The difflenity of collecting the elements on which to proportion
Premium to :risk in', Insurance` against Loss by Piro has been so
great, that the, rates at preses charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.
It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
difteirt Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
&meant of annl're ual minms rSepived by each.
-.lt is of the highest importance; both to the Insured andlitsurers,
Wet. such air anomaly shoed cease, and an approation to the'

re:Ns cokapany is established.
:,Thei true rate of Premien' for Fire Insurance tan only be ap-

,Iyhiltever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
Pclnured determine the true Premium eqUitably payable, as -
•aeurity against loss for so great a calamity as-fire,
and the Insurer
is largely interested in this question, and will eensult his Interest by.
supporting a system where, by a careful bonedcomn of ClassifiCa-..
tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
.. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant aualysia of its own'
experience, from time to time,opt 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 risk vend an animal investigation will be made into each.
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly per cent. of the nett

THE STATE OF TRADE.
Every one in trade must come down with his profits. The
landholder finds he must lower his rents, and he naturally curtails
his expenditure, he will go where he can buy cheapest. In the
end, perhaps, he finds he can save in his expenditure a good deal, if
not all, that he has been curtailed in his income; and. this saying
principle will descend through all classes, even to the labourer.
How necessary then must it be to prepare for the faillay timely sa-
vings; by carefully laying out money where it will go the furthest
and proluce most ? It is not intended here to argue, whether in a
country like this, low or high prices are the best for the nation;
some politicians say, that where a large portion of our expenses may
be put under the item of taxes which are demanded in full, low
prices and small profits will not answer, but this depends on
sive
cumstances ; an experiment tried on a very exten
scale has proved, that small profits and low prices command
a large amount of trade. Messrs. E. MOSES and SON have for
years made it their system of business. They have found that a
shilling profit on an article pays much better than a ten shilling profit,
because, v here they could have sold only one, they sell 20 or 30 ;
and after having for many years conducted their gigantic establish-
ment upon the small profit system, they have proved its efficacy
most completely. But it is not only the small profit which lower ,
the prices of their articles, it is in the purchase of material in great
quantities, with an unlimited command of capital, at the periods
most favourable for price, that they save all the profits of factors,
dealers, and middle men, so that the very coat which would cost
some tradesmen 50e. would cost them only 305., and the tradesman
who pays most for it wants the most profit ; so that the customer
who buys of one must perhaps pay 3/. 10s., and can be served by E.
MOSES and SON for 325. Of course, this can only be warranted
by a very extensive trade, far more extensive than ordinary people
imagine. By the same kind of reasoning it may be concluded that,
where one man sells a coat for 31. 10s.. and gets a pound by it,
Messrs. E. MOSES and SON will sell fifty, and get 51. by them.
Let any lady or gentleman walk over their establishment, and see
garments by thousands, and they will cease to wonder how Messrs.
E. MOSES and SON can supply the very best of everything at the
very low figure, which they have long adopted as their undeviating
charge for everything they make. Their stock of summer articles
has never been equalled in quality, variety, and elegance.

GLASGOW, Arun. 26.—Cotton—During the whole
of the week our market has been in a very depressed state—
transactions on a limited scale, and prices have fallen nearly
1/21 per lb. Middling Orleans will scarcely stand more than
6 yel. per lb., which is a reduction of 1,4 d. as compared with
the rate of prices in January last. In goods and yarns the
market is equally inanimate, and as the impression is that
prices must still further decline, it is likely that ere long the
works must resort to short time. Some inconvenience has
been caused this week from a strike of the calenderers and
cloth- lappers, of whom 800 have been out since Thursday.
They demand an abridgment in the hours of labour and cer-
tan other concessions, which the masters have resolved to
resist. Pig Iron—Our pig iron market closes for the week
at last Saturday's quotations, which have scarcely varied
during the week, and close to-day at 41s. for free on board
warrants, and cash against bill of lading; 425. 6d., No. 1

Clark, and he was 30 years of age. Ile was a single man,
and resided with his brother, in

evidence, said that on Thursday evening deceased came

A DILIGENCE ON FIRE.—We read in G, alignani,
that as the diligence which runs between Rodez and Albi
was proceeding a few days back, to the latter place, a fire
was discovered to have commenced in the interior. The
passengers had scarcely time to alight and aid in removing
the luggage, when the vehicle burst cut into flames, and
without the possibility of any succour being afforded. In a
few minutes it was entirely consumed. It is not known
how the fire originated.

