A It M ID INSURANCE AGENTS THE TO TRH EDITOR OF TIM NORTHERN TIMES Sir,—All Insurers must. I think, become some what alarmed at the startling disclosures recently made in the Assurance world, and begin to regard with some little anxiety those formidable pieces of piper known as policies, which it would appear, by the bye, anything but poli y to hold, as from several notorious instances, recently adverted to in your columns, those documents now form about the most certain introducers to expensive law suits, and ruinous litigation, that any briefless barris er could desire. I beg to offer in support of this observation, a few remarks on the two notorious cases of " Laurie v. The Merchant and Tradesmans' Insurance Corn pony," and " Gosling v. The New National Insu rance Company." Any d - spassionate reader, sitting down to investigate the merits of these two cases, can only arise from their perusal Zvi h ihe convic tion that, seeing the extraordinary privileg s of Insurance companies, there is no security to any po icy holder whatever The cases are singularly similar in their main details, with this important difference, thit the heal.h and habi's of Gosling were ques ioned, but !he allegations not substawia'ed. Whereas. in the Laurie case, the hea'th of the assured was admitt-d to be so good that there was no need to question it at all. The principal obj->c ion in both instances rested, singularly enough. on the manner in which the proposals were filled up—and what is perhaps more singular, the agent's part of such filling up. In the Gosling case he had en , irely his own way, as the Insurer himself could neither read nor write. In the Laurie case, the agent perpetrated an inter lineation, upon the untrwh of which the whole trial depended. Of course, in both cases, the agents' say that everything was done at the wish of the assured. And in both cases, too, in consequence of the agent's assertions, and in despite of the evidently interested motives which prompted those assertions, we find two families deprived of that provision which the Assurer would appear to have intended honestly to secure to them Now, sir, what justice, what honour, is there in disputing policies, the original contracts for which were actually prepared by a Company's agent in such a manner as to secure their acceptance ? How does any assurer know, if an agent's interfetance without sanction is admissible, what lies he may be made to utter in his proposal, and what damning evidence the agent may, from " his own knowledge," rake up after the assured's dicease, to invalidate the policy ? Who can, indeed, tell what policy is safe, and what not, so long as a company can secure agents who are willing to capture a life in the first instance, receive the premiums in the second, and then, in the third, stand most unblushingly in a court of jus ice, and deliver themselves of assertions which, however little they may contribute to their own honour, make worth still less, if possible, the policy, they and their employers were so eager to prepare ? Sir, the startling question must force itself strongly upon public attention Why are companies thus exempt from the consequences of the ac's of their agents ? As I take it, agents are part and parcel of the working machinery of a company—their deeds are endorsed in every instance by the directory, who have sufficient power to insti•u'e every necessary enquiry. I submit, therefore, that it is a monstrous insult to the in . elligence of the nineteenth century, that any company should bo permitted to evade a claim when the cause o' evasion is really and truly no defect in the lfe assured, but some statement inserted in a proposal by their own agent, which, in point of fact, should be tantamount to inserting it themselves It would appear inde d to be but too true, as your able correspondent of to day states " that no policy exists whose v.tlidity or other worth lessness may not depend on the whim or interest f the company insuring it " I must apolog se for being led away to his length, but the local interest attached to the case, the injustice of which you have cient excuse for the length of ibis letter. In conclusion, I would suggest that it would be well for all policy h lders to dem Ind of the office in which they may be insured, an investigation durn,7, their the time; and then, for the secu i.y of their family, have officially written across the face of their policies that gordian-knot of a word— Dec. 15, 18.56 INDISPUTABLE. WHAT NEXT ? TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES " Tell it not in Gath !" publish it not in the streets of Liverpool ! but, evidently, some of our gaol old Tory friends (so called) of the rabid sec tion, are at their dirty work again, and their filth is now displayed on the walls of this town, in the shape of an appeal to the Electors—and for what ? The sham is, that one of our representatives, Mr. Ewart, presided at the " Sir William 'Wallace monu ment meeting" in this town ; and that, as a " vul gar" Professor in'Edinburgh had lately been hitting rather hard at the English, their church establish ment, eze ; and that, as a matter of course, the " London Thunderer" had replied with a loud peal. The small pop-guns, in imitation of the big gun, get charged,rand fire off du it penny-a•liners against these vulgar barbarians, the Scotch, and a' their kith and kin, for presuming to say a word against immaculate England . But the meeting here was not called to indorse the Edinburgh Professor's speech any more than the speech of the Pope of Rome, and no allusion was there made either to the speech of the one gentleman or the other. The report of that meeting appeared in your paper, and no true hearted Englishman could say a word against what was said there. Now, as regards Professor Blackio's speech and the Times' reply, most of your readers have read or heard of both, and can judge fqr themselves ; but from the growl, any one not prejudiced would fancy there is some truth in the Professor's words, and that he has given the corns of the grumblers a squeeze. There are, no doubt, corns (alias superguous growths and abuses), in our English church as well as State establishments, and no intelligent Fnglishrnan will deny this. Let our friends, therefore, extract these corns, and then they need not fear the pressure of any speech, but will feel all the more easy and comfortable for their extraction ; and if Scotehmen point out England's faults (wiih all her faults Scotchmen love her still, notwithstanding all the Tory abuse of poor Scatchtnen), and England points out the fail ings of Scotland, we may soon hope for the chance of each setting their houses in order ! There is nothing like free and public discussion ; churning produces butter, so wholesome agitation will result in good. England and Scotland are now one nation, and all liberal and intelligent Englishmen would frown upon any unworthy efforts to sow dis cord between the two—rthe nose and Thistle (not forgetting the Shamrock and Leek) are now entwined, and ever must be so; and as for this one's speech or that one's speech—why, what is it in a free-press country like this, but as the member of one family lecturing on the faults of another member of the same family, and what is that? Why, it is only an act of kindness and brotherly love—(mankind should never forget they are all brothers and sisters) —though often, as in their case, often pt4ervyise interpreted, for all like praise more or less, and fey/ censure, But for any one to attempt to damage Mr. F - .;wart in the estimation of the electors of Liverpool, from his presiding at such a meeting as that named, is absurd, ac all Englishmen who love freedom and nationality must resnpei the memory of Wallace as much as Scotehmen, therefore, using this so a pretext, is too glaring not to be apparent to every one who is not actually blind, for our friends to be consistent, may as well abuse Mr. Horsfall for pre siding at one of the Hope-hall Lectures, or at any of our corteerts for the people; nay, our friends had better keep quiet, and not attempt to gull the liberal and enlightened electors of this town— they know their game, and, rest assured, pee it, and will avoid their trickery.—Yours, 4e., Liverpool, Dec. 12, 1856. A TRUE BRITON. Early on Saturday morning information was brought to the police station, Cardiff, that dufng the night or early in the morning the shop of Mr. Spiridons. one of the largest jewellers in this town, had been broken into, and property to the amount of nearly £3OO stolen. The metro• politan police force were informedof the robbery by electric telegraph almost as soon as it was discovered. NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL, WEDNES DA Y. LOSS OF THE ARCTIC AND PACIFIC.
