EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,000/. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office ara —Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of rist —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 Insarance can only be ap )roached 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 Office will, by a constant anal, sis 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 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 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. Prospectuses, and every Information may be obtained, on applica tion at the Oflloe, or to any of its Agents. National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society. * Equitable Fire f* Both Offices. CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 5, 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 EnglarZ, and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for Mg.—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 let of June, 1849, and the 31st of NI - ay, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 12 i, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. lateen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums. Since the commencement of the Company to the let of June last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. I Is. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,930/. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. Is., 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/. I Is. 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 Parisis, 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 Right 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.

January 4, 1851. O S S OF T E E T 11. A NEW and very curious invention connected with Dental Surgery has been introduced by Mr. lIOWARD, of 17, George-street, Hanover-square; it is the production of an entirely NEW DESCRIP TION OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfrctly resemble natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer. They will never change colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever befo•e used. This method does not require the ex traction of any Teeth or Roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve the Teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. The invention is of importance to many persons, and those who are interested in it should avail themselves of 3lr. Howard's NEW DISCOVERY. RAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE. EASTERN COUNTIES.

BLACKWALL RAILWAY, TILBURY EXTENSION.—The standing orders were held by the examiners not com plied with in the following respects—errors in 6 names of owners or occupiers out of 728, and ore slight inac curacy in plan. The Bill will be referred to the Stand ing Orders Committee, who will be applied to, to au thorise it to be proceeded with. ST. HELEN'S CANAL AND RAILWAY.—The half yearly statement of accounts has just been issued to the proprietors. From this it appears that the receipts have been, by canal traffic, 8,2491. 17s. 2i. • railway coal, &c., 8,3771. Os. 6d.; passengers and parcels, 1,8701. 14e. Bd.; making a total of 18,4971. 12s. 4d. After deducting the expenses there remains a balance of 016/. 55. 9d., which is reduced by a payment of 1501. from the revenue of permanent way to 4,0661, 59. 9d. DETENTION OF Gomm AT A STATION.—At the County Court at Chelmsford, on Wedneedsy, an action was brought by a commercial traveller named Thompson against the Eastern Counties Railway Company, to re cover 21. 1 ls. 6d., compensation for inconvenience, ex penses, and loss of time consequent upon the detention of three packages of goods, with which he was travel ling, at the Colchester station. It appeared that the plaintiff was, on the 3d of July last, at the Witham sta tion, on his way by the down-train leaving London at 3 p u., and at that station paid 10d., the demand made upon him for the boxes he had with him as extra lug gage. On arriving at Colchester station the officers re quirei of him a further sum of 3s. 7d., which he refused to pay, and they in consequence detained the goods at the station, compelling him to remain in Colchester the whole of that evening without them. The following morning the goods were given up, without any claim for the 3s. 7d. asked of him iu the first instance, and the action was brought to compensate him l'or the inconve nienc,! to which he was put by the company's servants. Judgment was given against the company for 21. 2s. STEAM AND GAS WITHOUT COAL.—It is scarcely thirty years since a Committee of the House of Commons doubted the poisibility of travelling at the rate of even fifteen miles an hour. Winsor, too, was laughed at when he pro posed to light street lamps with coal gas; Dr. _Gardner en deavoured to prove the impossibility of a steam-ship ever b into oat crossing to America; Professor Wheatstone was treated as a clever enthusiast when he first promulgated his ideas of the electric telegraph; yet all these things have been brought companies have lately entered into an arrangement with Mr. S a licesful operation.

