Capital-500,000/.
- (Incorporated under 7 and S Vict., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office ar3 —Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each class of risk—innual 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
anmadeis. To
shelem iure this object the Equitable Fire Lim-
for Flre Insurance can only be ap-
rane.Ctorumeprayte
The eositapbrdm.
goached 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 Mee will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to tin- 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 this view an annual investigation will be made into each
class ef 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.

Although the lowest rates of premium consistent with security
have been charged by the Office, it has for many years been enabled
to make very large returns to septennial Insurers.
LIFE DEPARTMENT.
The important advantages offered by the plan and constitution of
the Life Department of this Society are—
That Insurers are protected by a large invested capital, upon which
there is which to pay, and for which no deduction of any kind
Is
made, enables the Directors to give the whole of the Profits
to insuring members.
That the Profits are divided annually amongst all members of five
years' standing, and applied towards reducing life insurance to the
lowest possible rates of premium.

been made for the past nine years to members of five years' stand-

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Joseph Lucas Horrochs, who was some days ago
charged before the Lord Mayor with having feloniously
and knowingly uttered a forged bill of exchange for the
payment of 4301. 9s. 7d., with intent to defraud the Lon-
don Joint Stock Bank, was brought up for final exami-
nation.
Mr. Bush,-of the firm' of Bush and Mullens, solicitors
to the Committee of Bankers for Protection against For-
geries and Frauds, attended for the prtoeTution.
The folloe int; is the additional evidence uprn the
case:--
Mr. Robert Mackenzie—l am a merchant at Dundee,
and carry on businese with Jamiol Ramsey the younger,
under the firm of Mackie:alt., Ramsey and Cc. There
is no other firm of that name in Dundee. The accept-
ance to the bill produced is not that of myself or my
partner, or of any person authorised by me. No person
accepts bids for our firm but myself and my partner,
and I know nothirg of the prisoner or the drawers of
the bill.
The prisoner, it will be recollected, had been taken
into custody by the direction and in the pressnce of Mr.
Ambrose Moore, one of the directors of the London
Joint Stock Bank, to whom he stated, uponbeing asked
whether he had any explanation to give respecting the
bill, that he was endeavouring to make an irrangemeLt
by which it would be withdrawn. • 'He also stated at the
first examination that ho was not the delinquent, and
that the whole was a tissue of cunning tesiptation and
treachery to which he had been a victim, and that he
chose openly to admit the fact and plead "guilty" to the
charge.
Mr. Bush, stated yesterday, after the stove examina-
tion was concluded, that he had another krious charge
of a similar kind which it was his duty to detail.
The following is the evidence in the second case:—
The prisoner having been put to the bar was charged
with having feloniously and knowipglY uttered a bill of
exchange for the payment of 602 r, ts. 5d.,-.with intent
to defraud Edward Loyd the younger ad others.
Mr. Robert Mackenzie', one of the witsesses examined
upon the former charge, said the acceptance to the bill
for 6021. 3s. sd. is not that of myself or my partner or
any person authorized by me.
Mr. William Bamber, the younger, said--I am cashier
to Messrs. Loyd, Entwistle, and Co., of Manchester,
bankers. I produce the waste bill book. I also produce
a bill of exchange dated Hamburgh, 21th of December,
1850, drawn by Weber and Scheer at four months after
date, upon Messrs. Mackenzie, Ramse7, and Co., of
Dundee, for 6021. 3s. sd. It purports to be accepted by
Mackenzie, Ramsey, and Co., and to 5i3 payable at the
London and Westminster Bank in Lenten. I received
this bill in the course of business from, I believe, a clerk
of the plisoner's, on the 4th of Jemmy last. The me-
inorandum produced was brought at the same time. I
know the prisoner's handwriting, ald have seen him
write. The endorsement on the bill, " aorrocks, Scheer,
and C 0.," is in the prisoner's handwriting, and the me-
morandum is also in his handwriting.
,The prisoner has
been known as a customer to our hcuse for about two
years. The account of llorrocks, Scheer' and Co., was
opened at our house about fifteen months ago. It was
to that account the amount of the bill was credited, and
there is an entry of it in my writing in the waste bill
book produced.
The prisoner, upon being addressed in the usual terms
by the Lord Mayor, said—Circumstances have occurred
since I first appeared here which induced mo to hope—
and I believe I can if I have an opportunity, and be re-
manded—that I might bring forward circumstances
which will put a different light on these transactions as
regards myself. Therefore I hope that your Lordship
will grant me a remand, in order theft I may have that
opportunity.
The LORD MAYOR said he had no power, as the pri-
soner must know, to try the case,, and nothing that
could be urged by the prisoner e6uld alter his deter-
mination to commit. The prisoner would at the trial
have the opportunity of stating anything which might
operate in altering the effect of the circumstances alleged
against him.
Mr. Bush said, there were other forgeries with which
it might be considered necessary to charge the prisoner
at the Central Criminal Court, one of which was for
5721. 75., and another for 2151. 7s. d.
The prisoner was then committed for trial on the two
first accusations.

