Mr. KINTREA then moved a vote of thanks to the chairman, and, in doing so, said hethought that after the part he had taken in this evening's proceedings he was the most proper person to do so. He felt sure their worthy and respected chairman would feel that in the observations he had made he had had but one object in view, namely, the advantage and prosperity of the association, and that he had not the slightest wish to wound the feelings of any one member of the board. The resolution having been seconded by Mr. LLOYD, Mr. KINTREA put it to the meeting, and it was carried amidst loud applause. rIIFTEATRE ROYAL, COVENT-GARDEN.- 1 THREE JUVENILE NIGHTS.

(Loud cheers..) Mr. KINTREA said he should not offer any further ob jection to the adoption of the report, bufbe should move as an amendment to the resolution of the chairman, namely— " Tina it be a'recommendation from this meeting to the committee of management, that they take into their im mediate and serious consideration the beskmeans of pro moting the interests of the society, by changing the name, OT otherwise." The CHAIRMAN, in acknowledging the compliment that had just'been paid to him, said he felt particularly gratified by the manner in which their proceedings had terminated. He begged sincerely to thank them for the kind way in which they had passed the vote of thanks. The proceedings of the Life Assurance branch of the association then terminated. In preparation, the New Farce, in which Mr, LEIGH MURRAY will appear. THEATRE ROYAL, COVENT GARDEN. Lessee for the Christmas Pantomime, Mr. J. H. ANDERSON. The CHAIRMAN —Does anybody second this amend ment ? Mr. BELL begged leave to second it. The CHAIRMAN was proceeding to put the amendment to the meeting, when Immense success of the great Pantomime of the Field of the Cloth of Gold. Triumph of the real Clown FLEXMORE, A Mcsmii - begged to say one word with respect to the amendment of Mr. Kintrea. He thought that the amendm-mt, if carded, would be casting a slur upon the board of management by a side wind. .Mr. BELL said, if such was the .effect of the amend ment. and that their respected chairman was of the same opinion, he begged to withdraw from seconding it. A MEMBER said he did not think the board of direc tors de-erved the vote of censure which the amendment implied. _A short : discussion here anieitad fah-whether Kintrea's amendment was in order. Mr. KINTREA eventually withdrew the amendment, but paid he should move it as a substantive motion after the Chairman's resolution for the adoption of the report Tenth Night of Grand Operatic Drama.—Tenth Appear ance in London of Professor ANDERSON as ROB ROY, as performed by him in Scotland, and in all the Theatres of Ame rica.— Tenth Night of Les Cordages Aeriens, by M.

THIS EVENING will be presented the Grand, National, Historical, and Chivalric PANTOMIME, which has been so long in Preparation,.and on the Production of which so large an expense has been - incurred, of YE BELLE ALLIANCE; or, HARLEQUIN GOOD HUMOUR AND 'YE FIELDE and balance-sheet had been carried. The CHAIRMAN then put the following resolution to the meeting : " That the report and balance-sheet now read be received and adopted, and that the same be printed and circulated at the discretion of the board." The proposition was carried unanimously, and amidst much cheering. Mr. KlNTuna now moved the resolution given above. Mr. LLOYD moved as an amend.tient to the proposition of Mr. Kintrwa, that all the words after the word "so- ciety" be omitted. He thought the proper time for such a proceeding as that implied by the resolution was when the rules—to consider which, he believed, they would have to meet soon—were under discussion. He should like to hear so:ne good reason assigned why the name of the a , sociation should be altered, as he had yet to learn the desirability of such a proceeding. (Hear, bear.) Mr. WARWICK said he thought the best course to pursue was to leave the suggestion in the hands of the committee, as he was sure it would receive their best consideration. The CLIATII3IAN then put the resoltvion to the meeting, w!ien only 17 hands were held up in its favour. Tae mu tton was consequently lost. The CHAIRMAN said their vest business was to elect four gentlemen to fill the plae€s of those gentlemen who retire by rotation. The names of the retiring members of the board of management were Messrs. E. Coleman, 11. Rogers, J. W. Welch, and Saucton Wood. Those gentlemen were eligible for re-election, and they offered themselves accordingly. The re-election of the above-named gentlemen to the board having been moved and seconded, their names were severally put to the meeting, when on Mr. C )le man's name being announced, one Land was held up against his re-election, two against Mr. Rogers, two against Mr. Welch, and one against Mr. S. Wood. The CHAIRMAN then declared the four gentlemen whose names they had just heard duly elected. Mr. WELCH, in returning thanks for the honour done him, in re-electing him a director, said an attack had 'seen male on the retiring direction for want of energy. (No, to.) He repeated that they had been charged with want of energy in not doing what they ought to have done ; and as that charge had been made against them, it became his duty to reply to it. He had been a member of the association almost from its foundation, and he could fearlessly state that front that time to the present he had zealously and faithfully exerted himself to the best of his ability to bring business to the associa tion—(applause)--and he could look round the room and find proof of what he had done. One of the speakers had made a charge against the directors that they did not go round to the wholesale drapery houses and canvass them for members. Within the last week he had in the course of his business been led into many large houses of business, and he had gone there provided with books and prospectuses of the association, which' he had presented to the various persons he had met there, and advised them to