Penzance Serpentine Marble Company. A collection of
articles formed of a beautiful Wine evidently of vol-
canic origin, possessing many af the qualities of gra-
Lite, but which being richly masked with steotiteeeinis

tiful marble. 'The stone is obttined from a rock near
the lighthouse at the Lizard Feint; Cornwall. Among
the articles exhibited are a cabinet of specimens. in-
cluding a piece of native copper ore, containing 95 per

,AIL WAY INTELLIGENCE.
PROPOSED NEW LINE OF RAILWAY TO UNITE MAN-
CHESTER, BIRKENHEAD, AND LIVERPOOL..---It is ru-
moured that a new line of railway to unite Manchester
with Liverpool, is in contemplation, extending by
tunnel from the Arcade to the Dingle, and thence form-
ing a junction with the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and
Cheshire Railway. Under the contemplated arrange-
ment, Liverpool would be freed from the injurious mo-
nopoly of the London and North-Western, and the manu-
facturers of Manchester enabled to dispatch their goods
by an independent route simultaneously either to Bir-
kenhead or Liverpool. We do not guarantee the report,
but we find it generally current.
RAILWAY TRAFFIC. —We have infinite satisfaction in
stating that Captain Iluish, the able manage of the
traffic department of the London and North-Western
Railway, has, during the past week, been ezaking a
searching inquiry into the traffic resources of the South
Wales district. Commencing at Abergavenns, he has
examined into the statistics of all the great iron districts
up to Merthyr, and thence onwards to Swansea, where
he has completed his inquiry into the copper end iron
trade of the Swansea and adjacent valleys. This inquiry
is preparatory to a revival of the Welsh Midland Rail-
way, or some modification of it, which shall secure to
the great companies whose interests are so advan-
tageously confided to his care, that portion of the traffic,
the district which` the bread WO raidflorty to—Glone
ester is said to divert, if not to impede.—Welshman.
GREAT
,WESTERN RAILWAY,—An excursion train,
from '.the metropolis to this city, on Sunday last, brought
600 passengers, many of whom were friends and family
connexions of local residents. The day was very fine
up to the evening,, when rain set in, but not much be-
fore the. departure of the train, and the excursionists,
therefore, were not debarred from visiting the beautiful
localities by whiCh our city is surrounded. On Monday
an excursion to London was provided for the inhabi-
tents of this city, at the exceedingly low fares of 10s.
and 6i. About 300 started from Bristol,2oo from Bath,
and 100 from Chippenham and Swindon. The weather
was unfavourable, or, we doubt not, that larger number's
would have taken advantage of the opportunity. The
train left at 6.30, and arrived at Paddington precisely
at eleven. On the return the traireckparienced a delay
of half an hour, bet Ween Corsham and Bath, .owing to
the machinery of a preceding goods train having be-
come deranged, so as to retard its progress, -and pre-
vent its reaching the siding et tho time appointed
,for
the excursion train to pass. With this trivial excep.
Lon the excursionists arrived at the ,terminus ,N.rithout
hindrance. We believe it is contemplated •tn run a
cheap, train to Lcnion on the opening of the Great )
Ex-
hibition, and extend the tickets over a day or-two; In
order that the passengers may-witness' the excitement
which will prevail in the metropolis at that juncture.—.
Bristol Nero lily.
Coax AND BANDON RAILWAY.—On Friday next the
first engine will be run through the tunnel at Goggin's-
hill; 'several of -the directors will proceed on the trip.
The tunnel is 900 yards long. ,
COUNTY or Dows AY.—Tbe Belfast and
County Dawn Railway Compaity have made their sum-
mer arrangements for the running of trains on both
branches of their line. Whilst on this subject, we may
congratulate the County Down Railway Company ()li-
the succei:s which the opening of the stone traffic from
SCrabo ' quarries has met with by the great and iticreas
ing demand for that article iu Belfast. That beautiful
sandstone, squared and poliehed, is actually the cheapest"
building material now used in the town, and we'expeci
to find in a few years all our now streets built of Seraleti
stone, rivalling in beauty and surpassing in cheapness of
construction, the boasted improvement in the newer parts
of Glasgow and Edinburgh.—/Vorthern Whig.
THE LEVIATHAN RAILWAYS AND THE OXFORD,
I WORCESTER, AND WOLVERHABIPTON.—We understand
that the Sill filed in Chancery at the instance of the
Great Western is being prosecuted. Notice of motion
for an injunction to restrain the carrying out of the
agreement with the London and North-Western has been
given. The cause will be heard in about a fortnight. If we
are not mistaken, both the London and North-Western and
Great Western are confident of success; but we do not
see that they con both bo right. It is thought, by some
whose opicion should be of value, that it is not very im-
portant to the Oxford, Worcester , and Wolverhampton
