DISPUTED LIFE POLICIES.
" A trial of considerable Interest to Life Assurance Offices and the
public was concluded yesterday in the Court of Exchequer. The
Eagle Company held a policy for an assurance of 539/. in the Albion
Company as security for an advance, the payment of which policy
was now disputed by the Albion, on the ground that at the time it
was effected the fact of the assured party having been a man of in- '
temperate habits was concealed from the Mike. lhe chief evidence
turne i upon the question as to the degree of intempera e evidence
turne tht had
been exhibited, and the resWt was, that a verd:ct was given
the resisting office, not only for the amount of the policy, but also for
401. interest from the date when it became due. The circumstance
of the action being brought by one office against another presents a
striking illustration of the uncertainty which may attach to all po-
licies under the present system, and shows that the only mode by
which absolute security can be obtained by the public must lie in the
general adoption by Assurance Offices of the plan of prote-lif engach po-
them-
selves in ewry case by due inquiries before the grantim
licy, and of afterwards assuming the full responsibility 01 the cfrom
om-
pleteness of such inquiries by holding themselves precluded
raising any future question. In the present case two offices are
found to be diametrically opposed in their opinions as tc what
to be can
properly invalidate a claim, and yet the public are expected
_able to guare themselves against such contingences. Similar cases
have occurred before, and even if they were more rare, they
would
seriously injure the progress of life assurance. 'rhe very principle
upon which the business is founded is the removal of uncertainty,
and whenever that principle is counteracted in the slightest degree,
the people who would be the first to resort to its advantages are the
first to be deterred."—Times, July 11, 1850.

liamenterily and judicially conferred to the Corpora-
tion of London, and cannot concur in the proposed re-
moval of the market from the place where it has been
held by the citizens of London from time immemorial
under the common law and their charters, which
prohibit the establishment of any other market within
seven miles of the City, and which charters have
been confirmed by Parliament, and lately supported
by the judgment of the House of Lords, assisted by
the judges.
" The Corporation having recently prepared a
comprehensive plan and model for the purpose of meet-
ing the suggustions pointed out by the reports of the
several S,lect Committees of the House of Com-
mons, and proposed means for effecting it, they
cannot undertake the task of constructing a new
market without the limits of the City, for which no
site, nor plans, nor estimate is suggested ; whilst the
plan proposed by the Corporation is ready, when
sanctioned by Parliament, for immediate execution.

"Oa the 31st of July last, directions were given
to the Remembrances. to forward the above, and
since that period your Committee have not received
any reply from Mr. G. C. Lewis, nor had any fur-
ther communication from the Government upon the
subject.
" Your Committee, under the circumstances, are
of opinion, and recommend that in order to be pre-
pared for further proceeding, the proper notices should
be given of an application to Parliament by the Cor-
poration for the improvement of Smithfield-marker,
in conformity with the several resolutions of this
Honourable Court.
" To facilitate these measures, and prevent delay
in case this Honourable Court should agree with our
suggestion, we directed the officers to be prepared
with all requisite information, and we authorised the
architect to engage the needful assistance. We there-
fore seek the sanction of the Court for payment of all
necessary disbursements, not exceeding the sum of
5001. We have also fully reconsidered the plan for
the proposed alterations and enlargement of the mar-
ket, which was submitted to the Court on the 13th of
June last, and we have now finally declared and
arranged the same, so as to enable us to take the pre-
liminary proceedings by giving the proper notices SO
required in such cases.

" Dated this Bth day of October, 1850."
In order to have the matter put more clearly be-
fore the Court, the following paragraphs from the
report of the 11th of July were read as the discus-
sion proceeded :
" Instead of promoting our Parliatnentary measures
to obviate the alleged inconveniences, or to effect
the propositions heretofore made, the Government,
after the subject had been canvassed for upwards ( f
twenty-two years, issue a commission to one of the
Secretaries of State for the Home Deparinent, and
some other gentlemen, to inquire end consider whe-
ther any and what means can be properly and bene
ficially adopted for carrying into effect the recom-
mendations of the Committee of the House of Com-
mons of 1849.' A majority of those C3mmissioners
in their turn also made a report, without adopting any
practical plan for effecting the required ohj,cts.
These Commissioners likewise examined many wit-
nesses, whose evidence fills 136 folio pages, and these
reports appear to have been framed upon a con-
sideration of all these prior proceeding(. Your
Committee cannot but concur in the statement of
the two Commissioners, that the question of the re-
tnoval of Smithfield-market having been thus de-
bated for several pars past by various parties, it
may fairly be assumed, that in the course
of the different inquiries, all the grounds for its
removal h-ive been ascertained and stated, and are to
be found in the minutes of evidence, as well as in the
several petitions and reports presented from time to
time to Parliament.' Your cotnmittee, therefore,
concluded that the whole question may now be pro-
perly determined upon in former reports and evidence,
in conjunction with the two recently made to her
but the Com-
Majesty, and the evidence taken under the Commi.-
sion. Your commit tee are altogether unable to find
by, your committee,
in that report any facts extracted from the evidence
to warrant the inference there drawn'
it is advisahe to
drawn the atten-
missioners merely refer to certain reasons adopted by
them against the plan suggested
and arrive at the conclusion that

