The Charter Of this Company offers more tavora-

Company chartered in the State, by irsuring
with or without Il premium note. II the applicant
prefer, l!c pay the full amount of the premium
in cash. or by cIccting cash insurance for tive
years. the insured saves one -eig gh;a Of the amount
he would otherwise have tc pay; or hy bccomnga
member, and giving small premium note, the in
sured saves nearly "ne-half Of the amount charged
by Stock Companies, when irsuring from year 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 IRE, on the l3th day oi
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. haTlng
increased business during the past year, we feel
grateful! ior the liberia! patronage bestowed npon
the Company thus far, and for its Ilatterng pros
poets Of future usefulness. The Directors hope
AMI believe, that by prudence, caution, and rigid
system Vi economy, they will establish for this
Company reputation for chaapncss and safely
not surpassed by any Company in the U. States.
