UTE refer our readers to the annual statement of
the /Ktna Insurance Company, of Hartford,
which will be found in another column. This success
ful institution was incorporated bj’ the Legislature of
Connecticut in 1S1'.*, with a perpetual charter. Its
capital is >*!500.0'^0, and its accumulations exceed
$'00,0()0 more, making its entire assets ever $800,-
000, invested as detailed in the statement referreil to.
Thesp results in licate that during the period of nearly
forty years since its organization, (without a sinele
change of its chief (>fTicer,) its bu.siness has been con-
dn.?ted with judgment and prudence. It bus been
thus far successtul in an eminent degree, discharging,
as we are inform'd. all its obligations by the payment
of ribout t>'n mi/lwn dollars for losses, without asking a
day’s del;iy in any iris'anee. If lias had htit little lit
igation, notwithstanding the immens" nutnber of trans
actions niatle In order to attain as much certainty as
li ’ssible in such a business as insurance, it has been
the practice of the •'ompany. tor several years, at
irre-it lahor, carefully t • classify and arrange their
risks into about fi.'ty distinct classes, so as to ascertain
tlic iiinoiint insured on each class, the amount of pre
miums receivtfii thereon. an>t the amount of losses up
on each. This classification, extendiug over a long
period,and covering property to a very large amount.fur
nishes reliable data, and presents 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 hazards are ascertiinable, and
its principles eap ibh' of being redui’Pdto a sj’.'tem, the
practical wiirkiiig and results ot' which are as certain
as that of anv other business 'I'ne /Etna Company,
In’ adliering rigidly to its svstem. and placing its busi
ness upon a healthy liasis, has obtained tbc confidence
of the community to an extent surpasseil by no other
Company in the U. States, and has increased its busi
ness and its income from j'e.ir to j’eur with a steady
growth. One grea* s.-urce ot its security is the wide
distiibutiou of its risks—a policy which it j.ursuea
with preit strictness—limiting the nmoont to be cov
ered in each locality. l!y this course it !ias parsed,
with comparative impunity, through some of the most
sweeping atil ilestructive tires, whiidi have swa'dowed up
other companies less cautious in their business. It is
a system like tliis, based upon experience, which gives
stability and suiiadiiessto a company, and to the as
sured confidence and security.—Baltimore Patriot.