consideration, as well for the
fore, and upon every
benefit of the public at large as of the citizens of Lon-
don in particular your committee.. cannot but express
their firm and unaltered opinion, that the suggestion
for the removal of Smithfield-market, is without any
adequate reason, founded upon public considerations,
for the present, or any certainty as to its effects for
the future. They conceive that the full and exten-
sive inquiry, 'Pr t ibl. - of
more than
twenty ears, has only i-bed how easy it is to
exhibit evils and to counsel change, but how difficult
to propose well-digested improvements in the system
of supplying so larg opulation with food."
1,,. HALL then said that he regretted
Mr. Hellr.nry Lawrence Taylor,_ the chairman of the
Markets Improvement Committee, was not present
upon that occasion, but as that was the case, it re-
mained for him to state that the only object the com-
mittee had in view in the r( commendation they had
made, was to obtain the sanction of the Court to the
application to Parliament, which they considered it
necessary to make in the ensuing session, for powers
to enlarge the site of Smithfield• market, as proposed
in a recent recommendation made by the Markets
Improvement Committee.
Deputy Ileaarsort was anxious to understand to
what the report pledged the Court. Was the cost of
the alterations proposed to be 500,000/. or 800,0001?
And was he to understand that the improvements at
Holborn-bill formed a portion of the scheme ?

Mr. HALL said, that the amount for the enlarge-
merit of the market and the coastruction of a new
street leading directly from Holborn- bridge to Long-
lane, Smithfield (entirely out of the way of the pro-
posed market) was 500,0001.; the Holborn-bill im-
provement had formed a subject for an entirely sepa-
rate consideration.
Mr. ANDERTON considered that it was necessary,
before they gave their sanction to that report, that
they should know more about the subject, especially
as the recommendation involved the outlay of a large
sum of money. The proposition involved the expen
diture of at least half a million, and he thought that
rather than dispose of the matter summarily, by agree-
ing at once with the report, as proposed, that they
had better receive further information upon the sub-
ject, as the expenses of the notices had merely refer-
ence to advertisements, which would not amount to
more than 501.
In answer to a question put by Mr. H. TAYLOR,
Mr. T. H. HALL stated that, of course, several
expenses had been entered into necessarily by the
committee. They had had a model prepared,
which was not at present paid for, and other in-
formation had been sought for and obtained, for
which bills had been sent in by the parties em-
ployed.
Mr. HALL (the chairman of the Improvement
Committee), in order to correct a misconception
which appeared to have been entertained by some of
the members of the court, stated that the amount of
cost for the improvement would not be more than
from 340,0001. to 350,0001. Of course the cost would
be regulated by the question as to the raising of the
Holborn-bridge valley; but however that subject
might be treated, the alteration of the levels in the
instance of the new market would make no difference
in the accomplishment of the proposed works,
though it might affect the cost of the construction
of them.
Mr. JUPP understood that the entire cost would
be much more than stated.
Mr. HALL said that the Smithfield and H..lboen-
hill improvements would amount together to 800,000/
but that of Smithfield alone, and which be begged to
say embraced large alterations, amounted to
500,000/. only.
Mr. DE JERSEY thought that time for the con-i-
-deration of the proposition ought to be given. They
ought to have due thought upon the subject before
they carried out the resolution.
Mr. RICHARD TAYLOR, after expressing his sur-
pri-e that the representatives for the City, on the
Smithfield-market question, had not furnished any
statement to that court as to their views upon the
subject, wished to inquire whether the Government
had proposed any site for a new market,.or any plan
with reference thereto.
Mr. HALL replied, that no communication had
been received since the one named in the report of
the committee, nor had any answer been received
from the Home-office to the last letter sent by order
of that Court.
Mr. CLARK thought that the Court was bound to
consider this question as one of the utmost importance
to the citizens of London. What were they now
about to do ? Why, they were going to seek powers
to enable them, at a cost of from 500,000/. to
800,0001., to enlarge Smithfield-market. Such a
proposition he considered to be premature ; it
was not even decent. People out of doors had
given their opinion, that Smithfield ought
to be removed, and now they were actually proposing
that twelve acres more ground should be added to the
market. place, which the universal opinion declared to
be a nuisance. He was not one of the advocates for
the removal of Smithfield, as he considered that in a
mercantile point of view, its existence in its present
locality was exceedingly valuable to the citizens of
London, but he thought an enlargement of it would
only add to the evil connected with it, of which the
public very just complained. When Smithfield was
established, the population of the City numbered
about 200,000, now it amounted to 2,000 000; he
therefore thought that, instead of enlarging the pre-
sent market, they ought to do all they could to obtain
a second market in some other part of the town, leav
ing the present Smithfield where it is, and improving
its management as much as possible. He thought
they would be acting wisely if they refused to agree
with tlae committee in their report, as it might be the
case that if they waited sot& time longer the Govern-
ment riga& send an answer to them which might be
deemedTeriatfiyagatisfactory.
Mr. 11. L. TAYLOR (the chairman of the Markets
Improvement Committee) observed that he had heard
with considerable surprise that before he entered the
court an objection had been taken to the grant of a
sum " not exceeding " 5001. for the disbursements
and giving notices of an application to Parliament.
Some parties had insinuated that the architect ought
to do this work himself, without extra cost. He
(Mr. Taylor) knew that ro better officer than Mr.
Bunning was connected with the Corporation in any
capacity, and in respect of Smithfield-market he had
produced a plan which was worthy of universal admira-
tion. Ile (Mr. Taylor) would assert that Mr. Bun-
ning had done his duty upon all occasions since he had
been connected with the Corporation, both fearlessly,
honestly, and openly, and he (Mr Taylor) contended,
therefore, that it was bat simple justice to allow the
report as read to be acted upon forthwith. The com-
mittee, in order to secure a full investigstion of the
subject, had ordered a model of the proposed market
and new street to be prepared, and in co:lst-gm-tics an
artist had been engaged for that purpose. Other ex-
penses also had accrued, and it was but natural that
they (the committee) should seek for means to defray
the same, and that day they had asked the Court to
do so. They requested a sum "not exceeding 5001;"
if they were able to do with less they would do so,
for he could assure them that they might rely upon
it that the committee would not spend one shilling
more than they were obliged to do. He (Mr. Tay-

