One-hrlfonly of the ehures will be immeliately is.'.ued, a».d the Directors, having ilready apporlio. a considerable number n cecuring a large amount of important supjort, a c prepared to place the available lalanre :'» *a'r j jrtions throughout the colony with peisons whose bu'lnes"» or influence is ;alcula* d to be valuable 'o tho Company in ;he mutual interests of all concerned. The Company being thus possessed of strong insurance support, and being able to >ffer to the public the guaraot c of ample j_B*-h. capital, with thorough.>ecuritjr, will comnence business, the whulo of ■ the remaining LOO,OOO shar being r .-eived for 'allotment n succc 3sive issueß to actual insurer; with the Dompnriy, under the provisions of the Article-. >f Association, in proportion to the insurance jremiums paid by them. The proportion of ihares for issue, compared to the amount of )ounds sterlir g of insurance premiums paid, yill be declard from time to time at tho dissretipn of the Directors, so as to offer a coninuous inducement to insurers to join the Company.' . Severu^f the Directors have lad oxperienco )f the great advantages of mutuality in conirction with the most successful Life Association Assurance t-xial ng, and, after long sonsideration, the Board are batiefied Vlmt the aresent proposal comprehends the most practical embodiment of that 'principle applicable ;o Fire and Marine business. The directors are fully alive to the importance of considering in the first allotment uho >reat body of small insures, and they have ileo determined, notwithstanding any pressv c, ipon maintaining the chief point of their proposal, viz, That they will keep in hand ;!e whole of the remaining 100, COO shares For future allotment to actual: insurers upon the definite and equitable basis above stated, which places all ranks of insurers upon nn ;qual footing. The Directors have therefore salcu'ated upon the following results, viz., That the method of fixing the capital will ittach.a large amount of business, and that ;he Company will have the sympathies of the public as a Colonial institution, open to all insurers upon a mutual principle, and yet sacked by large capital, seeu-ity, and business. The Companies hiiherto formed have been uniformly successful, and the rapid progress jf the Colony fully warrants the foundalion sf aßimilnr institulion in its cnpitol city. The rat; - .and general terms of'''business of- the Company will be similar (o whutaver may bo surrent from time lo time, as the insured will be enabled to participate vs nearly as possible in proportion to the profits derivable there* from. ■'■■..■ It is not anticipated that' any further calls will be made.
