EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vitt., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office ara —Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion 7'remium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so 4reat, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. _ It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap droached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and, the Insurer is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will he proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to time, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly per cent. of the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Pronerty on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause. Prospectuses, and every information may be obtained, on applica tion at the Office, or to any of its Agents. t National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society. • Equitable Fire, t• Both Offices.

The following is extracted fror u the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in Ent land. and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 280/.—m eking' together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the exi meted mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1849, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve mouths preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,91;31.25. 641.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0487., upon which 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums. Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,972/. 125.. 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,732/. 1 ls. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual prertVums were 7411. ls., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,991/. 15s. 11d. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent. of 17,7002., but 1,183/. 11x. 10d. only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that. within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in Frant:e , Monsieur de I'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distil - wished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assure ru :e matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Parig, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Pal 1; ds, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months efl'e cted a con siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. After various resolutions, approving of the Report, a aii returning thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of t establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its prt 'sent results and future prospects.

WAKEFIELD, APRIL 25.—The arrivals of wheat, barley, and beans are good this week; the wheat trade rules dull at last week's prices, and the demand is rather inactive than other wise, as our millers evince but little disposition to go into stock. Fine barley supports late rates; oats, shelling, and beans rather lower. Old. New. WHEAT, per qr. 601bs per bushel s. R. S. s.

NEWBURY, APRIL 24.—Our supply of wheat, to-day is only moderate, but fully sufficient to meet the require ments of the home trade, to which the demand is almost entirely confined. Sales proceed slowly, and late rates were barely supported. Barley, short supply, and many of our maltsters having finished, the demand was mostly for seed and grinding qualities, and we can note no im provement from last week. Beans, peas, and oats, short supply, and in fair request at full rates. In seeds, a fair demand at full rates. LIVERPOOL, APRIL 25.—At this day's market there was only a small attendance of the town and country trade, who bought very sparingly of wheat at Tuesday's prices. Flour was much pressed on the market, and where sales were made a reduction of 6d per sack and barrel was generally submitted to. Fine mealing oats were held for Fd per 451bs advance, which in some mea sure checked the demand; but oatmeal was in brisk re quest at an improvement of 31 per load. Barley, beans, and peas were without material alteration in value. Indian corn met with little inquiry, and must be noted fully Gd per quarter lower. EXETER.

BANGOR, APRIL 25.—Wheat, without alteration, beat qualities, 40s to 425; middling and inferior, 37s to 40s; barley and oats wero not so plentiful as of late, which caused a slight advance in price. The former sold at 21s to 235; the latter at 15s to 17s; oatmeal was the turn in favour of the seller.

