(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 ran only be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted on, or systematically ap:4lled. 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 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 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.

LOSS OF TEETH. A NEW and very curious invention connected with Dental Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, 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 before 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 Mr. Howard's NEW DISCOVERY. THE COUNTRY MARKETS. IPSWICH, FEB. 11. . _ The market was thinly supplied with wheat; the sale was very heavy, and only the samples in good dry condition com manded any sale.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Moniteur publishes the following communicated note:—" In anticipation of the rejection which has just taken place on the subject of the expenses of represen tation, numerous subscriptions have been organized. This was an imposing and manifest testimony of sym pathy for, and approbation of, the conduct of the PRESI DENT. He is deeply affected at it, and cordially thanks all those who had the idea; but he think it his duty to sacrifice a personal satisfaction to the repose of the country. Lie knows that the people will do him justice, and that is sufficient for him. The PRESIDENT, there fore, refuses any subscription, however spontaneous and national the character of it may be." The Presse considers that the differences between the PRESIDENT of the Republic and the National Assembly are permanent and irreconcileable. The Legitimatist journals are very bitter in their at tacks on the speech of M. DE MONTALEMBERT. The Moniteur announces that the following modifica tions have been made in the command of the troops as sembled and maintained at Paris ' in execution of the de cree of Bth July, 1848:—Instead of remaining separated into two divisions, one of them three times more nume rous than the other, and in brigades not less unequal, they are to be formed in three divisions, and in brigades of about the same force. This change, the Moniteur says, will be advantageous, because it is as much as pos sible the adoption of the system of division which is the basis of the organisation of armies; and that journal adds, that it will be effected without any movement of troops. The Moniteur announces that the Ist of the new divisions will be commanded by General CARRELET, who commands the first military division; the 2d by General GUILLABERT; the 3d by General LEVASSELTR.

ADELAIDE GALLERY. The above spacious gallery, well known to the London pleasure-Seeker, has been elegantly fitted up as a con cert-room, and the first grand vocal and instrumental concert, under the direction of Signor Montelli, came off last night with great éclat. The principal vocalists are Mdlle. Rummel, Madame Lemaire, Mias Binckes, Herr Stofrogen, Mr. Mapleson, Signori Ronconi, Montelli, and Campanella, Mr. Drayton, and the celebrated Spanish . vocalist Dona Maria Martinez, the black Malibran. The instrumentalists are Messrs. Rousselot and Demunck (violoncello), Mons. Arban (cornet-I-piston), Remusat and Briccialdi (flute), Mr. Gerhard Taylor (harp), Mr. Sedgwick (concertina), Messrs. Sainton, Serola, &c. (violin), and a host of others too numerous to mention. Mons. Demunck's violoncello solo and Mr. G. Taylor's performance on the harp were loudly applauded, as in deed they deserved ; the execution of both on their re spective instruments was marvellous. Madlle. Rummel won golden opinions from the very splendid manner in which she rendered the whole of the music allotted to her. Signor Campanella, a new basso, ma3e a very suc cessful debilt, and will be a very efficient member of the talented corps engaged for these concerts. The evening's entertainment was pleasantly enlivened with some Spa nish songs by Madlle. Martinez. On the whole the concert passed off excellently, and, judging from the crowded state of the rooms, bids fair to be a very profit able speculation. The growing taste for good music will lead people to where it is to be found, and so long as the directors of these concerts place such an attractive bill of fare before the public as they did on Monday night, they will be supported, SPORTIN G INTELLIGENCE.

