THE ROYAL INSURANCE COMPANY,

INSUB kNCE BUILDINGS, LIVERPOOL.•
CHAIRMAN IN LIVIIRPOOL—CharIes Turner, Esq.
CHAIRMAN OF LONDON BOARD—Sainnel Baker, Esq.
The Royal Insurance Company Is one of the largest Fire
Offices In the kingdom.
At the Annual Meeting of the Bth instant the following highly
satisfactory results were shown :
FIRM BRANCH.

In 1855. the premiums were .£130,00
In 1856
In 1857
From which it appears. therefore, that wh the year 1856
showed an increase of 21,6731., the year 1857 furnishes a farther
advance of 23,2851, together making an increase of Fire Pre.
miums alone of naarly4s,oool. in the last two years.
It is believed that ONLY THREE OFFICES NOW EQUAL
THE ROYAL in Fire Revenue.
The increase upon the Duty paid by this Company in 1857 on
Fire Insurances is no less thou 5,1201.
No two London Offices equal, in their united increase of Duty
for that year, the additional amount oontributed by the Royal
Insurance Company.
LIFE BRANCH.
The progress of this department has been most remarkable,
as evinced in the following statement :
In 1855, the premiums arising from New Life
Policies were 25.600 18 6
In 1857 " amounted to 210,370 8 6
It will thus be seen that the NEW Business of the past year
nearly doubles that of two years since. This is mainly come.
quail upon the LARGE BONUS declared in 4855. which
amounted to no less than 21. per cent. per annum on the sums
assured, and averaged 80 per cent. on the premiums paid.