W OR SHI P- S T REET.
Mary Ann Mayne, a woman of the town of masculine
appearance, was placed at the bat before Mr. Arnold,
charged with having, in conjunction with another woman
not in custody, administered a quantity ..of chloroform
or other deleterious drug, to Mr, John Ewenson, and
robbed him of gold and silver moneys to the value of
101. 9s. 6d.
'I ho prosecutor, a tall powerfal person, stated—l re-
side at Allanniouth, in Northumberland, and am master
of a trading vessel between Hull and the Thames. My
vessel arriv. d in the St. Katharine Docks on Thursday
afternoon, and between seven and eight o'clock in the
evening I went to a tavern on Tower-hill, to meet a
friend, who is captain of another ship,- upon business,
and during the transaction of ;it we ;each drank three
classes of ale. That Is att end; &link We' whole day:
I was as perfectly sober then as I am now, knew tho-
roughly what I was about, and as a proof of it I may
mention, that having changed a sovereign to pay for the
ale, I placed the change. l9s. 6d., in one end of my
purse, and saw that I had 91. 10s. in gold in
the other. On placing the purse in my pocket
my friend and I left the house together, and had
only gone a short distance , when we were ac-
costed by the prisoner, but we did not notice what she
said and went on, and after the close of oar conversation
we separated, and I returned in. the direction of the
docks to rejoin my ship. On going back a short way,
however, I was again stopped by the prisoner, who
pressed me to go home with her, and kept walking at
my side ; but I refused, and the instant I had done so
she gave me a dab on the mouth with something like a
handkerchief she had in her hand, and from that mo-
ment I had not the slightest recollection of anything that
took place until I was woke
pp about four o clock
on the following morning by a '
Powerful black man, and
found myself in a miserable room, lying upon a bed
with all my clothes on. The hack man peremptorily
ordered me out of the house, and I was so confused that
I mechanically obeyed him, but after walking down the
street in the air a short way I thought of my money,
and on thrusting my hand into toy pocket I found that
the purse and, money were both gone. I shortly after
met a policeman, whom I told that I had been
robbed, and having described the circumstances
and the house I had been Awned out of, he at
once took me back to it, and on entering the same
room we found the woman in bed with the black
man. The constable ordered het to sit up, and the in-
stant she did so I recognised her as the same woman who
had given me the dab on the mouth, and from beside her
the officer picked up my handkerchief. The constable
then gave the prisoner over to another officer, and
searched the place, though without finding any of my
money; but upon examining the Privy belonging to the
house he fished up my green silk purse from the top of
the soil, but all the money was gone.
Taylor, a constable of the U division, said that upon
meeting the prosecutor, he had a confused stupified ap-
pearance, but on his describing the
house he at once
knew that he was in a notorious place called George-
yard, Wentworth-street, Whitechapei, to which he took
him, and he identified the prisoner without the slightest
hesitation. The prosecutor's handkerchief was lying on
the bed, the empty purse was discovered down the wa-
tercloset, as he bad described, but the prisoner bad only
a few shillings and halfpence in her pockets, and denied
having been near Tower-hill at all.
Mary Williams, an old woman having care of the
lodgings in two houses in George-yard, said—l know
the prisoner, who lives •in No. 6, and occupies one of
the rooms down stairs with a black man. About two
o'clock last Friday morning the prisoner came home and
asked me to open the door for her, Which I did, and she
went in. At the same time I
- saw a man with another
woman standing outside the door; the man did not ap-
pear to me to be sober, and I don't know that the pro-
secutor is the same, but be looked like a seafaring man,
and as soon as the prisoner had entered her own room
I returned back into mine and went to bed.
When called upon for her defence, the prisoner said
—I never saw that man before I got house last night,
and then found him standing at mydoor with another
woman. lam not the woman who robbed him, and he
meta have been taken into my room by the other woman.
The prosecutor applied to the magistrate to decide
upon the case at once, as his ship, which was then in the
docks, was ordered to sail al most immediately, and be
should be a still more severe loser than he already had
been; but
Mr. ARNOLD told him he had no power to do that;
the prisoner must be sent for trial before a jury, but, as
the sessions were then sitting, the case
would no doubt
in a few days be disposed of.
The depositions were then taken by Mr. Vine, the
chief clerk, and the prisoner was fully conaitted for trial.

