This Society is essentially one of Mutual Assurance, in which the
Premiums of its Members are reduced after seven years to the lowest
amount consistent with safety. The average rate of reduction,
during the last seven years, has exceeded 60 per cent
But the Society also undertakes other descriptions of Assurance,
in which the assured do not become members ; and in order to confer
on these a corresponding advantage of Reduced Premiums, the Court
of Directors, having ceased to allow any Agency Commission, have
determined to effect this Class of Assurances in future at the follow-
ing very low rates, and it has also been determined to reduce the
Premiums charged upon existing Policies of the same Class to the
same Scale.

WINDSOR, MONDAY EVENING.
The grand review, which will take place on 'Wednesday,
in the Great Park, is expected to prove one of the most mag-
nificent military spectacles ever witnessed in the vicinity of
the Royal residence. A park of heavy artillery from Wool-
wich, consisting of ten or twelve guns, will arrive at Wind-
sor in the course of to-morrow, under the command of General
Lord Bloomfield. The *cavalry regiments which will as-
semble in the Park, will include the Ist Life Guards, com-
manded by Colonel Cavendish ; the Royal Horse Guards
(Blue), commanded by Colonel Richardson ; the 17th Lan-
cers (from Hounslow), the 7th Hussars, and the Ist Dragoon
Guards. The ground will he kept by the 2d Life Guards.
The infantry regiments will include the 2d battalion of the
Grenadier 4uards, the Coldstream Guards, and the Scots
Fusilier Guards; the 49th and 57th Regiment of the Line,
&c. General the Hon. Edward Lygon will take the com-
mand of the cavalry, and Lord Saltoun the infantry. The
whole of the troops will be commanded by General Viscount
Combermere.

After the review, a splendid entertainment will be given
by Colonel Colville and the officers of the 2d battalion of the
Scots Fusilier Guards-(in garrison at Windsor), to the whole
of the officers of the infantry regiments, which will be in the
field. The entertainment will take place beneath the exten-
tensive tent which was captured from Tippoo Saib, and
which will be pitched in the barrack-square, the mess-room
at. the Infantry Barracks not being sufficiently spacious to ac-
commodate the numerous distinguished personages who have
been invited. A similar grand dejeuner a la fourchette will
also be given by Colonel Cavendish and the officers of the Ist
Life Guards, to the officers of the cavalry regiments, at the
barracks at Spital.
The Royal Horse Guards (Blue) will arrive to-morrow
evening, and will take up their quarters at the Cavalry bar-
racks. Other regiments will also arrive in the course of the
day, and be quartered in the town.
Thp Emperor of Russia,, who arrived this evening, shortly
before- Seven o'clock, accompanied by. Prince Alberto-10=0oceeded from the Castle to the Slough station to meet the
Emperor, was loudly cheered as the Royal cortege passed
through Eton and Windsor, in its progress to the Palace.
His Imperial Majesty returned the salutations, which greeted
him throughout his progrees, in the most cordial and unre-
strained manner. The Emperor was escorted from Slough
by a detachment of the Ist Life Guards, and the Castle
Guard, at Henry the Eight's Gateway, turned out to receive
his Imperial Majesty, as a guard of honour, on his proceeding
up the Castle-hill to the Palace.
Her Majesty and the Prince, accompanied by the King of
Saxony, arrived. at the Castle nearly three hours before the
Emperor. Her Majesty was received by the inhabitants
of Windsor, upon her arrival, in the most respectful manner.
The King of Saxony will occupy those portions of the
private apartments which are appropriated for the King of
the Belgians, when his lajesty visits his illustrious niece at
the Castle. .

The Emperor of Russia will occupy the following splendid
state apartments, which have been magnificently fitted up
for his Imperial Majesty's exclusive use during his visit to
the Queen :—The King's drawing-room, the King's closet,
the ante-throne room, the Queen's closet, and the council
chamber. From these apartments delightful and pic-
turesque views are obtained over Stoke, Farnham, Burnham,
Slough, &c.

THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA'S
PROGRESS.

