General Manager's-office, Euston Station, By order, MARK HIIISH. The first of May is now at hand, when the Crystal Pavilion will open its ample portals for the inauguration of an event without pa rallel in the history of the world. To a mind susceptible of emotion the bare contemplation of such a spectacle is exciting in the highest decree; and, doubtless, " the world of wonders" in itself Will be captivating and startling to minds of the least susceptibility.: Crea tive genius, aided by philosophy and science, has been busily operat ing in every conceivable branch of human art; and we may safely come to the conclusion that the thousandfold observers of this mighty di:splay will be left in bewilderment at the all but super-human re sults of a world's emulation. • Man's utmost powers have been la vished on this grand and comprehensive scheme, and the fruits of these labours will be manifest in every diversity of design. The most vivid imagination is incapable of adequately picturing the splendour of the inaugural ceremonies of this stupendous spec tacle. The public mind has been in a measure prepared for the event by the frequent notices of talented writers ; expectation has been raised to its highest pitch, and the wide world has been led to anti cipate a scene such as will cast in the shade all the most gorgeous pageants of the earth, The scene which the Crystal Palace will pre sent, on the first of May, will be an epitome of the world's handi work, and all that is great, beautiful, and useful will then be exhi bited to view ; and we shall thus have an opportunity of judging as to the progress of six thousand years. There is one branch of human industry which will form a conspi cuous feature amid this grand development of skill. While the tables and galleries will display costly gems, precious metals, intricate machinery, beautiful statuary, - vases, immense loco motives, ergans of astounding magnitude, horological instruments, castings, modellings, elegant stationery, furniture, and a thousand other products of industry, native and foreign, the eye will be irre sistibly attracted by the various novel, beautiful, and useful Speci mens of materials for attire. _ _ A till's 24.- - t d 4O >heel). a! the attle en' doll re very ep s , f 445, curl: k, l et cwt. , 6113 4 a few 01_ 0 4 „ , d, sad tbe o; .Irs 6d, cu rr7 001 i r lb., 61 , 00d head, Recur' " Ir u OF MR.

Extensive Travelling Leave granted without extra Premium Moderate extra EQPremiumUITABLE for R FIRE e IRE OFFICE in Tropi . cal Climates. Capital-50 0 , 0001 . (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office era—Moderate and equitable Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Prato. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion ereinium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so gfeat, 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 Cffercht 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 ,t roached dthrough Classification and Average, which has net 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 lees for so great a calamity as Eire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination the risk Classific ation and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to 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 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. p er cent, withoutthe Average Clause.

