EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE.
Capital-500,0001.
(Incorporated under 7 and S Viet., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office ar3 —Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each class of risic—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 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 prcpertioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire Office 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
class 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 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.
Prospectuses, and every information may be obtained, on applica-
tion at the Office, or to any of its Agents.

THE FIRST SPRING HOLIDAY.
Fled now the sullen murmurs of the north,
The splendid raiment of the spring peeps forth;
Her universal green and the clear sky
Delight still more and more the gazing eye.
BLOOMFIELD.

The vernal equinox, which ushers in the "first spring holiday," is
welcomed by all with feelings of lively emotion ; and it is not a little
interesting to notice the pleasing changes and various preparations
which attend on this season of universal festivity.
In the Gregorian, as in the Julian year, Easter IS regarded as a
favourite festival; and the approach of this holiday diffuses life and
activity in every direction.
We cannot proceed through the public streets without noticing
the changes attendant, nor can the most apathetical observer refrain
from a participation in the impulses to which the " first spring holi-
day" gives rise.. While private residences present a re-decorated
appearance; in garden and frontage ; and display in their windows
hyacinths, crocuses, and other spring flowers, the more public tho-
roughfareidisplay marks of renovation and re-embellishment.
The trading establishments appear under " brighter colours," and,
externally and internally, show pleasing signs of preparation. The
season of Easter is a "commonwealth" of festivity—to share in
which the Senate itself suspends for a term its important delibera-
tions. It is particularly interesting, at this season of the year, to
notice the various preparations for public recreation and amusement._.
Hoardiugs arc placarded with immense posters, calling attention; in'
colossal characters, to excursion trains, steam-vessels, concerts,
theatres, fairs, and numerous other sources of enjoyment, and wher-
ever we look we can discover indications of the " spring holiday."
Among the many customs appertaining to this season, is that of the
adoption of new attire. Winter clothing is now cast off, and articles
more befitting the change of weather are assumed.
HI Atli and Co. feel confident that their present spring stock will,
on examination, elicit a large share of public approbation. A strict
conformity to the prevalent taste in fashion—a development of
improvements entirely original—a solidity and beauty of material
—art excellence of workmanship which challenges the most minute
insp, ction, and a general suneriority, coupled with a positive reduc-
tion in price, are the recommendations which Hyam and Co. have
to urge on the attention of the public.
Thre is no mistaking the system of Hyam and Co., who, while
saying what they do, take especial care to do what they say. Hyam
and Co. are no friends to a " sliding scale " system in prices ; nor
are the proprietors in the practice of advertising articles "from "
one price to another.
" One fixed price for one description of garment," is the rule upon
which they go, and from which they have never once diverged
during the long period of their trading career.
Hyam and Co., before concluding this notice of their Spring pre-
parations, would make pointed allusions to their article in juvenile
attire.
The brief vacation which occurs at Easter will afford an opportu-
nity to parents and others having the charge of youth, to jud4c of
the neatness, beauty, duribllity, and cheapness of this description of
Hyam and Co.'s stock ; and the proprietors trust, that their offers in
this (as well as in every other branch of their business) will be met
with a ready acceptance.

STRANGE -ACCIDENT ON THE CLYDE.—GLASGOW,
SATURDAY EVENING.—This forenoon an accident of a some-
what unusual :character occurred on the Clyde. The brig
James Ewing, for St. Kitt's and Antigua, was being towed
down the river by a tug, when, nearly opposite Greenock, from
some accident on one side or the other, she came in contact
with the brig George, of Newcastle, which was also being
towed down the river on her outward voyage to Montreal.
From the force of the collision the fluke of the anchor of the
James Ewing, which was suspended from the bows, was
driven through her timbers below the water-line, leaving a
hole similar to that which might have been produced by a
cannon-shot. As the vessel immediately began to fill every
exertion was made to get her into harbour, but the efforts
were unsuccessful, for she sank close to the entrance to
Scott's Dock. The crew made their escape without any diffi-
culty. The James Ewing had a valuable miscellaneous
cargo, consisting principally of manufactured goods, the
greater part of which will be ruined or damaged by the water.
It was expected that as the tide fell she would be immediately
discharged and the damage repaired, for in other respects the
ship is uninjured. We believe the other vessel did not sus-
tain any material injury. •
ANOTHER INTENDED NEN.-411 the Irish Court of
Queen's Bench a case is about to be brought before the
Court, in the shape of ' a motion for a writ of habeas
corpus, to remove a young lady from a convent in the west
of Ireland, and restore her to the care of , her father, whose
position, as proprietor and editor of one of the most
thorough-going Roman Catholic newspapers in the country,
will not be the least remarkable feature in the affair. The
young lady has been residing in the convent for the last
year, with the intention of becoming a nun, and her father,
who is strongly opposed to her adoption of that mode of life,
has made frequent but•fruitless efforts to have her restored
to his roof. tlis applications to the Roman Catholic prelate
of the locality to interfere have been all in vain; and his
olTcr to send back the girl to the convent at the end of a
year, if she were allowed to return to him, and still persisted
in her intention to embrace a religious life, undertaking then
to give her the fortune of 5001. which he had intended for
her, with his full consent that she should become a nun,
having been rejected, he has resolved on taking the only
1 course which remained open to him—that of appealing to
the laws of the cop try.

