ENGLISH INSURANCE CoNrANIEs.-We were
shown statement of the losses sustained by
five English Insurance Compa' es, by the recent
fire at llalihy, N. s., viz;
Alliance of London ...... ..,...,..Sl 10000
Royal ................ l35OOO
Liverpool 4 London ............... ll3OOO
Pho y OF London ....... .,....... $4,000
Haia Co Halifax ...........,.... 10000
American Cos. ............,.. $4,000
S5l2GaO
Showing, most conclusiycly that the English
custom orwrit lg large amounts in ono policy, and
covering so heavy lines liable to bum at one fire,
cannot but operate disastrously, and must utimate-
y wind up any company that persists in such i'm.
pradcncc Far safer is it to community, to take
their insurance for So 900 and under in sound com
panies, who scatter well their 7ks, than to per
NIT any company to take $50, 900 to S5OOOO sub
jcct to one fire.
TUE EQINocTIAL GALE-From East and West
come tidngs Of damage done to shipping by the
gale of Saturday, Sunday and Monday last, From