become members. (Hear.) He had never lost an opportunity either out of doors er at the board of working zealously for them, but if it was thought desirable that a younger man should take his place he was ready to retire and make room for him —(cries of " No, no")—but so long, however, as he oc cupied the position of director at that board he assured them he would do the utmost in his power to serve their interest , . Whether sick or whether well--whether pre sent or whether absent, as was the case last year, his thoughts were with the association and how he could best promote its interest and success. (Applause.) Whilst some of the members were looking at the asso ciation from a melancholy point of view, he was glad to find others took a different and more pleasing one, and instead of taking one year on which to found their remarks they should look at the association's progress in a commercial point of view Ly t%king an average of years. In the first five years of their existence they had effected 578 policies, representing 90,3201., and had property to the amount of 6,6001. In the second five years they bad effected 2.198 policies, representing 432,7761., and property to the amount of 29,158/., and in the third five years they had effected 2,282 policies, representing 434,7201., and their property had increased to 70,123/. (Applause.) Was that, he asked, doing nothing ? Was not that a sati , factory statement ? (Hear.) He maintained that the association was in a perfectly sound and healthy state, and that the directors had discharged their duties faithfully, but the great majority of the clerks had not supported them as they ought to have done. The directors felt, as he did, that the great body of clerks of this country ought to support the association. All they wanted was unanimity and exertion and that they should feel that they were all partners in the undertaking, and for each to feel an interest in, and never lose an opportunity of bringing business to, it. (Hear.) It was a source of gratification to him to know the progress they had made and to find the prospects they had before them. They should remember that it was a work of time to establish confidence. They had now established that confidence, and if the clerks would but support them, he engaged that the board would do everything in their power, as they had hitherto done, to promote the prosperity of this roost excellent association. (Applause.) Some re marks had been made about the other offices not paying their share of the 951. expenses that had been incurred , and he must say he thought it unfair that they should be called on to pay the whole amount, because he fully believed those offices had reaped an advantage equally with themselves. The refusal, however, might be viewed in another light, that those offices considered the Pro vident Clerks' Association, from its favourable position, las well able to pay as themselves. (Hear.) The CHAIRMAN then moved the following resolution : " That Mr. James Richard Lloyd, Mr, Francis Fre derick Toole, and Mr. Charles Woolley be elected audi tors." thing."

Mr. BELL moved that the sum to be presented to the auditors this year be the same as last, namely twenty guineas. A member begged leave to second the proposition of Mr. Bell. The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution to the meeting, and it was carried unanimously. Mr. LLOYD, on the part of the auditors, returned thanks, and in doing so assured the meeting that the accounts would always be thoroughly scrutinised, and before putting their names to any doubtful documents, the sense of a meeting of assurers would alway s be de manded by the auditors. Mr. WARWICK said the resolution which he had now to move was to the following effect : " That the cordial thanks of this meeting be resented to the board of management for their valuabl and effi year, and the sum of 7001. cient services during the past be awarded them as remuneration. He submitted this motion to them with the greatest c infidence, in the full assurance that it would be unaui inously and enthusiastically carried. (Loud cheers.) He di d so , feeling w e ll assured that the board of managemen t Mr. BELL had very g reat p leasur e in seconding the re well deserved th e con fi dence of the meeting, - solution. g -, e n n3 d that iejt they richly d eserve d every farthing of pro posed to be present e d t o t h em. (Cheers.) AIRMAN proceed e d t o put the resolut i on to t h e the Th su e in cu meeting, and it was carried amidst loud cheers. Mr. TOOLE said at their meeting last year he threw out a suggestion that he thought well deserving the at tention of the board of inama , zetnent, namely, the desira bility of holding a largo public meeting at the west end of the town, and now, if they wished to increase their -business, he thought the holding of such a meet ing as he proposed would lee attended with the utmost success, and also be of great service to them. For reasons which he could not understand the west end of the town had been entirely passed by. They had hadtmeetings in all the other parts of the town, yet why the locality he had mentioned should have been passed over he wag at a loss to conceive. No doubt they had now accommodation for the transacting of a large increase of business, and by adopting the course he proposed he thought it could be obtained. If it was de termined to hold the meeting, and the intention to do so were well advertised and placarded, he bad not the slightest doubt but that it would prove highly success ful.. He begged, therefore, to move the following reso lution : " That this meeting beg the managers to take into their ' 1 consideration the expediency of calling a public meeting (westward of the City) for the purpose of explaining the A sweet Place —Honesty the best Policy—Honey and Whacks (Wax)— Uising Steps and Steps Rising—Catching Bees all a Hum—lt .Beehoves y ou to Beehave when you attack a Bee hive—Swahrming and Warming—Enlarged Heads upon a New Principle- Bees-Lon ..

