~u,".litoportals of Assurance intended to be submitted to
metrirentara, at the Weekly Court held every Monday,
nolllisatbe hiked with the Minster, (or with the Agents in
rigele and elsewhere, in sufficient time to admit of their

dayP,receding• otherwise they cannot be taken into coml.

lllo Which affords an opportunity to the public of secur-
tlit tthe important advantages arising from the principle of
utusl eontributionship. The value of this principle,

p_usuring, and by which, therefore, the 'Whole surplus
