The " Times" newspaper of the 9th of April, hi an able art' cle en 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 ar4ued and pr wed :heir priority in connexion with tit it system which has done so 'ouch for the commu nity at large, as every candid st atist has seen an ! in•knowledged. When iiyAlt and Co. projected their first undertaking many years ago, and hazarded a large capital in b p ri e n c ::: ors i g n , t wt o rah o od p:ration an en tirely new order of things,they found the tailoring foundth e thepo posses sion and under the control of private s Prices of the few sufficient for their . own personal w e a o s i u_ndou g. iitLa i l ty c , nsideration. Now, however advantageous and lucrative this system of things may have did,m os most h is e n h m e i n c e a_i proved to those who practised it, it to the interests of the public at large ; fits of good clothing to the possessors of p entilui p ur „ ee. IHYAMand Co , on carefully weighingthis a state of thi ngs, reaolved on starting a system of cheapness, assured w term tan ad equate comp., sation would be realised in what they would that " THE MONEY OF THE MANY." Such an immense reduction did HYAM and Co. make in the old exorbitant profits, that the practicability of the system was for a con siderable time regarded as a matter of doubt but the money or th e Many was secured, and the money of the many, as anticipated, re moved every stumbling-block, and brought about a successful work bag of the system. Let it not be understood, however. that cheap.. mess was the only feature in lIYAM and Co.'s it w system. It would have been very easy for the proprietors to have accommodatal mat tersm employingwas the e o a n a. by manufacturing inferior materials, and by rate cutters and workmen. B ut the contrary of tht s While their trading-glass wa' low in pout 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 bad never before been assimilated in the tailoring trade ; an invidiou d i st i nc tion was ht in r variably made, and if a person, not happily situate d in a pecun led _ sense, desired an article of dress, he was insulted by presen d With a perfectly different &sign in cut and make. But HYAM and Co. discarded such practices, and convinced the public that arst-rate articles of dress could be sold for charges which appeared at one time a very doubtful novelty. Such was the system of HYAM and Co., a system which Great Britain at large has recognised in the most satis'actory 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 (1 HTAM and Co. in the most popular and populous towns in England, Ireland, and Scotland, and a 550.0u01. capital are not em: toyed 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 are the proprietors' fashions traceable; nor can lIYAM 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- Athol so evident an improvement, in one feature at least, of the sani tary condition of the British public.

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,000/. (Incorporated under 7 and S Vict., cap. 110.) The leading, principles of this Office ars—Moderate and equitable Rates or Premium for each class of rist—:annual division of Profits. ..... The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion rremium 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 round by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount 01 annual Premiums received by each. It is of the higne4t importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an aporoximatiou 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 ?roached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted cn, 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 Aver - Igo, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office 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 class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly 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. F a rming Stock insured. at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

ADVENT •OF INDUSTRY, 1851. How few of the vis 7 tors of the Great 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 Police ; and, besides those triumphs of mankind, row 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 unparalleled in tke 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 care of those who can afford it, there is some hope that the disposi tion to encourage the ingenuity and perseverance of mankind may be universally promoted by this gigantic example of what can be achieved. He who patronises industry is a public benefactor. It was this consideration that induced Messrs. E. MOSES and SON enter at once upon a system which enabled them to employ hun to dreds of excellent industrious workmen where others would only employ tens. Is must be obvious to all reasoning men that under the old system of large profits he who looks 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. But they have the satisfaction to know that the more capital they can use, and the less profit they exact, the more they can patronise the industry of the country, by finding men constant work and instant payment for their labour, while by these means they produce an article at nearly 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 to obtain good cheap clothing ; now the poorest of the labouring classes can dress in strong and good clothing accordin,r to their circumstances. All classes can dress well—all classes aught to dress well. Itis 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. MOSES 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, 1r not impossible, to do justice by description.

