The leading principles of this Office ara Moderate and equitable
Rates to Premium for each class of ris'i—Annual division of Profits
The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
A'remium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so
great. that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.
It has been round by experience, that the total annual losses of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomaly should cease, and an aporoximation to the
true risk he made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rance Company is established.
Ile true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
Jroached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently acted n, or systematically applied.
Whatever he the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Ensured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
security against less tor so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
s largely interested in this uuestion. and will consult his interest by
supperting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Aversge, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire ()flee will, by a constant analysis. of its own
experience, ftom time to tie e, adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tarifhs with other offices.
With this view an annual investigation will be made into each
,lass of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fitly per cent of the nett
excess will be in.ide to all clasSes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years.

and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 2101.—making

mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how
-teverely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last

the 31st of At ay, 1550, was snore than double the number Issued In

of these 121, corm' rising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s.

was received by the Company in the shape of premiums
Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June last,
assuran,es were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 12s 6d., pro-
'tieing in annual premiums 3,7321. Its. 6d. Ot these 54 lapsed,
amounting to 23,9101. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were
7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to
2,991/. 15". 11d.

but 1,1831. Its. 10 el. only was advanced.

the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque

ilderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An-
nuities both Immediate and Deferred.
