ENGLISII. AND IRISH CHURCH AND
ASSURA2WE ZOCIETY.

The annual meeting of the Englis'zi and liish Church and
University Assurance Society was held yesterday at the
chief offices of 'the society, 355, Strand. The chair was
taken by W. F. Dobson, Esq., M.A., chairman of the
board of directors, who, was supported by the Rev. J. E.
Cox, M.A., Vicar of St. Helens, Bishopsgate, deputy chair-
man, Rev. J. W. Watson, Tulse Hill, the Rev. 'l'.
H. Bulbick, Guy's Hospital; T. L. Wilson, Esq., Fred.
Heath, Esq., G. Newman, Esq., and Peter Paterson, Esq.,
&c., Sze: Amithg the shareholders present, and by whom
the various resolutions were proposed and seconded, were
W.Ashton, Es4l,. F D. B. Webster, Esq., the'Rev. T. Cator,
of Skelbrooke-park, Doncaster; the Rev. J. B. Owen, M.A.,
of St. Jude's, Chelsea; the Rev. Mr. Rigg, M.A. King-
ston; the Rev: E. E. RowsQll, M.A., Brinkley, Cambridge-
shire, &c: &c.
The report of the directors, and balance-sheet having
been read by the secretary, Anthony Peck, Esq., M.A.,
The CitAntitkN congratulated the meeting on the suc-
cesSfhl amalgamation of the three offices, the English
and Irish Church, the Engineers', and !Householders'.
At the ' time when the amalgamation was decided on,
he had 'stated that the probable income .of the three
united offices would be £25,000 per annum, and as the
income from premiums now announced amounted to
£23,039,' which amount included the income of the House-
holders for only nine months, the meeting would perceive
that his 'anticipations had been fully realised, The expenses
of management might appear large, but those expenses
really comprehended the outlay of the three offices sepa-
rately, and for the future would be reduced almost by two-
thirds. • Usually in amalgamations a considerable, margin q
was allowed for loss of income, through the lapse of po-
licies ; but so great had been the confidence inspired in
the policyholders in the present instance by the accession
of strength gained from the union, that the number of
lapsed policies has been exceedingly•small, and the loss of
income proportionately insignificant. The chairman
forcibly
:urged upon the shareholders present that they
should not consider that they had discharged their duty to
the company in which they were partners, by merely at-
tending the annual meeting, but that they ought to.recom-
mend the society to their friends, and strenuously exert
themselves to bring new business to the office,
The following were among the chief resolutions which
were unanimously passed : '
" That the reports of the directors and auditors be seve-
rally received, adopted, and confirmed."
g, That W. F... Dobson, Esq., be elected a trustee of the
society in .the place of Benjamin Blakemore, Esq., M.P.,
deceased."
"That the directors be hereby authorised to pay.s per
cent. interest upon the paid-up capital of the company to
the 31st March."

" That the directors be hereby authorised to establish 3
scholarships, at Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin, of the
value of £3O each, with such limitations as to the number
of candidates as the directors may think fit."
" That the cordial thanks of this meeting be given to
the Chairman and Directors for their able conduct of the
affairs of the Society."
" That the thanks of this meetin€, be given to the medi-
cal officers, consulting actuary, and solicitors of the society
for their excellent advice upon all matters connected with
the society!'
. .
" That the thank§ of the Proprietors be given to the
Dublin board."
" That the thanks of the Proprietors be given to the
secretary of the . society (Mr. Anthony Peck), the Dublin
Secretary„and to the officers of the society for their services."
In conclusion, we may observe that the greatest harmony
prevailed throughout the proceedings of the meeting, which
was numerously attended, and that the general feeling was
one of entire satisfaction at the success which is character-
ising the operations of the combined societies. .

AMERICA AND THE WAR.

(FrOm the New—York Herald.)

.
On the thresbold of a general war, 'inv. olving a
"rectification of the boundaries" of perhaps every
state of Europe—a contest which in 'its cense-
qaences may prove to be a counterpart cif the wars
resulting from the first French Revolultion-L--the
question naturally arises, is this great power, .the
United States of America, to remain an idle specta-
tor of this tremendous drama from the lifting to
the dropping of• the curtain ! We should answer
no! For • while the belligerents of Europe are
absorbed in the formidable work of reconstructing
their cheelks against each other, there Will be an
opportunity afforded for the quiet settlement of.the
" balance of poiver" on this continent which our
Government cannot and will not regard with indif-
ference. •

