CAPITAL—TWO MILLIONS.
FIRE BRANCH.

Notwithstanding the large accessions of business made
annually through a long series of years, which obviously in-
crease the difficulty of further advances, yet the Fire Pre-
miums of the year 1859 rise above those of the preceding
year—by a larger sum than has been obtained by the increase
of any single year since the formation of the Company, ex-
cepting the year 1853, disclosing an advance of 50 PER. CENT.
IN THREE YEARS.
The following figures exhibit the progress of the whole
Fire Branch, running over the last Ten years :
