* The rates hare selected are those adopted by the English and
Cambrian Office, and advertised in its distinctive features as low
rates of premium, and professedly for the lower and middling classes.
In most offices, particularly the older ones, such as the Scottish
Equitable and the Globe, these rates would be much higher. Ia the
former of 101. 7s. 6d., with 10 shillings per cent. entrance fee, would
be the rate to insure 5001. at 20 years of age. In the latter 81. 13s 4d.,

2ndly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive
in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all ages,
THREE times as much as on the ordinary system. 3rdly. In the event
of inability or omission to pay, his policy remains still his property,
of the same value as it was, though he cease his current payments
for any number of years ; whereas on the ordinary system, he gets
nothing. 4thly. Should he require to increase or decrease the
amount of his policy he can do so at pleasure. He can, at any time,
by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any part from IL up to the
whole amount of his previous payments and with interest. After he
has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, three
years, or any time afterwards, raise his policy to a greater or even
its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate
his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the
bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as
in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets inte-
rest for his money, and in case of death his family receive more than
the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices be can de no
such thing, but his policy at ence lapses or is cancelled the moment
he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any
fund to fly to for aid, all his hard-earned savings become forfeited to
the society, and his misfortunes serve to benefit the pockets of his
more fortunate co-assurers.
Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be ororlookaO,
and DEPOsIT assurance is the only system of assurance which can be
universally recognized and adopted when the principles are impar-
tially canvassed, and its palpable benefits become widely diffused. It
confers greater advantages than a bank because it allows a fair rate
of interest In case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the
hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor in
case of death, thus combining the
ADVANTAGES OF A BANK WITH THE BENEFITS OF
AN ASSURANCE COMPANY.
In case of endowment assurances the advantages of the DEPOSIT
system are still more striking.
