NATIONAL LOAN IFU!NIT: LIFE AS-
SURANCE, AND DEFERRED ANNUITY SO.
CI ET Y.

( From the Salisbury and Wiltshire Herald.)
Without underrating the merits, or depreciating the in.
Wrests of any of the numerous establishments singly and
severally embracing similar purposes, we cannot but feel
that the appointment of a Salisbury Board of Directors
has given to the National Loan Fund, Life Assurance and
Deferred Annuity Society, " a local habitation and a
name in this city, by which its interests are to a certain
extent identified with those of our fellow-citizens : and in
referring to the advertisement which appears in another
page, it will be seen, and we doubt not readily admitted,
that this institution combines such benefits as few others
offer to the public ; and ttiis too, to such an extent that its
objects and provisions only require to be more generally
known to render its success perfect and assured. We learn
from authentic sources that within the last two months not
less than ninety-three new Policies have been effected in
the offices of this valuable Society, making an aggro.
gate of eight hundred and twelve Policies effected in little
more than twelve months !--a fact utterly unprece-
dented in the progress of such establishments. But if
we consider the advantages cffered to every class of the
community, from the man of rank and the opulent capi-
talist and gentleman, down to the industrious domestic and
the artizan, we cannot be surprised at such a result, whilst
the high respectability and personal influence of the several
members of the Local Boards throughout the kingdom,
cannot fail to secure public confidence, by affording the
best and surest guarantee for the integrity of its general
management, and the adequacy of the means to all con-
templated purposes. We would now, however, particularly
notice the Deferred Annuity Departments which well

Surely there is prudence in such an arrangement,—a be-
nefit cheaply purchased without the sacrifice of a comfort,
or even of a luxury. We observe that Local Branches have
been formed in many of the principal districts of the king.
dom, and others are forming in every considerable town ;
and we prognosticate that the Shareholders will find this
one of the most profitable investments ever made in such an
Institution.

LONDON:
TUESDAY, JULY 2, 1539.

There is a general saying at present that the Legisla-
ture has done nothing. Last night, however, in the
House of Lards, the Royal Assent was given to a
whole bushel of Bills. Franklin's story nf saying grace
over a barrel of beet, resembles that solemn act of
legislation by which the Royal Assent was given to thirty
or forty Bills in a lump. If this be the doing-nothing
of the Legislature, how fearful must be the multiplica-
tion of laws when it does something, and par-
ticularly when it is in full working activity
Countenancing the report that the Prelates are to
put themselves forward to oppose the Ministerial
plan for improving education, the Archbishop of CAN-.
TERIHTRY moved for the minute of the Privy Council,
and gave notice that he would bring forward a motion
on• the subject on Friday. To make way for the most
Reverend Prelate, Lord BeouGuam postponed his
liducation Bill from Friday till Monday. We arc not
surprised at the Prelates taking the lead against edu-
cation. Who should be most solicitous to hinder the
people from acquiring knowledge ?—Those who are
conscious of teaching false doctrines. Who should be
most anxious to retain the people in blind, uninquiring
ignorance?—Those whose whole life is a hypocritical
lie, who know that they are maintained in great
opulence on false pretences, who assume a mis-
sion on which they have not been sent, who
demand respect for performing a duty which they utterly
neglect, who know that not one of the claims they,
make to the veneration of the community will bear ex-
amination. Such arc the persons who naturally and
necessarily dread the light. Our Prelates claim, by
apostolic succession, a commission from CHRIST ; but
CHRIST commissioned his Disciples to carry glad tid-
ings to all nations, to teach the people all that he had
taught. them, which was all the knowledge he himself
possessed. He kept nothing that he knew from the
world. He was more wise than preceding Prophets,
Lut he did not say that none wiser than he were to
come after him, and that his Disciples were never to
teach anything but what he told them. They were to
tell what they saw and heard, but were not restricted to
tell only that. Accordingly PAUL, in particular, added
much elucidation and much instruction to what CHRIST
said and did. Our Prelates, however, act differently
from the Disciples of Christ, and insist that nothing
eiie shall be learned by the people that what they choose
to teach them. We, therefore, are not all surprised
that they should be the enemies of popular and general
instruction. They know that knowledge is incompa-
tible with their faiae claims ; that those who preach po-
verty, pretending to be the servants•of one who had not
a place wherein to lay his head, and pass Corn-laws to
starve their congregations and enrich themselves—who
pretend to have received a mission to instruct mankind,
and who withhold from them the most useful instruc-
tion, are the very Antichrist, and that an educated
people would at once put an end to their arrogant and
insulting dominion. Hence it is properly said of every
priest—

