EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE.
Capital-500,0001.
(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office aro—Moderate and equitable
Rates 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 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 proportiohate 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 Office will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to tire, 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
Blass of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to 11.11 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.
Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

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

THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION:

Dispatches have been received at the Admiralty
from Captain Kellett, C 8., of her Majesty's ship
Herald, dated at SOO, the 14th of October, 1850, on
his return from Bebring Straits. The Herald had
communicated with her Majesty's ship Plover, on the
10th of July, at Chamisso Island, where the Plover
had passed the preceding winter. The two ships pro-
ceeded to the northward until they sighted the pack
ice, when the Herald returned to Cape Lisburne in
quest of Captain Collinson's expedition, and on the
31st fell in with her Majesty's ship Investigator,
which had made a surprisingly short passage of
twenty-six days from the Sandwich Islands. The
Herald remained cruising off Cape Lisburne, and
again fell in with the Plover or. the 13th of August,
on her return from Point Barrow, Commander Moore
having coasted in his boats, and minutely examined
the several inlets as far as that point from Icy Cape,
without gaining any intelligence of the missing ex-
pedition. Commander Moore and his boat's crew
had suffered severely from exposure to cold. Captain
Kellett, having fully victualled the Plover, ordered
her to winter in Grantley Harbour (her former an-
chorage at Chamisso Island not being considered
safe), and then returned to the southward on his way
to England.
Dispatches have also been received from Captain
Collinson, C. 8., of her Majesty's ship Enterprise,
aed Commander M'Clure, of her Majesty's ship
Investigator, of which the following are copies
" Her-Biajesty's ship Enterprise,i ,
"Port Clarence, Sept.-13, 1850.
" Sir,—l have the honour to transmit an account of
the proceedings of her Majesty's ship under my com-
mand since leaving Oahu, on the 30th of June.

importance to thoroughly examine. In the event of thus
far succeeding, and the season continuing favourable for
further operations, it would be my anxious desire to get
to the northward of Melville Island, and resume our
search along its shores and the islands adjacent as long
as the navigation can be carried on, and then secure for
the winter in the most eligible position which offers.
"2. In the ensuing spring, as soon as it is practicable
for travelling parties to start, I should dispatch as many
as the state of the crew will admit of in different direc-
tions, each being provided with 40 days' provisions, with
directions to examine minutely all bays, inlets, and is-
lands towards the N.E., ascending occasionally some of
the highest points of land, so as to be enabled to obtain
extended views, being particularly cautious in their ad-
vance to observe any indication of a break up in the ice,
so that their return to the ship may be effected without
hazard, even before the expenditure of their provisions
would otherwise render it necessary.
"3. Supposing the parties to have returned without
obtaining any clue of the absent ships, and the vessel
liberated about the Ist of August, my object would then
be to push on towards Wellington Inlet, assuming that
that channel communicates with the Polar Sea, and
search both its shores, unless in eo doing some indication
should be met with to show that parties ,from any of
Captain Austin's vessels had previously done so, when I
should return, and endeavour to penetrate itilhe direc-
tion of' Jones's; Sound, carefully examining every place
that was practicable. Sir, should our efforts to reach
this point be successful,; and in the route no traces are
discernible of the long missing expedition, I should not
then be enabled longer to divest myself of the feelings,
painful as it must be to arrive at sale a conclusion, that
0.1 human aid would then, be perfectly unavailitfe
taerefore, under ouch a conviction, I would think it my
duty, if possible, to return to England, or at all events
endeavour to reach some port that would insure that
object upon the following year.
"4. In the event of this being our last communication, I
would request you to assure their Lordships that no ap-
prehension whatever need be entertained of our safety
until the autumn of 1854, as we have on board three
years of all species of provision, commencing from the
Ist of September proximo, which, without much depri-
vation, may be made to extend a period of four:years; as,
moreover, whatever is killed by the hunting parties I in-
tend to issue in lieu of the usual rations, which will still
farther protract our resources.
"It gives me great pleasure to say that the good
effects of the fruit and vegetables (a large quantity of
which we took on board at Oahu) are very perceptible
in the increased vigour of the men, who at this moment
are in excellent condition as it is possible to desire, and
evince a spirit of confidence and a cheerfulness of dis-
position which are beyond all appreciation.
" 5. Should difficulties apparently insurmountable en-
compass our progress so as to render it a matter of doubt
whether the vessel could be extricated, I should deem it
expedient in that case not to hazard the lives of those
intrusted to my charge after the winter of 1852, but in
the ensuing spring quit the vessel with sledges and boats,
and make the best of our way either to Pond's Bay,
Leopold Harbour, the Mackenzie, or for whalers, accord-
ing to circumstances.
" Finally. In this letter I have endeavoured togive an
outline 'of what I wish to accomplish (and what, under
moderately favourable seasons, appears to me attain-
able), the carrying out of which, however, not rest-
ing upon human exertions, it is impossible even to
surmise if any, or what, portion may be success.
ful. But my object in addressing you is to place
their Lordships in possession of my intentions up to
the latest period, so far as possible to relieve their minds
from any unnecessary anxiety as to our fate, and having
done this, a duty which is incumbent, from the deep
sympathy expressed by their Lordships, and partici-
pated in by all classes of our countrymen, in the inter-
esting object of this expedition, I have only ts add that
with the ample resources which a beneficens4 Govern-
ment and a generous country have placed at our diposal
(not anything that can add to our comfort being want-
ing) we enter upon this distinguished service with a
firm determination to carry out; as far as in our feeble

