Capital-500,000/.
(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office era —Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each class or risk—Annual division of Profits.
Ile difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
`remium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has keen so
:reat, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
han calculation.
It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
iifferent 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,
•hat such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the
true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
,ance Company is established.
the true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
rroached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
wen sufficiently acted ~n, 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 less for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
s 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 Office will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to fir: e, adopt such rates of Premium as the
rature 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 fluty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
keen in force for three years.
Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Cortipany,upon
every description of Property on moderate terms.
Farming Stock insured at 3s per cent, without the Average Clause.

tion at the Office, or to any of its Agents.

LIFE DEPARTMENT.--Unchr the tirovislons of an Aet of Par-
liament, recently obtained, this Company now offers to future in-
surers a 1 ,w Rate of premium without participation in Profits; or a
moderate scale of premiums with four-fifths of the Profits to be de-
rived irom all Assurances hereafter elected.
The divisions of Profits which heretofore have been vnade Septen-
nially will to future be made Quinquennially, the first of such divi-
sions to be declared in June 18.5, when all participating policies
which shall have subsisted at least one year at Christmas, 1834, will
be allowed to share in the profits;
At the several pest divisions of profits made by this Company, 'he
reversionary Bonuses added to the Tolle es from one half the profits
amounted, en an average of the different ai es, to about 1 pet cent:
per annum on the sums insured, end the total bonuses added at the
four seotennial divisions exceeded 770.000/.
FOREIGN RISKS.—The extra Premiums required for the East
and West Indies, the British Colonies, and the northern parts of the
United States of America, have been materially reduced.
LOANS granted on Life Policies to the extent of their values, pro-
•.tded such Policies shall have been effected a sufficient time to have

attained in each case a value not under 501.
In the FIRE DEPARTMENT, a Return of profit was declared
n the sth of June, upon the premiums received on all Policies
which had been in force seven years at Christmas 1849, and the same
s now in course of payment daily (Friday and Saturday excepted),
itetween the hours of ten and three o'clock, at the Head Office; and

During the past year no clahns have arisen from deaths In Englar-4.
and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the Other tor 2501.—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, 11549, 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. 2s. 6d.:
of these 121, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,t251. 6s.
sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481.,iup0n which 3201. 3s.
was received by the Company in the shape of premiums.
Since the commencerrient of the Company to the' Ist of Tune last,
assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro-
ducing •in annual premiums 3.7321. I Is. 6d.' Of these 54 lapsed,
amounting tong,99ol. I6s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were
7411. ls., leaving the yearly income on the Istof Jane last equal to
2,9911. 15s. I Id.
Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001.,
bat 1,1831. I Is. 104 i 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 l'Etang, a geitlernan of high standing in Pixie, 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 Archbisin,pof 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. I
After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning
thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman,, Bishop Morris, the Vice-
ment, the meeting
Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish.

RAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE.
SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM, SHREWSBURY AND
CHESTER, AND GREAT WESTERN COMPANIES —We
have just been irsformed that the Great Western Com-
pany are about to propose an agreement with the
Shrevvsbury. and Birmingham and Shrewsbury and
Chester Companies, which would be tantamount to a
lease of the two latter by the former company. The
proposed terms, after paying interest on debenture debt
and preference shares, are-
-3 per cent. in the year 1852;
3 per cent. in the year 1853;
3 per cent. in the year 1854; and either
3 or 4 per c«nt. in the 3 ear 1855; and, if the former,
4 per cent. in the year 1856.
The three companies to be amalgamated from the Ist of
January, 1856, or 1857, into one company, receiving
stock in the amalgamated company for their shares on
the basis of their proportionate net earplugs during the
year 1855 or 1856, after payment of all fixed charges,
including interest on debentures and preference shares.
The above objects to .be carried out by Act of Par-
liament,
THE SAMBRE AND MEUSE RAILWAY.—We under-
stand th4t the directors of this comiviny are In the dally
expectation of receiving a concession from the Belgian
Government, which will place the line on a very different
fooling from what it has t.Hterto stood on.
STAFFORDSHIRE AND SHROPSHIRE It AILWA.Y.—His
Honour Master Richards has deterred judgment in Mr.
Archibalo's case, in this matter, to give that gentleman
an opportunity of prilving, by the production of wit-
nesses, that he had authority from the board of directors
to rem ,ve the fiiiab from rhi- Commercial Bank.
SUBMARINE TELEGRAPHS.—The L indon and North-
Western, Chester and Holyhead, South-Eastern, and
other railways, are petitioning to be heard in Committee
against the proposed submarine telegraphs, on the
ground, it is understood, that the latter propose in their
Bills to obtain exclusive privileges along the railways of
the kingdom.