taking cloth and hardware from us, and thereby
compel us to pay them with gold, when our own soil
does not produce corn enough to sustain our people,
—which prevent foreigners from cultivating corn for
us, and compel us, when we want it, to give an ex-
orbitant price for it ;—is it not enough for these sa-
vages to see these horrible evils, caused by the ex-
ist►ng Corn-laws, but they must mock the sufferings
of the people, mock the ruined traders, mock the
alarmed merchants, by telling them these horrible
evils are " benefits" resulting from the admission of
- foreign corn free of duty ? Such a mockery of dis-
tress and suffering, causcd by an existing law, of
which these journalists are the advocates, seems to
us a disgrace to the journalist who wrote, and the
journalist who inserted, the paragraph.
We might with more propriety say England now
enjoys the full benefit of the Corn-laws. While
prices were low they came not, or appeared not to
' come, int) operation. It was known in fact that
they (lid slowly operate to prevent all the trade
which would have taken place between our cloth
and hardware manufacturers and the corn growers
of other countries. Now for a twelvemonth they
have come into visible and active operation, and the
result is a great scarcity, and the people, by a large
importation of foreign corn, at very high prices, are
barely saved from starving. We have had tp give
, gold for that corn, without which we could not pos-
sibly'have existed, for the people from who:n we
bought it, being supplied by their own manufac-
turers, whom our Corn-laws have forced into
flourishing existence, had no trade with us, and no
wants which our people can supply. Gold, there-
fore, was necessarily sent abroad to pay for corn—as
it is better to want gold than bread—and sent abroad
to such an extent that the coffers of the Bank
have been almost drained, and men have begun
fearfully to talk of another Bank Restriction Act.
Were Providence to inflict on us another bad har-
vest, while the Corn-laws prevent foreign nations
from growing corn for us, and while we continue to
violate the Divine commands, which clearly en-
join a mutual interchange between nations pos-
sessing different natural advantages—shutting us,
a commercial nation, out from commerce with our
best customers—what could we expect but still
greater distress, and more extensive bankruptcy,
consummated by a restriction to pay paper in gold,
and again placing all property at the mercy of the
issuers of paper
Might we not, with much more propriety, say that
the friends of the Corn-laws have now got their
hearts' wish, that a great price has been given for
corn, and the landlords and farmers are most pros-
perous ;. According to the doctrines of the advo-
cates of the Corn-laws, who affirm that the land-
lords and farmers are the best customers of the
manufacturers, whose custom must be obtained at
any price, the manufacturers ought now necessarily
to be in a most flourishing condition. The fact,
however, is that the manufacturers are now gene-
rally working at short time, that uneasiness
generally prevails, that distress amongst the
people who were to be benefited by the prosperity
of the agriculturists is very great, thus completely
falsifying the theory of those gentlemen who have
assured us that the maintenance of the Corn-laws
and the prosperity of the landlords are advanta-
geous to the manufacturers. The present condition
of the country, while the Corn-laws exist, is a com-
plete answer to those who assert that the manufac-
turers must necessarily flourish when the landlords
are getting high rents and the farmers high prices.
Lord

.or( JOHN RUSSELL and Mr. Fox MA taE
have brought in a Bill entitled " A Bill to Amend
the Laws relating to the Assessment and Collection
of Rates for the relief of the Poor, and to the Col-
lection of County, Borough, and Police Rates,"
the object of which is to place in the hands
of the Guardians all control over the rates,
with a view to their more speedy collection.
One part of this Bill seems to us most extraordi-
nary. It enables the Guardians of the Poor, or
rather the Commissioners of the Poor-laws—for
they are to have a veto—to appoint persons called
" Revisers of the Rates," who are to hear and de-
termine all appeals concerning the rates within their
own districts. Thus, in all matters concerning
rates, there will be no appeal whatever from the
authority of the Poor-law Commissioners. We
respectfully venture to suggest that this is
what is called going it too strongly. It is a
very extraordinary measure, we think, to be
brought forward at the close of the Session, when
no person is likely much to attend to business.
We have no great love of Justices' justice,
but we are afraid that Revisers' justice, armed
with powers for a special purpose, may be worse
than Justices' justice. When so many complaints
are made of the difficulties of passing measures
through Parliament, we should hope that Ministers
will not think of pressing such a Bill. We see
that it has already attracted some attention, and
some censure in the provincial Journals ; and we
apprehend that to press it now would not add to
the popularity of the Ministers.

