DEFERRED ANNUITIES.
By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous 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 premiunis, 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 cat secure
through this Society.

The POLICIES are INDEFEASIBLE and INDISPUTABLE,
ate Company being prohibited, by the 54th clause of their Deed of
Constitution, which is duly registered in terms of the Act, from dis-
puting a Policy upon any ground whatever.
The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and
are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify.
HALF PREMIUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the
premiums. with interest of the retained halves, is required to be p aid
for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the
convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form
a deduction from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As-
surance may be relinquished at any time without payment
of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to
assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate,
and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice.
WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the security
of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the
assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits.
Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a
specified age, or at their death, whichever shall first occur.
PARTNERSHIP POLICIES are granted, whereby ajoint assurance
effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in-
vested, On the death of either, the survivor is benefited by retain-
ing the whole capital, and the representatives of the deceased obtain
their share without having to wait until it can be recovered from
outstanding debts.
There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the
equator.
No Admission or Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge
made for the Policy beyond the amount of the Stamp.
Claims are payable within three months after proof of the death of
the assured life.

MELANCHOLY AND FATAL ACCIDENT.—It is with
deep regret we have to announce a fatal accident which
occurred to John Neame, Esq., of Selling Court, near
Faversham, on Wednesday last, about five o'clock in the
afternoon. He was driving home from lekham to his
residence, accompanied by his youngest daughter, and
when descending Fish Pool Hill, the horse commenced
kicking, and becoming alarmed, ran away, and precipi-
ta,ed the vehicle, with Mr. Neame and his daughter,
over the chalk embankment at the bottom of the hill.
Mr. Neame received such severe inward injuries as de-
fied the skill of his medical attendants, and expired on the
following morning, soon after reaching home. His
(laughter, we are happy to say, escaped with some slight
bruises. Mr. Neame was a man greatly respected, and
his loss will be deeply felt in this neighbourhood, not
only by the poor and distressed, to whose wants he was
ever keenly alive, and always lent a helping hand, but
by those of his own station in life, to whom he had en-
deared himself by his utwaried hospitality, and the kind
consideration he ever manifested towards such as
sought his counsel or assistance. He had long occupied
a prominent position at the head of the tenant farmers,
whose interest on all occasions he spared no expense or
pains to advance, and was invariably deputed by them
whenever a representative was needed in other parts of
the country or in the metropolis, to advocate their in-
terests. And from the essential service which he ren-
dered on those and, indeed, all occasions, but especially
when the interests of his brother agriculturists were at
stake, we may truly say we could have better spared a
better man. The sad and afflicting event throw a gloom
over all Canterbury and its neighbourhood on Thursday
last.— Canterbury Journal.
EXTENSIVE EMBEZZLEMENT BY A RAILWAY
STATION MASTER.—CHESTERFORD, SATURDAY.—The
ma .ter, Robert Jones, of the railway station here, on
the Eastern Counties line, has been apprehended on
suspicion of being concerned in an eeteasive system of
embezzlement. He had been fee some years in the
service of the company, and previously to joining this
station filled a responsible office at the Shoreditch
terminus. He underwent a lengthened examination
before the ltev. Mr. Graham and other magistrates, at
Ilketon, a small village near this place, the station being
in that parish. One case gone into showed that it was
his duty to collect the moneys for the passet.gers' tickets
and goods, and forward the cash to Mr. N. Davis, the
accountant of the company, at Shoreditch. On the 21st
of July he received 111. Si. 7d. for passengers, and
141. 1 ls. ld. for goods—in all 251. 16s. Bd., but only re-
mitted 121.103. to the accountant, leaving a deficiency of
131. 63. Bd. it was stated that on that day he had en-
tered in the train-book as having received in notes
151.; gold, 71.; silver, 103; whereas he had only forwarded
in notes Si.;gold, 71.; silver, 10s. Other cases being gone
into. Mr. &opt., a solicitor, we believe of Cambridge,
made an appeal to the Bench on behalf of the accused.
The magistrates decided, however, on committing him
for trial. He had been master of this station for nine-
teen months, and was well known to the frequenters of
Newmarket as being very attentive to the safe convey-
ance of the race horses, &c. The station is near the
Newmarket junction. It is said that his defalcations
amount to 2001.