On Monday evening the 15th annual meeting of the members of this msociation was heli at the London Tavern ; R. H. Jones, Esq.. in the chair. The SECRETAP.Y (Mr. W. T. Linford) having read the notice convening the meeting, then read the following report relative to the Life Assurance Department of the Association : " The Board of Management beg to present to the mem. hers of the Life Assurance Department their 15th annual report, and in doing so they have again to express their gratification at the continued prosperity of the association. " During the past year 530 proposals have been received for a total amount of 100,80.)/., of which -424 have been completed for... ..... 10 have been declined for 96 have been deferred or withdrawn, or are waiting completion, for... ...... 15,150 " The annual income arising from new assurers during the year 1855 is 2,1891. "The board in taking into account the various circum- ..gS2,*ASO 3,300 stances of the times, and the peculiar severity with which the pressure has fallen upon that clan by,whom this asso ciation has hitherto been chiefly supported, feel that the amount of business done during the past year is quite equal to what could reasonably have been expected, and it is a source of no slight satisfaction to the managers that in the midst of many adverse circumstances, and sur rounded by keen competition, the Provident Clerks' Asso ciation has steadily maintained a respectable position among the insurance offices, and has issued policies amount ing to very nearly a million sterling. "37 policies issued on 23 lives, and amounting with bonuses to 10,7511. 25., have become claims during the past year, making a total of 41,2431. paid to the represen tatives of deceased members since the commencement of the association. " The balance in favour of the association is now 70,0001., which is advantageously invested. " Looking to the great and increasing competition which exists among life assurance oefices, the attention of the board has been actively directed towards the further ex tension of the system of agencies in connection with this association. " In their last report the board adverted to certain changes in the rules, which were rendered necessary by the pass ing of the Act known a s th e " F r iendly Societies Discharge Act." These alterations have, however, been delayed, from an anxiety on the part of the board to con sider the subject of the rules as a whole, with a view to the suggestion of such amendments as might be usefully adopted, and also by the legal measures affecting assurance offices which have been before Parliament. "The balance-sheet, having been duly audited, has been submitted to the trustees, who have expressed their grati fication at the satisfactory position of the association. " The following managers retire by rotation, but, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election :—Mr. Edward Coleman, Mr. Henry Rogers, Mr. John White Welch, Mr. Sancton Wood. "The following gentlemen, duly qualified, have been ropose a, in accordance with rul e 14, a s auditors for the ensuing year :—Mr. J. R. Lloyd, Mr. F. F. Toole, Mr. C. "In concluding their report, the board beg to call the attention of the general public to the advantages offered by the Provident Clerks' Association as a mutual life as surance office for all classes ; while to the clerks especially they would earnestly point out the strong claim it has upon their support. During the past year the attention of principals has been directed to the advantages that must accrue from the adoption of provident habits by those in their employ. There is reason to believe that the subject has awakened a considerable degree of attention, and the board venture to hope that the day is not far distant when every clerk will be induced to make that provision for his family which life assurance offers, and the neglect of which is so often the cause of self-reproach on the ono hand and of distress and privation on the other. (Signed) " RICHARD HENRY JONES, Chairman." . _ The CHIIII3IIN said it was with unfeigned pleasure that he for the 15th time presented himself before the meeting, and trusted he should obtain that kind for bearance for any defects on his part that they had ex• tended to him on all former occasions. (Hear.) The report they had just heard read informed them that the business of the association for the past year had not been so successful as that of the preceding one, but which might be accounted for from the continuance of the war, which enhanced the price of provisions and other things, and which there could be no doubt had prevented many from joining the association, who otherwise might have done so had it been in their power. (Hear.) Nor were they singular in this, because other asaurance offices had been similarly affected, not ono of them, he believed, having this year reached the amount of business done by them in former years. He, however, hoped that with the corning peace a change would take place, and that they would derive a corresponding benefit from it in an increase of policies. (Hear.) They had this year bad a greater number of deaths amongst the members than usual, which was a matter over which they could have no control. The directors took every precaution possible, and so did their medical officers, to insure good lives ; but these were events that must happen, and they must expect that, as they increased in the number of their members, so would annually increase the amount of deaths. From the report it would appear as if a large sum was now due to the association from the country agents, but he was happy to state that it had all been paid to 31st Dec., the time up to which the ;account. were made up. (Hear.) There was an item in the ac counts of about 951., incurred in obtaining