13, Mount-street, Grosvenor-square. A bookcase made
to form one end of a room. The material is walnut,
richly and minutely carved. In the centre is a cavity
for a fireplace which is of red Mons marble, with a
green dragon fitted in it. Over the fireplace are three
niches, with green and red marble foliage panels. At
each side of these niches is a space for books, with'
brass doors lined with crimson velvet. Besides each
of these doors is a pedestal for statuary. Behind
these are pilastres exquisitely carved, representing
the vine stem and grapes, and boys with baskets
gatherieg the grapes. teat the base are snakes, and
lizards, and dragons, with some of which boys are
having contests; and on the stem are birds, butter-
flies, moths, and lizards. Under these pedestals are
panels inlaid with green and red marble, and bosses
Of "red marble. The whole is surmounted with
a pediuieut, which is also minutely carved. The

extreme length of this magnificent piece of furniture
is 20 feet 8 inches; height, 13 feet 10 in. Its con-
struction has employed 25 men since September last,.
and its cost has not been Lis than 1,600/. A console
table and glass. This is a more showy article even
than the book-case. The design is novel and orginal.
The table is supported by gilt scrollwork, with mirrors
so arranged as to represent a sheet of water, at the
edge of which are the water lily, the lotus, and the
bullrush, and children playing on horns, kettle drums,
and other instruments, all gilded in variegated gold.
The tab!e is in imitation marble, and above it is a
magnificent mirror, about 8 feet 4 inches in height,
and about 7 feet in its greatest breadth. At the bot-
tom, at each side of the frame, is a stork: supporting
the frame which is made to represent the water lily
and the lotus, and other aquatic plants intwined, all
gilded with variegated gold, and the whole surmounted
with a cluster of bulirushes. The total height is 12

Hunter, Edwin, Broomhall-street, Sheffield. A display
of scissors in a glass case, 4 ft. 6 in. by 5 ft. 6 in.,
with a carved oak frame, containing 230 pairs of
scissors of every size and pattern, grouped and
mounted upon a white ground. The centre object is
a pair of huge scissors, 22 inches long, the bows and
shank representing in outline two crowns, the upper
one surmounted by a thistle. All the ornamental
work is wrought with the file, some portions of the
surface being chased. This object is by far the most
expensive pair of scissors ever produced in Sheffield.
On each side of these appears another pair. One
pair represents, in chasing, the bruising of the serpent's
head; in the centre is wrought out with the file the
Prince of Wales's feathers, and the bow is constituted
of the emblematic group of the shamrock, rose,, and
thistle, and some curious scroll-work, all wrought out
with the file. The department conveying the greatest
amount of instruction to the general spectator is in the
left-hand lower corner. It illustrates the process of
the scissors manufacture in ten distinct stages: 1. A.
plain piece of steel; 2. The mood, after the first pro-
cess of forging; 3. .The forging complete; 4. Filed;
5. Bored and, sharpened; 6. Ground; 7. Bow got up;
8. Fitted; 9. Glazed; 10. A finished pair of ordinary
barber's scissors. Over these objects there are spe-
cimens of print, woman's shaping, drapers', and nail
scissors, all glazed; a pair of dandy's whisker scissors,
with a comb fabricated at one side; a variety of lamp
scissors, vines, flower gatherers, pruning and slide
pruning shears, and horse trimmers, all with very long
stems; massive tailors' shears and American ditto.
The right-hand side of the case is headed with speci-
mens of fancy shaping and banker's paper scissors, hair
and nail scissors, and a great variety for gentlemen's
dressing-cases. In the centre of this side the most
striking object is a pair of 16-inoh fancy nail scissors,
ornamented with etching; these, as their immense size
suggests, are designed only for show. Beneath them
is a group of surgeons' scissors, carved, angular, and
distorted into every imaginable shape, for diffi-
cult operations. Included in the foregoing are
all the ordinary and most useful varieties.
The remainder, comprising about one-third of
the whole collection, are all more or less or-
namented with the file and the process of chasing.
Amongst them are a complete set of ladies chatelaine
scissors, and about a dozen pairs representing different
kinds of bird, the blades being the bill, the stems
forming the legs, and the centre representing the body.
There are also fifteen pairs of ladies' scissors, repre-
senting effigies of the eagle, swan, peacock, pheasant,
butterfly, &c.; besides a lot of fancy shaping and mirk
cellaneous scissors. All the interstices are filled up
with an endless variety of useful ornamented scissors,
including some of the smallest kinds used by artificial
flymakers. Amongst the curiosities there is a pair of
scissors which, when closed, are exactly in the form
of a dagger, and the joints aro so delicately finished
as to be quite imperceptible. Another pair represents