THE ATTEMPTED PARRICIDE AT CHISWICK.—Mr.
Monkhouse still lies in a state of great danger, but up to
a late hour last evening no unfavourable symptoms had
manifested themselves. Mr. Bowling and his partner,
Mr. Halford, are in daily attendance on him.
SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—A man, named Richard
Daniel, furnace-man, at Ystalyfera, was severely hurt
whilo cutting off the end of a hand•bar (in the smith's
shop). The bar bounded red hot, from the anvil, and
unfortunately stuck into his thigh. The unfortunate
man applied both his hands to the seething bar, in trying
to withdraw it, by which he burnt them in a shocking
manner.—Bristol Journal.

WIDDIN (TURKEY), SEPT. 20.
Your Excellency is, no doubt, already informed of
the fall of my country—unhappy Hungary, assuredly
worthy of a better fate.
It was not prompted by the spirit of disorder, or
the ambitious views of faction ; it was not a revolu-
tionary leaning which induced my native country to
accept the mortal struggle maintained so gloriously-,
and brought, by nefarious means, to so unfortunate
an end.
Hungary has deserved from her kings the his •
toricsl epithet of "generous nation," for she never
allowed herself to be surpassed in loyalty and faith
ful adherence to her sovereigns by any nation in the
world.
Nothing but the most revolting treachery, the
most tyrannical oppression, and cruelties unheard of
in the words of history—nothing but the infernal
doom of annihilation to her national existence, pre-
served through a thousand years, through adversities
so numerous, were able to rouse her to oppose the
fatal stroke aimed at her very life, to enable her to
repulse the tyrannical assault of the ungrateful
Hapsburghs, or to accept the struggle for life, honour
and liberty forced upon her. And she has nobly
fought that holy battle, in which with the aid of
Almighty God she prevailed against Austria, whom
we crushed to the earth, standing firm even when
attacked by the Russian giant in the consciousness of
justice, in our hope in God, and in our hope, my
Lord, in the generous feeling of your great and glo-
rious nation, the natural supporter of justice and
humanity throughout the world.* But this is over :
what tyranny began has been by treacheryconcluded:
on all sides abandoned, my poor country has fallen,
not through the overwhelming power of two great
empires, but by the faults, and I may say the treason,
of her own sons.
To these untoward events, I pray God, that my
unhappy country may be the only sacrifice, and that
the true interests of peace, freedom, and civilization
through the world may not be involved in our un-
happy fate.
Mr. Francis Pulsky, our diplomatic agent in Lon-
don, has received ample information as to the cause
of this sudden and unlooked-for change in the affairs
of Hungary, and is instructed to communicate it to
your Excellency, if you are graciously pleased to
receive the same. It is not antipathy to Austria,
though so well merited at the hands of every Hun-
garian, but a true conviction which makes me say,
that even Austria has lost far more by her victory,
gained through Russian aid, than she would have lost
in merited defeat through honourable arrangement.
Fallen from her position of a first-rate power, she has
now forfeited her self consistency, and has sunk into
the obedient instrument of Russian ambition and of
Russian commands.
Russia only has gained at this sanguinary game :
she has extended and strengthened her influence in
the east of Europe, and threatens already in a fear-
ful manner, with outstretching arms, not only the
integrity, but the moral basis of the Turkish empire.
May it please you, my Lord, to allow me to com-
municate to your Excellency a most revolting con-
dition which the Turkish Government, at tha sugges-
tion of Russia, is about to impose upon us poor
homeless exiles.
I, the Governor of unhappy Hungary, after having,
I believe, as a good citizen and honest man, fulfilled
to the last my duties to my country, had no choice
left me between the repose of the grave and the inex-
pressible anguish of expatriation.
Many of my brethren in misfortune had preceded
me on the Turkish territory. I followed thither in
the hope that I should be permitted to pass to Eng-
land, and there, under the protection of the English
people—a protection never yet denied to persecuted
men —allowed to repose for a while my wearied head
on the hospitable shore of your happy island.
But even with these views I would rather have
surrendered myself to my deadliest enemy than to
cause any difficulties to the Turkish Government,
whose situation I well knew how to appreciate, and,
therefore did not intrude on the Turkish territories
without previously inquiring whether I and my com-
panions in misfortune would be willingly received
and the protection of the Sultan granted to us.
We received the assurance that we were welcome
guests and should enjoy the full protection of his Ma-
jesty the Padisha, who would rather sacrifice 50,000
men of his own subjects than allow one hair of our
heads to be injured.

It was only upon this assurance that we passed
into the Turkish territory, and according to the
generous assurance we were received and tended on
our journey, received in Widdin as the Sultan's
guests, and treated hospitably, during four weeks,
whilst waiting from Constantinople further orders as
t) the continuation of our sad journey to some distant
shore.

