EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE.
Capital-500,0001.
(Incorporated ander 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.)

The leading principles of this Office are —Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each class or risk—Annual division of Profits.
The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
Premium to risk in Insurance against LOBS 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 Prerntum for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently acted n, or systematically ap,lied.
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 nucstion, and Will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Aver tge, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire OfNce will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to ti re, adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariff., 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.

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

During the past year no claim* have arisen from deaths In
and but two in Peland —one for 600/. and the other sor 2(10/.—making

.4evefely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last
year.

The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1849, and
the 31st of slay, 1850, was more than double the number issued in
the twelve months preceding.

The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the
last four m-nths *hey had considerably extended their business on
the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur
de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for
his integrity and ability in financial and in all. assurance matters,
who, under the sanctions and patronsA,,e of the Archbishop of Paris,
the Cardinal Archbisb p of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque
de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a eons
siderabie amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An-
nuities both Immediate and Deferred.
After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning
thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice-
Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish-
ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results
and future prospects.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MOSES'
CLOTH ?
I think this cloth is woven well,
Such cloth is certain to excel;
'Tis sound and stout, nor can we trace
A single blemish on its face;
With cloth so choice and cloth so strong,
No wonder that the dress lasts long.
What do you think of MOSES' style?
I think it's elegantly best,
I think it matchless and complete,
I think it beaulifully chaste,
I think it shows the cutter's taste.
I wonder not that thousands smile
Approvingly on such a style.
What do you think of MOSES' make ?
I'm led to think from what I ken,
That th y employ the best of men ;
No sliAtizing tau Rs are found to lurk
In any portion of L e work ;
In fact you need not ask me whether
The clothes are rightly put together.
Whet do you think of MOSES' flt ?
What do I think or MOSES' flt ?
I think it truly exquisite.

But, no, their list of prices show
They sell astonishingly low.

A NEW and very curious invention connected with Dental
Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, of 17, George•street,
Hanover-square; it is the production of an entirely NEW DESCRIP-
TION OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfrctly resembe natural teeth, as not to bo
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer. They will
never change colour or decay, and will be found very superior to
any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the ex-
traction of any Teeth or Roots, or any painful operation, and will
su, port and preserve the Teeth-that are loose, and is guaranteed to
restore articulation and mastication. The invention is of importance
to marry persons, and those who are interested in it should avail
themselves of Mr. Howard's NEW DISCOVERY.

LivaitrooL, MARCH 7.—The sale of wheat and four at our
Corn Exchange this morning was even more limited than of
late, but prices were considered to be without change. Egyp-
tian beans declined 6d, and Indian corn 6d to is per quarter
from Tuesday's prices. There was no variation in the quota-
tion of any other article of the trade, with quite a restricted
demand. _ .

NEWBURY, Maim 6.—The supply of wheat offering to-
day is but moderate, and the dry winds have much improved
the condition. The demand has been good, and in some in-
stances at rather improved rates. Although we cannot report
any general advance, still a goad clearance was effected at full
rates. Barley, a moderate supply; best malting in request
at full rates, and other descriptions a better sate at late rates.
Beans, oats, and peas, short supply,and in fair request, and late
rates fully maintained.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, MARCH 7.—The demand
continues dull, and the unsatisfactory state -f the refined
market has a depressing influence on the sale of all descriptions

Williams (East Crowndale), and one also from Capt.
Carpenter (late manager of Wheal Andertoe).
Also a communication from seven London share-
holders, requesting an increase in the number of
trustees; that every alternate meeting be hold in
London; and that they be famished with a list of share-
holders, the number of shares held by each, and the price
paid for the same. A cell of 10s. per share was made, and
it was unanimeusly resolved that the representations
made in the prospectus were fully borne out by the re-
ports read; that Mtissrs. J. E. Mare acid J. Pettier, with
tee purser, visit the mine, consider the recommendations
in the report, estimate the expense, and give their opi-
nion thereon at a meeting to be called for the purpose.
Captain Carpenter having offered occasionally to inspect
and report on the mine, the meeting expressed their ebli-
getion, considering such attention would be particularly
advantageous. It was also resolved to intorm the London
shard) Aders that two trustees only were appointed, to
avoid expense, and that the mejority of the shares being
held in the vicinity of the mine, it was inexpedient un-
alterably to fix the alternate meetings in London, but
that every information should be forwarded ; that a
list of the shareholders, with the number of shares, be
forwarded as required, but that the other information
sought could not be given. Captain Carpenter's
report entered at considerable length into the prospects
of the mines (Wheal Anderton and Ash Consolidated),
which were favourable, the most advisable methods for
future operations, and his views and recommendations
generally were borne out by the joint report above-men-
tioned.

count of adventurers. Captain Williams' salary was

was satisfactory.
At the two-monthly meetings of adventurers in
Llwynmaleee Mine, on Tuesday, the accounts were exa-
mined and passed, showing a balance against the adven-
turers of 174 f.; and, in order more fully to develope the
resources of the mine, it was considered requisite to

past services, as well as for his able and lucid statement
of the present position and future prospects of the mine.
At the Trewalder adjourn. d meeting at Exeter, on
