THAT " Union is Strength," is an anxiom universally
admitted, and a strong exemplification 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 and Life Assurance
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 Victuallera,
of incalculable advantage to that body at large.
When It is zememberod f.,at thore axe 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
Damage by Fire.
Second.—Assurance on Lives and Survivorships, and
Endowments 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 com-
mon and double Hazardous Risks, on Goods and Buildings,
are on the same scale as other Fire-offices.
LIFE DEPARTMENT of this Society enables a Person to
provide for his family after his death, and also affords the
power of making provisions for himself Life by grant-
ing Annuities, either Immediate, Deferred, or Survivorship ;
indeed all the objects proposed by the National Loan Fund
Society can be effected by this Company.
The fullest particulars will be furnished upon application
to the Agents.