gust, from whence I shaped a course for Cape Lisburne,
in anticipation of falling in with the Herald or the
Plover. Not, however, seeing either of these vessels,
and finding nothing deposited on shore, I went on to
Wainwright Inlet, the last rendezvous appointed. Here
we communicated on the 15th, and being alike unsuc-
cessful in obtaining any information, I stood to the
north. made the ice the following morning, and reached
the latitude 72 deg. 40 min. N. in the meridian of 159
deg. 30 min. W. without serious obstruction.
Here, however, the pack became so close that it was
impossible to make way in any direction except
to the southward. Having extricated ourselves
by noon on the 19th, we continued to coast along the
edge of the main body, which took a south-easterly
trend, running through the loose streams, so as not to
lase sight of tight pack. At 4 A.M., on the 20th, we
were in the meridian of Point Barrow, and 28 miles to
the north of it, when we found open water to the N.E.,
in which we sailed, without losing sight of the ice to the
north until the morning of the 21st, when we were ob-
structed by a heavy barrier trending to tho S.W. A
thick fog coming on we made a board to the north, in
order to feel the pack edge in the upper part of the bight,
and not to leave any part unexplored. Having satisfied
myself that no opening existed in this direction, we bore
away to the south, running through heavy floes closely
packed, and pushing to the estward when opportunity
offered. In this, however, we were unsuccessful,
being compelled to pursue a westerly course, the floes
being very heavy end hummocky. By eight P.M. we
were within thirty miles of the land, and having clear
weather, could see the ice closely packed to the south,
that left no doubt in my mind that a stop was
put to oar proceeding, in this direction, by the ice
butting so close ou the shoal coast as to leave no chance
that our progress along it would justify the attempt to
reach Cape Bathurst, a distance of 570 miles, during the
remaining portion of this season; and finding this opi-
nion was coincided in by those officers on board qualified
to form an opinion on the subject, I determined to lose
no time in communicating with Point Barrow, but to
attempt the passage further north, in hopes that the
lane of water seen last year by the Herald and Plover
would afford me an opening to the eastward. I therefore
reluctantly proceeded again to the west, and turning the
pack edge 15 miles further to the south than it was on
the day after we left Wainwright Inlet, we followed the
edge of a loose pack greatly broken up until we reached
163 deg. W. longitude, when it took a sudden turn to
the north, in which direction we.followed it until the
morning of the 27th, when we were in latitude 73 deg.
20 min., and found the pack to the westward trend-
ing southerly. I therefore plied to the eastward, en-
deavouring to make way, but such was its close con-
dition that we could not work, although we might
have warped through had the condition of the ice in
that direction afforded us any hope; but this, I am sorry
to say, was not the case, and, on the cobtrary, the fur-
ther we entered; tha larger the floes became, leaving us -
rin thick weather often in great difficulty where to find a
lane. On the 29th the thermometer had fallen to 28 deg.,
and there being no prospect of our being able to accom-
plish anything towards the fulfilment of their Lordships'
instructions this season, I bore away for Point Hope,
where.l arrived on the 31st, and found a bottle deposited
by th© Herald, which informed me that it was intended
to pace tho Plover in Grantley Harbour this season. I
accordingly proceeded thither, with the view of taking
her place for tie winter and enabling Commander Moore
to recruit his ship's company by going to the scuthward.
On my arrival I found her inside preparing her winter
quarters, and having examined and buoyed the bar, I at-
tempted to take this vessel inside, but failed in doing so,
owing to the change of wind from south to north having re-
duced the depth of water four feet, and had to relieve the
ship of 100 tons, which was quickly done by the opportune
arrival of the Herald, before she was released from a very
critical position. The tides being irregular, the rise and
fall depending principally on the wind, and that wind
which occasions the highest water producing a swell on
the bar, it became a question whether a considerable
portion of the ensuing season might not be lost in get-
ting the ship out of Grantley Harbour, and on consulting
Captains Kellett and Moore, finding it to be their opinion,
founded on the experience of two years, that the whalers
coming from the south pass through the straits early in
Juno, whereas the harbours are blocked until the middle
of July, I have come to the conclusion that I shall
batter perform the important duty confided in me by re-
turning to the south, and replenishing my provisions, in-
stead of wintering on the Asiatic shore, where there is
not a prospect of our being the slightest use to the mis-
sing expedition. It is therefore my intention to proceed
to Hong-Kong, it being nearer than Valparaiso, and the
cold season having sot in, my stores and provisions will
not be exposed to the heat of a double passage through
the tropics; and as I shall not leave until the Ist of
April, I may receive any further instructions your Lord-
ships may please to communicate.
" The Plover has been stored and provisioned, and
such of her crew as are not in a fit state to contend with
the rigour of a further stay in these latitudes have been
removed and replaced by Captain Kellett, and the para-
graphs referring to her in my instructions fulfilled.
" I have directed Commander Moore to communicate
annually with an island in St. Lawrence Bay, in
latitude 65 deg. min. N., and longitude 176 deg. 43 min.
W., which is much resorted to by the whalers, and
where any communication their Lordships may be
pleased to send may be deposited by them, as they are
not in the habit of cruising on this side of the straits; and
1 have requested Captain Kellett to forward to the Ad-
miralty all the information on this head he may obtain
at the Sandwich Islands.

