Insurance following from the Com
mercial Bulletin upon the subject of Iosu-
rance is worthy of attention.;
One difficulty in the insurance business,
just now, is the extreme low rates at which
some companies continue to isspe policies;
in the face of certainty that the immediate
series of heavy losses would lead to the serious
impairment of their capital, and perhaps
force them to the Wall. Here in New Eng
laud, we have an honest and vIglant Commls-
soner, who prevents the bnzzards on under
writing from dropping atsOng US; but every
week We hear of Insurers sending away, ne
gotiating and efecting assurances in tht Sc air
bubbles, solely because ''the rates ale low"
Experience teaches that in these extre nelly
cheap Offices losses are frequently qnbbed
over, materially cut down, conprom sed for
in paying, if not entirely evaded. Laws are
inadequate to protect those who persist in
running into the ms of tricksters and knaves.
Honest insurance companies eau no more al
ford to continually shave and cut uOder on
rates, than standard manufacturing corpora
tons eau afford TO sell their best productions
at the rates quoted for the poorest line of
goods Fair living rats, it is fully proved,
are these adopted by the National Board OF
Underwriters, 10 1868, on all classes of risks
Tnere are benefi s aud advantages, even when
these rate are closely adhered TO, incident to
nearly all our standard companies, that the
insured will not be long in discovering. The
country is 50 large and its fsclisies SO ample
that monopolies or exaggerated rates on insu-
rance could not be maintained.
