GOVERNMENT ANNUITIES.
THE Commissioners for the Reduction of the
National Debt, under the authority of Parlia-
ment, grant annuities either on single lives, or
on two lives and the life of the survivor, or on
the joint continuance of two lives, such annui-
ties to commence immediately. In the case of
single lives, the annuity _may_ be made to com-
mence at a future period, and the consideration
for it may be paid by the purchaser annually in
sums of money not less than ?5, but in case of
default in keeping up the annual instalments,
all the annual payments previously made are
forfeited, and all right to the annuity is ex-
tinguished.
Payment for an annuity is made by the
transfer of 2 1/2 per cent. Consols, or money of equi-
valent value, at the price of the stock on the day
of the transaction.
The tables (see p.44) show the annuity which
?100 of 2 1/2 per cent. stock will purchase, to con-
tinue during the life of a nominee at the re-
spective ages and according to the prices of 2 1/2
per cent. stock therein stated. It will be seen
that in the case of money being paid for the
purchase of the annuity, the higher the price of
Consols the dearer will be the purchase. Thus,
a female buying an annuity at the age of fifty,
amounting to ?5 19s. 8d. per annum, and Consols
being at _par_, or 100, would, if she paid for it
_in money_, have to expend ?100. But suppose
Consols to be at 108 (as they are at present) she
would have to pay ?108 for the same annuity.
Tables relating to annuities on joint lives and
to deferred annuities may be obtained at the
National Debt Office, 19, Old Jewry, London, by
application direct, or through a bank.
No person under the age of fifteen can be ap-
pointed the nominee for any life annuity.
Life annuities are payable quarterly at the
National Debt Office, in the form of a warrant
on the Bank of England, either on personal
demand, or through a bank by Power of Attor-
ney; or they can be transmitted to the pro-
prietor by post. The fixed dates are the fifth of
January, the fifth of April, the fifth of July, and
the fifth of October in each year.
The first quarterly payment of annuities will
become due as follows, namely: On annuities
purchased between the first of December and
the last day of February, on the fifth of April
next following the day of purchase.
Between the first of March and the last day of
May, on the fifth of July next following.
Between the first of June and the last day of
August, on the fifth of October next following.
Between the first of September and the last
day of November, on the fifth of January next
following.
No sum less than ?100 of stock or money can
be received in the first instance, but it may be
added to subsequently in sums of not less than
?20.
Upon the expiration of any life annuity a
sum equal to one-fourth of the annuity (over and
above all quarterly arrears thereof) will be paid
to the representatives of the annuitant, if
claimed within two years after such expiration.
Very heavy penalties attach to persons
making false statements or declarations in
respect of the purchase of an annuity.
Per Acts 10 Geo. IV., cap. 24, and 51 and 52 Vic. cap 15.

INSURANCE OFFICE ANNUITIES.
Some of the Insurance Offices grant imme-
diate annuities. Of course, in purchasing a life
annuity from an Insurance Office, it is necessary
to ensure as far as is humanly possible that an
annuity will be paid for life. This not only de-
pends upon the present solvency of the company,
but upon that solvency being maintained. There
is not much difficulty, however, in selecting
from amongst the numerous well-established
companies, with proper advice, one that will
answer every requirement. The following table
shows the amount of an annuity granted by the
undermentioned companies for every ?100 paid.
The age last birthday is that upon which the pay-
ment is based, and the initial letters M. and F.
indicate the rates for male and female lives.
The ages quoted range from 50 to 70 years, but
the terms for purchasing an annuity at any age
can be obtained at the Insurance Office.
By a few companies, distinguished thus (!),
the proportionate amount of annuity is payable
to the day of death.

INDIAN GOVERNMENT STOCKS.
These stocks stand as high in the estimation
of the public as the British Government Funds.
They consist of loans raised in this country for
the use of the Indian Government and are two
in number, bearing interest respectively at the
rate of 3 and 3 1/2 per cent.
There is also what is termed a Rupee Paper
Loan, raised in India at 3 1/2 per cent. per annum.
The interest is paid in the currency of the coun-
try, which is the rupee, and that coin being
worth only a little more than half its nominal