" It is my intention to proceed again to the north, and
remain in the most eligible position for affording assist-
ance to the Investigator, which vessel having been
favoured with a surprising passage from the Sandwich
Islands, was fallen in with by the Herald, on the 31st of
July, off Point Hope, and again, on the sth of August,
by the Plover, in lat. 70 dog. 44 min. N., and lon. 159
deg. 52 min. W., when she was standing to the north
under a press of sail, and in all probability reached the
vicinity of Point Barrow 15 days previous to the Enter-
prise, when Captain M'Clure, having the whole season
before him, and animated with the determination so
vividly expressed in his letter to Captain Kellett, has
most likely taken the inshore route, and I hope before
this period reached Cape Bathurst; but as he will be
exposed to the imminent risk of being forced on a shoal
shore and compelled to take to his boats, I shall not
forsake the coast to the northward of Point Hope until
the season is so far advanced as to insure their having
taken up their winter quarters for this season.
" I have received from my officers and ship's com-
pany that assistance and alacrity in the performance of

" Sir,—As I have received instructions from Captain
Collinson, C. 8., clear and unembarrassing (a copy of
which I enclose), to proceed to Cape Lisburne in the
hope of meeting him in that vicinity, as he anticipates
being detained a day or two by the Plover in Kotzebue
Sound, it is unnecessary to add that every exertion shall
bo made to reach that rendezvous, but I can scarce
venture to hope that even under very favourable
circumstances I shall be so fortunate as to accomplish
it ere the Enterprise will have rounded that Cape, as
from her superior sailing she hitherto having beaten us
by eight days to Cape Virgins, and from Magellan
Straits to Oahu six. It is, therefore, under the probable
case that this vessel may form a detached part of the expedition that I feel it my duty to state, for the informa-
tion of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, the
course which, under such a contingency,

" Her Majesty's ship, Enterprise,
" Oahu, June 29, 1850.
" Memorandum.—As soon as her Majesty's ship
under your command is fully complete with provisions,
fuel, and water, you will make the best of your way to
Cape Lisburne, keeping a good look out for Herald,' or
casks, and firing guns in foggy weather after passing St.
Lawrence. The whalers also may afford you informa-
tion of our progress. _

"Should you' obtain no intelligence, you will under-
stand that I intend to make the pack lose to the Ame-
rican shore, and pursue the first favourable opening west
of the Coast Stream, pressing forward towards Melville
_lsland. In the event of mooting kind, it is most pro—
bable' that r would pursue tho southern shore, but con-
spicuous marks will be erected, if practicable, and in-
formation be buried at a ten foot radius.

" As it is necessary to be prepared fur the contin-
gency of your not being able to follow by the ice closing
in, or the severity of the weather, you will in that case
keep the Investigator as close to the edgo of the pack as
is consistent with her safety, and remain there until the
season compels you to depart, when you will lock into
Kotzebue Sound for the Plover, or information regard-
ing her position, and having deposited under her charge
a twelvemonth's provisions, you will proceed to Valpa-
raiso, replenish, and return to the Straits, bearing in
mind that the months of June and July are the most
favourable. _ _

