Since these accounts were made up, a dividend at the rate of $
per cast per annum on the paid-ap capital of the Bank, and an
extra dividend of the. per share, together E 2 a share, have been
declared on the 60,000 shares which constitute the Company's
capital, sad the same are now payabNe at the bead adios sad
teaches the Comtpan.
The dividend and exits dividend now payable for the half-
year ending Mt December. 1246, amount together to £lO '.OOO.
It will no doubt be gratifying to the proprietors to note that
the net profits for the ban-year Jest closed exceed that amount
by E 21,2103 Ts. lOd., and that the surplus of profits over addends
payable for the year 1866. and included In the rest, amounts to
the sum et Lane lie. The rest, therefore, after the transfer
therefrom of 000,000, representing 10,000 bonus shares pre.
smiled to the proprietors In August lad, and £lOO,OOO for the
dividends and -extra dividends now declared, will stand at
Eth3,013 10a 81.
These resalta are quite equal to any which the Directors bad
bagel thus early to realise, and In their opinion they satiefac-
torn, attest the seundnees of the calculations on which the
resolutions to augment the capital of the Bank were founded.
The business of the Bank, although conducted with great
caution, continues to increase in every proetable department,
sad it is gratifying to observe that, notwithstanding certain
diettubing canoes In Ireland, the depodta of the Bank there, as
well as its advances to traders and apical urista in that cone•
try, exceeded at the close of the year just ended the amounts
current at any corresponding date since the foundation of the
Bank in 1133 E—Approved by the Cor.ti.
