Senor Tassara, Spanish Minister in London, has
sent in Lis resignation.

In to-morrow's sitting of the Constituent Cortes
the members of the Republic party will bring for-
ward a motion against the sojourn of the Duke of
Montpeukier on Spanish soil. It is, however, con-

amendment declaring that the Cortes ought not to

THE INDIAN WAR.

The constant wars with the few Indian tribes now remain-
ing on the soil of the United States, and the apparent impos-
sibility of keeping them in order for any length of time,
will appear unintelligible unless regard be bad to the
immense size of the dominion now ruled by President
Grant. The territory appropriated solely to the Indians
is as large as England and Wales, and beyond
its limits are immense plains, almost unin-
habited, over which the aboriginal tribes have free
range. Hence the impunity with which the most frightful
outrages are committed. Hostilities have again broken
out, and the Indians have apparently carte blanche. They
have wrecked a train on the Pacific Railway. They have
murdered twenty people in Western Kansas. At another
settlement four men were killed, and eight women and
children carried into captivity. In South-Western Kansas
an unprotected settlement was attacked, and thirteen
persons killed in the most treacherous manner. The
bodies of these unfortunate settlers were dreadfully muti-
lated ; their tongues and hearts were cut out, their ears cut
off, the calves of their legs slit, and telegraph wires thrust
through their bodies. Of course troops are employed, but
the difficulty is not to beat the Indians, but to catch thew.

THE BALLOT IN AUSTRALIA.

The way- balloting is carried on in Australia awl
elsewhere is of the last importance at a time when
every election makes converts to secret voting.
Colonel Torrens, a clay or two ago, described before
the EleCtions Committee the way the polling was
carried on in South Australia. But he appears to have
made a mistake. He said that the voter hirnse:f
dropped his voting paper into the ballot-box.
It is not so. The Electoral Act commands him to
" fold the Paper, and immediately deliver it so folded
to the returning officer or to his deputy, who shall
fortwith publicly, and without opening the same.
deposit it in a box to be provided for that purpose.''
The point is a small one perhaps, but is worthy of
attention just now.

lle tws,rittoess,ayinthefilaegarsituaotf
defiance of the risponsibility of his position as a
Cabinet Minister, a political manifesto of a really
disgraceful character, the meaning of every word
of which (if words have any meaning at all) was
as plain as a pike staff : and then, when h., is na-
turally enough called to account for this, he autho-
rizes his colleague, Lord GRANVILLE, to aisure the
house of Lords that if he is supposed to have meant
so-and-so (the only possible meaning of any kind
haskind
that could be attached to his language) he
been entirely misapprehended. JOHN BULL is
not in the habit of eating his own words. Jolts
BULL has a proverbial love of roast beef, but a total
disrelish for humble pie. JOHN BULL neither blusters
nor cringes. He has a natural distaste for either
bullying or sneaking. Now, the very humblest of
humble pie is what Mr. BRIGHT has just partaken of
—and very largely—and apparently with a relish !
And he has consented to do this as publicly as pos-
siblc—not on the sly, or under the rose, or in a hole
and corner. Last evening the house of Lords was
crowded, as we never remember to have seen it
crowded upon any previous occtvion. It was simply
crammed. Peeresses were closely packed side by side
the whole length of the galleries. Peeresses clustered
together, looking over one another's shoulders,
through the open doorways, all along those two
confronting side galleries. Peeresses were actually
perched as upon " 'coigns of 'vantage" upon the top
over the Throne. The Heir
cf the gilded canopy'
Apparent was seated upon the cross Leaches iu the
body of the House. The Government and the Op-
position were there—in a double sense—rank upon
rank. Several of the junior members of the
Royal Family were, here and there, distinguishable

TRADE BETWEEN CANADA AND THE UNITED STATES.

The leading commercial men of New York are occu-
pying themselves, not with warlike projects or impracti-
cable demands upon England, but with schemes for the
promotion of trade between their own country and Canada.
The New York Chamber of Commerce has passed reso-
lutions, exhorting the President to renew negotiations
with the British Government, and to secure an
arrangement for reciprocal trade with Canada, in-
cluding freedom of the River St. Lawrence and the freedom
of the coast fisheries of British North America. Some of
the speeches trade on this occasion slim how rapidly
liheral ideas of trade policy are making way in the States.
GenP.- Walbriage said that, while he would welcome the
people of Canada into the Union, he did not believe it
good policy to attempt to coerce Canada by commercial
restrictions into a union with the United States. By a
renewal of reciprocity, he added, the United States would
become the merchants of 4,000,000 people, whom the
Present policy drives away.

