On .-half only of the shares wiH be immrdiately issued,* and the Directors, having already apportioned a considerable number in scouring a large amount of important support, are prepared to place the available balance : i fair portions throughout the colony with persons whose busineca or influence is calculated to he valuable to the Company in the mutual interests' of all concern:d. The Company be'ng thus possessed of strong insurance support, and. being able to offer to the public the guarautre of ample ca*h capital, with thorough eecun'ty, will commence business, the whole of the remaining 100,000 share 1 being reserved for allotment in siicrf3»ive issues to actual insurers with the Comp ny, trader the provisions of the Article; of Association, in proportion to the insurance premiutrs paid by them. The proportion of shares for issue, com par- d to the amount of pounds sterlitg of insurance premiums paid, will be declared from time to time ot the discretion of the Directors, so as to offer a contiguous inducement to insures to join the Company. ••■.'. -; Several of the Directors have' ad experience of the great advantages of mutuality in connection with the most successful Life Association Assurance exist'-'g, and, after long consideration, the" Board are saliefied that the present proposal comprehends the moßt practical embodiment of that principle applicable to Fire and Marine business. The directors are fully alive to the importance.of rorißideiing in the first allotment tho feieat, body of small insurers, and they have also determined, notwithstanding eny pressure, upon maintaining the chief point of their propoal, viz, That they will keep in hand t-e whole of the remaining 100,000 shares ',v future allotment to -actual insurers upon the definite and equitable basis above slatrd, which places eU ranks of insurers upon an equal footing. The Directors have therefore calculated upon the fo Ilowing results, viz., That the method of fixing the capit.l will att;ch a large amount of buainec, and that the Company will have the sympathies of the public as a Colonial institution, open to all insurers upon a mutual principle, and yet backed by large capital, security, and business. The Companies hitherto form J have been uniform 1/ successful, and the rapid progress of. the. Colony fully warrants the foundation of a dmikr institution in its capital city. The rate.: and general termß of business of the Company will be similar to whatever may be current from time 13 time, as the insured will be enablrd to participate os nearly as possible in proportion, to the proSu derivable therefrom. : It is not anticipated that any further calls will be made. Tie applications for shares w:ll bo considered as received, and tin Lists will be closed in each Province on lVsday, the 4th of June.
