Extracts from the DIRECTORS' REPORT for the year ending 81st December, 1838. The Directors have again to draw attention to a year of most remarkable progress. Accustomed as they have been for many years to report an accession of business larger than any other Company in Europe, they have on this occasion to state that the New Premium Income of the year 1868 amounts to the extraordinary sum of R87,748 16s. lid per annum-the corresponding amount for 1857 being X51,819 5s. 3d. This income has been derived entirely from the resources of the Prudential, and not from any amalgamation or transfer. In addition to the foregoing, the business of a small but most respectable Company has been added, amounting to zCI5,878 15s. 9d. per annum. The Premium Income at the close of the year amounts to £ 220,978 Os. 10d., after making allowance for all Policies lapsed or surrendered. The claims paid during the year amount to zC67,181 10s. 5d., raising the total disbursed under this head since the establish. ment of the Company tot480,986 18s. 3d. The Assurance Fund at the close of the year amounts to S241,301 12s. 4d., against iC172,959 Its. 6d. at the close of 1867, being an increase of XG8,311 17s. 10d.

The Directors draw the especial attention of their new con- nexions to the circumstance that 16 years since they inaugurated a plan of weekly audit of accounts. This system is still carried out by them with undiminished care and attention, and by its adoption they are enabled to control the operations of the Com- pany in the most efficient manner. During the year the Directors have given additional attention to t»:e development of the business in Scotland, and the results have been entirely satisfactory; upwards of 118,000 of the New Premium Income have been obtained from this quarter. Messrs GILLMAN, HORNE, and COLE retire from the Direction, and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election. The Auditors also retire, and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.

Exports: Wheat 680 qrs., Barley 183 qrs., Oats 2,300 qrs. English Wheat 5,290 qrs., foreign 15,671 qrs. The show of samples this morning from Kent and Essex was very limited; condition modera'e. Factors for sometime held at the previous rates, bnt eventually accepted a DECLINE of ONE SHILLING PER QR. to make sales. Foreign was in very limited request, and to sell freely required a similar reduction. Country Flour 22,830 sacks, foreign 2,519 sacks. The trade remained dull, though factors were offering Norfolks at Is. reduction. Foreign, both in sacks and barrels, were also rather in buyers' favour, with only a retail trade. Town sorts unaltered. Maize 7,186 qrs. This grain was only saleable by some concession to buyers. British Barley 1,492 qrs., foreign 2,312 qrs.

The market was well supplied with foreign beasts and sheep, for which there was a good inquiry at improving prices. From our own grazing districts the receipts of Beasts were only moderate, but the quality was tolerably good. The trade was very firm, and an advance of fully 2d. per 81b was established in prices. The best Scots and crosses realized 5s. 8d. per 81b. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received about 1,000 Scots and crosses; from other parts of England, about 600 various breeds; from Scotland, 108 Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, 85 head. Owing to the shortness of the supply, much steadiness was noticed in the demand for English sheep, and a considerable improvement took place in prices. The few Downs and half-breds in the wool on sale were in reqnest at 63. 4d. to 6s. 6d. per Sib. As regards c'ipped sheep, the advancement was more apparent, the top quotation varying from 5s. 6d. to 5s. 8d. per 81b. Lambs were purchased to a moderate extent at from 6s. to 7s. 8d per 81b. Calves were disposed of at previous quota- tions. Pigs were quiet on former terms. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY.—There were-at market 2,127 beasts, and 7,782 sbeep.

METROPOLITAN, THURSDAY.—The supply to-day was shorter than on this day week, and we had a ready sale at fully Monday s prices. The lamb trade was brisk, and a little dearer. Veal was also the turn dearer. Foreign supply was short, and consisted of 235 beasts, 750 sheep, and 86 calves.

MISCELLANEOUS. LONDON HOP, MONDAY.—The demand in our market is rather weaker for home-growths of ordinary grade, owing to the ois- position shown on the part of growers to realize their stocks; but fine saqiples continue to uphold late currency. Bavarians and Belgians are quoted at last week's prices, and meet with fair inquiry. New Americans still command the attention of buyers, and fully support present currency. Continental markets remain unaltered. New York advices to the 2nd inst. report a steady market.

The quality, too, is scarcely up to the average. Neverthele.-s, great inactivity prevails throughout the trade, and purchases are confined to immediate wants. Holders, however, are firm in demanding late rates, looking at the small- ness of the supplies to come forward. CURRENT PRICES OF ENGLISH WOOL. B. d. to 8. d.

