Thb Crrr Bahk.—A Meeting Of The Propriet...
Thb Crrr Bahk . —A meeting of the proprietors of the City Bank also took place on Tuesday , the Lord Mayor in the cbair , when the report was adopted unanimously , and a dividend and bonus declared equal to 8 Jper cent , per annum , free of income-tax , making a total distribution for the year ending the 30 th of June of 6 J per cent . The chairman congratulated the proprietors upon the position attained by the bank in the short period of three years . The yearly distribution is now Hi . nor cpnt vrtitin Ann nf tha mntf m » nM > aA . l v « .. 1 » J—
London had been 10 years in existence before it paid 6 per cent , the sum of 2 O 002 L has been added to the reserve fund , and 1000 £ appropriated to building expenses . As far as "we have been able to judge from the reports of the directors , it -would appear that the banks have done wisely in embracing all proper opportunities of reducing their deposit accounts . In the present exceptional time , and while the difficulty continues of placing out money to advantage , too much praise cannot be given to this determination .
St . Katharine Dock Company . —At the halfyearly meeting of this company , the report stated that the earnings for the half-year -were 139 , 0362 , 18 s ., and the expenditure 94 , 599 ? . 10 s . 4 d ., leaving a balance of 44 , 437 ? . 7 s . 8 d . It was proposed to pay a dividend at the rate of 2 £ per cent for the half-year , which would leave the rest at 77 , 0887 . 18 s . 10 d . The directors intended to make the immense body of water now used for the hydraulic machinery available in cases of fire , but the expenditure for the same would be considerable .
Iixutois CknteaIi Railway CoaupAsrr . —The English : shareholders in the Illinois Central Railway Company convened a meeting " to consider the general state and prospects of the company ' s affairs . " It was proposed to send a deputation specially representing a large section of the proprietary , and charged to come to an amicable understanding with the American directors with reference to certain points in which it is considered that the management of the undertaking is open to improvement . These refer principally to the financial department .
Eastern Steam Navigation Compamt . —The scheme for raising money to complete the Great Eastern by terminable annuities has completely failed . The company are required to provide immediately for liabilities to the amount of 65 , 6661 . The resolution finally agreed to , after a prolonged discussion , at the meeting of the Eastern Steam Navigation Company , held on Thursday , was as follows , viz .: — - " That Mr . Dargan , Mr . Beattie , Mr . Morgan , and Mr . Alderman Rose be added to the committee of co-operation to assist the directors in devising some plan for reorganising the company , or for framing a new company , to whom the ship may be sold . "
GrALVESTON , HOUSTON , ANI > HENDERSON RAILWAY Bonds oxt MoktgA & b Debentures . —Investers who are looking oat for a large interest for their capital ought , we think , to direct { their attention to the issue of the bonds on mortgage debentures by the Galveston . Railway Company . A 207 . bond and a free share are offered for 20 / . cash , and to the bonds are attached coupons for interest at the rate of 8 per cent ., payable half-yearly ; the bonds are transferable to hearer without assignment . The company have obtained very important advantages , and as the line will be made very cheaply , the security appears to us ample and quite satisfactory .
Mutes .- —It is difficult to write anything of a trustworthy character about mines . There is so much jobbing and trickery in this peculiar business that , unless the public tai £ e for their guide mining brokers of high standing and character , they are pretty nearly certain to be taken in . Tho quotations and statements of business done which appear in the daily journals , are not to be relied on ; they are , for the moat part , furnished by interested parties , and , on that account , untrustworthy . The only feature in the market—if a market there be at all—is a rise in Bon Accords .
London Cork Exchange , July 19 th , 1858 . —Messrs . Huston and Son stated that the supply of Wheat was improved upon that of last weok , but there was very little Spring Corn fresh up . The Wheat trade declined 2 a . per qr . from the prices of this day week , and a portion of the supply was left over unsold . Barley fully as dear . Oats 6 d . to Is . lower for feeds , but fine export qualities firm in value . Beans and Peas of all kinds were quite Is . to 2 s . per qr . higher . The Flour trade languid . There was a fair demand for moat descriptions of Seed to-day . New Rape seed brought 85 ? . to QGl . per last , and Canary and Mustards were firm .
