to its assembling following close upon the anniversary of the death of the Prince Consort, and partly to her dissatisfaction at the verdict of the constituencies being against the Irish Church." We trust that this latter rumour may have no foundation, and that, in the words of her Laureate, she may ever be able to— Keep her throne unshaken still By shaping some august decree, Broad-based upon a people's will, And compassed by the inviolate sea. THE BEACONSFIELD PEERAGE. Whatever may be the opi n ion o f th e p r ess as to the laerits of Mr. Disraeli as a statesman, the newspapers have been pretty unanimous in congratulating him upon the mark of royal favour which has been shewn his wife. It was understood that the Minister who had created a duke, besides a batch of peers, could hardly covet a peerage for himself while active work remained for him in the Lower House; and that it was in the interests of good party government that he should still general the Conservatives in the popular Chamber. Under these circumstances, the coronet bestowed upon Mrs. Disraeli was considered to be well placed, and to be a gracious act on the part of the sovereign. The Daily News has been un gracious enough to carp at it, and to see in it a sign of royal partiality. A letter now appears in the columns, of that journal seconding this view. Mr. Disraeli 's Premiership is a national dishonour in the opinion of the writer, and this peerage places her Majesty in +h position of antagonism to the peoe. e says +hat niaMinister_who_..aaroc_ for—the—ho pl Prait H A:CW:O worm expose rus sovereign to mica irmsrepre ions. There are some who are inclined to ,ute to Mr. Disraeli an unworthy way of con ,ng politics ; but it partakes of the nature of oval spite to grudge the man who has fought his / to the front through almost unprecedented Alleles the supreme happiness of conferring honour upon the estimable lady to whom he confesses he owes so much. WHO IS maul' ? .The Times asserted that it was the intention of the Premier to recommend the creation of ten or twelve peers. This is on "good authority." The Telegraph states that the report is totally devoid of foundation, and gives it "the most positive contradiction." The Observer says there is reason to believe that the Times is right. If anyone will give in a tabular form the relative value of the three terms, " good authority," "the most positive contradiction," and "reason to believe," and will further give the respeet five value of such • terms according to the columns in which they appear, that person will confer a lasting favour upon newspaper readers. The guessing which the vacancy in the soe of Canterbury caused. w as no t so successful as to .justify a similar amount of speculation upon other interesting subjects. QUASI:LIBERALS.: A contemporary notices that the band of Libera . ls pledged to oppose the disestablishment of the Irish Church will not exceed half a dozen. The only r ;presentative of an important town constituency_ who has been elected as a Liberal, and who declines to support Mr. Gladstone on this question, is Sir Robert Clifton. Of those who voted against the resolutions in April- and May last, '3lr. - Antrobus and Lord Ernest Bruce were re-elected on their promise to Support Mr. Gladstone ; Mr. Wyld, who would make no pledges, was de feated at Bodmin ; and Mr. Maxwell, Mr. Saunder son, Mr. Briscoe, and Lord Elcho have _beeii re-elected by county constituencies. It is noted that several avowed Conservatives will support Mr. Gladstone, amongst them Mr. Butler-Johnst one and Colonel Vandeleur. We question whether the classification of some of these will please the party to whom our contemporary attaches them. Although Sir Robert Clifton professes to be a Radical, the . Liberals look rather shyly at him. It wou ld be a difficult thing to settle the political status of Lord Elcho; and as for Mr. Butler-Johnstone, he is a very questionable Conservative. If the Irish Church - is made the test question, all these members must be content to change their political classification for the present. The case of - Mr. Butler-Johnstone is a curious one. When he made his first speech in the House Mr. Disraeli took occasion to pay the young man a very high compliment. A few years after, this promising orator was hitting the Premier hard. He will find an oratorical contest with Mr. Disraeli very good practice, and he must not be afraid of, some deadly blows. :':~. SOUTH-WEST LANCASHIRE. testimonial is to be presented to Mr. Gladstone It is originated by the working men of South- West Lancashire, and those who have raised them selves from the position of working men. The Liverpool Mercury has consented to receive subscrip tions of one penny and upwards. The first list of subscriptions is to be published in a few days, and though the amount may not be enormous, and the individual subscriptions small, we trust our contemporary will furnish us with such information as may give an idea of the sort of response with which this appeal meets. The great man has taken leave of South-West Lancashire not unkindly, and doubtless there are many who will willingly do all they can to shew the regret which his failure has caused. INTELLIGENT VOTERS. Some canvassers visited the Stafford workhouse to solicit an old man for his vote. He had already promised it to the other side, because his son-in-law offered if he did so to bear the expense of his funeral, so that he should not have a pauper's burial. A tradesman in Middlesex, a Liberal, was asked to vote for Lord George Hamilton. I-re promised to do so; but afterwards declined to vote at all. When pressed for his reasons, he said he had promised to vote for the Tory because the canvassers begged so hard, and he was given to understand no one