BRADFORD, JAN. 28.—Last evening (Monday) a day. monstration of the' members and friends of the Bradford Freehold Land Society took place in the Temperance Hall, at which Ain Cobden and Colonel Thompson were prekent, when the former took occasion to resume his progno.tications in regard to the approaching session. The chair was taken by Mr. Titus 'Salt, a leading merchant of Braiford, and the hall was densely crowded. The report of the society's operations was read by Mr. German, the secretary, from which it appeared that 'th, Nlembers in the House of Commons as to compel these men to vote against Government., and therefore they would have to repeal this windooptax. Some ono cried out just now that he would rather have a repeal of the taxes on knowledge. Now, lam sufficiently heterodox to think the same, for I would rather let light into the mind than light into the body.—(Xpplause.) But they are both odious taxes, and should be repealed. What I want to show you is, that if you would have the taxes repealed which press peculiarly upon yourselves you must get more power in the House of Commons. A VOICE —Would you support the taxes on know ledge ? Mr. COBDEN—No. I have said both these and the window -tax are bad, and I know of no bad tax I would support.—(Hear, and applause.) I voted with Mr. Milner Gibson against the taxes on knowledge last year, and I shall do so again if I have the opportunity.—(Hear, bear.) I say the taxes on knowledge—the stamp on newspapers—(A Voice—" And the duty on papor")— yes, the duty on paper—they are all bad; but the stamp duty on newspapers produces a mere bagatelle; and if it was abolished, and you were to allow the pro prietors of newspapers to have the option of having a stamped edition to send through the post, and an un stamped editien for sale, it would not make a difference to the revenue of 150,0001.; and when we have three millions of surplus that is really not worth thinking about.—(Hear.) And if this stamp is kept on—l will not say for this year only, because the question has tot been agitated—but if it is kept on for some two or three years longer, it wilt not be on the ground of its being a fiscal tax merely, but because the Government don't want to let in light and political knowledge among the people.—(Hear, hear.) But I must tell the working classes themselves that they have been particularly silent on this question—(Hear)—and they wilt never have their penny newspaper to read during dinner hour unless they get the stamp duty repealed.—(Hear, hear.) And in order to get this you must work. I will tell you what would hasten it—if it was known that the working classes were busy in joining freehold land societies and becoming voter=.—(" Hear, hear," and applause.) You know you would have to go to the same Parties to get the stamp off, as to get anything else. Now, there are two ways of getting the franchise—the old-fashioned way of shouting and clamouring for it from the House of Commons; and the other way of investing your money in freehold land societies, and then you go to the House of Commons with the key in your pocket.— (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) The old plan has been tried long enough. I don't object to any one who bas sufficient faith going on in the old plan if he likes; in fact, I am thankful to any man who agitates for an ex tension of the franchise in any way.—(Hear, hear.) But I have long since lost faith in the getting of the franchise by the old plan, and have concentrated my attention ou these freehold land societies' for increasing the constitufmcy in the counties. And why ? Because by this means a man will get a vote in a given time. Now, I should be trifling with and deceiving a man if I told him that by attending public meetings and shouting and clamouring oe would get the franchise in—;ay five years. I don't oelieve be would get it in rive years, or perhaps in 50, in ~hat way. But if he join a frwhcld land society, I can tell him exactly when he will have a vote for the county. But, in the next piece, unless we can alter the represen tation in the counties, I don't think we shall have a chance of getting many good measures from the House of Commons. The counties stop the way in all reforms. —(Hear, and applause) Why, by the Beform Bill you had an increase in the number of county representatives; but whilst the whole number of county representatives, for the same counties were nearly doubled, being for the most part cut in two—instead of keeping to the 40s. freehold vote, which was the franchise for 400 years, you admitted the 50/. tenants-at•wil, which gave a great in crease to the influence of the Irridowners, who marshalled the farmers and drove they; up on the polling day very much as these same farmers would drive their cattle to Smithfield.—(Hear, and 'Ri g ht er .) I rec ollect attend ing an election for South Lan cas hi re an d ca nvassing for a county candidate, I saw the t enantry o f an estate sit ting at breakfast in a certain place. I rode up to the poll with them, and a gentleman said to me " You saw these men sitting at bre a kf as t d ecora ted with blue ribands; I saw them all at th e l ast e l ec tion decorated with orange ribbons; the estate has changed hands, and they all changed their colour accordingly."