In making this statewent,we make no exception even in favor of our older local companies, namely, the Liverpoo! and London, the Royal, aud the Lancashire Insurance Companjes.” [From the Civil Service Gazette, Noy. 2, 1861.) “ Among these important institutions stands emi- nent for its solidity, as wel} as for its success, “the ueen Insurance Company,” which last week held its annual meeting of proprietors in Liverpool. -& reference to the ample report in another page fully satisfy every reader of the signal p: 3 made by this association since its foundation. Such) success is, indeed, rarely attained; aud it attests at once the excellence of its management, and the pub- lic confidence in its constitution.” (From the Liverpool Mercury, Nov. 2, 1861.] “Tt must be gratifying to the public generally, and especially to the proprietors, to find that its in- come daring the past three years has increased at the rate of £20, per annum. We believe that no other Company, within the same short period, ever aftained so large an increase either in the Fire or Life Department.
