■ ■TE refer our readers to the annual statement of
T* the .litna Insurance Company, of Hartford,
which will be found in another column. This success
ful institution was incorporated by the Legislature of
Connecticut in 1819, with a perpetual charter. Its
capital is ii500,000, and its accumulations exceed
■v^mi.uGO more, making its entire asset^ «ver $300,-
Oi'ii, invested as detailed in the statement referred to.
These results indicate that during the period of nearly
forty years since its onjaniiation, (without a single
change of its chief officer,) its business has been con-
Jucted with j idgment 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 dollar* for losses, without asking a
Jay's delay in any instance. It has had but little Ut-
igation, notwithstanding the immense number of trans
actions made. In order to attain as much cerUiiuty as
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 then-
risks into about fifty distinct classes, so as to ascertain
the amount insured on each class, the amount of pre
miums received thereon, and the amount of losses up
on each. This classification, extending 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
'■usiness. Insurance is not a matter of luck or chance,
an many suppose; its hazards are ascertainable, and
its principles capable 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 busi
ness upon a healthy basis, has obtained the confidence
,f the community to an extent surpassed by no other
Company in the U. States, and has increased its busi
ness 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 strictness—limiting the amount to be cov
ered in each locality. By this course it has passed,
with comparative impunity, through some of the most
sweeping and destructive fires, which have swallowed 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 as-
iured confidence and security.—Baltimore I’atriot.
