• :• *1 r.srars^f.. i.x-j Proposals, BY the Insurance Company of North America. For Insurance agaiwlt Fire, on Dwelling- Houfcs, and other Buildings (and on Goods contained in such Buildings) diftantfrom Philadelphia, in the United States. I. Common lufurance?, on hazards of the firft class, will be undertaken at a premium of about hah per cent, per annum. For extra hazardous rifques a larger premium will be required, which will vary according to circntiftances, feidoai ex ceeding one per cent, per annum ; bHt in some in ftanees, where the property, insured is not only in itfdf extra hazardous, but rendered still morefo by the vicinity of extra hazardous buildings and occupations, the premium demanded will be raised according to circumstances. Houses and Ware-Hoiifes, the walls and parti tions of which are wholly of done qr brick, well conftruded, so as to b? guarded as well as may be against fires from within, and free from extra ha zardous buildings and occcupations in their neigh borhood, wili be deemed hazardous of the firft class, and may be insured to their full value. Also Goofis and Merchandize, not of an extra hazardous kind, in calks, bales, or packages, de pofitcd in fnch buildings* to an amount not ex ceeding 4000 dollars; but if more than thisfum is required' to be insured in one tenement, an tional premium will be required, in proportion to circumstances. 11. Insurances willalfo be made on buildings and goods extra hazardous, at premiums proportioned to thu risque. But it is not easy to arrange these under particular head* or cla(Tes, so as to describe each with ths necessary accuracy. Each cafe must therefore be decided upon according to the circum stances attending it ; and these circumstances wili, in general, appear from the description accompa nying the application. Buildings partly conftru&cd of brick or stone, are preferable to those wholly wooder. And in both cases, the stile of buiHing, how they are oc cupied, how they are situated, the neighboring buildings, and how occupied, are considerations to be taken into view. And with refpeik to goods, their tendency, whether from their nature, or from the manner in which th«y are exposed, either to commence or to increase an accidental fire, a»d their liability in such Hate to receive damage by , wet, or by sudden and hasty removal, ortftbe sto len in time of confufion and hurry, are all cir cumstances of weight; and the premiums must be proportioned accordingly. 111. The following con&tiont are to be under stood by the parties . 1 ft. The Insurance is not binding till the stipu lated premium be paid ; but it lhall be deemed ef fectual from the time of such payment and accep tance thereof, whether the policy be immediately signed or not. 2d. Insurances may be renewed at the expira tion of the term of the policy, without further ex penfe*than the payment of the premium of the re newed term, the circumftancescontinuing the fame a? they were understood by the Insurers at the time the former insurance was made ; but the payme-nt of the premium is eflTential to such renewal; and if the party insured fuffers any time to elapse after v the expiration of the former insurance, before he pays a premium for the renewal, he is not insured during fucn t-ime ; nor can the insurance be renew ed on the former policy but by computing the commencement of the renewal from the expiration ©f the former insurance. The (übjedi of insur ance may ne*erthelcfs be open to treaty for a new insurance. 3d. If any other insurance be made on the fame property ; it must be made known at the time of application, otherwise the policy made on such ap plication will be void- 4th Goods held in trust, or on consignment, may be infur«d as such in a separate policy; but they are not t©be considered as infuredetherv^fe. sth. This company will not be liable or accoun table for any lots or damage occafioMed by any for eign uivafion, or by amy miliwry or usurped foree or by peafon of any civil commotion ; or occasion, «d by gunpowder, aquafortis or other thing of th likekind kept in the building, or amongst the pro perty insured. 6th. Bills of Exchange, Bonds and other Secu rities, Title Deeds, Money, Bank and other pro niiifory Notes, are not included in any infarance ; nor are paintings, Tiedalc, jewels, gems, antique ouriofities, or mirrors exceeding the valae of twen ty-five dollars each, to be considered as insured une less particularly mentioned aad by special agree ment. 7th. No insurance will be made for a fliorter term than one year, nor for a longar term than se ven years. Persons choosing to infare for seven years (hall b eallewed one year's premium by way of difeount: One third of a yearspremium fcall' be abated in like manner on an insurance for three years. Bth, Losses sustained by fire en proj: erty injured, (hall be paid in thirty days after due proof and li quidation thereof, without dedu<sUon. A description of the property to be inftirod will be expected with each application, to be made by a matter carpenter and signed by him, as well as by the owner of the building ot applicant for in surance, and attefled before a Notary or principal Magistrate, who will certify his knowledge of the parties and their credibility.
