from the provinces, has been slightly. augmented.
The reserve of notes shows a large addition, there
being a corresponding decrease in the circulation.

collections, have been considerably increased, while
there is also a slight addition to the private depo-
sits. The other securities show a diminution of
about a quarter of a million sterling. In the other