BRADFORD WOOL AND WORSTED, SATURDAY.—There has been a more cheerful feeling in the Wool market during the past week, without any appreciable change in the demand. Spinners exercise great caution, and only buy to supply urgent neRas. There is, however, no change in quotations, and the fact that wool remains firm in price through such a protracted and rather severe depression is an indication of remarkable healthiness in the worsted trade. The best class of lus're wools, hoggs, and wethers, and also the finest deep-stapled demi-luslre wools, are very firmly held, though the coarser and lower wools are rather weak. The best classes of wool are scarce in the country, and are not likely to be so large in quantity, or so excellent in qua- lity, as they were after the last clip; an apprehension which has the result of inducing staplers to adhere with firmness to prices, The demand for worsted yarns continues s uggish. Export merchants operate very cautiously, and all classes of spinners find difficultv in obtaining orders. The reports as to Leipsh fair, now in, are not very favourable for the prospects of business in this market. The transactions are said to be uuder an ave- rage. Stocks, especially in super 30's and other weft yarns, have been latterly accumulating, and purchases can be generally made therefrom; this fact causes indifference on the part of buyers, and tends to depress prices. The spinner, however, cannot, with the present rates of wool, afford without a sacrifice to accept the lower prices; if he do so, the concession is extremely swnall in- deed. There is rather more business doing on home account, particularly in lustrJ yarns. There has been rather more activity in goods on home account. Having been enabled to re- move some of the light fabrics they are in a better position to operate for autumn, the demand for which has been so far un- usually small. There have been some foreign buyers in the market, and there has been a slight increase in business both for France and Germany. The demand for America and the East remains in a state of torpor; prices are generally well maintained. — -»