THE COUNTRY MARKET'S.
IPSWICH, MAR"' 18.
We had at this day's market a remarkably small supply of
grain. The continued wet weather has caused the wheat to
be in bad condition ; nevertheless the short supply caused
millers to buy on same terms as last week, and indeed a turn
was in favour of the grower. The malsters were unwilling
to give any advance on barley, preferring to give over steeping,
and what sales were made were only at last week's prices.
Other things as of late.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states ;--More tone

Our own farmers
brought a fair supply of wheat for to-day's market, and millers
being free buyers the whole was well cleared off at is over the
prices current last week. Foreign is in more request, and full
prices obtained for ship-parcels ; granaried lots do not yet
move off, but the stack of really good wheat is not large. For

barley of first quality and weight we experience a good
demand, and such is rather scarce, fetching is advance;
grinding also is in some improved request. Other descriptions
of spring corn are quite neglected. The import of linseed
does not come on the market ; a moderate business has been
done from warehouse at fully late prices. A fair amount of
business passing in cakes, both English and fine foreign. In
rapeseed we are without transactions, and for cakes prices are
somewhat irregular.

LIVERPOOL, MARCH 18.—Higher rates generally were
required at the beginr ing of business at our Corn Exchange
this morning. The millers and dealers were reluctant to ac-
cede to these, but ultimately a fair extent of transactions oc-
curred in wheat, at an advance of Id per bushel, and in some
cases 2d on the price of this day week. The best oats were
also id per bushel higher. In door and oatmeal there was
about the usual amount of business, at very full pt ices. Egyp-
tian beans improved 6d per quarter. Indian corn was also
'6dto 9d per quarter dearer than last Tuesday, and a fair ex-
tent of sales was made for shipment to Ireland.

DOING THINGS BY HALVES AT ST. PAUL'S.—The
result of the present arrangement is, that all the nuisance
and inconvenience apprehended in the first instance is ac-
tually provided for by affording a large enclosed play-place
for every little idle urchin and ragamuffin in the neighbour-
hood, while neither the public at large, nor the immediate
inhabitants of the vicinity derive any adequate advantage
from the change. The only proper way to make the im-
provement complete, is to adopt the basis of Mr. Barber's
plan—that is, throw open the roadway to Queen Anne's
statue, run a light iron hurdle or fence along the bottom of
the steps to prevent the intrusion of children or improper
persons, and set back the present iron railings on each side
as far as the north and south doors, close to or within a few
feet of the church. Where so great a public advantage is to
be obtained at so trifling an expense, surely it is unwise of
the parties concerned to oppose any longer the alteration.—

THE ALLEGED MURDER AT BRIXTON, NEAR PLY-
MOUTII.—The investigation at the special sessions held
th at
Ridgway, on Friday and Saturday- last, concerning is
alleged murder, is adjourned to Monday, the 24th of March.
Meanwhile William Rowe, the suspected person, has been
sent to Exeter for better security. A summons has been
issued by Mr. 0. W. Soltau, county magistrate, for the
apprehension of the father of William Rowe, in consequence,
it i 3 alleged, of his having beaten the boy, Richard Vin-
cent, for giving some parts of his evidence at the coroner's
inquest.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The Legislative Assembly was occupied during
the whole of the sitting on Monday in discussing the
Sugar Duties Bill.
A Council of Ministers was held on Monday at
the Elysee, under the direction of the PRESIDENT of
the Republic. The news arrivt d from Dresden,

