LIFE DEPARTMENT.

For the convenienee of parties wishing to assure for a spa..
eific sum, without •a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower
rates, has been calculated, on which, as well as on the partici-
pating scale, one half the premiums may remain on interest
at five per cent. for five years, thus enabling a person to assure
his life for 1,0001. on the immediate payment of the prernium
for 500/. ' Fur example, on the non-participating scale a man
aged 30 may assure his life for 5001. by an annual payment of
9/. 18s. 4d., and if he can employ the money better in his
trade or profession, one half of it may remain unpaid for five
years, on his merely paying the interest till the expiration
of that period. So that, for the trifling sum of five guineas
per annum, a comfortable provision may be secured for a widow
or a family.
The fallowing are the annual premiums for the assurance of
100/., one-half of which may remain for live years by merely
paving the interest annual, five pcq- cent., and should the
policy becomea claim in the interim the amount due will then
be deducted

This morning, at eight o'clock, the Admiral hoisted his
flag on board the Sutferen ; and in all probability that
vessel, with the Marengo, the Jupiter, and the Scorpion,
will sail from Brest to morrow.

" The two ships of the line, Jena and Neptune, which
were probably intended to make part of the division,
will short join Admiral easy at Brest. The reason of
this delay, is doubtless the absence of the Neptune, which
was to leave Tunis for this port on the 13th, and for
which the Jena will wait here."—illoniteur, Oct. 25.
A letter from Tabriz, in Persia, dated Aug. 15, con •
tains the following passage :
" The drought in this country has been so great that
the inhabitants have been forced to sell their children
to procure bread. They have been bought by the Mussel-
men, though they belonged to Christian parents. The
Russian Government has just ordered its Consul to re-
deem these children. Two hundred of them have already
been restored to liberty. They will probably be sent to
Rnssia."

fishermen have already taken above four millions of
oysters on the bank of St. Marc, though the fishery has
not been very active : but it seems that the English are
still resolved to have their share in it, for on the night
of the 13th English boats were seen still fishing there.
These pirates must be very audacious to come and
dredge on a bank which they know is guarded by three
armed vessels.—Commerce.

The Toudonnais of the 21st instant announces that
Admiral Casey had been ordered to hold himself in readi-
ness to put to sea. On the morning of the 20th the
Admiral hoisted his flag on the Suffren, which ship and
the Marengo, Jupiter, and Scipion, were expected to sail
on the 22d. The Jena and Neptune, which formed part
of the division, would follow the Admiral immediately
on the return of the Neptune, which was to leave Tunis
on the 13th for France. The destination of this arma-
ment gave rise to much conjecture.
It was rumoured in Paris on Sunday that Espahero
had signed the treaty of commerce with Great Britain,
and that the import duties on British goods were to be
reduced 20 per cent. generally; that the Spanish Ambassa-
dor in Paris had called for his passports, and that a
French corps of army of 45,000 men was on the point
of being concentrated along the Pyrenean frontier.

sincere thanks to his kind friends and patrons for
their liberal encouragement of him since his occupancy of the

earliest opportunity to contradict a report that has been indus-

to retire from the Cross Keys, which has tin foundation in truth
whatever ; but he further assures his customers that every
exertion, at all times, shall be used by him and his assistants,

Keys has been so long celebrated.

For the further comfort of his friends, he has fitted up a

COLONIAL MARKETS.

The public sales were large and important, but did
not produce any material alteration of prices. B. P.
Sugar was in great request, the colony sort fetching high
prices. Mauritius and Bengal were also in good request
and stiff prices paid. The Coffee Market very dull and
prices scarcely maintained. In the Spice Market but little
business was done, but supported their former value. A few
small parcels of common Black Pepper sold for export

