Capital--509,0 301 . (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office era—Moderate and equitable Mates 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 Insuranc e a g ainst Loss by Fire has great, that, the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted en, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the tree 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 Ofilee will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, from time to time, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each css 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 Firo are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

The distinctive feature of this Company consists in the sufficiency of ONE PAYMENT to cover an Assurance for the WHOLE OF LIFE. The first is the only expense and trouble, there being no annual re nova lof premium. By granting Assurances to Passengers only, and excluding all those persons in the employ of Railway Companies or Contractors among whom the heavier risks occur, the Directors of this Com pany are enabled to issue Policies at a lower rate of premium than is offered by any existing Company. Upon proof being given that a party assured has met with his death by railway accident, the Company will pay to his representa tives the full amount of his Policy. If the accident shall result in personal injury only, the Company will pay to the assured a fair compensation for such injury. Assurers have the option of travelling in c arria g es of any class, and on any railway in the United Kingdom.

CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, 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 2001. —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 office. , generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1849, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve mouths preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 65. Sixteen Policies lapsed, re presenting 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums. Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s. 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. 1 is. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,9911. 155. 11d. for to the extent of 1 7, 7001 ., Since last meeting loans w ere applied but 1,1831. 11s. 10d. only was advancedi The Directors were also highly gratifed 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 rEtang, 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 f Paris, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyon s, and 3fonseigneur Paris's o , 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.

ASYNOPSIS OF A SYSTE M . The " Times" newspaper of the 9th of April, in an able arti cle on the sanitary condition of society, says—" That it can no longer be said that the working Englishman is ill clothed." The writer is convinced, as must be everybody on observation, that a complete change has taken place within the last few years in this respect—a change whose origin is easily demonstrable, on an impartial review of HYAM and Co.'s operations. The proprietors have already argued and proved their priority in connexion with that system which has done so much for the commu nity at large, as every candid statist has seen and acknowledged. When HYAM and Co. projected their first undertaking many years ago, and hazarded a large capital in bringing into operation an en tirely new order of things, they found the tailoring trade in the posses sion and under the control of private speculators, who found the high prices of the few sufficient for their own personal consideration. Now, however advantageous and lucrative this system of things may have proved to those who practised it, it was undoubtedly, most inimical to the interests of the public at large ; confining, as it did, the bene fits of good eothing to the possessors of plentiful purses. HYAM and Co , on carefully weighing this state of things, resolved on starting a system of cheapness, assured that an adequate compen sation would be realised in what they would term • " THE MONEY OF THE MANY." Such an immense redtiction did HYAM and Co. make in the old exorbitant profits, that the practicability of the system was for a con siderable time rogarded as a matter of doubt ; but the money of the many was secured, and the money of the many, as anticipated, re moved every stumbling-block, and brought about a successful work ing of the system. Let it not be understood, however, that cheap ness was the only feature in lIYAM and Co.'s new system. It woull have been very easy for the proprietors to have accommodated mat ters by manufacturing inferior materials, and by employing second rate cutters and workmen. But the contrary of this was the case. while the r trading-glass was low in point of price, it was high with reference to those essential particulars — FASHION AND QUALITY. The money of the many, which enabled them to sell at a moderate rate, enabled them, also, to buy the best materials, and to employ the best workmen. The interests of all classes had never before been assimilated in the tailoring trade ; an invidious distinction was in variably made, and if a person, not happily situated in a pecuniary sense, desired an article of dress, he was insulted by being presented with a perfectly different design in cut and make. But HYAM and Co. discarded such practices, and convinced the public that first-rate articles of dress could be sold for charges which appeared at one time a very doubtful novelty. Such was the system of ItYAM and Co., a system which Great Britain at large has recognised in the ost satisfactory manner ; and hence that improved appearance in clothing to which the first jour , nal in the world has alluded. True, indeed, it is, that an improvement in this respect is ma. nifest. The Ten Establishments f lITIM and Co. in the most-popular and populous towns in England, Ireland, and Scotland, and a 550,0601. capital are not employed without effect. From thousands and hundreds of thousands do HYAM and Co. meet with support; by all classes of the community are their arti cles of attire adopted, and in every direction a re the proprietors' fashions traceable; nor can HYAM and Co. (while they feel grateful for such results) refrain from some degree of self-congratulation at thus being the projectors and promoters of a system which has pro duced so evident an improvement, in one feature at least, of the sani tary condition of the British public.