such a distance from St. Paul's ; the step would be
most injurious to all classes.—(Hear.) One fact he
(Mr. Tailor) had ascertained while in Paris, and that
that no person Preachof
was this, that not only did the butchers of Paris, but
far or
emmtuhvea 1
some of the inhabitants also had expressed their desire
that the markets should be brought back--these iden •
tical markets—so that they might take place within
the fortifications of Paris ; so that it was to be hoped,
with these facts before them, that the Legislature
would hesitate before they took any positive steps as
to the removal of Smithfield-market. —(Hear.)
Deputy HARRISON thought that Mr. Taylor was
out of order in going into such matters. The ques-
tion before them was simple. The report merely,
asked for leave to give notice of an application to Par-
liament for the improvement of Smithfield-market,
and tor authority to draw upon the Chamber for dis-
bursements. lie (Deputy Harrison) found that in
the report of the Markets Improvement Committee,
presented to the Court on the 13th day of June, 1850,
that the estimated amount of the whole cost of the
live cattle-market was 245,000/., the dead meat-mar-
ket and buildings 177,0001., and the slaughter-houses
45,0001.; making a total of 527,000/. It was right
that the public should not be misinformed in this re-
spect, as the matter was important.
Mr. GILFIN (as we understood) said, in reply to
Mr. Taylor's statements as to the Parisian markets,
that he was prepared to state that the statements
made by that gentleman were not altogether correct so
far as regards the City. He (Mr. Gilpin) had ob-
tained that knowledge by a recent personal inspection
of the markets in question, and by a conversation
with several of the inhabitants. He rose to order, and
wished to ask the Lord Mayor whether Mr. Taylor
was to be permitted to introduce new matter into the
debate ?
After some delay,
The LORD MAYOR decided that, in reply, no new
matter could be introduced.
Mr. TAYLOR said that he would bow to his Lord
ship's decision, but that he intended to take an early
opportunity of bringing the matter again under the
notice of the Court, with the view of substantiating
nis statements with regard t) the Parisian markets.
The report was then egreed to, only two hands
being held up in opposition to it.
JEWS' FREE SCHOOL.

