BONUS MEETING, 1867.

The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 3d
January last, for the declaration of the EIGHTH .13oxus,
showed,

1. As TO THE PROGRESS OF THE SOCIETY,

IA during the quinquennial period which terminated on

ie 30th June, 1366,

NEW ASSURANCES for a total sum of £1,518,181,
and yielding £50,497 in Annual Premiums, had been
effected, of which sums the former exceeded £31,811,
and the latter by £2,392, the corresponding items of any
previous period; that
T ITE LNCOIIE had increased from £195,100 to £215,327
per annum; and that
THE ASSURANCE FUND, after plyment of £85,303
on account of Bonus at the last Division, had risen from
£1,422,191 to £1,619,339.
2. As TO THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE SOCIETY.
That the Assets on June 30, 1866, were £1,619,539 14 8
And the Liabilities on the same date 1,313,708 19 2

Leaving a surplus of £275,830 15 6

and that, after setting aside £50,000 as a special Reserve
Fund, •
THE AVAILABLE PROFIT wag £225,830 15s. 6d.,
of which sum £225,000 was recommended for division.

•
3. As TO TILE RESULTS OF TIIE
That the portion of this sum of .E225,000—viz., five-sixths,
or £lB7,soo—which fell to the Assured, would yield a
REVERSIONARY ADDITION TO TilE POLICIES
of £272,682, averaging 45 per Cent., or varying, with the
different ages, from 32 to 85 per Cent. on the premiums
paid since the last division; and that the
CASH BONUS, which is the exact equivalent of such
Reversionary Bonus, would average 26 per Cent. of the
like premiums.
• Tho Report explained at length the nature of the In-
vestments and the bases of the Calculations, the results of
which, as above shown, are eminently favourable.

The next DIVISION OF PROFITS will take place in
January, 1872, and Persons who effect NEW POLICIES
BEFORE THE END OF JUNE NEXT will be entitled
at that Division to one year's additional share of Profits
over later Assurers.

Prospectuses, Forms of Proposal, the Report above men-
tioned, and a detailed account of the proceedings of the
Bonus Meeting, can bo obtained from any of the Society's
Agents; or of