STOCK EXCHANGE. —The Railway Market continues un satisfactory ; and, so far as London is concerned, it is inferred that speculation has been considerably damped by the recent high charges of interest for continuations. To-day business was no better than it has been for some days past. The market was extremelely inactive. The only transaction we heard of as effrcted on 'Change was Midland (Birmingham and Derby ), 36 ; but other sales were made in private, of which no report was made. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT• William Griffin, a young man of respectable appearance, surrendered to take his trial upon a charge of assaulting Maria Palmer, Mr. Hudill'estone conducted the prosecution on behalf of the South-Ea,stern:RailWay Company ; Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Robinson appeared for the defendant. The Learned Coinasele in opening the case, said that the directors of the South-Eastern Railway had felt it their duty to institute this prosecution on account of the assault im puted to the defendant having been committed upon a person in humble circumstances, who was at the time a traveller in one of their trains. They felt that a person in such a posi tion was entitled to receive protection from every description of insult and annoyance; and upon the facts coming to their knowledge they considered it their duty to take care that the matter should be investigated by a jury. The particulars of the case having been given in evidence, Mr. Ileensemeirc, in addressing the jury for the defendant, said he would not attempt to deny that the company had only perforated their duty in bringing forward the present charge; but at the same time he ha I great confidence that the jury•would not convict a young man who, ho should show them, had up to this time borne an unimpeachable character, and for ever destroy his reputation, upon the evi dence that had been laid before them. Several highly respectable witnesses were then examined,, all of whom described the defendant as being entitled to the character of a well-conducted respectable young man. _• The jury stopped the Learned Recorder as he was about to BUM up, and said they were unanimously of opinion that ti3.o charge had not been made out; and they therefore returned a verdict of Not Guilty. The RECORDER remarked that although the jury had cone to this conclusion, there was no doubt that it was a very. proper matter to be inquired into. Mr. lItiDDLESTONE said that, upon the company b e irg Ac quainted with the facts, they felt that they had no alternative but to institute a prosecution. a, A atn 9 AN 13 , 1851, . . Mr. BALLANTINE said_ he did not, at all complain of the course that had been pursued. On the. contrary, he thought the company had done no more than their - dUty. The defendant-was-then discharged. George Pearson Barrett, 40;end Enoch Pearson Barrett, 37, were indiCted for stealing a truss of gOods, the property of the London; Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company, and Robert Abbott, 29, who surrendered to take .his trial, was indicted for feloniously receiving a portion of the property, knowing it to have been stolen.. ' Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Buddlestone conducted: the prose cution. The prisoners were severally defended by Mr. O'Brien, Mr. Parnell, and Mr. Woollett. The circumstances of the case .were, reported at the last • session, when the two Barretts were convicted of an offence oLa similar character. The evidence went. 'to show that Enoch Barrett was in' the service of the London and Brighton Railway Company, and he was stationed as switchman at the Bricklayers' Arms junction, and there was very little doubt that he and his brother George had been concerned in a very extensive system of plundering goods trains. Abbott., it appeared. was brother-in-law to the other prisoners. and resided at Newport Pagnell. and upon the officer searching his house, he found a watch and other articles the produc&ot a robbery that had been committed upon the railway in 1849, and the whole of which he subsequently admitted he had received from the prisoner George