" A letter from the hydrographer relative to the va-
riation of the compass is annexed, and you will bear in
mind that the value of these observations will be greatly
enhanced by obtaining the variation with the ship's
head at every second or fourth point round the compass
occasionally, and she should be swung for deviation in
harbour as often as opportunities may offer.
" Should you not find the Plover, or that any casualty
has happened to render her inefficient as a depot, you
will take her place; and if (as Captain Kellett sup-
poses) Kotzebue Sound has proved too exposed for a
winter harbour, you will proceed to Grantley Harbour,
leaving a notice to that effect on Chamisso Island. The
attention of your officers is to be called, and you will
read to your ship's company the remarks of Sir J.
Richardson concerning the communication with the Es-
quimaux, contained in the Arctic report received at
Plymouth.
" Your operations in the season '5l cannot be guided
by me, nor is there any occasion to urge you to proceed
to the north-east; yet it will be highly desirable previ-
ous to entering the pack that you completed provisions
from whalers, and obtained as much reindeer meat as
possible. Captain Kellett's narrative will point out
where the latter is to be had in most abundance, and
where coal can be picked up on the beach; but husband
the latter article during the winter, by using all the drift
wood in your power.
" In the event of leaving the Straits this season, you
will take any weak or sickly men out of the Plover, and
replace them from your crews, affording Commander
Moore all the assistance in your power, and leaving with
him Mr. Miertitching, the interpreter; instructions with
regard to whose accommodation you have received, and
will convey to the captain of the Plover.
" RICHARD COLUMN.
" To Commander M'Clure, of her Majesty's
ship Investigator.
" Should it be the opinion of Commander Moore that
the services of the Investigator's ship's company in ex-
ploring parties during the spring would be attended with
material benefit to the object of the expedition, he will,
notwithstanding these orders, detain you for that pur-
pose; but care must be taken that your of eiency as a
sailing vessel is not crippled by the parties not returning
in time for the opening of the sea.

THE SLOANES' CASE AGAIN.
LIBERAL OFFER OF MR. JOHN COLLETT, LATE M.P.
FOR ATIILONE.—It will be recollected by the public that
a few days ago a paragraph appeared in The Sun, which
war afterwards copied into most of the morning journals,
stating that it was the intention of Mr. Sloane to apply
"to the Curt of Queen', Bench to remove the indictment
ne,..ainst him from the Central Criminal Court, and alio
that the subject had been discussed at a moeting of the
board of guardians for the %Vest London Union," when
Mr. Pontifex said ha had complied with the usual forms
to prevent such a stop on the part of Mr. Sloane, although
he had received no notice of such an application. The
paragraph then went on to sate that "Information had
reached Mr. Hoe, the officer who holds the warrant
against Mrs. Sloane, that she is residing at Boulogne
under an assumed minis, awl that such is the fact that
officer expresses his cmviction, and in consequence ho
ht:s had several interviews with the board of guardians
and Mr. Pontifex on the subject of the propriety of ap-
plying to the Government to aid, through the French
authorities, her apprehension, in the event of
her being identified and residing there. But
as his going over there would be attended with consider-
able expense, he (Roe) objected to do so unless Meta-
nified by the guardians. It appears, however, that there
is a strong disinclination on the part of the guardians to,
do so. On the subject of that part of the paragrai k
which we have quoted above, Mr. Alderman Humphery
has received the following letter from John Collett,
Esq., making an offer on his own part which ought to
put the guardians of the West London Union to the
blush.
The following is a copy of the letter:—
" Lake House, Cheltenham, Jan. 24,1651.
" My dear Humphery,—l cut the enclosed (see para-
graph) out of to-day's Timcs, to say that if the board of
guardians and Mr. Pontifox still decline sending the
officer Roe to Boulogne, for the purpose of identifying
and apprehending Mrs. Sloane, I will most cheerfully
send a draft fur all the expenses of his trip the moment
I am acquainted with the amount. Believe me always
very faithfully yours,

"Jomi COLLETT.

" Alderman Ilumphery, M.P."
Mr. Collett has already contributed 51. towards the
relief of the unfortunate girl, Jane Wilbred. All com-
ment upon this letter is useless; the facts speak for them
selves: and how will the West London Union Guar-
dians answer to the public for allowing a private indivi-
dual to perform their duties in this matter at his own ex-
pense?

office at North Shields. Some time previous to the
opening of the office a mob of seamen were observed
congregating about its entrance, and, some captains hav-
ing brought crews to sign articles, an attack was made
upon them. The captains were hustled and the men
thrown on to the quay, and told if they did not quit they
would be pitched into the Tyne. They of course made
off, but the offices were barricaded up, and no one durst
enter. Two seamen who had gone to the offices were
kept in an upper room until midnight. The magistrates,
after a consultation, issued a notice ordering searkona'
to enter
to congregate in the streets; and through
conduct of Mr. Mitchell, the suPerintengentmoorr mis-
the mob was cleared away without
