Notwithstan,iirg the fa• ilities afforded for the formation
of joint-stock companies by the application of limited liability,
many of our lane shipping towns are still without any im-
proved means of effecting marine insurance.
The vast increase of shipping entering and leaving the
various provincial ports of the United Kingdom renders it
very desirable that the inconveniences of the present system
adpted in such ports for effecting Marine insurances should
be obviated, and the same facilities for insuring afforded as
can be obtained in the metropolis.
The Head Office of this Company will be in London, but
its operations will comprise such towns as Liverpool, Bristol,
Gloucester, Cardiff, Leith, Sunderland, Newcastle, and Hull,
whose commPrcial importance affords a large and profitable
field or Marine Insurance, and from the promises of support
which have already been rece•ved the Directors entertain
the greatest confidence in the success of the undertaking.
A reference to the following stet sties will show ttie great
success which has attended undertakings of t his description
when properly conducted, as well as the estimation in which
their shares are held by the public, notwithstatriing the field
of operations open to them is far more limited than that zon-
templated by this Company:—
Per share paid. Are now worth

The profits made by Marine Insurance Companies gene-
rally, it is well known, are very large, but as some time must
necessarily elapse, from the magnitude of their operations,
before the actual amount realised can be arrived at, the
Directors of the National Provincial Marine Insurance Com-
pany (Limited), propose to pay out of their profits interest
not exceeding 6 per cent. per annum for the first two years,
dividing the surplus by way of bonus and reserve fund at the
End of that period.
An arrangement will be made with an underwriter of high
standing to conduct the London business, whose connection
and influence will at once become available to this Company.

A fair proportion of the shares have already been privately
subscribed for, and the Board will allot at the earliest pos-
sible date.
