one strong institution, with its chief office in London,
nerons small local and colonial institulons, requiring
0013solidaton and additional strength and resource.
he principle of so uniting small colonial institutions has
Teen most successfully applied to colonial and foreign bank-
rig' Companies ; and as London is becoming daily more and
ante rthe the great "clearing house" of the commercial world,
different colonial insurance offices have experienced the
iusnitite neon •ity of being effectually represented there, and
Ws representation they now realise can only be Id y secured,
Kati the case of the colonial local banks, through amalga-
on with some London ccmpany of ample means and cora-