A report with reference to this excellent institution
was brought up by Mr. T. White, recommending a
grant of one hundred guines in aid of the fund. In
July last Mr. B. S. Phillip, who is of the Jewish
persuasion, and one of the representatives of the
ward of Farringdon Within, presented a petition
from the governors and subscribers to the institution.
This was referred to the Coal, Corn, and Finance
Committee for their report, and yesterday the money
was voted by acclamation. It was stated that 1,100
children, of both sexes, reciived moral and religious
instruction in these schools, and for a series of years
they have been clothed, anonymously, by the late
lamented and respected Baroness de Rothschild.
The sum of 1051. was also granted to the Church
of England Sunday-school Institute.

THE SMALL DEBTS ACT.

Upon the motion of Mr. ANDERTON, it was re-
ferred to the Secondaries and City Courts Committt e,
to consider the expediency of applying to Parliament

[PRICE SD.

to extend the London (City) Small Debts Act, 1847
(10 and 11 Victoria), for the recovery of debts to the
amount of 501., thereby assimilating the same to the
present County Courts Act, and that they do report
theieon forthwith to the court.

BALL AT GUILDHALL F3R TIIE ASSISTANCE or THE

POLES.

A deputation from the Literary Association of the
Friends of Poland, consisting of Lord Dudley
Stuart, M.P., president ; Count Ladislas Zamoyski,
and Lieutenant Charles Szulcezwoski, appeared, with
the following petition :
" After a lapse of two years we again approach the
bar of your Honourable Court, for the purpose of ask-
ingyour permission that a ball, in aid of the funds of
the Polish Association, may be given in your Guild-
hall, and under your patronage.
" Since you last granted to us this great favour the
amount annually voted by Parliament for the relief
of Polish refugees resident in this country has, from
mo'ives of economy, been very much diminished,
whilst the funds at the disposal of the association have
been no less reduced, principally in consequence of
exertions made, with great perseverance, but, as we
believe, with little justice, to persuade the public that
all assistance afforded to the Poles must necessarily
be rendered at the expense of the distressed among
our own countrymen, possessing the greater claims to
sympathy.
" The association would be happy if they could re-
port that this diminution in the funds available for the
relief of the refugees had been accompanied by favor-
responding abatement in the misery prevalent amongst
them. Unfortunately, however, such is not the case.
For while, on the one hand, facilities for obtaining
employment increase as their residence in this country
is protracted ; yet, on the other band, with advancing
age they become liable to bodily infirmity and sick-
ness, and to those very circumstances, in tact, which
appeal most strongly to the sympathy f the benevo-
lent, and to alleviate which their succour can, with
the greatest propriety, be afforded.
" Earnestly, therefore, yet with the confidence
which fl iws from the recollection of former kindness,
we entreat your Honourable Court again to grant us
the means of relieving the necessities of men con-
demned to the penalties of poverty and exile, for no
other crime than their attachment to a cause which
all who have earned the reputation of statesmen,
whatever may be their creed in politics, have pro-
nounced to be founded on the plainest principles of
justice. " And Sour petttiontrs, &c.
Mr. Deputy Hour, who, in the absence of Deputy
Peacock, presented the petition, supported its pray
arid said that what had already been derie by the Cor-
poration for the untortunate sufferers reflected the
highest credit on the city of London. It was, he
added, a aource of very great gratification to these
who exerted themselves to promote the object of the
association, that no possible injury could he done by
the mode of relief proposed to the poor of this country,
by an interference with their superior claims to as
sistance and relief.—(Cheers.) He concluded by
moving that the prayer of the petition be complied
with.
Mr. R. TAYLOR with great pleasure seconded the
motion. Nothing, perhaps, redounded more to the
honour of the English people than their treatment of
strangers, and the French at the time of the revocation
of the Edict of Nantes had some experience of the
effect of our sympathy for those who had no longer
protection or eecurity at home.—(Llear.)-
The use of the Guildhall was unanimously voted.
Upon the motion of Mr. BLAKE, a petition from
the committee of the Thames Church Mission Society
for a grant to their funds, seas referred to the Coal,
Corn, undarinance Committee.
Mr. BARKLET presented a petition from the inha-
bitats of the ward of Tower, for an improvement in
Mark. lane.
Referred to the Improvement Committee.—Ad-
journed.

