The whole assets, productive and unproductive, may there-

more than 4 per cent. ; or, if the profit shown of £46,070

The claims on decease
tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than
those of last year by nearly £19,000.
A considerable reduction, too, 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 rasnagement are less than thoso of last
'oar by upwards of £1,400. But they still include charges
incurred in the final closing of the two officeslast absorbed
by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in-
cluding income tax, is at the rate of little more than 51.
per cent. on the total income.
