EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. • Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office are—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 Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, 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 proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or retarn 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, anti will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire ()Mee will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to tire, 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 fifty 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 Coss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—There has been more firmness in the corn markets generally during the past week, and at late quotations a fair extent of business has been done. For to .day's market our farmers brought a fair supply of wheat, which met free sale at fully last week's rates, and in some instances rather more money was given. More inquiry for foreign, and fully late rates paid for what is on board ship. Oranaried parcels are held above our present currency. Heavy parcels of fine malting barley find ready sale, but in. ferior and grinding samples are in poor demand, even at our lowest quotations. A slow trade for any other kind of spring corn. The linseed market is very firm, with an upward ten dency, as may also be said of cakes. Nothing doing in rape seed, and rape cakes are less inquired for. Our quotations for bones we fully supported.

Let us, as men possessing common prudence, take ; warning from the distractions consequent on change, and by so guiding our every action render it in all absolute essentials perfectly unnecessary. But it may be said—from the peculiar construction of the human mind, and from the progressive action of the times—change is abso lute. This we readily allow in consequences, but where fundamen tal principles are correct, change is needless, although we grant the modes of carrying them out may vary. Take, for instance, the fundamental principles upon which E. MOSES and SON have establishel, carried on, and still maintain their gigantic project of still becoming Universal Tailors, Hatters, Hcsiers, Boot and Shoemakers, and General Outfitters ; and when their unbounded success is considered (a success which has had no limit except that which time itself invincibly opposes, and which lledt rime itself will ultimately remove), surely, as far as E. MOSES and SON are concerned change is needless. The fundamental prin ciples up an which E. MOSES and SON started, were to bring large capital and sound judgment into the markets, and so to buy at the cheapest rate ; to mike enormous sales and no bad debts, and so to sell at the cheapest rates ; to employ first rate talent in all the ope rative departments, and so to gain and keep an immense connexion ; and should perchance a caprice supervene, without argument, meet it by exchanging the purchase, or should circumstances require a return of money, without quibble or equivocation to afford a ready compliance. Surely, then, as far as E. MOSES and SON are con cerned—change is needle's. As Tailors, that E. MOSES and SON have carried out their prin ciples, the immense mass of their supporters, who are as regular in their patronage as the seasons in their approach, amply prove. Surely, then, with E. MOSES and SON—change is needless. As Hatters, they have" studied every combination of use and beauty, and rendered a geed Nat attainable by everybody. Surely, then, as Hatters, with E. MOSES and SON—change is needless. As Boot-makers. E. MOSES and SON have powerfully, perma nently, and deservedly got the length of the foot of the public at large, as they have accomplished what has never been before at tempted; they have culled from England and from France the choicest products of the trade, and by a happy union, have produced a boot, the world's admiration and the world's envy. As Boot makers, then, with E. MOSES and SON—change is needless. But all honour to the ladies and honour to those who study their comforts, their pleasures. Who so eminently has done this as E. MOSES and SON ? Come, then, judge for yourselves ; let there be no vain-glorious boasting; crown them with the wf oath of Fame made trebly precious by your touch; see their Riding Habits, their Shawls, their Hosiery, their Mantles, their immense stock of Furs, the tribute of all climes; notice that by exertion by industry, by skill, and by moderation in price, that they have placed them within the reach of all; and then you will unhesitatingly declare, that, as ladles' men so far as E. MOSES and SON are concerned—change is needless. Change, then, is needless, because the prim iples which have placed E. MOSES and SON in the proud, the enviable position they occupy, shall be still continued to keep them there ; and, as it has been ably saiG, that the best sense is common sense, which the pub lic possesses in abundance, is it matter for surprise that it is uni versally proelsimed, loudly and strongly, that so far as the patron age extended to E. MOSES and SON—change is needless. Shippers, captains and the trade are respectfully informed, that the great inconvenience of being attended to in a retail shop is for them entirely obviated, as their immense mass of well-stored whole sale warehouses are entirely distinct from the retail departments, a i i l n l, te a r n e d st t s. the means shall, as they ever were, be sev eral youths as cashiers. Apply by letter. still Notice.— W anted, devoted wish,wt t o n h ht e ee di will, A. handsome Almanac, for the year 1851, can be had gratis, on application. Notice.—The Fur and Shawl Departments are now replete with very novelty of the season. Observe.—Any article purchased, either ready-made or made to measure, it not approved of, will be exchanged or the money re turned. Caution.—E. ideses and Son regret having to guard the public against imposition, but having heard that the untradesmanlike false hood of being connected with them, or it is the same concern, has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state they have no connexion with any other house in or out of London, except their own Establishments, as follows : London City Establishment, 154, 155, 156, and 157, Minories, 83, 84, 85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