the passing $ of the Friendly Societies' Discharge Act, and they would recollect that at the last meeting he told them that he thought the expenses would be under 109/., and it was Ora tifying to him to know that the expenses had been within rather than above that amount. He expected, and had hoped, that other insurance ,offioes would have • shared with them that expense, according to an understanding between them ; but, on application being made to them for their shares, there had been .a disinclination evinced I against paying any portion of it, although there had not been a positive refusal, alleging as an excuse that they had their own individual expenses to discharge attendant on the passing of the above bill. The directors had, chow ever, thought it right to pay the whole of the amount, . but hoped ultimately to obtain the fair quotas from the other offi of es the . oc a ll ss ew irti desirous fullest at tsatll possible times toikff!ed informationshe members their minds, and it would probably be recollected that at the last meeting a question was asked with reference to the liabilities of the association. The liabilities were then stated to be very trifling, and that the pre miums, which .were over due, and had not been paid, more ' than doubled the amount of their liabilities. The same happened now, and they were unable to enter the amount into the current account, from its being doubt ful whether the auditors' would pass it, there being no vouchers to produce to them for the correctness of the figures. (Hear) He assured them that the amount of premiums over due at this time was more than sufficient, in fact far exceeded the amount of their liabilities. (Hear.) The directors bad found that they had not been able to produce the new rules this year as promised, but they would be ready in a few weeks, when the members of the association would be called together to consider thorn. The impel taupe of them, end the necessity there was of fully considering them hadbeen the cause of the delay, and which must- be their excuse for not pre senting them to the members at an earlier d,sy. (Hean) It was alwoys a source of much pleasure to him to an— nounce to the meeting the great personal interest which the trustees of the association took in its affairs. (Hear.) They bad as usual attended the office and expressed them selves satisfied with the society's progress-- (bear)—and he was in folieS they would have the presence some time that evening of Mr. J. A. Smith, MX., and Mr. Thom son Hankey, M.P., if not also Baron Itothschild, NI.P. in fact it was Mr. Smith's intention to take the chair that night with reference to the benevolent department, should they conclude the business of the assurance de partment in time for him to do so. (Hear.) In referring to the progress of the association he (the Chairman) wished he could see more generally adopted what had in some instances been done—that of principals insuring the lives of their clerks. (Hear, hear.) He felt certain it would be a source of great gratification to principals themselves were they to adopt it, because they would be able to feel sure they had contributed to wards providing for the wives and families of those who for many years had faithfully served them,when removed from the scenes of their labours by the hand of death. (Hear.) He was much delighted to find it had been done in several instances, and that that feeling was gaining ground amongst principals, and he trusted that at their next meeting he should be able to inform them that the number who had done so had greatly increased. (Hear.) In speaking of what should be done by principals, they must not, however, forget there was also semsthing to be done by the clerks towards promoting the success of the association. To those who had not yet availed themselves of its benefits and advantages they should apply asid induce them to jin it. The clerks of this country formed a large body of highly respectable and intelligent men, and were every member to set himself diligently to work amongst his friends ho felt certain the latter would see the necessity of joining the association, and thereby make provision for their wives asd families, and were they eech to bring but one member the present number of 4,000 members might speedily and easily be doubled. By so doing they would be benetitting themselves by in creasing the strength of the association. Surely they must feel a desire to do it, and he had no doubt but that they would do it, because however much the directors might and did labour most assiduously and earnestly to promote the progress of the association, they must see that the directors must look beyond the board fer that help receseary to make the asso ciation a strong and excellent one. (hear, hear.) It possessed all the materials within itself to become a great, excellent, and flourishing association, and it only required a little exertion on their part to accomplish their object. (Hear, hear.) During the past year, the directors had circulated upwards of 20,000 circiila-s, making known the advantages of the society to those who joined it, feeling satisfied that the more it became known the more it would be appreciated by the public. (Rear.) In the present year 25 policies for 4,4501. had already been effected—(cheers)—and there was every prospect of their increasing that amount considerably, now there was a possibility of peace being restored, and the cost of provisions being reduced. He was aware that at present there were persons who were desirous of availing themselves of membership, but could not do it, from the item of the cost of the year's insurance being a considerable sum to be taken from their yearly income. Having belonged to the association from its commencement, he hoped every one would