Barrett. The jury found all the prisoners Guilty of feloniously re ceiving the property. but recommended Abbott to the merci ful consideration of the Court. Judgment was deferred. THE MURDER' OF THE POLICEMAN 11V VAUXHALL-WALK. Yesterday evening the inquiry into the circumstances con nected with this horrible murder, which was adjourned for the purpose of affording time for a post-mortem examinatiofi of the deceased, was resumed before Mr. Payne, at Guy's. Hoepital. The room where the jury met for this purpose was exceed ingly small and inconvenient, and the foreman expressed his surprise to the coroner that in such an extensive establish ment, and one in which numerous inquests were heldo more commodious place could not have been afforded them for one eveniog. The CORONER, after consulting for some time with the in spector who has the case in hand, said that he did not think he would find it necessary to detain the jury upon this occa sion. From what lie had heard from the inspector, he be lieved he would best consult the ends of justice by adjourning the inquiry for a few days longer. Before he did so he should wish to hear the evidence of the house surgeon, Mr.W. Rhys, who had made the post-mortem examination. Mr. W. Rhys said he had made the post-mortem examina tion as directed, but nothing he had noticed had altered his original opinion—namely, that death resulted from extensive injuries to the head. That was the only conclusion he could arrive at after a most careful investigation of the injuries which the deceased had sustained. [Though it did not come out in the evidenceyesterday, we may state that the post - mortem examination 'Which was made immediately after the termination of the inquiry on Tuesday last, showed that all the organt of the body were in a perfectly healthy condition. Upon the scalp were several large lacerated woueds, corresponding to which were simple, compound, and comminuted fractures of the skull, extending across the whole of the frontal and spheroid bones. The temporal muscles were completely crushed; the dura mater and brain lacerated, and a large quantity of extravasated blood was found upon both hemispheres of the brain. In fact, hardly a single internal portion of the head had escaped destruction.] The evidence of some of the witnesses was then read over to them, at the conclusion of which, The Cortoerga expressed a desire to see the stones which were picked up on the spot where the man was murdered. Police-constable Head accordingly produced them, and called the attention of the coroner to certain discolourations upon one, which looked like dried blood; whereupon Mr. W. Rhys was recalled, and stated, in reply to a ques tion from the coroner, that he did not believe the stains were caused by human blood, or blood at all. He thought it was entirely owing to the '° glaze" having been knocked off, and some slight mineral discolouration taken place, but he would examine it more closely if it was thought necessary. The CORONER having expressed a wish to that effect, Mr. Rhys took away one of the stones, and shortly returned, stating that though the spots which had been indicated were not mineral stains, and wiped away, leaving a slight reddish mark upon white blotting paper, still the result was not sufficiently decisive to enable him to declare it blood. The CORONER then said, he understood that the Commit signers of Police had taken up the matter with that spirit which they generally showed, and were bound to show, upon this occasion, when one of their men had been killed. He thought it would not be desirable to carry . the case be fore the present sessions, as there was not sufficient evidence collected to enable them to prosecute. As the magistrate would no doubt remand the prisoners again, he thought it would be better if they met some time next week, as by that period much important evidence would be forthcoming. The inquiry was then adjourned to Monday next, at two o'clock. