The rates of premium offered, are as low at those of any oilier similar institution ; and every inan has now an opportunity, for a trifling sum, to protect himself against the ravages of this destructive element, which often, in a tingle hoar sweeps away the earnings of many years. 'Vne Company also isues Policies, on the most favorablelermr, against lot or damage on the Hulls at Steam-Boats, and on the Car 'oes of Sieam. Keel, and Flat-Boat, while . , , navigating ihe esier.a Kivert, L.akea, and canals, ana upon Cargoes of Sea Vessels. L'niJer the liberal and enlightened policy which the Company adopted at the commencement of their operations in the Western Countrr, and which they have steadily pursued j to the pre-ent time, the number of policies issued have legular:y increased from year to jear; so mat ior several years passed, the office has covered, in the Western Country, principally in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and Illinois, nearly 2000 risks annually. It would be difficult to presenta stronger evidence of public confidence than tnese facts exhibit.
