This Society is established on the tried and approved principle of Mutual Assurance. The funds are accumulated for the exclu. ieee benefit of the policyholders, under their own immediate superintendence and control. The profits are divided annually, and applied in reduction of the current premiums. Policy holders participate in profits after payment of live annual pre. 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 1853 considerably ex ceeded those effected in any previous year; the number of policies issued being more than 460, 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 fay satisfied with the Report, and resolved unanimously that a reduction of 314 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.
