The second ordinary general meeting of the share-
holders of the Land Mortgage Bank of India has
been held to-day. The report presented for adop-
tion states that the accounts, which are made up to
the 31st December, 1864, comprise actual operations
over eight months only, which shows a net profit of
£12,288 7s. Bd., to which is added the interest
earned in India to 31st March, £10,651, showing a
sum of £22,939 7s. Bd. available for dividend, &c.
The directors therefore recommend that a dividend
of 4s. per share (free of income tax) being
5 per cent. on the paid-up capital, be
now declared, payable on and after the 22d inst.
Tho capital in India on 31st March amounted to
£611,933 19s. 3d., of which £404,407 was invested
ont mortgages of real property, and £197,970 on
Government securities, at an average rate of 9 per
cent. The total applications for mortgage loans
amounted, by last advices, to £1,318,500, of which
£404,407 has been granted, and of the remainder
under consideration a large amount will probably
be accepted. Great caution has been used in
making these advances, and the appraised value of
the properties mortgaged to the company ip double
the amount actually advanced upon them. Every
title undergoes the rigid scrutiny of the bank's
solicitors and standing counsel at the Presidency
cities. Each property is carefully valued by in
-
Spector, Spector, sub-agent, or other competent4le
loanv on
and the chief agents only grant
the satisfactory termination of the investigation.i
The Registration Act, now in force ou ghout t
India, - also affords an additional security to the
mortgages.