PEDESTRIANISM. WALRING TO KENDAL AND BACK IN TWENTY- FOUR HOURS.—On Mond a y l as t t hi s feat, the accomplishment of which by Tim Ingham, a few weeks ago, caused con siderable excitement in sporting circles, was attempted, and, as we learn, completed, by an inhabitant of this town, of the name of Wm. Durham, a potter, 31 years of age, who accepted a challenge to perform the task for a wager of 201. a side. As the clock struck twelve, at noon, he left the Preston Town-hall, two or three hundred persons being in attendance to witness the com mencement of this arduous undertaking, for which, we understand, Durham, who has never been famed for any pedestrian exploits, bad undergone no training whatever. He set off at a good speed, and accomplished the first two miles in twenty-two minutes, and reached Garstang is little more than two hours. He rested there about a quarter of an hour, in order to obtain some tea, by way of refreshment, when he resumed his journey, and reached Lancaster at a quarter past four. He remained there only for a few minutes, when he commenced his task, and having reached Milnthorpe, he again rested a short spite° of time, and arrived in Kendal, forty-four miles, at ten o'clock at night, being then, as his friends say, very fresh and hearty. His agree ment was to go to the Town-hall, so having touched that building, he rested for about half an hour at the Oddfellows' Hall. He set off on his return home at half-past ten at night, meeting with no particu lar adventure by the way, beyond being for a few minutes unwell at Milanthorpe, and requiring a little rest there. He resumed his journey, after lying down about half an hour, and continued his walk at an even pace, reaching Preston at twenty minutes past ten on Tuesday morning, having completed his task in an hour and thirty-two minutes within the appointed time. The weather during the time was most unfavourable, and the roads were very heavy.—Preston Chronicle. THE ROYAL SOCIETY. On Thursday evening a very interesting paper, pre pared by Mr. Dickenson, on the supply of water from the chalk stratum in the neighbourhood of London, was read to the members of the Royal Society. Mr. Dicken son records therein the results of observations extending over a space of 40 years, and of careful experiments car ried on for a period of 15 years. The locality within which his inquiries have been chiefly made is that whence the Colne and the other chalk streams on the north side of the London basin take their origin. His paper has a two-fold object—first, to explain and illus trate the supply of subterranean water which is found at certain depths in the chalk stratum, together with the circumstances that influence its natural outflow by springs and rivers; secondly, to examine the practicability of draining off that water by a non-natural mode of exhaustion, and the changes that would be produced by carrying such an operation into effect on a large scale. The first and most elaborate part of the paper will prove chiefly interesting to geolo gists; the last is of great practical importance as the opinion of a close observer most intimately acquainted with the subject on one of the schemes afoot for a bet ter supply of water to the metropolis. Mr. Dickenson's paper begins by explaining that the outcroppings of the chalk in Kent and Surrey on the south side of the Thames, and in Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, and Essex on the north side, are the uplifted margins of a great bed, the hollow of which is filled with strata of sand, gravel, and London clay. This trough-like form of the chalk stratum is combined with great absorbent powers, water percolating through its fissures and cre vices till arrested by the argillaceous beds which extend beneath it, and which are impervious. Thus are formed those subterranean reservoirs which Dr. Buckland describes in his Bridgewater Treatise, and from which some have supposed that, by means of pumps, a copious supply of water could be obtained fur the metropolis. In order to form an estimate of the capabilities of the reservoirs in the chalk stratum. Mr. Dickenson's paper furnishes some interesting data, the result of experiments chiefly made with Dr. Dalton's gauge for estimating the supply of perennial springs and rivers by percolation from the surface. These data, as Mr. Dickenson very properly observes, " show the necessity of extreme caution in making pro spective computations as to the flow of water resulting from an average amount of percolating rain." They, however, furnish some results which are worth recording. The replenishment of the great reser voir appears from these data never to commence sooner than October, and is found to terminate almost invariably in March. But of an average sum mer fall of rain, amounting to 12.17 inches, the percola tion amounts only to 62 decimal parts cf an inch, the per colation during winter being 9.61 inches, Mr. Dicken son argues that it is by continuous heavy rains that the subterranean reservoir is supplied, and that water in descending does so perpendicularly through the crevices until it arrives at the depth where they are all filled with water. The reservoir fills up in winter and spring from the rain falling, and sub sides in summer and autumn from the outflow of springs. The highest level of subterranean water, therefore, Mr. Dickenson places between April and June, the lowest in December; end this, he says, confirms the old proverb thst "as the days lengthen the springs strengthen." He points out that, owing to the re plenishment of the internal reservoir depending al most entirely on winter rains, the supply of the springs and rivers derived from it is not only variable, but in a certain degree precarious; the irregularity in the supply of water, however, being far beyond that in the annual fall of rain, and that irregularity de pending upon the uncertain manner in which the process of percolation goes on. From a length ened experience, Mr. Dickenson lays it down that the springs and rivers of the chalk formation are the sole natural outlets of its subterranean reservoir, and that, judging from the flow of those outlets, the Dalton gauge indicates pretty accurately the