of nearly similar amount was declared in June, 1836. At each
period the Bonuses allotted to the different Policies averaged

LIFE DEPARTMENT.
J. T. CLEMENT, Esq , Actuary.
_

A sum far more than e9ual 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 benus 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 iuttrest.
The quinquennial meeting being only just past, a favourable
opportunity now offers for the commencement of new Insu-
rances; parties now joining will be allowed to participate in
the profits at the next division, as if they had been insured for
the whole period.
For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a spe.
cific sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower
rates, has been calculated, on which, as well as on the partici-
pating scale, ONE-HALF THE PREMIUM MAY RE-
MAIN ON INTEREST AT FIVE PER CENT. FOR
FIVE YEARS, thus enabling a person to assure his life for
1,0001. on the immediate payment of the premium for 5001. only.
The following are the annual premiums for the assurance of
100/., for the whole life, one-half of which may remain for
five years by merely paying the interest annually at five per
cent., and should the policy become a claim in the interim the
amount due will then be deducted

forany ages or contingencies not usually advertised, information
may be obtained on application to the Actuary or Secretary.