The first performance this season of the chef d'cruvre not of Mozart only but of the lyrical drama, ii Don Giovanni, attracted one of the most crowded audiences of the season to her Majesty's Theatre last evening. The cast was the same as at the close of last season, when Madame Fiorentini, for the first time, sus tained the part of Donna Anna, and . by her excellent singing and acting, more than realized the expectations to which her previous performances had given rise. Last evening sheagein sustained this most ard uous character, and having now completely got over thetimidityfrom which every debutante must necessarily suffer, she was last night enabled to give full scope to her genius, and the conse quence was, that her Donna Anna was a perfect artistic triumph. Never have we heard the magnificent scena in which Donna Anna describes the atrocious conduct of Don Giovanni more energetically, more feelingly, more perfectly given. As a piece of vocalization it was fault less, as a piece of acting it was sublime. The audience were enthusiastic in their plaudits, and the high tone thus given to the character in the com mencement was kept up throughout. Madame Fioren tini has added immensely to her already high reputa tion as an artist by her performance of Donna Anna last evening. But what can we say of the bright, sparkling, vivacious, fascinating, exquisitely graceful Zerlina of Madame Sontag ? We can only quote Voltaire's eulogium of Racine, and say after each air, Exquisite ! Beautiful ! Perfect ! Ma dame Sontag loves and understands Mozart, and she threw her whole soul into the part of Zerlina. The " La ci darem" (with Coletti), the " Batti, batti," the " Vedrai Curino" were all rapturously encored, and her acting was as fascinating as her singing. Coletti's Don was a fine, manly piece of acting; he was in ex cellent voice, and rendered the music in a manner worthy of himself and of Mozart. Of the Leporello of Lablache it is a work of supererogation to speak; he was last night as great (in every sense of the word) as ever; he appears to have recovered entirely from his hoarseness, and was full of life, spirit, and humour. The Elvira of Madame Guiliani is the most effective on the stage, and she sung and acted last night delightfully. She is almost the only Elvira who can render the music of the part as it ought to be rendered that has appeared of late years. Calzolari was the Ottavio, and gave "Il mio tesoro" with great sweetness. In the ball-room scene Carlotta Grist and Amelia Ferraris lent their valuable aid, and danced the minuet with infinite grace. The choruses and orchestra were perfect. Taken as a whole we have never seen 11 Don Giovanni so effectively performed as it was last evening. The new Divertissement Les Cosmopolites which was originally produced in honour of the opening of the Chrystal Palace, was again performed last evening. It is one of the most brilliant of choerographic spectacles. The mixture of the various costumes produces an admi rable effect. It was much applauded.