'Tis the sweet labour of his life,
To stifle knowledge and to kindle strife."
The Corn-law-making Bishops, let us repeat, cannot
be more appropriately employed than in preventing the
progress of good and general education, and we shall
be glad to see them step forth in their true character of
haters of light. We should not be sorry to see them
succeed in such a motionas Lord STANLEY made, when
the Archbishop, carrying it to the foot of the Throne,
would no doubt receive from her MAJESTY such a spi-
rited and indignant rebuke as he would well deserve.
On the motion of the Marquis of NOR MAN BY the Ja-
maica Bill, which has been already so much discussed,
was read a second time. Tne \oble Marquis gave a
spirited description of the circumstances which had
made it necessary, and ridiculed the idea, when the
Legisit;ture had overturned th 2 whole structure of
society !)y abolishing slavery, of not providing for the
safety of colony by suspending the Legislature.
The Ear; of HAREwoon expressed his sorrow that
intentional injustice %vas committed agianst Jamaica, and
declared-that he should vote against the Bill if it were
not so modified as to introduce a conciliatory spirit
into it.

t will be seen from the Votes that the third
reading of the Bill for increasing the salaries of
the Scotch Judges, stands for to-morrow. Every
man opposed to jobbing away the public money,
should be in his place to oppose this Bill. In place
of increasing the salaries of the Judges, the present
number should be diminished nearly one-half, and
Mr. Hume's motion for the purpose should be
supported.

1 Lord BROUGHAM, though adverse to the Bill, advised
the Noble Earl to reserve his objections tor the Com-
; nEttce.
The Duke of WELLINGTos was also for conciliation,
and declared that he, should vote for the second reading
1 of the Bill with pain. He regretted to believe from
the speech of the Noble Marquis that it was his inten-
t tion to destroy the House of Assembly.
Lord GLENELG explained the circumstances which
made the present course necessary.
Viscount NatisouttNt: recommended the postpone-
ment of the debate, and vindicated the Marquis of NOR.
~ MANBY from the censure of the Duke of WLLI.INGTON:
I Lord ELLENEOROUGH, as in duty bound, entirely con-
curred with the Duke of WELLINGTON, and expressed a
i similar opinion of Lord GLENELG'S speech to that which
I the Duke of WELLINGTON had expressed of the Mar-
i quis of NorotA s sr. Finally the Bill was read a second
ttime without a division, the Tories nursing their wrath
.for the Committee.
1 . In the Commons a petition was presented by Sir
IJa.stEs GRAHAM from Glasgow, for a Gaelic Professor
in that University, and by Mr. LkavEv from an Attor
sey, corniktiaino•' of his Counsel having neglected to at-
i tend, and of a Judge having therefore refused to hear his
cause. The petitioner prayed that in, such cases the
iAttorney might plead himself.
1 In answer to a question from Lord IxoEsTAL, Mr.
k C. WOOD explained that the reported-I:n*4(44e to the
Btitish flag, which we lately copied from the Hampshire-
I Telegraph, could not be correct ; because the Vesta was
not at Vera Cruz at the time the outrage was stated to-
t have occurred. and that unfortunately two English officers
had not behaved as they ought, for they had hoisted the
1 English flag on a Mexican boat. We presume it was
a sailor's freak, and though it. brought them into con-
tact with the French squadron, it had no bad conse-
quences.
In reply to Mr. PALMER, Mr. POULETT THOMSON
stated that he thought he should not be able to bring in
any Bill this Session, to carry into effect the Report of
the Committee appointed to inquire into the causes of
shipwrecks. We approve of the reserve, for too
many Bills are brought in at the close of the Sessior.
The House went into a Committee on the Factories
Bill. After some brief objections had been stated by
Mr. WILSON PATTEN, Lord STANLEY, Lord Asti):
LET, and others, several divisions took place, and the
whole evening was occupied by this discussion. -
The House adjourned at a Quarter to Two o'Clock.

This is a regular Tory trick. It originated
while they were in power, and has been made over
to Lord JOHN RUSSELL, in Order to lower him in
public opinion. Mr. GILLON, Mr. WALLACE,
and Mr. HemE, have given notice of motions,
which we trust the friends of Reform and economy
will support by their votes.

