Vermont Mutual Fire Insurance Company

We always examine with satisfaction the |
annual report of the Vermont Mutual Fire
Insurance Company. There is such direct
and clear statement of what it has DONE of
the principles on which it conducts its bust
mess of the rates of insurance, Of the times
anl amounts of the assessments, Of the re-
ccipts in fair detail. and Of the expenditures
in still greater detail, with an enumeration
of all the losses which have been paid during
the year, that one feels confidence in its
report uncqudllcd in any other case that we
are aware Of
The twenty-eighth annual report says the
Company have now in force 10, l5j policies,
insuring property to the amount
of Sl6,65O,O75 90
The premium notes, on which
assessments are laid, as losses
occur, amount to 81 ,2lO OBJ 81
The assessments laid on them to cover the
losses Of the year, amount to a per cent,
which is the average annual assess acnt for
the whole time of The company's existence
Insurers in the company should understand
that the 81 per cent Of annual assessment is
not q per cent on the value Of the property
insured, but 81 per cent on the amount of
the premium note only.
\ clear notion of the actual cost Of nsu-
rance will be given by an example. Suppose
a two story dwelling house Of wood stand
Ing with its barn and wood-house so free from
other buildings as to have but moderate ex-
posture from them. The owner gets say
$4,000 insured on his house, barn, wood
house, and furniture. Such property falls in
the first class, and i. rated say ut 5 per cent
lin reality. VIC presume four ftths Of the
farm house properties are rated at per
cent ia' r uium note wonll BE- Sl"H
and the r,ii.. rils ljr siN YEAR
amount actually paid would "a: As follows
3 per cent on the note at beginning. $50,
Paid for policy, 81
Average assessment 81 per cent for i
years, 1873
Total paid in six years S23 -,
For one year. 3.s3
On 1000 dollars. 81
On 100 dollars, 10
That is. less than one fifth Of on. PER cen
} on the property insured,
There are SIR classes Of property, distri
l butedaccording to the risk Of loss as the table
Of all losses for twenty eight years show
9 to be, on the average. The more ha2ardou
;, the property the higher the rate for whc
: the premium note is given, and of course tn
Il larger the amount actually paid, as should
u the case.

PnlLADEIPHIA-THE WHEELER SLAVE Mar
TER. SES1E>crs.--O Saturday the colored
men Gusts and Ballard, who were convicted
of an assault and battery on Col. John
Wheeler were called up FOR sentence.
Mr.. VIM. II. Pierce, defendants counsel
offered evidence in cxtenuation of any pun
ishment the Court might think proper 10
inlct 1t was then submitted il evidence
that these men, when arrested on the 10Th Of
July last. were taken TO the Cherry street
station House, Sixth Ward, and locked in a
cell with three others (arrcsted for the same
offtuse) and kept there twenty hours without
food, the Thermometer standing at % deg
The heat in the cell was so iHtolerahle that
the men had to strip off all their clothes
They were thence taken to prison, where they
were incarccrated ten days, and only release
by the interposIton Of the Conrt of Quarter
Sessions The counsel called two 81 the for
mcr co-dcfcndants of the prisoners, and they
both swore that Ballard was not on the upper
deck of the boat at all
Judge Kelly said tina; they had perfect
right to 60 to the boat and tel the woman
Jane of her rights but that by their actions
they had injured the cause they no doubt al
heart wished to serve. lie reproved them iol
the use Of violence and the threatening Ian
guage they had nsed
That. in the sentence he was about TO pass
upon them he had in view the circumstance
of the case-the outrageous holding to bal
by the Alderman in an enormous sum, the
sutftrings they had been subjected to, an
the fact that very large witness bill had
been presented against them, he would onl,
sentence each to pay fine of $40 and costs
and one week s imprisonment.

RIors AND THEIR EFFtCTs.-The following
Circumstance, we'll authenticated, was related
to us yesterday. On Monday, an Indiana
merchant from one of the largest Interior
towns gave orders to several eff the Louisville
wholesale houses for bills of goods. On the
afternoon and night of that day occurred
those terrible riots and destruction of human
life which will give Louisville Worldwide,
though an uncnviable notoriety. On Tues
day morning. the Indiana merchant went to
each of the houses to whom he had given or
ders and conutrrmanded them, saying that
he would never purchased dollars worth of
goods IN a city where such terrible outrages
On life and property were tolerated, The
names Of all the parties to this transaction
have been given to us, and there can be no
question as TO its truth.-Indidnd Sentinel.
