To SHIP-OWNERS and CAPTAINS.
HE Superior Advantage, both to SAILS and
STORES, of Prepared low-priced Brown Canvas, over
"10
te expensive Coker sorts, is fully proved by the following
Ltr:—

Eden West India Docks, March 26th, 1822.
GRNTLEMtN,—In March 1821, you prepared some Scotch
canvas of rather an inferior quality for the brig Eden, under
any command.—l had a quarter deck awning made of part of
lt, which was hauled out occasionally on the passage to Ja-
lnaica ; likewise four weeks at Kingston, and at the Havan-
laalt for near seven months ; during the latter period we ex.
Perienced very considerable changes of weather. The awn-
ing is in a good state, and I have no doubt will yet last seve-
ral voyages. During the whole time at the Havannah it was
furled thrice for a few hours only;
Part of the time, near four months, a lower studsail of Co-
ker canvas, new on leaving England, was used as a main-
deck awning, when it was found .one mass of mildew, and so
rotten as to be totally unfit for service. I forward a piece of
each, with my seal annexed, for your inspection, and beg you
will make what use you think proper of it.
I likewise forward a piece of oae of your prepared bolts,
Which by some accident got wet through seven or eight folds,
And was not discovered till quite dry, when I made 'a lower
studsail of it, which has been used the passage home, and is
perfectly good. Any other canvas, I think, would have beeri,
under similar circumstances, totally useless.
_ Wishing you every success which
your discovery merits, I
ni Gentlemen,,your,obedient servant,

NORWICH v. COUNTY FIRE-OFFICE.
- • TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

• ..
ADVER SE 111E1VT, signed
COCKER, issued brthe Secretary to the New Norwich
Insurance CoMpany, impugns the truth of an extract published
last suMnier,, shelving the inctease-of duty paid by the County
Fire Office for the preceding year. He performs this notable
feat by quoting the amount paidfor thc following year, viz. for
1821, and won the necessary difference of the exhibit he at-
tempts to bevitty. It however your readers will consult any au-
tbentic source,-&hey will find that the, extract was right to a
fraation,and if they extend the inquiry to two,three, four,or five
yearSliack, they will still find that the increa.se.of duty paid by
the County Fire'Offiae has exceeded that of any other Office in
the kingdom. In return for the politeness shewn in answering
this very, triang questiop,Mr. Id will perhaps condescend
to answertWO or three:question, of" some pith and moment."
I( it,twtrue, that the Norwiclr'Uttion Society increased
so wonderfully lest year, as it- pretended—that it returned
profits to the large amount stated--,that it had in band the
hundreds of thousands advertised—what, in the-name of won-
der! was the consideration that induced sfr. Diploid to break
up Such a Society, unknown to' the Trustees and to the Mem-
bers generally, and silently to turn them all over to a Nor-
WO Joint Stock Company ?
td. If it be false—will not the public tire of such tricks

3(1. Wlfether trtie•or false—why are the advantages of the
dissolved mutual Assurance Society quoted for many years
back, and advertised; as• benefits conferred by the Norwich
Joint Stuck Company, which has not been seven months in.
'existence—unless to decciVe the Public ?—I am Sir, your's, &c.

A PLAIN DEALER.

I'. S.—The assertion, that last year the County Fire Office
" actually made a canvass, house by house, through the me-
tropolis,'; is one of the " unreal mockeries" which .the public
is so much accustomed to receive frOm the Norwich forge.
