Fire Insurawtce.
S E refer our readers to the annual statfinent of
y w the -litna Insurance Company, of Hartford,
which will be found in another column. This suc
cessful institution was inoorporated by the Legislature
of (,'onnecticut in 181'J, with a perpetual charter. Its
capital is ^500,000, and its accumulations exceed
:j:8(m),000 more, making its entire assets over $1,300,-
tiuo, invested as detailed in the statement referred to
Tli*-se results indicate that during the period of near-
y forty years since its organizatiin, (without a single
ehange of its chief officer,) its business has been con-
durteil with judgment and prudence. It has been
thus far successful in an eminent degree, discharging,
as we are informed, all its obligations by the payment
of about ten million dollars for losses, without asking a
lay’s delay in any instance. It has had but little lit
igation, notwithstanding the immense number of trans
actions made. In onler to attain as much certainly as
possible in such a business as insurance, it has been
the practice of the Conipanj', for several years, at
great labor, carefully to classify and arrange their
risks into about fifty distinct classes, so as to ascertain
tlie amount insured on each class, tlie amount of
premiums received tliereon, and the amount of
losses upon each. This classification, extending
over a long period, and covering property to a very
large amount, furnishes reliable data, and pre
sents a sound, substantial basis of actual experience,
upon which to conduct its business. Insurance is not
a matter of luck or chance, as many suppose; its ha
zards are ascertainable, and its principles are capaMe
of being reduced to a system, the practical working
and results of which are as certain as that of any other
business. The .Etna Company, by adhering rigidly
to its system, and placing its business upon a healthy
basis, has obtained the confidence of the community
to an extent surpassed by no other Company in the U.
States, and has increased its business and its income
from year to year with a steady growth. One great
source of its security is the wide distribution^ of its
risks—a policy which it pursues with great gtriotness
—limiting the amount to be covered in each locality.
By this course it has passed, with comparative impu
nity, through some of the most sweeping and destruc
tive fires, which have sw.allowed up other companies
less cautious in their business. It is a system like
this, based upon experience, which gives stability and
soundness to a company, and to the assured confidence
and security.—Baltimore Patriot.
