Showing an Increase in one year of
Among the incidents which have tended to the advance-
ment of the Royal Within the last few months may be reckoned
its action with respect to the losses sustained by the explo-
sion of the Lotty Sleigh, which although only con, istent with
the general tenor of the conduct of the Company, and ulti-
mately proved to be no more than what had been done in for-
mer times by the oldest and most proverbially honourable
among its contemporaries, yet attracted attention and public
favour by its unhesitating promptness.
As the largest total of Revenue and the largest ratio of
progression have been attained in the present year, so it
happens that the buwest Profit which it has ever fallen to the
Directors to reeere has likewise on this occasion to be an-
nounced. The balance of net profi ron the year has amounted
to £83,515 ; of whi„„ „um £34, too only has been appropriated
to Dividend hud is:You ,;, and the large balan-e of £49,444 been
carried to Reserve. n- '
LIFE BRANCH.
The p,rogTess 0 the Life Branch, as shown by the New
Business transacted ear he yearer, is most promising, and
the advances made, yby in the amount of New In-
surances effected, si'l{,y; clearly the estimation in which the
Company is held. The following is a statement for the last
five years :--

This rapid growth araounting to 73 per cent. on the Sum. Assured, and uhwarris of 80 per cent. on the Premium re-
ceived in the course- f five years, may justly be considered as
larger than any whit', could have been reasonably expected.