We have full authority for this declaration in the
regular and special messages of Mr. Buchanan to
the late Congress concerning Mexico, Central Ame-
rica, and the island of Cuba. They are each to us
what Turkey is to Europe, " a sick man," who can
only be sated frOm the most terrible dissolution by
the most powerful remedies. It is reported thatthis
European . entanglement hinges upon an under-
standing between the Emperor Alexander, King of
Sardinia, and Louis. Napoleon, in reference to "the
sick man" of Turkey and the eastward extension of
the power and civilisation of Russia. In any event,
we may safely predict that in the terrible struggle
between Austrian and French arms and ideas in
Italy, the paramount idea with Russia will be the
opening of her " road to Constantinople."
In view of this important element in the general
European programme, England may now.be occu-
pying an enforced position of armed neutrality ; for
ere long, with or without the co-operation of France,
she may be called to the defence of the overland
route to India. Surely there will be work enough
in this prodigious job of the reconstruction of the
map of Europe to occupy for a year or two the un-
divided attention of England and France: Nor is
it probable that Spain will be permitted to play,
meantime,
.the part of a passive spectator. She is
too intensely devoted to and identified with the Pope
and the Church of Rome to remain neutral in a
contest involving the very existence of Rome as
the head-quarters of the Church. But if Spain
should still
.findit her policy to stand aloof, the
fierce contagion of war will almost certainly re-
kindle within her own borders the fires. of insurrec-
tion and revolution.
Thus, then, with France, England, and Spain
completely absorbed in the bloody European. drama,
what will there be to prevent the government at
Washington from quietly settling the troubles and
complications of cur " sick" neighbours- upon a
strong and solid American basis P Mr. Buchanan
has definitely settled the Kansas question ; and
he has put the Mormon difficulty into such a shape
that it will very soon settle itself. At the same
time the revived and still increasing financial and
commercial prosperity of the country disposes of
the otherwise troublesome tariff question. The
schedules of 1857 will answer the .. purposes of
relieving the Treasury, and bountiful crops and an
increased carrying trade will satisfy the present
wants of the country. There will thus, in Con-
gress, be no disturbing democratic issues .in the
way of a bold and decisive. American foreign policy.
Under the pressure of general war and bank-
ruptcy in Europe; Spain may be perseaded to sell
her " ever faithful island," Mexico may be quietly
induced to part with half her territories, or to come
boldly into the Union ; and the states of . Central
America may be moulded to the "true intent and
meaning" of the Munroe doctrine. During the siege
of Sebastopol there was such an opportunity for
these interventions on our part, looking to the com-
mercial and military "balance of power" on this
continent, but the trifling and vacillating adminis-
tration of poor Pierce permitted the occasion to pass
away. Mr. Buchanan has already indicated a more
positive and decisive policy; and had he been pro-
perly seconded by. the late democratic Congress, we
believe that, with the meeting of the new Congress
in December next, the wisdom and sagacity of his
recommendations would be proved by the most
substantial results.

We presume that the President, in his ner
annual message, will adhereto the bold and masterl3
foreign policy recommended in his last, with sucl:
modifications of a more decisive character 'as cit.

cumstances and the occasion may suggest. In this
he will be supported 'by the public opinion of the
country, and he may be able to make au impression
upon Congress which will be equivalent to the
shaping of the issues and the parties for the Presi-
dential succession._ With all the dirty gossip, and

,waddle, and. scandalous abuse Levelled a-ainii him

by disappointed office beggars and Opposition poets,
penny-a-liners, and hangers-on outside public
kitchens superadded to party rebellions, treacheries,
and conspiracies unprecedented in American poli-
tics, Mr. Buchanan's administration has not been
shaken. It stands in a more promising position now

than at any other time since his inauguration. In
spite of a distracted, divided, and powerless party,
he has cleared the •main obstacles from his path.
His course henceforward lies over a comparatively
smooth and open plain. All the signs of the times
are in his favour.

'hus, by the meeting of next Congress, in view
of the troubles of Europe,. Mr. Buchanan may be
enabled to place our relations and our policy in
reference to the weak, sickly, disorganised, and
troublesome republics, islands, &c., of the Gulf of
Mexico and the Caribbean Sea in such a "palpable
shape" before the two houses, that they will be com-
pelled to act upon it. And why not ? While the
powers of Europe are absorbed in settling the "ba-
lance of power" here, there, and everywhere on
that continent, why should not we be doing the same
thing for the continent of America ?

