LIFE ASSURANCE,

rrink: eminent success of this Company- is mainly to be at-
tributed to the soundness and liberality of its system,
combining the benefit of MUTUAL AsstinaNcE with the
safety which a wealthy and influential Proprietary affords.
The following are amongst the advantages this Office offers
to the Public

Ist. The Security of a Capital of ONE MILLION fully
subscribed, in addition to the ACCUMULATED FUND
dvrived from LIFE Premiums, and an Annual RE-
VENUE ALREADY EXCEEDING SEVENTY-FIVE
THOUSAND POUNDS, and rapidly increasing.
2d. The option qf Participating in the Profits, or paying
a tower rate of Premium, to secure a precise sum
without periodical additions.—BoNuses may either
be added to the sum Insured, or applied in REDUC-
TION of FUTURE PREMIUMS. The last BONUS (de-
clared December, 1837) averaged THIRTY-SEVEN
PER CENT. on the Premiums Paid.
3d. Rates of Premium, now REDUCED to the LOWEST
SCALE compatible with safety to the Assured and
the stability of the Corporation.
4th. The option of paying only half the Annual Premium
for the FIRST five years, with Interest on the other
half, at the rate of five per cent. per annum.
sth. LOANS rsade on Policies to the extent of half the
St 4 WS Insured, on approved Security, Real or Per-
sonal.
tith. No Entrance Money or other charge, except the
Policy Stamp.

THE THIRD SEPTENNIAL INVESTIGATION of the COM-
pally's Affairs lakes place in December, 1844, when, from
its extended connexion, rapidly increasiny business, and
profitably Invested Accumulations, a considerable addition
to the existing Policies may be confidently anticipated. IN
THE COURSE OF LAST YEAR. THREE HUNDRED AND FORTY-
SEVEN NEW LIFE POLICIES WERE ISSUED, Insuring TWO
HUNDRED AND EIGHTY THOUSAND TWO HUN-
DRED AND NINETY POUNDS, THUS SATISFACTORILY
PROVING THE HIGH ESTIMATION IN WHICH THE COMPANY
IS 1-IEI.II JAY THE PUBLIC.

FIRE INSURANCE.
PROPERTY insured against Loss or Damage by Eire at the
LOWEST RATES OF PREMIUM corresponding to the risk.
Farming Stock is insured without the average clause. Loss