lIAMBURGII, MAY 31.—The Emperor of Russia appears to
be at present engaged in one of those journies a l'impromptu
for which his Majesty is already so well known. The deter-
mination of his Majesty to commence the journey from St.
Petersburgh to Berlin, was so sudden and unexpected, that
even Count Orloff was taken by surprise ; and his time for
preparation was so short, that on the arrival of the illustrious
traveller in Berlin, the Count was compelled to borrow articles
of dress from the wardrobe of the Russian Ambassador in the
last-named city. The journey from Petersburgh to Berlin
was made in the incredibly short space of four days and
six hours, and so little was the Emperor expected in
Berlin, that his Ambassador had engaged a party to dine
with him on the very day on which his Majesty
arrived. The Emperor, with his attendant, Count Orloff',
drove up in Berlin on Sunday morning last before the hotel
of the Russian Ambasador, the dwelling being the property
of the Russian Government, and usually occupied by any
member of the imperial family, during his stay in Berlin.
When the carriage drove up before the gates of the hotel,
the Emperor descended, and was received by the German
porter of the establishment, by whom he was not recognised.
His Majesty inquired if the Ambassador was within, and
upon receiving an affirmative answer, the domestic was not
a little astonished upon being ordered to go in and to an-
nounce the Emperor of Russia.
BERLIN, MAY 27.—His Majesty the Emperor of Russia
arrived here yesterday, and set out to-day for Brunswick.
BRUNSWICK, MAY 28.—Yesterday, at eight o'clock in the
evening, his Majesty the Emperor of Russia arrived here by
the: railway from. Magdeburg, but as he travels incognito
he was not received with the customary honours ; only the
Commandant, Lieutenant-General Von Schrader, and Major-
General Normann had the honour of being presented to him.
The Emperor proceeded in General Normann's carriage from
the station, and alighted with a suite of thirty persons at the
Hotel d'Angleterre, where he passed the night. This morn-
ing, after driving through the city, he set out again by way
of Lafferde and Hildesheim ; forty-eight post-horses are
ready for him at every stage.
MINDEN, MAY 29.—His Majesty the Emperor of Russia
arrived here this afternoon at three-quarters past five o'clock,
and stopping only nine minutes to change horses, proceeded
on his journey by way of Munster to Holland.

THE CROWN PRINCE OF
DENMARK.

Yesterday afternoon his Royal Highness the Crown Prince
of Denmark, and a numerous suite, took up their residence at
Douglas's Hotel. His Royal Highness arrived at Granton
Pier in a 48-gun frigate about twelve o'clock, and was re-
ceived with a royal salute; shortly after which his Excel-
lency Count Reventlow, the Danish Ambassador, who has
been in Edinburgh for some days, went on board to make the
necessary arrangements for the landing of his Highness. The
Lord Provost was in waiting on the pier, and accompanied
his Royal Highness to his hotel. Sir William Bain and R.
W. Hamilton, Esq., manager of the General Steam Naviga-
tion Company, superintended the arrangements for the dis-
embarkation of the distinguished visitor. We understand
that his Royal Highness intends making a tour of the High-
lands, after which he returns to Denmark. The frigate is
ordered to sail for Orkney in the course of a day or two to
meet his Royal Highness.—Edinburgh Evening Post of Sa-
turday.
(A letter from Copenhagen, dated May 27, states :—" The
Crown Prince sailed from Elsineur to the Cattegat on the
24th, with the frigate Gesion, Captain Garde, and the Thetis,

the Eighth, the procession

the Master, Wardens,
Deptford Strand, in the county of Kent, the election of Mas-
ter, the proclamation of Deptford Fair, and other ceremonies
connected with the day, took place, and owing to the favour-
able state of the weedier, the proceedings went off with great
eclat. The Wardens and Elder Brethren assembled in the
great hail of the Trinity-house in the morning to receive his
Grace the Duke of Wellington, the Master of the Corpora-
tion, who, with his accustomed punctuality, arrived in an
open carriage precisely at eleven o'clock, the time appointed,
and was received with loud cheering. His Grace appeared
in excellent health and spirits. He was dressed in the Tri-
nity uniform. The procession was soon afterwards formed,
and the Corporation, preceded by his Grace, and accompanied
by a band of music, walked to the Tower wharf, where a
guard of honoar was in attendance to receive them, and em-
barked on board their state barges. His Grace on leaving
the wharf was again loudly cheered. On the arrival of the
Corporation at Deptford a salute was fired, and the Master,
Wardens, and Elder Brethren, proceeded first to visit the
almshouses for twenty-five decayed master mariners behind
St. Nicholas Old Church, and afterwards to the new alms-
houses, thirty-six in number, endowed by Captain Maples,
in Church-street. The neat appearance of the houses, and
the condition of the inmates, many of whom were very far
advanced in life, were favourably noticed by his Grace. The
Corporation then went to the hall in the eastern wing of the
almshouses, where his Grace was unanimously re- elected
Master for the ensuing year. The Corporation afterwards
attended Divine service at St. Nicholas Church, where an
eloquent sermon was preached on the occasion by the Rev.
Henry Melvill, the Chaplain of the Tower. At the termi-

