In case of infraction the members of the bureaux shall be punished with a fine of from 500 f. to 3,050 f., and an imprisonment of six months at least, and three years at most. They may also be deprived of their civic rights. " Art. 4. The present law, followed by Art. 45 of the constitution, shall be posted up in all the communes of the Republic until the next presidential election." There is a rumour that the PRESIDENT of the Republic is coquetting with the Legitimatists, and that I. DE. FALLOUX will be entrusted with the formation of a Cabinet. We give no credit to these rumours; shcal a Legitimatist Ministry be formed, then indeed would the PRESIDENT become Manche IVapolionienne. The National again complains of the injury inflicted on trade by the intrigues of the various Monarchical parties, and adds-- " Let all workmen who suffer, let all manufacturers and merchants whcse interests are compromised, let all who groan in spirit as they see themselves obliged to withhold bread from the active workmen, unite their efforts to ours; let an energetic protest arise from all parts of the country, against conspiracies and provocations to revolt. Let public opinion, with the sentiment of its force, reduce such detest able ambitions to utter weakness. In a word, let all con spiracies be put down, and then will be verified our motto, No snore conspiracies, no more crises'--.< pi ns de eonspira . tions, plus de crises.

POWER OF MONEY. • Some men hoard their wealth, and do nobody good, While by others it's foolishly spent ; Bnt MOSES, who long by the public have stood, Remember why money was sent.; 11 3' commanding the markets, they buy a large stock Of the best, when the prices are cheap, Asfd they always take care that the public who flock To their mart, shall the benefit reap. ' Thus the wealth that to some folks would be of no use, 18 employed for the good of mankind, F or MOSES and SON in their buying profuse, To deal fairly are always inclined. What they buy is the best, and its made up in style, • And they pay for a thing when it's done; The smallest of profits content them the while, They sell fifty to any shop's one. Bee the price at which MOSES will sell a good coat, Or a vest, or a hat, or a shawl, Or trovisers, or boots, or a habit, and note, They are cheaper and better than all. Then MOSES and SON, may they long keep their health, And of money the benefit reap, For they share with the public the use cf their wealth, And supply them with clothes, good and cheap. h andsome Alm anac, for the year 1851, can be had gratis, On application. 04 ,12. e new edition of 11 application. ° f Book, containing a full report i;jhe late important trial.

