Among the incidents which have tended to the advance-
3nent of the Royal within the last few months may be reckoned
its alion with respect to the losses sustained by the explo-
eion of the Lotty Sleigh, which although only con4stent with
the general tenor of the conduct of the Company, and ulti-
'-uately proved to be no more than what had been done in for-
mes by the oldest and most proverbially honourable
l
t_Lmng its contemporaries, yet attracted attention and public
avoour by its unhesitating promptness.

Businessogres of the Life Branch, as promising b the New transacted in the last year, is mo=t, and
'psue advances made, year by year, in the amount of New In-
ances effected, shlw clearly the estimation in which the
Company is held. The following is a statement for the last
pave Years :

after deducting Guarantees. Net Premiums.
1859 ........ £431,470 11 10
1860 ........ 419,241 16 2

1662 ........ 701,4 715 3
1863
........ 752,546 18 10
• 61118 rapid growth, amounting to 73 per cent. on the Sum
!s..vsured, and upwards of 80 per cent. on the Premium re-
?el ed in the course of five years, may justly be considered as
;,,,t!ger than any which could have been reasonably expected.
The first half of the current year 1864, however, far outsti ips
.1;le ratio of increase indicated by the figures ju.t quoted, as
the sum assured for that period of six months only actually
exceeds Half-a-Mil ion sterling.
,ahlThe rate of Mortality, likewise, still presents highly f avour-
te features, and augurs well for the result to be shown by
ha,e, quinquennial investigation, which is to take place when

by the Medical Profession, and universally accepted by the
Public, as the Best Remedy for Acidity of the Stomach,

Aperient qualities are much increased. During Hot Seasons,
and, above all, in Hot Climates, the regular use of this sim-
ple and e'egact remedy has been found highly beneficial.
