F4 AGLE INSURANCE COMPANY, London. REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS, For the year ending 30th June, 1866, read at the ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, 10th August, 1866. CHARLES CHATFIELD, Esq., in the chair. The Directors have the satisfaction of reporting to the proprietors that, in pursuance of the resolutions unani mously passed at the Special General Meeting held in April last, the amalgamation of the National Mercantile Assurance Society with the Eagle has been carried into effect, and two of the directors of that society—Mr. Wil coxon (heretofore the chairman), and Mr. William Fre derick De la Rue—now occupy seats a': the Eagle Board. The following account exhibits the increased income and outgoing of the year arisino , from the junction, which it may be remembered takes effect retrospectively, and the balance-sheet shows the assets as they existed on the 30th Juno last, augmented by those just transferred. By the Surplus Eurogi account it will be seen that the total income from premiums and interest is £183,376 Os. 11d., and the total outgoing £114,790 13s. 6d. The dif ferenco, £68,585 7s. 5d., and the surplus fund contributed by the amalgamated society, viz., £151.545 Bs. 61, increase the surplus fund of the company to £899,095 84. The premiums on new assurances are considerably less than those of the foregoing year but at the same tune a much smaller portion of them has been devoted to re-assurance. The change in the financial position of the Company precludes an exact comparison with former years. The expenses of management of the Eagle for the year are al most identical iu amount with those of the last. The ex penses of the National Mercantile Society will, of coursu, henceforth cease. Deducting the several items payable on demand, or at an early maturity, the realised assets, as set forth in the balance sheet, amount to £2,559,135 4s. Bd. Of this sum £178,340 belongs exclu s i vely to the propr i e t ors , £1,481,699 16s. Bd. exclusively to the policy holders, and .£8J9,095 Bs., partly to the one and partly to the other. The last two items subject, of course; to exact adjustment at each quin quennial investigation. It remains only for the Directors to mention that, since the last annual meeting the Company has lost, by the de cease of Sir William Gore Ouseley, and by the retirement of Mr. Gould, the services of two of the members of the board. Both gentlemen were much respected, and it is with great regret that the directors have to make this an nouncement. * £5,880,163 14s. 4d., less £4,898,463 178.8 d. SURPLUS FUND ACCOUNT.

One of the greatest regattas ever produced, perhaps, on the Thames was that held yesterday over the course be tween Putney and Hammersmith. It owes its origin to the success attending the Metropolitan Clubs Regatta last year over the same course. The competition in that, how• ever, was confined to clubs between Teddington and Greenwich, while on this occasion the competition was in a very proper and handsome manner thrown open to the world. Great as regards entries for the advanced season of the year, great by reason of the funds collected to carry it out, amounting to something like £l,OOO, and great in its numerous patrons, amongst whom will be found the names of the Right Hon. Lord Mayor, Alderman and Sheriff Gibbons, Alderman Bosley, and others of equal note, there can be no doubt that with proper financial sup port the first of a series of amateur regattas, second to none in th 6 world, has been produced. Necessity com polled delay this year, as the arduous task of beginning the work and starting it on a sure basis had to be accom plished ; next year the committee intend to hold it a couple of months earlier, and then, near Henley Regatta time, we shall probably have two or three days racing on one of the straightest and best reaches on the Thames. The be pride taken by the London amateurs in getting uPurt regatta may be gathered from the fact that Mr. iirtions Playford of the Loudon Rowing Club by his ow 7 a thered collected a sum of £1 33 towards the purchase.o:th%e chal lenge and presentation cups, the r emainder s ge ntlemen b°glenn' g in from the public purse by equally zealot' other clubs.

A fine race to the end was won by half a length. CHAMPION PAIRS. R. W. Willis and R. Graham, London Rowing Club ... 1 J. C. F. May and F.

They gradually drew Blear, and a clipping race was maintained past the Crab Tree, and at Hammersmith-brite there were only a few yards between them. Spurting well the rest of tho dis tance, May and Fenner bored their opponents across the water, and Willis and Graham came up level 100 yards front home. Then they fouled, and remained locked for some time, drifting up to the winning post together. Tho umpire awarded the race to Willis and Graham on the foul. METROPOLITAN CHAMPION CUP.