—(Loud laughter and cries of Heat, hear.") fore, infuse more new blood int o th e coun ty representa tion, and turn the scale in yo ur f avour i n order to secure the passing of a popular measure. —(Hear.) I don't believe any sterling me is ore You must, there re or Parliamentary reform WWI ever so weak in Perliareent as it is at this moment. And why? Because the county influence is so strong that you could not certainly get more than some half dozen of these represeetatir ee to vote for any popular measure that might be prop ose d. L oo k at w h a t has hap pened. Yeu have had electi ons f or Herefordshire and Montgomeryshire, and you have vacant seats for Gla morgaeshire, Bedfordshire, and South Nottinghamshire. Now, in every one of these counties you will have a Protectionist candidate returned; for though in South Nottinghamshire there ore two candidates, in conse quence of the squabble betw een th e l a ndlords and the farmers, they are b o th P rotect i on ists; and in every one of these five county elections, finan cial reform and other measures of importance wilt never be discussed; Protection and extravagance will walk the course.—(Hear, hear.) The opposite principles have no chance at the hustings; and why? Because the voters who elect the Members are large landowners or farmers, or they constitute between them the i great majority of electors.—(Hear, bear.) And the candidates are selected and settled upon, not at large meetings like that, where great topics are discussed, but they are selected at the drawing-rooms of great houses, who make them a sort of appendage to the fatally estate, to be handed down just as they have done their parchments—if they hap pen to have them in their possession —(Laughter)—from father to son.--(Hear, bear.) You see this going on w h e rever you see an election. I don't know any coun ties except one or two metropolitan an d manu f actur i ng counties—excepte in those, I don't k now any count i es i n which would have the smallest c h ance o f sen di ng hiem you to represent year opinion;, or who wou ld vo t e suffrage, or who w ou ld no t, b er s i f f or th a e rl y ehxatdentshiueu chance,ofthe re-impose the corn-laws,— (Cheers.) Then can an y thin g show this in a stronger called ea l a o m f meeting or incgin any of these coun n.ilws, and nobody would come to oppose me; and yet, with the excepti on light?tcoun ties t o I ept couldi tpetition faovre a rep of the metropolitan and manufacturing counties, the landowners will carry candidates who would, if they could, re-enact the corn-laws.—(Hear.) Does not this show how the matter stands, and that the representation in these counties is merely sham? And I would ask if we do not understand the thing, and are not rendering the greatest service to the State, who are trying to bring the representation of the counties into greater har mony with the real wishes of the great majority of the people?—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) Now,_ understand me, I don't think this plan of 404 freehold franchise should be taken as a substitute for any other measure of reform; I want you to avail yourselves of this franchise as a means for obtaining ParliaTeoltary reform as well as for other purposes.—(flear , neat.) But it is with the conviction that to lend myself 4, the mere holding of public meetings to obtain a relbren in Parliament —knowing that the representation in the counties is what it is, and knowing that there is no chance of the petitions being listened to in the House of Commons—l soy, if I were to lend myself to the mere holding of public meetings, I shool , l be lending myselfto a delusion; and therefore it ie I i.na anxious to in crease the county franchise by incatie such as the3o free hold land societies offer. Let the county representation be what a borough representation for the most part is, and then we shall have some chance of success in our efforts to obtain Parliamentary and financial refine, and all the other reforms which we need.—(Cheers.) don't confine myself to an extension of the suffrage; the present distribution of the franchise, which is as bad as it well can be, will be corrected by an extension of the 40s. franchise. Take, for instance, the West Riding of Yorkshire, whi c h re t u rns two Member.lt contains— as I believ e th e census of this year wi show--a million and a half of people. I have the lionour to sit for this Riding, yet I ate outvoted by the Member who sioi for a small corrupt borough like St. Alb ans , who gets into Purliameut by bribery and corruption. —(Hear, hear.) Now, this would not continue a single session after tho people were fairly S UN, FEBRUAR forieVectiFria:;::(Che'ers.) , It-is $o urd that if you had a House of Parliament represent the people, it would instantly be done away with.— Jar, hear.) The utmost term you should give should be three years; and of the House of Commons I would have one-third re-elected every year, as is the case in your municipal councils.—(Loud cheering.) It would enable people to express their feelings and opinions once every year, and it would at the same time enable the Government to ascertain what public opinion really is. —(Hear, hear.) Moreover, it would prevent the great danger of Government not being in harmony with the wants and wishes of the people.—(Cheers.) This is the great danger—the monster evil.—(Hear, hear.) For that which produced the great convulsions of the continent of Europe was the want of harmony and ab sence of sympathy between the continental Governments and the people whom they ruled.—(Cheers.) Now, gentlemen, there are at the present moment in this country—in all parts of the country, I may say, for I am in communication with societies of this kind from Brighton to Newcastle-on-Tyne—there are between 30,000 and 40.000 members of these freehold land socie ties.—(Hear, hear.) Why, we used to be told that this was the number of landholders in England; and this addition is, in my opinion, but the beginning of these societies. I think we shall have branches extending to every town and village in the kingdom—an 4 I shall not rest satisfied until these 30,000 or 40,000 multiply into 300,000 or 400,000. This movement is not the thing to create noise, agitation, and disturbance in the country. Your report says that you have done your work without noise and agitation. I do not mean to say that a little agitation is not sometimes necessary, if it be only to outdo other candidates for popularity; but this is a movement which will progress noiselessly and without agitation, and therefore it will get no notice from the politicians.