S53,057 o.

The business of this Company will compare favor
ably with the most suooessfal similar institutions in
the United States.
From the LIST day of August 1885, in fifteen months,
up to the LIST day of November 1855, the premiums
and interest received amounted to the large sum OF
four hundred thousand one hundred and eighty live
dollars and sixty eight CENTS with the payment OF
losses and ex penses OF one hundred and seventy
seven Thousand one hundred and twenty eight dol
lars and Six y-One cents.
With these evidences of success and good man
agement, the Directors feel justified in soliciting
share OF public patronage believing that the security
offered is ample, and that all fair claims will be ad
lusted more according to equity than legal technical
tiles.
The Company is prepared to issue policies against

And fond OF has pipe. and fond of his beer,
Rut horror he has for his scot"
All Through the city each morn he goes,
The weather no matter what,
And from Union Square to Delmonico's
He drinks ali the way-then on he goes
Wherever good cheer can be got.
At night you'll find him up town at Thorp's,
With his ey on pewter pot;
And IT youth comes in, from his seat he pops,
And hints to him something of the ''prioe of hops"
And crack a free drink he's got
No money Of AIS ever goes to the till,
And for this his argument short,
For he says. every Jack has a rig Int to his gill,
And thar every good fellow should have his nil,
Whether he pays for the liquor nOt.'
One day veutured to ask him his name,
And said he. q IL you'll st and, why not'"

And hlccup'd, "Old f-e-eller. I'm kno-o-own to
