QUARTERLY DlVlDENDS.—Thismorningtne
dividends which became due on the sth inst. on the several
stocks, which have been closed for some time past, com-
menced paying at the Bank of England, viz. on reduced
annuities—both descriptions of the 33. per cent. annuities ;
the 4 per cents. created in I S2t) ; long annuities, life an-
nuities, and Bank stock. The dividends on India stock
and old South Sea annuities, are also in the course of pay-
ment to-day. The amount of interest to he paid this
quarter to the public is not so great as in the last quarter,
when the dividends on Console were due, of which stock
there is a much larger amount, than of any other portion
of the funded debt. The Bask, during the whole of the
morning, has presented a very busy scene ; but the attend-
ance of the public was not so great as on many tomer
occasions. The Banking interest, as usual, obtained their
dividends before the regular payment commenced.
EAST INDIA-HOUSE (THIS DAY.)—A Ge-
neral Court of the Proprietors of India stock, was con-
vened this morning at the Company's House, for the pur-
pose of electing six Directors, in lieu of those who go
out of office by rotation, to serve the office for four years.
The ballot comrsienced at nine o'clock, but will not close
till late this afternoon. There is no doubt but that the fol-
lowing individuals will be elected, as they have nearly
all the influence of the Court of Proprietors, viz. HENRY
ALEXANDER, Esq. GEORGE A. Ronfxsos, Esq. the late
Chairman ; W. H. CLARKE, Esq. ; R. C. RI.OWDEN,
Esq. ; GEORGE RAVES, Esq. and JOHN TnoßstnEE,
Esq. Besides these gentlemen, GEORGE Lyar.E, Esq.
and W. WATSON, Esq. are candidates : the former is,
from his knowledge of, and intimate connexion with the
shipping and commercial interests, peculiarly fitted for the
office of Director to the Company, but is not likely to
succeed.
