GREAT REDUCTION IN THE INSURANCE OF
FARMING STOCK.

And Sixty Directors.
In consequence of the diminution of incendiary practices
on the property of Farmers during the last few years, the
Directors of the County Fire Office feel enabled to reduce
the premium for the Insurance of Farming Stock to Is. 9d.
per cent., without the average clause, and ls. 3d. with the
average clause.
It is now Thirty-three years since the County Fire Office
was instituted, for the express benefit of country residents,
and under the supervision of local Directors—it has been
eminently successful—it is the only Fire Office that has made
regular and large returns to the parties insured. Thesehave
been constant, and have amounted to £123,000. During the
above period, upwards of Forty Insurance Offices have broken
up, some with the loss of every thing. Among the extra-
ordinary number which have recently sprung up, many are
evidently intended not to last. The closing of the Royal
Union Office in Lancaster-place, which took place a few
weeks since, and the complaints of numerous persons at Bow-
street, who had deposited all they possessed in that Office,
and were left destitute, is a warning that ought not be disre-
garded. AGErcis.

WEST OF ENGLAND FIRE AND LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
CAPITAL, £600,000.
President—The Right Honourable Lord CLIFFORD.
FIRE INSURANCES continue to be granted on the
plan of admitting the Insured into a participation of
the Surplus at the end of every Fifth Year, from which the
Public have already derived considerable returns.
LIFE INSURANCES.—Bonuses have been declared on
Policies, by adding to the Sums Insured, payable at the de-
cease of" the Life, or an equivalent reduction of the future
Annual Premiums, at the option of the Insured. This ad-
vantage, added to the reduced rates of Premiums, renders
the terms of this Company particularly favourable to the In-
sured.

This Company's business is still increasing, and the esti-
mation in which the Institution is held, may be inferred from
the fact, that, as a Fire Office, it ranks the Seventh in the
Kingdom ; and, as a Life Office, the extent of its business is
not inferior to that of the first-rate Companies.