Even the Ambassadors of England and France, to
whom I ventured in the name of humanity to appeal,
were so kind as to assure me of their full sympathy.
His Majesty the Sultan was also so gracious as to
give a decided negative to the inhuman pretensions of
our extradition demanded by Russia and Austria.
But a fresh letter from his Majesty the Czar
arrived in Constantinople, and its consequence was
the suggestion sent to us by an express messen-
ger of the Turkish Government, that the Poles and
Hungarians, and in particular myself, Count Casimir
Bathiany, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary
under my government, and the Generals Messaros
and Perczel (all present here), would be surrendered
unless we chose to abjure the faith of our forefathers
in the religion of Christ and become Mussulmans.
And thus five thousand Christians are placed in the
terrible alternative either of facing the scaffold or
of purchasing their lives by abandoning their faith.
So low is already fallen the once mighty Turkey,
that she can devise no other means to answer or
evade the demands of Russia.

Words fail me to qualify these astonishing sugges-
tions, such as never have been made yet to the fallen
chief of a generous nation, and could hardly have
been expected in the 19th century.
My answer does not admit of hesitation. Between
death and shame the choice can be neither dubious

nor difficult. Governor of Hungary, and elected to
that high place by the confidence of fifteen millions
of my countrymen, I know well what I owe to the
honour of my country even in exile. Even as a pri-
vate individual I have an honourable path to pursue.
Once governor of a generous country—l leave no
heritage to my children—they shall, at least, bear an
unsullied name. God's will be done. lam prepared
to die; but as I think this measure dishonourable and

injurious to Turkey, whose interests I sincerely have at
heart, and as I fell it a duty to save my companions
in exile, if I can, from a degrading alternative, I have
replied to the Grand Vizier in a conciliatory
manner, and took also the liberty to apply to Sir
Stratford Canning and General Aupick for their
generous aid against this tyrannic act. In full reliance
on the noble sentiments and generous principles of
your Excellency, by which, as well as through your
wisdom, you have srscured the esteem of the civilized
world, I trust to be excused in enclosing copies of
my two lettns to the Grand Vizier and Sir Stratford
Canning.
lam informed that the whole matter is a cabal
against the 111iniitry of Reschid Pasha, whose
enemies would wish to force him to our extradition,
in order to lower it in public estimation, and render
impossible its continuance in office. It is certain that
in the Grand Council held on the 9th and 10th of
September, after a tumultous debate, the majority of
the council declared in favour of our extradition, the
majority of the Ministry against it. No decision
was come to, in consequence of the altercation which
took place; but, notwithstanding, the Ministry
thought fit to make us the revolting suggestion I have
named.

This mode of solving the difficulty would not, I
am convinced, save the Ministry, because a protec-
tion only given, in contradiction of the Sultan's

generous- feeling,'at the price of five thousand Chris-
tians abandoning their faith, would be revolting to
the whole Christian world, and prove hardly calcu-
lated to win sympathies for Turkey in the event of
war with Russia, which, in the opinion of the most
experienced Turkish statesmen, is approaching fast.
As to my native country, Turkey does, I believe,
already feel the lc,ss of the neglected opportunity of
having given to "Hungary at least some moral help to
enable it to ctur,ck the advance of the common enemy.
But it appears to me that it would be a very ill-
advised mode of gaining Hungarian sympathy by
sending me to. an Austrian scaffold, and forcing my
unhappy companions to aljure their religion, or
accept the same alternative.
No friends to the Turkish Government would
spring up from my blood shed by her broken faith,
but many deadly foes. My Lord, your heart will, I
am sure, excuse my having called your :attention to
our unhappy fate, since it has now assumed political
importance. Abandoned in this unsocial land by
the whole world, even the first duties of humanity
give us no promise of protection unless, my Lord,
you and your generous nation come forward to pro-
tect us.
What steps it may he expedient that you should
take, what we have a right to expect from the well-
known generosity of England, it would b e hardly
fitting for me to enter on. I place my own Itnd my

companions' fate in your hangs, my Lord, and in the
I name of humanity throw myself under the protection
of England.
Time presses—our doom may in a few days be
sealed. Allow me to make an humble personal
request. lam a man, my Lord, prepared to face the
worst ; and I can die with a free look at Heaven, a;
I have lived. But lam also, my Lord, a husband,
s)n, and father; my poor true hearted wite, my
children, and my noble old mother, are Nvanrleriiag
about Hungary. They will probably soon fall into
the hands of those Austrians who delight in tortur-
ing even feeble women, and with whom the innocence
of childhood is no protection against persecutions. I
conjure your Excellency, in the name of the Most
High, to put a stop to these crueltie3 by your power-
ful mediation, and especially to accord to my wife
and children an asylum on the soil of the generous
English people.
As to my poor—my loved and noble country—
' must she, too, perish for ever ? Shall she, unaided,
abandoned to her fate, and unavenged, be doomed to
annihilation by her tyrants ? Will England, once
her hope, not become her consolation ?
The political interests of civilised Europe, so many
weighty considerations respecting England herself;
and chiefly the maintenance of the Ottoman empire,
are too intimately bound up with the existence of
Hungary for me to lose all hope. My Lord, may God
the Almighty for many years shield you, that you
may long protect the unfortunate, and live to be the
guardian of the rights of freedom and humanity. I
subscribe myself, with the most perfect respect and
esteem,

