Yefterday a Court of Distant. was held at the EaR
India Haute. when General CRIOOOcE wai appointed
Commander in Chief of the Company's Forces. And
Second in Council at Fos t S:. George.

Yederday a Qiirterly General Court was held at
the Ea India oufe. After the utual forms, the
Chairman (Mr. flosaskyrr) acquainted the Court,
that it war appointed at this Court to confider of a
dividend from the sth of July lilt to the sth of Jan.
next.

The Ref°lution having been read,
The Chatlman ulderged, that in confecrence of
the Ad of left Seffion, emitted the Property Ac%
the Court of Direflors had taken the opinion of Mr.
ADAM, the Company's (landing Counfel. whethcr the
Company might charge the amount of the duty on
the dividends payable to the proprietors amonglt
their ordinary out-goings, fo that the proprietor
may receive the full am..unt of the dividends;
whe:ber the Company i, }snood to kledtift the prr.ppr.
tiolate part of ,be du y fro the dividends payable
to the refpcetive pn p• ICO.TS ?
The op:nron being read, and appearing decided
in favour of the latter propolition,
The Chairman Oared, that the Court had thought
it advilable, in confrquence of converfatinn in the
lag General Court, to apply to Lord CASTLEIts•Cri
on the fuhjeft.
Letters from the Chairman and Deputy, to Lord
CA3TLFREAGH, with his Lot-Whip's reply thereto,
Rating his reafons why it would be improper to ape
ply to Parliament for the indulgence requelled, were
read.

The Chairman oblerved, that under the ebrrte •
cemftances, he thought the good fettle of the Court
wsuld fee the imprudence of any further proceed-
ings; and, therefore, he (houlsi move, that the divie
dend be fs per cent.
Whitt} Mr. liinsauctyrr was putting the spteßie,n,
Mr. Roca wished the Couniel would Rate to this
Court the reafons which induced his opinion" that
the Comp'ny could not legally follow the elarnple
of the Bank Diseßors.

Mr. ADAM Rated concifely the grounds an which
hi► opinion was founded, the principal of which was,
the reftriCtion the Company were legally under not
to increafe their dividends without the exprefs appro-
bation of Parliament.

Mr. Rock declared himfelf to be perfeftly fatisfied
with the worthy Counfel's explanation.
The queftion on the dividend, after a few words
from Mr.TwtNlNc, was put and carried unanimoully.
The Chairman acquainted the Court, that an Ad
had lately paired, to regulate the rate of intereft on
the Company's Bonds.
After the Bill had been read, the Court adjourned
fine die.

In confecinence of the very great inconvenience of
late felt by the trading part of the community, from
the fcarcity of filver coin to give in change, it was lalt
week propofed by fome of the mon refpedable Bank-
ing houfes in town, that a deputation should wait
upon the Governor of the Bank of England, to am.
kilt on the meafures necefary to remedy the ev•l
