 Secued Profits of Fr,x Years
 Over Half n Million of Doliarsi
 HSHE following statement may serve to explain IL the peculiar advantages of this system of Mutual Insurance. ''-'
 While the premiums charged, conditions of insur- ance and general mode of transactng business, are precisely similar those of he most approved Stock Companies, the net profits of ihis Company, instead of being paid Stockholders, divided annually among those who pay the premiums in proportion 10 DO much of the amount paid by each shall be earn- ed on the 18th of December of each year, and scrip certificates issued for the same, bearing such terest as arises from the investment of the profits in Bonds and Mortgages. and Public Stocks.
 It is to be presumed, that the premiums of each year will not only pay all the losses and expenses of that year, but will enable the company to divide surplus among the insued, thereby also increasing the security of the insured (which now consists of ihe accumulated profits of five years, OVER HALF A MILLION OF DoLLARs.) But should the contrary occur and should the losses and expenses of any year exceed the earned premiums-the excess of loss will be assessed on all the scrip previously issued.
 The charter expressly provides that the insured cannot in any case incur loss beyond the amount of his premiums.
 Applications will be received at the office of the Agency corner ofSt Francis and Royal-sts up stairs declO ROBERT s. BUNKER, Agent.

Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1845-07-10

President is discharging calmly, with the
desire to preserve peace, yet still firmly
and fearlessly with determination, also
to preserve, at all hazards, the integrity
and honor of the country. The cores
ponding duty on the part ofthc people
will be to sustain him. We do not doubt
that the latter are willing and ready to do
1t. The unanimous support oftbe demo-
cratic press--the honorable and lncreals'
ingtestmonials daily coming forth from the
whig press, are indications OF such sup
port. So that, should negotiations fall
should Great Britain, in its rapacity to
control the immense trade of the East
madIy refuse to listen either to the claims
of honor or humanity the last ter
ribe resort be at hand, there is now the
guaranty that the united strength of the
country will periodically rally round the
folds Of the star spangled banner.
Such union among Americans at this
time can have no other than the most ben
e6cia action. The Journals, the same
as the British public, already have drank
in the factions words Of high and mad
doned par,isans on this side the water
They naturally catch at such declarations
as the wing press have made, viz; that
Great Britain, if she joins with Mexico,
will but act in self defence, and that the
north, if war ensues, will no, fight south
ern battles.
Hence they are continuing on dis7nlon.
They say that we are but nation OF
shreds and patches, They talk as though
single broadside from their batteries
will blow US into fragments, 1t is time
that those who have spark of national
honor or patriotism should pause, when
they see such results flowing from the
words and actions Of partisans among us
This reckless caumny upon our own
government, this eulogistic strain towards
foreigners, is wrong. it is reasonable
Away with it! In its place let us have
in relation TO our foreign transactions UN-
ION. Let the great power, that is now so
actively engaged in interfering with Tex
as and in occupying Oregon, see that how,
ever, as Americans, we may quarrel a
bout domestic concerns, yet we stand on
the great sovereign right to treat with
another Independent nation for territory
and in maintaining what is already ours.
There is no better way than this to pre-
serve the inestimable blessing of peace
to avert the Understandable horrors Of war.
And let all who wish to be true to their
country lash those-ethcr wings or abo-
litioniss-who would malign it or divide
it, as traitors,

GOV. VAN NESS.

Some of the Coon papers find it hard to
credit the assertion Of Gen. Van Ness that
G. p. Van Ness was instrumental in the
change OF Vermont from federalism to de-
moCracy. If the Editors Of these papers
will look back to the war of 1919, it will
take but little examination to show the in
Auence of G. p. Van Ness in the rcvoIu-
ton Of the federal politics Of the State OF
Vcrmont-whcn the country was bleeding
at every pore, the lederalists held the reIns
ofGovcrnment in Vermont--relused to al.
low the militia to pass the state line, sent
Durham and Hall to the Hartford Con-
ventlon and in every way aided the ieder-
era'lst OF New England in their efforts to
help old England reconquer the United
States. Great Britain was then supposed
by federalism to be the defender of liberty
and the "Bulwark OF Religion" Mr. Van
Ness rallied the democracy and Vermont
threw Off the federal yoke. When J. @.
Adams was Presldent-the democrats sup
ported him ond since that time federalism
has ruled the state of Vermont. The
statesmen and patriots Of the war Of 1912
will never cease to be objects Of the at
tacks Of the Coons.