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES WOOL TRADE.—LONDON, THURSDAY.—The wool mar ket has been steady, but Lot at all active. The imports within the last few days have only comprised a few bales from the Cape of Good Hope. ENGLISH WOOL, APRIL 25.—There continues to be rather more inquiry for combing wools to supply the current wants of the manufacturers, and prices are firm and stationary at last week's rates. LIVERPOOL WOOL, APRIL 24 . —Business in wool is very quiet, though there has, perhaps, been a shade more done in consequence of larger arrivals. No change in price. Imports during the past week are:-2,280 Peru vian sheep's and alpaca, 535 OportO and Lisbon, 175 Buenos Ayres, 213 East India, 692 Mediterranean, 833 Turkey. TRADE OF LEEDS.—There was very little business done at the Cloth Halls on Saturday, but on Tuesday there was a lair average quantity cf fine and middle qualities sold; but low goods have been very dull of sale. Prices are without any alteration. The buyers who visit the market being, as usual, engaged at home during the Easter holidays, have not been down, and business in' consequence has been dull in the warehouses since this day week. BRADFORD, APRIL 24.—Wool—There is no improve ment in the choice of wools in the market, the arrivals during the week being very limited. ,The indifferent supply has given a tone of confidence to tho holders, who are firm at recent prices, and in some instance s an ad vance of 5s per pack is sought. The position of the spin ners is not in any way improved, so as to enable them to pay even old prices. Yarns—This has been a w ee k of very diminished production, for the spinners have availed themselves of the opportunity of making re p g ,i rs , which has tended to the stoppage of their works.- There is, however, a greater disposition to bay yarns dan has been manifest for some months; and contracts for-"dis tant delivery would be made by the manufacturers, 'but rejected by the spinners, at a small advance; tor such•, is the ruinous price, there must be either a consideraiiis ad vance or much unemployed machinery. As it is evident no relief can be had from wool, the conflict must be be tween spinner and consumer. Pieces—There is nothing calling for comment since our last. The nanufacturers are not placed in a very enviable position, far during the dull months usual after Christmas, goods lave fallen to a price below what they can be produced for. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, APRIL 24.—Priori continue to decline, both in piece goods and yarns, aid our market has given way to-day fully to the extent of the decline in cotton at Liverpool, consequent on the unfavourable news by the Franklin and Canada steam-skips, from the New York cotton markets. The decline ups!' last week's prices may be quoted at lid to 31 per pieca in cloth, and at id per lb in yarn; and it has been diffitult to obtain much business even at these concessions. Th 3 home trade havo been making a good deal of inquiry, but the want of confidence and general instability operates prejudi cially to this branch of our trade, as well as to the shipping interest. A curtailment of production continues to be spoken of as a means of enabling iroducers to sustain prices at something like an equivalent rate with the quotations of the raw material; but as with many of the smaller manufacturers a stoppage of the moving power might involve an insurmountable difficulty in start ing - again, an extensive unanimity on th s point can scarcely be looked for. The necessities of :hese parties cause great irregularities in the market, and the reduction in the rates of cotton, from this amongst other causes, makes the business doing vary unremunerative. For several months past we have indicated the probability of a decline in the cotton market as a consequence of les sened consumption, and increased estimates of crop, but notwithstading the decrease of price which has already taken place, it is still selling at nearly one-half above the rates of the early part of 1849, when fair uplands was only 4id per lb, and it may be questioned if we have seen the minimum of the present season.

GROSS S U PERSTITION.At the Bristol Police-court on Saturday, George Padfield, a notorious " conjuror" and " fortune-teller," was charged by two well-dressed women, who gave their names Mary Bryant and Ann 'Listings, with obtaining money from them under false pretences. Padfield lives in Gravel•street, one of the most disreputable localities in the city, and the complainants, who, from their appear ance and address, certainly ought to have known better, stated that they went to his house and asked to have their fortunes told. The " wise man" desired one of them to take a chair, and the other another, and place themselves in cer tain positions, which they did. He then took a teacup con taining same grounds, and desired Mary Bryant to " cast" them. Having complied with his request, he carefully inspected the grounds, and told her she would have much trouble ; but perhaps seeing a look of some disappointment in the face of the lady, he inspected them a second time, and said she would be very prosperous. The ladies not liking this "double" kind of prophesying, took up the money which they had deposited on the table as the " conjuror's fee," when he seized one of them by the throat, and made use of very offensive language and threats to them. They gave him some money to pacify him, and made their way to the door, but he followed them into the street abusing them, and a policeman coming by at the time, he was given into custody. In the confusion Ann Hastings said she lost a brooch, value 41., but she could not say the prisoner had taken it. Padfield was sent to gaol for three months as a rogue and vagabond.

