EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE.
Capital--509,0301.
(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 Insurance against 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.

against Loss of Lite or other Personal Injury arising from Railway
Accidents. Incorporated under tee Act of Parliament, 7 and 8 Vic.,

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 carriages of any class, and
on any railway in the United Kingdom.
The Directors are now granting assurances upon the following
terms, viz.:—
For every Policy of 1001. 0/. ss. 1 For every Policy of 1,0001. 2/. 2s.
5001. 11. ss. I „ 2,0001. 4/. 4s.
Agents are appointed in all the principal towns of the United
Kingdom, through whom Assurances may bWe elLffected.

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, representing 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 17,7001.,
Since last meeting loans were 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 Lyons, and 3fonseigneur Paris'so, 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 SYSTEM.
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 are 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.

The high rate of interest •(rarely less than s per cent) charged by
landlordg in, the s'opo of rent to tenants, has rendered desirable .tlie
formation of a Society enabling occupiers to borrow, at a fair late of
interest, the sum for which their dwellings can be purchased, allow-
ing a term of years En* repayment sufficient to liquidate' the whole
arrilnift. i y simply. paying their rents to the Society. The average
value hoi,ng 111% years' purchase, 15 years will be alloyed for repay-
ment, .3% years be'ng sufficient to pay the interest; but "as some
would prefer repaying in a less period, the following Table of Repay-

BIRMINGHAM, MAY 12.
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 beirg Ac-
quainted with the facts, they felt that they had no alternative
but to institute a prosecution.
