 The benefit and good policy of Insurance was most fully demonstrated by the fire in New Mil ford
 At that fire, nearly half the business portion of the village was destroyed, and the loss of a large amount of property both in buildings mer- chandiss, furniturs, &s., was the inevitable re- suit.
 The loss of property by the fire was probably from 20 to 33,0o0 dollars-and in the adjust msnt of tho insurance, an amount exceeding s26,00o was promptly paid the insured, through their Agent, Mr. Lockwood.
 The loss by the fire falls heavily on few in dividuals least able to bear it-but that WIS the result of their lessladequats insurance.
 lis not too much to say, that without the aid of the insurance paid. many of tho sufferers by the frs would have been unable to rebuild -bus owing to the very general insurance which had been effected on the property destroyed, the burnt Idistrict is being rapidly rsbuilt Even iu mid winter, and enl.- afssr lapse of . few weeks, buildings arc going up very rapidly. 1 By the lst of June usxt, the burnt district will be restored, and that too. mostly by the axails of Insurance policies. I This village is rapidly recovsrisg from the effects of the fire. Five new buildings are in process of erection, and nearly completed upon the old foundations. The prepristors are L. g.
