Notwithstanding that several new Marine Insurance Com-
panies have been established within the last few years, it is
generally recognised that the means of effecting marine in-
sur,tnces are not sufficient to meet the increasing expansion
of trade, insurers being now driven to effect their insurances
in remote towns in the provinces, in Ireland and Scotland,
and on the Continents of Europe and America.
The actual prig: of shares in the existing Marine Insur-
ance Companies demonstrate clearly that the business is
highly remunerative.
Of th new Companies one only has been established in
Liverpool, and it has already secured a very large and lucra-
tive business.
More than half the exports and imports of the kingdom
pass through the port of Liverpool, and there is no doubt,
therefore, that another Company having its Chief Offices in
London and Liverpool will meet with ample support.
Under these circumstances tie British and Foreign Marine
Insurance Company has bean established.
The business of the Company will be confined to the issu-
ing of policies on freight and goods only, and it is expressly
provided, as a fundamental element in the constitution of
this Company, that no insurance shall be effected on the ships
themselves.

The principle of limited liability, as applicable to insurance
companies, came into operation during the month of Novem-
ber last. The Directors, observing that in bankiug and other
important commercial enterprises limited liability has met
w,th universal favour, have adopted it as an unalterable
principle in the present undertaking.
The Directors, therefore, express the greatest confidence in
the success of this Company.
Such rovision has been made by the Directors for the pre-
liminary exp, uses as will secure the Company against pay-
ing any promotion money.
A copy of the articles of association lies at the offices of
the Company for inspection.
The prospectus and forms of applications for shares may be
obtained of the brokers of the k ompany. Application for
shares to be addressed to the Directors ; but no application
will be considered unless a payment has been made to the
bankers of the Company of El per share, on the nu ber of
shares applied fbr. This sum will be returned if no allot-
ment is made to the applicant.
