UNITY FIRE INSURANCE ASSOCIATION. Head Offices-40, Pall Mall, London. TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF LIVERPOOL AND ITS NEIGHBOURHOOD. THE period between Christmas Day and old, Christmas Day being one of the most important in the year for effecting Fire Insurances, I beg most respect fully to remind you of the approaching opportunity for bringing your own policies, and inducing your friends and neighbours to bring theirs to this office, or to some of the Liverpool agents. It has not only become an ambition on the part of each member of the Unity to be a direct contributor of business to the concern, but it is also a commercial fact, that every policy added to the vast number already completed is a new source of profit, augmenting your own respective dividends ; and you will find among our acquaintances many who are not bound to other offices, and who have To commence Insurances hitherto neglected; To augment Insurances hitherto insufficient ; To renew Insurances expiring at this time ; And some persons have ALL these things to do. It will be well to remind all your friends that " he who insures his property has compensation in case of loss ; he who does not insure has self-reproach instead." And let it ever be borne in mind, that in asking your friends to insure with this gigantic Association, you are suggesting a positive benefit to themselves, seeing that two thirds of all the profits of the concern are to be returned to thelpolicy-holders every five years, not as a capricious or patronising bonus, but as a debt specially due to them, pro portionate is their outlay in insurance. SHARES IN THE ASSOCIATION. The whole of the 500,000 original shares, of £2 each, have been taken up by nearly 5,000 subscribers, and are now to be divided into 1,000,000 shares of .£l, as directed by the Registrar-General, in order to be uniform with the new shares. The deposits on the former are all paid up, and the .h.roa are at a high premium. The new shares, 1,000,000 in number, at 2s. 6d. deposit and 2s. 6 premium, are just beginning to be issued ; and, as the premium itself is paid into the funds of the whole association, the old and new members are thereby alike benefited. This is a trifling entrance-fee to pay for admittance to a large concern now solidly establishe 1; and already, although the new issue was only authorised, by law, so recently as the 28th November, no fewer than 70,000 to 80,000 shares have been applied for on this basis ! Your friends may, therefore, not only secure for themselves two-thirds of the profits by insuring with us, but may also receive the other one-third of the profits by becoming share holders, in addition to 5 per cent. per annum interest on their deposits. I repeat, that a single half-crown per share, for such ad vantages, is indeed a smallentrance-fee, especially as it is paid into the very funds of which every purchaser of shares be conies a co-proprietor.

BnowN, Esq., M.P., seconded by THOMAS Boucx, Esq., Vice-president of the Chamber of Com merce, and Resolved unanimously,—" That, as the Decimal System of Money and of Accounts affords greater facility, and is more clear, simple, and correct than that at present in use in this country, it is of great importance to the interests of trade and commerce that it should be adopted." It was moved by T. B. HORSFALL, Esq., M.P., seconded by J. A. Picrox, Esq., and Resolved unanimously,—" That such a system, tending necessarily to a decimal mode of keeping accounts and making calculations, will abridge the labour of the master in teaching, and the scholar in learning arithmetic, it will simplify all monetary transactions to the humblest person in the country, as well as to the more wealthy. It will give us advantages in vending the products of our industry in the various markets of the world, where we have to m' et compe tition, and enable engineers, contractors, men of science, and parties engaged in other pursuits to perform, with more ease, correctness, and satisfaction, the complicated calculations which frequently devolve upon them." It was moved by J. R. JEFFERY, Esq., seconded by ALEX ANDER WILVEEN, Esq., and Resolved unanimously,—" That, as a decimal coinage has been recommended in a most decided manner by the report of the Parliamentary Committee appointed last session, it is the opinion of this meeting that its immediate adoption should be pressed upon her Majesty's Government by the community at large.' It was moved by Jxo. PEMBERTON HEYWOOD, Esq., se conded by FRANCIS CUNT, Esq., and Resolved unanimously,—" That his Worship the Mayor be respectfully requested to forward copies of the foregoing resolutions to the Prime Minister, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lord John Russell, M.P., and the President o the Board of Trade." JOHN B. LLOYD, Mayor. The Mayor having left the chair, it was moved by Wm.