The Mori • ------"."------
1141/ Heral d yesterd gave the fol-
lowing brief history of the vicissay itudes of agri-
culture under the modern Corn-laws :
The present high prices of
IdBom.estie grain are the re-
sult of the very low prices of 3), which produced such
extensive ruin among th
cultivators, and a rapid de-
clension in the amount oef
cultivation in the British
islands. Thence followed the deficient supplies of 1837
and 1838, year
when in the formerthe import of foreign
wheat sprung from two hundredand sixty-three thou-
sandfive hundred and se-
and seventy-four quarters to
quarters,
venty-eight thousand three hundred .
andut sixty-one
_tiers in
and to one million three hundredand fifteen
sand fire hundred and eighty-fuur thou-
sand
have es of 1838, and
prodtbiced, in
1838; this
deficiency naturally begot the hi
1839, and 1840 ; and these, again P
extensive cultivation and more 1341, more
produce, which have, however, been neutralisedwubenydfeatahnret
wet and inclement harvest weather which has,
greatly injured what at one time promised to be a good 1
and ample supply.
The effects produced on the internal cultivation by
the alteration of prices seems to be invariable. The
high prices of 1816, 1817, and 1818, ranging from 945.
to 845., with an average yearly import of one million
three hundred thousand quarters, were succeeded by ex-
tended cultivation of wheat and improved husbandry,
which produced low prices, abundant home supplies,
and greatly diminished imports for the next three
years. The very low prices of 1822 and 1823 again
threw land out of cultivation, prices sprung up
20s. a quarter in 1824 and 1825, and were only
kept down, in 1826 and 1827, by augmented importa-
tions. In 1828 and 1829 the effect of the withdrawal
of the one-pound notes became apparent ; prices rose
from 1828 tn 1831, and the average importation of
foreign corn for those four years was upwards of one
million six hundred thousand quarters per annum. Then
came six years of low prices, great aqricultural distress,
and diminished imports—the latter averaging. only three
hbu,n_d_redavnd
_twenty thousand quarters per annum ; and
an inevitable
uitaablte sequence the diminished production of •
with the augmented imports we
have, before poT inte1(81),

From this it isoligtuite clear that the stimulus
given to
price, leadsti production by artificially raising ate
tile years tiv:tel fairmers to Produce more in fer-
t the community can purchase,
when, in consequence
tion, Prices fallv of
their excessive produc-
low, and the farmers are

MISCELLANEOUS.

EYesterday in 1764 died William Hogarth, the prince
of painters. The nationality of Hogarth's prints has
given them a more lasting popularity than that enjoyed
by any class of engravings.
From the report of the " Sanatorium," a public in-
stitution intended to provide medical relief to the middle
classes in sickness, and a meeting of whose members
met at the London Tavern yesterday, it appears that
the number of subscribers was 216, whose entire subscrip-
tions amounted to about 1,500 L, while the persons inte-
rested in the institution were from 1,200 to 1,300.
Brighton is remarkably full at the present time.
Last week the greatest amount of letters ever delivered
here took place, the number from London alone being
nearly 32,000.

After the performance of sacred music in the parish
church of Leeds on Monday last, two old women en-
tered, expecting evening prayers. None, however,
were read, and being overlooked, the visitors were locked
up all night, and next morning were found quietly seated
in the Corporation Pew.—These are not the first old
women who have taken their seats in a Corporation Pew.
The Western Times says—" We are informed that the
Earl of Devon's harriers came across a donkey last week,
and gave chace to the poor animal, whom, before they
could be called off, they tore to pieces."—lt is fortunate
that the Gallant and Hon. Member for—our readers will,
no doubt, be able to fill up the blank—was not in the
neighbourhood at the time, or he, too, might have been
torn to pieces!
Mr. Auldjo, in his " Journal of a Visit to Constanti•
nople," speaking of Turkish boatmen, says—" At each
stroke of the oar they utter a grunt, to acquire which
accomplishment is considered a necessary part of a boat-
man's education, and his character depends much upon
it."—What the grunt is to a Turkish boatman, cock-
crowing is to a Tory subaltern ; it is considered a neces-
sary part of his education, and his character, as a useful
party man, depends much on it.

Mr. John Wilson Croker's modesty!
RUMOURS Or THE EAT.
According to an Irish paper, Government are about to
lay out an enormous sum in strengthening the fortifica-
tions of Gibraltar. We believe the account in a Scotch
paper, that the Government is about to settle the Non-
intrusion question, is equally credible.

NAVAL AND MILITANT.

The Precursor, a large steam-vessel, the first of a line

LAW AND POVEC.Z.

Two Frenchmen were convicted at the Surrey Ses-
sions of an assault on a man of the name of Maddox, on
the 30th of August, in Vauxhall Gardens. One of them
was fined lat. and the other 51. and held to bail to keep
the peace. It appeared the assault was of a very serious
description.