I I ••• 9 SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND AND LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY. The Thirty-seventh Annual General Court of this Society was he'd within the Royal Hotel' (Glbb's), on TUESDAY the 14th of March, in terms of, and for the purposes specified in, the articles of constitution ; Anthony Murray, Esq , of Dollerie. W.S., in the chair, The minutes of the last General Court were read and approved. The manager then read the Report by the Directors of the pro ceedings of the last year, from which it appeared— ]. That the number of Policies passed during the year had been 716, the sums Assured amounting to 493,169/. 145., and the annual contributions to 16,6461. tis. 5d., being an excess over those passed in the previous year to the extent of 116 in the number of Policies, and of 76,104/. 3s. in the amount Assured. 2. That the average amount of Assurance passed during the last thirteen years had exceeded half a million annually. 3. That the total amount of the Society's engagements at the close of the year 1850, exclusive of Bonus additions, amounted to 6,920,591/. 13s. 7d. 4. That the Capital of the Society had increased during the year to the extent of 142,643/. 3s. 1:1., and amounted at 31st De cember last to 2,310,149/. I2s. 2d. 5. That the Annual Revenue of the Society amounted at 31st De cember last to 306,511/. 15s. 102. 6. That of the Lives assured by the Society in existence at the commencement of the year 1350, 94 had died during that year, the sums for which they were assured amounting to 110,e941. Bs. 4d., and the Bonus additions attaching to the Policies at the date of their emergence amounting to 27,5131. Bs. Bd. 7. That the above sum of 110,894/. Bs. 41., and the number of deaths, were in the ratio of 57 per cent. of what might have been expected, according to the tables of mortality upon which the Society's calculations are based. The CHAIRMAN then rose, and moved the approval of the Report; and the motion having been carried by acclamation, he said —You have been pleased to approve of the Report of the Directors ; and it now devolves upon me, having the honour to occupy this chair, to address a few words to you, almost recapitulating that which is con tained in the report—not for the purpose of adding any facts to those which are there stated, but rather in order to endeavour to impress them more deeply upon your attention. I will begin by observing that the facts contained in the report are founded neon figusta a ared are, therefore, hardly to be challenged—(Heer, hear)—and it is in consequence the less necessary for me . to say much about them. I may, however, remark that these facts are rather agreeable ones, because we find ourselves, after a year somewhat of depression, as that of 1849 was, at last replaced in the situation of con siderable advancement. —(Applause.) We find, for example, from the report, that, while in the year 1849 the directors had passed COO policies, they have passed durina the past year of 1850 as many as 716, beteg an increase of 111 over those passed in the previous year. g( i n rcah l t B ei f s e3 O r is i n. t )g a m i a o I c u t n t h t eai think alluded to d te 4 hd 9 a B t , t l o 6 t 9 h / le . Isi l e 4 t s ha raee o rrevenpecoreyrt encouraging We also find that upon these lives the amount insured in 1849 amounted t o 422 a ,00i / n 1 . 1 ,01 iwtohnhei. Another e l f s a a e l t f s one which naturally follows from what I have just stated, is this, that the average of our y ear ly b us i ness h as no t f a ll en o ff, That for a period of thirteen years, the average amount of business done by the Society has exceeded half s million annually. I think that that simple circumstance shows us that our Association con tinues to retain the confidence of the public.—(Hear, hear.) Our engagements now amount (exclusive of the bonus additions attaching to the policies,) to very nearly seven millions sterling, the exact sum being 6,920,591/. 13s. 7d. That is the extent of the obligations under which we lie to the public, who hold °tit' policies. The capital, by which we are enabled so far to meet these engagements—the really invested capital—amounts to 2,310,149 a 'l2s. 2d., with an annnal revenue of 306,511/. 15s. 10d. That revenue, you will observe, is more than double the amount which we paid in the course of the past year, under emerged policies; and that revenue, as you have heard it stated, so far as it arises from the Society's capital, is derived, not from uncertain sources, but from the best security which can be found in Great Britain. There is another agreeable circumstance mentioned in the report. I believe it is not unusual—l believe it is to be found elsewhere —viz , That during the past year the mortality among the members of this Association has been less than during the preceding year, and that, too, although of course the number of lives insured has in creased, and the ages of these lives have also increased. Notwith standing this, the number of lives that have fallen during the past year is only 94, being a decrease of 17 as compared with 1849, when the number of persons insured who died was 111. This, as I have already stated, is an encouraging and agreeable circumstance; but it is a circumstance which we must observe with caution, because it will occur to every gentleman here present, as I dare say it also occurred to the Directors, that these vicissitudes in the number of fallen lives only show us the uncertainty of one year's casualties compared with those of another; and, therefore, we are justified, as we think, in maintaining our present practice of a division of profits only at considerable intervals, viz., seven years. During that time we are enabled to ascertain with more accuracy than we could otherwise do, the true state state of mortality amongst our members. While I feel called upon to make this remark, which 1 believe to be a proper one, I also remark another