Government Notices NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITIES. THE Government having been empowered by special Acts of the Legislature to enter into contracts for Insurances on Lives, and for the grants of Annuities and Endowments, are now prepared to execute any of the usual contracts dependent upon the contingencies of human life. The Rules and Regulations framed under the Acts of the Legislature have been drawn up in a liberal spirit, and hold out. f r many obvious reasons, greater advantages than can be obtained elsewhere. The following are pr. seated as deserving of Public attention, and especially of the Working Classes : 1. The tables of Premiums in all the branches arc considerably less than in any other office in New Zealand. 2. All transactions, and Powers of Attorney and other documents, are free of Stamp Duty and all taxation. 3. No charge is made beyond the purchase money or premium, paid quarterly, half-yearly, or annually. 4. Foui teeuor twenty-one days of grace, according to the intervals of payment, arc allowed beyond the due dates; ami should the assured die during these periods, the policy will still be valid.? 5. Surrender values arc granted on the whole or any part of a contract which lias endured for live years. G. Re idenee is permitted in any part of the Australasian Colonies or Europe, and premiums may ahvays be paid on the due dates at the nearest Money Order Office. 7. Insurances effected for the benefit of and settled on Wife or Children are free, to the extent of L 2,000, from the claims of Creditors. 8. The Consolidated Revenue of the Colony is liable for all claims, in the event of the monies received (which are safely invested at compound interest) at any time being insufficient to meet demands, thus affording the best security to the Assured.