Letters and Papers from Madrid of the 92d ult.
have reached us. The Government had remitted a
month's pay to the Army of the North, renewed
the contract for provisions for three months, and
were negotiating with the bankers of the capital a
loan of 60,000,000 of reals on the tobacco duty.
Money was, however, dreadfully scarce, and most
of the salaries of the civil servants of the Govern-
ment long in arrear. In a dispatch of the 16th
from General ESPARTERO, the evacuation of Bal-
inaseda by the Carlists is announced, but not be-
fore MAROTO had nearly ruined the defensive
works, which were very strong. The Carlists had
elected fresh works, and mounted five field-pieces
nd two mortars on a height opposite Areta, to
prevent sorties of the garrison of Bilbao.
SPAIN AND THE CORN-LAWS.
(Extract from a Letter, dated'Madrid, Joe 21.)
Amidst all the calatnltik-of tireeliirwilr, one great
blessing attends Spain this year, which is a most abundant
harvest. The fields never looked so luxuriously rich—the
wheat is already yellow; nor is this the cue only round
Madrid, which is comparatively a desert, but all over the
kingdom, as travellers and letters arriving daily from every
province assert. The coming crop, it is computed, will be
equal for four years' consumption, and sufficient for 18
months remains on hand from last year's harvest, so that
the farmers will be embarassed to house it. Many complain
already of the expense of reaping that threatens them ;
another evil they complain of is the great fall of prices,
reduced to 9 reels per fanega of 851 b., which is 221 d.
sterling ; and barley within three leagues of Madrid, stand-
ing on the fields, has been sold at 41. reels, or llid. ster-
ling per fanega (a fanega being the fifth part of an Eng-
lish quarter or eight Winchester bushels; the barley weighs

indifferent to this contempt for its authority. It is one
of the worst omens that can be manifested in a ci-
vilized State. But will the guillotine avert the evils
which it portends ? We fear not. There has been
plenty of bloodshed in France within the last 'eight
years to establish the right of LOUTS PHILIPPE to the
throne, and the title of the Peers to the highest criminal
jurisdiction, could blood at all contribute to the produc-
tion of results so desired and desirab!e. Bat blood
can do nothing of the kitid ; and least of all the blood
of fanatics who glory in dying for their principles. Let.
perpetual imprisonment and hard labour be substituted
for the guillotine, and there will be fewer aspirants for
the disticetion of overthrowing the throne of Louts
PHILIPPE.
There is no news of any interest in the Paris papers
of Sunday. The opposition journals state that the
police had circulated such rumours of another entente
being at hand, as to fill the capital with alarm, to the
great injury of the working classes, hundreds of whom
could find no employment.
Rumours of a collision between the Turkish and
Egyptian armies, in which the former was worsted,
were rife in Paris on Sunday. They require confirmaton.
The late storms appear to have been even more severe
in the south of France than in the other parts of the
country. The Journal de St. Sever in the Landes states
that a storm on the 17th ult. was so destructive in that
department, that the damage, in a single arrondissement,
is estimated at 3,000,000 francs. In the environs of St.
Sever the hail fell in such quantities, and of such size,
that 67 quails and 42 partridges were picked up abso-
lutely battered to pieces, and the whole of the poultry not
under cover during the storm was killed. Several persons
were severely wounded by the bail; and at Banos a woman
was so much injured as to be incapacitated fer work for a
long time to come. The roofs and windows of the houses
of St. Sever were nearly all broken.
" The Greek Courier of the 2d of June had announced
that the French Consular Agent at Scio had been ill.
treated by the Pacha of Munchin, who had violated his
domicile under the pretext of arresting a Greek. who it
was supposed was concealed therein. Complaints were
addressed to the Consul General of Smyrna, who thought
that he was bound to order the Commandant of the
French squadron, to depart for Scio."
The Piedmont Gazette, of the 23th of June, says on
this subject ;
" A portion of the French squadron of the Levant has
disembarked at Scio, and the Pacha, as well as the other
Turkish employes were arrested, who will be conducted to
Constantinople to ba tried. The report was current that
French Consular Agent had died in consequence of the
bad trea'ment he had endured. —Constitutionnel.
New's from Algiers of the 22d has been received. The
mail from Borneo had arrived the day before, with Col.
Dalouric who has just visited Constantine, and was going
to return to Toulon. He perfectly agrees, it is said, with
the Marshal respecting the subject which led to his mis-
sion. The Marshal's attentions seem to have been parti-
cularly attracted by the appearance of Abd.el. Bader on the
17th in the territory of Bougia. The garrison marched
out, and advanced to a river which flaws it no great dis-
tance from the town, and saw the Arabs with the Emir at
their head pass within musket-shot. Ills appear-
ance was ascribed in some measure to his desire to
levy the tribute. Another account says that the Emir
came with all his military pomp, to visit a celebrated
Marabout in that neighbaurhood. At Gigelly all was
quiet on the 13th. The thermometer indicated a heat of
27 to 28 degrres in the shade from noon till two o'clock,
from 44 to 46 degrees in the sun. The troops suffer
much from this great heat.
