The Corporation has effected Life Assurances for a period of more
than 125 years, its first policy having been issued on:the 7th of
Juno, 1721.
The extent of its business and connexions, the security afforded
97 its large capital, its long standing, its advantages to Assurers,"and
the liberality of Its transactions, strongly recommend it to the public.
Two-thirds of the gross profits are awarded to the assured, and
!le expenses of managing the Life Department are not, as is usual,
taken from the premium fund, but are defrayed by the Corporation
out of their one-third share of the profits, thus giving to the As-
sured all the advantages of Mutual Assurance, without liability
Of Partnership, and the security of an ancient and opulent Cor-
Poration.
Its tables have been formed on the lowest seals, to meet the varied
*flews of Assurers, by affording to them the option of the following
several advantages :—Firstly, of participating in the profits of the
Corporation by abatements from annual premiums ; or, secondly, by
Making additions to the sums assured by way of bonus payable at
death; or, thirdly, by a money payment at the division of profits in
every fifth year, whilst from those who desire to limit their assu-
arm's to a given sum without participation in profits, the lowest
Possible rate of premium is required, as will be evinced by tables ex-
Pressly prepared for the Corporation, which may be hat on applica-
ion at their offices, and which have been constructed for meeting
the various wants of Assurers, and every risk to which protection
by assurance can be extended.
The bonuses made to Assurers have at some of the periods of di-
vision been upwards of 50 per cent., and for three of the lowest
Years the average bonus has been equal to from 241 to 21 per cent.,
or from 3 to 334 per cent. per annum on the sum assured, varying
flecording to the age of the life.

The Directors of she Legal and—Alfred

beg leave to call the attention of the public, and of Warehousemen
ant others occupying large premises In particular, to circulars re-
cently issued by the combined Assurance Companies, announcing
their intention to reduce the rates of Insurance hitherto charged on
Warehouses and other large buildings.
The Directors of the Legal and Commercial Assurance Society
Cannot forbear congratulating the public on this early result of their
Soperations, for the course now adopted by the combined offices is to
clyiainly attributed to the success of the Legal and Commercial
ty—founded en the principle of charging fair rates only, and,
erefore, honoured with a larger degree of support by the public
`4an they could have possibly calculated upon.
nji-le reductions thus enforced from the combined offices will, of
1711,NF, have the effect of approximating their rates to those charged
this office, and conclusively establish the soundness of the princl-
f es, and the fairness of the practice, adopted by the Legal and nom-
Assurance society from its commencement.
ri The Directors of the Legal and Commercial Fire Assurance Se-
in thus announcing to the public this successful result of their.
trrations, trust to the continuance of that large patronage which
tt7eX have hitherto received, and which will form the only security
-I.,n`ge Public against a renewed attempt, on the part. of the combine-
ti
again to raise unduly the rates charged upon important classes
