It is proposed to register the Company under the Limited Liability Ordinance, the amount of the Capital having been fixed at Two Millions of Dollars, it is con- sidered that Insurers will be amply secured thereby, while at the same time each sbare- holder will know the extent of his individual liability. The capital proposed to be called up amounts to a large sums, and provision will be made for the creation of an umple Reserve Fund, which will, it is expected, in a very short time accumulate to an amount practically to give the fullest secu-
both to rity
Insurers and Insurad, irrespec- tive of the unpaid Capital.
It is intoaded to anticipate the termina- tion of the Old Company, by dissolving it from aud after the 1st December pest, and measures are being taken for that purpose. In anticipating a successful career for the New Company, it is only necessary to pro- zent to the pubio the results of the Old Company since its establishment in May 1866, as exhibited by the following figures:
The total premiums collected
from the 11th May 1866 to
the present time, a period
of only two years and five
months, amount to

Fire
at Hongkong in Nov. 1867.
The amount now at the Credit
of the Working Account, after paying all Expenses and Re-insurances to date, exceeds..........
$160,000.00
These figures fully warrant the most sanguine expectations of success, and it is but reasonable to expect that, strengthened with larger Capital, the present undertaking cannot fail to prove at least as successful as the former one. The Old Company, when it entered the field, had to create a business for itself, but the New one, in taking over the outstanding risks and cou- nections of the Old Company, will at once receive a very large amount of premium, and enter on a profitable organised business. Moreover, there is
doubt that the risk of Fire in Hongkong has been greatly diminished by the Building Regula- tions now in force, and by the establishment of & Fire Brigade.