else was coming forward; but finding afterwards that the whole tone of the district was Liberal, he thought it best not to vote at all. So this Issachar saved him self the trouble and annoyance of polling. Similar cases might be multiplied by the score to prove that the " voice of the people " will, though bribery and intimidation be done away, still contain a con. siderable element of self-interest and indifference. THU WORKING MAN. Now that the working man's candidate is " no. where " in the parliamentary race, he must pick up such crumbs of comfort as he can. He is not allowed to enter the precincts of St. Stephen's, but he is told that he is a very •respectable sort of person, and useful in his way. If any one wishes to know what the opinion of the Whig governing aristocracy is of the working man, a recent letter from Lord Russell to Mr. George Bowel' will enlighten him. The noble lord says : "I am sorry that you are not in Parliament. I wish Mr. Odger was there too. You might be of great use on ques tions of labour and capital, as well as on other ques tions.—l remain, your obedient servant, RUSSELL." There is not much in it ; but when it is remembered that it is penned by the chief of the " heaven-born," it is worth framing and hanging up over the working. man's domestic fireplace. FINLEN. It has been the task of naturalists to justify the existence of certain obscene and apparently useless creatures in the economy of creation. It may be that Finlen has his use in society, though upon the face of it he simply appears a gigantic nuisance. He takes possession of Hyde Park, as Herne the Hunter did of Windsor Forest, but instead of the witching midnight hour he chooses Sunday afternoon for his orgies. On Sunday, to an audience of about 200, he lifted up his voice against "an odious, alien, abhorred, bloody, brutal, unscrupulo u s ar i s to crac y." He attacked the Reform League, and accused them of misappropriating the funds of the society, and con cluded his speech by saying that the day would conic when a Parliament would assemble in Uollege-green, "with a flag floating above it with a crownless harp." Mr. Finlen denounced the Times, the Telegraph, and the Star, but praised the Standard. We congratu late that journal upon its latest admirer, but are at a loss to account for the reason . The audi ence was anything but sympathetic, and the comment fur nished by them was " Poor de v il!" E ra t ostratus gained immortality by burning the Temple of Diana ; Fuilen must try something else than setting fire to the British Constitution. He will only be known for a sho r t ti me as a man w h o b y s h eer impudence bullied the Home Secretary in his office, and came face to face with Mr. Gladstone. It is time for Finlen to retire to his den, for he must have found out that sedition is an abnormal condition of our society. TRAINING SHIPS Wilkes said, " The worst use to which you can put a man is to hang him." By parity of reason the worst use to which society can put a boy is to educate him for the gallows. Mr. James Hall, of Newcastle-on- Tyne, writes to the Times to recommend that destitute boys should be trained for the sea. He points out we have only about 5,000 fresh recruits in the shape of boys every year to feed the body of 190,000 sailors, or only about 3 per cent., whereas 8 per cent. has been estimated as the annual waste of the mer chant seamen, leaving a deficiency .of 5 per cent., or, in a body of 190,000, about 0,500 men to be annually supplied by foreigners or adults entered from the shore, Ile recommends the increase of training ships, and draws attention to the satisfactory results of the experiments already made, alluding espe cially to the 'Wellesley, in the Tyne. The suggestion is a good one, but people are not likely to look with great favour upon the sea until the ghosts of those poor boys who perished through the cruelty of the captain of the Arran arc laid. WORKSHOPS REGULATION ACT. Dr. Aldis writes to the Times to correct an error as to the intention of the - Workshops Regulation Act. "It was supposed, upon reliable authority, that twelve hours' work, besides an hour and a half for meals, making altogether thirteen-and-a-half hours, were required. Indeed, printed rules were widely circulatedto that effect, but it appears from the opinion of counsel that, although theclause relating to the hours of work and meals, if taken alone, might admit of the former meaning, yet when connected with that part of the Act relating to permanent exceptions' it would necessitate the latter." This hour and a half will bring to most young women a longer lease of life, a chance of enjoying the few relaxations which make their life tolerable, and more strength for the work they have to do. The spectacle of a girl pent up in a stifling workshop for thirteen hours and a half out of twenty-four is repulsive in the extreme. IN THE PILLORY. The recent middle-class examinations at Cambridge have elicited from the candidates for examination some of the most original and astonishing comments upon the subject of history. Their examination papers have by some means come into the hands of the Pall Mall Gazette, and vast l y funn y reading they furnish. But the Pall Mall Gazette is funny at the expense of charity, and even justice. The ini tials and numbers of the candidates are given with their answers, and in some cases even the Christian name of the boy and the town in which he lives. We cannot understand by what right these examination papers are published at all ; but to proclaim the identity of the writers is manifestly cruel and unjust: The examiners of our universities tell some funny tales of the wonders of the undergraduate mind, but, they have the goQ4 taste not to ticket the individual cvr oitf• ph °