he made 146 anchors, the figure-heads, and the rudders,
the ornamental work on the sterns and cabin windows
being the most tedious task. The rigging is of thread,
most skilfully arranged.. The frame 7 feet long and
3 feet wide. Each ship has her anchor dropped; end

Dixon, F., Tavistock. Tin ore
Davey, Redruth. Zinc ores
Dublin Collection
Daniell, IVigmore-street, Cavendish-square, and of New
Bond-street. Two dessert services, the exquisite beauty
of designs of which, together with the purity of the
tints, and the skill displayed in the manufacture, will
doubtless procure as much notice andecommendation
in the Crystal Palace as have already been bestowed
on these works in New Bond-street, where they have
latterly been on view. Connoisseurs in china ware
will not require to be informed that in the reign of
Louis XV. a new colour was produced at Sevres, the
loVeliness of which charmed everybody at the luxu-
rious and polished court of that monarch, and, either
in compliment to the lady or to the tint, it was
forthwith named the Rose of Dubarry. All efforts
to copy it out of the celebrated manufactory
where it was invented signally failed ; and
even there each was the difficulty and preca-
riousness experienced in producing the genuine
piite tendre, which was best adapted for it, that the
use of the colour entirely ceased in 1769, twenty years
after its discovery. Various attempts have been made
of late years to revive this precious tint, but it was
found impossible to diffuse it evenly over the surface
of the article; and it has been reserved for the
manufactory at Colebrook-dale to solve the problem.
In one of the services to which we have alluded
the genuine " Rose llubarry" appears again in its
pristine loveliness, and in fact it surpasses in evenness
of tone the best specimens of the original artists. Tho
softness and depth of the glaze in this service also
deserve notice; and the design, in which a group of
dolphins plays a conspicuous part, is remarkable bold
and felicitous. Altogether it is a complete triumph
of English art, and will probably meet with no rival
from the most celebrated establishments of Europe.
It has already found a purchaser in a noble and dis-
tinguished patron of the fine arts. The other service,
which has also been manufactured at the Colebrook-
dale Works, has been designed for the head of a noble
family of historic name. It is remarkable for the
richness and elaborateness of its design; the fruit
dishes being embossed on the reverse—a novelty
which demonstrates the great progress which has been
made in this department. The gold decorations and
chasing are of peculiarly excellent workmanship, and
the armorial bearings of the noble house for which the
service has been ordered are cleverly introduced.
Dufour and Co., liastiugs. Collection of agricultural
implements, constructed under the patents of Dr.
Newingion
Dickens, Thomas, Middleton. Model of a warping mill
Debbie, Falkirk. An improved barometer. The smallest
divisions ou the dial are not less than one-tenth of an
inch, though each of these, answers to the thousandth
of an inch in the rise or fall of the mercury. It pre-
sents two indexes—the.one of the common range, and
the other pointing out the thousandths of an inch, and
it has two registers, moveable from the sides. Above
the dial is a superior-looking thermometer, with the
scales of Fahrenheit and Reau'nur
Dawson, North British Colour Works, Edinburgh.
Specimen of prussiate of potash
Dodge, Exeter. A hooting boot
Dusten, Devonport. New invention for setting hand-
saws
Dearlove, Leeds. Two musical instruments. The one
is a miniature violin, after Antonio Straduarius.
Although only 44 inches in length, this instrument
is perfect in all its parts. It is smaller than the cele.
brated petit violin of Mons. Jullien. The other in-
strument is a double bass, a model of what a 7 feet
6 inch double bass should be ; and yet its extreme
length is only 14 inches
Dyne, Wine London and South Coast Railway Com-
pany. Various inventions. The Eclipse, or Stan-
dard Life-boat. It is formed of diagonal battens, laid
similar to that of lattice work, and its outer sheeting
is formed of gotta percha; its buoyancy is 350 cubic
feet of air, capable of sustaining upwards of 91 tons.
It has in its bottom 3,600 holes, half an inch in dia-
meter to allow all water shipped to pass off ; it has a
convexed bottom 30 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 18
inches deep, in which are placed three perforated fins,
for the purpose of steadying and keeping the boat in
an upright position, acting when the boat lurches from
either beam similar to a paddle-wheel, a reaction
taking place through the perforated parts, which will
be seen to multiply its weight of water to four times
its amount. In this convexed part, and between the
fins, is contained two tons weight of water, which
must be displaced therefrom before the boat can turn
over; but such will be almost impossible, it being
more than half the weight of the boat; but, as a pro•
vision against such a lamentatable disaster, she turns
over on her quarter 16 cwt. of water, which rights her
again. It may be remarked that the 2 tons and 16 cwt.
of water referred to is not one ounce weight to the
boat when in her upright position. At the stem and
stern, and on each beam and quarter, is run a bow,
to which is connected galvanised springs, which will
not corrode, and will be found of the greatest utility
in the event of collision, which act similar to that of
railway buffers.—A Gutta Percha Life-buoy, for the
rescue of individuals from drowning, or to enable a
stranded vessel to communicate with the shore. It is
intended to be placed at the stern of the ship, so that
on an alarm being given " A man overboard !" the
man at the helm can dislodge it instantly, and as it
falls into the sea a fuzee becomes ignited, which burns
with a brilliant light, guiding the sinking man to it.
Should it occur at night, four upright are placed upn
it, containing rockets, blue and other lights, which
ignite on being drawn out, thus acting as a beacon to
the crew.—An Emigration Life-beet, intended fer a
first-class vessel, of the following dimensions: 20 feet
long by 14 wide. It is united by strong bolts, and is
very portable from the mode of its construction,
which allows, it to be folded up in the compass of 20
feet long by 2 feet 6 inches wide. On occasion of
shipwreck it is capable of supporting 100 persons, with
provisions for seven days, allowing to each individual
two and a half pounds of food and one pint of
water per day, in addition to which it may be
made available for a portion of the cargo, and can
ho put in requisition in a few minutes.—A ILife
Launch, rendered buoyant by inflated cushions placed
under the gunwale, which protect it from injury when
corning in contact with rocks or the tides of a ship in
being lowered for use. A boat constructed on this
principle, from 25 to 30 feet in length, contains up-
wards of a thousand gallons of air, and would support
600 persons, were it possible for so many to attach
themselves to it. The boat is a 153 furailhed with 5

