AMERICAN NEWS

EXPRESS FROM LIVERPOOL.
FOURTEEN DAYS LATER FROM AMERICA.
LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY MORNING.

The Caledonia, mail steam-ship, commanded by
Captain LOTT, was off our port at an early hour yester-
Klay afternoon, but there was not sufficient water on
-the Bar for her to reach the Mersey before a
)ate hour at night ; she brought her Majesty's
mails from Boston and Halifax, having sailed from the
former on the 16th, and from the latter on the evening
of the 18th instant, performing the voyage in ten
days. Her passengers, sixty in number, speak
in the highest terms of Captain Lorr's sea-
manship and gentlemanly demeanour, and also
of his boat's capabilities. Although our files extend over
period of fourteen days, they contain no news of im-
-portance. It had been rumoured in the United States
that some unforeseen difficulties had arisen in the matter
*of the Boundary Question, which would tend to procras-
timte the settlement of that affair. The PRESIDENT'S
tate veto has caused considerable vexation both in
Congress, and out of its doors ; all duties have been
paid under protest since the 30th of June, as the Secre-
tary of State formally declared it his opinion that no
duties could be legally collected without a new Act was
passed ; should the Courts support by their decisions,
that opinion the money will have to be returned with
interest.

There was a moderate amount of business done in
bills for the packet at 7 to 71 for sterling bills on Eng-
land, and at sf. 371 c. to sf. 60c. on France.
Cotton had been in poor request for some time pre-
vious to the steamer's sailing,- and prices had a ten-
dency downwards. Flour on a light supply was in mo-
derate demand at steady rates.
The accounts from Buenos Ayres state !the determi-
nation of that Government to take Monte Video, if pos-
sible; but the inhabitants of the latter were making
every exertion to resist an attack.

From Canada we learn that Sir C. BEGOT and his
Lady were in excellent health, and that affairs were pro-
ceeding in a satisfactory manner under his government.
A motion in Senate regarding the relations between
Mexico and the United States afforded an opportunity
for some members to abuse Great Britain for the course
which she is adopting in regard to the former country.

LIFE ASSURANCES.

The additions made to the life policies granted by this Cor-
poration for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per sent. on
the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent„ or two per cent.
per annum on the BUMS assured—a result, it is believed, more
favourable than any other Company (mutual or proprietary)
has hitherto accomplished, when the low rates of premium
charged by this Company are taken into consideration.
The next division of life profits will take place in December,
1846, being an interval of five fears, and persons entering be-
fore the Ist of August next will enjoy one year's additional
rating, and rank at next division of profits for five complete
years.
To facilitate loan transactions a reduced scale of rates with-
out profit has been adopted. The rates and other particulars
may be ascertained at the above offices, or at any of the Com-
pany's Branch Establishments throughout the kingdom.

LAW COURTS (IRELAND).
_, _ _

_ .
Mr. SHEIL moved for copies of all letters Or written com-
munications made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the
Chief Judges and Puisne Judges of the Courts at Queen's
Bench and Common Pleas, and Chief Barons and Fuisne
Barons of the Court of Each« quer, in Ireland, in relation to
the Common Law Courts (Ireland) Bill, or the Report ot.the
Cominis4ioncrs on which the said Bill purports to be founded.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that he
had already stated his intention of postponing the Bill for re-
gulating the Law Courts in Ireland until next session. lie
Objected to producing the correspondence moved for, as it
would be setting a precedent which might be inconvenient to
the public service. lie was himself responsible for the Bill, and
therefore he did not think he was called upon to produce the
correspondence.
Mr. F. FRENCH thought the Bill would inflict great indi-
vidual hardship. He hoped that it would be altered next year.
Mr. SHEIL could not press the motion. He would ask if
both the Judees, and the Attorney-General of Ireland, had not
objected to the abolition of patent offices without compensation.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had endea-
'Aired to frame the Bill so as to satisfy the demands of public,
and at the same time not to disregard vested, interests.
The motion was then put, and negatived without a division.
The Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House
adjourned at One o'Clock.

the plan adopted by this Society; viz. joined to a secure

affords succour to the Assured himself (proportioned to pre-

tised at the election for the aforessid towns, and whether such

Right Hon. Baronet deserved credit for any attempt he had
made to alleviate the distress of the people.
Mr. MILES replied—He and those who sat around him
had as much feeling for the distress of the people, as the Hon.
and Learned Member for Wolverhampton, and those who sat
around him. He did not stand up for prohibition ;he was for
protection, and only a protection fur live cattle equivalent to
that on dead meat. He should be ready at a future period to
state the exast nature of the measure he meant to propose
but he trusted that the House would now sanction the principle
of giving a due protection to the British farmer.

DIVISION OF PROFITS AMONG THE ASSURED.
This Joint Stock Company, established by Act of Parlia-
ment, without limited responsibility, affords the most perfect
security in an ample paid-up Capital, and in the great success
which has attended it, since its commencement in 1834.
In 1641, the Company declared an addition to the Share-
tockholders of one-half of their Stock, and also added 2./. per
Cent. per Annum, from the dates of their policies to those par-
ties who had insured with Profits.
The Premiums nevertheless are on the most moderate scale,
and only a moiety need be raid for the first five years, where the
Insurance is for life.
'1 he amount of;bouus added to policies since the commence-
ment of the Society in March 1834, to the 31st December
1840, is as follows :--

ARRIVAL OF ROYAL ANI) IMPERIAL VISITORS.---
During the forthcoming season we are happy to hear on all
sides, of the intended trips to England of many noble and
distinguished foreigners bent upon amusement. In the first
days of June will arrive their Royal Highnesses the Prince de
Joinville and the Duke d'Aumale. The former, a Very hand-
some young man, and a gay sailor, has lately circumnavigated
the world. From Otaheite, he brought home, as a lawful
trophy and a page de souvenir, the whole and com-
plete costume of a Princess of that sunny clime ;
which she gave him to present to• his sister the
Princess Clementine, Our readers already know that it con-
sisted of a necklace. The Duke d'Aumale is also young, gay
and .pirituei. He is as good a soldier as his brother is a sailor,
and at the head of his regiment he won his spurs in Algeria
against Abd-el-Kader, by the most gallant and chivalric feats of
valour. The Duke d'Aumale, more fortunate than some of his
brothers, is besides a bon parti, having inherited a lion's
share of the immense estates of the last of the Cowles,
t spite of the large sums absorbed in another quarter,
which are now the subject of litigious and scandalous ex-
pose. Their Majesties the King and Queen of Belgium,
the latter the si•t.cr of the young Princes, are coming over to
England to meet their Royal relatives at her Majesty's Court.
Last, but not least, we have to add the arrival of another
Prinel, no less confidently announced. We allude to his Im-
perial Highness the Archduke of Austria, who fought with our
tars at the taking cf Acre, and in the other actions which re-
cently took place on the Egyptian and Syrian shores. He is
expected at the end of June, and we are happy to think that
he will hare the opportunity of personally witnessing our
friendly feelings towards our old and much-valued ally, Austria.
It is expected that his Excellency Prince Paul Esterhazy, whose
return has been delayed by an unexpectedly slow convalescence,
will reach England about the same period.

locked up in a railway carriage that morning, and he
