The Derby betting, as far as it related to the two principal
favourites, was more encouraging to their respective parties
than has been observable for some days past : —7 to 1 was taken
to a trifle about Attila, and 20 to 1 to 1001. about Chatham,
the subsequent offers being in unison with those prices. Re-
peated attempts were made to get on about Wiseacre,
Ballinkeele'
and Auckland, and in each case without suc-
cess, until 6 o'clock, when a noble lord laid 33 to 1,
to 2001. agst the last of the three, who finished at 30
to I, taken; nothing was done abous-the other two, but
they may be quoted at an improvement on Monday's prices.
The Dirce colt aria Defier opened and finished as be-
fore. A few out-ciders were backed, but only Canadian and
Palinurus with any spirit.

wills destitute of any just foundation, the more is then
•eason to believe that it is erroneous and unjust ; be
awe the further back vfie trace mankind, the more igno.
rant, superstitious, and barbarous. we find them. It
other cases, the authority of the Roman Church anti
the Greek Church are openly derided by the lion.
• Baronet and his friends, and it is for them almost a. stir-
icient reason to repudiate an opinion or a practice, that
is sanctioned by the Pope or the Greek Patriarch.
But whenever a doctrine of any Church, or any book,
mbserves the prejudices or the power of .a party, that
loctrine is immediately endowed with unbounded au-
hority : whenever it militates against those prejudices,
rr is inimical to that power, it is openly flouted, or cast
aside with silent contempt. Another arguinent which has been brought against
Lord F. EGERTON'S proposition is, that it is contrary to
the statute of 25th of Henry VIII., cap. 22, which itself,
however, has no higher authority than-the Canon Law
of the Roman and Greek Churches, It recites that law,
and then forbids, amongst other things, a brother to
marry a brother's wife, or a man to marry his wife's sister.
Now, it is singular enough, that this law was passed, we
have always- understood, mainly to gratify the lust of
that king. At that period he had become tired, says the
historian " of the person of the Queen," who had been his
brother's wife, and in order to promote his object of get dug
rid of CATHERINE, he and his subservient Parliament,
passed a law, which, in the name of morality and virtue,
should tend to set him free from his unpleasant restraints,
tnd impose for his lust a series of unnecessary restraints
on all the people in future time. But the law, as we Intro
said, rests altogether on his will and on the authority of
the Church, which, when not expressly based on scrip-
ture,is to he rejected the more nacient is its source.
The New Testament establishes no such prohibition as
that which is on the Statute-book. The Old Testament
expressly authorises, in certain circumstances, a man to
raise up seed to hiS brother, and warrants, rather than
otherwise, the matrimonial connection now in dispute.
But in all antiquity the situation and posi-
tion of women were not such as to recom-
mend the precepts borrowed from that time,
on the rights concerning them then established worthy
of our bl;nd acceptance. We have neither space nor
time to trace their condition, whether in ancient Judea.,

NNUITIES.-=-In the AUSTRALASIAN CO-

LONI AL and GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE
and ANNUITY COMPANY, Annuitants participate in the
Profits of the Company, and receive a rate of ANNUITY
much more favourable than can be granted by any Company
making its investments wholly in England. The Company is
enabled securely to grant these favourable terms from the ad-
vantages it possesses of investing a portion of its funds at a high
rate of Interest

in ancient Greece, or in ancient Rome, through the va-
rious gradations of slavery, concubinage, and pur-
chase, in order to show that the Canon law, derived
partly from the Roman law and partly from the customs
of the barbarians who overturned the Roman empire.
ought not, except it be fully confirmed by our own reason
and experience, to he of any authority whatever. The
position of women in society has been continually im-
proved as civilization advanced ; and it- is for us to
improve it still more ,by doing away with what yet
remains in it of their ancient condition of slavery, not to
regulate it by the remains of a code which had its origin
in a very rude and barbarous state of society.
We can see nothing .contrary to the order of nature
in that proceeding to which Lord F. EGERTON' seeks to
give the sanction of law. We only say, and we believe,
he says no more than that such marriages ought not to be
prohibited. Men may, on that point, be left to their
own discretion. The abolition of the prohibition is
asked for by influential individuals who are aggrieved by-
the restriction, and by some very powerful classes. To
tell us that it comes within the prohibited degrees—
those degrees having been settled, as Sir R. "Nous says
more than fifteen centuries ago, about the time the Lom-
bards were drinking blood out of skulls, and when murder,
to obtain a throne, was a common occurrence, is tanta-
mount to telling us that we ought to navigate the ocean

which it deserves, and at once make the Marriage law,
from being vague, uncertain, and superstitious, definite,
precise, and reasonable. Other topics, we are aware,
more immediately interest the public than this; at the
same time this is as important a subject for regulation as
can well demand the attention of the legislature.

The most advantageous Life Policy is that which entitles an
Assured to participate in the whole of the mutual profits with-
out responsibility, and also affords him the security of a pro-
prietary Company. It forms a peculiar feature in the practice
of the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Life Company, founded
upon their Deed of Constitution, to grant sueh policies.
To secure a definite sum at the least possible expense, and
to be enabled to discontinue an assurance at a smaller sacrifice
than by any other means, the assured may adopt the half pre-
mium credit system, and retain:one-half of the first SevenYears'
Premiums, according to the following scale :

Whole World Policies are granted, entitling the parties to go
to, and reside in, any part of the World, upon payment of a
determinate extra premium.
The Manager and Agents forward to applicants Forms of
Proposals, and every requisite information, free of expense.

eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic
balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated

my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself, by
Using your truly valuable Eye-Snuff. Sir, I am now in my
93d year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country
26 years. Whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
I cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight,
therefore unable to follow my business. I do most sincerely
believe I should have remained in darkness and pain but for
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention. I
purchased a 2a. 4d. canister of your agent, Mr. Wilcockson, to-
bacconist, who knows the above to be facts, and will bear wit-
ness to my extraordinary recovery of that most inestimable
blessing of our life-7" Perfect Sight"—l declare has proceeded

ing, you may make what sue you please of this letter, Mr. Wil-
cockson and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer the
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and is sell
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,
