Capital s2so,ooo—Charter Perpetual. Make In
surance on Lives at their Office, in l'hiladelpha,
and at their Agencies throughout the States : at the
lowest rates of premium. Perions should insure
their lives, and do so withou - t delay, whilst they
are healthy and fit subjects to be insured.
In this Office there are advantages. greater than
have ever yet been derived from the system of Life
Assurance; which reason and experience convince
the Trustees may with safety be offered to the
public. It will be found, on inquiry, that most
offices have in the outset professed to act on some
new principle; or to offer to assurers some one
particular benefit not to be obtained from other
societies. But policies are effected under various
circumstances, and with widely different objects,
and what may facilitate the views of one man, af
fords no accommodation to another. It appears,
therefore, to the Trustees of the Equitable, that
the greatest good will be effected by that office,
which allows.such reasonable advantages to every
assurer, as at the time of completing his Policy, he
considers to be suitable to his particular case. On
this principle they act, and a few instances will
suffice to show the benefits derivable from its
adoption—the greatest good of fhb greatest number.
No policy will be disputed, unless under an act
of fraud by the assured, and after the same shall
have been declared by referees of undoubted char
acter. In ease of error, either as to age, or in the
form of policy, or the answers of referees, such
errors, unless wilful and fraudulent, will not be
deemed to vitiate the policy.
The travelling leave is extensive and liberal.
Persons insured for life have liberty to pass to and
from the States of Virginia and Kentucky, and west
of the river Mississippi, between the rat day of
November and the first day of July following. And
to pass from any place or port within the British
North American Colonies, or United States north
of thirty-four 'degrees north latitude, without pay
ing an extra premium. They are allowed to cross
the Atlantic in first class steamers during May,
June, July, August and September, free of charge;
during remaining months of the year, 25 cents on
each $lOO insured. •
The age of the assured will be admitted on the
policy. If the insured die in a duel, by his own
hands, or under sentence of the law, such death
will not invalidate the policy, except so far as it
was the property of the deceased.
Thirty days allowed after each annual payment
becomes due, and fifteen days atter each quarterly
and half yearly premium becomes due, without for
feiture of policy. Premiums or lapsed, policies
may be renewed at any time within six months on
the production of satisfactory evidence as to the
health of the insured.
When a party effects a policy upon the life of
another, the Company will be satisfied if the party
had, at the time, a bona fide interest in the life of
the assured. The policy may be assigned. to whom
soever the assured pleases, without the knowleage
or assent of the Company (there being no clause in
the Equitable policies usual in the policies of Mo
t-UAL Companies, claiming a right to be notified of
an assignment and their approval obtained) so long
as the assignment or transfer of a policy in the
Equitable is a legal act, and the party who claims
can give a legal discharge, the amount is paid by
the Company.
The extraordinary advantage afforded by means
of the Half Credit system, in not requiring, under
any circumstances, an outlay of a larger sum of
money than is absolutely necessary to secure the
amount insured, is peculiarly applicable to the
CREDITOR desirous of possessing a policy on the life
Ills DEBTOR. If the debt is paid off during these
five years, he.can discontinue the assurance alto
gether, having secured the amount, in the event of
the debtor's death previously, at a lessexpense than
would in any mutual office be charged for assuring
the life for seven years. If the debt is NOT PAID he
would be enabled to continue the assurance for the
ratainder of the debtor's life, whatever might then
be his state of, health. Attention is particulary re
quested to the

The assured has to pay the premium in all caves
in advance, and lIAS NO LIABILITY of any kind,
sort or description. A deferred note is not neces
sary to pet feet any operation, and none will be
taken by the Company.
Persons insuring should bear in mind that a pro
missory note given to a MUTUAL OFFICE at COM
pound interest, soon amounts to more than the sum
assured. 'Thus, $lOO per annum for 20 years at 6
par cant., would cause a DEDUCTION 11.oin the sum
assured of THREE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND
SEVENTY-FIGHT DOLLARS AND MTV-FIVE CENTS.
The premiums of Mutual. Assurance Companies
being, us they profess, (though the Mutual offices
"do somehow" advertise guarantee capitals) free
from the burdens of dividends to shareholders,
should be very Much lower, than those of stock
companies; YET THE EQUITABLE IS LOWER By SIX
TEEN PER CENT. THAN ANY MUTUAL OFFICE, and
at the SAME RATES or PREMIUM charged by the
"New York Life," "The New York Mutual,"
"Albion," " Worcester Mutual," "Connecticut
Mutual," "Pennsylvania," "Girard," "Penn,"
"New England," "Hartford," " Baltimore Mu
tual," "Boston Mutual," &c., &c., &c., in the

