T. Common lufurance*, on hazards of the firft
clal's, will he under: iken at a premium of ahout
hall per cent, per annum. For extra hazardous
rifques a larger will be required, which
will vaiy according to circunftances, seldom ex
ceeding one pet cent, per annum ; bat in forne in
tlances. where the property infurcd is not only in
itfell" extra hazardous, but rendered still more so
by the vicinity* of extra hazardous buildings and
occupations, the premium demanded will be raised
according to circumstances.
Houses and Ware-Houses, the walls and prrti
iions of whioh are wholly of stone or brick, well
conftru&ed, so as to b? guarded as well as may be
againO fires from within, and tree from extra ha
zardous buildiWs and occcupations inth>-ir neigh
borhood, will be deemed hazardous of the firft
class, and may be infurcd to their full value.
Also Goods and Merchandize, not o' an extra
hazardous kind, in calks, bales, or packages, de-
Vofitqd in such buildings, to an amount not ex
ceeding 4000 dollars ; but if more than thisfum
is required to be insured in one tenement, an addf=
tionai premium will be .required, in proportion to
Circumstances.
11. Insurances will also be made on buildings and
goods extra hazardous, at premiums proportioned
to thd risque. But it is wot easy to arrange these
under particular heads or clalTes, so as to describe
caeh with the neccffary accuracy. Each cafe must
therefore be decided upon accordingto the circum
llances attending it ; and these circumstances wili,
in general, appear from the description accompa
nying the application.
3uildings partly conflrtl&ed of brick or flone,
are preferable to those wholly wooden. And in
both cases, the stile of building, how they are oc
cupied, how they are situated, the neighboring
buildings, and how occupied, are considerations to
be taken into view. And with refpeit to goods,
tli\cir tendancy, whether from their nature, or
from the manner in which they are exposed, either
to commence or to increase an accidents'fire, awd
their liability in such state to receive damage by
wet, or by sudden andhafty removal, or to be sto
len in time of confufion and hurry, are all cir
cumstances of weight; and the premiums must be
proportioned accordingly.
111. The following conditiont are to be under
flood i.y the parties .
ift. The Insurance is not binding till the stipu
lated premium be paid ; biit it shall 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
penses than the payment of the premium of the re
newed term, the circumstances continuing the fame
M they were wnderflood by the Insurers at the time
the former insurance was made ; but the payment
of the premium is eflential to such renewal ; and
if the party insured fuffers any time to elapse after
the expiration of the former insurance, before he
pays a premium fur the renewal, he is not insured
during such tine ; nor can the insurance be renew
ed on the former policy but by computing the
commencement of the renewal from the expiration
of the former infuranr.c. The fubjeil of insur
ance may nensrtheiefs open to treaty for a new
ini'unince
;id- If tiny other infumice be madeon the fame
•pplicatioH, othervvife the policy made on i'uch ap
plication will be void.
}thi Goods h*ld in trull, or on confignnient,
may be insured as such in a l'eparate policy; but
they are not t# be considered as infuied atherwufe.
sth. 'i'his compti-ny will not be liable or accoun
table fpr any loss or damage occasioned by any tor
efin invasion, orbyaoy military or usurped force
ed by teafon of any civil commotion ; or occalion,
or by gunpowder, aquafortis or other thing of tk
hke kind kept in the building, or amonglt the pro
perty itfOfcd.
6th. Bills of Exchange, Bonds and other Secu
rities, Title Deeds, Money, Bank and other pro
miifory Notes, are not included in any insurance ;
rior are paintings, medals, jewels, gems, antique
oirriofities, or mirrors exceeding the value ot twen
ty-iive dollars each, to be considered as insured une
Ufs parciculariy mentioned and by special agree
■ mcnt.
;th. No insurance will be made for a shorter
terra than one year, nor for a longer term than fe
vew years. Persons choosing to infare for seven
■yt.r> (hall bcallowed one year's premium by way
(if dileount: One third of a yearspremium shall
be abated 111 like manner on an insurance for
threi: years.