During the past week, the whole of the arrangements in connexion with this great gathering of the Archers of the United Kingdom, have been brought to a conclu sion. Nearly two years have elapsed since the initiative was taken by a few spirited inhabitants in Leamington to secure to this town a meeting which, in all proba bility, will be unparalleled in the annals of archery. Since that period, and more particularly within the last few months, the most untiring exertions have been used by the gentlemen alluded to, to advance so attractive an assemblage; and wo have now much pleasure in notifying that the full programme of the approaching meeting is in course of publication. " Stout Arm, Strong Bow, and Steady Eye, Union, True Heart, and Ccurtosie, such is the motto adopted by the National Society, and which heads the circular of the General Committee of Management of 1851. In the list of patrons, which at once stamps the high character cf the meeting, there are the names of upwards of one hundred of the nobility and gentry of Warwickshire, including the High Sheriff of the county, his Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant of Ire land, the Earl of Aylesford, the Earl and Countess of Bradford, the Earl of Denbigh, the Earl of Buchan, Earl Somers, the Countess of Farnham, Lord and Lady Leigh, Viscount and Viscountess Lif ford, Viscount Newport, Lord and Lady Somer ville, Jeord and Lady Guernsey, Lady Emily Harding, Lady Charlotte Palmer, Lady Elizabeth Boult bee, the Hon. Charles and Mrs. Bertie Percy, the Hen. Charles Lennox Butler, Sir William and Lady Hartopp, Lady Mordaunt, Lady Cave Brown Cave, Lady Duberly, Sir Gray Skipwith, Bart., Sir Robert Throckmorton, Bart., Sir Theophilus Biddulph, Bart., Sir Robert Peel, Bart., M.P., and Sir Cbarles Douglas, M.P. Our space will not permit us to enumerate the whole of the names which will be found in the effieial announcement, and which comprise many of the leading members of the two societies of Warwickshire, namely the Woodmen of Arden and the Wellesbourno Archers. In addition to these, the meeting will have the support of the Beverley Archers, Broughton Archers, Cheetham Hill Archers, Cheshire Bowmen, County of Dublin Toxopholites, Dove Grove Archers, Glasgow Archers, Glasgow St. Mougo Archers, Heath Common Archers, Hull Archers, John O'Gaunt's Bowmen, Irving Toxo pholites, Irwell Archers, Meath Archers, Neville's Cross Archers; New College, Oxford; Queen's Park, Brighton ; Queen's Royal St. Leonard's Archers, Edinbro' Salisbury Archers, Royal Sherwood Archers, Royal Scotch Body Guard, Fraternity of St. George, South Saxon Archers, St. John's (Oxford) Archers, Thirsk Bowmen, Royal Toxopholite Society, West Berks Archers, West Norfolk Archers, West Essex Archers, Wexford Archers, Worcestershire Archers, and the York Archer:. The site of the meeting will bo the Cricket Ground of Messrs. Parr and Wisdea, which is admirably adapted for a such a purpose, its level surface affording facilities for pitching forty targets, in rows of twenty on each side of the ground, with the most perfect uniformity— a circumstance which will render the scene one of a very animated and imposing description; and, we venture to assert, that its enjoyments will be materially enhanced by the performances of the celebrated German Band, the use of which has been kindly granted for the occasion by the Jephson Gardens' Committee. On the ground there will be pavilions and marquees for visitors, and the archers, both ladies and gentlemen; one also in which luncheon will be provided each day, and another well stocked with every article c, nnected with archery, from which either visitor or competitor can supply themselves in case of accident or omission. The ladies' targets will be placed nearest to the tents, and from the induce ment held out in the schedule of prizes, and the high es timation in which the noble sport of archery is held in Warwickshire, we anticipate a more than usually large assemblage of ladies from all parts of the county; for, if we place implicit reliance upon the Gwent Bowman, Hansard—who is as indisputable an nuthority'in Toxo pholite, as his namesake is in Parliamentary, matters — our Warwickshire belles have an hereditary reputation to sustain, which it were disloyalty to all that is pure, and good, and beautiful, for one moment to doubt will be most successfully and gracefully sustained, when tested by the skill of those ladies of the th ree kingdoms withwhom archery ranks high among amu sements chosen to dissipate tho ennui of tho fair. The historian Hansard thus writes upon this delight ful theme:— " Eternal honour be the award of that distinguished society of archers who first made the happy discovery. To the good sense and discrimination of the Woodmen of the Ancient Forest of Arden' are wo indebted for the introduction of archery as a perfectly unexceptional re creation for ladies. It was fortunate their individual position in society entitled them to dictate the laws of fashion; under whose all-powerful influence the bow again made rapid advances in the estimation of the British fair. The example of the n o bl e and wealthy had, no doubt, considerable influence on the spread of archery; nevertheless, its own intrinsic excellencies were its chief recommendation. Requiring no exces sive corporal exertion, a combination of the most grace ful positions of all the bodily exercises, and invariably as sociated with refined and polished society, the bow appears especially adapted for relieving the sedentary occupa. tions to which women are still far too much devoted. But why seek to justify the practice, when, in our own day, we see the name of her Gracious Majesty, Alexan drine Victoria, Queen of the Isles, and a nation's hope, inscribed 'upon the Archer Rolls ? That ill ustr i ous lady , in imitation of the warrior race of monarchs from whom he springs, has given a proof of real British feeling, by the appointment of a Master of Archery ameng her household officers. About sixty years have elapsed since the commencement of this era in the annals of modern archery. Our countrywomen, long rebels in heart, did not neglect so favourbble an occasion for emancipating themselves from the ancient tyranny of harpsichord, spin net, backboard, and embroidery frame; and In the good greenwode, Among the like flower, they wandered, bow and shaft in hand, to seek that health and vivacity the pure breath of nature can alone bestow. The ladies associated with the Woodmen, were originally limited to their immediate family connexwannsci Soon, however, th e admission became more general; they compli men t e d th e fair members of o,htheersecieties prizes dis with fre e d om o f access to their gro unds. tributed by the Foresters of Arden have always then the Moe a?way been - s re markable for splendour and variety; b daunts, the Adamses, the Morlands, and,ose the Bagots, of the last, with the Boultbees, the Parkare, the fa Uresleye, —thir vicnris and the Grimeses, of the present age who have won, and who still * win and enthusi asm we ll end wear them,' con test their possession with a' skill worthy of their magnit ude. T o return to the detailed programme p st r a o t g e ra tra, m t e in fo a r d t a h i e tio 2 n o st t ha t n h d e 2th of Juno next, we usua l prizes for competition by ladies, a most beautifully embroidered Canton crape shawl has been presented to the committee by a Leamington subscriior, an act cf liberality and spirit on the part of a young tradesman which we feel much pleasure in recording. There also be four local prizes, two for ladies and two for gen tlemen, bond fide residing in the county of Warwick. Although these rewards are offered exclusively for ar' LADIES' PRIZES.