circumstance in the management of this Association, which is this, that while we divide cur profits only once every seven years, we, at the time of declara tion, set aside what is necessary not merely to secure a Bonus for the past seven years, but for the seven years which must necessarily elapse before another declaration takes place—that is to say, looking forward to the certainty that some of the policies must fall, by the death of the members, during the course of the succeeding seven years, we at the period of declaration, set aside a sum from the real ised lends, fur the purpose of meeting the payment of a prospective bonus upon those that may fall, so that any policy that falls during the next year, or in any one of the seven years before another declaration is made, is entitled to receive its share of the bonus, not only accruing when the previous declaration was made, but an addition also corresponding to each year that nas since elapsed. In this manner no disadvantage arises from postponing the period of actual investigation or declaration ; because let a member die when he may, his representatives draw a bonus for each year that he has been a contributor to the funds of the Society. The sum which has already. been divided, or which may be divided amongst the representatives of the 94 persons who died during last year, amounts to 110,894/. 88. 42., being the original sum for which they were assured, and the bonus additions attaching to their policies, is 27,513/. 85. Bd., making altogether the sum of 138,407/. Now, it occurs to me that the sum for which we have become liable by tile death of our members during the past year, is very satisfactory_ Vidence of the benefit de rived from the Association by the community. The division of this sum amongst 94 individuals, niut, give to each individual 1,400/. or 1,500 .—a very comfortable sum indeed.—(Hear, hear.) then, coin cident with the diminution in the number of lives that have fallen during the past year, the average mortality has, of course, decreased: Instead of being 638 per cent., as it was in 1849, it was last year only 57 per cent., upon what might have been anticipated, according to ti.e bills of mortality on which the Society's tables are based; and this de crease in the rate of mortatity is all the more striking, seeing, as I have already remarked, that the number of members and the aver age age of the lives was increased during 1850.—(Hear, hear.) These are the principal features in the statistics stated in the report read by the manager. Before proceeding any further, I may remind the meeting of what has been already stated by the manager, that we have on the table a report by three gentlemen Mr. Brown, accountant, Mr. Melville, W.S., and air. Brand, Secretary to the Union Bank—eminent for their professional qualifications, who were called upon by the Extraordinary Court of Directors to report upon your affairs. That report, as has been stated, has been placed in the hands of the mem bers ; but it any member may not have received it, he a ill be supplid with a copy ot it, by applying at Lae 04fee. In that report a most sa tisfactury state is exhibited of the position of the Society.—(Hear, hear.) I observed in a p: evious part cd my statement, that your affairs are founded upon facts and figures ; and it will be seen from the report to which 1 am now referring, that the most careful examina tion was made to verily the figures upon which these facts are based ; and that the result was, that it was foiled that the funds of the society are safely invested, that its affairs have been prudently administered, and that the system of book-keeping and checks is as nearly perfect as any institution can possess. We trust that the meeting will regard a hat is stated in this report, and also in the annual report just submitted, as very satisfac tory.—(Hear, hear.) We have alluded to the successful results of last year. We do so with perfect confidence, referring not to any thing in our institution as compared with others, but to its own in trinsic and individual merits. Looking around us, we see many in stitutions somewha: similarly based. We hail them all, nut as rivals, or competitors, but simply as assistants and fellow-labourers in the same good work, established for the benefit of their individual members, and those who may choose to take advantage of the sys tem of Life Insurance.— (Applause.) There are various means for • effecting this object, and various ways of taking advantage of this system, but we think that the experience of thirty-seven years justifies us in adhering to our own system—a system which we have found to work remarkably well, and which we find has passed through at least a few years of trying ordeal, and I may say with triumphant success. —(Loud applause.) It is, how ever much we may regard other kindred institutions with satis faction and good will, a natural desire on the part of the Mem bers of this Society, to endeavour to find others who will follow their example; and we trust that the results we have now exhibited will be no small inducement to draw them towards us. Every one connected with us, has connexions in , some way or other, whether by relationship or otherwise, to whom he may recommend the example, which he has himself set— of in suring his life. We can do so—not in any spirit of selfishness, because it must be remembered, that of the thousands who have insured their lives, not one of them will receive tile benefit him self. They must all die before the benefit of what they have done can be reaped; and, therefore, it is from no spirit of selfishness, or with a desire hastily to be rich, that we reccommend life insurance to ethers. We recommend it simply upon the principle, and in the spirit of a well-regulated industry, and of a vigorous and manly self-denial in the use of those advantages which we derive from our professional avocations.— (The Chairman resumed his seat amid great applause.)

