COLONIAL BANK.
The half-yearly general meeting of the Proprictort,j
the Colonial Bank was held yesterday at the Lo' j,
Tavern, in pursuance of the provisions of the chaT4
for the purpose of receiving the report of the proceedl7o
of the Corporation, and for the election of four Direct c,
and one Auditor, in the room of John Irving+,
Marry at, James Cavan, John Gurney Hoare, and
Fletcher, Esqs., and other business.
loet
J. COLVILLE, Esq., took the chair at one o'c- 0
upon doing which he stated that it was doubtless koccor
to all, that since they met last they had had the Ivilios
tune to lose their Chairman— an event which be
sure would be severely felt by all the Proprietors. of
present meeting had been convened for the purpose
electing a Director in his room, and for other busineee'6
The SECRETARY then read the report of the Diretif.
from which it appeared that the profits of the last 'to
year amounted to 16,9051. 19s. 10d., and the Direeof
recommended a c ividend of 1 per cent, for the halfll,o
ending June, 1845, being at the rate of 2 per cent~:4l
annum, which would leave a sum of 10,0004 and up"
for meeting the bad and doubtful debt account. torl
Mr. HARRISON thought that, at least, the ProPr'e.,4
had a right to expect from such profits a half-YeeTe3
dividend of 2 per cent. If that was not accos
t3n
to, he trusted the Proprietors would be content with
He would move, as an amendment, that the &glu;01
e
should be 2 per cent.

Mr. LEVY hoped the Hon. Proprietor would Itc"rdid
severe in his amendment, because he was sure it be
the result would be they should have nothing.—Vi
hear.) He looked upon the recommendation 0011
Directors as a turning of the corner, and augured so
from it. There was now a chance of the Proprie
having something.
that
The CHAIRMAN could assure the Proprietors lir
Directors, in proposing this small dividend, were Icor
sited by a desire to do something. He hoped the or
jority of the Proprietors would support the reconoAl
dation made to them by the Directors, of a divide'
one per cent.
After some discussion Mr. Harrison withdre
amendment ; and the report, together with the recio
mendation of the Directors of a dividend for
half-year of 1 per cent was agreed to.
Mec " The different Directors who went out of 0 0•1
rotation were re-elected. Mr. Cave, the late auditor, ipo
elected a Director in the room of the late John 100
Esq ; 11. Barclay, Esq., M.P., was elected auditor in
r.,0t0 of Mr. Cave; and, upon the motion of Mr. Harl.„,lo
a vote of thanks and full confidence in the Dire
was unanimously carried, after which the meeting self
rated.