ENGLAND IN 1850.
1. When a man is strongly pre-occupied with the
crisis under which his country labours, every oppor-
tunity that arises is caught at to turn to the profit of
his compatriots the sights with which he is struck,
and the reflections with which these sights inspire
him. Called by circumstances of an entirely private
nature to revisit England for some time, atter an ab-
sence of twenty years, it was impossible for me not
to be dazzled by the immense progress made by Eng-
land during that lapse of time, not only in population,
in riches, industry, navigation, railroads, extent, edi-
fices, embellishments, the health of the capital, but
also, and more especially in charitable institutions
for the people, and in associations of real, religious,
conservative, and fraternal socialism, between classes
to prevent the explosions by the evaporation of the
causes which produce them, to stifle the murmurs
from below by incalculable benefits from above, and
to close the mouths of the people, not by the brutalities
of the police, but by the arm of public virtue. Very
far from feeling afflicted or humiliated at this fine
spectacle of the operation of so many really popular
works, which give to England at the present mo-
ment an incontestable pre eminence in this respect
over the rest of Europe, and over us, I rej Aced at it.
To asperse one's neighb-our is to lower oneselt.
The rivalries between netions are paltry and
shameful when they consist in denying or in hating
the good that is done by our neighbours. These
rivalries, on the contrary, are noble and fruitful when
they consist in acknowledging, iu glorifying, and in
imitating the good which is done everywhere : in•
steed of being jealousies, these rivalries becoine emu-
lation. What does it s gnify whether a thing be En
glish or French, provided it be a benefit ? Virtues
have no country, or rather they are of every country :
it is God who in-pires them, and humanity which
profits by them. Let us then learn for one how to
admire.
2. But I am told that these practical virtues of the
English to the poorer, the proletaire, the suffering
elisses, are nothing but the prudence of egotism !
Even if that were the case, we ought still to applaud,
tor an egotism so prudent and so provident, an egot-
ism which could do itself justice by so well imitating
virtue, an egotism which would corrupt the people
by charity and prosperity, such an egotism as that
would be the most profound and most admirable of
policies, it would be the Machiavelism of virtue. But
it is not given to egotism alone to transform itself
so well into an appearance of charity ; egotism re-
stricts itself, while charity diffuses itself; without
doubt there is prudence in it, but there is also
virtue ; without doubt, Old England, the veritable
patrician republic under her frontispiece of monarchy,
feels that the stones of her feodal edifice are be-
coming disjoined, cud might tumble under the blast
of the age if she did not bind them together every day
by the cement of her institutions in favour of her
people. That is good sense, but under that good
sense there is virtue ; and it is impossible to remain
in England for any length of time without discovering
it. The source of that public virtue is the religious
feeling with which that people is endowed more than
many others ; a divine feeling practical religious
liberty has developed at the present moment, under a
hundred forms, among them. Every one has a God,
where every one can recognize the light of reason,
and adore that God, and serve him with his brothers
in the sincerity and in the independence of his faith.
Yes, there is, if you will, at the same time prudence,
well understood egotism, and public virtue in the acts
of England, in order to prevent a social war. Let it
be whatever you lik. But would that it pleased God
that plebeian and proprietary France could also see
and comprehend its duty to the people ! Would that
it pleased God that she could take a lesson from that in-
telligent aristocracy ! Would that she could, once for all,
say to herself, " I perish, I tremble, I swoon in my panics.
I call at one time on the Monarchy, at another on the
Republic, at another on legitimacy, now on illegiti-
macy—then on the Empire, now on the Inquisition—
then on the police, now on the sabre, and then on
speech to save me, and no one will save me but my-
self. I will save myself by my own virtue."
3. I have seen England twice in my life ; the first
time in 1822. It was the period when the Holy Al-
liance, recently victorious and proud of its victories
over the spirit of conquest of Napoleon, struggled
against the newly born liberalism, and was only oc-
cupied in everywhere restoring ancient regimes and
ancient ideas. The Government of E,iglaud, held at
that time by the intelligent heirs of a great man (Mr.
Pitt), was n veritable c 'tam-fiction to the true astute
of the c: untry of liberty : it had taken up the eau,
of absolute sovereigns ageinet the nations; it made of
the free and proud citizen of England the supp It and
soldier of the Holy Alliance ; it blindly combatted
the revolution, with its spirit end institutions et home
and everywhere else. England, by no means corn•
fortable under such a Government, hardly recognised
hers If. She felt by instinct that she was made to
play the part of the seide of despotism, and of the
churches, in place of the part of champion of inde-
pendent nationalities, and of the regulated liberty of
thought which Mr. Pitt had conceived for her. Thus
her tribunes, her public papers, her popular meet-
ings, her very streets and public places, rung with
indignation against her Government and her aris-
tocracy. The ground trembled in London
under the steps of the multitudes who assembled at
the slightest appeal or opportunity ; the language of
the people breathed anger, the physiognomy hatred
of class to class ; hideous povertylhung up its tatters
before the doors of the most sumptuous quarters;