:'" THE REDNAL MURDER.
THE REDNAL MURDER. r- On Thursday a man named Bishop, charged with the murder of Thomas Peate, on Good Friday last, was brought up before Mr J. R. Kenyon, Colonel Lovett, and Captain Lloyd. The evidence, which occupied a consider- able time, was to the effect that the man Peate and pris- oner left the village of Felton together, and upon being overtaken, sometime afterwards, by a man named Brisco, the deceased was discovered lying on the road "smothered in blood," and the prisoner standing over him in a threat- ening attitude. Deceased was conveyed to his home, and after lingering some days, expired on the 10th inst. Medi- cal evidence proved that Peate died from the violent injuries inflicted by the prisoner, and he was committed to take his trial on the capital charge of wilful murder, at the en- suing Shropshire Assizes.
LEGISLATION WITH REGARD TO…
LEGISLATION WITH REGARD TO MINES. The Mines Regulation Bill* prepared and brought in by Mr Secretary Bruce and Mr Knatchbull-Hugessen, has been issued. It is designed to consolidate and amend the Acts relating to the regulation and inspection of mines in Great Britain. It enacts that no child under 12 years of age, and no woman above that age, shall be employed in mines, that no male person under 16 and above 12 shall be allowed to work underground more than twelve hours at a time; that the provisions of the Workshops Regulation Act, 1867, shall extend to women, young persons, and children above ground about mines; and that owners and agents shall keep registers of male young persons employed in mines. Provision is made also for the employment of males under 18 about the engines and penalties are im- posed for the employment of persons contrary to the Act. The payment of wages at public-houses is to be prohibited, and they are to be paid only in money, without deduction on account of expenses of supporting the roofs or sides of mines. The materials gotten by miners are to be accu- rately weighed, measured, or gauged, in the presence, if it should be so desired, of persons engaged by miners for that purpose. Single shafts are to be prohibited; and unless mines are divided in districts in such a manner that each separate district has at least one separate passage to it for the supply of air, not more than 100 persons are to be ai- lowee to be in them at one time. The 18th clause contains a number of important regulations to be observed in coal and ironstone mines. Amongst them may be mentioned those having reference to ventilation, the use of safety lamps, the accumulation of water, the arrangement of apparatus for signalling, the construction of the lowering gear and machinery, and the placing of a barometer and a thermometer above ground m a conspicuous position near the entiance of the mine, The 19th clause deals with the observance of the regulations by workmen and others.
Advertising
PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY.—From the direc- tors' report of this company for the past year, extracts of which are given in an advertisement, it appears, among other items of interest to insurers, that a large accession of busi- ness has taken place in connection with their office in 1868, the New Premium Income Fund being £ 87,748 16s. lid., as against £ 54,819 5s. 3d. in 18C7. The Assurance Fund has increased in the same time no less than £ 68,341 17s. 10d., and the directors state that the surplus of the fund is of the most encouraging character, and justifies the ex- pectation that at the division of profits at the end of 1871, the results will be exceedingly favourable. GOLDSMITH'S WORK.—The progress of fine art manu- facture in this branch of trade is strikingly exemplified in a little work published by J. W. Benson, of 25, Old Bond- street, and of the City Steam Factory, 58 and 60, Lud- gate-hill. It is enriched and embellished with designs (by Italian, French, and English artistes) of brooches, bracelets, earrings, and other articles, suitable for personal wear, or wedding, birthday, or other presents, with their prices. Mr Benson (who holds the appointment to H. R. H. the Prince of Wales) has also published a very interesting pamphlet on the Rise and Progress of Watch and Clock- making. These pamphlets are sent post free for two stamps each, and they cannot be too strongly recom- ded to those contemplating a purchase, especially to resi- dents in the country or abroad, who are thus enabled to select any article they may require, and have it forwarded with perfect safety.
|Parliamentary.
Parliamentary. FRIDAY. In the House of Lords, Earl de Grey and Ripon stated, in reply to a question by Earl Cowper, that he had received information that the cholera had broken out among a drove of pigs on their way to New York from Buffalo, but he was not aware whether the disease was prevalent in America generally. Lord Houghton suggested that a royal commission should be appointed with a view to the adoption of a scheme for the promotion of emigration to our colonies. Earl Granville said the Government would do all they legitimately could to relieve the distress existing in many parts of the country, but he thought it was undesirable that the national funds should be drawn upon to promote emigration. A similar opinion was expressed by Lord Overstone and Earl Grey, and the subject was allowed to drop without any practical result. The Governor-General of India Bill and the Salmon Fisheries (Ireland) Bill were read a third time, and the Colonial Prisoners' Removal Bill'a second time. In the House of Commons, in reply to Mr Rathbone, the President of the Poor law Board stated that the ex- periment of placing orphan pauper children with families of the working class was being made in several Unions. Mr Bright, replying to a question, stated that persons using metrical weights and measures were liable to have them seized and forfeited, and to be fined. Sir George Jenkinson elicited from Mr Gladstone the statement that as an inquiry into the mode of levying the poor-rate in England and Wales took place a few years ago, it was not the intention of the Government to assent now to the ap- gointment of a select committee on the subject. The remier further stated that it was not within the power of the Government to legislate at once upon the subject of local taxation. On the House going into committee upon the Irish Church Bill, Mr Disraeli moved the omission of the second clause, which provides for the dissolution of the legislative union between the Churches of England and Ireland. The proposition, attacking as it did one of the leading principles of the Bill-that of disestablishment was, of course, vigorously opposed by the Government, and on a division Mr Disraeli was defeated by a majority of 123. MONDAY. In the House of Lords, the Royal assent was given by commission to a number of Bills. Lord Redesdale again called attention to the Coronation Oath in connection with the Irish