SECOND REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
submitted to the. General Meeting of Proprietors at the
London Tavern, on Thursday, the 13th July, 1865,
P. D. HADOW, Esq., in the Chair.
The Directors . have the satisfaction of. submitting the
annexed statement of accounts, made up to tho conclusion
of the past half-year, from which it will be seen that, after
discharging all expenses of the establishment, and provid-
ing for rebate of interest on loans and.bills not yet matured,
writing off all losses and making ample provision for every
contingency, there remains for disposal the sum of
£103,975 ls. Bd.
This amount the Directors recommend to be appro-
priated as follows :
To dividend of 10s. per share or 20 per cent.
per annum, free of income tax £50,000 0 0
To income tax

TO balance of profits unappropriated
53,141 15 0

£103,975 1 8
The operations of the Amalgamated Company have now
extended over a period of thirteen months. The amount
of profits distributed in January last, added to that now
exhibited, shows a total of £153,975 ls. Bd. The Directors
consider they are justified in congratulating the proprietors
upon a result which, bearing in mind the difficulties which
almost invariably attend new undertakings, and the ex-
ceptionally unfavourable condition of all monetary affairs
during a considerable portion of the time, cannot be re-
garded as otherwise than satisfactory for the past and en-
couraging for the future.