—(Hear, bear.) Gentlemen, it has been the fashion to sly during the last three or four months, " What a dead calm there is," because there have been no processions, with flags and banners, and shouting for Parliamentary reform, which Parliamentary reform would not come.—(Hear, and a laugh.) But, gentlemen, this freehold land movement is like the agitation for the repeal of the corn-laws. We were on that occa sion disregarded by the politicians for five years; and, in fact, it was only when we took up this land scheme that we were noticed by the politi cians. Until we in this way laid the foundation of our strength the politicians persisted in crying out:—" There is a dead calm;" just as if you were to go into a forest of trees and say, " Oh! all is very quiet; there is really nothing doing there;" and then go again in twelve months after, and looking round, repeat the story, " Ah! there is no ehange here." Bat this is not the way to ascertain the growth of a forest. Go again, after the lapse of due time, and then you will find that grove of young oaks grown into a forest of stately timber.— (Cheers.) Well, all moral movement for the advance ment and elevation of the people must be slow—they must be the work of time; just as the growth of the oak tree from the acorn.—(Hear.) If these movements are to he permanent in their results they must be slow. I therefore say, when you have a political object to obtain, if you are not content to work with the society slowly and for years—to lay out your money year after year, with the assurance of a good return at last—if you are nut content :o work by a movement which grows and consolidates by its gradual advance--if you are not con tent to abide your time in a quiet movement like this— then, I say, I would rather not enter into partnership with you.—(Applause.) You may, it is true, get some thing by a sudden shock and concussion; but it will be like a railway train getting off the line—there will be much more harm than good arise. —(Hear, hear.) We have seen on the continent things taken—reforms effected by a sudden spring—by the force of a sudden and violent effort.—(Cheers.) But what was the re sult ? For six months everybody was in amazement at the progress which had been made.—(Hear, hear.) But what of the next twelve months ? Why, all were go ing back again—hastening back to the dark point from which they had suddenly and with violence started.— (Hear, hear.) And so, gentlemen, will it be in this country if you attempt to gain any good except upon the principle of persevering labour from day to day and year to year.—(Applause.) And this is the reason why I like this movement. It must bo slow and steady in its growth and it is sure to answer because it is gradual and constitutionaL—(Hear, hear.) I am glad to meet you here in Bradford. You are setting an example to the rest of the West Riding in having the largest number of members in the Riding; and I shall not be content this time twelvemonths in coming among you, as I hope to do again—(Applause) —if Ido not meet you in the new Music Hall, just as much ahead of the rest of the West Riding as you are now.—(Loud and continued cheers.) You are the most prosperous town in the West Riding, and ought to do more than others. I have been looking over your list of officers, and find you more fortunate than any society in any town I have ever met.—(Hear, tear.) Here is your president.—(Applause.) Most presidents are merely put in as ornaments—(Alaue;h)—but your president has been working fur you with that munificent liberality which belongs to him, and has shown his willingness to aid this society by his purse and personal assistance. — (Applause.) Then you have for trustees the picked men of the county—a county which cannot bo beaten in the kingdom.—(Hear, hear.) Theu yoe have for a secre tary a man who will work for you night and day.— (Hear, hear.) I look forward, then, to seeing you again next year. I will come down and count you over; and I make no doubt that instead of being 600, you will be upwards of I,ooo.—(The Hon. Member sat down amid loud cheering.) Mr. W. E. FOaSTER moved the following resolution: " That this meeting, whilst it recognises the utility of freehold land societies as a direct and constitutional means of extending the political franchise, trusts that the example of those members who thus qualify them selves, and the influence of these additions thereby made to the number of county voters, will tend to promote the cause of good government and hasten the period of an extension of the Parliamentary suffrage." Councillor liewsoN seconded the resolution, and in so doings delivered a good-humoured chastisement, amidst roars of laughter, to those of the working classes who expressed their desire for Parliamentary reform, but be lied their sincerity by their intemperance and improvi dent habits. He said that he had latterly paid some at tention to the dram shops. I have sometimes (he con tinued) gone off the causeway, finding that it was too narrow for some of you. Not long ago I met two of you—l know you both. I overheard one of those two say to the other," I have got a good sup of drink to night; and I have still ss. he my shoe, having cheated my wife of it."—(Loud laughter.) So long as a man cheats his wife he is cheating himself.—(Hear, hear.) The man who does that is doing an injustice to all around him.—(Hear, hear.) If anybody will take the trouble of going through the streets on Saturday night, he will be ill set to get on for drinking folk.