Fine parcels of wheat and flour maintained the rates of this day week in the sales made, but inferior descriptions of each were easier to buy. Oats and oatmeal were in very limited request, and nominally without alteration in value. Egyptian Beans were in good demand at 21s per quarter, but 21s 6d being generally asked, the sales were unimportant. Barley and peas quite neglected.

Sir,—Before your correspondent " Truth" meddled with my calculations, he ought to have been sure of his own. The expense of the troop-ship is as follows, if commanded by a Commander:— £. a. One commander (difference between full and half pay) 145 0 Two lieutenants (difference between full and half pay) 185 0 One master (difference between full and half-pay)... 73 10 One mate One surgeon ... .. ... ... ... ... 91 5 One purser Two midshipmen •.• ••• ••• ••• ••• 63 54 it One clerk .. 634 13 The expense, if commanded by a master:— X. 2. d. One master (difference between full and half-pay and allowance for stores) .. ... ... 146 18 6 Four second-masters (difference between full and half-pay and allowance for stores) ... ... 292 0 0 One assistant-surgeon (difference between full and half-pay and allowance for stores) ... ... 102 2 6 One clerk ... ... ... ... ... ... 66 18 4 607 19 4 " Truth," in his calculations, took no account of half pay, and ho allowed three lieutenants, instead of two. He gave two medical men to the Commander, and one to the Master, which ought not to be; and he forgot the Commander's clerk. The saving, then, to the public is 271. 13s. 6d., instead of 661., as I stated ; and if an assistant-surgeon is added to the Commander, which is uuite unnecessary, the addi tional expense would be 331. 13s. I remain, your obedient servant, CHARLES NAPIER. 13, Albemarle-street, March 9. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—Having seen in The Sun newspaper of Saturday last a statement relative to the expense incurred in offi,eri,g the Apollo troop-ship has induced me to trouble you with the following scale of her present establishment, and one which might be adopted for all troop and store ships of the Apollo's size and class, showing a saving of 4991. Bs. 9d. a year, and at the same time would be quite as efficient. I would, how- ever, give the command of all store-ships and troop-ships, of the Apollo's size (and larger ships that are and might be commissioned for that particular service) to an experienced commander, or to a master who has been master of a ship of the line, or in the command of a smaller store or troop ship, with the rank of a commander during the time he held such command, or as Master of the Fleet—of course the appoint ments to rest entirely with the Lords of the Admiralty. All store and troop ships of the size similar to the Tyne should be commanded by experienced lieutenants or masters, as at present, taking care to have all efficiently manned, with reduced masts and yards, to give an enemy a good thrashing, if necessary ; and I would strongly recommend all to have marines on board to guard the stores, &c. The Second in command to have the store allowance —I am, Sir, &c., March 11, 1851. AN OLD OFFICER. TROOP-Sill P APOLLO. PRESENT ESTABLISHMENT.

Id., THE LATE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF IN INDIA. TO THE EDITOR OF THE &UN. SlR,—May I request your aid to give publicity to a fact, most honourable for Sir Charles Napier, which the Indian newspapers have carefully suppressed? When at Kurrachee, on his way to Bombay, the great Belooch Sirdars of Scinde—the men who fought at Meeanee and Hyderabal—waited on him to present a sword, valued at 300 guineas. Was this a testimony of their fear, or their admiration of a conqueror? No, Sir. It was presented to him as a mark of " their gratitude to him for saving them, after the battles, from the miseries of a conquered people— for restoring to them their rights and their ppssessions," —in fine, for the blessings of good government. And this by Eastern men, nearly four years after he had ceased to govern, and when he was retiring from power, and from their country for evar!—l am, Sir, &c., March 11. W. NAPIER, Major-General.

