II WILLIAM STREET,
New York, March, 1857
At the request of the President and BoaId Of Di-
rectors of the knickerbocker Life Insurance Com
pany, certify that the mode of computing present
value of the Policies employed by the Secretary of
the Company Is scientifically correct, and in ac-
cordance with the prescriptions of tho charter.
also certify, that have compared the list of poll
ces furnished me by the President as on the books
of the Company with valuation tables sufficiently to
test the accuracy of the results given by the Secre-
tary. and find the values stated within to be
merically correct That is to say, the present val
of the future risk Of the Office on all outstanding
policies, the difference between the present value
of future premiums to be paid them is S43 ,9G7 49,
The total value of policies, the holders of which
entitled to iiyiden<as, is S29,227 o.
And if the surplus is correctly stated at S7l 3l2 IL,
the difference betNees his and the present value of
the future ris1 Of the COMPANY existing policies,
after deduetng Taper cent Of it for the relief fund,
is the proper amount for dividend, to-wit Si 6l097
The true principle of dividend is to assign to each
policy holder who has insured on the mutual plan
share proportoGed to the present value of his poll
cy, which is the true value of his interest as stock
holder of the Company. This share amounts to 10

been an inmate of the Connecticut State
Prison four years, and was discharged on
expiration of sentence a year ago, was found
early Sunday morning in the female yard of

Been opening GOODS both fresh and gay,

That you in any city find;
And as he purchased by tile bale
He is determined to RETAIL
For READY PAY, a little lower
Than ever has been had before.
He with his brethren means to live,
But as for CREDIT shall not give,
He wouldn't live to rouse your passion,
For CREDIT here is out of fashion;

To the Brahmns all animal food, save that Of fi.hc

readily par.ake of the flesh of any animal whatever If
only, in the Of other Hindoos it be not killed
with their hand. The Rajpoots eat fish, mutton,
and venison fowls beef aud pork held in abmina.
ton Many castles follow the same rules. With somr,
however, pork is the vorte diet; beef only is prob.
tied. Those who shrink from the pollution of eating
the flesh Of domestic poultry will eagerly dcvour that
Fthe jungle fowl which differs from the gamecock only
in size. All Hindoos consider themselves defed by
contact only with feathers among the tribes the foot
Vt the haayas who are in other respects strict Hin
docs, this prejudice does MT exist An earthen pot is
polluted beyond redemption by being touched by one of
an inferior caste metal suffers such daterora-
t"n Coolies will carry any load, however offensive,
upon their heads; bid them carry for few p,ces
and, though it be matter Of life and DEATH they will
answer you that it is the business Of another caste The
Rohilas will submit to be aogged within an inch OF their
lives with eahern ,nartrgae, but be struck with

likely to be resented with bullet or stab Spirituos

parts Of Southern India the Brahmns partake Of them

women enjoy plurality Of husbands Among the
Totiyars the coast those within the degrees Of
