Thy hollowing Report was then read by James Dwyer, sq. .
"ILORT FRONI THE AGRICULTURAL AND COM-
ERCIAL BANK OF IRELAND TO THE PRO-
PRIETORS.
Gentlemen—ln presenting to yen the report for the past half
, the Committee of Directors have much satisfaction in calling
tnttention to the beneficial progress of a great national under-
pre
o,,ie•Since the last general meeting in April, the important
deal nee of Ulster has been called into activity ; and has more fully
Isith,trated the nationality of your Company, by amalgamating
alt, for the
Belf advancement of ag•icultiire, manufacture, and coni-
ese:_e ast, having a local proprietary of upwards of 500
eaest the trading and influential classes, opened its Bank, in
srtiwl with your Company, in the month of August last. It
pekeee proceeded, under the guidance of an able executive, with
ekiflee and with every promise of a prosperous result. In the
Lai 2.1 g towns of Ulster, wherein the linen manufacture is chiefly
to
carried on, branches have been opened ; but in no case has
°eon established without a local Proprietary, and a fair propor-
eo.o°f Paid-up Capital on the Stock subscrilred for ;by this means
'ration is insured, and united action guarantees success.
trialfe Banks in the Cities of Cork, Waterford, and other Dis-
yieiV Ireland, have satisfactorily progressed, and, generally have
eeet4 profitable return. In some cases experience has sug-
1° ora to Your Committee the expediency of circumscribed action,
vitilant er to abridge local expense ; and, acting upon the reports of
gale, to ins'eectore, your Committee contemplate, without loss of
ache eo ,e'erry their recommendation (where fully sanctioned by the
1,4," co effect.
°aL v, *Profit appearing in your accounts for the past half year would
eebee en much greater, had not your Committee placed the
ilk -Tee in the agricultural districts under restrictions, dictated by
N'o4rhte of the money market in the sister country, resulting
Inter. ,e operations of the Bank of England upon the commercial
heir-s's of the empire. Your Committee do not deem it within
h_ province to discuss the policy of the Bank of England, or
bp:_ther the refusal of commercial accommodation, at a period of
i,tresetire, be calculated to produce beneficial re"alts to the country
reetage; but as under existing circumstanees, the chartered banks
torririally influence the circulation and credit of the country, your
eeed°'ittee deem it a duty to be very much regulated by their pro-
eepeiet,', and so to proportion tb.e issues and liabilities, that no
PoratQuseXercise of power, or abuse of privilege by the bank Cor-
evZ could mar the progress of an important undertaking.
41tind View, Lowever, to meet the extension of business de-
ed by the increased Commerce and enterprise of Ireland, your
thjnlittee fe•
At:it to be for' the general interest further to increase
the capital of the Company, so as to render it equal to that
terditi I;rovincial Bank of Ireland, viz., 500,0001. They have,
Y, made a call upon the British proprietors for a third in-
Ntivjlt of Si. per share, allowing to them the option of taking an
both ent in the stock allocated on the Bth day'of June last, rating
nth:lock to present proprietor at par. As the increased capital
-Pete t Profitably and with safety employed, your Committee antici-
%via° Prompt and cheerful compliance 'withthe requisition. It is
ltish ut,°'Y the interest of the Irish proprietors to go hand in hand
the greue 13ritish union of exertion and equality of interest being
the Nal foundation of strength. In order, therefore, to eroportion
liie,rnYneent towards the capital stock of the Company, and eon-
*elfee: it em the permanent interests of the shareholders and the
1/4(eia ' the country, your Committee recommend that you should
• ti,l". and direct a" third call
upon the Irish shareholders, allow-
saine option as to the British—namely, to take an equiva-
tates the amount of the call in increased stock at par. Such a
Wite, promptly adopted by the British and Irish shareholders,
the, by
Productive of the best results, and must add considerably to
441142 of investment, as also to the welfare of all concerned.
▪ lee °ugh the paid-up capital (including the third call of Si. per
knee. 9r allocated stock,) amounts to upwards ef 400,0001., vet the
Nzid presented, particularly in the prevince.of Ulster, fo.r the
Je employment of capital in banking operations, makes it the
tidal taual interest of the shareholders to increase the available ca-
'ervinn. a standard allowing of perfect liberality towards all de-
°bl'erl:l:)f credit; independent of which your Committee cannot
'e•
pee.:4 the important suggestions flowing from the Parliamentary
j cnr joint-stock banks in England, both as to the expediency
wast;artge paid up capital in such . undertakings, and the no-
„errej .°r vigilance and circumspection therein. It may be in-
:eat ,', 'krone the report made by the Parliamentary Committee,
'° thatch Companies as have ample paid up capital, in proportion
Ptric,;'," subscribed for, shall meet with legislative advantages su-
'4
as trot: others, and, at the expiration of the charter of the Bank
°l (in little more than one year), will stand in a position,
Il e att.°
lank, of to protest against its
.renewal, as a monopoly of
Lle el,see in Dublin, and the circuit of fi thereof. It
eave ewre, the manifest advantage of theunited proprietors to
the 00 t' ground for cavil ; and, by making the paid up capital of
-geeY equal to that of the Provincial Bank (of whose di-
is
he Ili
ea a ght Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer was or
°tie f R member) place your Company upon at least an equal
gln
eoritst:our or p' riyilege.
b ° et, 1;1'1 !on, your Committee refer to the annexed Balance

tnePP "
te _ Publishredit, and the pressure on the moneyed and com-
te'elit, tr,s"-, occasioned by an excess of speculation, and move-
per cred, e Bank of England resulting therefrom, the balance to
rent of profit and loss will justify a dividend at the rate of five
