The Charter OF this Company offers more iavora-
bic advantages to the farmer and others, than amy
Company chartered i'll the State, by ln"urlng
with or without Il premium note. If the applicant
prefer, he can pay the fail amount Of the premium
in cash, or by c!Tcuting cash insurance for tive
years, the insured saves onc-cightn Of the amoant
he would otherwise have to pay; or by becoming
member. and giving small premium note, tie IN
surcd saves nearly orc-half Of the amount charged
by Stock Companies, when inSuring from year to
wear. This is the advantage resulting IRON the
combination OF the
CASH AND MUTUAL PRINCIPLE.

AGAINST loss or damage by fire, on the 18th day OF
March, 1854, since which time over seven thousand
seven hundred persons have insured ana become

sand dollars have been paid for losses. Having
increased our business during the past year. We feel
gratefu! for the liberia! patronage bestowed upon
the Company thus far, and for its hattcrlnS pros
poets of future usefulness. The Directors hope
and believe ,Iat, by prudence canton. and 'rlEld
system Of economy, they will establish Tor tins
Company reputation for chcapneSs ana safety
not SURPASSED by any Company in the L. States.
All differences in settlement OF losses, may b'
determined by three disintereSted abi:ratorS OF the
