It is scarcely necessary to advert to the advantages which,
in all transactions of magnitude' a Company possesses over indi-
viduals but there is perhaps no undertaking to which this re-
mark ardies with so much force as to Insurance of any desciip-
tion. Until within the last few years, however, the Law restrained
all partnerships (except the Royal Exchange arid the London
Assurance Companies) from effecting this sgecies of Assur-
ance. Since this exclusive right has ceased to exist, a few
other Marine Insurance Companies have been established in
London, and the aggregate paid-up Capital of the whole
amounts to less than a million and a half.
Some opinion may be formed of the success
therto attended the Marine Insurance Compan
tinned, from the following Table, showing ti

The Directors of the Neptune Marine Insurance Company,
having received from many influential persons connected with
the mercantile and shipping interests of the country the most
flattering encouragement, and assurances of support, feel
confident that the establishment of this Company will be at-
tended with advantage to the mercantile world, and with profit
combined with security to the Proprietors.
It is not anticipated that a larger instalment than 51. per
Share will be required; and if a Charter be not obtained, a
clause will, as in other Companies recently established, be in-
troduced into each Policy limiting the liability of each Pro-
prietor to the amount of his Shares, which, being the express
contract of the parties insuring, will be bindincrupon them.
Sufficient Capital for the purpose having been already sub-
scribed, the Directors propose to commence business on or be-
fore the Ist of July next, and in order to avoid the unre-
stricted application for such Shares as are yet unappropriated,
by persons not intending to become bona fide Proprietors, they
have resolved only to entertain applications made in ;the printed
form, as below, and accompanied by a deposit of 2/. per Share,
and they reserve to themselves the right of returning the de-
posit if the application be rejected; but if accepted, to be placed
to the credit of the applicant in respect of his Shares.
Copies of the Prospectus may be obtained, and Deposits in
accordance with the printed form paid as under; viz.—
At the Union Bank of London, No. 8, Moorgate-street, and
Argyle-place, Regent-street; or to Messrs. Johnston and Far-
quhar, 32, New Broad-street.
