ItEPORT of the Directors submitted to the Third Ordi-
nary General Meeting of the Proprietors at the London
Tavern on Tuesday, the 22d January, 1866,
rn,JOHN' CHAPMAN, Esq., in the Chair.
e Directors have the pleasure of presenting their
?Tort for the half-year ending December 31, 1865, toge-
Leer with a Statement of Accounts made up to that date.
The balance'of undivided profits brought forward after
payment of the dividend in July last was £53,141 155., and
_'e amount of net profit realised during the past half-year,
after
Payment of expenses, and after providing for all bad
azd doubtful debts, and for rebate of interest on Loans
and tills not yet matured, is £91,860 17s. 7d., making a
total of £145,002 12s. 7d. to be now disposed of.
Good evidence of the satisfactory progress of the Asso-
ation is afforded by this statement, which fully bears out
1"s , confident opinion expressed by the Directors at the
ss
aiL general meeting.

viz , that—

per share, being at the rate of 20 per.
cent. per annum :
833 6 8 to the payment of income tax : and
that from the balance te sum of
75,000 0 0 be placed to the credith of a "Rest ;"
leaving a sum of
10,169 5 11 to be carried forward.

EnT„110 Directors have resolved to commence, the forma-
eat
°f a "Rest" as essentially conducive to die best bite-
Itsof the Association.
ph,,nlaY be mentioned as an important feature that the
-‘tro amount of the profits for the half-year results from
,d continuous succession of transactions of a very regular
description, and of a nature to indicate that no apprehen-
!tan need be entertained as to the permanent character of
;,.0 business in which the Association is engaged; and the
!in-factors believe that with a continued exercise of care
dI3.J discrimination the Association will attain a position
ininferior to that of any other monetary institution in the
gdom.