believe him when he said that it gave him no small amount of gratification to find that they had issued nearly 5,000 policies, representing isearly a million of mo ney. (Hear.) They had increased their annual income from 4781. to 24,0001., so that they had got over their diffi culties and the worst period of their career. (Hear.) There was every prospect, by united exertions, of making a striking iniprevement in their success ; and he knew of no better way than he had already pointed out to them. He moved the acceptance and adoption of the report, and that it be printed and circulated. (Cheers.) Mr. KINTREa called attention to one or two items in the account relative to the old and now premises of the association in Moorgate-street, and to what he charac terised as the s►nall amount of business transacted the past year by the society, and the bad management of the directors. He compared the amount of business done by this association with others of more recent date. Mr. MINTON, in addressing the meeting, said he should like to see the principals of some of the drapery trade in the direction, because they were large employers of clerks, from whose counting-houses numbers of mem bers might be obtained, and suggested that the clerks in these establishments should be canvassed to join the As sociation. He asked them not to re-elect the present retiring directors, but take fresh men, because they were not the right men in the right places. Mr. BELL said he thought the reason of their not having made so much progress as some gentlemen ap peared to wish, arose, not from any want of energy on the part of the directors, but from the name of the asso ciation, which indicated a class interest, and urged on them the desireableness of altering the name, whereby they would increase their business with the general public, and instanced the following associations that had been obliged to alter their names from a similar defect. First, there was the Dissenters' Association, formed upon a much wider basis than their own, but they were unable to do a sufficient amount of business until the name was changed . to the " General." Then there was the Licensed Victuallers' Association that had to be altered to the " Monarch," and the Architect and Engineers that had to be changed to the "British." He should be glad to see gentlemen from the drapery trade associated with them as well as gentlemen from any other class, but ho was afraid that so long as they led the people to believe that this, by its name, was only an association for the benefit of the clerks of London, and the country generally, they would be doing them selves an injustice and great injury. Some years since it was rumoured that it was the intention of the direc tors to change its name. He should be glad to know if they now entertained that opinion. He was, however, disposed to re-elect the retiring directors, and impress upon them, and the other members of the board, the necessity of their falling in with his views. The CHAIRMAN sail he could not give the last speaker the information he required. When the new rules were under consideration by the members it would be com petent fur them then to consider the suggestion just made. fir. LLOYD (an auditor) said he thought the other assurance offices had behaved very unhandsomely to them in leaving them to pay the whole of the expenses with reference to the Friendly Societies Discharge Act. They had derived a benefit from it in conjunction with this office, and it was only fair they should bear their proportion of the expenses. (Hear.) Reference had been made to the great ameunt of business that had been done by other offices, but he had no hesitation in stating that 9 out of 10 of these new societies had proved, or were proving, themselves no other than bubble societies. (Hear.) The Provident Clerks' Society was, however, one of great stability, and he asked them where they would find another of the same age that had received. during the year, 18,0991. far re• newals or policies. They had also a surplus on the year of 7,000/. over and above all their liabilities. (Hear.) it was all very well to talk about class so cieties, but where would they find another that was doing better, it so well as they were, and he hoped they would ever remain what they now were—" Provident Clerks." Mr. WARWICK said he was glad to hear the tone adopted by the last speakers, as it was certainly more discreet than that of the previous ones. Last year they had nothing put before them but congratulations, and indeed everything was satisfaction. (Mr. Kintrea here rose, but was met by the cries cf. " Spoke," " Chair," amidst which he resumed his seat.) And al " though everything was not now to the satisfaction of sonic gentlemen, he believed it was a matter of ? 4) " - gratulation to the great body of the meeting that things were no worse. They had been told that the business that had been secured by this company was not so large as that that had been obtained by other o ffices, but the meeting must bear in mind that the companies that had been mentioned, in comparison with this, were in every way much larger than this, and beariag that fact in mind, he did not think they had much to complain of. He knew that these old offices had suffered severely during the last year. Objection had been taken to the premises they at present held, but lie thought the premises were ex• ceediugly good. They were by no means extravagant for the purposes for which they were intended, and he did hope that no attempt would b e made to get rid of them. Something had been said about the exertions of the directors, but it innet be remembered that last year they had received the thanks of the meeting for their services; and, he crust say, he thought they had done their duty PROGRAAIME.