rate at %,4 hich the reservoir is supplied. His paper proceeds to show how, by the influence of hydrostatic pressure, water which has percolated down to the point of satu ration is kept in continual though gradual move ment towards its natural vent, the half-yearly alterna tion in the flow being compared to the high and low services of the water companies; and it being ob served that when the spring-heads of the streams are found highest up the valleys, then the numerous springs which augment them through almost every yard of their course contribute an increased supply propor tioned to the increase of power by which the water is impelled towards them. From experiments made by him Mr. Dickenson comes to the conclusion that a de clivity of 13 feet 6 inches, or thereabeuts, in the mile is requisite to overcome the natural obstructions to lateral percolation. He thinks that " the whole of the summer rain is evaporated or required for vegetation, and that the rain of winter is made available for a great hydraulic system of most admirable contri vance, and productive of inestimable advantages in the districts of country supplied throughout the year by this formation of springs and rivers. On the second branch of his subject—viz., the feasibility of tapping the chalk stratum at its outcrop, in the vafley of the Colne, near Watford, and pumping from one or two large and deep wells a supply of water suffi cient for the metropolis, Mr. Dickenson pronounces a decidedly adverse opinion. He thinks the supply would be very far short of that obtained by the New River, and that the upper part of the valley of the Colne would have all its springs and wells destroyed there by, and some space of the river entirely dried up. The paper was illustrated by a very beautiful and ingenious model showing a section of the chalk formation and the action of water within it, and the connexion between the subterranean reservoir and those external springs which form its natural outlets and con stituted the river. Mr. Dickknson briefly ex plained this model, which was examined vs ith great interest by the members of the society present. A short discussion then ensued, in which Sir Roderick Murchison, the Bishop of Oxford, and others took part. Sir Roderick thanked Mr. Dickenson for the careful and valuable observations which his paper contained, bat seemed to imply that these observations applied rather to superficial waters issuing from the chalk than to the great subterranean reservoir which Dr. Buckland had described, and which rested upon the chalk marl, the lowest stratification of the chalk formation. The Bishop of Oxford also spoke briefly with reference to the flow of chalk streams from either side of the escarp ment on the south of the London basin, and also with respect to the phenomena of " lavants" or springs, which, though for the most part dry, gush out suddenly after a period of muck rain falling, and flow steadily for a short interval. Tho discussion was closed by Mr. Dickenson, who confined himself to exposing the adsur dities broached by a Mr. Homisham, a gentleman who, though permitted to address the society, is we believe not a fellow. DISASTERS IN THE IRISH CHANNEL.—KINGS TOWN, FEB. 6.—The master of the schooner Cambria ar rived this day from Bristol, bound to Nantz, picked up a Greek seaman floating on a spar, and much exhausted, twelve miles south of Wicklow Head, at four r.x. yesterday, who belonged to a Greek vessel from Liverpool to Alexandria, with a general cargo, which vessel was wrecked on Tuesday night on the Arklow Bank, he being the only survivor of the ill-fated vessel, sixteen in number. The master of the Cambria could not learn the name of the vessel wrecked, from the man saved not knowing his language; but it ap pears the vessel soon broke up, as the master of the schooner observed large quantities of wreck floating about. The man saved was put on board the Eltinea, a Greek brig, which sailed immediately after for Cardiff. Later accounts state, that the vessel to which the poor fellow belonged was the Greek brig Maria Terpsitha, Dimitro captain. The master of the brig Delight, from Workington, bound to Cork, which put into Kingstown Harbour on Thursday night from stress of weather, reported his leaving on Wednesday, the sth inst., five miles S. E. of Wicklow Head, picked off a part of the wreck of the ill-fated vessel seven of her crew ; one poor fellow had one of his legs broken, and two others tome ribs broken. The wounded men were sent to the hospital. The crew consisted of seventeen persons, the master and eight of whom were drowned. The master of the Delight did every thing in his power to alleviate their suffering.

CIVIL LIST PENSIONS.—The numb r of pensions charged upon the civil list between June 20.1849, and June 20, 1550, is 12, and amounting to a total of 1,2001. The Parliamentary paper giving this information was omitted to be presented at the proper time last session. SPAIN. Madrid journals of the sth have arrived. The Government has resolved to introduce a clause in the new press law giving trial by jury in all cases of prosecution against the press.

Letters from Berlin, of the 9th, announce the refusal of Prussia to negotiate on the Austrian basis for a Customs Union. The Vienna journals publish a list of the grievances of Austria against Switzerland and S.lrdinia; this is evi dently the forerunner of an irruption of Austrian hordes into those countries. Austria is bankrupt her self, and therefore seeks perpetual quarrels with her weaker neighbours, in order to be enabled to quarter her troops upon them. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Austrian troops have entered the citadel of Rendsburgh. Hambargh, Altona, Lubeck, and Trave made are also occupied by them. At Lubeck the Austrian soldiers are hissed and hooted by the people whenever they appear. ITALY. The Croce di Savcia of Turin of the 7th repeats the rumour of the definitive resignation of Count SICIRDI, the Sardinian Minister of Justice and Worship. The Risorgimento, a ministerial paper, is, however, silent on the subject. COURT CIRCULAR. - WINDSOR, FEE. 11. The Queen held a Court and Privy Council at half-past two o'clock, in the Castle.

