E. MOSES and SON have conducted their immense Clothing rd Outfitting Establishments upon this system for some years, ir ing with the pullic the sav i ngs w hi c h their immense capital z.tables them to effect in their purchases, and contenting themselves Zti uniform but exceedingly small profits, by which system the best ides in every departmenrof dress reach the public at a price which li o tn affY instances scarcely equals the amount a pu rc h aser wou l d at the o Pay for the material. The fact is, the price of cloth, which Manufactory is worth 15/., may become 20/. in the wholesale ~.'naouse, 251. in the retail, and be sold at the rate of 351. before it ii'oefles the tailor, who has still to get his living profit. Messrs. E. t ha ES and SON arrest the price at the maker's, buy even cheaper th e tt t he first price by taking large quantities, and buying cash, and , rt u blic have the benefit of their savings. e sYstem adopted by E. MOSES and SON has always been the .671'; t heir goods are marked with the lowest price that can b e rl, and this is never varied. Whether a ladies' cloak be 20s. or ' geni i t he One is as well worth the price charged as the other ; the etaan's coat at 50s. is as cheap at that price as the one is at be„,an both s not too much to assert the lower priced articles are far Otte in material and workmanship, than can be procured biz e Zere. or than any one would believe until inspected, while the Very beat articles for ladies, gentlemen, and children equal the tra cks " that can be had at any cost, of the so-called fashionable eor e , tfl oh, for Messrs.

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) The loading 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 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. IS 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 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 be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Of2ce will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to titre, 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 sett 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 Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

DENBIGH, APRIL 9.—There was an advance in prices, wheat 15s 6d, and some lots realized 16s per 1681bs. Barley and oats were also in advance. CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, ft, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in England, and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 280/. —making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected 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 months preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,963/. 2s. 6d.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,048/., upon which 3201. 311. 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 3,7321. 11s. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 741/. ls., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,9911. 15s. 11d. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,183/. 1 ls. 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 France, Monsieur de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur resists, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected 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, and returning thanks to the Eight Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prospects. pROMOTER LIFE ASSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY.

At the sitting of the Assembly 'yesterday, yesterday, M. LtIoN FAUCHES ascended the tribune ; and read the following declaration : .

O f the Executive power and its loyal declarations, strong, permit me to add, in our sentiments, we hope by our acts to merit and to obtain your support. To maintain order, to cause the law to be respected by everybody, to fortify authority by the vigilance and the equity of the Government ; to give to the Administration a firm and active impulse; to secure interests and to calm minds is the mission, as we understand it, of the Go vernment at the present time. We intend to devote ourselves without reserve to this task, and we have the hope of being supported in this course by your concur rence and the sympathies of the country:" No manifestation of feeling followed the reading of the declaration. . ..~.r, a: 00 •f. . M. SAINTE-BEUTE recalled to mind that on the 18th January the then Cabinet fell by a vote of cen sure. The three leading members of that condemned Ministry now presented themselves reinstated in office before the Assembly, thus casting at th e l eg i s l at i ve body the most glaring defiance. that was to b e f oun i in the Parliamentary history of Franca, or o f any other constitutional country. He ended by propos . i n g National the Assembly followingm o persists of January, which declares that it h as not confidence in the Mi n ist r y, and passes to the ord er o f e iv s e i d s t s o order e r its o f the resolution day :—" Th e of the the day."

