ALBANY AGRICULTURAL WAREHOUSE AND 
SEED STORE, 
Removed from stand No. 10 and 12 Green street, to the spacious 
New Store No. 369 Broadway , a few doors South of the 
Post Office, Albany , N. Y. 
THE subscriber being a sufferer from fire, in common with 
a large portion of the citizens of Albany (having lost his store 
and stock on the morning of the 29th of October last), has se¬ 
cured for a term of years the new and extensive store, No. 
369 Broadway, or old Market street, a few doors south from 
the Post Office. This store being 145 feet deep, and four sto¬ 
ries high, is much larger than his former one and running 
through from Broadway to the Canal basin—Broadway being 
the principal thoroughfare in the city, between the boat land¬ 
ings and depfits, the location is readily found. These ad¬ 
vantages, with the increased facilities, will enable him to 
transact many times the business heretofore done by him, and 
more convenient for the trade generally. 
In connection with these changes, he is erecting an exten¬ 
sive manufactory in the central part of the city, sufficiently 
large to accommodate over 100 mechanics, and a proportionate 
amount of labor-saving machinery, which will enable him at 
all times to execute all orders with despatch. And he solicits 
the continuance of that very liberal patronage heretofore be¬ 
stowed upon his establishment. H. L. EMERY. 
N. B. It is his intention to establish branches at Rochester 
and Buffalo the coming spring, each to be under the charge 
of experienced brothers of the subscriber.

AMERICAN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COM¬ 
PANY. 
Office No, 40 Wall Street, N. Y. 
LIFE INSURANCE, upon the plan adopted by this Company, 
is founded upon the principle of contribution in the shape of an¬ 
nual premiums to a common fund, proportioned to the amount 
insured, out of which the Company pay a stipulated sum on the 
death of the assured to the person for whose benefit the insur¬ 
ance is effected. 
After a thorough investigation of the different systems adopted 
in Europe and America, and of the rates of premium charged, 
this company have reduced the premium 25 per cent, payable 
in cash, annually, semi-annually, or quarterly, as may be pre¬ 
ferred, under a firm conviction that the exigencies of the Com¬ 
pany will never exceed and seldom require one half of the an¬ 
nual premium now charged by the English and American Com¬ 
panies, which reduction will still leave a large margin for seasons 
of unusual sickness and death among its members—preferring to 
reduce the premiums at once to an amount more nearly approxi¬ 
mating the actual necessities of the Company than to adopt the 
system of premium notes which is attended with many disadvan¬ 
tages. 
The leading features of this Company are — 
1. A guarantee capital of $50,000, which together with the ac¬ 
cumulating premiums is deemed adequate to meet every contin 
gency. 
2. A reduction in the rates of premiums—payable annually 
semi-annually, or quarterly, as may be preferred. 
3. The assured participate annually in the profits. 
4. Insurance may be effected by any married woman upon the 
life of her husband, for her sole use and benefit, free from any 
claims of the representatives of her husband, or any of his credi¬ 
tors. 
5. No personal liability of the members beyond the an:< ant of 
their annual premium of insurance. 
6. Creditors may insure the lives of their debtors, or debtors 
themselves may insure for the protection of their creditors. 
A prospectus has been issued (which can be had r.t the office 
of the Company, or any of its agents), explanatory of the terms 
and conditions of insurance.
