(welled. Since the 29th el September 1,11:12 additional shares had been issued, and 19,2351. received, making the bead number 7,796, representing a subscr►bed capital of ilism,3oo/., on which 75,310/. 13s. has been paid up. The balance sheet showed a net vent of 1,9141. 12s. Cal. in favour of the society eta the 211th September; and all the liabilities of the society had been die-- charged or provided for up to that. date. That sum is in addition to the 7,511/. Ills. Id. balance of profit realised on the Alarktield estate, which stands to the credit of the society as a reserve fund. The el nil Mit tcc, therefore, proposed that a b u rins, at thereto of W. per cent. per annum, on all subscriptions paid on uncom pleted shares up to the 29th of September last, in respect of *lnch allotments have not been taken, should be declared.

The number of rights exercised out of this list is SOO. The system of seniority has been found to work well. The report concluded ma follows :—" In respect to the increase of tbu franchise, it is necessary to repeat that the society was pri marily established as a defensive measure, and they have reason to be proud that the main principle, that of co-operation and mutual assistance, will be amply proved, inasmuch us the artisan, the opera tive, the tradesman, medical professors, memberts of the legal pmfession, clergymen, officers of the, army and navy, men of science, t a e mbt•ra of the fine arts, members of universities, awl the song of peels will be enabled, through the instimeentality of this society, to obtain the most ancient mode of suffrai„e in this country—the freehold fianchise, the pin : eipal object of• the foundation of the society being the support of that constitution to which Luglauct owes its prosperity.'