Church Bill, and wished to know if it was the intention of the Government to alter it in any shape. Earl Granville, in the course of his reply, said the Government, after due consideration, did not think it necessary to propose any alteration in the words of the oath. The Duke of Argyll laid on the table a Bill to amend the constitution of the India Council, and at con- siderable length explained the changes proposed to be made. After some observations by the Marquis of Salis- bury, Lord Halifax, and Lord Lawrence, the Bill was read a first time. Their Lordships adjourned at eight o'clock. In the House of Commons, the motion carried by Mr Sheridan on Friday, with reference to smoking carriages on the Metropolitan Railway, was, on the report being brought up, rescinded by 188 to 167 votes. In reply to Mr Monk, Mr Otway said that the Cretan insurgent chiefs who had been condemned to lengthened periods of imprisonment, would shortly be released by the Turkish Government. The House then went into committee on the Irish Church Bill. On the motion of Mr Gladstone, the clauses relating to the appointment of Commissioners were postponed. Upon clause 12, which vests the pro- perty of the Irish Church in the Commissioners on the 1st of January, 1871, Mr Hardy, on behalf of Mr Disraeli, who, he said, was unwell, moved an amendment to ex- tend the period until 1872. The amendment was opposed by Mr Gladstone, and on a division it was rejected by 301 to 194. The clause was afterwards carried as a sub- stantive motion. An amendment by Mr Hardy, on clause 13, that archbishops and bishops of the Irish Church should retain for life their titles and precedence, was ac- cepted. On clause 14, Mr Hardy moved to omit the pro- posed deduction for curates' salaries in estimating the amount of annuities to be paid to holders of benefices, and Sir R. Palmer urged that the clause as it stood vio- lated the principle of giving full compensation for vested interests. After a few words of explanation from Mr Gladstone, the clause was carried, on a division, by a majority of 98. Progress was then reported, and the House adjourned at 1.30. TUESDAY. In the House of Lords, the Marquis of Clanricarde moved the second reading of the Tenure (Ireland) Bill. Earl Granville objected to the measure on the ground that it was altogether insufficient to settle the Irish land question. The discussion was continued by Earl Grey, the Earl of Kimberley, Lord Westbury, Lord Cairns, and the Lord Chancellor, and ultimately the Bill was read a second time. Their Lordships adjourned shortly before eight o'clock. In the House of Commons, Mr Gladstone, in reply to Mr Collins, stated that he did not at present know of any disabilities which interfere with the status in England of Irish clergymen ordained after the disestablishment of their Church, but all the Acts of Parliament bearing on the subject would be carefully enquired into. Mr Bruce, in answer to a question, stated that the report that Sir Culling Eardley had been liberated at the instance of Mr Childers, was not only without foundation, but utterly scandalous. This statement was confirmed by Mr Hardy, by whom the order for Sir Culling's conditional release was issued. Mr Gregory called attention to the proposed site for the new Law Courts, and moved to the effect that Carey-street should be abandoned in favour of the Thames Embankment. A counter-motion was proposed by Sir Roundell Palmer. Mr Beresford Hope, Lord Bury, Lord John Manners, Mr W. Cowper, Mr Tite, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and other hon. members, took part in the discussion which ensued. A motion for the adjourn- ment of the debate was agreed to. WEDNESDAY. In the House of Commons, the second reading of the Bill to legalize marriage with a deceased wife's sister was moved by Mr T. Chambers. The hon. gentleman entered into an elaborate argument in support of the measure, and stated in the course of his speech that in no fewer than thirty-three divisions the House of Commons had con- demned the law on the subject as it at present exists. The motion was seconded by Captain F. Egerton, who asserted that among the working classes there was a strong feeling in favour of the proposed change. Mr Sclater-Booth moved, as an amendment, that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr Bright at great length supported the Bill, and maintained that the restriction which it seeks to remove has no foundation in nature, and can pretend to no sanction by revelation. The Solicitor- General, who opposed the Bill, said that it is the result of of a paid agitation, got up by a few rich men who have broken the law, and are anxious to repeal it. He asserted that the great majority of the women of England dis- approved of the Bill. Mr Chambers having replied, the House divided, when the second reading was carried by 243 against 144 votes. The result was hailed with general cheering, "especially from the Ladies' Gallery." The House adjourned at five o'clock. THURSDAY. In the House of Lords Lord Lyttelton moved the second reading of the Increase of the Episcopate Bill, briefly ex- plaining its provisions, which he said were substantially the same as in the measures which he had before intro- duced on the same subject. The Archbishop of Canter- bury said the bishops would prefer the plan proposed by Earl Russell—to create three new seeone in the neigh- bourhood of London, and other two by dividing the sees of Exeter and Lichfield. The Bill was opposed by the Earl of Carnarvon, the Duke of Somerset, the Bishop of Gloucester, Earl Stanhope, and others. On a division it was rejected by 43 against 20. Their lordships adjourned at half-past seven. In the House of Commons, Mr Bruce, in answer to Sir G. Jenkinson, defended his conduct with respect to the reprieves granted to the convicts Macdonald and Wilt- shire, who were sentenced to death for murder. The former was respited on the recommendation of the judge' and the latter in consequence of a memorial sent in by the jury. The House then went into committee on the Irish Church Bill. A long discussion took place on Clause 12, which relates to compensation to dignitaries, holders of benefices, and curates. Mr Gladstone's definition of the difference between permanent and temporary curates was strongly objected to by Sir Roundell Palmer; but an amendment proposed on the subject by the hon. and learned gentleman was negatived by 221 to 128. After considerable discussion, it was agreed that that the gratuity to temporary curates should be 225 for each year's service, to be made up to 2200 in cases under eight years' service, but in no case to exceed C800. Several amendments were proposed on clause 15, which refers to the compensation of minor and lay officials, but, ultimately, the clause was agreed to, as were also clauses 16 and 17. Clause 18 was under consideration when progress was re- ported, and the House adjourned at 1.28.
