PROPOSALS,
BY THE
Injurance Company of North America.
For Insor\nce apainft Fire, on Dwtilling-
Houses, Ware-Houses, and other Buildings (and
on Goods contained in such Buildings) distant from
Philadelphia, in the United Stat-..
T. Common lufurancei, on hazards of the SrJl
class, will be undertaken at a premium of ahout
halt per cent, per annum. For extra hazardous
rifqoes a larger premium will be required, which
will vaiy according to circunsftances, fridom ex
ceeding one per cent, per annum ; but in some i«-
stances, where the property insured i-s not only in
itfclf extrahazardous, but rendered ftiil morefo
by the vicinity of extra hazardous buddings and
occupations, the premium demanded will be railed
according to circumstances.
Howies and Ware-Houses, the walls and parti
tions of which are wholly of stone or brick, well
conftrnilfed, so as to li t guarded as well as may be
against fires from within, and iree lrom extra ha
zardous buildings and occcupations in.their neigh
borhood, will be deemed hazardous of the firft
class, and may be insured to their full value.
Also Goods and Merchandize, not o» an extra
hazardous kin*d, in calks, biles, or pack-agas, dc
pofitcd in such buildings, to an amount not .ex
ceeding 4000 dollars ; but if more than thisfum.
is required to be insured in one tenemcat, an addi
tional premium will be required, in proportion to
circumstances.
11. lnfurances will also be made on buildings ana
goods extra hazardous, at premiums proportioned
to th# risque. But it is not easy to arrange these
under particular heads or clafies, so as to dcfcribe
each with tbe necessary accuracy. Each cafe mull
therefore be decidedupon accordingto the circum
stances attending it ; and these circumstances wili,
in general, appear from the description accompa
uy:ng the application.
Buddings partly conftru&ed of brick or flone,
are preferaliie to those wholly wooder. _ And in
both cases, the stile of building, how they are oc
cupied, how they are fituited, the neighboring
buildings, and how occupied, are considerations to
be taken into view. And with refj>e£l tegood|,
theii'tendnncy, whether from their nature, or
from the manner in which they are exposed, ether
to commence or to increase an accidental lire, and
their liability in such state to receive damage by
wet, or by sudden andhally removal, or to be fro
len in time of confuficn and hurry, are all cir
cumstances of weight ; and the premiums n.ufl be (
proportioned accordingly.
111. The following conditiont are to be under
ftoed by the parties.
ift. The Inftirance is not binding till the ftipu
latedjiremiura be paid ; but it shall be deemed ef
feclual from the time cf such payment and accep
tance thereof, whether the poiicy be immediately
ftgned or not.
2d. lnfurances rcay be renewed at the expira
tion of the term of the policy, without further ex
perfes than the payment of thu premium of the re
newed term, the circumstances continuing the sam«
as they were anderftood by the Insurers at the time
the former insurance was mads ; but the payment
of the premium is clTential to such renewal ; and
if the party insured fuffers any time to elapse after
the expiration o( the former insurance, before he
pays a premium for the renewal, he is not insured
during such time ; nor can the insurance be renew
ed an the former policy but by computing the
commencement of the renewal fri.ni the expiration
of the former Infuranr.e. The lubjeil of insur
ance may nevertheless be open to treaty for a new
insurance.
3d- If ary other insurance bemadeon the fame
property ; it must be made known at the time of
application, otherwif's the policy made on such ap
plication will be void.
4th Goods held in trufl, or nn consignment
raay be insured as such in a fenarate policy; but
they are not to be considered as infuied stherwife.
5 th. This comjwny will not be liable or accoun
table for any loss or damagf occasioned by any for
eign invasion, or by any military or uf«rped force,
or by peafon of any civil commotion ; or occasion
ed by gunpowder, aquafortis or other thing cf the
likekind kept in the building, or amongtt the pro
perty iul'ured.
6th. Bills of Exchange, Bonds »nd other Secu
rities, Title Desds, Money, Bank and other pro
miffery Notes, are not included in any insurance ;
nor are paintings, -iledal-, jewels, gems, antique
curiosities, or mirrors exceeding the value of twen
ty-five dollars each, to be considered as insured un
less particularly mentioned and by special agree
ment.
7th. No insurance will be made for a ftiorter
term than one year, nor for a longer term than fe
ve.ll years. Persons choosing to insure for seven
years (hall be allowed one year's premium by way
of difeount: Oce third of a years premium (hall
be abated in like manner on an insurance for
tkrec year?.
Bth. I.olTet sustained by fire en property injured,
shall be paid in thirty days after due prouf and li
quidation thereof, without dedijet ion.
A defciiption of the property to be infurod will
be expefted with each application, to be made by
a master carpenter and signed by him, as well as
by the owner cf the building 01 applicant for in
surance, and attested before a Notary or principal
Magistrate, who will certily his knowledge of the
parties, and their credibility.
With refpeil. to Houses and other Buildings,
ift. The site and poGtkn ; delcribing the
street or road on or near which the building
stands ; its contiguity to water, and other cir
cumitaoces relative to the extinguilhment of fire