BENEVOLENT DEPARTMENT. The fifteenth annual general meeting of the members of the benevolent department was then held. The chair was to have been taken by John Abel Smith, Esq.,M.P. but Mr. Jepps informed the meeting, at the request of that gentleman, who had been waiting in an adjoining raom nearly two hours, that a domestic affliction prevented him remaining any longer, and he wished him to assure the meeting of his continued inte rest in the association, and especially of that branch of it of which ho was the treasurer. The chair was there fore taken by R. H. Jones, Eyq. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, called upon the ster;taly (Mr. W. T. Linford) to read the report. The SECRETARY then read the report, which was as follows : "The Board of Management have much pleasure in pre senting to the donors, subscribers, and members of the Benevolent Fund their 15th annual report, and beg to con gratulate them on the satisfactory condition of this de partment of the institution. t! The income for zha past year is 1,9811.125. lid., being an increase of 4681. :is. Bd. upon that of 1854, and the board are much pleased to oberve that while the larger portion of this sum arises from the kind- and liberal dona tions which have boen received both from public companies and private individuals, yet there is no branch of the in come of the fund which does not exhibit some degree of improvement—a fact which cannot but be extremely grati fying to the members. " The Board have to congratulate the members on an addition of 630!. to their capital during the past year. The total balance in favour of the institution is now 15,47:34. 12s. &I. " On the 30th May last, in accordance with the vote of the preceding annual meeting, six additional annuitants wore elected, viz.:- 1 Clerk, to an annuity of • 1 Widow, „ ...... 20 4 15 each. II SI Two annuitants have died during the past year, 'and the number now receiving assistance Iram the fund is 44, who are collectively receiving 7901. per annum ; and the 13(,ard recommend that additional annuities to the extent of 851. be granted in May next. A resolution to carry this into effect will be submitted to this meeting. "The donations and subscriptions dining the past year have been as follows : DONATIONS. Donations 322 Old Subscribers,...... £136 4 4; 48 New ~ 1 Life „ ..., lO 10 0 ---E5Ol 18 0 SUBSCRIPTIONS FROM INSURERS. 2,153 at lis. 70 „ 10i. 2 „ 10s.