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Those who have advocated and supported that most excel. lent measure of the Admiralty, suggested by Admiral Dun das, for the improvement of the condition of the seamen o: the navy, and increasing thereby the efficiency of the service in giving the men more pay, more provisions, and less grog, will be truly gratified to hear of the admirable effect it has produced on the largest body of men collected under the commend of a flag officer. During the quarter ended on the Ist of April last, scarcely any corporal punishment took place amongst a fcrce of 6,000. Rear-Admiral H. M. Dixon, the commander-in-chief at Queenstown, has shifted his flag from the Ajax, 60, screw ship, Captain Quin, to the Advice steam tender; and the Ajax, with the Hogue, 60, screw-ship, Captain Macdougall, left Queenstown on Saturday for Spithead, to be paid wages, and remain till further orders. Lieutenant Ashley La Touche (1840) has been appointed agent for mails in a contract steam-vessel. Caradoc steam-pidiaet, Lieut. Commander Derriman, ar rived at Devonport on Friday evening, to be paid advance and receive final orders for Mediterranean. Alert, 8, was taken into No 5 Lock at Devonport on Sa• turday, to be broken up. Seagull, 6, and Spider, 6, will both be paid off at Devonport to-day. Hamoaze lighter, Wood, master, sailed from Devon port on Saturday, with stores for Cork; from thence she will proceed to Liverpool to examine and repair some moorings. Magicienne, steam-sloop, at Devonport, is to have another trial under sail. Mr. Brown, second-master attendant, and party, who navigated the Greenock to Woolwich, and who returned in the Cardoc, are to perform that duty forthwith. PLYMOUTH, MAY _ 10.—Her Majesty's ship Caledonia, 120, Captain T. W. Carter, received orders at Malta on the 25th of April to sail on the 801 h for this port, to be paid off. The store-ship Tyne, Master-Commander Peter Welling ton, from Deptford, arrived this morning, and will sail in about a week with stores for the Brazils. The New Liverpool, freight-ship, sailed yesterday with troops for Halifax. The steam-vessel Avon sailed this morning with supernu meraries for the Prince Regent at Portsmouth ; the Caradoc came is to-day, from Woolwich, for coal and advance of wages, and will sail on Monday for the Mediterranean on mail service; and the Magicienne will next week cruise in the Channel to try her rate of sailing. The dockyard battalion commence drill for the season on Saturday next, the 17th instant. SEABORNE MAILS.

ALBAN'S BRIBERY C O MMISSION. —The Bill for appointing C omm i ss i one rs to inquire into the existence of bribery in the borough of St. Alban's, prepared and brought in by Mr. Ellice and Mr. 11. Stuart, recites that it is expe dient to appoint such Commissioners, with a secretary and clerks, as there is reason to believe that the practice of bribery at elections of M embers to serve in Parliament has long prevailed in St. Albans, and that bribery to a great ex tent has been systematically committed there at the last election; that great di fficulty has been hitherto experienced in obtaining complete proof of this systtn of bribery, by reason of the contrivances of certain parties, more or le a full ss im plicated in the sa me ; uir that it would tend to insure discovery of it if an inqy were , made on the spot by au thorized Commissioners. The Commissi on ers are to report fro time peetrosntniisneatdo pPaaprelirasm. ent, and are to have po w e r to Persona n send imp li ca ted in bribery w ho may be exa mined, and who make a faithful di sc o v er y , are to be indemnified fromminal prosecutions. It is pro posed that each Commissioner shall receive five guineas a day, over and above travelling and other expenses.

The person who made the application alleged that I had no bite rezt in the " Post Office London Directory," which, he asserted, be longed to another person, named " Kelly." The statement is untrue : —The copyright of the " Post Office Di rectory" was assigned to me in the year 1836, since which time the work has remained mine, no other person having at any time bad any property in it. The purpose of the misrepresentation is suffi ciently obvious, and no reliance should be placed on any statements emanating from the same source. FR,EDERIC KELLY. General Post Office.

