THERE is no branch of commercial enterprise in* New Zealand whirh presents such a favorable opening for the investment of Capital as that of Fire and Marine Insurance The success which has attended the establishment of •' The New Zealand " and " isouth British" Companies is a proof of this The busin-ss of Fire and Marine Insurance is so rapidly increasing that there isampleroom for another Company in this Colony. Largely increased facilities f .-r coveri g this class of risk are imperatively required, and the National Insurance Company is founded to .supply this want. This Comj.any is not started in opposition to any of tbe other New Zealand Companies, but iB intended to co-operate with them in" fostering the trade and commerce of the Colony, and concentrating in the country the large capital which is annually drafted out of it by foreign Insurance Companies. In order to make this a purely Colonial Company, and to ensure a large amount ot business through the influence of its Shareholders, it is , prorosed to distribute the Shares over the whole Colony, and, in their allotment, to keep in view the ability of Shareholders to. influence business to the Company. 60,000 Shares wiil be reserved for the Northern Provinces. ' The or. erations of this Company will be conducted on sound principles, and extreme caution will lie exercised in the selection of risks. It is intended that the Articles of Association shall provide for the election of Local Boards bf Directory by the Shareholders in the chief commercial centres of the ("oiony. The amount proposed to be called up will, it is estimated, he a sufficient paid-up capital to warrant the Company in commencing operations, and it is not anticipated that any further call will be necessary. Application for Shares will be received by the Secretary, at the Company's Temporary Office, High-street, Dunedin, and at the Branches of the National Bank of JSew Zealand in the various Provinces.