THE DUNCOMBE TESTIMONIAL-
A great meeting of the trades was held last night, in the
large Hall, Saville House, Leicester-square; in furtherance of
the national object of presenting to Thomas Slingsby Dun-
combe, Esq., M.P., a-Signal and lasting testimonial of their
respect and admiration. The proposed testimonial is to be in
the substautial shape of a landed estate, to be purchased by
the joint contributions of the working classes, for that ta-
lented cod public-spirited Member of the Legislature. The
meeting was most numerously attended, the large hall being
completely crowded, and there seemed to be, amongst the
vast assemblage, but one unanimous feeling of enthusiasm
in favour of the cause. It had been announced that several
Members of Parliament would be present, and address the
meeting; but in that respect the general expectation was dis-
appointed—for no Member of Parliament was in attendance.
In all other points the expectations of the friends of the
cause were amply realised.
Mr. F. O'Coxxoit proposed that, in the absence of the Hon.
Member for Westminster, as well as the other so called
honourable men, the Attorney-General to the miners now on
strike, viz.. Mr. Roberts, should take the chair.—(Applause.)
Mr. ROBERTS, who took the chair amidst immense cheer-
ing, introduced the subject for which the meeting had been
convened, in a few appropriate remarks.
I Mr. PARKER, in moving the first resolution, said that Mr.
Duncombe was worthy of the thanks and gratitude of the
people at large, and more especially of the working classes,
for having strangled the " Masters and Servants' BilL"—
(Cheers.) The working classes would have been worse than
slaves if that Bill had passed. Much was said about the
danger of the sons of labour misbehaving themselves • but
for his part he maintained that they would not misbehave
themselves, and that the great question was to prevent the
lordly capitalists from misbehaving themselves towards the
sons of labour.—(Loud cheers.) The enterprise they were
now upon would startle and alarm the oligarchy. The grand
secret had been learnt by the working classes. There was
much involved in the present proceeding, and he had .no
doubt but that many would rally round Mr. Duncombe in
the hope of getting estates also.—(Cheers and a laugh.) He
concluded by moving the first resolution, viz.:—
"That this meeting is of opinion that if the Masters and
Servants' Bill ' feel passed into a law, it would, to a great
extent, have destroyed the peace of society, and in its ope-
ration proved injurious and degrading to the working classes,
by placing them so completely in the hands of their masters
and foremen, and at the disposal and mercy of justices,
making working men liable to fines and imprisonment, for,
it might be, a very trivial 'misbehaviour respecting their
work or employment.'"
The CHAIRMAN then introduced Mr. Mitchell, "one of the
twelve Apostles of labour sent from Northumberland and
Durham."—(Cheers.)
Mr. MITCHELL said no class would have been more severely
affected by the operation of the Masters and Servants' Bill
than the class which he represented, namely, the miners;
and he proceeded to give a very graphic description of the
peculiar position in which that trade was placed. He begged
leave to acknowledge, on the part of those whom he repre-
sented, their deep share of the gratitude that was due to Mr.
Duncombe for what he had done. The miners could not
assist them now, so far as contributions were concerned, for
they (the miners) were on the strike. But he could assure
them that when once the miners were restored to their work,
they would be behind none in their contributions.—(Cheers.)
He begged leave to second the motion.—(Hear.)
Mr. IARRER supported the resolution, saying that he had
no doubt the object of the Bill in question had been to strike
a death-blow to all political societies and all unions of work-
ing men.—(Wear, hear.)
The resolution was carried unanimously.
Mr. Sart.ToN moved the next resolution, viz. :
" That this meeting is convinced, that the thanks and
gratitude of the working classes of the United Kingdom are
justly due to T. S. Duncombe, Esq., M.P., for his past ser-
vices in their behalf; more especially for his strenuous and
s„„e,:„fui opposition to the Masters and Servants' Bill, more
properly the Labour Degradation BilL"
He warmly supported the object of the meeting. He con-
sendea that it was but too evident that wealth was power,
and that the working classes, who produced all the wealth
of the country, were powerless, because the wealth they
produced was extracted by the law of the land frem out a
their possession.—(Hear, hear.) He called upon the work-
ing classes in their weakness, to collect their pence toge-
ther, in order to give increased power to the men who, like
Mr. Duncombe, were willing to labour for them.—(Cheers.)
Mr. C,7FFY, in a few eloquent sentences, in which he
passed a high eulogium on Mr. Duncombe, seconded the re.
solution.
Mr. WARTNABY suppoted the motion.
The resolution was carried unanimously.
Mr. EDWARDS, who described himself a skein silk dyer,
moved in appropriate language the third resolution, viz.:—
" That this meeting approves of the manner by which the
trades of this metropolis have proposed to testify their grati-
tude, and that of the working classes of the United King-
dom, to Mr. Duncombe, namely, by raising a fend to pur-
chase an estate for that gentleman ; and would, at the same
time, urge the Central Committee to carry out their object
with the utmost vigour and energy."
Mr. M'Fitm)Enicx seconded the motion.