Th us the pure and simple order of the day was adopted by a majo rity of 42, in a house of 602. This decision is to be considered not as a vote of confidence, but as an expression of a desire to give the new Ministry a fair trial. Already a formidable opposition is organized against them. The Republicans of all shades will vote against any Ministry, of which MM. LEON FaucnErt and BAROCHE are members ; the Orleanists who follow M. THIERS will also oppose them ; and the Assemble Nationale, the organ of the Guizot section, thus speaks of the new Ministry : " Who can explain the veritable motives for the re turn of MM. Baroche, Rouher, and Fould, who have already been so near to upset the coach? Is such selection prudent at the opening of a crisis which mry decide the fate of France? We feel no personal hostilito , to the honourable names which form this Cabinet; there are even some amongst them for whom we feel great esteem and sincere affection, but we persist nevertheless in saying that such a combination as this is a grave error, of which the consequences will soon be apparent. The Patric tells us that these names will appear in the Moniteur. We yet hope that the President of the Re publie will not commit so capital a fault. There is not amongst those persons the name of any one of those members of the Parliamentary majority who took part in the late discussions between the two powers. The President has been circumvented, and is deceived. Firm ness in the Government is a great quality, but such firm ness should not become headstrong obstinacy. Ministries of defiance have ever been fatal to Governments." The:Legitimatists, notwithstanding the admission of M. DB CROUSHEILES into the Cabinet, do not seem inclined to afford the Ministry any very warm sup port. The Union says The new Cabinet, it will be seen, is taken exclu sively from the party of the 294—that is to say, from that portion of the majority which declared itself in favour of the Elysee. It was hoped at one time that the provisional state of things would be put an end to by a Cabinet taken from the entire majority, around which the different shades might have united for the general interest in order to pass through the crisis which are be fore us. The Elyeep has in reality done nothing to bring about this result; it has wished to confine itself within the limits of the 294. Tbat being the case it remains to be seen what attitude the new Cabinet will assume before the National Assembly." There was not much business transsoted at the Bourse.

WOOL TRADE, LONDON, APRIL 10.—The market is quiet. The imports of wool into London during the week ending to day, are 1,877 bales, including 1,000 from Peru, 744 from the Cape cf Good Hope, 102 from Mogadore, and 31 from Germany. FOREIGN WooL, LEEDS, APRIL 11.—There have been more buyers in the market during the past week, and rather more business doing. No change in prices can be quoted. ENGLISH WOOL, APRIL 11.—There has been a rather better feeling in this branch of trade this week, and sales have been made at last week's rates, to supply the immediate wants of the manufacturers. _ . . LIVERPOOL WOOL, APRIL 10.—There is nothing at all doing in wool ; very little to offer. Imports the past week are-4 bags from Malta, and 74 ditto from Egypt. TRADE OF LEEDS.—Our markets have been rather better at both Cloth Halls since this day week, and about an average quantity of goods have been delivered to direct orders. Prices in consequence kept steady, and the stocks moderate. Busi ness has been rather dull for the season in the warehouses, but a little more is doing by the foreign houses. BRADFORD MARKET, APRIL 10.—Wools—The long-con tinued paucity of buyers of combing wools appears to have somewhat terminated ; and since last Thursday considerably more lookers have been in the market, and where anything worth the value has been offered, some lots have been taken for assorting up the spinners' stocks, which must now, from the long cessation from buying, have been far worked into. Notwithstanding this continued flatness, wool has nut given way in prices at all in accordance with the expectations of the spinners, who generally find a great anxiety to clear out prior to clip day; from the difficulty in buying from the growers to replace, stocks are more firmly held, and the chances are that the trade will continue unsatisfactory both to the holders here and the consumers, who complain loudly of their unenviable avocation. There is no fixed price for any particular kind but the staple article. Middle wethers may be quoted at 11 1 4 d to ls, according to make and country. Yarns—The firmness evinced by the holders of combing wools, coupled with the diminished production, has given a tone of stability to the price of yarns, and the long absence of buying by the shipping houses has had the effect of bringing them again into the market; but so universally low are the prices at which they are buyers, that this has only had the effect of making spinners more determined to narrow down the working of their machinery till a remunerating price can be realized; for all hopes of relief from wool being at a lower prise appear at pre sent at an end. Pieces—The spirits of the manufactures are now anything but buoyant, for to realize prime cost is impos sible; the fall in the price of goods being out of all proportion with the reduced price of yarns. As the latter has now made a stand, any further hope from this source appears improbable. Cobourgs and Orleans have not been moved in quantities ex cept at very bad prices for some time, and mixed Alpacas, though not lower in price than last year, are equally as profit less, from the great advance on the raw material, which has never been realized on goods. TRADE OF MANCH ES TER, APRIL 10.—Although the mar ket to-day has not been very animated, a greater steadiness of prices prevailed than on Tuesday, both in cloth and yarns. Buyers continue to operate, however, with the utmo s t cau ti on . Many of the private letters, by the last overland mail from India, are said to have been very dispiriting, and scarcely re concileable with the encouraging tone of the advices by the previous mail. From the Levant the accounts are also very discouraging ; the markets appear to be overstocked with prints, and plain cloths and yarns are also depressed in price, and unremunerative ; still exporters in this market are doing quite as much as they have done for some time past. In the home-trade business continues very languid, notwithstanding the fineness of the weather ; and an opinion is freely put forth in some quarters, though not generally acquiesced in, that it is in a great degree attributable to the steadiness with which the working classes are hoarding their savings to visit the great Exhibition.

