TINE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
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 il restricted by the char
ter the insurance Of lives and granting annuities
and endowments.
Ii commenced, without CAPT tal on the LIST Of Feb
ruary l643. At the close Of its second year. (3lst
January lS45 it had issued 066 pslicies, and It's
net accumulated premiums was 1928. At the
termination Of the third year. on the 3lst January,
1896 the whole number of policies issued was 1873,
and Its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses, s2l5 57l; thus exhibiting
an increase during the last year of O47 policies is
sued, and sll6, 27S Of accumulated funds, which il
rapidly augmenting by annual income of $780,
900, growing out of original and renewed premiums
and interest on investments.
This extraordinary success places the company
in a strong position, and it 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 on the first division of profits the LIST
of February, l848, and persons now insuring will
share in these profits if they survive that period.
The premiums are paid annually, and low
rs 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 prnciple-consequently the survivors Of par
ties insuring with it will not be subjected to the
heavy drawback of accumulated premium notes
reducing the benefit Of the assurance to a small pit
lance.
Persons may effect insurance on their own lives
and the lives Of others A carried woman can insure
the life OF her husband, which will enure her sole
use and that of her children.
Pamphlets explanatory Of the principles Of
mutual life insurance, and illustrating its advan-
tages, with forms of application, may be obtained al
