,At a meeting held to-day of the Clerical, Medi-
al, and General Life Assurance Society, the report
Presented stated that the new annual premium
derived from 485 policies assuring £294,244, have
amounted to £10,017, a sum exceeding the average
of the previous five years. The income has risen from
£195,406 to £200,887 per annum, notwithstanding
the large abatement caused by the application of
the bonus in numerous instances to the reduction
of premiums. After the liquidation of all claims
and expenses, and the payment in cash of the
bonuses on more than 2,000 policies, the consoli-
dated or assurance fund amounted, on the 30th
June last, to £1,332,377.
baring the last few days there has been rather
more activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets. Tea, however, has continued dull.
Sugars have been in better request, and at slightly
enhanced prices. Coffee is dull, and only a mode-
rate business has been transacted in rice, fruit,
spices, and saltpetre, at about previous rates.
o""cqv has remained at steady quotations. P.Y.C.
