The CHAIRMAN mid-Gentlames, the accounts and report have been before you, as publisind, for some days and I hura pleasure in how pacing then on the lable. You will observe that the return on, contaibutions in 1876. amounted to twenty six per cent, and a trite over a paitse, 26.20, and that was in addition to the usual dividend, which amounted $358 a shar, and 3200 a share placed to rearre turd. The year 1877, the year we have now eporinly to deal with, is da open statemont, and I am glad to say there is raprosented in it a balance of $378,291. Your committee and the general moungers recommen that there should be a distribution now made on behalf of 1877 and that 20,000 should be car ried to reterya fund, which will bring this fund up to $930,000,"aving bales of $40.000 sfill due to Jarding Matheson Co. which
