They have not been hindered from this prudent course by the
consideration that when their Guarantee Account was last investigated
it was found that, for a period of six years, the Company had paid
6e8S,934 IS. Cd. more, in the shape of Premium to its Guaranteeing
connection, than it received in amount of Claims.
1t would, however, be inconsistent with true stability of purpose
(which should remain unmoved by accidental or errahc results if the
Directors were drawn from a prudent course of action by any expert
ence of this kind, covering a limited space of time only.
Before passing from the subject of the Fire Department, the Di-
rectors would draw brief attention to the favourable effect which would
be produced if a judicial investigation were permitted by legal authority
on the occurrence of fires. It is satisfactory to know that a widespread
opinion has recently arisen throughout the country that a measure of
this character would be attended with the happiest results. Such a
system exists, more or less, in many of the Continental cities; and the
natural consequence is, that the ratio of fires in several of them is far
less than in the cities and large towns of this kingdom, and that the
protection of Insurance can therefore be obtained at a much less rate of
premium. This is however, more a general than an exclusively Insur-
ance question as it effects the whole body of the nation. A wel[dgest-
ed Act of Legislature for this purpose would materially increase the
general security of life and property, and would ultimately tend to
reduce the Premium for Insurance to an extent which, unless the subject
were duly weighed and examined, would scarcely be imagined.

TIL FIRE losses sustained by the ROYAL INSURANCE COMPANY
have amounted to e318,946 0s Cd, or nearly II per cent of the
Premiums received.
This is 10 per cent. less than the average ratio of loss recently
announced authortaively as falling upon three other wellbnOwn and
highly respectable establishments Of large Revenue during the year
1865.
The progress of the Company, as respects the amount of business
effected, has been satisfactory, the Returns of Duty published by Par
lament, on the motion of the Chairman of this Company, exhibiting by
far the largest measure of increase whGb the Company has ev7, IN ITS
most prosperous times, experienced.

FIRE PREMIUM FOR THE YEAR

which does not show an advance quite corresponding in comparative
amount with the increase of Duty. This, it should be explained, arises
in some measure from the fact that the Directors, seeing and foreseeing
for some time the unfavorable epoch of Fire Insurance business we are
passing through, voluntarily surrendered a portion of their accruing
advances of Premium for the purpose of protecting themselves by
guarantee from undue limits on any one risk.
Hence in no small degree they consider they owe their exemption
from any very large claim on any single Insurance during the year,

LIFE BRANCH.

TURNING now to the Life Branch, it remains to be reported
that the progress has been marked by unchecked success. This will
be made clear by one or two statistical expesiiOns.
Taking the four previous quinquennial periods, it is found that the
first, from 1916 to 1S49 inclusive, commenced with a sum assured for
Year 1916 of.........g 23 $40. and ended the period with a total
sum Assured Of. R272, 796

the actual amount being e499, 1874 As. 3d., a sum larger than the total
amount assured for the entire year commencing the last quinquennal
period, so that, at any rate for one further year, the impetus OF continued
advance is not likely to slacken. In this Department the Shareholders
avail themselves, not only to keep up the high position Of the Royal"
hut even to advance it considerably. The result of such an activity on
their part, it is confidently affirmed, would so tell upon the permanent
prosperity of the f Establishment, that the favorable result ON the proper
ty of the Shareholder, and on the profits of the Life Assurer, would be
such as would exceed their highest anticipations.

G8S6,663 Is. 3D.,

nearly twice the amount at the commencement of the last quinquennial
period,-more than One Million Sterling of sum insured having been
proposed during the present year. The amount of Declined Lives alone
is RlS9947 Is. I'd.
IT. therefore, the result of the total five years, ending in the year
1869, were to have a corresponding increase with the previous periods
of five years each, the amount of business that would be effected in the
quinquennial period now running would be more than has ever been on
record in any insurance. Establishment in this country.
Without reckoning, however, OF a continuance OF business at the
same proporionate increase, which it would be unwiso to do, there is
sufficient in the present position of the new business to report that it is
maintained on a par acM tie largest Offices Of the United Kingdom.
The Directors likewise have to report that
THE LIFE AND ANNUITY FUNDS HAVE INCREASED BY THE SUM OF
GIO3, l46 Is. 3D.,
and as the Actuary considers that these annual accumulaions will pos
sbly proceed rather at an increasing than a diminishing ratio for some
years, even if the amount of new Annual Policies continue for the future
only the same as in the past year, it is highly probable that the estimate
in his last Actuarial Report of a total increase of at least One Million
sterling to these Funds in the following ten years, will be fully realised.
A further important testimony, however, is giving that the "RoYAL"
has not even vet arrived at the zenith of its favour with the public, by
the fact that