T" ADVENT OF INDUSTRY, 1851. now few of the visitors of t and he Grt Industrial Exhibition will consider how many hearth and heads and limbs have ached to produce the mineral, mechanical, and artistical wonders that now grace the Crystal Palace ; and, besides those triumphs of mankind, now many thousands of men, equally deserving of success, have, from as many different causes, altogether failed to complete the works upon which their whole energies have been expended for months perhaps their whole means exhausted ! The Crystal Palace contains the result of immense talent and industry; but the wonders there accumulated are also the results of cares and anxieties un paralleled in the history of art, manufactures, and commerce. Ought it not to teach our wealthy classes an important lesson ? Art, science, and manufactures, unpatronised and unprotected, would progress but slowly, if at all ; but when the nobility and gentry see at one view the wonders that can be achieved under the fostering mwahltincanmabye el care of those who can afford it , there is some hope that the disposi tion to encourage thp ingenuity andapnetrisceveexraanm c p E le f o be universally promoted by this gig achieved. He who patronises industry is a public benefactor. It was this consideration that induced Mestrs. E. MOSES and sox to enter at once upon a system which enabled them to employ hun dreds of excellent industrious workmen where Others would only employ tens. Is must be obvious to all reasoning mcn that under the old system of large profits he who loo ks only to himself might clear as much out of ten men's labour as Messrs. E. MOSES and SON can, with their limited profits, out of the labour of a hundred. Ban ut they have the satisfaction to know that t he more capital they c use, ead the less profit they exact, the more they can pa tronise the industry of the country, by finding men constant work and instant payment for their labour, while by these mea n s they produce an article atnearly half the usual, and far better at that price. than has ever been produced before. But the consequence of employing a large capital and numbers of people does not end in the mere fact of low prices; for these very low prices for good clothing enable thou sands to dress respectably who could not do so were the old prices prevailing. Until Messrs. E. MOSES and SON established their system of trading it was impossible t) obtain good cheap clothing ; now the poorest of the labouring classes can dress in strong andgood clothing according to their circumstances. All classes can dress well—all classes ought to dress well. It is worth the consideration of the wealthy, whether they ought not to save half the cost of their own dress and their servants' livery, if it were only for the oppor tunity of dispensing the amount in benevolence. Messrs. E. MO3ES and SON invite all classes to see their enormous STOCK of DRESS, appropriate for everybody. Buy or not buy, no matter, when they have seen they will believe in the beauty and extent of a stock and. an establishment to which it is difficult, if not impossible, to do justice by description. A handsome Almanac, for the year 1851, can be had gratis, on application.

The Moniteur publishes a decree, appointing Gene ral PELISUER Governor-General ad interim of Al geria, in the place of General D'HAurroun , whose mission has toriainated. This is a cool way of getting rid of a Lunn who has ceased to be useful. The fate of General D'lTauTrouL will not increase the ardour of the supporters of M. Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE. The partisans of the Elyse& are evidently alarmed et` the blunt manner in which Dr. VnaoN in the Constitutionnel occasionally blurts out the truth. The Moniteur du Soir has the following paragraph on the article from the Constitutionnel which we published yesterday, and which has aroused the ire of the Legi timatists and Orleanists. " Every one knows that M. Veron directs his jour nal according to his own fancy, and at present in no way expresses the ides of the Government. Why, therefore, does the Opposition persist in rendering the ministers and the President of the Repnbli.: retipao.alo for the eccentricities of the Constitutionnel." The gunmakers at Liege, who have recently suf fered much from want of employment, are about to b 3 actively engaged, in consequence of orders from foreign powers, One house alone has received an order to make 50 ; 000 muskets for the Russian Go vernment. The last of the Paris races took place in the Champ de Mars yesterday. Just before the hour fixed for the commencement of business, there was a heavy fall of rain, which deterred a vast number of persons from attending; but, as the weather became fine af terwards, a considerable crowd gradually assembled, and before the races were over nearly the whole of the course was lined with spectators. Within the ropes there was a tolerable show of carriages, though it was not equal to what is witnessed on more favourable occasions. The stands were about two-thirds full, but there were very few ladies in them. The mem bers of the Jockey Club and other sporting charac ters, as usual, mustered in full force. M. DE FALLOUX appeared in the /V,sernbly on Saturday. The Bourse was gloomy, and a decided tendency to a fall in prices was manifested. The Five plir Cents. opensd at 90f. 60c., rose to 90f. 750., but fell subsequently to 901. 30c., at which price they closed. The Three per Cents. closed at 56f.

