FIRST NATIONALS
 SPLENDID RECORD
AFTER DECLARING 6 PER CENT OUT OF EARNINGS FOR PAST SIX MONTHS IT PASSES $25,ooo TO SURPLUS.

The First National bank of Birming- ham declared six per. cent dividend to it's stockholders out of the earnings of the past six months, and passed S25oOO to surplus account making the surplus ac- count of the bank at this time SSOoOoo: or equal to the capital stock of the bank. 4 good balance is also left to the credit of the undivided profit account.
 It was the sense of the board of direc- tors at the meeting yesterday. when the dividend of six per cent was declared out of the last six months earnings that here after the bank should pay to it's stock holders 12 per cent annually, the same to be paid at the rate of three per cent each quarter.
