Some people's uerves secrete sweetness and ote sourness, Sometimes those who inuke the great- est eforts to fulfll the commandments of God have no exalied emotions of joy. The ques- tion is not, are you happy? but are you de- termined to bud a manhood patterned after Christ?

Ut ANBURANCE pas ALUANY, N. Yo, April 29 1871, Pursuant to the authority vested in me by law, and in accordance with an intention expressed in my annual report of 1870, to the Legisinture of thia State, I have made and | caused to be made, certain examinations into the affairs and | condition of several of the jnsurance companies doing bust: ness in this State, HII | Inthe month of November, 1870, an examination of the | books, accounts, asseis aud general condition of the Knick- erbocker Life Insurance Company of New York was instituted, That examination has just been completed, and although in the annual report referred to it was distinetly announced that “it need not be considered as an imputation | upon the standing of any company that {t is under examina- itis claimed that an effort bas been made to ase the fact of the protracted investigation in this case to the /Tdeem it due to the company, ton," still, disadvantage of the company and also to the public, to rnake # report of the result of such examination. ‘The examination was not made fn consequence of any specitic charges against the Company or its management, but 1 intention above referred to. in accordance with the ene The KNICKERBOCKER was organized in 1853, upon o capital of $100,000, and for the frst ten years Its progress was slow. Since 1863, however, its business had rapidly in- | greased, until, as appears by gue annual statement of the | condition of the Company, December 81, 1859, it had out- standing 22,078 policies, insuring the sum of $66,898,439, with aggregate assets of $6,180,’ of $5,860,701, and aggregate liabilities There were but three companies organized under the laws | of New York which reporied a larger amount of business done or more assets, Tne businces of the company was done on the “note” plan, and consequently quite a large portion of | its assets consisted of premium notes, Ill It had been intimated that note companies were quite cure. | less in regard to the accuracy of the statement of assets, and te which upon polictes not in force, that notes were frequently iaciuded among the were, in fact, given tor prem ‘and hence of no value. ‘II | | The KNICKEREOKER, being a leading note company, it | was thought best (0 make at as early a date as practicable a | thorougia investigation of all 8 affairs, with a view to | ous, ab least so far as that com- settling this and other qui | pany was concerned. [Hi ‘The examivation made has been most extensive and ex haustive. All the notes, amounting in the ageregate to over | 25,000 in number, have been separately examined, a full list | made and compared with Ue entries in the books, and they have withoutexception been found to be notes given upon poll- cies an force. All the other assets and accounts of the company have algo been subjected to the closest scrutiny, and quite tanding upon the books against agents have large amounts been disallowed, from which the company will no doubt be abie ultimately to realize, but which are of so uncertaina value as to prevent their Leiag allowed fn my estimate of the condition of the company. Notwithstanaing the (horough sifting to which tne assets of the company have been suvjected, however, fam happy to be able to state that they amounted on the first day of Jana- ary, 1871, to the sum of $7,010,073 65, while tbe itabiiities, ading reserve fund and capital stock, amounted to in {$6,844,996 28, leaving a surplus of assets over all liabilities | of $175,077 69, ‘This surplus, however. would be increased to 560,662 84, by including tue amounts disallowed as above stated, which are claimed by (he company to be valid and available asacts, thus showing the company to be entirely solvent and entiled to ff conidence of ite policy holdere anid the public. Jt affords me much pleasure aiso to be able to state that the company has adopted the policy of as rapidly as possible | abandoning the “note” system and effecting insurances upon the all cash basie, and that with this and other tmproved methods of business adopted, and the extensive business already established, tue company has every prospect of con- tinued success, Complaints have been made against thi irness and liberality toward well as othey of a want of compan | pottey holders, but, #0 far ua the facts appear from my In- vestigation, I find that the Knickerbocker has honorably and promptly met and discharged all legitimate claims, the | gross sum paid for such clatms upon polieles since its orga- nization amounting to $2,51,849.86, besides divide: to policy holders, amounting wo $905,424.85, ds patd In view of atl the facts disci I feel warranted in saying. that the company {8 entitied to public confidence.
