Wheun the anunal reports of insurance compa- nles in this Stato wero mado 1o tho Auditor, at tho firat of the year, the Insuring and Insurance rublic noted that the Mercantile Fire-Insuranco Company, of this city, showed un Impainmont of its capital stock to tho amount of a littlo over 2 per cent. This was not suficiont for the Au- ditor to refuee them a cortificata on, and tho Company has accordingly contintied to transact businers up to this timo. It has lately appeared to tho ofticers of the Company. a8 woll as per- baps to the Btato officials, that the impairment might reach 25 por cont, In which caso it would Lecoma tho duty of the Auditor to withdraw tho Cumpany's certificats, In any case, it was clear- 17 good policy for tho Company to take somo nc- tion at once to adjust the matter a0 aa to present n #olia showing to the public who wishied to buy lusnrance. Wednesday of this week, Mr, E. F. Leonard, of Springtield, who las charge of {nsurauce mattera [n the Auhitor's ofico, “arrived in this city, and mada an unofticial call on the oflicers of tho Company. 1n the courss of the conversa- tion, the ofticors offered to have % A THONOUGH AND EFABCIING EXAMINATION of tho bouks mado to seo oxactly how they stood. This was not directed by the Auditor to bo done, Lut was the suggestion uf the Company's officors. Yesterday morning tho Directors of the Com- pany mot with Mr. Leonard in cousultation at thoir oftice, aud the eiluation was pretty thor- vughly cauvassed.

The capital of the Company is now about £235,000, and the 1ropoaition is mado by tho principai stockhold- ers to combino the iwo methodd above meu- tioned,—that is, to rotirc somo of the stock, and al8n to put in fresh capital. The Directors of the Company, some of whom are amoung tho moat salid ciuzens of the city, cxpress o purpose uot to tinker up tho matter atall. They will either roinsuro all the riska in other companies aud go out of business, or they will put tho Combany on s Btrong aud sohd baris.
