The following is from the report of the directors
at this maguey to be submitted at the general meeting on
Wednesday next :
" The accounts presented to the shareholders with this
report embrace a period of six months, terminating on the
31st of July last, whereas those submitted to the proririe-
tots in September, 1863, included a period of seven months,
commencing on the let of January and terminating on the
31st of July in that year. The usual comparison between
the two half-years cannot therefore be deduced from the
printed accounts, but the following analysis may be taken
as exhibiting a fair comparative statement of the receipts
sod expenses during the six mouths ending the 31st of
July, : 1863, and the six months ending the 31st of July,
1864

TAR Two MURDERERS IN LaiDs GAOL —The
two convicts it Leeds Gaol, Ryes and Sargiesoo, each cos-
Tided of murder at the recent West %dies assizes, held at
Leeds, before Mr. Judie* Keating, have much imprimed is
health since their trial, convictiou, and sentence. A report
has been very current in Leeds that Myers wall not pos.
ably live long enough to satisfy the demands of the low,
and that a threat he uttered immediately after receiving
senteace— that " he would cheat the hangman yet"—was
certain of speedy fulfilment. There is no truth is the re-
port. Not only is his pineal health greatly improved, bat
the wooed in his throat, the result of his attempted sui-
cide. is rapidly healing. The two convicts are caufieed
separately, and are each constantly attended by • warder.
Their demeanour is quiet, and they are both taciturn to •
degree, except when the Rev. H. Tuekwell, the chaplain, Or
Mr. Keene. the governor of the prison, is patieg them •
visit, and them conversations ensue such u arc suitable to
the men's deplorable circumstances.
