In proof of the public oonfldenoo at home in the principles and conduct of the Norwich Union Fire Office, its Business has steadily INCREASED to :ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS Sterling. . , £,100,000,000. // ' The LOWEST BATES only are oharged. This Offloe is distinguished for its liberality and rtfomptness in the settlement of claims, ,£2,608,115 iaving been paid to insurers, for losses by fire. BANK CREDIT being established in New Zealand, as also a large reserve fund in the Bank in oash, Losses will be paid here promptly, i The Society's Agents can aooept any insurances, and fix the limits and the premiums without having first to consult Directors. NO CHARGE for Policies, Endorsements, or Surveys. • , .', ■ : A iOCAL INSTITUTION 'so far as the investment of its Receipts in the Colony of New Zealand, and to this national advantage may be superadded the support of a large ' and wealthy English office. . ; :; In eifeoting Insurances against Fire it is of the | first importance to select an office of High Charac | seb, Long Standing, and Stability. : , j i ■ .■ _^——_■ ' ' Every information as to the Society's Kates and Principles, or as to Special Kates, may be obtained at the Society's Offioes.

The Agent in announcing that he continues to receive orders for Assurances, both on Life and every description of property, begs to draw attention to the vast resources of the Company, and the standing which it takes among the large Insurance Establish ments of the British E/npire. Unaided by amalgama tion with any other Company its success, with one exception, is unprecedented in the history of In surance Societies, and enables it to rank with the most eligible offices now in existence with respect to the advantages offered to the public. IN THE FIRE BRANCH The rates of premium are equally low with those of any Company doing business in. the Colony, and th,e Company will ever distinguish itself by promptness and liberality in the settlement of losses. ■.; . . THE LIFE BRANCH i Offers the Guarantee of an ample Capital, together with its accumulated funds, exemption of the Assured from liability of partnership to which Policy-holders in Mutual Offices are subject, Moderate.Premiums^ 'Division of Profits every five years, three-fourths of ■which are appropriated to participating Policies.