THE QUARTER'S REVENUE.
(From the Observer.)
_

The returns of the quarter's revenue will be made
up to Wednesday evening next, the 10th instant. So
-far as can be judged, however, from the receipts of
the quarter as they are now known, we believe that
the result for the quarter and the year will be most
satisfactory, as regards a comparison both with the
quarter and with the year ending the 10th of
October, 1848.
We may commence by stating that there will be a
small increase on the gross revenue for the quarter
over the corresponding quarter of last year ; and that
on a comparison of the two years ending on the 10th
of October, 1848 and 1849 respectively, a similarly
satisfactory result may be expected. That it is
satisfactory and encouraging so to keep up to the
standard of last year and quarter is most easily shown
by a statement of the several receipts.
The Customs will show an actual decrease, as com-
pared with the quarter ending the 10th of October,
1848, of not less than from 300,0001. to 400,0001.
This decrease, large as it looks on a single quarter, is
more than accounted for by considering what a large
quantity of foreign corn has been imported in the
corresponding quarter of last year, just at the time
when our own harvest was not yet avaible, and
when the distress and deficiency in Ireland were at
their height. The loss, too, of so large a portion of
the sugar and timber duties has had its due influence
—an influence which, if we reason from all previous
experience, will be less and less felt every day. The
falling off in the Customs, we are happy to say, is
the only apparently unfavourable item in the account,
and is more than made up by the actual prosperity of
the others.

The Excise will show a gratifying increase almost
sufficient in itself to cover the temporary falling off
in the Customs. This is the more satisfactory, when
it is stated that it arises from a comparison with a
most excellent quarter last year. When it is consi-
dered that the condition of Excise revenue is so
strong a criterion of the comfort of the working
classes, this increased and increasing improvement is
beyond all price.
The Stamps, which had so greatly fallen off during
the check to commerce and trade last year, exhibit
a most remarkable activity, and will yield an in-
crease of not less than 100,0001. over the October
quarter of 1848.

The Taxes will also show a small increase.

• The Post-office, too, will add its most instructive
evidence to the increased activity of trade, by showing
an improved net revenue of 100,0001., in spite of the
heavy expenses incurred in order to give enlarged
accommodation to the public in town and country.
The increase in the property-tax will also appear
with its most decisive evidence in favour of the im-
provement of the general prosperity over the depres-
sion of the corresponding period of the last year.
Upon the returns of the year ending the 10th of
October, 1848, and the 10th of October, 1849, respec-
tively, it may be sufficient to remark that they will
exhibit a comparison not very materially differing
from the comparative statement of the corresponding
quarter, which we have given above. The Customs
will show a decrease from the same causes which we
have already pointed out, and which were taken into
account when the changes in the tariff were made. The
only difference between the calculation and the actual
result is, that the calculations were made on the safe
side (as they ought to be), and that the depression is
not so great as was expected.
The Taxes, Stamps, Post-office, and Property-tax,
will all show most gratifying proof of increasing
prosperity in the returns for the 'year. The above
items comprise what is called the ordinary revenue,
and not being subject to casualties, are ordinarily
reckoned the tests of the national prosperity. The
sales of stores, Crown lands, and miscellaneous, vary
so much according to circumstances which are wholly
casual, that they are not taken much into account,
although they serve, as far as they go, to balance a
quarterly or an annual account.
It may not be out of place to remark, in reference
to the receipt of the revenue, that the national expen-
diture has been, and is, ire process of considerable
reduction, and that both the imports and exports of
the country exhibit an increase and an activity that
must be attended with the most decisive and beneficial
results in every point of view.

NAVAL IN TELLIGENCE.
The Wolverine, 12, Commander M. Falcon, is
ordered to be completed with all possible dispatch,
and it is expected to leave Chatham on the 10th inst.,
instead of the 17th.

