LIFE ASSURANCE. 
■DEPORT of the SELECT COMMITTEE of the 
, HOUSE of COMMONS, and the DEPOSIT SYSTEM. The new 
anu important feature of Life Assurance adopted by tho DEPOSIT 
and GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY. 
The following is an extract from tho Report of tlio Scloct Com- 
mittcc : — 
“™ c objects which persons hnve in view in effecting Insurances npon 
tneir lives, are generally of an important and solemn character, viz., 
tno provision for widows and orphans after the death of their natural 
protectors; unlike any ordinary transaction of trade, a contract once 
i m. ,° cannot bo discharged or abandoned, if doubts of tlio 
stability of an office slionUl arise, without a sacrifice of premiums paid 
in past ycurs, nnd the necessity of effecting new policies In other offices 
at increased rates of premium, owing to the greater age of tho assured ; 
persons are thus placed in the anxious and unhappy dilemma of being 
compelled to persevere in pay ing premiums from year to year, with some 
suspicion nnd doubt as to the ultimate advantage of doiiig so, or of In- 
curring the serious loss which, under tho most favourable circumstances, 
must attend the abandonment or salo of a policy." 
( On the deposit system a person is not “ compelled ” to pay, from 
“ year to year," aud lie does not, if desirous of “abandoning" his 
policy, incur any “serious loss," but, on tho contrary, ho may pay 
such amounts, nnd at such times, as lie may find money convenient; 
lie can stop paying whenever he pleases, and ho cun withdraw tlio 
whole or part of his premiums. If tho whole bo withdrawn the policy 
is cancelled ; if part only, then the value of tho policy Is diminished by 
the assured value of the part withdrawn. 
A. B., aged 20, opens a deposit policy with a payment of 5/., which it 
will be seen lie increases from time to time, and occasionally diminishes. 
For example. — Tho following abstract of a Ledger Account will 
show the operation of the scheme : —

Thus A. B,, in ten years, has saved and Invested at different inter- 
vals various sums amounting to 07/., by which lie had been insured in 
case of death for 2G0/. 12s. 7</.; but A. B. requires 22/., lie draws this 
sum out, and diminishes the value of his policy by GO/. 8s. 3d. at 
different times, leaving him in case of death u policy for 200/. 4s. 1</., 
and during his life a lund of 75/. to draw out at any time, In part or 
wholly. 
The first claim settled by the Deposit nnd General Life Assurance 
Company wus upon a deposit of 10/., which a parent made for each of 
five children, Insteud of adding it to an account they had at the Saving's 
Bank. One of them died a few days after the 10/. was deposited, and 
the father received 34/. 6s., being the amount of tho deposit policy. 
EXAMPLE No. 2. 
Supposing A. B. aged twenty-throe, when he opens a deposit policy 
lins the means, and continues voluntarily, to pay tlio same sum every 
year in the same way as he is compelled to do in the ordinnry sys- 
tem : — 
rue premium oi commencing m _■> yewo <> <>g'. 
an ordinary policy (as it may be) every year till A II is 4G years old 
will secure the same sum, viz., 1000/., but if A B lives 17 years longer 
(which is the probable duration of life at the time he effected the Insu- 
rance) his deposit policy, for the same pnyments as for an ordinary 
policy of 1,000/., will have increased to 1,525/. 6s. Gd.
