AS ISOLATES EXAMPLES ONJLT among thousands it has furnished of succor it has rendered the unfortunate, and of blessings dispensed to the public under trying calamities, THE HARTFORD refers to some of the marked disasters suc cessfully encountered during the FIFTY-SIX YEARS of Us business career, as illustrating the character of the benefits it has conferred, and the indemnity it furnishes: NEW YORK. 1835; ST. LOUIS, 1849; TROY 1862; AUGUSTA AND MOBILE, 18G5; PORTLAND, 1866. Thirty-Five Millions of Dollars represent the appalling estimate swept away by' these several disasters., which re duced to bankruptcy every local under writing organization, save four in the re spective localities existing at the dates referred to!!! The claims by these calamities upon this Institution, aggregating Four Hundred and Fifty Thousand vmany lIUJJ'M were promptly met and honorably paid, without the loss of prestige or.credlt.
