(INTERIM SECRETARY: Charles Beid. The success which has attended the establishment of the existing Insurance Companies in New Zealand; the large and increasing field for Insurance offered by the "progressive increase of buildings throughout the Colony, and shipping on the coast ; and the growing desire evinced by the public to support local companies, furnish sufficient proof that there is ample room for the establishment of a purely Colonial and bona fide Company of local shareholders. ~ The' Standard Fire and Marine Insurance Company has therefore been established, and the Provisional Directors have decided that the following shall, be "distinctive characteristics of the Company : — 1. A really Colonial' and National position, to be secured by an equitable distribution of the shares over the whole Colony. 2. An interested body of shareholders, to be secured by the utmost care being exercised»in allotting shares to persons known to be insurers and $bna fide traders ; and 3. Careful and economical management. Tne promoters believe that an issue of 60,000 shares will, for some time to come, meet all the purposes' of the Company ; and they purpose that of this number 30,000 shares shall be set apart for allotment over the Northern Provinces., Applications for shares will be received by the Interim Secretary, at the Company's Temporary Office, Princes-street ; and deposits to be lodged at the various branches of the Bank of New Zealand throughout the colony.

BROKER : J. B. Bradshaw, Esq., M.H.R. The richness of the auriferous deposits of tho Upper Waikaia are so well known as hardly to require comment. The present Company has been formed for the purpose of developing, by improved .methods and increased facilities, that valuable lead which, even worked under the gigantic difficulties men -without. capital .always encounter, has yielded fortunes to the prospectors. A large extent of valuable ground has been placed at the disposal of this Company, immediately adjoining the richest claims, the moderate price demanded by the present holders being entirely payable in paid-up and -half paid-up shares. The estimated cost of opening these claims is £900 ; but as the tailrace will-pass through auriferous ground for a considerable distance, it it confidently expected to repay the .coat of its own construction. Tbe ground once Opened up, there is a large enough area io afford profitable employment for the next ten years. Hitherto the yield in -the lead has averaged 100 ounces to the 12ft. x 15ft. paddock ; but as the claims offered to this Company are situated immediately below the junction of another auriferous feeder, it is generally expected this yield will be largely exceeded. £Ue Secretary and Broker Blmil have great pleasure in affording every information to oonafide investors. . Applications for shares must be sent in to the Broker- or Secretary on or before the 20th December next, accompanied with a deposit of sb. on every share applied for, Fobic Of Application pob Shabbs.