THE SOAIERSETSHIRE STAKES, tic. TO TilE EDITOR OF THE SUN. was not very far out in my calculations on the Somersetshire Stakes; in Note No. 50 I remarked—" that the winner is certain to be one of the following . four: —Cloth worker, 5 yrs, 7st 9lb—Cheerful, 5 yrs, 7 st—The Ban, 3 yrs, sst 121b—Terpsichore, 3 yrs, 4st 811.. In my opinion, on the B th course, it is more than 7 to 4 against The Ban ; he is a good horse, and will most assuredly be first or second; but, for the absolute first" 1 selected Cheerful. The race was run at a good pace from end to end, and won, rather easily, by Terpsichore, with young Goater up, by two lengths; The Ban beating Cheerful the same distance for second place; Clothworker fourth, and the rest all but beaten off I Before starting The Ban was backed against the field; the race, however, verified my remarks that it was more than 7 to 4 against The Ban, on that course ; and also, that he would " most assuredly be first or second." Of course, he is of no use, as I remarked on Monday last, for the great event of Wednesday next. The latest accounts received connected with the Derby name the following lot as the starters for that event :—Hernandez (Nat), Constella tion (Templeman), Heartbreaker (Bartholomew or Butler), The Marlborough Buck (Whitehouse), Glenhawk (Docke ray), Telescope (probably Sly), Bonnie Dundee (Marlow), Midas (Norman), Tragedian (d), Ariosto, The I'rime Mi nister, The Ban (Pearl), Teddington (Marson), Theseus (S. Rogers), The Knight of the Garter (probably Holmes), Hip polytus (Sharp), Louis Napoleon (Prince), Newminster (d), Mountain Deer (d), Hungerforil (Fenn), The Black Doctor (Osborne), Lamartine (A. Day up, if not on Mr. Hill's horse), Colt by Tearaway (Simpson, I believe), Gholab Singh, Colt by Epirus—Enterprise, Azeth, Neasham, Eng land's Glory (Wintringham), and Buckingham (Kitchener), The jockeys' names may be incorrect in one or two in stances, but, for the most part, will be found to be quite right. Seven-eighths of the starters, according to the latest accounts, were doing unexceptionable work. The following is the lot from which the winner will spring, viz.:—Hernan dez, The Marlborough Buck, Bonnie Dundee, The Prime Minister, Teddington, Lamartine, and Heartbreaker. From this lot I should first discard Heartbreaker, Teddingion, Bonnie Dundee, and Lamartine, and stand on the other three to pull nay judgment through triumphantly, placing them thus : THE PRIME . 1 THE MARLBOROUGH BUCK 2 lIERNANDEZ 3 Teddington and Bonnie Dundee fourth and fifth; Lamartine and Heartbreaker the next two; Midas, Constellation, Neasham, and The Black Doctor foremost in the ruck. This, of course, is subject to such contingencies as health, &c., on the part of The Prime Minister ; if he should not be " the thing" on the day, then commend me to the Buck or Her nandez. the latter for choice, for the Derby victor. On Monday and Tuesday, after an inspection of the candidates at exercise on the Downs, I shall speak conclusively. The Derby betting is the same this morning as it was yesterday, at Bath. I am, Sir, yours, &c., THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF. May 16, 1851. GRAND LITERARY BANQUET AT S OYER'S SYMPOSIUM. Alexis Soyer is the most princely of Amphitryons. The grand idea which emanated from his fertile brain of inaugurating the opening of the Grand Symposium, by a banquet to the literati now assembled in London from all quarters of the globe, was yesterday practically developed, with a combination of magnificent liberality and exquisite artistic taste that adds a brilliant jewel to the diadem of culinary empire, which universal suffrage has placed upon the brow of the magnanimous Alexis. After a delighted ramble through the enchantments of the mansion and its grounds—the Temple of Danae—the Gallic Pavilion—the Bower of Ariadne—the Celestial Hall of Golden Lilies—the Glittering Rocaille of Eternal Snow—and all the beautiful produc tions of decorative genius which have stamped 'he name of Mr. Alfred Adams with imperishable cele brity, at half-past six the cheering sound of trumpets heralded the advent of a mighty joint—a " saddleback," carved from the carcase of a gigantic ox, and weighing seventy-seven stone—to the portals of the Baronial Hall. Then commenced a scene of festive elegance which can never fade from the memory of any who can boast of being one of the favoured guests of Soyer the Superb, on the memorable 15th of May, 1851. We can not summon courage to attempt a description of such a galaxy of epicurean blessings. Delicious tears, well ing from a heart which has for once, at least, been conscious of the joys of Paradise, would render impotent the effort. With genuine bro therly affection we commiserate and sympathise with those who were not of the elect. May the path of the peerless Soyer be ever illumined by the bounteous blessings of Allah! The presidential chair was occupied by the beloved host himself; and amongst those present were assembled, to do honour to foreign fellow-labourers, representatives of the Times, The Sun, Herald, Advertiser, Chronicle, Post, Globe, Daily News, Weekly News, Literary Gazette, Il lustrated :IVers, and various prints and periodicals too numerous to mention. The first toast was, of course, "The Queen," followed by "Prince Albert," " the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family," and " The Army and Navy," for which thanks were eloquently returned by the Hon. Captain Fitzmaurice and Captain Nicholls. The utmost enthusiasm was developed in the reception of the royal names, and that of the princely originator of the great Exhibition, was hailed with reiterated bursts of fervid cheering. The CHAIRMAN then gave the toast of the evening, " The British and Foreign Press," which was drunk with all the honours; and a demand of three cheers for the foreign visitors was responded to with the utmost cor diality. M. ACHILLE JunINA.L, in the absence of M. Jules Janin, who was vehemently called for to respond to the former portion of the toast, returned thanks in French on behalf of the foreign press. He looked upon the re presentatives of the English press as his brethren and fellow-labourers in the great cause of civilisation and improvement. The year 1851 would be ever celebra t ed in history—it was the year that had done away with tyrannies, and frontiers, and restrictions and distin: in he ctions e of class and country, and had united all n ationsh bond of brotherhood. Ile concluded by drinking "The English Press." thanks lir on b eh a lf ze of t o h f e E t h e e g i h h o rpnrie'nes Herald, returned Mr. SMITH then, in a highly complimentary speech; gave " The health of their worthy chairman, M. Soyer, pointing out the great benefits he had conferred upon the public by his enterprise and talents. The toast was drunk with the greatest enthusiasm. M. SOYER then rose amidst loud cheers, and said—lt is with deep and heartfelt satisfaction that I rise on the present occasion; that I thank the distinguished their tinguis presence; hedguests who have this day hono ured me with that I welcome you all cordially and sincerely to the Symposium. Still more grateful am I for your many kind wishes for the welfare and prosperity of this gi gantic establishment, to which, whatever its merits, I have devoted, -ny beat abilities. That those wishes will bo realised I do not for my part one moment doubt. My endeavours in the gastronomic art have been for so long a period so highly patronised in England, my adopted country, that I am sure that patronage will not cease to be bestowed now that I have engaged in more extended operations—now that like Caesar 1 have crossed the Ru bicon, and unfurled the banner of gaatronomy, not only to a notion, but to a world. Gentlemen, looking around this festive board, I feel how inadequate it will be to ex press my feelings. This however, I: can say,that were the Symposium to last a century, it weould he many, many years ere it would behold so brilliant and so fairy-like a scene as this—ere it would see gathered together in this and dotnhiao genius lhallso or magnificentlin nZionas._n(ue assemblage arhea of rS the And talent e nt to whom are we indebted f or th e opportunity and the great undertaking which so deeply influences the fortunes of the Symposium, tapos nztin,ang,d has indi s tinctly brought about this but to that calmly wise and un affectedly beneficent Prince the worthy mate c't Royalty—his Royal Highness Prime Albert. —(Ch eer k But for that Great Exhibition, which now soprp!i_ raises its crystal head beneath his auspices, we co o ul in a s ; have expected to see assembled here to -day distinguished individuals—so many talented grnep;resstennetwa-s tires of the mighty empire of intellect — of the great engines the press, gether not only science.