—(Laughter.) The police are always at fault with some men, because these men aro always at fault with themselves.—(Hear.) I have been agitating with others for the franchise, but in my opinion we have done little for the attainment of that object, and this movemeut will do more in five years than what we have done by the old mode of agitation during twenty-five years.—(Hear, hear.) If work ing men will begin to respect themselves, everybody else will respect them. If men will be mean and low and grovelling in their habits, they will never bo looked upon other than as slaves, and deserve no better.—(Hear, hoar.) If you are determined to tax yourselves by your drinking habits, we are determined to tax you by keep ing a police to keep you quiet,—(Laughter.) I have told you a little of my mind, end when there is more time I will tell you more of it.—(Hear, hear.) Colonel THOMPSON, M.P., then presented himself amidst loud end reiterated cheering, waving of hats, &C. When the applause had subsided, he said—Nir. Chair man, it must r:ipear to be very difficult to add an ything to what has been said in support of the subject of this meeting; and yet there is a p o int which I have f?rs‘ o,lohe w time longed to be able t o t rea t of before you, and n' eetieg, I think I can bind in with the object of y our without exposinf; triself to the charge of 73, e sonable or imprudent. One thing I want _ a r i e 'Y to mark. I call upon those rece=ding much laughter)—who (Pointing to the reporters, angels of the pss write with iron pen on somet hi n g f all who shall beer it, rock, to note it for the benefit o adrnmouro durable than the laught aud take core that no Proteetienr t drops a tear upon it to blot it out for ever.—(Che ers an ( l • er.) I must melee history of the fact, that I heard your chairman s a y these were times he hoped you would endeavour to keep: It is the first ititne in my,life I have any w h ere heard it confessed that there were such thing' as good C 1, 1851. ~ r [PRICE SD. timee.—(Lsughter.) I never heard of good times any where except in Bradford. This event I want to turn to use. What do your good times come from? Do you think they come from chance? Or is it not on account of that great change in the public policy which has hap pily been made to throw open the trade of the world to this country, and made you the instruments and organs of conducting it.—(Loud cheers.) I wish I could make myself understood by the youngest boy that tends a spindl.—and I don't know that I need despair of doing it.—(" You need not.") Why is the Bradford trade good? Because the foreign trade is free. Because corn comes in for Englishmen to eat, and Bradford men make the goods it is paid for in. Can you understand that, or can you not?—(Hear, and applause:) Is there any man here so simple (and in the whole county, I hope for its credit's sake there is none), that thinks corn comes in without being paid for? There are such in other counties, but not in this. There is no man here but knows it must be paid for in something. In what things is it paid, except in those commodities which foreigners wish to take? And who makes those commodities but you?—(Hear and applause.) Now, let me tell you (if you did not know it before), that there are even now, men with lot ards on their chins, going about the country and begging that the influx of foreign corn may be stopped, for the sake of what?—Protecting British in dustry.—(C'neers.) You, then, are not industrious! Hold up your bard hands and give evidence of the false hood. You are not British, I suppose! In one British qualification you have had your share, and that is in paying taxes.—(Laughter and cheers.) Cannot I then persuade you that this outcry about protection to British industry solves itself into this—lf you can rob a Brad ford man by putting a stop to foreign commerce, do it: That is the amount of the plea.—(Hear, bear.) Stop yout commerce! Why should your commerce be stopped to benefit that of any other men?—(Hear, hear.) Is not fair play a jewel every where?—(Hear, and applaus. Have you not a right to carry on this commerce by which you and the community are benefited? Now, just examine into the case. These men say,—" Here is an artizln who would be benefited by stopping the Brad fordcommerce!" I put the case as it sometimes occurs to myself:—Foreigners can, fur instance, make a piano forte which the consumer likes better by 51. than he does an English one. " Oh!" says the Protectionist, " stop that directly; it is paid for in Bradford goods; put a stop to it and see how the community will gain." How, then, does the community gain? Is not the consumer of that instrument made to pay 51 more for it; and must he not spend 51. less on some thing else? What, then, is the result of all this round about? Simply that the bread is taken out of your mouths to put into somebody else's, and that the con sumer spends 51. for nothing, instead of spending it for something, which, in the other case, he would get.— (Hear.) I wish I could instil this into all of you; for then I am sure you would aid with heart and voice in resisting this miserable trickery of pretending to give protection to British industry by stopping foreign trade. —(Cheers.) You see how this bears upon the present question. lam sure there is not one amongst you but would like to put a check as quickly as possible upon these mischievous exertions. How shall you do it ex cept you have votes? Here, then, an open door is shown by which you can enter and obtain a vote. Strive like Men to enier into it; accept the advantages proposed to you, and do your utmost, consistent with the present wants and necessities of your families, to secure to your selves and them the advantage of possessing a freehold and a vote. If it was a freehold only, or a vote only, I perhaps might not press it upon you; but it is a freehold and a vote—a vote and income too.