The assured being thus entirely relieved of pay
ments (if he is' under 35 years of age) before he has
passed the prime of life, and that for the same pre
mium charged by the Mutual Offices.
The premiums charged by the MUTUAL OFFICES
are all on the highest scale, (and by their own ad
vertisements) much beyond what is requisite for the
puipose of their business.
"'Their "profits" can only be realized, if ever
realized at all, after a lapse of twenty years. The
word Profits, therefore, is an abuse of the term, A
WHOLLY CONTINGENT AND REMOTE PROMISE,' for
it id self-evident, and cannot for a moment be ques
tioned, they must suffer loss by every insurer who.
dies before the amount paid by him in premiums,
with the accumulated interest, shall be equal to
the amount of his policy—nevertheless, in the Mu
tual Offices the "profits" (???) are to be shared in
by the representative, should the insured die IM
MEDIATELY after one or two payments.
By the.diminution of the premiums in the Equi
table,THE GREATEST PRESENT BENEFIT IS SECURED
to al persons assured by this company; whilst
those who wish to participate in the profits can do
so, by the purchase of the reserved shares, (first
instalment, 10 dollars) which at all times afford a
good and really profitable investment for capital,
beside a vote for each share. This action the
Trustees conceive must commend itself to the judg
ment of every unbiassed inquirer, being based on the
broad principle of equity; and securing to all the
members, the advantages to which they are justly
entitled by their actual payments; without opera
ting to the peculiar benefit of old standing members,
or placing recent entrants at a disadvantage—a
combination presented by no other office than the
Equitable Life Insurance Company.
THE ACTUAL MONEY Bonus given by the Equi
table, saved, is upwards of 15 per cent., at the time
of effecting the insurance; on IN ACCORDANCE with
the SCRIP BONUS OF A MUTUAL OFFICE; THE SAVING
IS EQUAL TO TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY PElt CENT.
PROFIT SCRIP(?) 04r pamphlets, tables of rates,
lists of agents, obtained• at the office, 74 Walnut
Street, or from the agents throughout the United
States..

made to complete from 8 to 18 acres per day.
4th, The grain is not so liable to be thrown out
by frost.
sth, It stands stronger and firmer, grows:more
rapidly, is not so liable to be injured by the rust,
and overcomes and outgrows the action of the fly.
6th, Where these machines have been used, the
saving of seed and increase of product amounted
to from 10 to 25 per cent.
The great characteristics of this machine, over
all others of the kind, are its simplicity, durability,
and economy, and the facility and certainty with
which it can be set or altered, by a regulated index
and, gauge, to drill or plant any given quantity of
per acre at any required depth.
This machine is made with moveable teeth at
present, to suit the unevenness of the ground. It
will answer alike for rough and smooth land.

• Nothing
A PPEARS at first sight so insurmountable a bar
rier lo the intercourse of nations as the ocean
—but Science has converted it into the most ex
peditious means by which they may supply their
mutual wants. \Nothing is so violent as steam, or
so destructive misfire—yet art has made them sub
servient to the necessities, the comforts, and even
the elegancies of life, What tio hard, so cold, and
so insensible as Marble I yet the Sculptor can
warm it into life and hid it express the tenderest
emotions.. How variable is color? how swift is
light? and how empty is shadel—but the pencil of
a Raphael can give these fleeting things both a body
and a soul, and can confer upon them an imperish
able vigor,—a beauty that increases with age, and l i
which must continue to captivate generations.
How is it that Erben, at the Sign of the Striped
Coat can have his Clothing made and trimmed so
much better than the other Lancaster, tailors and
yet sell far cheaper than the rest of the trade! His
clothing ne.ver rips, it is made of gooerriaterial,
and the fit of his garments can't be excelled, and
the price this Spring is almost nothing. Hew can
he afford to sell so low, how does he do it? These
are questions often asked, and no doubt it seems
wonderful, especially to the high price tailors,--,
but, impossible as it may appear, he has neverthe-\
less succeeded in producing good Clothing cheaper
than ever before known in Lancaster, in fact quite
a revolution in prices; and so it should be. The
public good demands still farther reform. No
more dull plodding in the beaten track. 'This is
an age of progress. Innovation is the order of the
day, and the subscriber believing that the Art of
Clothing the human form was yet in its infancy
and susceptible of great improvement, has devoted
his entire energies to its perfection with a view to
the reduction of prices, so as to bring a fine suit of
Clothes within the reach of all, and can confident
ly recommend the 44 SIGN OF THE STRIPED
COAT" as the cheapest Clothing Store in the
World.
