Capital-500,0001.
(Incorporated under 7 and d Vict., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office are—Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each cia.ss of ri(k—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-
proached 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 Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire (Mice will, by a. constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to ti,e, 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 thirview an annual' inVestigation Will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly per cent: of the sett
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.

The following is the official epitome of agreement for
lease between the Great Western Railway Company and
the South Wales Railway Company. It is in substance
the same as that given by us a few days since:—

herein, for 999 years.

Swansea the agreement is to take effect on that portion,
including the Ballo Pill Tramway, and successively on

" The Great Western Railway Company are to find
the necessary rolling and working stock for the fell and
efficient working of the line. '
Out of the gross receipts allowance is to to be made
for the working expenses and other usual and proper
deductions. - A sum is also to be applied out of the earn-
ings of the line sufficient to defray the interest upon
the debenture debt of the company, not exceeding
500,0001., when the- line is opened ' between Grange
Court and Swansea; 700,000/. when opened to Caermar-
then; and 1,000,0001: when opened to Milford haven.

Eleven, 46,000/. per annum.'
" In addition to such rent the South Wales Company
are to receive two-thirds of the net profits of the line,
the remaining ono-third being received by the Great
Western Company in consideration of the fixed sums so
to be paid by them.
" The South Wales Railway Company are- to apply
to Parliament for power to extend the line to Milford
Haven, and the Great Western Railway Company are
to support and afford every assistance to such applica-
tion. '
" The South Wales Company are to provide the re-
quisite sccomodation for the traffic, and if additional
accommodation be required within or at the expiration
of four years, the South Wales Railway Company are
to provide the same, but afterwards any further accom-
modation. which may become necessary is to be provided
at the' expense of the two companies in the proportion
in which they are interested in the receipt?.
" The improvements of the Ballo Pill Tramway and

ment, are to be completed and included in the lease.

HEALTH of LONDON during the WEEK.
(From the Report of the Registrar-General.)
The last week has witnessed a great improvement in the
public health. The deaths in the metropolitan districts,
which had ranged above 1,400 in the last three weeks of
March, fell in the week ending last Saturday to 1,059. But
this is still a high rate of mortality, not only as compared
with what prevails in country districts, under conditions
more favourable to health, but also with that which the
population of London usually suffer at this period of the
year. In none of the ten corresponding weeks of 1841-50,
with the exception of that of 1850, did the number of
deaths exceed 1,028, while the average of these weeks was
946, which, if a correction be made for increase of popu-
lation will beeome 1,03 ?. Compared with the latter esti-
mated result, the deaths registered last week show an in-
crease of twenty-seven. •
A decrease in the mortality from complaints which have
lately been prevalent is now perceptible. The zymotic or
epidemic class of diseases, which comprises booping-cough
and influenza, with nineteen other forms of malady, has de-
clined from 245 deaths, which it numbered in the previous
week, to 180 in the last ; the class of diseases of the respi-
ratory organs, from 272' in the preceding week to 220 in the
present return. The tubercular class, which••includes sero-
f• la, tabu mesenteries, pbthisis or consumption, and hydroce-
phalus, has remained nearly the same in the two weeks;
while complaints of the digestive organs show precisely the
same amount.... . . • •

Last week 95 persons died of bronchitis, 81 of pneumonia,
74 of asthma, only the first of these 'diseases showing more
than the usual fatality; 59 children died of hooping-cough,
which is more than the average of corresponding weeks.
The cases in which the fatal cause is specified as influenza
have now sensibly decreased ; the number in this return
is 23.
The progress and decline of influenza during the last six
weeks may be traced in the deaths registered, which were
successively 8,15, 38, 65, 37, and 23. The fatal effects of
"diseases of the respiratory organs" (phthisis nct being in-
cluded in this category) may also be traced during the same
period in the following weekly numbers :-281, 321, 352, 330,
272, and 220.
Small-pox has further declined, and last week the deaths
o' only 7 children and two adults are ascribed to it; measles
also exhibits a more favourable result; and only 6 fetal cases
of scarlatina are recorded.
