NVHENCE can it arise that the obvious security and ad-
vantages of Life Assurance should be so little regarded
in Liverpool ?—that its inhabitants, as remarkable for pru-
dence as for enterprise, should, on this point alone, be so
reckless ? Of the thousands who are toiling early and late
to provide for their families, many must drop off' long before
that object can be accomplished ; yet how few have Assu-
rances upon their lives, and for this the reason usually as-
signed is, " that they have not had time to think of Life
Assurance." They have time for every commercial opera-

tion, however unimportant, but they have no time for one
transaction of half- an hour, requiring only an annual pay-
ment afterwards, to place their families beyond the reach of
want after their death—an event rendered not less probable
by the fatigues and anxieties of commercial life. Hardly a
vessel leaves the Thames without the captain and passengers
of ships belonging to London houses having Assured their
Lives ; whilst from the Mersey thousands proceed annually to
the States, to British America, the East and West Indies, and
tothe_greatnationnow rising up in Australasia, largely in-

debtedto Liverpool merchants
