THE STANDARD LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY.
ESTABLISHED 1825.
CONSTITUTED BY SPECIAL ACTS OF PARLIAMENT.
I=I.333IPCJIFLT. 1865. •
TEE THIRTY-NINTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the STANDARD LIFE
ASSURANCE COMPANY wee held at Edinburgh on Tuesday the 14th of March,—
T. GRAHAM MURRAY, Esq., Writer to the Signet, in the chair.
frHE MANAGER aubmitted to the Meeting a REPORT by the DIRECTORS as to the PROGItESS
1_ of the BUSINESS daring the year ended 15th November, 1864. He also submitted—
Report on the Books and Accounts by the Auditor of the Company.

communicated in the REPORT :
AMOUNT PROPOSED FOR ASSURANCE during the year (1683 Proposals) —£975,100 0 0
AMOUNT OF ASSURANCES ACCEPTED (1428 Policies) 2805,980 6 6

£437,380 0 8
Accumulated Fund, investedlin Governmeet Securities, in Land, Mortgages, atc. £2,620,272 17 9
THE REPORTAthen proceeded asfollows :
The Company's progress during the past year has been such as to make it a very agreeable duty for the
Directors to submit their Report on the present occasion.
The New Assurances effected exceed by upwards of £lOO,OOO the amount attained in any p-eyious year, even
In those "Rena, Years" when (be near approach of a Division of Profits attracted Proposals for Assurance.
The number of Proposals made to the Company, sod the number accepted, have also been greatly in excess of
any former year; and it may be added, as a means of marking how large that number has been, that it is believed
no Scottish Office has ever before lamed so large a number of Policies in any one year as the STANDARD has done
in 1864.
The casualties by death, gradually increased, as they inevitably must be, as the Assured increase in age, have
been moderate in number, while all claims have been amply provided for and duly met.
The Funds, which have been largely increased, continue to be safely invested at a very remunerative rate of
Interest, chiefly on the security of land by way of mortgage.
The Expenses of the Company show each year a diminished percentage on the Revenue.
The general character of the Company throughout Ithe whole Kingdom for liberality and fair dealing has
been maintained and increased.
These are the general results of the year in connection with the ordinary business procedure of the Standard
Company ; but the Directors have further to mention a most important transaction, which has added upwards of
£BO,OOO per annum to the Company's income, and £400,000 to the Accumulated Funds. The ..._EI,NERvA Lire
ASSURANcIi COMPANY, an office of high character and position in the city of London, having expressed a wish to
retire from business, selected the STANDARD as an office of such character and responsibility as to be entrusted
with the future management of its affairs. The negotiation, which has been in progress for nearly twelve months,
has now been brought to • satisfactory conclusion, and in future the business of the 511temtva will be conducted
by the STANDARD LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, in which its whole obligations have merged, and to which its
whole property and assets, present and prospective, hays been conveyed.
The Proprietors are probably aware that the Legislature, in granting to the STANDARD its last Act of
Parliament, conferred on it peculiarly comprehensive powers for the acquisition of the business of other offices
discontinuing business. These powers overcome all difficulties in the way of such transactions; and as the
Company thus act under the direct authority of Parliament, they are enabled to deal very confidently in carrying
out such negotiatione, fully indemnifying the office declining business, while they have ample power of protection
for themselves.
It is scarcely necessary to add that in acquiring the MINERVA. business, the Manager took every means to
satisfy himself es to the position of the Company before coming to terms with them, and that the Directors are
entirely 'satisfied with those terms.
The Directors feel confident that all interested in the Institution will feel much satisfaction in these results,
and will continue to accord their ready support to the Directors in the prosecution of the business, with the
management of which they have entrusted them.
1865 BEING THE BONUS YEAR, •
the Directors appeal thus early to their co-Proprietors, to the Assured, and to all interested in the Company, to
aid its progress. The opportunity is a favourable one, and they hope that all will take due advantage of the
occasion to extend the influence of the STANDARD, and bring their friends to participate in its benefits.
The Staff of Agents which the Company now possess is a most valuable one, and has been largely increased
by additions from the MINERTA COMPANY. No Life Assurance Company in the present day can maintain its