The following was the Speech of the PRESI DENT to the Council : " Gentlemen,—The Prussian Chambere have arrived at the close of their second regular session, which has occupied more than four mcnths of your continued activity. " The commencement of your deliberations fell in an nitated and critical period. Against threatening dangers the collective military force of the kingdom was called out, on a scale in Which it bad never been sum moned before, and with a remit that filled the Prussian people with the coneciousness of their own strength and commanded the respect of foreign nations. In the mean time circumstances arose under which his Majesty's Go vernment believed, after due and conscientious conside ration, they could avoid the conflict with States of the same German race. But it was natural that in the state of feeling in the country other views of the posi tion of affairs would not remain without expression durieg your debates. " Still the patriotism of both Chambers avoided a con flict which would only have damaged the position of Prussia externally, and injured her internal development —a conflict which none but the enemies of Prussia could have regarded with hope. " With zeal you have applied to your high mission, and by the fruits of your activity earned new claims to the thanks of the nation. " Thirty-four Bills, after going through the constitu tional discussion in both Chambers, have been laid be fore the Government, and in part, after receiving the Rol al sanction, have been published in the collection of laws. "You have the satisfaction of knowing that anew penal code, which has been in preparation for many years to supply a pressing deficiency, owes its completion to your exertions. " By your assent to the law on a class and classified income-tax, you have maintained the means of meeting the increased demands on the expenditure:of the State, by which the le,a wealthy classes of the population are nut only spared an increase of taxation, but in part have had the burdens on them even much lightened. "The State expenditure for the year 1851 has been fixed, end by granting u credit of 11,500,000 thalers you have given the Government the means of covering the s oc3asiorsed by calling ou t the a rray, which have expense not eeu incurred without m;ny and purrmaiont ,advan vantages fur the military power. " If some draughts of laws have not been completed in this session, yet their discussion, tne many proposals from the Chambers therneeh:es, end the petitials pre sented to them, have furnished the Government with materials which, you may bo assured, will receive the most careful c onsideration. " By the decisions ycu have come to on the Bills laid before you, you have given the Government the assur ance that it is, in essential points, in accordance with the Legislative bodies of the nation. It will be the care of th Governent to preserve and increase this accord by ae vigorous yet careful execution of the laws you have passed. " The retrospect of the session is thus calculated to confirm the assurance that the old Prussian spirit is still powerful in the forms which, under your co-operation, have become the Constitution of the country, and that the chief condition of the development of Prussia on its historical basis has remained unaffected by the confusions of the time. " The enemies of this development, who are the ene mies of divine and human order in general, certainly res t as little as the passion s b y which they are agitated. But revolution, wherever and under whatever form it may appear, will find Prussia armed and the Govern ment watchful and firm. " The threatening attitude of this enemy, irrespective of other grounds, renders it the imperativej duty of all the German Governments ner to leave Gerinar!l without a central organ, generally recognised both svithin Germany itself and by foreign powers. retur n to " Whether the German Governments now e nd, or the ferns o f the older Constitution of the B whether the plans, by no means abandoned, 9f a . new organization of that Constitution, will b e realized in f& practicable form, the independent development of Prussia shall not thereby be in " any way endang ered. But the true and silent cqui rente e , for a happy and g l o rious future for our country, its political and material welfare, its increasinc , internal prosperity, and its influ ence and power abroad, you will, wan his Majesty's Government, find in the unwearied. holding. together, and co-operation of all those who unite in truth and faith under the motto of a g reat , and glorious era--' With God for King and Fatherla nd ' The PRESIDENT then declared, in the name of the KING, that the session was closed.

BRITISH AND FOREIGN SCHOOL SOCIETY.—The forty-sixth annual meeting of the supporters of this institu tion was held yesterday morning at the society's premises, Borough-road ; Lord J. Russell in the chair. Previous to the public meeting the pupils were examined in the various branches of education pursued in the schools, and acquitted themselves in a highly creditable manner. The room was densely crowded, several hundreds being refused admission from want of sufficient accommodation. The annual report stated the society to be in circumstances highly favourable to its prosperity and permanence. The annual subscriptions had greatly increased during the year, and the model schools were full and efficient.

