For Insdramci against Fia», on Dwelling- 1 f Houses, Ware-Hcufcs, and other Buildings (and • " on Goods contained in such Buildings) difiant from j P Philadelphia, ill the United States. I 11 d I. Common lufurance*, on hazards of the firft 1 ( class, will be undertaken at a premium of ahout p hali per cent. per annum. For'extra hazardous ' t rifq»es a larger prrrrinm will be required, which o will vaiy according to circunftances, fcidom ex- j d teeding one per cent, per annum ; but in some i-n- c fiances, where the property insured is not only in itfelf extra hazardous, but rendered still more so t by the vicinity of extra hazardous buildings and j occupations, the premium demanded be railed f according to rircumftanc&s. Houses and Ware-Hc,ufes, the vails and pcrti- t tions of which arc wholly »f ft one or brick, well conftru&ed, so as t» be guarded as well as may be against fires from within, and tree from extra ha zardous buildings and occupations in their neigh- borhood, will be deemed hazardous of the firft class, and may be insured to their full value. Also Good* and Merchandize, not o! an extra _ hj7n r dcus kind, in calks, bales, or packages, 4e- Ktpofitcd in such buildings, to an ameunt not ex ceeding 4000 dollars ; bat if more than thisfum 1 ■Required to be insured in one tenement, an sjdic TWR<wal premium will be required, in proportion to t circumllances. 11. Insurances will also be made on buildings and J good* extra hazardous, at premiums proportioned ( to thri risque. But it is not e:.fy to arrange these ( under particular heads cr classes, so as to describe f each with the necessary accuracy. Bach cat- niuft therefore be decided upop according to thecireum- r fiances a tending it ; and these circumstances wili, a in general, appear from the description accotnpa- f uymg t'eapplication. a Buildings partly conftrucled of brick or stone, f are preferable to thofo wholly wooden. And in both cases, the stile of buiWin~, how they are oc- i cupied, how they are fitunted, the neighboring a buildings, and how occupied, arc considerations to a be taken into view. And with refpeA t# goods, - their tendency, whether from their nature, or r from the rnanoer in which they are exposed, c ther t to commence or to increase an accidental fire, and i tlicir liability in such state to receive damage by i wet, or by sudden and hasty removal, or to be fto- 1 len iu time of confufion and hufry, are all cir- c cumft&nces of weight; and the premiums mutt be 1 proportioned accordingly. i HI. The fallowing conditiont are to be under- , flood hy the parlies. ' t :f:. The Insurance is not binding till the ftipu latsjpremium belaid ; but it (hall be deemed ef- i fedlual from the time of such payment and accep- 1 '.••dice thereof, whether the policy be immediately c finned or not. ad. Infurincts may be renewed at the expira- < tion of the term of the policy, without further ex- 1 petlfes than the payment of the premium of the re newed term, the circumstances continuing the fame t as they were underilood by the Infurtrs at the time J the former insurance was made ; but the payment c of the premium is eflential to such renewal; and I it the party insured fuffers any time to elapfc after j the expiration ef the former insurance, before he pays a premium for the renewal, he is not insured j during such time ; nor can the insurance be renew- c eel on the former policy but by computing the t conimtr.ceir.ent of the renewal from the expiration c of the former insurance. The lubjedl of ihfur- j a'ice may nc'.erthclcls be open to treaty for a new ( insurance. \ jd. If spy other insurance he made on the fame 1 property ; itmuft be made known at the time of ( application, otherwise the policy made on such ap plication will be void. i jth Goods held in trust, or on consignment, i ray be insured as such in a separate policy; but t th\> are not Wbe'cohljderefi Ss irifufed vtheraafe. j Jth, This cotnpany will not liahiu or aeceun- < tabk'for any loss or damage occafiorvrd by any for- r invafion, or ty any military or usurped force or hy pc.,fon of any ci\il commotion ; oroccafion, t eel. by gunpowder, aquafortis dr other thing of th» c like kind kept in the building, or amonglt the pro perty insured. t fcln. Bills of Exchange, Bonds and other Secu rities Title Deads, Money. Bank and other pro- c mifiory Notes, are not included in any insurance ; f nor are paißtings, medals, jewels, gems, antique curio'itios, or mirrors exceeding the value of twen ty-live dollars-each, to be considered as insured une i less particularly mentioned and by special agree ment. Jsh. No insurance will be made foraftorter term than one year, nor for a longer term than fe- ~ yeii years. Persons chooling to insure fbr seven years fnall b eallowed one year's premium by way of difeount: One third of a years premium fliall be abated in like manner on an insurance for tfcree years. Bth.