—(Hear, hear, and loud cheers.) Unless we are all equally misinformed, you are not asked to spend your money for some doubt ful advantage, but to lay it out in that which shall bring you present income proportioned to the outlay.—(Hear.) And let me take this opportunity to obviate one plea I have heard urged against the practice of what is willed dividing the land into small properties. Oh yes, they see great danger in the division of the land into small properties! They like to see large properties—they consider them much more manageable! Let me point to one example at no great distance. If any one thing has enabled the French people to bear up against the dan gers and difficulties with which they have been encom passed, it was, I believe, that single fact that the land there was divided amongst numerous small holders.— (Hear, hear.) Wei will find, if you observe, that a dead set is made against that system, because those who make it know what are the advantages to you and the disadvantages to themselves.—(Hear.) They,oay these small holders are poor. So they are. It is quite true that the French holders divide properties among their children till the properties are the very smallest that can support men in life. Aud where's the harm of that ? Compare this with what takes place, for instance, in Ire land. A man there has an amount of land that will just find potatoes to keep him alive; and he pays a high rent for it.—(Hear.) The Frenchman has land which will do no more than ke-p him alive, but he pays no rent, because he is the owner.—(Hear, bear.) What is the consequence ? That one man lives miserably in Ireland, with very hard work; and the Frenchman lives, poorly enough, but quite as well as the other, with a moderate portion of work, which leaves him time to be merry, and do a great many other good things besides.—(Hear. hear.) Therefore, after this, lot no man be deluded with the idea of danger from what is called splitting land into small properties.—(Hear, hear.) Split it into as many as you can—(Hear)—and get as much of it to split as you are able.—(Hear, hear.) Depend upon it that all ex perience is in favour of there being a remarkable acces sion of dignity and influence about the, man that pos sesses a portion of the soil of his country.—(Hear.) It gladdens my heart to see growing up among the work ing classes of this country a desire to be landholders—to expend upon that the gains which they can make—more especially at such a time as this has been declared to be —of more than ordinary prosperity.—(Hear.) You know not what may be to come. You know not what may overtake you and your country ten years hence, and such of your children as then remain. Think bow con venient, how comfortable it may be to them, that you have thus expended the honest savings from what you are now making. Compare that with the enjoyment from what you expend on present mirth and pleasure, and too often, I fear, on that which is no mirth, and very little pleasure.—(Hear.) Compare the two things. and choose the better part. Let us always be able to count upon Bradford as being the most prosperous town in the West Riding, and also as a town which exhibits the greatest quantity of forethought and the greatest extent of preparation against those evil days against which prosperity is no bar—which ordinarily come at come time upon all men, and which we must expect of course to come upon ourselves. The advantages of your situation are great. 'rlB true, as has been said to night, that there are few places where the working classes have better leaders than you have here. You have had plenty of opportunities to test their honesty, their eurne.t desire to be assistant in promoting your advautage.—(hear.) Make the best, then, of all those gifts which Providence has bestowed upon you--be an example to the county and the country, and to all those other countries which are continually looking upon you as an example of prosperity which they envy for them selves.—( I'he Gallant Member resumed his seat amidst several rounds of cheering.) Mr. G. MAYER proposed that a vote of thanks be presented to their worthy representatives, Mr. Cobden and Colonel Thompson, with whose able and eloquent addresses they had been favoured on that occasion. Alderman FARREA seconded the resolution, and the resolution was carried amidst enthusiastic demonstrations of approval. Colonel THOMPSON, M.P., again presented himself, amidst loud and reiterated cheering. He said, lam de puted to return you thanks in the name of both of us for the honour you have done us. It is not the first time we have endeavoured to win honour by hunting in cou ples. I hope it will not be the last. To meet you here recalls the memory of many a period of exertion of which I hope we do in some sort reap the fruit here and else where where we pass. 'Tis much better to be doing some good to society in this way, than to enjoy the ad vantage of what the world calls fame, honour, and for tune.—(Cheers.) I think our children after us are quite as likely to say, my father in his time did some good to his townsmen and his country, as if we had been trailed through fields of blood which, if necessary, undoubtedly might have been meritorious acts, but which too often are executed in pursuance of mad ambition and wicked passions.—(Hear, hoar.) Be assured that we feel most sensibly the thanks with which yon are pleased to honour us. And if you see us again exerting ourselves on other scenes, you may think that your applause upon this occasion has contributed to give us strength.--(L oud and reiterated cheers.) R Mr. B. HARRISON then moved, and Mr. T. seconded, a vote of thanks to the Presi dent, for hi USSELL s able conduct in the chair.