tank of fresh water, and the gunwales with lockers
containing waterproof bags of pate percha for the re•
ceptiou of provisions, a waterproof awning of gutta
percha lies rolled up on the gunwale, which can be
raised so as to form a complete protection from the in-
clemency of the weather, over which a lamp or other
signal of distress is placed. The cushions may be re-
moved when the vessel is in port, and may be used as
a common boat; it will serve as a paddle box boat on
board of a steamer, the cushions acting as fenders in
the event of concussion.—The Gotta. Percha Emigra-
tion Life-boat is constructed with. ribs moving on
pivots, in a line with the keel, the' gudwales folding
down in the same direction; it posseises, therefore,
this recommendation, that fifty of ;these boats can be
packed.in the space usually occupied by five ordinary
ones.—A Gutta Percha Life-vest, capable of being
inflated at pleasure, which may be worn under or over
they dress, forming a protection against the weather
when not required as a life-preserver; this will be
shown on a man in connexion with a horse equipped
with buoyant belts, showing how animals may be made
useful in the event of a wreck, by forming a communica-
Sion with the shorn; this is an interesting model. There
are also patented various plans of life belts,which possess
these recommendations over all others, that they re-
quire no tying, but are fixed round the body, and fas-
tened by a clasp or spring, consequently not a moment
'is lost in times of emergency. They also contain re-
ceptacles for money, papers, and small valuables.
Also buoyant boxes, cases, belts, and cushions for
ditto, which can be attached to property •of any de-
scription withoat adding to their bulk; and buoyant
camp stools for steamer, &e.—A " Stone Life-boat
and Buoy" will be shown floating on the surface of
the water, independent of any buoyant properties
being added thereto; also a newly invented article, a
" Life•boat Comb," for the safety of boats when
boarding wrecked or distressed vessels in heavy surfs.

Dow biggin and Co .(now Holland and Sons), 13, Mount-

carpet, manufactured by that firm by command of her
Majesty. It is a velvet carpet, made after the design
of M. Gruner, and consists of a variety of rich ara-
besque forms and wreaths of flowers made to resemble
nature, surrounding a delicate and exquisite centre
piece, in which is woven in Roman letters the year
1851. The colours in the wreaths of flowers are re-
markably- fine, and are arranged with the greatest
possible taste; and although the colours employed ate
of the richest and most beautiful character, they are
all so perfectly well balanced as not to permit of any
one or more colours distracting the eye, c r destroying
the calm and agreeable ensemble which pervades the
whole of this admirable production. The dimensions
of the carpet are 42 feet by 17 feet
Driver, James, Wakefield. A novel timepiece
Dalton, John, Hollingworth. Machine to print calico
on both sides. It is intended to be exhibited as ap-
plied to the printing of pocket handkerchief+, the same
pattern minutely corresponding in outline being im-
pressed on both sides of the calico. The machine is
also constructed so that when not required to print on
both sides, it will serve as a double printing machine,
capable of printing two pieces at the same time. The
distinguished feature of novelty in the construction of
the machine consists in the adoption of a new descrip-
tion of revolving cylinder, instead of the ordinary iron
cylinder, whereby the inventor is enabled to dispense
entirely with the use of the blanket and lapping, and
to produce a more uniform impression from the en-
graved roller. A saving of one-third in power, and
the avoidance of blanket, seams, lapping marks, and
other disadvantages attendant upon the present sys-
tem, are also effected
