It secures independence—domestic happiness to the widow and orplian. 3. It is more efficacious in its operation, as regards the moral and domestic comfort of tlie people, and in its tendency to reduce taxation, by its reduction of pauperism, and possibly of crime, than tho legislation of our wisest statesmen, and u universally adopted, would be a national blessing. 4. It affords to persons o( every class, and in every station of life, the means to avoid much future misery to thei families, and to render them independent of public or private Oharity 5. It is a scheme by which any sum of money may be secured at death, whenever that event may take place, or to be received at any given ago of the life assured.
