Those Scrlpholders who purpose attending the Meeting on Trims-
DAT, the 14th inst., are requested to forward their Scrip to this office,
when a receipt, specifying the number of shares held by each person,
will be delivered in exchange for the same.

It will be necessary to produce the receipt previous to obtaining
admission to the Meeting. The adoption of this course will save
the delay to which persons who only present their Scrip at the Lon-
don Tavern, on the 14th inst., will be subjected, as in every case the
amount of Scrip must be verified and the numbers taken before the
holder can be present or vote at the Meeting.
Such persons as cannot attend can have their votes recorded upon
forwarding their shares to this office, with a letter stating whether
they approve or disapprove of the Bills.
