FIRE B RANCH.
The Premiums of the year 1863 reached the sum
of £341,663
Beim,* an advance of 40,977
over 1862; an amount of increase exceeding that of any pre
v.ous year.
The Revenue from Fire Premiums has been en-
hanced in four years by the large sum of £113,353

The Duty paid to Government in 1862 was. £75,993
Ditto ditto, 1863 88,966

Among the incidents which have tended to the advance-
ment of Are [loyal within the last few months may be reckoned
its a. tion with respect to the losses sustained by the explo-
sion of the Lotty Sleigh, which although only conAstent 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 nroverbialiy 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 largest Profit which It has ever fallen to the
Directors to record has likewise on this occasion to be an-
nounced. The balance of net profit on theyear has amounted
to 0c83,515 of which sum £34,100 only has been appropriated
to Dividend and Bonus, and the large balance of £49,444 been
carried to Reserve.

The paavigamwe
Business transacted in the laid year, is most proniising, an,
the advances made, year by year, in the amount of New In
surances effected, show clearly the estimation in which the
Company is held. The following is a statement for the last
five years :
Net Sum Assured on New Policies
after deducting Guarantees. Net Premiums.
1859
1860
1861
1862
1863
This rapid growth, amounting to 73 per cent. on the Sum
Assured, and upwards of 80 per cent. on the Premium re-
ceived in the course of five years, may justly be considered as
larger than any which could have been reasonably expected.
The first half of the current year 1864, however, far outstrips
the ratio of increase indicated by the figures just quoted, as
the sum assured for that period of six months only actually
exceeds Half-a-Mil ion sterling.
The rate of Mortality, likewise, still presents highly favour-
able features, and augurs well for the result to be shown by
tne quinquennial investigation, which is to take place when
the present year is concluded.
