lhe difficulty ofcollectinz the elements on which to proportion
rremiwn 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
d'fferent Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
aroonnt of annual Premiums received by each.

It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such en anomely should cease, and an apiroximation to the
trill risk b 3 male. 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 n. or systematically applied.
Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
s+ curity against loss for co great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
Is largely interested in this emotion, 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 analysts of its own
experience, hom time to 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 of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will be mada 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.

RE PLY OF

OEEDT T TIuERNF
4.NTYs SON, ESQ.
Mosaic Bard ! your lines, addressed to me,
Were not unwelcome lints—how could they be
I feel quite proud, in fact, that one like you
Should notice me—upon my word I do !
Nor would I let this first occasion slip,
Of warmly thanking' such a brother "chip."
I do not wonder at your feeling " nettled,"
On finding how the "Laureateship" is settled.
When first you heard of what I'm mw enjoying,
The disap.olutment must have been annoying.
The wonder is that you so calmly met it,
When every one expected "you" to get it ;
T gat the berth, I mean, of Laureate Bard,
7 he lo.s of which you seem to take so hard.
But, really, what with one th'ng ant another,
You're far more honoured than your laurelled brother.
Think for a moment, cousin, what you are—
The muse of MOSES, that commercial star.
. Proud would your brother ha if he could jump
From his appointed "post" to Aldgate pump.
The " c'oth" of MOSES (understand the phrase)
Would please me quite as much as my "green bays."
Should MOSES, as you've hinted, change his muse,
And let me pop into your honour's shoes,
Good service to the dress I'll strive to do,
Although I know I can't come up to you ;
And oft shall MOSES have a rhyming benison,
From your exalted brother, ALFRED TENNYSON.