Vienna, and Berlin, was the principal subject of dis-
cussion. In presence of this intelligence, the council,
it is said, decided that instructions should be at once
dispatched to the French Minister at Vienna to in-
form him of the precise attitude which France in-
tends taking in case any conflict should by possi-
bility arise between the two great German powers.
The views of the King of PRUSSIA are said to have
met with most sympathy in the council.
The new Spanish Minister, the Marquis DR
VALDEGAMAS (M. DONOZO CORTES), has arrived in
Paris.

Orders have been given for the reinforcement of
the garrisons on the eastern frontier.
The National announces its apprehensions of the
speedy failure of employment for the labouring
classes in consequence of the persevering efforts of
the reactionary party to represent the present state of
things in France as of an essentially temporary
nature. It says :
" The policy of the Royalist factions is bearing fruit.
A crisis is approaching—a crisis has already commented
—the crisis of labour. We should be wanting in our
most sacred duties in presence of imminent and cruel
sufferings if we did not take the initiative in throwing
light on the grave situation which menaces the working
classes. How could it be otherwise? These eternal
declamations of the reactionist parties about the pre-
tended instability of order—these systematic attacks on
the Republic—these openly avowed designs of a return
to some monarchy or mock monarchy these in-
quietudes, these agitations unceasingly spread abroad—
how could such things fail in creating distrust as to the
intentions of certain men and their adherents ?"
The nomination of a member of the Academy of
Sciences, in the room of M. GAT Lussec, was warmly
contested yesterday. Four different. ballots took
place ; and, in the last, M. CAGNARD DE LATOUR was
declared to be elected by a majority of 34 votes
to 19 given to M. LEON FOUCAULT.
Two reports were yesterday presented to the As-
sembly from the Committee on Supplementary
Credits. One, on the Bill demanding a credit of
522,019 francs for the payment of the half-year's
interest on the Greek loan guaranteed by France, re-
commends the Assembly to grant the credit, on the
ground that it would be neither opportune nor politic
under existing circumstances to depart from the
friendly line of conduct which had been hitherto
shown towards Greece ; and the other, on a credit of
915,145 francs for the expenses of the Mediterranean
packet service from the Ist of April to the 30th of
June, after reminding the Assembly that, by a decree
of the Constituent Assembly in 1849, this service was
to be thrown open to private competition, consents to
grant the credit, on the understanding that an ar-
rangement to that effect shall be come to previous to
the expiration of the above term.
M. JULES RIOT has presented a proposition to
the Assembly, demanding that there shall be a
grand exhibition in Paris of the manufacturing,
artistical, and other productions of all the countries
of the world.
We read in the 3lessager der Assentblie—
" There was a good deal of conversation yesterday
among the representatives in the Salle des Conferences,
respecting a strange resolution of the Council of State.
The proposition of M. Pradiit, relative to the responsi-
bility of Ministers and the President of the Republic,
was th• subject for discussion on the order of the day.
M. Bonlay (de la Meurthe), the President of the Council,
stated that the Government wished the proposition not
to be discussed at present. M. Vivian replied that he
considered that pretension so exorbitant and so anti-
constitutional, that he must ask the Council not to take
any notice of the request. The Vice-President of the
Republic having, however, insisted, M. Rivet, Councillor
of State, was dispatched to M. de Royer, the Minister of
Justice, to request from him clear and precise explana-
tions. The Minister of Justice answered that he could
give no reply without having consulted the President of
the Republic, and that, in consequence, be begged the
Council of State to suspend its deliberations on the
matter. The Council of State accordingly adjourned, but
caused the circumstances to be inscribed in its prose..
verbal. It was said that interpellations would be ad-
dressed to the Minister of Justice on the subject."
The Moniteur announces that the Comte DE
GALINA, Minister Plenipotentiary of the King of
SARDINIA, presented his credentials yesterday to the
PRESIDENT Of the Republic.
The Bourse was firm. There was a large amount
of business transacted in railroad shares, which rose
considerably. The Five per Cents, opened at 94f. 150.,