At the Central Criminal Court on Monday William
Smith Henson, an attorney, was indicted for obtaining
money by false pretences. It appeared from the evi-
dence that a poor woman of the name of Street had paid
him, at different times, 31, to defend her son, and fee
Counsel, which he had failed to do. The Jury returned
a verdict of Guilty, and the defendant, who had been out
on bail, was sent to Newgate, to be brought up in the
course of the Sessions for judgment.

AGRICULTURAL.

It is stated, on the best authority, that the Irish pea-
santry will this year be exposed to a great deficiency in
the potato crop, and it is remarkble that the failure of
the crop is greatest upon rich and heavy soils, such as
the south-western parts of the county of Tipperary,
while the light, sandy soils alone produce fairly.

NEW ASSURANCE AND LOAN BANK.—In
another part of the paper will be found a prospectus of
a new Company, under the title of the " Achilles British
and Foreign Life Assurance Association and Loan
Bank." According to the plan laid down, it will differ
from other insurance offices in this respect, that in addi-
tion to the business of life assurance, loans will be
granted on the policies. A deed of settlement will
forthwith be prepared for limiting the responsibility of
the Shareholders and regulating the affairs of the Asso-
ciation until an Act of Parliament can be obtained for a
charter. There is ample space for such an association.
The profits of some of the existing Companies are very
great, and a new association, founded on sound principles,
might be beneficial, not only to the Shareholders but to
the public. Much, however, will depend on the cha-
racter and property of the parties forming the Com-
pany ; and when application is made to Parliament for a
Charter, we have no doubt the originators of the
Achilles Assurance will be prepared with satisfactory
proofs that they are entitled to confidence.

Sir Robert Peel, Sir James Graham, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, and some of the other
Cabinet Ministers, were busily engaged at the Home-
office on Monday until past eight o'clock in the evening.
Yesterday the same activity prevailed at the Home-office
and the Treasury. At the former, Mr. Hall, the Magis-
trate of Bow-street, and Mr. Burnaby, chief clerk,
were in attendance a great part of the morning. It
is generally stated that the inquiry going forward relates
to the irregularity in issuing Exchequer Bills, but in the
present stage of course nothing is allowed to transpire.
A considerable number of gentlemen from the City visit-
ed the Treasury during yesterday morning.
THE QUEEN DOWAGER.--We rejoice in being
able to state, that there is no foundation whatever for
the report in a Morning Paper that her Majesty the •
Queen Dowager had been taken ill at Sudbury Hall.
The inquiries at Marlborough House yesterday, were
very numerous, and the answer given was, " The Queen
Dowager is quite well."

" The insurrection is quelled. The approaching
arrival of General Itodil, the presence of Zurbano
almost at the gates of Vittoria, had thrown the inha-
bitants of the city into consternation. The Ayunta-
miento met, in which the Marquis IYAlameda, Deputy-
General of the Province, presided ; it was decided that
Vittoria should not make any defence.
" The Militia and the troops at the garrison pro-
claimed the counter revolution.

" Montes D'Oca, the Marquis D'Alameda, Brigadier-
General Echaline, Colonel Leiba, and some other leading-
persons, immediately left the city and proceeded to Ber-
gona, where Montes D'Oca was arrested. The others
reached Metrico, where they embarked for France and
arrived at Bayonne this morning."—Constitutiorniel.
The Toulonnais, of the 24th, says, " The steamer
which should bring the mail from Africa, has not yet
arrived in the road.

" It is supposed that this packet, being surprised at
sea by the storm which prevailed last week, has been
damaged, and that it was unable to continue its voyage.

specting the expedition of Medeah, which must now be
ended.—Commerce.

OATMEAL PORRIDGE.