whichever way the decision is.—Herapath's: Journal.
AFFAIRS OF THE -MIDLA.ND RAILWAY.—Ii is under-
stood that the opposition to the Bill for the arrangement
with 50/. shareholders has been withdrawn-, and that it
will be passed soon, after th© re.-assembling of :Parlia-
ment. The holders of stock will, therefere; have their
dividends much improved, as the cessation of the 5 per
cent. guarantee on the 501. shares will add to the dis-
pouted balance for the year 1851, 68,000/ ; the arrange-
taent with the Leeds and Bradford Company will no
doubt produce a saving of 10,030/. per annum; if to this
we add the balance left over last half-year, which was
en excess of profit during the half-year over the divi-
dend, in round numbers, of 25.0001., the company will
have the sum of 103,0001., which is 1 per cent. per an-
num. The company paid 2 per cent. in 1850, so that,
with a small increase in traffic, and the abandonment of
the depreciation fund, the dividend on Midland stock
may be from 31 to 4 per cent.—Herapath's Journal.
DOVER, HASTINGS, AND BRIGHTON BAlLWAY.—Yes-
tcrday, before his Honour Master Brougham, the names
of certain allottees who had paid the deposit on their
shares, but had not signed the deed, were struck off the
list. Mr. Norris, the official manager, being directed to
take the case upon appeal to the court, the Master,
in view of the decision in Maudsley's case, deeming a
decision in favour of their exclusion doubtful. The
name of Mr. Dayrell was placed upon the list in respect
of 100 shares, on its being proved that he had acted and
signed a cheque for 5001., in opposition to evidence ten-
dered at a previous meeting, when it was sworn that he
did not interfere in the affairs of the company.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
MALTA, APRIL 22.—The exercise usually of late adopted
in the fleet was confined last week to the boats, until Wed-
nesday, when the Firebrand asked and obtained permis-
sion to exercise newly raised men. The exercise se-
lected and the Limo in which it was performed were as
follows;—Shifting maintopsailyard, 6 minutes 58 se-
conds; ditto boom and flying jibboom, 17 minutes. Bend-
ing sails, taking in one reef, and furling maintopsail, 5
minutes 40 seconds; ditto foretopssil, 5 minutes 40 se-
conds; ditto foresail, 3 minutes 40 seconds. Unbending
maintopsail, 2 minutes 30 seconds; ditto foretopssil, 3
minutes 15 seconds; ditto foresail, 1 minute 45 seconds.
Oa Thursday last Sir William Parker, with the party
on board the Merlin, reached Malta from the coast of
Sicily. There is some report that the fleet will put to
sea for their summer cruise during the month.
On Tuesday last the Albion and the Ganges, which
had been cruising among. the lonian Islands, were in
sight from the signal turret; they did not reach port,
owing to calms, till the evening of Thursday.
Tee Frolic and the Racer were to have left Corfu on
the 11th inst. to try rates of sailing. The Frolic would
then prcceed to Alexandria and the Racer return to
Corfu.
The Growler was under orders to leave Corfu for
Athens and Constantinople.
Antelope, with several invalids on board, left port last
night for Gibraltar and England, where she will be paid
off. Captain Steevene, late 44th, Lieutenant Moore,
Royal Marines, who has been obliged to retire from the
service, and Lieutenant A. Darby, late of Mediars, and
now invalided, are among her passengers, as are Lieut.
Pechell, R.N., and Lieut. Roberts, R.M., both of the
Superb.
Lord Ellesmere leaves to-day in his yacht for Corfu.
His Lordship's family proceeded home by way of
Trieste.
Ills Excellency the Governor will leave Malta on the
12th of May. It seems generally thought that the per-
mission given to his Excellency to resign the government
of the island will be recalled.
Lieutenant-Colonel Biackburne, 69th Regiment, left

this morning for England.
By the Turkish steam-frigate, which left Malta on the
14th inst., I informed you of the rising of Graham's
Island. Having since been enabled to possess myself of,
a copy of the plans drawn by Mr. Hall, master of the
Seourgo, and a copy of Lord F. IL Kerr's report
the to
no -
Sir
W. Parker, I had the former lithographed, and
tice published, and herewith forward a copy.
The only matter of interest is, the water was remark-,
ably clear when the rock was sounded, and the mouth of
the crater distinctly visible. At the border Mr. Hall
discovered two plates, apparently unbroken. This cir-
cumstance leads him to suppose that future discoveries
will prove shipwreck to have occurred. The further
survey of this dangerous island will probablye reserved
for Commander Spratt, daily expected to arrive Malta
to commission the Spithead steam-vessel, d.eat med to
the
re-
sume the survey suspended by the paying off of
Volsge surveying vessel.
The Banshee, which left Malta ou
.the 14th inst., with
mails for the lonian Islands was in port early this
morning, having completed, in somewhat under eight
days, a service in which ten days are usually employed.
