ESRANKLIN FIRE INSURANCE COM
n PANY OF PHILADELPHIA continues to take
risks upon every description of property, either in
town or country lie would call the attention of pro-
perry holders particularly to the subject of perpetual
inS,Tdnce-a mode Of insurance successfully adopted
by the Company he represents, and winch has become
very general in Philadelphia The mode is this: To
insure substantial brick dwelling store, the pro-
prleol would deposit with the Company according
to the character and situation of the hui!dug,) from
y to 81 per cent upon the amount intended to be in
snrcd. As long "a this deposit remains with the Com
pany, the insurance continues without the trouble of
an annual renewal.
The deposit may be withdrawn at any time with
deduction Of five per cent? and the policy cancelled.
This mode of Insurance. brsideS avoiding the trouble
OF renewal and the risk Of omission, will be found TO
be much cheaper than the Ordinary mode. For in
stancea first dwelling would he insured 10 the
amount of $1,000 by deposit of2 per cent, say S42j
the annual interest on W, ich would he only STD
whereas insurance on the same house cost BY the or
binary mode, AT the very lowest rate, the annual
premium of Sl2jO.