IN:IFIMECTION IN (L'13.1.

The correspondent of the Daily .Ncws—formerly one of
the most profound disbelievers in the Cuban insurrection
—now expresses the opinion that affairs in Cuba are going
badly for the Spaniards. The insurrection has at least
attained such respectable proportions as to afford work fot
the American filibusters. " The insurgents have un-
doubtedly succeeded in doing what they set themselves to
do at the outset, namely, keep up the semblance of a
rebellion in the island long enough to enable them to excite
sympathy and procure assistance from the United States.
Considerable sums of money have been raised here for
them, and large quantities of supplies purchased and for
to the island. Moreover, parties of filibusters
have undoubtedly reached Cuba, headed by, and indeed
largely composed of, old soldiers both of the Federal and
Confederate armies." It is now certain that Genera:
Jordan, at the head of a privateer force, has succeeded in
landing at Nipe Bay, and has joined the insurgents after
a battle of some magnitude. " Henceforth," says the
correspondent of the Daily News, " the fighting will be
clone by Americans." Ire believes that the delays, dissen-
sions, and excesses of the past three months have done
irreparable injury to the Spanish cause.

THAMES.

A DANGEROUS MISCREANT.—WiIIiam Bass, aged forty
years, described as a mendicant, was brought before Mr.
Paget, char&ed with being drunk and disorderly, and
wilfully breaking a gas lamp, value 35., in Whitechapel.
The prisoner was ragged, dirty, and had not been washed,
shaved, or hot or cold water applied to his head, face, and
body since he was last in prison, and a more disgusting
object was never seen. He applied at the H division
station-house, in Whitechapel, yesterday evening for :an
order for the casual ward, and told by Newman, No. 20 11,
that he was too early and must come later. The prisoner,
who was very drunk, abused the constable, and made a
great disturbance. He said he would soon have an order
for the casual ward or for a prison. Soon afterwards the
constable heard a crash in the street, and upon going out
saw a gas lamp and iron post, belonging to the Whits-
chapel Board of Works, broken up into a hundred pieces,
and the prisoner standing by exulting in the mischief he
had done.
Mr. Paget asked the prisoner if he meant to spend
all his time in prison.
The prisoner—l want my rights.
Mr. Paget—Your rights ? You deserve a sound flog-
ging ; you are a dissipated, drunken, mischievous fellow.
Newman— He has been committed to prison twice in

the course of the last six weeks.
Mr. Paget—He has been committed to prison 100 times.
He is a nuisance to society. The prisoner was committed
by me four years and a half ago, when I was just ap-
pointed. He is a destructive ill-conditioned impostor, a
regular mendicant. It is no use to fin• him. He is sen-
tenced to two months' imprisonment and hard labour.
Take him away, and don't let him remain here a moment
longer.

METROPOLITAN RAILWAY.—On Tuesl.ty last their
Highnesses Hassan Pacha, the son of the Viceroy of
Egypt, and his cousin, Prince Tussoun Pacha, son of the
late Viceroy, Said Pacha, attended by Colonel Gramble,
C. 8., and their respective suites, made a minute inspec-
tion of the Ilnderground Railway from Westminster-
bridge to Moorgate-street. Mr. Fowler, the engineer
of the company, and Mr. Myles Fenton, the general
manager, describ d the peculiar works and system of
working and signalling of the line. Their High-
nesses expressed their great admiration: of the works,
and their astonishment at the ♦ast numbers of passengers
and the facility and safety with which they were con-

veyed.
In the Divorce Court this morning the Judge
Ordinary refused to decree dissolution of marriage in the

VIE GALE.