victed boroughs ; and every subsequent clause con-
tains proposals of disfranchisement, which must
occasion opposition, or of enfranchisement, which
will raise a crowd of competitors for the privileges
of representation. There are further amendments
for altering the plan of conferring additional mem-
lyrs on populous constituencies, and for reforming
the method of voting itself. When the Chancellor
of the Exchequer brought in the Reform Bill he
more than half acknowledged the meagre character
of the scheme of
.redistribution is embodied, and
professed himself not unwilling to be encouraged
by the support of the house to greater efforts. We
trust the offer will be met, and the implied promise
redeemed. The enfranchisement bestowed by the
bill is ample and generous; let the redistribution of
seats and the reform of our electoral machinery be
as bold and statesmanlike, and the bill of 1867 will
settle the problem-of Reforin for a longer time than
did its famous predecessor of 1832.
TIIE " WESTMINSTER GAZETTE" ON OUP. INTEL-
LECTUAL PROGRESS.—Next to the votaries of
Wealth, the worshippers of Intellect are undoubt-
edly the most numerous and most powerful body of
the upper classes of England at the present time.
In fact, atno period, probably, in the history of the
world, even from the ripest days of Athenian genius,
have men of intellectual power evinced greater
activity, wielded greater influence, or obtained
higher consideration from their fellows, by reason
of their mental gifts. Indeed, it may be safely said
that Mind is now fighting on equal terms with
Money for public favour, and in no way cedes the
palm to its rival. But a few years ago—within
the memory almost of living men--first-rate talent,
combined with the widest learning and greatest
culture, was impotent to save its possessor from
absolute want. Those works which we have now
come to regard as masterpieces of literature, and
ornaments to- our lanemage, failed to procure for
their authors even the barest livelihood, or to aid
them over the temporary difficulties beneath the
pressure of which they not unfrequently produced
some of their best writings. But now we have
changed all that. Posterity has done what it
could to recognise the merits of those literati who
were neglected by their own generatiOn, and we
are in danger of running- to the opposite extreme
in the treatment of the authors of our day. . Not
only do we now lavish .abundant praise, together
with more substantial rewards, upon works of
undoubted power and merit in the higher ranks
of literature, but fortunes are amassed and repu-
tations made by novels, and works .of a like cha-
racter, whose literary worth is of a very dubious
kind. If any stronger proof were wanting of the
great change of attitude wrought in our generation
towards the professors of intellect, nothing could
more clearly show the power they have acquired
than their ready admission within the body of
our national Legislature, to which formerly only
unbounded wealth and personal influence opened
the way. In fact, from being almost a stigma
of contempt, literature—the outward manifesta-
tion of intellectual activity—has come to be a
lever by which a man may raise himself to the
highest places of emolument and honour, and
acquire an immense influence over a vast num-
ber of his fellow-creatures. It may be well, per-
haps, to look for a moment how the change has
been made, and what is its practical tendency.
The difference we have pointed out in the present
position of mental power, as compared with a few
years past, is, of course, duo to the great change
effected in the intellectual state of the bulk of
the people. When, at the close of last century,
we came out of the struggles in which we had been
gloriously engaged. on behalf of the freedom of
Europe, the nation settled down to-what has since
proved to be a period of comparatively unbroken
quiet,- and was thus enabled to divert its energies to
internal improvement, and the prosecution of the
arts of peace. The wonderful scientific discoveries
brought to light during this time, and the steady
and gradual enlightenment which broke upon a
multiplicity of subjects, served to fix firmly upon
the mind the doctrine of the proverb which teaches
that " knowledge is power." Impressed with this
notion, many began to see that we had been too
long in a state of ignorance, and that if we were
to do any good—if England were to acquire power,
its people must be' placed in a position to gain
that essential preliminary to power—knowledge.
The cry once raised, and the tide of opinion fairly
turned, as is generally the case in such matters,
the reaction of public feeling was sudden and
rapid. Educate, educate, became the watchword,
which still resounds on-all sides of us. Education
was to prove the panacea for all evils. Teach the
people to read and write, it was said, and they will
be thoroughly regenerated ; they will abandon
all their vices and will become virtuous and orderly.
Beneath the influence of this movement, there have
been established in the last few years, partly at the
expense of the State, National Schools, throughout
the length and breadth of the land, for the educa-
tion of the poorer classes. Municipal money and
that private patronage for which England is so

to this, there has grown up, with our increased
commerce and prosperity, a wealthy and numer-
ous middle-class, whose money has enabled them
to provide for their children a better and more
complete mental training than that given to our
working-classes. Still further to help on the course
of knowledge, we have thrown open many branches
of the public service to competition, by which
method we profess to bestow upon the fittest
of our youths appointments in the executive de-
partments of the Government, formerly supposed
to fall by patronage to very inefficient ser-
vants. And. we have set on foot all over the
country, in connection with the univereitioe,
public examinations .under very attractive con-
ditions, which may be considered no mean incen-
tive in the same direction. It is by the impetus
thus given to the acquisition of learning, rendering
it as it were a sine qua non for success in life, that
we have completely reversed the position. formerly
hell by the professors of Intellect,. We have created
a remunerative demand for their services, greater
almost than can be supplied, which has brought
them from a state of want and obscurity to one of
affluence and honour. But what has been the result
of this eager quest of knowledge, and in what man-
ner have our intellectual men employed the influ-
ence so unexpectedly put into their hands? • Some
eager interlocutor immediately replies : Look at
the intelligence which is now manifested in every
direction. See how our libraries are constantly
besieged by. readers of every class. Note the
penny papers, which are scattered broadcast over
.the country every day by the hundred thousand,
and let these facts bear testimony to the lively in-
terest now manifested -in general literature and
the affairs of the world at large. Where else
than in Protestant England do you see displayed
a like mental activity to that which is proved, be-
ond doubt, to exist amongst us' by the wondrous
development of our public press ? What an im-
mense advance, in fact, have we not made upon
the old state of things ! At first sight this lan-
guage sounds very unanswerable and convincing.
But let us look for one moment at the literature
so eagerly devoured by this improved and enlight-
ened generation. With regard to their interest in
general literature what are the facts? Is it not
undeniably true that the chief call upon the libra-
ries is for the productions of the Braddova and.
Woods of the day, not to mention the minor mem-
bers of the same branch of the craft, to the true
influence and tendency of whose works no.discern-
ing person can be blind? Yet the tone of decided
immorality, more or less deep, which pervades oiir
novels, is less pernicious and less enduring than the
ri
terrible spirit of .Atlicisin which inspiti-e.s,

