44 of the statutes' relative to the reserve flied. at.
The CHAIRMAN, is opening the proceedings, said the Wei- 64
nese of the day was limited to an increase of the capital of "
the beak, and a modification of the statutes ; and as re.
prded the affairs of the beak, he could only say that they ;00
were going on satisfactorily. (Chasm.) At the meeting in ..
Jane last he intimated that in the opinion of the heard it St.
might woe become expedient to increase the ca "tal of the dt.
bank. There were two points to be • --first, the 12,1.
amount of the increase; and secondly, the manlier in which stet.
the additional capital should be called op ;
teeotte great objeetas gt.
regarded the former Wag not to call up Dew capital at.
than could be well employed. The amount now proposed at.
to be called up would increase the .i to- tal to 81.
.
about 2,000,00D1. There were various grounds for set.
making this addition. The first wan the necessity
sat.
man providing sufficient capital for breathes. The Old Otto- at
man bank had only four breathes, while the existing back St
had is oxidate*, or In muss of formation, seventeen St.
branches, including branches at IBeyront and Aleppo, at.
Smyrna, Kara Hiss,Adalia, Varna. and Tivibizond. The ..t.„
whole of the branches would require a capital of 1,000,0001. '..t'il
Beyond this there was the nereasity of assisting various en. fit.
torpriess which tended to develops the prosperity of Miontries St.
where the branches were established. As regarded the St.
raising of the capital, it was determined to Jesusone sew set
U.
share for every two old shares. The sew shares, although not
fully called op till July next year, would participate fully in ?;
the profits of 1866. WI was proposed to acid the amount to
raised by the premiums, viz., 24 10/. per share, the ve 100
fund, thereby increasing the fund to 211,6801. (Cheers.) too
The object of modifying the statutes waste enable U.
the baud to add the premiums to the re- i;
serve fund. After expressing his opinion that the 7.,;"
increase of capital was essential to the intends of the at,,
company, he ouoladed moving the following resole- at.
tion :—" That the nominal capital of the bank be increased st.
to 4,050,0001. (101 250,0001 r.) by an issue of 67,500 shares se
of 201. (51301 r.) each. That these shares shall, in the first 8„..
!.
instance be offend by advertisement to the holders of the ~..
existing shares, at a peel:Aims of 21. 10a. (621 r. is
50c.) per share, in the proportion of one new share at
to every two old shares. That any shares remaining at
at
anapplied for by the holders of the existing shares by the
Ist December, 1865, shall be disposed of by the committee 1.
for the benefit of the bank. That 101. (2501 r.) per shah le
(exclusive of the premium) shall be paid on each of these st,
new shares, and that the total amount payable on these St
shares shall be paid at the following dates, via. • Si
51. (intr.) on the let December, 1665 ; :ii. (75fr.) on the s
let February, 1866 ; 31. (75fr.) on the let May,
1666 ; and 11. 10s. (37fr. 503.) on the sth
July, 1866; with power to the committee to
reserve payment of the several instalments in *deuce, on
such terms as they shall think fit. That interest beeharged
on all payments in arrest, at the rate of 6 per cont. par
annum, from the days they are respectively payable. Than
t
if any instalment and interest thereon be sot paid withi
one month after the day fixed for such instalment, the mid
shares shall be dealt with in accordance with article 14 of iik
the Mathias. That the new shares shall be entitled to par.
Coital. in all profits with the old shares from January, r,..`
1866. to
Mr. D.tvis disapproved of the proposal to issue new to)
shares at a premium. In his opinion if there were any ad•
too to
vantages ooanected with the matter they should be enjoyed
by the shareholders. (Cheers.) lie concluded by proposing
dt.
that the new shares should be issued at par. (Cheers.) St.
The resolution was seconded amid loud demonstrations of 100
concurrence. St.
The wee believed that the course proposed by the fit.
board wee the beat one for the company. The board 20
could not accept as Moreau of capital without 11. se.-
premium being aided to the reserve fund. It must be Ito
understood that if the proposition with regard to the Fe
reserve fund were negatived, the proposal to increase the too
capital fell to the gamed. MO

Mr. WALSER CHURCH protested against what the chair.
man said, as a threat against the shareholder, and moved to:
the adjournment of the meeting. __, toll
A SkialtillOLDEß contended that the course proposed as.
' from the chair tended to depreciate the market value no
of the shares, inasmuch as it would place them in the hands 20
of the public instead of keeping them in those of the exist- SRS.t.
lag shareholders. lii.

board as to the best manner or issuing the shares, and U.,
having been to Patio to consult the committee there, he `,:::*
mast say that be believed the course proposed was the best 70
one for the shareholders generally. St.
1 After a consultation between the directors, 60
The CllalnliaN intimated that the board would for the St.
present defer to the opinion of the meeting, and if their pro- ..
nasal should be rejected, they would afterwards consult 70
their French colleagues. St.

(until this day fortnight) was put from the chair, and
carried, with only one dissentient.