Gentlemen, I have only to say a few w or d s . We see in the Great Exhibition the productions of the world, from the raw material to the most perfect fabrics. We acknowledge the performance of refined art; but, alas, a great art is wanting—an art is the artr which gives tastes es and perfume to all other things—it reason kln or as we Germans say, Die Kochkunst. o it is, beyo n d a ll p ra i se , th a t M.

Professor FORBES returned thank s. . The health of Mr. Fox, the eminent contractor, was also drunk before the company began to disperse. The guests shortly afterwards left the banquet hall and adjourned to the bridge and terraces in front of the house, to witness a very brilliant display of firework s and the ascent of a fire-balloon, with which the festivi ties of the evening terminated. Tea, coffee, and other refreshments were served in the different saloons, and the company separated shortly before midnight, inexpressibly delighted with the splen did hospitalities of which they had been partakers.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION. Yesterday the receipts from visitors rose higher than ever. The ss. contributions amounted to 2,4304, and the sale of season-tickets, which still goes on prosper ously, swelled the total sum taken to 3,3001. E ven t h e Executive Committee are astonished with their own suc cess, and it now seems difficult to say at what point their financial fortunes may stop. Professor Cowper gave his first lecture to the students of King's College yesterday within the building. This first experiment of turning the Exhibition to educational uses has been successful, and the Executive Committee are determined to perse vere in their efforts in that direction. They have re ceived applications from the National Schools, and from other bodies, for facilities with a view to a practical course of instruction, but as yet they have not decided what course they should pursue with regard to them. There can be no question raised as to the i ro portance of this mutter, and we hope to see all parties coopera ting in giving to the rising generation, high and low , a and systematic conception of the Great Ex hibiti on.

GLASGOW, MAY 'l4.—The a rrivals coastwise have been unimportant, and from Ire land they have nearly ceased, whilst, in lieu of shipments thence, large quan tities of the cheaper kind s of flour are t aken thither for which a quick demand continues. The _ receipts of flour from England'to this have considerably fallen off of late, French manufacture taking its stead. Of foreign wheat, ma the Clyde, about 6,896 quarters, chiefly from Egypt, have come to band, along with 2,249 sacks of flour from France," 813 barrels of flour and 642 quarters of Indian corn from New York. Via Grangemouth about 827 quarters of wheat and 1,206 quarters of barley have been imported from abroad. For wheat and flour there was a rather` better demand during the course of last week, and floating cargoes of Egyptian wheat met some inquiry at late rates. Barley maintained its value. Oats, the stock of which seems to have dwindled down unprecedentedly at the principal markets in the United Kingdom. were in request, but a considerable advance demanded by holders tended to check sales. Beans were the turn dearer. Other articles without material change. This day's market was well attended by town and coun try buyers. Egyptian wheat attracted most inquiry; other kinds, as well as flour, were a retail sale at last week's currency. Grinding barley was a little dearer, being light in supply. Oats and oatmeal have to be written 6d to is higher per boll or load respectively. Beans advanced 6d to 9d per boll. Peas and Indian corn sold to-better ailvantage. LOUGHBOROUGH, MAY 15.
