having received the cordial support of several old-estab-
lished Assurance Office; and secured the services as Mana-
ger, of Mr. Chas. C. Green, for many years the Manager of
an Assurance Company in the City, and part of the capital
having been subscribed, the Directors determined some
months since to commence business, and thus practically
test the promises of support made from so many quarters be-
fore bringing the Company before the public ; and they
have the satisfaction of stating that they have received
1,272 Proposals, amounting to the large sum of £1,034,431,
as appears by the books of the Company ; the premiums
on which they believe exceed in amount the first year's in-
come of many existing Insurance Offices of high standing
and respectability. Advantageous arrangements have been
made with an Established Fire Insurance Company for re-
insuring half their risks, by which nearly 600 Policies will
at once be opened by the Company in that department.
And in order still further to extend the operations of the
Company and take advantage of the offers of new business
received from various quarters, the Directors now offer the
remaining Shares to the public, believing it will prove a
safe and profitable, investment.

1,01. This Company was established last year for the pur-
t se of extending the benefits of Life, Fire, and Guaran-
pbusiness generally throughout Great Britain, France,
4,4,rePe, India, the Colonies, and other parts of the world,
to.'" to offer greater facilities for effecting the same at such
'Amiable rates as experience has found to be safe and
itact•
~ 'cable ; the Company having already done a large
he-
eeitit of business in this country, and established influ-
titiatial Boards in Paris, Florence, and the Mauritius, with a
I:f4sand active agents throughout France, they now come
their ?re the public for the purpose of still further extending
7 operations at home and abroad.
th,,,` Life Assurance has made rapid progress in this coun-
t4J during the last twenty years, yet at the present time
Itheje is not 7 per cent. of the population assured, and
p,'".ough it is beginning to attract serious attention in
klitece, Belgium, Germany, and Italy, yet there is not in
Europe 2 per cent. of the population assured ; there is
therefore no limit to the vast field open to this Company ;
r,:ld it only requires care, energy, and perseverance, with
471r5eful attention to the interests of the Assured, to obtain
,T3iness unlimited in amount, with proportionate benefits
the shareholders and the public.
Fo' The Life Policies of this Company are indisputable.
4ey and fraud alone excepted.
"-L'ho Profits will be divided in the following manner,
kgi• .--To the Shareholders, Five per cent. interest, pay-
halflearly, and all the profits of the general business
with Twenty per cent. of the Life Profits divided
ti a, bonus every five years. To the Assured for Life
it•figtY per cent. of the Profits as a Bonus every five years,
14,e,..b. may be applied in making the Policies payable dur-
it° we, in reduction of Premiums, or by adding the
rrlitit to the Policy.
Are'
FIRE INSURANCE.—It is well known that there is
ik;Perty amounting to upwards of Two Thousand Millions
oured in this country alone, and in France there is
Vin greater amount uninsured ; and as the Duty on Fire
18:l'ance will no doubt be shortly taken off, or reduced to
Per cent., the increase in this business will be very
Co 04, and offer ample and profitable employment for this
641Pany.
Gaa QtrARANTEE.—There are only two old-established
thr:rautee Societies in England, and in other countries
that is no institution of the sort ; it is, therefore, believed.
Qv there is ample room for the Company's operations in
Coat
branch of business—viz., Guaranteeing Government
ibarrl'acts, Government Officials, Receivers in Chancery,
ecitm°,f Rents, and of all persons requiring Security ; the
faci-I;ue,r-guaranteeing private Sureties, and offering greater
0-t,es to Bankers, Merchants, Railway, and all Public
th.,'Zponies, for obtaining Security for the honesty of there
F`°Y4s upon moderate terms, with the certainty that all
lilatt.4lB will be fairly met and promptly paid. There has
kids rite been a feeling of uncertainty upon these points,
teth„,le consequence, Guarantee Societies have not alto-
ter 'r superseded private suretyship. In order to coup-
t,hi:cot this feeling, and give greater confidence to the
'Ri°mPany proposes to refer all doubtful claims to the
etilax°ll of competent mercantile men, who will, assisted
ti She Directors, examine and settle the amount to be paid,
Aztri,.aN'oiding all litigation; and it is believed that a Com-
Pert established upon this basis will meet with the sup-
tectZld confidence of the mercantile world. To employds
'See '',eg security advantages will be offered for the Assur-
-1.11)04 °1 their Lives in connection with the Guarantee
.4g• the.reduced scale of premiums, so that while secur-
'4 fooir employers they will at the same time be provid-
their families in case of death on more favourable

The half-yearly meeting was held at Edinburgh
on Thursday. Mr. Hodgson presided.
The report, an abstract of which has appeared in
The Sun, was held as read.

The CHAIRMAN congratulated the shareholders
upon the condition of their property. The rolling
stock and permanent way were both in excellent
condition, and the trains kept time with punctuality.
Although some might have expected a larger divi-
dend than 21 per cent. per annum, he, for one, was
contented to see it gradually increase. If the divi-
dend was not high, it must be recollected that every
shareholder had had the option of taking up about
£44 or £45 worth of preference for every £lOO of
ordinary stock whieh he held, and on that pre-
ference stock he was getting sto 5f per cent. The

joint purse arrangement with -tile Edinburgh
and Glasgow had, he thought, benefited both
parties, and, though the dividend of that company
had increased by 1 per cent:, while theirs had only
been increased by k per cent., they must recollect
that the previous dividend of the Edinburgh and
Glasgow had been depressed by the heavy compen-
sations payable on account of the Winchburgh acci-
dent. Of the bills this company had before Parlia-
ment the one of greatest importance to them was the
Forth-bridge Bill. Without that bridge the traffic of
this company would never be satisfactorily developed.
The opposition to it was based on the questions of
foundations and estimates, and on the supposed ob-
stacles to the navigation, but the Board of Trade
report on the last point, and the evidence of. Mr.
Bouch, the engineer, and other eminent engineers
who would be brought to support him, would show
that the foundations were all that could be desired,
and that the bridge could be erected for the esti-
mated cost. The next scheme in point of importance
was the Bridge of Tay, which was promoted by a
local company, supported by the North British. The
various bills before Parliament were all, he thought,
susceptible of amicable adjustment as between the
rival companies, except that of the Caledonian, for
a line to Lasswade and Penecuick, which must be
opposed as encroaching on a district which this com-
pany had hitherto served. The capital which this
company proposed to raise for the purposes of the
bills before Parliament was £565,700, this com-
pany's contribution to the Forth-bridge being
£395,000. The above sum is exclusive of £187,500,
this company's moiety of the expenses of the Tay
bridge. One of the company's bills in Parliament
was for an access to the Citadel station, Carlisle, in-
dependent of the Caledonian, and for forming a new
goods station, probably along with the Midland,
with which the directors thought the bonds should
be drawn as close as possible.

Mr. SPROT seconded the motion for the adoption
of the report.

Mr. A. ARKLAY complained that the promise of
a 3 per cent. dividend had not been realised, although
the anticipated addition of £2,000 a week had been
made to the traffic. He thought it was time that the
system of amalgamations, leases, and extensions was
at an end.

After some discussion on the Sunday question, the
motion of the chairman was unanimously agreed to,
dividends were declared as recommended in the re-
port, the retiring directors were re-elected, and a
vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro-
ceedings.

of shareholders to investigate the private aff Airs of
the company, and to report their opinion within a
month to a general meeting to be called for the pur-
pose."

The amendment was rejected by a large majority.
A dividend at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum
for the past half-year having been declared, and Mr
Parker re-elected auditor, a vote of thanks was
passed to the chairman and the proceedings termi-
nated.