DEATH OF MR. PASHLEY, Q.C.—We regret to
state that Mr. Pashley, the Assistant-Judge of the sessions
of the peace in and for the county of Middlesex, expired on
Sunday, at his residence in Manchester-square, at the age
of 54, after a short illness. Mr. Pashley had a very exten-
sive practice in the Court of Queen's Bench, in cases of ap-
peal from the decisions of Quarter Sessions all over the
country, but more especially cases coming under the • New
Poor-law Board Act. He succeeded to the office of Assistant
Judge of the Middlesei Sessions on the death of the late Mr.
Sergeant Adams*, after Which he was made a Queen's' Coun-
sel. He was first called to the bar by the Benchers of the
Inner Temple on the 17th of November, 1837, and was at
the time of his death steward of J(naresborough.

N NA 7710 N-
A WAR.

'ERMA

At the non-intervention meeting at Bradford on
Wednesday—M. Kossuth, after referring to the
strivings of the German nations for liberty and
national unity against Austrian domination, and
expressing his surprise that any German liberals
should'consider it their interest to support Austria,
went .on to .say—At the very moment when the
bloody' dice of war was cast, Francis Joseph
solemnly declared that he draws the sword against
revolution—you know that by •the despots' the aspirations for liberty and national independence
were always designated by that name—(cheers)—
and with that declaration we have. heard him boast
that, true to the mission of his house, he goes forth
to battle for order and his society. Order, indeed !
(Laughter.) His order is oppression. His society
is the passive obedience of the slave. Freedom is
order, sir. (Hear, hear.) Oppression is. disorder.
(Hear, Shear.) It is the anarchy of revolt against
the laws of nature and of nature's God. (Loud
cheers.;). The mission of his house:! Who should
not know that bloody mission ? It is the never-
ceasing war against liberty, both civil and religious
—war against culture and enlightenment, and
Protestantism—against free investigation into the
mission of the house of Austria. Cheers) In two
words,. the mission of the house. of Austria is
despotism and cowardice. (Cheers.) Shall the
friends of murdered Robert Blum ga forth'to battle
under the guidance of his murderer, Windiseligratz ?
Shall the cOuntrymen of Guttenbilrg follow the
'standard of Metternich ? And shall Schleswig-
Holstein be led by a Schwartzenberg ? (Hear,
hear, and cheers.) An Eastern maxim says that if,
in a difficulty, we do not know exactly what route
to follow, we should mark what course our enemies
take, and never be guided by them. (Laughter.)
Now, if the German democrats would follow this
simple reasoning of the East, then the flying
of the • Gotha Almanack men to—the rescue of
Austria might at once warn them that the
solicitude for Austria's safety may be .a proper
logic for petty despots and aristocrats, but it
is not exactly a commodity in which the German
nation should deal. (Cheers.) Neither is there an
excuse for this delusion to be found in the plea that
Austria . may help them to defend the Rhine.
(Hear, hear.) Besides, I cannot think. that even the
paternal-rule of their princes could have made the
gallant Germans so effete that they should not be
able to defend their own hearths unless supported
by unwill?ng Hungarians, Croats, Poles, and
Italians, .who hate Austria as their oppressor, and
might transfer their hatred to Germany if they see
that even German democrats advocate the suppres-
sion of all nationalities except their awn. (Hear.) Is it not a strange sight that German. liberals, nay late Republicans, should conjure from their graves
the spirit-of General Redovitz, their greatest, their
bitterest enemy, in 1848, and accept as an oracle his
paradox that the Rhine must be defended on the
Po ; in other words that Italy cannot be safe unless
Italy be kept in Austrian bondage ? (Hear, bear.)
Oh ! that a spark of the genius of Frederick 11. of
Prussia could enlighten the minds of Germany, that
they could see ,how, during a long life; he urged war
against Austria, because he saw that
.Germany was
rotten to the core under the ultramontane misman-
agement-of the Hapsburgs, and needed a resuscita-
tion under the guidance of Prussia: His policy
was forsaken by his successors, and 'Prussia sank
down into. Jesuitism so deep that even at this pre-
sent day it has not quite recovered from it. • Let
Prussia remember her mission. Let her understand
her mission, and her legitimate ambition to be
legally at the head of Germany, and the reconstruc-
tion of the unity of the German nation will soon be ful-
filled. Let the German patriots feel that the only
barrier against their national unity, was to
be found in the'fact that the House of Austria was the hated ruler of thirty millions of:people who
neither are Germans nor ever will submit to any
princes of. Germany. As soon as these are liberated
from the yoke of Austria, she, reduced to her pro-
per share, in Germany, will have no other but
German interests, and will no longer- stand in the
way of Germany becoming a united nation—(hear,