Loans have been granted during the year for the sum of 2,523 t., making a total of 2,07ti1. since the commencement. " During the past year numerous cases of an extremely painful nature have been brought before the notice of the board; and it has been with sincere satisfaction that they have been able in seine instances promptly to relieve the distresses of those who had a claim upon their assistance, but the board regret to add that in many -cases they were precluded from succouring applicants of a most deserving, as well as of a most necessitous, character, from the fact that those who could, by prudence and self-denial, have secured this valuable aid to their widows and families, had altogether neglected the opportunities of membership or suffere i it to lapse. "The Board trust that this fact, if widely known, will be more effectual than any appeal on their part in arous ing the attention of those among the clerks who have not hitherto availed themselves of the advantages which are by this institution placed within their roach." Tim CHAraua.rr moved the reception and adoption of the report, and that it be printed and circulated, which was carried unanimously. Mr. JEPPS (director) moved the following resolution : " That on the 29th May next, or such other day as the board may appoint, an amount not exceeding 851. be granted in annuities. The number of annuitants of each class to be fixed by the board according to the applications which may bo received." He moved the resolution with much pleasure. It was aiways a very pleasing thing to be able to do good, and the more good the association could do the more they ought all to be pleased, and endeavour to increase its usefulness. In their desire to do as much good as they could the directors had to adopt a secure course, so that in looking after the interests o f the present applicants they did nothing that might in jure those who might come after. (Hear.) The sum they had now to dispose of was 851., which might appear to many, as it did to him, to be a large sum, but it should be borne in mind that during the past year the funds of the association had been relieved of 401. per annum by the death of one annuitant and the marriage of another, so that the increase asked to be granted this year was only 451. in addition to that of last year. (Hear.) They had this year had a prosperous and suc cessful year, as regarded the benevolent department, from their having employed a travelling agent, both in town and country, to solicit contributions. His exer tions had been very successful, and they had had the pleasure of adding to the funds of the association upwards of 7001., after deducting the extra expenses. (Hear. ) Under these circumstances he had little hesitation in moving the adoption of the resolution. Mr. PRICE seconded the motion. Mr. LLOYD reminded the meeting that last year an amendment was moved in opposition to a similar resolu tion to that now proposed, but withdrawn in conse quence of the board undertaking to bear the suggestion it contained in mind, and act upon it for the future. He wished now to know what amount in excess of the in• terest on their funded property these annuities would give, because they should not give annuities beyond the amount of interest they received from the fund. The CHAIRMAN said the annuities, including the 851. now proposed, amounted to MN., and the interest on the vested money to 5601. If they took 491/. from the subscriptions, and 5831. from the insurers, it would give 1,0741. After deducting the 3001. required to make up the above sure, there was a balance of 7001. to go to capital. He thought the above amount was not too much to take from the premiums to go towards annui ties. Mr. LLOYD called attention to the propriety of the association purchasing a nomination to one of the orphan schools for distressed orphan children of deceased mem bers, which would be similar to an amount given away in an annuity, but more to the advantage of both the association and the annuitants. (Hear.) They had only given away the paltry sum this year of 911. amongst distressed clerks. He directed attention to a card that had been circulated amongst the members soliciting their suffrages on behalf of a widow whose husband had been 50 years in employ as a ship-broker. He thought it was a disgrace on the part of that firm that after a man had worked for them half a century his widow should be obliged to have recourse to that association. He hoped the chairman would give them the name of the firm alluded to. Mr. JEPPS said that the board, in considering this subject, agreed with the last speaker that something should be done to limit the number of annuitants, and to approximate the a mount to be paid to the income of the vested capital, and it was with those views that there bad been a diminution in the number of annui ties voted last year and this. He hoped the time would soon a rrive when they would he in the position Mr. Lloyd and he (Mr. Jepps) wished to see. It was but just to state that in every ease that had been brought befard the board requiring assistance relief had been ful'y and adequately granted, and to such an extent as to call forth the thanks of the recipients. • The CHAIRMAN said the directors had made applica tions to several orphan cchools to know the sum they would require for a presentation. Tne Infant Orphau Society wanted 250 guineas for a life presentation for one child, the British Orphan Society 2401., the Lon don Orphan Society 1001. for each child, or 3001. for a life presentation, and St. Ann's school 250 guineas. The board thought these such large sums that they had hesi tated about purchasing them. A difficulty had also presented itself in whose name it should be perchased , who should have the nomination, and how the child should be selected for nomination. Mr. WARWICK said that seven-tenths of the members had no doubt been induced to become such from the fact that a d e n ce w of their being able on low terms to insure annuities to their widows, and the board ought to be exceedingly cautious how they acted so as not diminishetailenthe e() n at traction, and thereby materially is and considered it of the members of that department, merely to increase the amount of money to be devoted to temporary assist ance, (Hear.) He thought they . had committed an asked for. oniterrorliglitih grantingve grantingb been tlt t two ouo insteadany wisera annuities, fourtt e h s e annuitiera as now Mr. COLEMAN (director) reminded the last speaker that there was a balance of 700/, on the year's account to ho invested towards meeting these charges, and they should recollect that as they increased their vested capi tal so they increased their income. He reminded them that they had 2,9191. now out on loans, which was an important branch of their operations, and one of which th e board knew its full value, Mr. WELCH moved, and Mr. JEPPS seconded, a vote of thanks to the trustees and treasurer, which was car ried unanimously, 1 - ) Aw 80 -N moved, as the next resolution, a vote of thanks to the auditors of this department, which was also unanimously carried. The thanks of the meeting having been awarded by acclamation to the chairman and acknowledged by that gentleman, the meeting separated.
