This Society is established on the tried and approved principle of Mutual Assurance. The funds are accumulated for the exclu sive benefit of the policy-holders, under their own immediate superintendence and control. The profits are divided annually, and applied iu reduction of the current premiums. Policy holders participate in profits after payment of live annual pie miums. The Annual General Meeting of this Society was held on the 30th May, 1854, when a Report of the business for the last year was presented, exhibiting a statement of most satisfactory pro gress. It appeared that the assurances in 1d53 considerably ex ceeded those effected in any previous year; the number of policies issued being more than 480, and the annual income thereon being upwards of 7,5001. It also appeared that, except in 1849, when the visitation of the cholera took place, the claims arising from deaths were, in every year, much below their esti mated amount. The Members present at the Meeting were fully satisfied with the Report, and resolved unanimously that a reduction of 315 per cent should be made in the current year's premium payable by all policy-holders now entitled to participate in the profits. Credit is allowed for half the Annual Premiums for the first five years. The following Table exemplifies the effect of the present re duction : THE PRESS.
