SOUTHERN PROTECTION INSURANCE
-- COMP NY,
-... ALEXANDRIA,, VIRGINIA.


AND CONSTANTLY INCREASING.
The Charter of this Company offers more favora-
BILE advantages to the farmer and Others than any
Company chartered in the State, by insuring
with or without premium note. II the applicant
prefer, he can pay the full amount OF the premium
in cash, or by ehecting cash insurance Tor Two
years, the insured saves ghth Of the amount
he would otherwise havc to pay; or by becoming
member, and giving a small premium note, the in
sured saves nearly one half Of the amount charged
By Stock Companies, when insuring from yoar to
year. This is the advantage resulting from the
combination OF the
CASH AND MUTUAL PRINCIPLE.
This Company commenced issuing Policies
against loss or damage by fire, on the 18TH day OF
March, 1854, since which time over seven thousand
seven hundred persons have insured and become
members Of the Company, and over seventy thou
sand dollars have been paid for losses. Having
increased our business during the past year, we feel
grateful! for the liberal patronage bestowed upon
tho Company thus far, and for its hattering pros
poets of future usefulness. The Directors hope
and believe that, by prudence, caution, and lgd
system of economy, they will establish tor TINS
Company Il reputation for chcapncss and safety
not surpassed by any Company in the U. States.
All differences in settlement Of losses, may be
determined by three dsinterescd arbitrators of the
County where such loss happened, to be mutually
chosen by the insured and the Company.