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (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. Tke 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 can only be ap goached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Avenge, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Mee 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 fitty per cent. of the nett excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. lusurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms.

The FOURT II ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head /ffice, 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. end but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 2801.—making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how 4everely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1249, 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 52,963/.25. Gd.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. Gs. Wixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0431., upon which 3201. 3.1. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums. Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June hist, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro- Jucing in annual premiums 3,7321. • I 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. 15s. I Id. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,183/. Its. 10d. only was advanced. . . The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur de PEtang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con siderable amount of bnsiness, 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.

NEWBURY, A PRIL 3.—At to-day's market we have a very short supply of wheat ; and the prospect of only short supplied for some weeks to come, arising from field operations, induced our millers to be eager purchasers ; consequently the market was cleared early, and prices advanced fully is per quarter. Barley, short supply, and all sorts in good request at Is per quarter advance. Beans, oats, and pens, moderate supply, and in full demand at late rates. In seeds more passing at full rates. LIVERPOOL, APRIL 4.—The arrivals of grain and flour continue to be upon a limited scale, whilst the demand for con sumption goes on steadily. At this morning's market there was no change in the value of any article excepting 'Dealing oats, which, from scarcity, improved Id per bushel. Wheat, flour, and Indian corn, all commanded extreme prices. Beans and oatmeal were a trifle higher. Barley and peas were un changed in value. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, APRIL 4.—The market continues miserably dull, and prices still wear a further retro grade appearance; indeed, the transactions of the week are quite unimportant. A few parcels of Barbadoes, of the new crop, have been taken by the grocers, but there is no life in the demand. Refined steady, but not active. --Bristol Mercurt- EXETER, APRIL 4.—Cattle Market—There was a good supply of fat bullocks. The best quality soil at 8s per score ; inferior, 7s.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EPSOM RACES.--YESTERDAY. That the legitimate portion of the Spring Meeting was likely to prove the most attractive must have been gathered from our outline of the engagements published on Thursday, and in no respect did it disappoint us; the prizes were rich, varied, and important, the fields large, and the sport really first rate. The reduction of the bonus to the Metropolitan Handicap from 560/. to 350/., and the appropriation of the amount withdrawn to the establishment of the City and Suburban Handicap, was a well-judged alteration; and if another 501. had been taken off and added to the Two vrs old Stakes, the programme would have been unexceptionable. Taking it altogether, however, Mr. Dorling showed great zeal and liberality in his catering, and is deserving of all praise.' While raising the value and character of the stakes, he has not been unmindful of details ; heats were abolished, and sufficient time was taken yesterday between the different events to enable the company to enjoy the sport-an impossibility with half-hour intervals-- and still keep them long enough on the course to prevent grumbling from the boothkeepers. He has provided in creased accommodation in the Grand Stand, by adding a wing at the extremity, with seats sloping to the lawn, and capable of holding about 150 persons. The old passage from the corner of the enclosure to the offices has been closed up, and a flight of steps erected in the rear of the Jockey Club Stand. Mr. D. has also won the hearts of the jockies by providing them with an enclosed passage from the weigh ing room to the course, thereby relieving them from the annoyance they have hitherto experienced in returning to scale. We are glad to find that the march of improvement is not to stop in the spring. Several new and important plates,&c., have been announced for the greater meeting in May, which promises to be an " Exhibition" worthy of the year and of the locality. We may conclude this portion of our preliminary remarks by stating that the offices of judge, starter, and clerk of the scales, were ably filled by Mr. Clark, Mr. Hibburd, and Mr. Manning; and that all business matters on the course, the cards alone excepted, were punctually and efficiently per formed. The weather, doubtful in the morning, turned out clear and mild; trains were started as rapidly as safety and the occasion required, and an immense assemblage was collected on the Downs; it included many of the racing influentials, but lacked one who for nearly half a century was one of the pillars of the turf, and of whom the Epsom people will long retain a grateful recollection-we mean Sir Gilbert Heath cote, who, in his dress, manner, and habits, realised the most approved conception of the English country gentleman. The Stewards' Stand, tolerated only out of respect to Sir Gilbert, was closed, and will, we trust, be removed-it impedes the view of the start for the Derby, and is in every sense an eye. sore. The racing, as we have before observed, was excellent ; and gratifying as it must have been to the spectators, it could not have been otherwise to the " professionals," the favourites for all the great races having " thrown out." It is singular that The Ban was not merely altogether out of the betting, but that his name did not even appear on the cards! Hesse Homburgh's friends fancy that she would have been near winning had she not broken away with her jockey after cantering, and run a considerable distance before the lad could pull her up ; her position at the finish made her first favourite for the Newmarket Handicap. The racing com menced a few minutes after one, and, time having been ob served with considerable punctuality, was brought to a close shortly after five. We subjoin details:- Epsom Trial Stakes of 5 sovs. each, with 50 added; th r e e yrs old, 7st, and four, 9st. One mile. (11 Subs.) Major Martyn's The Swede, 4 yrs (W.

The lot got away in a cluster, and, with Simplicity a trifle in advance, ran in close order to the distance ; from this point to the end the race was left to The Swede, Terpsichore, and Simplicity, the former obtaining the lead opposite the Stand, and winning cleverly by a length. Run in 1 min. 59 secs. The City and Suburban Handicap of 15 sovs. each, 10 ft, and only 5 if declared, with 150 added ; the second to re ceive 25 toys. out of the stakes.

Britannia made the running, followed closely by Handsome Doe, the Empress colt, Incurable, Elthiron, and The Swede lying in the centre; and Pitsford, Maid of Team Valley, Brington, and Castanero in the rear. Except that Pitsford, Eva, Elthiron, and Maid of Team Valley, began creeping towards the front from the turn, there was no change till they got to the road ; here Maid of Team Valley too the lead, and, having disposed of Britannia, Incurable, and the Empress colt, was joined at the stand by Elthiron, Eva, The Swede, and Pitsford. A few strides from home Elthiron and Eva went in front, and made a brilliant finish, the horse win ning by a head ; Pitsford a very good third, with Maid of Team Valley at his side.

Flirt, Prince Rupert, and the Old Lad, were in front from first to last, Flirt who went the fastest, and had the race in hand all the way, taking the lead half-way up the distance, and winning in a canter by a length, The Old Lad beating Prince Rupert by two lengths. Queen Bee fell early in the race and threw her rider, who escaped with a few bruises. Run in 53 sec. The Great Metropolitan Stakes of 25 sovs, each, 15 ft, and 5 only if declared, with 350 added.

Hesse Homburg took the lead immediately after starting, followed by Selina, Valentine, Sunrise, and a bevy of light weights, in the rear lying Glauca and The Ban. Except that the two leading horses materially increased the space betwixt themselves and their followers, there was no change of any moment until they came to the mile post; here Cnnus and The Ban drew forward, and gradually increasing their positions were second and third at the road, Sunrise and Selina following them. At the distance The Ban went up to Hesse Homburg, de prived her of the lead, and won easily by two lengths, Hesse Homburg passing the chair three lengths in advance of Ceases; Selina a bad fourth, Sunrise fifth. Run in 4 min. 21 sec. It is rather singular that The Ban was left out of the card altogether. The Railway Plate of 50 sovs. (handicap), for all ages. Three-quarters of a mile.
