The Additions made t• the Life Policies granted by this
Corporation for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per
cent. on the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent. on the
sums assured—a result, it is believed, more favourable than
any other Company has hitherto accomplished, when the low
rates of premium charged by this Curporation are taken into
consideration. _ .

NIVER SAL L IFE ASSURANCE
OFFICE, 1. King William-street, London.
The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob-
servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is
consistent with perfect security.
One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding
years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders;
three••fourths to the former, and one .fourth to the latter. The
remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of
the succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen
contingencies.
The first division of profits took place on the 13th of May,
18.10, when a reduction of 60 per cent. was declared on the
current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti-
cipation. The second division of profits was in May, 1841,
when a similar reduction was agatn declared.
