TIM 218 TATE BICCHANGE

Last evening a dinner took pplace at the London
Tavern, Bahoropte-street, to oslsbnta the opening of an
institution under the above denomination. Mr. CLARK, of
the Arm of Farebrother, Clark, and Lye, occupied the chair,
and the company consisted shwa exclusively of gentlemen
connected with the profeadon of auctioneer and estate agent.
The object of the institution and the circumstances which
led to its foundation were explained by the chairman in pro-
=Success to the Estate Exchange." From the
of the hen. gentleman it eppeared that the intention
was to establish for land agents and auctioneers a subeerir
tlon room, or exchange, to give them such facilities
fee transacting their Maineess ea stockbroker derive from
the Stock Exchange, and which various other City
broken have in the Baltic and other coffee Mama when
the agents for buyer and seller are brought together.
If it were necessary to hare an institution for the promotion
of the objects supported by these establishments, It was
mach moat necemary to have an exchange for that which
represented the integral wealth of this great country. Lead,
above all things, maintained its rank above all other derori
tions of property, and whatever changes might take place in
the funds and In other objects of exchenge, these wee an in-
terest and ,permanent value attaching to land which rendered
such an Institution se this of the utmost importance.
Annegst the various other objects intended to be pro-
moted by the Estate Exchange. would be to create Wes
ample facilities for the trawler and sale of
and to render the tone of the auctioneer's calling higher
than it at present append to be; and when lie added that
such a degree of mutual confidence would be established
amongst the v.:rione members of the profusion es would lead
to that agreeable interchange of aid, of which secrecy was the
primary element, and which was found to bee mat important
and valuable feature in other exiating inatituti he wee
quite sure that this association would be considered deserving
of general support.
Mr. Vienne, the founder of the exchange, briefly returned
thanks, and, in acknowledging the encouragement he had
received, expressed hie belief that the institution must nave-
:rt.:ailed to promote a reciprocity of feeling amongst the
of the profession, and to elevate them to a higher
Sam
in the social 'role than they wore at present suppedKlßOY.
Both the toast of the evening and the health of the chair-
Men (who it was said had given his most strenuous support
l• the institution) wore drunk with the greatest enthwasan,
and a general impression was conveyed that, of the eighty
pistlemen who eat down to dinner, there were none who
Al not feel satisfied with the manner in which the new m-
ellow Mid been inaugurated. In contributing to this success
the 'manes of Idr. Rehear, the secretary, were agreeably
surgkents.