In addition to these the local prizes before alluded to pill be awarded, as also the champion's gold medal to the archer who has obtained a majority of the best scores, and of the greatest number of hits on the gross shooting, and at the several distances. The ladies will shoot each day four dozen arrows at sixty yards, and two d ozen at fifty yards. The gentlemen will shoot, each day, th e National York Round, namely, six dozen arrow s at one hundred yards, four dozen at eighty yards, gad t wo dozen at sixty yards. They will assemble at the target at a quarter before eleven, and commence the one hundred yards shooting at eleven o'clock precisely. After the one hundred yards, time will be allowed for luncheon, and at half-past two the ladies will commence the sixty yards, and the gentlemen the eighty yards shooting. On the evening of the second day a grand dress ball will take place at the Royal Assembly-rooms, when the winners will be declared. We take this opportunity of stating that the sub scription to the meeting is one guinea and upwards; and every subscriber will be entitled to two admission tickets each day to the ground, and also be eligible to compete for prizes upon making a f urther payment of ten shil linga and sixpence as a t arget entrance fee. thusln noticing at some length the minutia of those arrangements, the successful issue of which creates so large an amount of local and general interest, we may take this opportunity of complimenting the committee calling upon the resident s o f Leamington in upon the great liberality displayed in th e i r sc h edule of an particular, and of to extend to the amusem ents t h e i r prizes, strenuous encouragement, in a like spirit. That many local advantages will be derived from the meeting, can not be doubted, when we remind our readers that it will take place at a period when the " Great Exhibition" will attract to the metropolis, the most aristocratic families of Scotland and Ireland, who may, in all probability, Grace the archery pastimes with their presence, en route for the Crystal Palace; whilst every effort will be made to induce the directors of the London and North-Western Railway, to extend the accommodation of a special train, by which means several of the most distinguished foreigner: in London may thus be induced to visit Leam ington, and witness the dexterity and skill of many a fair yoxopholite. _ The great responsibility which rests upon the com mittee renders it very desirable that those ladies and gentlemen who are desirous, by their sanction and sup port, to countenance and assist the spirited efforts now making, should at once, forward their names, as sub scribers, to Mr. N. Merridew, the honorary local secre tary, who will furnish them with every information upon the subject. The local committee is composed of J. Hitchman, (chairman), A. S. Field, Esq., Mr. J. Haddon, Mr. E. Woodhouse, Mr. Jtif4'y, and Mr. G. Smith; while the National Society is represented by the fol lowing gentlemen, who are members of the general committee cf ruaragement :—Rev. J.