' ffs Vie place of refuge of Mrs. Sloane; * hose successful elopement reflected, in the first instance, dis credit upon the whole body of the City constabus'ary. On the3d of January information was simultaneousl3 re ceived by several of the officers that Mrs. Sloane was concealed in the neighbourhood of Twickenham. This account, though witho u t t h e l east foundation, was at first implicitly believed by the police, as it talli e d i n esery respect with the movements of Mr. Sloane, who it is proceedand to i t exam n t s i pe on a r t Guildhall, traced proceeding i n tlia needless to say was under st r i ct surveillance, and had May, shou l d s Inspector cto been invariably, at the close of hi was accordingly determined that I nspector Scott, Super i ti scour ten h d e t nt ea s spec Hodgson, ,d ne i ghbourhood, and Dani el direction while in Mitchell, with Brott and Spittle, pushed their in quiries in a contreey direction. This was accord ingly done, but, as the public are already away), without resulting in anything more ' important t o the ends of justice than the clearance effected of all the rogues in the vicinity, who rather hastily de camped, not a little alarmed at the vigorous and rapid 'movements of the offiesers. The false nature of the in.. T formation upon which they had acted had scarcely bee a discovered before equally positive and apparently Lea thentic information was received from a ditienent uarter, which stated that Mrs. Sloane was living in the little village of Wilton, a short distance from Twicleen ham. This statement was equally without foundation, and the officers had scarcely recovered from the lipstle into which it had thrown them, before it was stated that Mrs. Sloane was seeti walking about the fields in the neighbourhood of . Wilton during the night; and at an other time that she was seen by a person who was intimately acquainted with her, disguised in man's clothes. In short it wool: :eke a volume merely to describe the thousand ever varyipsateenfficting rumours and confidential statements which 'viiiteforwarded inces santly and from all parts of the kingdom tithe officers in pursuit.' Every inquiry which suspicion could suggest , every manoeuvre which long experience had placed e.t the disposal of the detectives, were employed, but in va'm up to last Sunday week, when all their expedients were exhausted, and still s .., Mrs. Sloane was forthcoming ; when suddenly it was discovered that Mr. Sloane, whose every motion had been watched, was not to be found. A very little inquiry soon convinced them that he was not in London, and it was almost as certain that wherever he had gone his wife was with him. Upon the receipt of this intelligence a kind of general council was held by the officers, and the difficulty was considered in every light; but the total absence of all clue to Mrs. Sloane's,place of concealment completely bated them. In this exigency, when almost every proposal had been successively discussed and abandoned, it was determined to watch narrowly a gentleman who had throughout been, Mr. Sloane's principal adviser, and indeed the only per, son in London who knew for certain Mrs. Sloane's re treat. This was accordingly done, and that too with such secresy and perseverance that not a movement was unknown to the police. This line of conduct was anon followed by excellent results, for from that and other sources known only to the officers they all came to the unanimous conclusion that Mrs. Sloane was in France. In accordance with that belief, Superintendent Hodgson went over to Boulogne on Friday week last early in. the morning, taking with him the judge's warrant for the apprehension of Mrs. Sloane. Having ascer tained that Mr. and Mrs. Slcane, with Miss Devaux, were residing there, under an assumed name, in a money changer's house opposite the pier, he applied to the Bri tish Consul at Boulogne to aid him in executing the war rant. This, after mature deliberation, the consul de clined to do, as in the present state of the international law only felons were given up, and the case of Mrs. Sloane's being only a misdemeanour, though of the highest class, he could not interfere. Mr. Hodgson ac cordingly returned to London on Saturday morning, and reported the result of his journey at head-quarters, to Mr. Alderman Humphery and Commissioner Harvey. In the course of Saturday afternoon Alderman Humphery, in company with the Commissioner, left Guildhall and proceeded to the Foreign-office to com municate with the authorities there, and the result of that interview appears to have been that Mr. Hodg son was dispatched the same evening to Boulogne. He arrived there with Daniel May. the detective officer, early on Sunday morning. May knew Mrs. Sloane well by sight, having had her as a witness for a prosecution at the Old Bailey about five years ago. This intelligent officer was not long in obtaining a sight of her, and at once identified her. When he and Mr. Hodgson again waited on the Consul they informed him that Mrs. Sloane was residing there under an assumed name, that being an offence against the laws of France punishable with three