GERMAN Y.

Letters from Dresden of the 7th state, that the de-
parture of Prince SCRWARTZENBERG has been post-
poned in consequence of the differences which have
again arisen between Austria and Prussia. MAN•
TEtirrzr., the Prussian Minister, was daily expected
at Dresden. Austria is endeavouring to get up a
Protectionist Zollverein, while Prussia supports the
Freetraders.

Letters from Thorn state that large bodies of
Russian troops are concentrating on the Prussian
frontier.

The Elector of HESSE CASSEL has ordered that the
editors of the Frelen and of the New Gazette of
Hesse should be prosecuted for high treason.
The Committee of the States of Wirtemberg has
issued the following protest :

" The Committee of the Assembly of the States
having examined the royal ordinances of the 25th
and 29th of December, declares—First, that it con-
siders the ordinance of the 25th of December, re-
lative to the press, to be an infringement on the
legislative duties of the people's representatives, and
a violation of the liberty of the press, as guaranteed
by the fundamental laws. Second, that it regards
the ordinance of the 29th of December, relative to
the collection of the indirect taxes, as a violation of the
109th section of the constitution, according to the terms
of which no tax whatever, whether direct or indirect,
cat 4 be levied, either in time of peace or in time of war,
without the consent of the States. The Committee con-
siders it to be its duty to declare this opinion openly,
both t.) the people and the Government.

Stockmaier, Maurice Mohl, A. Seeger, Fiitzer, and

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The Federal Commissioners arrived at Kid on the
Gth. Shortly afterwards, habited in General's uni-
form, they visited the Commandant of the town,
Colonel JESKY, the Governor, Count REVENTLOW, and
the heads of the Ministerial departments. They have
consented to give the Stadtholderate to the 11th, to
make their answer to the requisitions of Austria and
Prussia.

• In regard to the pacification of the Duchies, we
understand that Denmark intends to rest upon the
manifesto and proclamation of the 14th July last, and
demands the immediate resignation of the Stadthol-
dership. The Austrian and Prussian Governments,
however, insist that the Stadtholdership shall remain
in office till the first step towards pacification shall
have becn taken by itself.

Extensive Travelling Leave granted without extra Premium
Moderate extra Premium for Residence in Tropical Climates.
EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE.
Capital-500,0,0/.
(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office ara —Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each elms of risk—Annual division of Profits.
The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so
crest., that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.

It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highest importance; both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the
true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Firs Insu-
rance Company is established.
The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied.
WhateVer be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.

The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to tide, adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariffs with other offices.
With this view an annual investigation will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years. _ . _

Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon
every description of Property on moderate terms.
Farming Stock insurad at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.
Prospectuses, and every information may be obtained, on applica-
tion at the Office, or to any of its Agents.

CONVICT GUARDS.

The following instructions have been issued to the
staff-officers of pensioners on this subject:—
" War-office, Dec. 27, 1850.

" Sir,—l am directed to transmit the conditions of
service for convict guards proceeding to Australia and
Tan Diemen's Land in the ensuing year; and to re-
quest that you will, immediately after your next pay-
ments, recommend for this service any number not
exceeding six of the most eligible of the pensioners in
your district who may wish to become candidates for
that duty ; attending carefully to the instructions
previously given you as to the qualifications required
for this duty and the mode of recommending them.

"Much inconvenience having been experienced by
private applications and inquiries from pensioners to
whom the nature of the conditions do not appear to
have been sufficiently explained, lam directed to
request that you will be particularly careful to read
and explain these conditions to them at your pay-
ments, and also to hang up a copy in your office that
they may be perused by them at that time.
Should no candidates offer on this occasion you
can recommend the required number at any other
period in the course of the year, but you must in the
meantime report the circumstance of no candidates
being at present available.
" The candidates must distinctly understand that it
is quite uncertain when they will be wanted, as oppor-
tunities for forwarding them depend entirely on the
number of convicts sent out in the course of the year ;
but none are likely to be required earlier than March
next, and the year will probably have passed before
the whole are called for.

" As the men appointed to this service will not re-
ceive enrolment money, they will not be required to
refund any portion of the bounty money which may
have been paid to them ; but it is expedient to avoid
enrolling them when you are in expectation of their
services being wanted for this purpose unless you
cannot make up the required number for your dis-
trict otherwise.

" Should any of these candidates die or remove to
another district, or alter their intention of going out,
it is requested that you will immediately communi-
cate the circumstance to this office in order that the
necessary alteration may be made in the list.
" I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient ser-
vant, " L. Suuvax."

The Risorgimento of Turin quotes a letter from
Rome of the 28th, stating that sanguinary quarrels
constantly occur between the French and Pontifical
troop, and that several of the former had but lately
been killed or severely wounded in the quarters of the
Borgo and Banchi. The correspondent adds, that the
mob always side with the Papal soldiers on such oc-
casions ; and that in consequence of such occurrences
the French General had thought it prudent to abandon
some secondary posts, and to concentrate his men in
the vicinity of the Castle of St. Angelo. It was ru-
moured that negotiations with the King of NAPLES for
the purpose of obtaining a Neapolitan garrison at

CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE
ASSURANCE COMPANY,
8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON.
The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie-
tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head
Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the
report, which is too lengthy for publication

During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in Englam%
and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 2001.—making
together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected
mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how
severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last
year.
The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1249, and
the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in
the twelve months preceding.
Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.:
of these 121, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s.
sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 32.
was received by the Company in the shape of premiums.
Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June last,
assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro-
ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. 1 ls. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed,
amounting to 23,990/. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were
7411. ls., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to
2,9911. 15s. I Id.

Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001.,
but 1,183/. lie. 10d. only was advanced.
The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the
last four months they had considerably extended their business on
the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur
de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for
his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters,
who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris,
the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque
de Langres, has already within tlto: last three months effected a con-
siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An-
nuities both Immediate and Deferred.
After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning
thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice-
Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish-
ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results
and future prospects.

BRANDING BY A SURGEON.

For several days considerable excitement has pre-
vailed in Blackburn, by a ripen that Mr. Rogerson, sur-
geon, had branded a boy's forehead with a large letter
B, which had been written on by caustic. For some time
past Mr. Rogerson had been considerably annoyed by
boys continually ringing his bell, and running away. On
Sunday week, hearing a forcible pull at the bell, he im-
mediately ran out and caught a boy named William
Woods and shut him up in the surgery for a short time;
he then got some caustic, and held the boy whilst he
rubbed on his forehead the letter B. The youth stated
that, previous to the act being committed, Mr. Rogerson
asked what school he had been at; on being told at the
Independents', the defendant said, " Oh, you are one of
that sort, are you ? then I'll make an example of you."
At the pelice-office, on Monday, before W. Eccles, Esq.,
Mr. Rogerson was charged with the above offence, under
the Ist and 2d Vic., chap. 58, wherein it is enacted,
" That whosoever shall cast, throw upon, or otherwise
apply to any Person, any corrosive fluid or other de-
structive matter, with intent to burn, maim, disfigure, or
disable, or to do some grievous bodily harm, shall be
guilty of felony." It was stated that from the opinion of
several medical men, the mark would never be erased
from the lad's forehead during his life. Mr. Rogerson
contradicted this assertion, and stated that all appearance
would be entirely obliterated in about twelve months.
Dr. Martland was of the same opinion. The defendant
denied the boy's statement with respect to what school
he belonged. Mr. Eccles said that whether the mark
would be then obliterated (Jr not made no difference, he
should be under the painful necessity of ordering Mr.
Rogerson to enter into recognizances to appear at the
next Lancashire assizes. Mr. Rogerson, seeing the
serious position in which be was placed, applied for an
adjournment until Wednesday, in order to consult a
legal adviser, which was granted, the defendant entering
into his own recosnizAnce to appear on that day. The
punishment for the above offencc is transportation for
li!e, and not less than 15 years' imprisonment, with or
without hard labour for mote than three years.—Man-
chester Examiner.

LOSS OF TEETH.
A NEW and very curious invention connected with Dental
Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, of 17, George. street,
Hanover-square ; it is the production of an entirely NEW DESCRIP-
TION OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfrctly resemb:e natural teeth, as not to be
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer. They will
never change colour or decay, and will be found very superior to
any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the ex-
traction of any Teeth or Roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve the Teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to
restore articulation and mastication. The invention is of importance
to many persons, and those who are interested in it should avail
themselves of Mr. Howard's NEW DISCOVERY.

GERMAN Y.

Letters from Dresden of the 7th state, that the de-
parture of Prince SCUWARTZENBERG has been post-
poned in consequence of the differences which have
again arisen between Austria and Prussia. MAN.
TEUFFEL, the Prussian Minister, was daily expected
at Dresden. Austria is endeavouring to get up a
Protectionist Zollverein, while Prussia supports the
Freetraders.

Letters from Thorn state that large bodies of
Russian troops are concentrating on the Prussian
frontier.

The Elector of ITEssE CASSEL has ordered that the
editors of the Frelen and of the New Gazette of
Hesse should be prosecuted for high treason.
The Committee of the States of Wirtemberg has
issued the following protest :
The Committee of the Assembly of the States
having examined the royal ordinances of the 25th
and 29th of December, declares—First. thL.t it con-
siders the ordinance of the 25th of December, re-
lative to the press, to bo an infringement on the
legislative duties of the people's representatives, and
a violation of the liberty of the pres, as guaranteed
by the fundamental laws. Second, that it regards
the ordinance of the 29th of December, relative to
the collection of the indirect taxes, as a violation of the
109th section of the constitution, according to the terms
of which no tax whatever, whether direct or indirect,
can be levied, either in time of peace or in time of war,
without the consent of the States. The Committee con-
siders it to be its duty to declare this opinion openly,
both ti the people and the Government.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

The Federal Commissioners arrived at Kiel on the
6th. Shortly afterwards, habited in General's uni-
form, they visited the Commandant of the town,
Colonel JESKY, the Governor, Count REVENTLOW, and
the heads of the Ministerial departments. They have
consented to give the Stadtholderate to the 11th, to
make their answer to the requisitions of Austria an d
Prussia.

In regard to the pacification of the Duchies, we
understand that Denmark intends to rest upon the
manifesto and proclamation of the 14th July last, and
demands the immediate resignation of the Stadthol-
dership. The Austrian and Prussian Governments,
however, insist that the Stadtholdership shall remain
in office till the first step towards pacification shall
have been taken by itself.
