?THAT " Union is strength," is an axiom universally
admitted, and a strong exemplificition of its truth may
be found in the establishment of the Licensed Victuallers'
School and Asylum. These two very interesting and impor-
tant institutions afford demonstrative evidence of the power
and advantage of united and well-organised exertion. The
same energies so laudably displayed in the cause of benevo-.
lence,—to support the orphan and protect the aged,—when
directed to the establishment of a FIRE andlIFE ASSUR-
ANCE SOCIETY, founded on principles of equity and
economy, have proved not only of great national importance,
but, from the number and aggregate resources of the Licensed
Victuallers, of incalculable advantage to that body at large.
When it is remembered that there are now in existence the
Law, the Clerical, and Medical Assurance Societies, each
formed primarily-for a particular class of persons, it will not
appear unreasonable that so large and influential a body of
men as the Licensed Victuallers of England—a body exceed-
ing Ninety Thousand, and whose annual returns of capital
approximate to £6o,ooo,ooo—should possess a similar insti-
tution. Its extensive and beneficial operations, during the
past two years, may be quoted as an earnest of its future
success.

While, however, this Society has been formed by them, and
for their mutual benefit, it is not confined exclusively to-their
own body, but is open to all classes of individuals who may
wish to partake of its various advantages.
The objects embraced by it are—
First,—lnsuring Houses, Furniture, Stock-in-Trade, and
every description of Personal Property, against Loss or Da-
mage by Fire. _

aecoild,—Assurance on Lives and Survivorships, and En-
dowments for Children.

Third,—Granting Immediate, Deferred, and Survivorship
Annuities.

Fourth,—Purchasing Contingent and Reversionary Pro-
perty, advancing Money on Annuity, Mortgage, and other
Securities.

FIRE DEPARTMENT,

The Premiums for insuring common and double Hazardous
Risks, on Goons and BUILDINGS, are on the same scale as
other Fire-offices.
THE LIFE DEPARTMENT
Of this Society enables a Person to provide for his family
after his Death, and also affords the power of making pro-
vision for himself during Life by granting Annuities, either
Immediate, Deferred, or Survivorship ; indeed all the objects.
proposed by the " National Loan Fund Society" can be qf-
fect ed by this Company.
The fullest particulars will be furnished upon application
to the Agents.