Mr. FEAR Gus O'Cosriojt spoke to the resolution. This
was, he said. a signal occasion, on which the working classes
had assembled to prove that they were not ungrateful.—
(Cheers.) The object of their admiration and esteem was a
gentleman who had made himself conspicuous for his public
spirit and unshaken integrity.—(Loud cheers.) Most
heartily would he subscribe to a testimonial to a man who
bad made so many sacrifices as Mr. Duncombe. He remem-
bered, that when he a as immured in a dungeon, the only one
of the Members of Parliament professing liberal opinions who
visited him was Mr. Duncombe. He proceeded to animad-
vert upon the absence of Liberal Members from the meeting,
and observed that these were not times when Liberal Mem-
bers ought to be apathetic. The Tories were not dormant,
and had but just now placed in a dungeon one of the greatest
men of his day—a man from whom he (Mr. O'Connor) had
differed in many important points, but whom he could never
but acknowledge as the great benefactor of the country to
which he (Mr. O'Connor) was proud to belong.—(Loud
cheering.) The Learned Gentleman concluded a most elo-
quent speech by calling on the meeting to come forward and
mark their sense of the noble efforts of Mr. Duncombe to se-
cure the rights of the unrepresented, by some lasting monu-
ment.—( Loud cheers.)
The resolution was carried unanimously.
Mr. HAMNEY moved, and Mr. Snuxx seconded the next
resolution, viz.:—

"That the the thanks of this meeting are due, and are hereby
tendered, to those Members of Parliament who supported
Mr. Dwaccmbe in his opposition to the Masters and Servants'
Bill."

Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the nu-
merous assemblage separated.
It was understood that a large sum was received at the
doors in furtherance of the public-spirited and highly na-
tional tribute to Mr. Duncombe's honour.

INCLOSURE OF HAMPSTEAD-
HEATH.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—When Sir Maryon Wilson's Estate Bill first
made its appearance in Parliament, I opposed it, when other
parties were induced to withdraw their opposition under the
pretext of a saving clause to the rights of the copyholders,
and by strenuous personal exertion, in conjunction with a
gentleman, the Bill, which had passed the House of Lords,
was on the third reading thrown out in the House of Corn-
mons. Reading Mr. Lyddon's letter in a morning paper of
yesterday,. induces me to trouble you.
He states, "Sir Thomas M. Wilson has this day desired me
thus publicli, and most positively, to state that he never has
sought, nor is he now seeking, any power from Parliament, to
enable him to inclose Hampstead-heath, and to add, that he
has near contemplated its enclosure."
If Sir T. M. Wilson never contemplated inclosing any part
of the heath, why did be permit his steward to persist
in 'retaining words in the schedule of his first Bill that
would enable him to have granted building leases of such
parts of the waste as were exonerated from the custom of
the manor ? The lord contends he has the right of ap-
prov4l, and he disputes general rights exercised by the copy-
holders. In fact, it is only well-versed lawyers ilia can see
the bearing of this matter.

Lord Teaterden strangled the second Bill by showing that
Sir T. M. Wilson's father gave him only a life estate. He
also willed a boon to the copyholders and the public—the
open meadows and heath, to perambulate upon—knowing
that no person would build on a 21 years' lease, all at present
that he can grant.
The third Bill last year the copyholders successfully peti-
tioned against.
The present Bill is upon a new tact : to sell the estates by
the aid of Parliament ! ! and evade the will—and the day
after, for aught 1 know, have the estate re-conveyed to him.
At any rate, power may then be exercised to grant building-
leases of Hampstead-heath—which is, in effect, inclosing it.
Every Member of the House of Peers who has the public
interest at heart, will oppose this Bill.
Yours, &c. W. H. d.

FATAL OMNIBUS ACClDENT.—Yesterday a num-
ber of children were playing about the pump near St. Mary-
le-Strand Church, when one of them flung some water in the
face of Charles Hedges, aged eleven, a boy belonging to the
parochial school, who, running into the carriage-way, felle
under the omnibus No. 3,115, which went over him, and
killed him. Not the slightest blame is attachable to the
driver, who was proceeding at a moderateyace.

MR. KFMBLE'S READINGS.—Mr. C. Kemble con-
cluded his series of Shaksperian readings last evening, with
the drama of Hamlet. The great room at Willis's was crowded
to excess with rank and fashion; among the company were
the Duchess of Sutherland, the Marquis of Lansdowne, the
Marquis of Normanby, Lord Francis Egerton and family, and
a long list of distinguished literary persons. Mr. Kemble ac-
quitted himself of his task with great feeling and taste, and
was much applauded. There seemed to be a general regret
that this was the last occasion of his appearance.
THE IRON TRADE.—We are glad to observe that
the Castlehill Iron Works, near Carluke, which have been
out of blast for about two years, aro again to be put in full
operation. One of the furnaces is at present set going, and
the other is under the process of heating, preparatory to iron-
