DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a ldrge sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from, inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.

411A11LBOROUGH-STREET.

The Rev. Charles Turner, of No. 14, Great Maryle-
bone-street, a very tall person, was charged with having
assaulted his wife Sophia.
The complainant, a mild, ladylike woman, said on the
22d instant her husband struck her several times over
the face, head, and shoulders, in the presence of the
landlord.
Mr. Brscatan asked the defendant what defence he
had to offer?—The rev. gentlecean replied, it was all a
mistake. He had never beaten his wife. Ho was only
playing with her. He only patted her about with his
hands in a playful way, and he was quite astonished at
the charge brought against him.
Mrs. Turner said the landlord was present at the
time, and could bear witness of the violence she had
sustained.

The rev. gentleman said he must speak out plainly.
The landlord had told a pqrcel of lies when at Maryle-
bone•court, and his evidence ought not to be received.
Mr. BINGHAM said, in the absence of rebutting evi-
dence he must take the assault as proved, and call on
the defendant to put in bail to keep the peace for three
months.

The rev. gentleman said he could not find bail, and
therefore he must go to prison.
As he passed his wife the rev. gentleman held out his
hand and shoik hands with her. He was then remored
to the lock-up cell.

MR. SHERIFF NICOLL'S FETE CHAMPETRE.

A most elegant dejeliner a la fourchetie:was given yes-
terday by Mr. Sheriff Nicoll, at his residence, Oldfields,
Acton Vale, Middlesex. The beautiful pleasure-ground s
were honoured by the presence of nearly 600 guests, in-
cluding the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, the Lady
Mayoress, many of the nobility and Members of Parlia-
ment, the Court of Aldermen, Common Council, and
their ladies. Messrs. Ring and Brymer supplied the re-
freshments, and with their usual efficiency responded to
the desire of the worthy sheriff to sustain the ancient
good character of civic hospitality; they had also the
good fortune to be assisted with some valuable sugges-
tions from the renowned chef M. Soyer.
The amusements were of a varied and most pleasing
eharaot?r. Mdlle. Emile Vanderneersch exhibited the
surprising instinct of her little songsters of the grove.
The Alpine singers p'eased many; and atni.lst a thousand
other novelties, a post-office was established, the new
arrangements of which, strange to say, gave universal
satisfaction.
Tho scene was enlivened by some excellent music from
(he band of the Coldstream Guards, presided ever by
Mr. Godfrey. Elgington's marquees were, like the
house and gardens, brilliantly illuminated in the evening;
and, with the assistance of 011ivier's quadrille band,
dancing was kept up till a lute hour. Their Excellencies
the Nepaulese Princes were expected, but it was an-
nounced in the course of the day that they could not at-
tend in consequence of their preparing to depart.

Lord J. RUS:"ELL said he would now s!ate, in com-
pliance with the notice which he hod given, v bat,
course he intended to take with reference to the Iris:i
Franchise Bill. The House of Lt:rds had made
several amendeuent3 to the Bill, two of which were
of considerable importance. One was the alteration of
the qualification giving a vote for a county from 8/. to
151, and the second rendered it tn,t compulsory tor p-r-
-sons qualified to vo,e to reosrer their names. Now,
with resp.ct to the first amendment, be proposed that

STAMPING OF PERIODICALS.

In rcp.y to Mr. SCHULEFIELD,
Mr. CORNEIV ALL LE A Is. wt o wag indistinctly
heard, was underLt.od to say that the Board of Sraulv•
considered that Mr. Dicken's Household Aarrative
of current events came under th" d. signatron of a news •
paper, and therefore required a stamp. Messrs. Bradley
and Evans, the printers. bad offered to send a special
case on the subject to the Court of Exchequer, and the
board had ugrted to th, irprovsition.

CEYLON.
Mr. BAILLIE called the attention of the House to
the report of the Ceylon Committee.
The Committee had come to the extraordinary resolu-
tion of nut reporting to the House either their opinion
up,da the matter referred to them or the evidence
which they bad taken, but that they would recommend
the evidence to the serious attention of the Government;
that was to say, the Committee was appointed to
enquire into the conduct of tte Government, and they
recommend the evidence to their serious consideration.
He need not say that he utterly repudiated hav-
ing anything whatever to kay to this report,
which he believed to be discreditable to the Committee,
and not very re•pecttul to the House. The Committee
recommended a Commission to be sent out to Ceylon.
which the House had previously decided should not be,
in the event of the Government not taking some
step, such as recalling the present Governor
to improve the government of the colony. It
was too late, however, at this period of the
session to go fully into the matter, and he
therefore gave notice that early next session he should
move that the evidence be printed.

and Anhalt Dessau (with the hereditary Prince), the

burg with the hereditary Duke, the Grand Duke of

The King of PRUSSIA. addressed the assembled

sive propositions for the establishment of the union.
A telegraphic message, dated Berlin, 9th, states that

of Austria " to arrogate to herself presidential rights."
The protest (says the telegraphic dispatch) is dated
the 4th of May. Prussia declares that the former
presidential attributes of Austria are de jure abolished
since the suppression of the Germanic Diet, and that
the convocation at Frankfort of the members of the
Confederation, with the threat to exclude from the
Confederation those states that do not send represen-
tatives, cannot be admitted, and that the plenipoten-
tiiries assembled at Frankfort have no right to deli-
berate in the name of the Confederation.

General BuLow left Berlin on the 7th for Copen-
hagen with the following ultimatum, which he is to
present to the Danish Cabinet :
" 1. There shall be peace and amity between the
States of Denmark and Prussia (in the name of Ger-
many)._

•` 2. The arrangement of the Schleswig Union ques-
tion shall be left to be determined between the King of
Denmark and Schleswig in such manrer as the f)rmer
may consider beneficial and just for the interests of all
parties. _

" 3. Germany shall ret erve her rights in regard to Hol-
stein and Laucnberg, without permitting these rights to
be prejudiced or affected by any arrangements resulting
from the foregoing clause.
" 4. The King of Denmark shall be authorised to ap-
point a St tdtholderate f,r Holstein for the time being,
that is so long tri the question is not definitively settled,
and the whole has not resume I iti normal state."

The prisoner here asked if he could speak to his wife,
as he had something very important to communicate
to her.

Mr. HALL said that he bad had already two opporta.

with ttealint,r 16 yards of silk, value 21. 125., the property
of Mr. William Shea, silk-mercer, No. 264, Regent -
street.

The prosecutor stated that on Saturday afternoon the
prisoner came into his shop and requested to see some
silks. A variety were placed before her, and after ex-
amining the lot, she declined to purchase on the ground
that none would suit her. She then lett the counter, and
on her way to the door she purchased two reels of
cotton, for which sho paid fourpence. She then
left the shop. Witness having observed some-
thing in her manner which excited his suspicions,
followed her, and brought her back to the shop, and
taxed her with robbing him; whereupon she pulled
from her pocket the sixteen yards of silk produce 1,
which he identified as his property. Ho accordingly
sent for a constable and gave her in charge. On being
searched at the station other property, consisting of
pocket-handkerchiefs, gloves, and pieces of taps, which
ate, no doubt, had stolen from other shops, was found
upon her.
The prisoner, who did not attempt to deny the charge,
was committed for trial.