JAMES'S THEATRE. • FRENCH PLAYS. ~ - , Scribe's most interesting play, Une was`perfOrmed for the first time in this country at the St. James's last evening, and its success was complete. It is in fiVe sets, and combines the interest of the melodrama with the high brbed ine, polish, vivacity, and sparkling wit of. high comedy. The story of the piece is one of„those simple themes, a mere situation in fact,- in - which Bl..Scrille, levet fe 'take from the fife of the salons, and which,, under..his. skilful management Of half a dozen dramatis person, seems to expand, as if by its own force, into a perfect, comedy. Emmeric d'Alb r et , A.YonOg and successful composer, has, many good gifts and a., brilliant prospect ,before , him—the worthiest of uncles, the prettiest of cousins-,a love' for the latter, which she very decidedly returns-every possibility of a match which seems sure .to •make' his happiness. But he wears achaio of which he is heartily tired, yet which he caunpt break. When he came first to Paris he was without friends, interest, or experierice—withOut anything, in fact, but genius and ambition. He rotted a guardian-angel in Madame de St. Geran. In . pure pity this lady, by giving the young musician that great .necessity to success; oppor tunity, opened to him the, doors of fortune and•of tame. He repaid the service with adoration, and found his angel mortal. Hence a crowd of miseries which at once wolfish and perplex his friend . Hector: Ballandard, avotte de premiere instance, to whom the life of ,the salons had seemed from afar the brightest of .prospects. The in teeeet. the piece, evolved with all the skill of Scribe, turns on the struggles of Enuneric . with . a tie which honour and interest tAike make him anxious to break, on the efforts of Madame de St. Geran to prolong her power, and on the indefatigable zeal and wonderful -perplexities of Hector Bal landerd, who wets as the never-failingescapegoat of his friend, gaining thereby the character of the gayest of deceivers, in of that of the purest of aVottes. The most remarkable agent, however, in the deliverance of Einmeric, is no less a I,ersonage . than Monsieur de St. Geren, the mildest and most musical of fatal duellists, the most generous and loyal of deceived husbaudt. He hears the story of the ybstacle.. through Ballandard, . without,, for a moment, suspecting that the lady .in the case is his own wife- Uaving a real kindness .or the . young musician, being, moreover, godfather to tile Pretty. Aline, and posses- Stag ancient claims en the grAtitnde, of., the worthy patent, he determines on making the match between the cousins, and, in doing soi unconsciously removes the prin cipal bar to a cherished object, that of winning the love of his once neglected and estranged wife. From these strange relations of the several personages—the happy unsuspe c ti n g girl—the ardent and passionate woman—the frank and loyal - husband, never hitting on the truth—the weak vacillating lover,- and the most simple-hearted. zealous, and astute of convenient friends and never-failing avows, springs such a stream of happy perplexities as only Scribe can produce and manage, ending, of course in the marriage of the cousins being made practicable by Madame St. Geran 's resignation of her power. To the perfect acting of this witty drama too much praise cannot be given. Monsieur Regnier's Hector Ballamiard is ae most entire of indivi dualities. His listening is as good as his speaking—his per plexity is the most comical—his zeal the heartiest —his kindliness the most real in the world. Monsieur Lafont was admirably natural and gentlemanlike as Mons. de St. G erten ; while Madlle. St. Marc was so full of grace, so arch and bewitching, as Aline, that we felt really indignant at seeing a lover who des9rved so little, find, at the end of all Lis scrapes, inch happiness in store for him. Maths. Ju dith played with much judgment in the not very pleasant put of Louise, or Madame de St. Geran. The preliminary piece was the amusing trifle, Le Roman d'une Heurei in which the graceful and striking figure of Mdlle. Faivre Ap peared to great advantage as the Young Widow. STRAND TITEA.TRE. A two act farce from the pen of Mr. Robert Brougliwas produced last night at this theatre, under the title of Kensington Gardens. It was hailed with peals of laughter throughout, and proved a decided hit. A fast young man. (Mr. A. Davies), in amusing himself by rather impertinently addressing every petticoat he encounters in the gardens, is at last invited by a Member of Parliament's wife to drive home to dinner, as she can by no other means get rid of his importunities. Here to his horror he finds a large party assembled, to whose faces he is mercilessly quizzed by the lady of the mansion (Mrs. Seymour), and introduced to each guest as " the gentleman with whom she has not the honour of being acquainted." Among others, how ever, he finds her niece, his old flame (Miss E. Romer), with whom he is, of course, at length made happy, but not until after some highly ludicrous passages of arms with the other personages, of whom the principal are a duelling old Colonel.