THE NiTIoML MERCANTILE BANK, Li is ITF.D. —The
second yearly report of this excellently.managed bank has
just been issued, and must be considered not only
highly satisfactory to the shareholders, but most re-
assuring to depositors. Mr. Alexander Serjeant Cochrane
Ii the managing director, and it is ewing to his careful
Supervision and thorough business management that the
bank has attained its present prosperous condition. This
Is manifest by the report, by which we learn that an
interim dividend at the rate of 15 per rent, per annum
was declared and paid in .luty buit, and out of the balance
at the end of the year it is abio proposed to pay a further
dividend likewise at the Irate of 15 per cent. per annum,
still carrying forward • very considerable sum. A special
feature in the report and balance-sheet is the resolve
of the directors to oarry as much as £7,500 to the reserve
amount, • fact which depositors are certain to "make a
note of," as a substantial fund of that kind is an ample
guarantee against possible loss. Looking at the compara-
tively short time which has elapsed since the establish-
ment of the hank, it speaks well for the management that
the reserve fund now amounts to £141.000; and it must he
extremely gratifying to depositors to learn that it is
intended year by year to still further augment that
account, thereby furnishing the most ample provision
loss or risk of any kind. That this wise resolve on
against
of the directors has not been without
advantageous results is apparent from the fact, that
during the year there has been a very large increase in the
deposit accounts. Looking, therefore, to the manner in
which the affairs of the bank are managed, we believe we
are doing our readeas good service by calling their special
attention to the advantages it offers, especially to
depositors.
