FOR

MEETING.

Thomas Ford, Rawstorne-st., Clerkenwell, gentleman, July 4 at 11, Court-house, Portugal-st., Lincoln's-inn-fields, pr. d. [We have been obliged to omit some of the Country Insolvents, they will be given in our next number.]

55, Chancery-lane, 9th April, 1842.

OR the convenience of persons in the Western and Central Districts of London, and particularly of Gentlemen connected with the Law, THE LONDON, EDINBUrgh, and DubLIN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY have opened a Branch Office at 55, Chancery-lane, where Prospectusses, Forms of Proposals, and every other information connected with the business of the Company, may be procured; and where Examinations of Parties whose Lives are proposed for Assurance may be taken, and Policies effected, as at the Chief Office of the Company, in Charlotte-row, Mansion-house.

Your attention is solicited to some of the distinguishing features of this Company, which have been introduced after mature deliberation, and which will be most conveniently pointed out by referring to Policies, as Money Transaction and Family Provision Policies.

MONEY TRANSACTION POLICIES.-Your professional experience and acquaintance with the records of the Courts of Law and Equity, must have convinced you that considerable changes were required in the practice and rules of Life Offices, to render this class of Policies valid and unimpeachable documents of security, which no unforseen circumstances or future accidents could invalidate. This Company has endeavoured, and they think successfully, to render their Policies as indefeasible and negotiable securities as is possible, consistently with a due regard to the safety of the contracting parties; and to effect this object the Company has introduced the following clause into their Deed of Settlement :—

CLAUSE 78.-"That every Policy issued by the Company shall be indefeasible and indisputable, and the fact of the issuing of the same shall be conclusive evidence of its validity; and it shall not be lawful for the Company to delay payment of the money assured thereby, on the ground of any error, mistake or omission, however important, made by or on the part of the person or persons effecting the same; and that, on the contrary, the amount receivable under the same shall be paid at the time stipulated by the Policy, to the person entitled thereto, as if no such error, mistake or omission had been made or discatered, unless the Policy shall have been obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation."

FAMILY PROVISION POLICIES.-In the well-founded belief that Life Assurance business is profitable, persons making provisions for their families, and contemplating a long duration of time between the date of the Policy and the claim to arise under it, generally prefer Assurances which may carry with them a right to participate in the profits to be realized by the Company during the currency of their Policies. By the Deed of Constitution of this Company, the participating Assured are entitled to the WHOLE OF THE MUTUAL PROFITS, as if they had been Assured in a purely Mutual Society; and they have, at the same time, the security not only of the Funds of the Company, arising from the accumulated premiums, but also the proprietary funds and subscribed Capital of the Company. To the Shareholders are allotted only those profits which are realized by the investment of their own paid capital, and from the excess of the premiums derived from the Non-participating Assurances. This mode of Division of Profits is peculiar to this Company.

In order to provide against the defeat of a Policy in the hands of a CREDITOR, by the DEBTOR, whose Life is Assured leaving the country, and going beyond the prescribed limits, the Company grant WHOLE WORLD POLICIES, whereby, on condition of receiving an extra premium, varying in amount according to the circumstances of the case, but fixed and determined at the time of issuing the Policy, the debtor, on whose Life an Assurance has been effected, is entitled to go to or reside in any part of the world, without invalidating the Assurance.

To enable a party to effect an Assurance at the LEAST POSSIBLE EXPENSE, and to entitle him to discontinue it at a less sacrifice than by any other plan, a seven years' Half-premium system has been introduced; and, upon comparing the following scale with any other which has been devised for reducing present payments, it will be seen how much more economically a loan transaction can be fortified by this kind of Policy than by any other. The Half-premium system possesses a further advantage over temporary Assurances, or those for a Term of Years, from the Assured having the option of continuing for Life the Policy which he may have procured for a mere temporary purpose.

[merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small]

THE COMMISSION allowed to Attornies is 101. per cent. upon the first, and 57. per cent. upon all future premiums; and the Commission continues to be payable to the Attorney, who completed the Assurance with the Company, although the future premiums may be paid by others.

The usual weekly Board day is Thursday, but Policies may be obtained any day betwixt the hours of 10 and 5.

The following are the Names of the Gentlemen who favour THE JURIST with Reports of Cases argued and decided in the several Courts of Law and Equity:—

Affecting as it does property of immense extent, and in a way which, however consistent it may be with authority and legal reasoning, is not very consistent with the modern principles of trade, it is not indeed likely that the general principle laid down in the case of The Queen v. The South-Western Railway Company will be acquiesced in without some further judicial investigation. And we therefore venture to offer some comments upon it, notwithstanding the weight unquestionably due to it as the decision of the whole court, in a case fully argued by some of the most able men at the bar.

A REPORT has just been published by one of the It is stated in the preface to the report of The Queen learned reporters in the Court of Queen's Bench, of the V. The South-Western Railway Company, that it is unvery important decision in "The Queen v. The South-derstood the Company would gladly take the opinion Western Railway Company*." The question in dispute of a Court of Error upon the decision; but that, from was the mode of assessing to the poor-rate a Railway the mode in which the question arose, (a case from the Company, in occupation of its own railway, as carriers quarter sessions), it is impossible for them to do so. thereon;-whether the rate should be levied with reference to the rent, which, calculating it on the basis of the net annual value obtained from the statement of the tolls, it might be assumed that a tenant would give for the lease of the tolls only; or with reference to the rent, which, calculating it on the basis of the net annual value derived by the Company from the use of the railway for carrying passengers &c., it must be assumed that a tenant would give for the use of the railway, both as to the tolls and for the purpose of carrying on business on it as a carrier, finding power, carriages, &c. The decision of the Court is in favour of taking the latter mode In stating above what we conceive to be the practical of estimating the rent as the basis of the assessment. principle laid down by this case, we wish not to be unThe decision therefore takes this ground, that the profit derstood as meaning to say, that the Court affected to made by a Railway Company by the use of its land, proceed on that principle, but only that the principle. buildings, and machinery, not merely as owners of the appears to us to be substantially contained in and inseland, and of the right of taking toll, but as traders car-parable from the decision. The Court itself appears to rying on a business by the use of the land, the buildings, and the machinery, is to be, for the purpose of ascertaining the rent on which the poor-rate is to be assessed, the measure of the annual value of the Company's property in the railway. A doctrine which seems very much like saying, that, in determining the imaginary rent on which the poor-rate is to be assessed, one element of the calculation is to be the value of the goodwill of the Company's business, and the profit due

have put its judgment on this-that the trade of a Railway Company carrying on its own line, being inseparably connected with their buildings and lands; being a trade which could have no existence without the buildings and lands; but for which the buildings would not have been erected or occupied; and for the sake of which, in a great measure, the lands are themselves occupied in a particular manner;—the profits of the trade affect the value of the lands and buildings with regard to the rent obtainable, and, therefore, they ought to be taken into account in estimating the rent on which the rate is to be assessed. (See pp. 21 et seq.).