position solely by the support which it derives from the locality in which it is established; it must have • wider
field, to afford sufficient scope for its proceedings, and to supply a proper average for its calculations. Such
Institutions are, therefore, spread over the whole country, by means of Agencies; and the importance of a good
staff of Agents cannot be overestimated. The STANDARD are most fortunate in the class of representatives
which they have secured, and the thanks of the Directors of the Company are due to them for their aolitinued
and successful exertions in the promotion of its interests.
The Directors have again to lament the death of a leading member and true friend of the Institution, the
' late Mr. James Roberteon, W.S., the Solicitor of the Company—a man whose upright character had made for
him many friends.
The vacancy in the Office of Deputy-Governor of the Company, occasioned by the lamented death of the Earl
of Elgin, has been filled up by (be appointment of the Rimer ROSOURABLE THE EVIL OF ROSELYN.
The Directors are also happy to state that the RIGHT HONOURABLE LORD DurFERIN has accepted the
Chairmanship of the Company's Dublin Board—Loan Ewa° occupying a similar position in London.
The ChAIBMAN, in moving the adopticn of the Report, then addressed the Meeting in the following terms:—
On the present occasion, before moving that the Report and Statements be approved, I, as your Chairman,
have little eke to do than to congratulate you on the successes of the peat year. Thee are one or tisalapoiatta,
however, to which, in connection with these Statemeets, I would wish to draw your attention.
The Report has informed you that the New Policies of the year amount to 1428. This gives an average sum
assured by each Policy of £564; and you could not, it strikes me, have a better symptom of the healthy character
of your business. The number of Policies shows that our risks are extended over a wide area, whilst the average
sum proves that we are keeping a middle course (which is ever proverbially aside one), between very small Policies
on the one baud, and very large Assurances on Single Lives on the other. These latter are always dazzling in
their prospects, but often dangerous in their results.
I would also wish to point out to you that this large amount of Policies consists solely of STANDARD Business.
You have been informed of the large addition which is now in operation, from the acquisition of the Mmicays
Business; but although the negotiations connected with that acquisition extended far back into the year with
which we are dealing, and the MINERVA OFFICE had not ceased, during the whole period, to transact business for
the STANDARD COMPANY'S benefit, that new business, amounting to a very large sum, has not been included in
the amount reported as the new business of the year. This may perhaps appear to you unimportant ; but in
these clays of competition, when remits are so much canyaved, dustinctivss of statement is essentially necessary.
The approaching Division of Profits is full of interest for us all; and the Manager informs me that the
laborious calculations necessary to show the result of the Company's operations during the past five years are
making rapid progress. Those who join us before November will have the advantage of participating; and I
have no doubt a large number will take advantaie of the opportunity.
The STANDARD holds • position not surpassed by any office. Its large business and resources secure it a con-
stant accession of the hest class of Business; while the liberality of its management, as widely acknowledged by
ell persons who hold its contracts, whether as debtors or creditors—creditors as holders of Policies—debtors as
Mortgagers in connection with the investment of it. Funds—is such as to give it • well-earned preference.
When you assemble here again, to hold the Fortieth Annual Meeting of the Company, I hope you will have,
if possible, a still more satisfactory Report than that now submitted; and the Directors will rejoice in having it
in their power to congratulate you on &still higher position; but while every energy will be redoubled to produce
this result, they will not omit to give the profitable investment of your large capital their most anxious attention,
while they study, by the economical management of the Company's extended connection, to develop° to the tallest
degree the benefits of Life Assurance. (Applause.)

BELL'S AMMONIA-FIXED PERUVIAN GUANO
Is Ms. per Ton Cheaper than Natural Guano, and produces 10 per Cent. more Wheat—Proved by Experiments.

THE fixing the Ammonia with Sulphuric Acid, adding Magnesia, and rendering the Phosphates

For MANGEL. TURNIPS, CABBAGES, and other Root Crops, it. beneficial effects will be found to be