which they are designed. The productions of
Paine, of Colenso, of Renan, arc now to be found
in the hands of nearly all who can read, but who
have not the necessary knowledge to detect the
danger latent behind the display of intellectual fire-
works by which their *mental vision is dazzled and
confused. Left to the resources of their own feeble
reason—enfeebled by the very fact of the mere
smattering of secular learning given them—Lthey
are ea3ily enmeshed in the snares !aid for them. Do
we turn from this view of the matter to the-field of
journalisin the result is the same—perhaps worse.
It is the province of jmirnalisin to guide the in-
tellect of the country-to direct the mind of the•
multitude to a proper appreciation of matters of
public well-being and morality ; and no one who
is in the habit of coming in contact with all classes
of people—from the rich to the poor—can fail to
see how effectively each is guided by its own special
organ. It would be well for the nation, indeed, if
such a powerful influence as journalism is every-
where acknowledged to be were consistently and
universally exerted amongst us on the side Of jus-
tice and virtue. Far from this, however, being
the case, the majority of our papers are devoted to
the dissemination of revolutionary and destructive
doctrines. The indefeasible rights of sovereigns, '
whose claims date back for ages, are ignored, and
their subjects openly exhorted to rebellion. The
safeguards of religion are ruthlessly attacked by
these public prints, and the deep-seated convic-
tions and inalienable beliefs of millions of fellow-
creatures—amongst whom are thousands whose in-
telligence and honesty do not admit of doubt—are
publicly scorned and ridiculed. In pointof'nor-
4lity; .fotS7nntlinri,,--cnn be weers&Vrish the- wide sir•
culation given—and that by the cheapest part of
the press—to the revolting reports of some of
our public courts. Indeed, on reading the ac-
counts of many' of these cases, given with such
fulness of detail, an impartial person would not •
hesitate to say that they were specially prepared to
appeal to the degraded passions of the lowest stra-
tum of society. Such, in brief, is the way in which
English journalism too often acquits itself of its
responsibilities ! It is the custom to compare the
• intellectual condition of the past generation with
that of our day—much, of course, to the advantage
of our own times. We have certainly taught the
masses to read and write ; and, having thus ren-
dered them susceptible of mental impressions, we
have handed them over helpless, to the purveyors
of infidelity and the writers of sensation novels.
Our youth is not educated. We cram them with
crude figures and facts,--of abiding principles, but
• which should guide them to the choice of what is
good and true, and enable them to reject what is
false and vicious, we have taught them nothing.
Looking to the results which may be seen around
us, one may be permitted to doubt if, after all, our
ignorant ancestors are so much to be pitied ! Yet
the deplorable state of irreligion, to which our in-
tellectual prOgress is rapidly hurrying the nation,
is only the natural outcome of our false system
of education. Instead of bringing in religion to
control and direct the advance of intelligence, it
is the aim of modern science to keep them separate
and independent-7and even to render them antago-
nistic. The antagonismS resulting between the hy-
potheses of science and the doctrines of religion
are strongly insisted upon, and made to tell with
destructive effect upon the pliant and suscep-
tible minds of their pupils by the Atheistic pro-
fessors who lead in the van of learning; and the
result is what we now see—the elevation of In-
tellect, in the esteem of men, to time place of God.
The tide of infidelity is rising rapidly around us,
and the only foundation yet unsapped -. by its
action—the only barrier capable of resisting its
advance—is the Rock of the Church, whose
strength and numbers are steadily increasing as
the crisis becomes more imminent.