Yesterday a ftern oon , a gentleman, named Samuel Parnell, who reside d at No. 7 , Baker -street, 1 was noticed sitting in front of the fire reading the news paper. Soon after that time an acquaintance called to see the unfortunate gentleman, when , o n some one proceeding to his room and opening the door , M r. Parnell was found sitting in his chair completely enveloped in flame. A young lady rushed into the house for the purpose of rendering assistance; but, being unsuccessful , and owing to the density of the smoke and the body of flame, she dropped sense l ess on the floor, where she would soon have been suffocated had it not been for the exertions of some of the other inmates. t The flames were extinguished, but not until Mr. Parnell was burnt to d ea th. The unfortunate deceased NM 88 years 1 pf age, NARROW ESCAPE. About five o'clock on Saturday evening last a frolic was performed at Wilford Ferry which very nearly re sulted in a fatal termination to one of the persons con zsrned. Two individuals, who apparently had been imbibing rather freely, having arrived on the Not tingham side of the ferry, one a knight of the anvil, the other valet de chantbre to a neighbouring baronet, just as the boat had at tained the middle of the stream in one of its many voyages " from pole to pole," proceeded, "just for a lark," to work their own passage, by passing across the chain hands and heels upwards, heads and tails hanging down. The f o r em ost of thes e adventurers had not gone ten yards, however, when, in consequence of the weight upon it, the chain sank into the water, leaving nothing but the tips of . his toes and the ends of his digits visible—all the remainder of his person being completely submerged. His companion had not loco model above five yards, when his legs lost their hold of the iron, and down he tumbled from an horizontal to a perpendicular position, much less ag reeably than pre ciptately, sinking up to'his waist in th water, and hang ing like a herring at the end of a toasting-fork. The scene would now have been in the richest degree ludi crous, had it not been alarming. There was the first voyager jerking and working about under water like some huge porpoise playing at " blind hookey," vainly struggling to got his nose above water; while the second, sub- timely unconscious of his companion's danger, sus pended by his arms from the chain, with the water up to his middle, was singing out, " Go it, Jack; go it, my boy! hurrah!" to a man who cert a inly appeared going much faster than he liked to a place for which he had evidently no inclination. Happily the ferryman per ceived their peril just as the boat had touched the Wilford shore, and, without waiting to discharge his cargo, put about the helm, hurried to the rescue, an i was in time. Another minute and the formost tra yeller would, perhaps, have been in eternity; when hunted into the boat, staring like a galvanized porcu- Pine, ho still clung to the chain convulsively, mid some minutes elapsed before his hands relinquished their tenacious hold. His companion in adversity was hauled aboard with not much further inconvenience than having the truth pretty emphatically impressed upon his memory, viz., that those who begin by taking too much beer sometimes end by getting too much water.— Noitingham Review. POOR RELIEF (ENGLAND ANDWALES).—According to official returns just published the total amount for in-door maintenance of the poor in the 606 unions of England and \Vales was for the half-year ending Michaelmas, 1549, 378,1681., while for that ending Michaelmas, 1850, it was 310,066/. The out-door relief for the same periods amounted respectively to 1,468,6901. and 1,337,6461. The total decrease in both kinds of relief, comparing the two periods together, is 197,1461., or 10.7 per cent. The total number of poor re lieved ou the Ist of January, 1850, was 931,328 ; on the first day of the present year it was 862,749. In regard to the counties of Cambridge, Hereford, Lincoln, Monmouth, Rut land, Salop, Anglesea, Brecon, Carnarvon, Merioneth, Mont gomery and Radnor, there is exhibited an increase of paupers amounting to a total of 2,604; in all the other counties a decrease is shown amounting to 71,183. Thus the general decrease, after deducting the increase, is 68,579. The total number of adult able- bodied poor relieved witkin doors on the Ist of January, 1850, was 26,151; on the Ist of January, 1851, it was 23,322. The numbers of the same class of poor receiving out-door relief on the Ist of January, 1850, were 155,008, of whom 54,000 were widows; on the same day in 1831 they were 131,203, of whom 50,600 were widows. The total general decrease in this class of paupers is 26,634, after deducting the increase in the counties of Monmouth, Salop, Anglesea, Brecon, Merioneth, Montgomery, and Rad nor, amounting to 738. LIEUTENANT-GOVERNORSIIIP OF ADDISCOMBE.- Lieut.-Colonel F. Abbott, C. 8., late of the Bengal Engineers, has been appointed Lieutenant-Governor of the East India Company's Seminary at Addiscombe. Lieut.-Colonel Abbott had served many years in India, and was particularly men tioned for his services in the Sutlej campaign of 1845-6. In consequence of the inconvenience which has been occasioned through the number of persons visiting the model of the Central Cattle Market, which has been placed at the corner of Cheapside, the association have felt it neces sary to limit the privilege of admission to holders of tickets, which, however, can easily be obtained from any of the com mittee—Mr. Effingham Wilson, Royal Exchange; Mr. Sweeting, Cheapside; and booksellers at the West-end. The public generally will be admitted gratuitously at other hours. LANCASHIRE AND YORKSIAIRE RAILWAY —lt is expected that the Lancashire and Yorkshire dividend at their forthcoming meeting will be 2 per ceat. per annum. This, besides leaving a reserve to meet the claims of the holders of fifth shares (should the decision on the question pending in a court of law be adverse to the company), will leave a very large surplus to be carried to the replacement fund.
