WE refer our readers to the annual statement of the .^tna Insurance Company, of Hartford which will be found in another column. Thig guc! cessful institution was incorporated by the Legislature of Connecticut in 1819, with a perpetual charter, hg capital is $500,000, and its accumulations excoej $800,000 more, making its entire assets over 1>1,300 000, invested as detailed in the statement referred to These results indicate that during the period of ne»r- ly forty years since its orgnnization, (without a sinele change of its chief otficer,) its business has been con ducted with judgment and prudence. It has heec thus far successful in an eminent degree, discharging as we are informed, all its obligations by the payment of about ten million dfilLars for losses, without asking a day’s delay in any instance. It has had but little lit igation, notwithstanding the immense number of traus actions made. In order to attain as much ctrtamty da possible in such a business as insurance, it has been the practice of the Company, for several years at great labor, carefully to classify and arrange their risks into about fifty distinct classes, so as to ascertain the amount insured on each class, the amount of premiums received thereon, and the amount of losses upon each. This classification, extenflin? ovT^r 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 l a lards are ascertainable, and its principles are capab! of being reduced to a system, the practical working and results of which are as certain as that of anv other business. The .-Etna Company, by a(lhering'rigi,|)v to its system, aud placing its business upon a health’v basis, has obtained the coufidence of the cotmunnit'y to an extent surpassed by uo other Company in ihe I States, and has increased its business and its income from year to year with a steady growth. One greu source of its security is the wide distribution of its risks—a policy which it pursues with great strictness —limiting the amount to be covered in each locality By this course it ha.« passed, with comparative impu nity, through some of the most sweeping an.l destruc tive fires, which h ive swallowed up other cotup:mies less cautious in their business. It is a system like this, based upon experience, which gives stuhilitv ami soundness to a company, and to the assured contiJence and security.—Baltimore Patriot. \ ITi\i li\.SfRl\CE H.\RTFORI), CO.N.N.
