l. Company OF New York, No. SO Wall ST.
Net amount of accumulated premiums, s2l5,57L
This company Is organized on the purely mutual
principle and its business is restricted by the char
ter to the insurance of lives and granting annuities
and endowments.
1t commenced, without CAPT tai, the LIST Of Feb
rusry, lS43. At the close offs second year, (3lst
January, lS45 it had issued 086 policies, and It's
net accumulated premiums was s97 ,278. At the
termination Of the third year, the 3lst January,
1916, the whole number of policies issued 3 1873,
and Its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses, was SSH thus exhibiting
increase during the last year of DAT policies is
sued, and 1928 of accumulated funds, which IL
rapidly augmentng by an annual income Of $780,
600, growing out of original and renewed premiums
and interest on investments.
This extraordinary success places the company
in strong position, and 1t now ranks among the
safest institutions in the country.
Policy-hoders participate in the whole of the
profits, there being no proprietary interest or sub
scribed capital to absorb any portion thereof An
extensive and prosperous business promises large
dividends the first division of profits on the lst
of February, l848, and persons now nsuring will
share in these profits if they survive that period
The premiums paid annually and are as low
as any American company, and lower than the
English, with participation in the profits. Policy
holders are secured by investments in bonds and
mortgages on real estate in the city Of New York
and Brooklyn, worth double the amount loaned
thereon, and in stocks of the State and city of New
York.
The transactions of this company are on the
cash principle--consequenuy the survivors of par
ties insuring with il will not be subjected to the
heavy drawback Of accumulated premium notes;
reducing the benefit of the assurance to small pit
lance.
Persons may effect insurance on their own lives
and the lives Of Others. carried woman can insure
the life of her husband which will enure to her sole
use and that of her children.

mutual life insurance, and illustrating its advan-
tages, with forms of application, may be obtained at

HOwELL's Patent Tanning Machine.

HOWELL'S Patent Tanning Machine.
IL The great saving Of time and labor effected by
this machine renders it one Of the most valuable Of
modern inventions, being of the utmost importance
to those already engaged in the manufacture of leah
er, besides offering the greatest inducements to 9TH
ers for starting the business.
by this machine, which in its operation strictly
follows tho principles of the old way, all kinds Of
hides and skins may be tanned, not only 80 as to
produce superior article of leather but with q sa-
wing OF seVenty-hve per cent. in time, and fifty per
cent. in labor, besides great economy in bark or
tanning material
A tannery in which the improved method was
adopted, would, by its savings alone be attended
with large profits, whilst a neighboring one where
the old plan was pursued would be losing money.
The invention, which has been awarded a gold
medal by the American Institute, as being the most
valuable Improvement ever introduced into this
branch OF manufactures, has given the highest salts
faction in the different States in which il is in
In the opinion Of practical men who have adopted
the improvement, at the cost of about five hundred
dollars an establishment can be started which will
tan two thousand sides of sole leather or four thou
sand calf skins per annum, at fifty per cent. less than
the usual expense Of manufacture. Where greater
amount Of business is required to be done, addl-
tional outlay, of course, will be necessary By this
machine sole leather be thoroughly tanned in
twenty to thirty days, upper leather in two weeks,
and cafskins in from three to seven DAYS The
subscribers offer for sale single and county rights
for the above, and will afford the most liberal fac
ties to those purchasing State rights for the purpose
