-,, ORTHALL LAURIE, Esq., Governor, in the Chair,
'rite following Report was read by the Secretary
._ The Directors have much satisfaction in reporting that the

_ last, after
•17n,413 18p sayment of al charges (including the sum of
6 for interest paid and due to customers on
their Cttrrent a.nd Deposit Accounts), are £88,372 14s. ld.,
30trlWith the sum of £90,087 16s. 2d*, brought forward from
1 of June last, amount together to £178,460 10s. 3d.
The Directors now declare a dividend of 12s. per share, clear
of Income-tax, fir the six months ending, 31st December last,
aMounting to the sum of £36,e00, which will leave a balance
or £142,430 100. 3d. for appropriation.
tebit_ This sum. will enable the Proprietors to replace the .£120,C00
ed to., Capital Account, by the resolution of the General
eeting. on the 11th July, 1860 • and the Directors anticipate
4., the eolacnrrence of this General' Meeting in the recommenda-
''on which they now make, that the Capitat Account be
erlited with the sum of £120,000 debited as above. The
adoption of this recommendation will leave a balance of
£22,460 los. 3d. for appropriation at the end of the financial
year in July next.
Your Directors feel assured that the Proprietors will share
with them in their sincere regret at the loss they have sus-
tained in the decease of their late esteemed Governor, Sir
Peter Laurie, who presided over this institution since its
foundation ; contributing' materially by his high character to
its early success, and never erasing to take tine dezpest late-
test in its continued prosperity. Personally, your Directors
have to lament, not only the loss of a colleague, whose sound
Judgment and singleness of purpose guided their delibera-
Hobs and commanded their confidence—but of a triend whose
genial frankness and kindliness of heart had won their sin-
cere and respectful attachment.
In conformity with the Provisions of the Deed of Settle-
blunt, the Dire( tors have elected Thomas Augustus Gibb
}=sq, of 72, Old Broad-street, to fill the vacancy occasioned by
the decease of the lamented Governor.
