TNHE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
II 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 annuties
and endowments.
1t commenced, without capi tai, on the lst of Feb
ruary l643 At the close of its second year, (3lsl
January l645 it had issued ,056 policies and its
net accumulated premiums was s97 ,272. At the
termination Of the third year, on the 2lst January,
l546 the whole number of policies issued was ,09O,
and its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses was S2l5, ST.; thus exhibiting
an increase during the last year of lO47 policies is
sued, and sll6, ,265 Of accumulated funds, which is
rapidly augmenting by an annual income of $3.50, =
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-holders participate in the whole of the
profits, there being no proprietary interest or sub
sCrbed capital to absorb any portion thereof An
extensive and prosperous business promises large
dividends on the first division Of profits the lst
Of February, l64S, and persons now insuIing will
share in these profits if they survive that period.
The premiums are paid annually, and are as low
ns 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 small pit
lance.
Persons NAV effect insurance on their own liyct
and the lives Of others. s,arred woman can insure
the life of her husband, which will enure her sole
use and that Of her children. ..

mutual life insurance, and illustrating its advan

nR. DYorpS ANTl-BILIoUs PILLS

D-As tuully medicine, mlld ana gentle pur.
gatve, and purifier of the blood The general
States for these forty years past and the suong
concentrations they have acquired from all classes
of our fellow-citizens, places them in a much more
elevated situation IN public estimation, than any
other remedy which has heretofore been introduced.
The following are among the many diseases for
which Dr. Dyotts celebrated pills are deseryedly
distinguished for curing. BY their counteracting
properties in removing the bile from the stomach,
they prevent and cure the bilious fever; ehills, or
ague and fever; spring and fall feyers; yellow fever;
bilious cholic; pleursy; dysenteryj worms; bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach. ..'
BY cleansing the bowels and stomach from all inn
purues, they restore the loss of appetite, remove
fatulency, the headache, habitua costiyeness,
colds, coughs, asthma, epilepuc fits, hypochondria,
hysterical complaints, stranguary, gravel, &c.
By general and copIous use, they will be found
very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and gout,
lumbago pains in the back.
All impurities In the blood yield to their happy
effects, whether proceeding from constitutional all
ment, or from indiscreet lntemperanee.
These celebrated pills have been used to very
great advantage in curing the dyspepsia or ndiges-
ton, bronchitis, liver complaint, &c.
They are an infallible medicine for female com
plants generally, and especially for removing those
Instructions which are the source Of their ailments
at certain periods they possess the eminent advan-
tage over most other purgatiyes, that, while they
operate gently they produce neither cosveness, de-
blllty, or too great excitement.
Whenever there is predispostion to receive
disease from marsh efiluvia, or from too copious
use of ardent spirits, from a vtiaed state of the
bile, these pills will assuredly counteractit.
They are highly recommended to travellers by
sea or land, and may be made use of with safety
without change Of diet, and in situations where
exercise can be used. They will be found particu-
arly valuable for preventing diseases incidental to
hot climates; they deerge and cleanse viscid humors
open distractions, and promote the secretion OF
good bile, operate as an easy cathartic, power
fu diuretc, and diaphoretc.
DR.. Dyot, under the strong conviction of the
power Of his pills to relieve the afflicted, recon-.
mends the use of them to those who are in health
as well as the afflicted, at leace fortnight du-
ring the spring and summer months, in which he
feels assured those who attend to his advice will
find the benefit they seek