months' imprisonment. Upon receipt of this intelligence the Consul sent for the Pre fect of Police, who, after some conversation on the sub ject, being uncerteku how to act, communicated by tele graph with the Gonernment authorities at Paris, and in a short time receive s& instructions to give Mr. and Mrs. Sloane notice to quit France within a certain time. This had all been managed so quietly that the accused parties did not even suspect that their place of concealment was known, much less that the officers were on the point of apprehending them. On Monday morning, early, the Prefect waited on Mr. Sloane and asked him his name, which he coolly replied was " Simpson." The Prefect, who was exceedingly polite in his demeanour to all par ties, expressed some doubt as to that being the case. Mr. Sloane, however, assured him that he had spoken the truth. The Prefect then requested permission to see their passports, but Mr. Sloane said, that as he did not intend going further than Boulogne, they did not require any; therefore he had none to show. The Prefect then addressed Mr. Sloane by his right name, and he was so astonished that he lost all self-control and acknowledged himself. The Prefect then advised them to leave Boulogne directly, or he would be under the painful necessity of requiring them to quit or take the consequences. He at the same time explained to Mr. Sloane, in as courteous a manner as possible, that such was the law of France relating to foreigners living in France under fictitious names. Mr. Sloane, who had by this time completely recovered his self-possession, prepared for his immediate departure, taking a passage in the Boulogne boat to Folkestone for himself, wife, and Miss Devaux, in their right tames; Mr. Hodgson and May keeping in the background, watching them close enough to prevent their escape. Soon after they went on beard these officers followed them, and took up a position apart from the accused. During the voyage the officers kept them in view the whole time, and when the boat approached the English shore, they actually overheard them plan. Ding, in French, the best way to make their escape from Folkestone without recognition. When they came into the harbo ur the officers called th e ca pt a i n of the vessel aside and informed him of the cha racters of his three passengers, and begged him to take some precaution!, as their right names were on the list sent ieto the Custom-house, in order to prevent any ebullition of popular feeling against them; and he accordingly gave direciions to his men to remain silent on the subject, and sent to the Custom-house a request that the luggage might be passed without any comment, which was accordingly done, and Mrs. Sloane parted from her husband and Miss Devaux and landed. She passed through a great crowd on the pier and the Cus tom-house unquestioned and without the slightest incon venieace, and took her way to the railway station, in puruance of the plan agreed upon previously, closely followed by the officers, who, while tbo street was com paratively clear, accosted her by her real name. She firmiy denied that was her name. Upon the offic...rs re iterating their assertion, at the same time begging of her not to hesitate or resist, as they rete.ht not be able to pro tect her from outrage in the event of her being recognised by the mo b, she became alarmed, trembled violently, an d seemed about to taint, and said, " Oh, let my husband know." With some difficulty, as her weakness increased, she was conveyed to the railway station and accommo dated with a private room, to which May shortly after conducted her husband and Miss Devaux. Thence they were conveyed by the express train to London, and arrived at London-bridge at five o'clock on Tuesday i mornng. She then proceed e d i n a ca b t o Moor-la ne p station, where she remained un til th e t i m e ap p oin ted - to was go before the judge at We s t m i ns t er -ball, wh • ere t she the fully committed to Newg a t e t o t a ke her tri a l s en suing Old Bailey sessions.

Too much praise ca nnot be given to the men -who conducted this difficult investigation with such patience, diligence, and perseve rance as eventually to overcome all the obstacles that lay in their way. The public will learn with surprise that the remuneration given in return for the detective officers' arduous services does not exceed the ordinary pay of constables on duty in uniform. Yesterday a boy named William llomaa Hatboro, aged 8 years, expired in the acc id en t wa rd of St. Bartholo mew's Hospital from the effects of injuries received from a furious bullock, which was being driven from Smithfield market. It appears that the parents of the unfortunate boy reside at 7, New-street, St. Andrew's-hill, Doctors'-commons , and on Wednesday afternoon last, while proceeding towards home, a bullock in an infuriated state, which had made its way fr9m Ludgate-street, ran at him with great speed, and, before the little fellow could get out of the way, the animal t w o h it which h e gored him with one of its horns, which penetrated the right and re leasedMWArande w o und ed cheek immediately beneath the eye.
