PROPOSALS, J BY THI ( Insurance Company of North America. For Insurvnce againti Fill, on Dwslling- Houses, W«e-Hoafcs, and other Buildings (and on OoodS ton-tamed infuch Buildings) ditlant from i Philadelphia, in the United States. "I. Common tufurancef, on hazards of the firft clal's, will be undertaken at a premium of ahaut halt per cent, per annum. For extra hazardous a larger premium will be required, which ■trill vaiy according to circunftances, fcldom ex ceeding one per cent, per annum ; but in Come in stances, where the property insured is not only in itfelf extra hazardous, but rendered ftiil more so by, the vicinity of extra hazardous buildings and , occupations, the premium demanded will be raised according to circumftar.ces. Hnufes and Ware-Houses, the walls and peti tions of which are wholly «f (tone or brick, well eonftrudled, so as to b* guarded as well as may be a jiinff fir« from within, and free from extra ha zardous buildings and occcupationsi in their neigh borhood, will be deemed hazardous of the firft < Slals, and may be infnred to theirfull value. Also Goods and Merchandize, not of an extra hazardous kind, in calks, bales, or packages, de politcd in such buildings, to an amount not ex caeding 4000 dollars; bHt if more than thisfum is required to be insured in one tenement, an addi; tkmal premium will be required, in proportion to cirtumftances. ( 11. Insurances will also be made on buildings and goods extra hazardous, at premiums proportioned to the risque. But it is Rot easy to arrange these tiiidei particular heads or classes, so as to describe 1 each with the neceflary accuracy. Each cafe must therefore be decided upon according to the circum- b stances attending it ; and these circumftanccs wili, I in general, appear from the description actompa uying the application. Buildings partly conftruiled of brick or stone, r are preferable to those wholly wooden. And in r both cases, the stile of building, how th«y are oc espied, how they are Ctuited, the neighboring "V buildings, and how occupied, are confi lcrations to 3 be taken into view. And with refpeft te goods, n their tendency, whether from their nature, of from the manner in which they are exposed, either to commence or to increase an accidents I fire. a«d their liability in such state to receive damage by ' wet, or i-y sudden and hasty rcmcwal, or to be fto- 9 leu u tir.-..' of confufion and hurry, are all cir- * camfi.i: wright; and the premiums muil be P proportioned accordingly. 111.

Insurances may be renewed at the expira- a . tion of the term of the policy, without further ex pense« than the paymert of ths premium of the re newed term, the circumftaucescontinuing the fame y as they were nnderftood by the Insurers at the time j thelormar insurance was made ; but the payment of the premium is essential te such renewal; and if the party insured fuffers any time to elapse after the expiration of the former insurance, before he '' pays a premium for the renewal, he is not insured ' J during such time ; nor can the inlurancc be renew- e> ed en the former policy but by computing the A commencement of the renewal from the expiration 4 of the former insurance.
