main unpaid after FIFTEEN days from the quarter day above

tion have the choice of two plans :

charge for management being deducted from the profits, and
that the assured are exempt from all liability of partnership.
The ABATEMENT of Premium for the year 1813 on Poli-
cies of five years' standing, under the first of the above
plans is £3llos. 2d. per cent.
The future annual abatement must vary according to the
success of this branch of the Corporation's business.