THE SHEERNESS COMMAND.—Three candidates are prominently named for the command-in-chief at the Nore—Vice-Admiral Dacres, Sir Charles Malcolm, and Sir Hugh Pigot, K.C.B. Vice-Admiral Elliot's time will expire on the 9th of next month. Sir C. Malcolm is said to be the favourite. Lieutenant W. D. Lyster (1845) is nominated an Ad miralty agent for one of the Southampton mail steam packets. Astrea, old store-ship, has been taken into dock, and is being broken up at Devonport. Aurora, old frigate hulk, is also ordered to be broken up. Tartarus steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Risk, fitting at Woolwich, is ordered to be armed with two 32-pounders 17 cwt., and two 32-ponnders 25 cwt., six feet long. Rattler screw-sloop, Commander Cumming, was visited at Woolwich by Admiral Berkeley.' She is to be paid off on Tuesday. Not a single case of corporal punishment has occurred during her commission. Vivid steam-packet, Master-Commander Smithett, will not have her engineering defects repaired before the first week in May. PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 11.—The Penelope steam-fri gate, Captain Lyster, pendant ship of Commodore Bruce, is fully and well manned. She is waiting for the adjust ment of her compasses, and will go to Spithead on Mon day morning, receive advance on Tuesday, and sail on Wednesday for the coast of Africa. The Greenock iron steam-troop-frigate arrived at Spithead to-day from Devonport in charge of Mr. Brown and a navigating party. She is on her way to Wool wich, and put in here to send in supernumerary seamen, volunteers for the Prince Regent, &c. Colonel Sir Frederick Smith has been appointed to the command of the Royal Engineer department in this garrison, vice Colonel Lewis to the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich. PLYMOUTH, APRIL 11.-11er Majesty's steam-vessel Greenock came down harbour yesterday morning, and sailed to-day for Woolwich. The Camel lighter arrived yesterday with stores from Pembroke. Mr. E. Jenkinson, master of the barque Minstrel, of Bridlington, reports the total loss of that vessel. His advice is dated the 9th of April, 1851, on board the ship Nicholas Bid,lell, off Falmouth, bound to Havre. When in 37 degrees west longitude the Minstrel was struck by a very heavy sea forward, and experienced subsequent gales, by which her larboard anchor was carried away, together with stanchions, covering boards, binnacle, sky light,(companion, rudder, On the 31st ult., in longi tude 21 deg. 37 sec. west, she was finally abandoned. From her leaky and strained condition then it was not probable she would swim twenty-four hours longer; and had another gale come en with the crew on board, the Minstrel must have gone down and all on board perished with her, APPOINTMENTS. WOOLWICH, APRIL 11.—Paymaster and Parser— Charles E. Cotterell (1812) to be Secretary to Commo dore Martin; dated April 10. Acting Assistant-Surgeons—Frederick Lekeux (1851) from the Impregnable flag-ship, at Devonport, to the Castor, 36, at the Cape of Good Hope; and Charles E. Playfair, to the Victory flag-ship, at Portsmouth. Master's Assistants - -E. L. B. Williams, and C. J. Cawley, to the Prince Regent; R. M. Carry, to the Tartarus steam-sloop, at Woolwich. Clerk—Henry T. Road (1850), to the Prince Regent, at Portsmouth. Rear-Admiral Sir John Hill continues to act as su perintendent of Deptford-dock and Victualling-yards, although it is understood that Captain the Hon. Richard Saunders Dundas, C.8.(1824), is appointed his successor. Captain the Hon. R. S. Dundas is at present on a visit in Scotland, which may account for his appointment not being as yet officially announced, and for the continuance of Rear-Admiral Sir John Bill in the charge of the es tablishments over which he has so long had the charge. The blocks have been all laid and the keel prepared or commencing immediately at Deptford Dockyard a paddle-wheel steam-sloop, to be named the Cruiser.