Banquet at the Mansion-house.

-

Last evening the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress
entertained her Majesty's Judges, many of the more
prominent members of the Bar, members of Parlia-
ment, the Court of Aldermen, Sheriffs of London,
the metropolitan magistrates, and others at dinner at
the Mansion-house. The banquet was one of the.
customary series given in every mayoralty, and was •
served as usual in the Egyptian-hall. The guests
were about 250 in number, and were received by the
Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress in the principal
saloon. There were present, among others, Lord
Chief Justice and Lady Bovill, Lord Justice and
Lady Turner, Vice-Chancellor Wood and Lady
Wood, Vice-Chancellor and Lady Malins, Mr. Baron
and Lady Martin, Mr. Baron and Miss Bramwell,
Mr. Justice and Miss Shee, Mr. Justice and Lady
Smith, Mr. Justice and Lady Lush, Sir William and
Lady Erle, the Judge-Advocate-General and Miss
Mowbray, the Queen's Advocate and Lady Philli-
more, &c.
On the removal of the cloth the Lord Mayor and
Lady Mayoress drank to the guests in a " loving
cup." The usual loyal toasts were then given in suc-
cession from the chair, and drank with all the custo-
mary respect. The toasts of " The Army, Navy, and
Volunteers," proposed by the Lord Mayor, Lieut.-
Gen. Sir G. Lawrence, Vice-Admiral Robinson, and
Lieut.-Col. Hawkshaw, C.E., respectively replied.
The LORD MAYOR next gave the toast of " The
Equity and Common Law Judges," referring in
eloquent terms to the righteous and impartial admi-
nistration of the law which distinguishes the times
in which we live.
Chief Justice BovILL, whose name had been
associated with the toast, acknowledged the high
compliment paid to her Majesty's Judges.
They had,
that tr which
he said, ever received there, Ps in
every assembly of Englis
orknemhen,
their predecessors in tier times ibute
deserved. They
were honoured that evening with the company of a
distinguished man, in whose footsteps he himself
humbly endeavoured to tread (referring to SirWni.
Erie, the mention of whose name was enthusiasti,
tally cheered). He remarked in passing that there
was no post on the English Bench which was not
open to any man in this country who devoted him-
self with assiduity to the study and practice of the
law, awl he alluded in grateful terms to the encou-
ragement and assistance which its younger practi-
tioners had received from thecorporation of London.
Mr. ROMIUCK, M.P., who in rising was loudly
cheered, responded to the toast of " The House of
Commons," with which his name had been con-
nected by the Lord Mayor. He felt, he said, how
inadequate he was to speak for that great body
of which he was a member. A mighty theme, be
said, required a mighty advocate, and a mighty
theme the House of Commons was, though it was
now the habit to speak of that assembly in dis
paraging terms. Men eager to be in office cried
down the Hotise of Commons, forgetting bow much
the people of England owed to the institution.
It was, in fact, the oldest representative assembly
in the world, and, he believed, the greatest. It re-
presented the intelligence, the feelings, the habits,
and the wishes of the English people, and it had re-
sponded to them, not altogether throughout its ex-
istence, but certainly of late years it had placed this
country in a position which every other country was
bound to envy. Look, he said, at our law and our
liberty. In every station of life a man could ex-
press what he thought, and in expressing what Ile
thought he was iu no danger. Bearing all that in
mind, he wanted to know what the House of Com-
who were mons could do? It had been said, and said truly,
that there were parties in the countr
not represented. Look at the prteisieelytetallil,ouslevotsf
