LIFE DEPARTMENT.
• J. T. CLEMENT, Esq., Actuary.
A sum far more than equal to the value of the Policies is in-
vested in the public securities, in the names of the Trustees, so
as to be at all times available.
At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to
the Life Policies equal to twenty-five per cent. on the sums
Paid, and a bonus of five per cent. was added to the Shares in
addition to the payment of the annual interest.
The quinquennial meeting being only just past, a favourable
opportunity now offers Tor the commencement of new Insu-
rances; parties now joining will be allowed to participate in
the profits at the neat division, as if they had been insured for
the whole period.

For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a spe..
eific sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower
rates, has been calculated, on which, as well as on the partici-
tating scale, ONE-HALF THE PREMIUM MAY RE-
MAIN ON INTEREST AT FIVE PER CENT. FOR
FIVE YEARS, thds enabling a person to assure his life for
1,000/. on the immediatepaymentof thepremium for 5001. only.
The following are the annual premiums for the assurance of
LW, for the whole life, one-half of which may remain for
years by merely paying the interest annually at five per
aTit., and should the policy become a claim in the interim the
mount due will then be deducted :
