'and made payable on the 15th day of August, and the lath day of
February."
This Company baring been for some time established, it be.
comes proper to make a statement of its progress :—.
The first iwatalnienkon the shares was paid by the proprietors in
May last, when the Company proceeded to make investments pur.
anent to the objett of its institution. It was originally contemplated
i that, from the delays and difficulties necessarily attending the
formation of the Company, and finding fit investments, no dividend
of profit could take place till after the expiration of at least twelve
months; but it has been fottnd, that the company are enabled to
commer.ce the payment of a dividend three months earlier than was
originally contemplated.
As the best proof of the state of the Society, It is only necessary
to observe, that the average rate of interest on the amount cf capital
hitherto invested, amounts to 51.165. 7d. per cent. per annum, from
which it may be coatidently inferred, that every expectation which
was held out to the proprietors in the formation of the Company,
has been amply realised. By order of the Directors,
W3l. BROMLEY, Secretary.

Joint Stock Banking Companies Lave been the most uniformly
successful of any of our Commercial Establishments, and, when
constructed upon proper principles, and a scale of sufficient magni-
tude. have invariably proved a safe and profitable investment for
Capital.
The Banking Business of Scotland is almost entirely conducted
by such Companies, and the high price of their Shares is the best
criterion of their success ; and of the confidence reposed in them.
Their success has been accompanied, as might be expected, with
a great increase in the Commercial and Agricultural prosperity of
the Country ; and, by the formation of similar Establishments in
Ireland, where they are imperiously called for, similar benefits must
naturally follow.
The flourishing state of the Bank of Ireland is the best proof of
the value of Banking in that part of the United Kingdom. By an
Act passed last Session of Parliament, the obstructions to the
establishment of further Joint Stock Companies in Ireland have
been removed; and under these circumstances a Company, called
the Provincial Bank of Ireland, has been formed, to carry on busi-
ness upon the plan adopted by the Scotch Banks.
The Capital to be 2,000,0001. (to be divided into Shares of 1091.
each), under the management of a Board of Directors in London.
Establishments will be formed in the principal Provincial Towns
of Ireland, viz. :---Cork, Waterford. Clonniel, Wexford, Limerick,
Galway, Sligo. Westport, Londonderry, Belfast, and other places.
These Establishments to be under the superintendence of a
Board of Resident Directors, aided by active and intelligent Agents,
sent by the General Board of Directors, and the whole to be under
the control of the General Board.