The Linnet, 6, packet-brig, Lieutenant Com-
mander James, sailed from Falmouth on Saturday,
for Brazil. Her passengers were—for Madeira, the
Very Rev. the Dean of Llandaff, Mrs. Conybear, Mr.
Conybear, and servants ; for Teneriffe, Miss Mann;
for Bahia, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas and family and ser-
vant, Mrs. Lane and family and servant.
The Sidon steam-frigate, is receiving her new
boilers at Portsmouth; she is to be ready by the 12th
of November, but there appears to be a good deal of
work to be completed on board of her ; the step of
her mainmast has been shifted four feet further aft,
and the step of her foremast six feet further aft.
The Encounter, screw corvette, Captain Gordon,
continues ready for sea, at Spithead, waiting orders.
PLYMOUTH, OCT. 6.—The cholera having left
Stonehouse, the Andromeda frigate hulk, which for

Victualling-yard, for the reception of healthy ma-
rines and their families, has been warped to her moor-

Her Majesty's brigs Grecian and Philomel were
taken into dock today to be repaired.
Her Majesty's ship Ghnges, 84, Captain Henry
Smith, which has now only a frigate's crew (500
men), is to have a full complement of 750 hands.
Yesterday her sails were unbent and lowered yards
and topgallant-masts struck.
The Peterel packet sailed on Thursday for Fal-
mouth.

Considerable speculation exists in naval circles as to
the probable successor of the present Admiral-Superin-
tendent of the Devonport Dockyard, Rear-Admiral
Sir John Louis, Upon this subject this day's De-
vonport Telegraph says :—" Sir John Sinclair, Rear-
Admiral of the Blue, will succeed." Again, " that
it is contemplated to fill up the vacancy from the
Captains' list, instead of the Rear-Admirals'. By
this latter arrangement the office of Flag-Lieutenant
will be abolished, and it is said the Captain-Superin-
tendent's pendant will be hoisted on board the ordi-
nary depot ship, thus effecting a further saving."
Wind—southerly, with rain.

NARROW ESCAPE Of EARL CAVAN.—On Thurs-
day week, as the Elrl of Cavan was returning from
Bridgwater, when at a short distance from Barford
House, his horse, which was going rather fast, drew the
phaeton near the side of the lane, and the forewheel
suddenly coming in contact with the bridge of an en-
trance gateway over a ditch, it :flew to pieces. The
carriage was overturned, his Lordship and a man whom
he had taken up on the road were thrown violently out,
and were rolled for some considerable distance in the
mud. Dr. Sewell, of Bridgwater, was driving near the
spot, and assisted his Lordship so his residence. We
are happy to state, that besides the severe hock sus.
tained. neither his Lordship nor his companion received
any injury. By the kindness of his neighbour, Mr. F.
Billie, labourers were soon procured, and a horse and
cart lent by him conveyed the shattered carriage to
Barford House.—Bristol Journal.
WEST SURREY ELECTION.—The poll-book is to
be published, and we are glad to find it will be something
more, as the whole of the names and residences of quali-
fied electors will be printed, so that the unpolled, as well
as those who did exercise their franchise, will appear.—

The commencement of the meeting, as will be seen by
the above return, has been favourable in the extreme as
regards sport, and there can be no doubt, from the im-
mense number of horses now in the town, including
many not mentioned in the public lists of arrivals, that
not only in the present, but in the Houghton week, the
most sanguine expectations will be exceeded. Every
stable is full, but some of them, from the variable state
of the weather during the last fortnight, not in so healthy
a state as could be wished. The weather to-day was
cold and showery until about two o'clock; it then cleared
up and continued fine to the close of the racing. The
attendance was good.

THE PROPERTY OF MR. O'CONNOR.—We under-
stand that the property of Patrick O'Connor, for whose
murder the Mannings stand charged, is about to be
divided among his relatives, residing in the county of
Tipperary, one of whom is the present parish priest of
Templemore; the others are persons in rather humble
circumstances. It is supposed that it will amount to
seven or eight thousand pounds.—Cionmel Chronicle.
DEANERY OF CARLISLE.—On the promotion of the
Very Rev. Dr. thuds' Dean of Carlisle, to the Bishopric
of Norwich, Lord John Russell offered the vacant
Deanery to the Rev. Arthur Penryn Stanley, M.A., son
of the late Bishop of Norwich. The Rev. Gentleman
has intimated to his Lordship that his duties in the
University of Oxford will prevent his acceptance of the
valuable appointment.
The New Corn-market in Edinburgh is rapidly
drawing to comp!etion. It is floored with heavy timber,
and forms the largest saloon in the city. When not oc-
cupied as a market-place, it may be turned to good ac-
count for monster meetings.
