MEETING OF BANK OF ENGLAND PROPRIETORS.-YESTERDAY. FURTHER PARTICULARS. PARTICULARS. It seems that the shew of hands was less numerous In favour of the dividend of four per cent. proposed by the Chairman, than on former occasions. One of the Stock Proprietors, Mr.Guxoity, strenu ously urged the necessity and justice of consultine the Proprietors generally before the Court decided on measures which affected the interests of so many individuals. In support of this position he quoted the 7th of Annei, and the Bye Laws. On the other hand, the Cit.sta- HAN contended that 'the Proprietors had unifdrmiy confided their , interests to the Directors of the Bank, whose conduct had always given satisfaction. Several questions were put with respect to the present discount, sums lent on mortgage, the rate of interest, &c. Distinct and explicit answers were given to each of these, from which it appears the Bank lave it in contemplation to ad vance four millions on mortgage at the rate of four per cent. in terest; that one million and a half has been aheady advanced in por tions of from 500,0004 the largest, to 10,000/. the smallest sum that w.ll be given. These sums are redeemable by the mortgager by in stalments, on his giving six months notice to thellank of his inten tion. The sum lent, however, we understand, must be repaid by two instalments. This plan of lending appears to have been adopted in consequence of the falling off of discounts, and for the benefit of country gentlemen. _ _ The CHAIRMAN, OO being asked concerning the reduction of the rate of discount, said there was no measure of the kind in the con templation of the Court at present. The amount of the Bank notes issued, is now between 18 and if millions. Mr. GUNDRY proposed an amendment, that five, instead of four per cent. should be the present dividend, which was negatived. He then demanded a ballot, which was agreed to, and Thursday next was appointed for this purpose. Jaws HOSPITAL.—The anniversary festival of this Institution was celebrated yesterday at the City of London Tavern. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex was in the Chair. There were also present, G. Brun, Esq. M.P. T. Wu.s su, Esq. M.P. Alderman Damn, M.P. Josses Collor, Esq. J. Vas OVIOI, ES4I. M. A. Gotosannx, Esq. Rosette Uwex, of Lanark, Esq. the Deputy Chairman of the East India Directors, and a respectable sad numerous assemblage of Gentlemen of the Hebrew nation. As soon as the cloth was removed, a long grace was chanted in Hebrew by the Reader of the Synagogue. " The King," and one or two other standing toasts, were then drank ; after which the children, both male and female, of the charity, were introduced, the boys carrying chairs, boots, and shoes, and other specimens of their re spective workmanship, in their hands. One of the female children, a fine little girl, recited a Poetic Address in an interesting manner, and with considerable effect; so much so, that when the Duke of Sussex rose immediately afterwards to address the company, his Royal Highness was so much overpowered by his feelings, that, he burst into tears, and was unable to proceed for some time. As soon as he recovered, he entered into a detailed statement of the progress, objects, and advantages of the Institution, and concluded by recommending it to their warmest support. Various miter Gen tlemen spoke in the course of the evening, whose addres,es, aided by the appearance of the children, and the excellent singing of Mr. Mariam, and the Gentlemen who attended professionally, all - blued in producing the gratifying effect of raising the amount of the collection, which last year was only £677, to the suns of X 2,104. The Royal .Duke retired, apparently much fatigued by the tier tioni he had made, at half-past ten o'clock.
