The DireSaors of this Office.!_have, from- the moment of
its Establishinent, constantly endeavoured-to make such Ar
angernents.- as should be more suitable tb promote the Bene-
fits of Fire Insurance than those of the Old Mode. • Ex.-
tended Commerte; —enlarged Manufaaolles ac-
. curnulatien of Property ;7-and a variety of collateral Cir-
cumstances, rendered it absolutely necessary ty make Varia-
tions inFire Insurance, to avoid the Errors which from time
to time had,bcen Ois'overed, but never arnended. The BRI-
TISH IRE OFIT.ICE has made several. Amendments, and
such Arnciidirients cs have induced a :very considerable
Number of the first MERCHANTS, TRADERS, and
•lANUFAC"FURERI,, to give it a most decided Prefer-
ence.. .
The Capital of The BRITISH FIRE-OFFiCE„ and tha
Respcaabiiity of Proprietary, renders any Observation on
its Stability unnecessary ; and the Characters of the Mana-
gers place them above pessibility of their running into
Wild or lanci.,ll Scheines in order to Pli6in Business the

turely weighed and considered, 'andtwill he -found, .on Refe-
rence to the print.id Vroposals, to contain eyery Thing that is