The tale which has prevailed during this week has done
great damage among the shipping on our Northern and
Eastern coasts. Several vessels Have been driven ashore
near Dunbar, on the east coast of Scotland. One of them,
a schooner, went ashore near Tyne Water, aed was
dashed to pieces, the crew being drowned. A brig, sup-
posed to have been the Cityof,A.berdeen,also struck upon
the rocks and went to pieces. The crew scrambled up the
rocks, and the.coastguardsmen attempted to reach them,
but all were washed away.' Another schooner went
ashore at Tyne., ,Sapda, and it is feared that
all hands were lost. A telegram from Edinburgh reports
that more than-twelve vessels were ashore at Dunbar at
one time, and that four milesof the coast were strewn with
wrecks and cargo. Off North Berwick the storm has been
felt with great severity. A. Marge vessel was driven on
the Maiden Rock, near the harbour, and the crew were
in imminent danger, but they were happily rescued by the
North Berwick Lifeboat, after great exertion. Three
fishing-boats were lost off Saltburn-by-the-Sea, with
a loss of nine lives. Unfortunately, a large
fleet of fishing-boats had left the Tyne on Tues-
day for tt, herring fishery, and several of them are
missing. The greatest anxiety prevails among the rela-
tives and friends of the missing crew, and the men whose
boats have come back safely have lost many valuable nets.
From South Shields great disasters are reported.
The Anne of Rye went on the Trow Rocks and became
a total wreck. filer crew were saved by the Volunteer
Life Brigade men, who also assisted in saving many lives
from fishing-boats in distress.
The lifeboats on the coast have, as usual, been doing
good service. The lifeboat Sheffield succeeded on Wed-
nesday morning in saving four lives from a Hartlepool
fishing vessel, which had drifted on the rocks near Bruns-
wick Bay. The lifeboat at Anstruther, N. 8., went out
to render assistance to distressed vessels. It deserves
to be noticed that the boat was launched in
ten minutes after she was sent for, though she had
been just painted, and, in consequence, everything
was out of her. The loss of life seems to have been
unusually heavy for the time of the year. From Hartle-
pool we learn that some thirty sail of local boats are as
yetunaccounted for, while on the Scarborough coast the
services of the harbour-master and of the lifeboat men
have been in constant requisition.

CROWDING UPON ROYALTY.

Civilisation has not taught the English people one
piece of manners yet. They are still addicted to the
mobbing of royally. Royal Highnesses in this
country, one would almost think, were made to be
stared at. A flower- show was held at the Metropo-
litan Botanic Gardens on Wednesday, at which the
Prince of Teck and the Princess Mary attended. The
vis:tors were most fashionable, and yet tVeir chief
amusement was to crowd around the royal couple,
to follow them wherever they went, to pass com-
ments within the bearing of the Prince en his dress,
beating, eyebrows, to gum about his temper as (I.;s-
-played in his features, and to mal,.e the visit to the
Gardens as uncomfortable as possible, so far as the
chief visitors were concerned.

Proprietors, August 14, 1868—Colonel CHARLES
WETHERALL, K.C.T., Chairman of the Company, in
the Chair. _ _ _

Tho proprietors will no doubt remember that at the last
annual general meeting a report was made to them for the
quinquennial period then terminating, and that a bonus
was declared in respect of it amounting to the sum of
R• 204,774. The surplus fund account, as under, commences

bolus—thsat-is to say, with the debit of ..£772,740:=9.1:

The assured will thus always hive the option of retain-
ing either an ascertained fixed sum payable at decease,
or, in case of need, of withdrawing a certain amount, ac-
cording t the duration of the Policy, such amounts being
set forth on every Policy, and rendering unnecessary any
future reference to the Company oa these points, as is the
case with ordinary assurances.
Creditors assuring the lives of debtors will appreciate
this feature as ono greatly protective of their interests, and
it will likewise commend itself to bankers, capitalists, and
others who are in the habit of making advances collaterally
secured by Life Policies, as they can at any time learn, by
mere inspection, the exact value, either immediate or re-
version a ry, of a Policy of this description.
Every Policy issued on this' plan will be without any
conditions.as to voyaging, foreign residence, or other usual
limitations. By this freedom from restrictions of all kinds
the objections before referred to will be entirely removed,
and the Policies will become at once positively valuable as
actual securities.

In addition to the foregoing statement of advantages,
the number of premiums is strictly defined. The longest
term provided for is twenty-fire years, and the shortest
five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, tankers, credi-
tors, and others bolding policies of this alas as security,
may always know the utmost amount they may be called
upon to advance so as to mair.tain the full benefit of the
Assurnr.:-..es—a matter of great importance where policies
are held as collateral security.

It is only necessary to add that, as a consequenen of the
policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon-
ditional, they will also be unclialleugeable on any ground
whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute
S:eirrity 1' lieieg.

sesoes an income of £215,000 a year Its position is un-

THE BALLOT IN AITSTBALIA.

The way balloting is carried on in Australia and
elsewhere is of the last importance at a time when
every election makes converts to secret voting.
Colonel Torrens, a day or two ago, described before
the Elections Committee the way the polling was
carried on in South Australia. But he appears to have
made a mistake. He said that the voter himself
dropped his voting paper into the ballot-box.
It is not so. The Electoral Act commands him to
" fold the paper, and immediately deliver it so folded
to the returning officer or to his deputy, who shall
fortwith publicly, and without opening the same,
deposit it in a box to be provided for that purpose!)
The point is a small one perhaps, but is worthy of
attention just now.
