Cnuizltma News.-—Our readers will per- ceive with the liveliest gratlication the sub- joined extracts, which we have taken from

ew York and Boston papers, and which concur in representing the prospects of the grain crops, in all parts of the United States, as promising a most abundant yield. The present pressure ofthe times, and the exorbitant prices we have so long been

compelled to pay for all the necessaries of

life, render this intelligence doubly grati- fying; and we may well lift up our hearts in devout gratitude to the Almighty l)is- poser of all good gifts, for the bounties which appear to be in store for us, and for the prospect of the poor béing again en- The flour Market is already beginning to feel the effect ofcoming abundance, prices having begun to fall, even in this city :-

H.mvs:s'r Pi1osri:cTs.—With a few limit- ed exceptions, the same story substantially now comes from all quarters ofour country —and we might almost say, all quarters ol the globe too—-the story of fruitful fields and promising ct-ops.—The season, South and VVest, is now so for advanced, that the wheat promise is well nigh turned into fru- tition. Indeed, in souie of the Southern States, the wheat is alreay being lint-vested, and new llotir is finding its way intotlie market. This must bring down the famine price at which floor has so long been held; unless the doniand from Europe should be much beyond what it has yet been since the war opened. tit fortunately, the Trans- atlantic harvests premise almost equally with our own.

The drought oflast season and the appro- hensions entertained during a part of the present season, are adapted to remind men oftheir dependence on an Overruling l’ro- vidence, und to impress them with the ut- ter -vanity of their own efforts, when it comes to make a blade of grass grow or a kernel of wheat swell. Gratitude should fill every heart in view of our present pros- pects. What would now be the fearful ap- prehensions of our people, if there was be- fore the land such a drought as was experi- enced last summer? We have been wont to flatter ourselves that the wide stretching bounds of our country, rendered it all but impossible, that any thing like a scarcity of bread should he experienced among us. But last year. we were pretty tliorouglily admonished of that vain confidence. Ano-

Ouvxs Jonas,

. Joux Hviiruitsv. Micuast. S. HARE“: Jossru F. Anusox, I Wit. STIADIAN, _

At it subse ueut meeting of the Directors, Oliver Jones, quire, was chosen President for the ensuing year. . _ _

A statement of the alliiirs of the institution was laid before the meeting, which was highly satisfactory to all present.

A Dividend of4 per cent. for the last half year has been declared, leaving about £330 as a reserve fund, this makes the dividend for the

ear 8 per ccnt., and the reserve fund about $650 in all.

The following Resolutions were passed at the meetin , viz :—

“ That the Stockholders record with pleasure, their entire confidence in the Olliccrs of the Institution, and their full approval of the management under their respected Pi-cside_nt in conducting the business ot the Bank during ti period of unusual commercial depression ; and they continue to rely with equal confidence on the same untiring energy, and laborious appli- cutiou,in the discharge ofhis duties for the Iuture, as he has exhibited during the year now past.” And further

7?esolvul, that the Stockholders, as a mark of approval contained in the foregoing resolution, recommend that the sum of One Hundred Dol- lars he voted to Oliver Jones, Esquire, as a tes- timony ol' their approbation of his services, in addition to any amount that mu be allowed him by the Board of Directors, as President of the \\"cstmorelnnd Bank ”

'l‘be llon E, Chandler was then appoint- cd Solicitorand Standing Counsel.

It must be gratifying to the Stockholders to find the affairs of the Bank in such a satisfacto- ry condition, and we only hope it iuny now be in the power of the Directors to atlord the pub- lic sun-li tit-corninodatioii as v\'c urc satisfied they have the disposition to do, if business iuattt-rs would ivurrant an extension of the dis- count sliect.,nlthoug|i in this particular they are in precisely the same position as older and more extensive Institutions of the same tlt'h‘t.'I'ipll()n .—— Wcslrnermzml Times.
