Proprietors, August 14, 1868—Colonel CHARLES
WETIJERALL, K.0.T., Chairman of the Company, in
the Chair.
The proprietors will no doubt remember that at the last

quinquennial period then terminating, and that a bonus
was declared in respect of it amounting to the sum of
£208,774. The surplus fund account, as under, commences
with the balance of June, 18G7, after deduction of this
bonus—that is to say, with the debit of £772,740 13s. 9d.

more than 4 per cant. ; or, if the profit shown of £46,070
13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in-
cluded, at upwards of £5 12s. per cent.
The premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. Od.,
and of this sum £3,270 15s. 4d. has been expended in re-
assurances.
The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly iden-
tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than
those of last year by nearly £19,000.
A considerable reduction, , appears in the amount
of premiums paid for re-assurance, many of the risks
re-assured having terminated by death and other causes.
The expenses of management are less than those of last
year by upwards of £1,400. 11ut they still include charges
incurred in the final closing of the two officeslast absorbed
by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in-
