The distinctive feature of this Company consists in the sufficiency
of ONE PAYMENT to cover an Assurance for the WHOLE OF
LIFE.
The first is the only expense and trouble, there being no annual re-
newa lof premium.
By granting Assurances to Passengers only, and excluding all
those persons in the employ of Railway Companies or Contractors
among whom the heavier risks occur, the Directors of this Com-
pany are enabled to issue Policies at a lower rate of premium than
is offered by any existing Company.
Upon proof being given that a party assured has met with his
death by railway accident, the Company will pay to his representa-
tives the full amount of his Policy.
If the accident shall result in personal injury only, the Company
will pay to the assured a fair compensation for such injury.
Assurers have the option of travelling in carriages of any class, and
on any railway in the United Kingdom.
The Directors are now granting assurances upon the following
terms, viz. :
For every Policy of 100/. 0/. ss. I For every Policy of 1,000/. 2/. 2s.
500/. 11. ss, „ „ „2,000/. 41. 4s.
99 ft
Agents p
are appointed in all the principal towns of the United
Kingdom, through whom Assurances W
may be effected.

FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie-
tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head
Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the
report, which is too lengthy for publication :
During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in England.
and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 280/.—making
together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected
mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how
severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last
year.
The number of lives assured between the let of June, 1849, and
the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in
the twelve months preceding.
Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.:
of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s.
Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s.
was received by the Company in the shape of premiums.
Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June last,
assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. Its 6d., pro-
ducing in animal premiums 3,7321. I Is. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed,
amounting to 23,990/. 16s. 6i1., of which the annual premiums were
7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to
2,9911. 15s. Ild.
Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001.,
but 1,1831. Ils. 10(3. only was advanced.
The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the
last four months they had considerably extended their business on
the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur
de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for
his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters,
who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of ,Paris,
the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque
de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con-
siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An-
nuities both Immediate and Deferred.
After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning
thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice-
Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish-
ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results
and future prospects. • .

The POLICIES are INDUSPUTABLE, in terms of the Deed of
Settlement of the Company, duly registered, and are not, therefore,
dependent for their validity on the construction to be put upon pre-
vious statements or the official papers which preceded them, or upon
reports, prospectuses, or other varying documents. They are thus
rendered CERTAIN FAMILY PROVISIONS, AND NEGOTIABLE
DOCUMENTS OF SECURITY.
Owing to this important improvement in the practice of life
assurance, the progress of this company hai been rapid from the
commencement of its business, and is steadily advancing.