(Mr. Tilbury), a snobby gent. (Mr. Rogers), and a pert waiting-maid (Miss Marshall). Had the principal character been in the hands of a good light comedian the cast might have been pro nounced perfect; as it was the piece went off admirably. Mr. Rogers, in his small part, was delicious. He is a thorough artist in his line; indeed he and Mr. Tilbury un derstand the mystery of " dressing" a character as well as any actors en the boards. The entire piece is replete with fun, and on the fall of the curtain the honour of a recall was accorded to all the dramatis psi sour, and the author crossed the Not-lights amidst vehement plaudits. The piece was very well mounted and appointed. The house ITILi excellently attended, and the good humour of the audi ence unbounded. (From the Daily News.) Kensington Gardens—a topic of the day just now-- were last evening made the subject of a sparkling little comedy, in two acts, by Mr. Robert Brough. The fun is based upon the lady-hunting propensities of a gentleman, who afterwards meets in a drawing-room the young ladies he has annoyed in the gardens. Mrs. Seymour, as a digni fied married lady, and Miss Marshall, as a pert waiting woman, acted well. The piece was quite successful, and was performed to a full house. Mr. Robert Brough, at its con:elu sion, was called upon to bow his acknowledgments before the curtain. SURREY THEATRE, Last evening a new domestic drama of that peculiar class which has long found favour amongst the admirers of the non-legitimate, was produced here under the un usually modest title of Michaelmas Day. The period of the play is fixed a hundred years ago, nd the action occurs in the vicinity of Carlisle. The principal characters are an old miser, his daughter, her accepted suitor, a rejected. lover, a " village scam,' and an officer of the law. These various personages are brought together under cir cumstances which lead to the impression that they are sufficiently acquainted with each other's peculiarities as to render it somewhat difficult for any very violent contest to arise amongst them. Nevertheless, such is the magic power exercised by the dramatist, that a murder is committed by one of the fraternity. and the murderer is supposod to be the accepted lover of the victim's daugh ter. Jealousy has been the cause of this accusation, and a prison the effect of it. The real culprit, of course, remains unknown until the conclusion of the piece, whilst the in nocent lover, who is made to answer for the charge, is exposed to sundry trials of patience and endura actory ter nce, which are sufficient to drown all h i s hopes of a satisf mination to his attachment. The scenes of love and re venge which take place in the meantime are necessarily of the most distressing character, but in the end the virtuous are rewarded, and the vicious very properly punished, by command of the law, and to the satisfaction of the audience. The serious portion of the piece is, as usual, relieved by the exploits of buffoons, who appear ever and anon for the purpose of raising a laugh, often at the expense of com mon sense, but still to the delight of the contented occupants o f pit and gallery. The drama was very creditably repre sented, and, as the production of a young writer, it may be s aid to give some promise, inasmuch as its chief merit does not lie in prolonged dialogue, but in a satisfactory attempt at dramatic action. The play was quite successful, although the applause at the conclusion was not of that vehement character which marks an undoubted triumph at this the atre. As to the title—Michaelmas Day—it has nothing whatever to do with the piece, which migut just as apuopri ately be called " Good Friday" or " Shrove Tuesday. ~~ ;~ ~~ rir HE STALLS in the GREAT EXHIBITION,_IL together with every useful article., ILLUSTRATED and DE SCRII3E D in the EXPOSITOR._ the only weekly recorder of new .
