The foregoing Report having been read by the Secretary, the fol-
lowing resolutions were carried unanimously :-
1. That the Report be received and adopted, and printed for the
use of the Proprietors.
2. That many of the Proprietors this day assembled at the Annual
Meeting of the Company having received, during the last half-year,
various printed circulars, signed G. Sturt, and many of them having
also received anonymous letters to the same effect, and extracts from
such circulars having obtained publicity through the medium of the
public press, declare—
I. That from the information always afforded by the Directors at
the Half-yearly Meetings of the Company, and particularly after the
explanations given this day, they are satisfed•the statements in such
letters, whether printed or anonymous, are both false and malicious.
11. That they cannot too strongly express their indignation ,at these
unprincipled attempts to injure the Bank in the estimation of the
public, by attacking the public and private characters of the Direc-
tors, and those of several of the officers of the establishment; by per-
sons not connected with the Company, and whose dismissal (or
forced resignation) as officers is most amply justified by their' subse-
quent conduct. •
111. That they highly approve the conduct of the Directors in
leaving such publications unanswered, except at the periodical meet-
ings of the Company, and that they be requested to rely on the in-
tegrity and honourable feelings of the Proprietors for support against
such unprincipled attacks.
IV. That they deeply regret to hear that Several private bankers,
in the districts in which the Company has branches, have been active
distributors of Mr. Sturt's letters, but believe that no gentleman,
after this declaration from those best able to judge of their baseness,
will continue to participate in their circulation. And—
Lastly. That they hereby convey to the absent Shareholders, and
the public, their entire confidence in the Directora, and in the ability,
energy, and zeal, with which they have conducted the affairs of the
Company ; and their deep regret, that in the honest discharge of their
duty to the Shareholders, they should have been exposed, collectively
and individually, to the accusations of Mr. Start and his accomplices.
3. That a Dividend at the rate of 51. per cent. per annum be de-
clared upon the Capital Stock of the Company, clear of income-tax;
for the past half-year, payable on and aftei Saturday, the 10th day
of February instant.
4. That the Balance of 8051. 11s. 6d., remaining to the credit of
the Profit and Loss Account, be carried to the Guarantee Fund.
5. That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to the Directors for
the able manner in which they have conducted the affairs of the
Company during the past year.
6. That the sum of 1,5001. be placed at the disposal of the Di-
rectors, for their remuneration for the current year.

the Company for the past year.

John Doukin, Esq., he elected Auditors for the year 1844.

FOR STOPPING ECAYED
SIR. THOMAS'SD SUCCEDTEETH.ANEUM,
Price 4s. 6d.
Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Ill,gluiess Prince Albert, and
her Royal Highness the ofent.
This valuable SUCCEDANEUMDuchessfor STOPPING DECAYED
TEETH, however large the cavity, is far superior to anything ever
before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft state, without any
pressure or pain, and in a short time becomes as hard as the enamel,
and will remain firm in the tooth for many years, rendering extrac-
tion unnecessary. It arrests all further progress of decay, and ren-
ders them again useful iu mastication.
Prepared only by Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Beniers-street,
Oxford-street. Price 4s. 6d. ; and will be sent free by post to any
part of the kingdom.

Mr. Thomas continues to supply the loss of teeth without springs
or wires; and has introduced an entirely NEW DESCRIPTION of
ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which will be found very superior to all
others, as they will never decay, nor become discoloured, and their
perfect resemblance to nature defies detection even by the closest ob-
server. This method does not require the extraction of any teeth or
roots, or any painful operation whatever. The charges will be found
such lower than most Dentists.