ADELPHI THEATRE. The proverbial fogs of London were last evening turned to amusing account, by supplying the foundation for a well-written and evenly acted farce at this theatre. The London Fog was cleverly rendered on the stage by means of a dark gauze suspended in place of the cur tain, behind which people came in contact, tumbled about, and yelled to th© great delight of a numerous awlience. The fog scene changed to a bachelor's lodging, into which Mr. Paul Bedford, equipped as a struggling artist,labouring under the legal penalties of a dishonoured bill, rushed precipitately. On lighting a candle, ho discovers that ho has entered the wrong apartment, but the landlady appearing, he recognises her, and con trines a plot against his uncle, the occupant of the lodgings. Presently Mr. Wright enters, is entertained from his own larder and cellar by his nephew and his friend, the landlady, both disguised; and, after the usual amount of difficulty and misunderstanding, matters are cleared up, and, as a matter of course, a wife and a mode of release from his difficulties found for the struggling painter. This material, conveyed in smart and pointed dialogue, served Mr. Wright for one of the most ge nuine touches of comedy we remember to have enjoyed from him. The farce was received with loud laughter and applause throughout, which is what might be ex pected, for it is understood to be the production of Mr. Mark Lemon. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Beehunter here took his place about a length from the leader, c h a llenged on entering th e cor d s, had his head first 111 f-way up, and appeared to have the best of the race; The Knight, however, came again three or four lengths from the chair, and won on the post by a head.

Apart from this event we may safely affirm that the day was a fitting wind-up to the worst Craven Meeting on record.

NOTICE TO THE --- 11;U 7---- BLICT-GENERAL POST-OFFICE. The extended adoption of street-door letter-boxes, as recom mended in the notice to the public of May, 1849, has consi derably promoted the rapid delivery of letters. The Post master-General, in r enewing this recomendation, takes oc casion to advert to the great increase of Post-office duty which will arise out of the approaching Exhibition, and which will render it still more important that the postmen s h ou ld not be unne cessaril y detained. Householders who have no t already provided street-door letter-boxes, are there fore reminded that it is peculiarly desirable that such pro vision be made before the la of May. SPAIN.

ERMAN The followi ng iG s the text o Y. f the protest of the French Government against the annexation of the non-German provinces of Austria : _ " PARIS, FEB. 23. " TO M. ANDRE, AMBASSADOR AT DRESDEN. " I have received the dispatches which you did me the honour to address to me up to the 11th inst. " The Government of the Republic had entertained a hope that its well meant and moderate remonstrance against the project of an incorporation of all the Austrian fear that provinces into the Germanic Confederacy would be_ re considered by the Cabinet of Vienna, and by those Ger man Governments which were induced to support that project. The last advices, however, from v erfoss quarters. and the direct communications which 1: have asr received f t he Confederation make e that un d er the been though t . from the Emperor's Government, preparations are making to proc i e; e d oa , s Confederation which pretence of securing the efficiency b against revolutionary intrigues, in . prO per to establish, the treaty of Vienna establishe d in the place ofh balance of power in Europe , a no t h er,. and different Con federation which would effectually overthrow that ba lance of power. The Government of the Republic, re solved not to consent to such an innovation, thinks it its duty to declare t .., that if such innovation be Ziff e ffected with out its consent, and wituout the consent of the other Powers which s i gne d the treaty of Vienna, that the Go vernment of the Republic would consider this as a flagrant violation of the treaties. • ~ W e declare this beforehand to avoid the responsi bility of the danger which such a state of things must sooner or later, and perhaps sooner than it is believed, enta il upon Europe. At a time when social order is threatened, We should be deeply grieved to see that those who are most convinced of the necessity of com bining against the danger volunteer to place insur mountable obstacles in the way of such a combination, and to violate the boundaries which international law as yet opposes t o th e d es p era t e a tt em pts of the enemies of order and peace." - itity If malt MALT AND Hors.—The total quan. _ 0. made during the year ended October 10, 1850, in the United Kingdom, as shown by an account now before the House, was 5,183,617 quarters, viz., 4.396,972 in t ngland, 571,635 in Scotland, and '215,010 in Ireland.
