The extension of the mutual principle to fire
insurance is put forward as an essential fea-

claim all ides of transacting business at lower
rates than those ascertained by experience to be
remunerative," but they point to the rapidity with
which the field of fire insurance is being widened,
and they intimate that " every large number of the
must influential merchants iu London and Liver-
pool" have promised their support to the under-
taking. The corporation of the City of London is
rather strongly represented iu the direction. The
capital is 1,000,000/. in 40,000 shares of 251. each,
of which it is proposed to call up 200,0001.