We happened to be conversing with a person in
Manchester the other day who has some knowledge of
the state of the poor, and allusion was made to the
difference of a penny in the price of some commodity.
Oh," said he, " with a pettny they are able to procure
a meal." " A meal with a penny," we said with some as-
tonishment, for we had not then heard of the 3,000
persons in Paisley who have to make a penny serve,
not merely for a single meal, but for all the meals they
obtain in the day. " And of what does the meal con-
sist;
such is the food
which they procure for a penny ; herring?" "Oh
no, oatmeal," said be. "They buy a pennyworth of
nonaoudktsseit into porridge
'a"nd wholeiome, if varied with other
doubt but that oatmeal porridge may
nvt haeu ont
do
os t make
ob
fe. oatmeal,
mNh
both th nwy
more substantial food ; but whilst it will be sounded
forth, " Oh, all the foreign wheat is coming out of bond
at a shilling duty, it is unnecessary to alter the Corn-
laws," let it be recollected that the duty on a quarter
of oats is thirteen shillings and ninepence, the duty be-
ing equal to the first cost! So the poor starving
weaver, sending for his pennyworth of oatmeal pays a
halfpenny for the meal-taz. It will probably be right
for the Daily Bread Society to have part of their in-
veittnent in oats instead of wheat ; they will obtain a
much larger quantity for the same outlay, and the tax
on the oats will be nearly a hundred per cent., whilst
that on the wheat will temporarily be very low.—Bread
Eaters' Advocate.

A GREEN OLD AGE.—On August 23d, Mr.
W. Pusey, who completed his 102 d year in May, worked
as foreman, in the parish of Pidminster, Taunton, as
reaper, with four nephews, from two i n the afternoon
until seven in the evening, and repeated his labours on
Tuesday. He joined in the festivities of harvest-home,
sung a song, and walked home in company

HAMBURGH MAIL.

WARSAW, OCT. 12.—8 y a decision of his Majesty the
Emperor of Russia, dated the 15th of last month, it is
ordered, that from and after the Ist of January, 1842,
the Mint at Warsaw shall make use of the Russian
weight in the weighing of gold, silver, and copper. The
Russian silver ruble is to be taken as the standard
for all coins circulating in the kingdom. The Warsaw
Mint is directed to coin gold pieces by the name of half
Imperials of the value of five rubles, and silver coins of
the value of rubles, half rubles, and 25, 20, 10, and 5
copecs, and all conformably to a prescribed model. From
the same day all the accounts of the Government and
the local authorities, and likewise those between private
persons, tare to be kept in Russian silver rubles, copees,
and half copecs. The accounts of the Polish banks re-
lative to the loan in 1841 are to be kept in florins, as
hitherto. But in all the new coupons which may he is-
sued in subsequent years, the value is to be stated both
in florins and silver rubles.
All stamped paper to be used in the kingdom is to have
the Imperial lines both in the water-mark and the stamp.
The words describing the price, as well as the words in
water-mark, are to be in the Russian and Polish lan-
guages. The prices of the stamped paper are to be ex-
pressed in rubles and copecs. Cards and almanacks are
to have a stamp like that of stamped paper. By an
Ukase of the same date the Polish Bank is to issue
Bank-notes of I, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 silver rubles.
for which preparations are making. The value of these
notes is to be expressed in print, both in figures and in
words, in the Russian and Polish languages, and on the
back, likewise in figures and in words, in the German,
French and English languages.
POLISH FRONTIERS, OCT. 13.—1 t is said that Prince
Paskewitsch will shortly go to Berlin in order to an-
nounce there the intended changes in the kingdom of
Poland. It is likewise said that the Prince will go to
St. Petersburgh and make a long stay there.—Hamburgh
Paper, Oct. 22.
MALTA, OCT. s.—Letters from Trebisond of the 16th
of last month say that an insurrection has broken out in
Georgia against the Russian authorities. The insur-
gents, it is said, by way of a sequel, burnt the quaran-
tine establishment Akheslika (probably Achalzich).

LLOYD'S SHIPPING.

HER MAJESTY'S STEAM VESSEL AVON.
Sheerness, Dee. 10, 1841

Sir—ln consequence of its having appeared, in several
public papers and shipping lists, that her Majesty's
steam-vessel Avon had been ashore on Flamborough
Head, and had met considerable damage—
May I request you will cause this error to be contra-
dicted in as public a manner as possible ; the fact being
that her- Majesty's steam-vessel Driver went ashore on
Flamborough Head, and afterwards put into Shields.
The Avon arrived at Shields on Dec. 2, where she found
the Driver, and left Shields on the 7th, in company
with the Driver, and arrived at Sheerness on the 9th inst.

The reasons for the foregoing statement are, lest any
erroneous reports may be prejudicial to the pilot of the
Avon, Mr. Ranzon, of Hull, with whom lam highly
satisfied.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant,
CHARLES JENKIN, Lieut. commanding.