hear)—strong enough to withstand the combined
forces of France and Russia, if these powers should
ever be reckless enough to attack a nation fighting
for liberty 'and independence, and not; al now, for
the concordat and the oppression of the nationali-
ties. (" Hear, hear," 'and cheers.) The care of
Germany is plainly this :—Germany, from want of
national unity, is a mere geographical denomina-
tion ;it is the dwelling-place of a nationality, but
it is not a nation. Therefore, to becomea. nation
of unity is, the hereditary aspiration. of the Ger-
mans. (Hear, hear.) That unity of Germany
may be accomplished either under republican or
monarchical forms. To the first every German
prince of course, but especially Austria, is the chief
obstacle. To the second the only obstacle is the
house of Austria. In 184.5 the German nation
offered the Imperial Crown to the King of Prussia.
He answered, he would gladly accept it provided
the other princes gave their consent. Out of 32
princes Wurtemburg alone refused. .That was a • small matter of no import. The project of the
unity of Germany broke down under the opposi-
tion of Austria, because she said sho would not
submit, so long as she was a first-rate power, to
another German Emperor. (Hear, hear.) As to
the Hapsburgs, the German nation had had enough
of them already. If, forgetting all the lessons of
the past, they should elect a Hapsburg to the throne of Germany, the consequence would
be that the house of Hapsburg would bring them
a force derived from dominion over upwards of
thirty millions of people who did not belong
to the German race ; and where then would Ger-
man nationality be ? Where would Gerinan liberty
be ? With the thirty millions of non-Germans they
would hold. in bondage the Germans. By the
Germans they would hold in bondage the non-
Germans, and there would be slavery eVeryWhere.
(Hear, hear.) I trust you will excuse
.Me for not
delivering to you an eloquent oration. Really, I
have no time for it. I have quite other business on
my hands. *(Cheers.) From this exposition you
will understand that it is really astonishing to hear
how and by what process of reasoning the German
nation has arrived at the conclusion that it is their
duty and interest to protect the Emperor of. 'Aus-
tria. (Hear, hear.) Prussia is the real power of
Germany. ' The Queen of England must-feel a-very
deep interest in the future of Prussia, since she
couples the fate of her grandchild in the future fate
of the Prussian dynasty. (Hear, hear.) . Now,
gentlemen, I do not know whether in this country
there exists a court party; but supposing there is
one, if they-are really attached to their -Queen pert
in -
sonally, they should inform her that in Prussia i
is suicide to support Austria. As one rises the
balance the other sinks. If Germany were reallyl
in danger of an attack, I must say that I should re-
gard with great admiration the fact that the Ger-
man nation, which scarcely ever are united in any
single purpose, should appear ready to sink all
-
their past dissensions in the determination to pro-
tect their-fatherland from foreign invasion. But
there is absolutely no danger of such an attack
now, unless it be supposed that the Emperor of
the French .is entirely out of his senses. . (A
laugh.) He cannot but be anxious to avoid a
wor with Germany, since he has already a great
war on hand. There are facts to 'show that
that is his . opinion. The 47th article of the
Act of the German Confederation says that if
any member of the German Confederation is en-
gaged in war, not as a German, but as a European
Power, with that war the Germanic Confederation
could have nothing to do. France being at war
with Austria, Napoleon would certainly have a
right by the law of nations to attack 'Austria in
any part of her territory, whether belonging to
Germany or not ; yet, though he blockades every
port in the Adriatic, he spares Trieste, out of regard
to the Germanic Confederation, to which Trieste is
reputed to belong. This shows he is not anxious
to make an attack upon Germany. The fact is that
mighty influences are at work to divert the patriotic
feelings of the German nation to the profit of the
house of Austria. Well, but believe me, the -Ger-
mans will not rush into the danger, unless they are
made to believe that if they do so they will be -sup-
ported by England. There, therefore,' is your
danger. Therefore press upon your government
that they should tell the German nation that if they
choose to plunge into a war they will not be sup-
ported by England, and be sure of it they will not
move. But if upon the supposed support of England
they move, then be sure of it England will be
dragged into-the war under the pretence that you
cannot forsake Prussia, which is your natural ally.
The result will be a general, long, bloody European
war ; because if Germany, with England, sides with
the
Austria, then Russia will likewise step in
Nationn
against
opposite side, with France. (Hear, hear.)
would then be set against nation, brother
brother, and Europe would be once more exposed
