FIRE BRANCH.

"The Fire Branch has certain y shown no exhaustion dim-
ing the year 1866 of that impetus which had previously
brought it to a position of the first magnitude among the
Insurance Companies of fhe United Kingdom. The Fire
Premiums in 1859 had advanced to the sum of £2'8,314 7s. 3d.
In 1860 the amount of Fire Premiums has arrived at a sum of
2 ,2977 19.. 11d., showily,' an increase of £34,663 Its. Bd., ex-
ceeding the large advance of the preceding year, so that in
two years the Fire Revenue of the Company has been en-
/a iaced by the enormous sum of £66,829 17s. sd.
Parliamentary Report ot Returns of Duty paid to
Government for the year 1860 exhibits the angmentation of
the business an a more prominent way, as it affords the means
of comparison with (Auer Companies. The Proprietors will
be gratified to learn that the increase of Duty paid by the
Royal in the last year is more than double that of any other
Co pany, either London or Provincial, whilst only one of
those Companies even approaches to 50 per cent. of the ad-
vance of this Comp ny. Our increase actually quais 30 Der
cent. of the entire increase of the et hol of he Metropolitan
Office, combined, whilst of the Provincial Offices it forms up-
wards of 30 per cent. of the total advance of the other 2 offices
established out of London,

LIFE "The Reports of the Company forBRANCH. several years have had
invariably to announce a constant periodical expansion of its
Life Business. the New Policies of each succeeding year show-
ing an advance over the one that had immediately preceded
it. A similar result is shown in the year 1860, the Premiums
on New Policies, after deducting Guarantees, be ng- 415,097
17s, wh ch is an increase on that item of 21,993 17s. sd.
above the' am- unt received for the year 1859.
"But even this advance is small when compared with the
sudden and remarkable momentum which has been given to
this Branch of the Business in the prevent year (1851).
"It was not until the commencement of the year that the
Public seemed to have become fully acquai-ted with the fact
th t the Royal insurance Com any had published late in the
last year an account of the investigation into the Assets and
Liabilities of its Life Department, under a nowlform, and in
as plain and intelliodble a manner as the abstruseness of the
subject admitted, together with the entire statements and
valuations necessary for that purpose.
" It is conjectured from the extensive Notices of this Pam-
phlet and its accompanying* Diagrams, which have appeared
In the Periodicals of the day, V at it has larE,rel, attracted the attention of vast numbers f Persons in all parts of the United
Kingdom, as wed as in other parts of the World. Indeed a
-most satisfactory and con-lusive evidence that such is the case
is afforded by the fact that the sum Assured on N. w Policies
in the six months to the 3d June of the present year is ac-
tually 50 per cent. in excess of the sum ,ssured in the corres-
ponding, months of the year 1860, although toe latter amount
n Psed exceeded the sum assured in any like previous period
of time
" If this success be continued, the Royal Insurance Cam-
pany would, with respect to the amount of its new business,
be at once placed (at least with one or two esrcentions, at the
head of all the insurance Companies doing business in this
Country, and the anticipations of the last Report, to the
effect that the deta Is of the Li `e Business then to be pub-
lished would form an epoch of the Establishment, will have
a speedy and very happy realisation."