ATHOLIC 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, ttna but two in Ireland— , one for 5001. and the other for 2601. making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1849, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued In the twelve months preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.23. 6d.: of these 121, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481,, upon which 3201. 3e. 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. 125 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,732/. Ifs. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 141/. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,9911. 15s. 11 d. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,700/., but 1,1831. 11s. 102. 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 I'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished fur 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. ONE PAYMENT FOR THE WHOLE OF LIFE. riIHE RAILWAY ASSURANCE COMPANY , .1_ for granting Assurances upon Payment of a Single FM1111(1112 against Loss of Life or other Personal Injury arising from Railway Accidents. Incorporated under the Act of Parliament, 7 and S Vic., cap. 110. Capital - One Hundred Thousand Pounds. Offices, No. 5, St. James's•street, London. TRUSTEES. The Right Hon. Earl Fitzwilliam. I The Common Sergeant. The Hon. Henry G. spencer. Charles Elopkinson, Esq. 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 arc 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 tile 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 carriages of any ease, and on any railway in the United Kingdom. The Directors are now granting assurances upon the follov(ing terms, viz. : For every Policy of 1001. 01. ss. I For every Policy of 1,060/. 21. 28. ~ IP 500/ 11. ss, „ „ „ 2 , 0001 . 41 . 4s. Pt Agents are appointed in all the principal towns of the United Kingdom, through whom Assurances may be effected. W. W. ,WILLIAMS, Secretary. THE STATE OF TRA DE. Every ene in trade must come down with his profits. The landholder finds he must lower his rents, and he naturally curtails hie expenditure, he will go where he can buy cheapest. In the end, perhaps, he finds he can save in his expenditure a good deal, if not all, that he has been curtailed in his income; and this saving principle will descend through all classes, even to the labourer. How necessary then must it be to prepare for the fall by timely sa vings; by carefully laying out money where it will go the furthest and produce most? It is not intended here to argue, whether in a country like this, low or high prices are the best for the nation; some politicians say, that where a large portion of our expenses may he put under the item of taxes which are demanded in full, low prices and small profits will not answer, but this depends on cir cumstances ; an experiment tried on a very extensive scale has proved, that small profits and low prices command a large amount of trade. Messrs. E. MOSES and SON have for years made it their system of business. They have found that a shilling profit on an article pays much better Wm a ten shilling profit, because, v here they could have sold only one, they sell 20 or 30 ; and after having for many years conducted their gigantic establish ment upon the small profit system, they have proved its efficacy most completely. But it is not only the small profit which lower the prices of their articles, it is in the purchase of material in great quantities, with an unlimited command of capital, at the periods most favourable for price, that they save all the profits of factors, dealers, and middle men, so that the very coat which would cost some tradesmen 50s. would coat them only 315., and the tradesman who pays most for it wants the most profit ; so that the customer who buys of one mug perhaps pay 31. 103., and can be served by E. MOSES and SON for 325. Of course, this can only be warranted by a very extensive trade, far more extensive than ordinary people imagine. By the same kind of reasoning it may be concluded that, where one man sells a coat for W. 10s.. and gets a pound by it, Messrs. E. MOSES and SON will sell fifty, and get 51. by them. Let any lady or gentleman walk over their establishment, and see garments by thousands, arid they will cease to wonder how Messrs. E. MOSES and SON can supply the very best of everything at the very low figure, which they have long adopted as their undeviating charge for everything they make. Their stock of summer articles has never been equalled in quality, variety, and elegance. A handsome Almanac, for the year 1851, can be had gratis, on ' e f t t t e h r e , application. The new edition of "Everyb od y ' s Book, containing a fall report late important trial, may be had gra tis, on a pp lication, or by I E.

Slay 5 nveyed by Lted States 1 DEATH OF A BURGLAR.--A coroner's investigation took place on Friday, at the county gaol, Stafford, concern ing the death of a burglar named Ma rk Smith, an inmate of th prison, who died from the effects of a cutlass wound, which was inflicted daring a formidable encounter with the police. On the morning of the 20th ult. the deceased and ano ther determined burglar, named George Wood, alias Arthur Key (who was transported at the late Quarter Ses sions), entered the premises of Mr. S tackhouse, a t Walsall, where they were surprised by the sergeant of police and two or three of his men. They were called to surrender, whe n they made a desperate effort to escape . Ke y was Captured, but Smith rushed down a long garden, and a constable was about to secure him, when the fellow dealt the officer a se vere blow over the head with a heavy bludgeon, which he held in his hand. The officer managed to draw his cutl ass , and, in self-defence, struck at the prisoner. The cutlass fell on his head, and, as was subsequently ascertained, fractured his scull. The blow felled him to the ground, and he was then secured, and, with Key, removed to the station-house, where the wounded burglar received every medical relief. They were committed for trial to the county gaol, but Smith gradually sunk under the injury he had sustained on the head, and expired. The jury returned a verdict of " Justifiable homicide." DETERMINED SUICIDE AT ROTIIERRAM.—About seven o'clock on Saturday morning last, Mary Steel, wife of Wm. Steel, labourer, iNlasbro', committed suicide in a very determined manner. Shortly before seven o'clock she went up stairs, and was followed by her mother, a decrepid old woman. Deceased attempted to push her down stairs, but not succeeding in this she closed the chamber door, placed her back against it, and almost severed her head from her body with a razor. She died in a few minutes. She had been in a desponding state of mind for some time, and it was the intention of her friends to take steps that very day to provide for her adiniuien into the lunatic asylum.— Sheffield Times. military accoutrements.