THE FUNERAL OF THE LATE EARL OF HARRlNG TON.—Yesterdayt the interment of the mortal remains of the late Earl of Harrington took place in the family vault of the parish church of Elvaston, Derbyshire, four miles from El vaston Castle. The body was removed from the late Earl of Harrington's town residence by special train yesterday morning. An immense number of persons :assembled, and the utmost decorum was displayed during the whole of the impressive ceremony. A very considerable number of tenant farmers joined the procession. The nobility and gentry o f the neighbourhood had sent communications t o the family, requesting permission to pay a last mark of respect to the Noble Earl's memory; but the applications were most re spectfully declined. The Countess of Harrington arrived the follywing evening. The funeral service was read in a most impressive manner by the late Earl's chaplain, after which the body of the deceased Earl was then deposited in his final resting-place. The inhabitants closed their shops out of respect to the Noble Earl. REPRESENTATION OF TAUNTON.—We understand it is . intended by a stron g b o d y of the elec ' ors to sen d a requisition to Mr. B.

The fair beneficiarie sus tained the character of the heroine, which she may be said to have created, seeing that th e play had not been acted for more than a century until it was revived at Sadler's Wells at the commencement of the present season, when its success was owing, in a great measure, to the very judicious manner in which Mi ss Gl yn per sonated the Duchess of Malfi. The character was, there fore, last night well chosen for the occasion, and Miss Glyn elicited enthusiastic applause from her numerous admirers who crowded the house to suffocation. Katherine and Petruchio followed, in which Miss Glyn played the shrew to the life. SEIZURE OF FOUR THOUSAND GALLONS Or WHISKY. —A seizure of considerable Magnitude has just been made, by order of the Commissioners of Inland ttevenue, viz. , of 24 puncheons of whisky, ranging f rom 20 to 30 over proof, and amounting in the gross to 4,000 gallons, at Downe's Wharf, East Smithfield, at which place it had recently ar rived, by one of the trading steamers, from Scotland. It will be remembered that a short time since a seizure was made at the St. Katherine's Wharf of several puncheons of whisky, consigned from a merchant in Edinburgh to a house in Lon don, and the casks used for conveying it were what are known technically as "game casks," or barrels with the staves scooped out inside, so as to allow a greater quantity of liquor to be conveyed than could be ascertained by the ex ternal gauging. The party in that case was fined 3001. Since that time further information has reached the Com missioners of Inland Revenue of frauds committed in the transmission of articles of this description, and consequently instructions were given to the proper officers to keep a keen that country with spirits amongst on al l ongst t he v es sels cargo. A n arriving nor d i n fromgl a few days ago, Mr. Th o . Brain, the Port Inspector of Inland Revenue, went to Downe's Wharf, on the arrival of a steamer from Scotland, and on overhauling the cargo, found 24 puncheons of whisky. As the exporters are required to mark on the outside of each cask its precise contents, he felt some doubt that one of them which he gauged was properly marked, and he deter mined upon having the same measured. The result was, that the contents of the cask were found to be from three to four quarts more of spirits than had been represented. This discovery led to further investigation, and in the end, it was considered necessary that the whole 24 puncheons should be measured, to ascertain whether they were fairly represented. This examination, as in the former case, proved that a sys tematic fraud had been committed, as every cask was found to contain more than the declared quantity. He accordingly placed the entire stock underseirtire, and communicated to the tupon Queen the , swarehouses subject, who deredin i removalon er s of l o n f l Coin m t i h ss e P i : i zed b i r n o g u s gh w_ t ill to al r s i o gh b L e oo i a n ni. oafftirpoaaeun•daslties to the amou sh n a t ll of b : inga.

THE PALACE IMPROVEMENTS.--The last portion of the alterations and improvements at Buckingham s Palace, consisting of the ornamental railing e xtending round dthe en tire fr ntage of the building, and intersected and two side entrance gates , having been completed, th e greater portion of the hoarding has been removed, and w ill , or three day s . w. be entirely taken away in the co urse of t fforded of th d' ' A full view is, therefore, now e a dawn made a a l effect . d to the palace, and of the ge-er bs admitted that if not everything . that could be desired for the town residence of our most gracious and beloved Queen, the alterations go far to relieve the building f rom it s f orm r insignificant and unsightly ap pe arance, - . and give it some d egr ee of uniformity and appropriate character.

FINGER NAlLS.— Experiments have shown that a man's nails grow their complete length in four months and a half. A man living 70 years renews his nails 186 times. Allowing each nail to be half-an-inch long, he has grown seven feet nine inches of finger-nail on each finger, and on fingers and thumbs an aggregate of seventy-seven feet and 1 six inches. ,f , -
