The charter of this Company offers more fa vorable advantages to the farmer and other*, than any other company chartered in the State, by insuring wither without a premium note.— li the applicant preter,he can pa)' the lull amount ol* the premium in cash, or by effecting a ca-ii insurance lor two years, thejnsured save- one eighth of the amount he would otherwise ha\e to pay: or by becoming a member, am! giv ing .1 small premium note, the insured saves nearly ouehalfot the amount charged by Stock Compa nies, when insuring from year to year, l ias is the advantage resulting from the combination ot THE CASH AND MUTUAL PRINCIPLE. This company commenced issuing Policies against loss or damage by lire, on the 10th ot March, 1S04, since which time over thirty live hundred persons have insured and become mem bers of the Company. Having trebled our bu siness during the past year, we leel grateiul toi the liberal patronage bestowed upon the Compa ny thus far, and for its Mattering prospects ot future usefulness. The Directors hope and be lieve that by prudence, caution and a rigid s\> tern of economy, they will establish tor thi* Company a reputation for cheapness and safety, not surpassed by any Company in tlie ( . Mates. All differences in settlement ol losses, may be determined by three disinterested arbitrators ol the County where such loss happened, to be mu tually chosen by the insured and the i'ompan).

VA.— CAPITAL OVfcitt $*00,000, AND CONSTANTLY I N C K EASIN'!. The charter of this Company offers more fa vorable advantages to the farmer and others, than any other company' chartered in the Stare, by insuring with or without a premium note.— It the applicant preter.he can pay the lull amount of the premium in cash, or by effecting a cash insurance for two years, the insured saves one eighth of the amount he would otherwise have to pay: or by becoming a member, and giving a emu I I liruminm h/ifo f L nicnroJ ej vnw nna rl V one ball ot the amount charged by Stock Compa nies, w hen insuring 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 tire, on the 16th of March, 1854, since which time over thirty-five hundred persons have insured and become mem bers of the Company. Having trebled our bu siness during the past year, we leel grateful for the liberal patronage bestowed upon the Compa ny thus far. and lor its flattering prospects of tutu re usefulness. The Directors hope and be lieve that by prudence, caution and a rigid sys tem of economy, they will establish lor this Company a reputation for cheapness and safety, not surpassed by any Company in the U. States. All differences in settlement of losses, may be deteimined by three disinterested arbitrators 01 the County where such loss happened, to be mu tually chosen by the insured and the Company.
