I beg respectfully to report that there have been held during the year, thirteeu meetings of the managers and four of the full board; five meetings we for want of a quorum. There have been fifteen persons admitted to membership, and four members have died during the Tear, viz: T. C. Hersey, Thomas Ingersoll, H. F.

Furbish and Charles McLaughlin. Three of these were officers and Mr. Herscy a chartei member and ex-oresident. The Board now numbers 155 members against 156 last year. I have receive for admission feos and assessments, and from the Board of Underwriters for the use of our room, $49,3 00.

The Exchange has at tills time 175 members on the rolls, a few of whom have not paid their dues for the current year. The receipts from subscriptions to the Exchange have been $1,379.00, making my aggregate receipts from all sources for the year, $1,872.00, which sum lias been paid to the treasurer. The business of the Board of late has been largely taking into the consideration the great railroad projects now on foot to open up systems that must necessarily be of vital interest to Portland and to this State in the immediate future and to endeavor to carry these plans into effect should engage the most careful and earnest efforts oi this Board the coming year. If we are not indifferent and make no mistakes in seizing our opportunities I believe that the next two or three years will witness a vast increase of the business of Portland, and that public spirit will prevail over the who seem to see the ghost of taxcx behind every project advanced for the progress in the past twenty years. All the railroad lines, entering and traversing our State, have transacted a larger business the past year than ever before and are rapidly increasing their facilities for a much greater increase in the future.

This marked advance in railroad business, as well as in other transportation lines, is viewed by the managers and business men generally, as a healthy and permanent advantage. Tlie great central line which now distributes so much of the busiuess of our State, with such universal satisfaction, stands prominent as one of the best managed railroads in the country and in which our people take just pride. The International Steamship Company which had its origin in this Board, is again well equipped and is doing a large and prosperous business as are also the other lines of steamers coming to our port. The trade and manufacturing interests of our city and State show a most gratifiying progress throughout the past year, equal to any other part of New England in embracing all the elements for extended growth in the future. There is also marked prosperity among the laboring classes and in manufacturing centres, where the operatives have found steady employment with good wages.

Merchants in all sections of the State report a good year's trade, and through profits were not large, trade has been remarkably steady and reliable, resulting in more promptness in paying and less losses than usual and the outlook for business the present lias not. mnra ononuenmnn Portland in the past decade. Respectfully submitted, M. N. Rich, Secretary.

The port wardens, Captains B. W. Jones and J. L. How, presented the following report which was accepted: PORT REPORT.

To the Officers and Members of the Board of 7 rade the year for which your Port Wardens were elected is about to close, they beg leave to submit the following reDuring the past year we have visited officially, 123 vessels, viz: Thirty-six steamships, 3 sailing ships, 30 barks, 17 brigs, 26 schooners arriving here from foreign ports, and 11 vessels coastwise, a slight increase over last year. Seventy-three of the vessels mentioned as having arrived during the year were foreign bottoms. Most of the cargoes ot the same have been landed in good order. The steamships that have arrived here the present winter are landing their cargoes in excellent condition, owing as we think to more care being taken in stowing and handling the same. All of which is respectfully submitted.

Benjamin W. Jones, James L. How. Portland, Jan. 10th, 1887.

The meteorological committee reported as follows and the report was accepted. SIGNAL SERVICE REPORT. The Signal Service now temporally in charge of Lieut. Greely of Arctic fame has shown progress the past year in at least some directions. The off-shore signal about which there has been so much contention, lias been abolished and we have now a sysof and velocity which answer.the purpose object in to which, may be that they are too complicated to carry in the head.

They are easily understood by reference to the card which is supplied at the office. These signals should not be confounded with the temperature signals displayed in other parts of the city, and never at the signal office. The highest velocity recorded for an off shore wind is 28 miles. For the first time In the history of the service we are compelled to record the death of in officer in charge of the home office, W.W Eictaelberger. He was a competent and laithful man, and was respected by us all.

Under him the office rendered its best service. This was his second term at this ofiice having in the interval had charge of the most responsible office in the country, New Fork. Mr. Jones, his successor, is a Portland boy, and thus far reflects credit on his native city. The instruments are in good condition and records well kept.

Dana, seconded by Mr. Rich, it was unanimously voted that the address be accepted and an engrossed copy be forwarded to Mr. Porteous under the seal of the Board. The address follows: To John Porteous, The Portland Board of Trade regret the circumstances that prevented your meeting with them, and giving the business men of tlie city an opportunity of expressing to you personally and individually tlie high estimation in which you are held in this community; but they take this occasion to present to you in a more formal manner tlie sentiments that are universally held in this community in regard to the important position you have always held among us. As a former resident and citizen of Portland you freely identified yourself with its leading business enterprises, and used your position as agont here of the Grand Trunk Railway to promote the prosperity of the city, as far as was consistent with tlie interests of that corporation.

They call to mind the many favors granted to them from your official position while here, which were never burdened with a sense of personal iobligation. Outside of your official station here you were a most honorable and highly honored citizen, interested in all that pertained to the varied interests of this community. On leaving this city to accept a higher and more important position with the Grand Trunk Railway at Montreal, you carried with you the respect and esteem of all our merchants for the able manner in which you administered the affairs of that corporation while here and fcr the influence you had exerted upon tlie commercial interests of this city. But although transferred to a distant city, your influence for good upon us and our interests has always been felt and we cannot but regret that we are no longer able to look to you in the important position you have so long and successfully filled, for an intelligent and kindly consideration of our interests. We, however, trust that with jwu; umutc ui JJU31I.IU11 YUU win auccoou a wider spnere of usefulness, and we cheerfully commend you to the business public in your new field of labor, as a man long held in high repute as a citizen of Portland, and as one thoroughly devoted to the business interests of the community in which his duty lies.

There being no further business the meeting adjourned. PERSONAL. Mr. David friends will be glad to hear he is rapidly recovering. Judge L.

The remains will lie in state at the G. A. Hall from 10 o'clock until 2 Wednesday. Services will be held at 2 p. m.

The Chinese Class. The Chinese class of the Second Parish church, eighteen in number, with the teachers, officers of the church and invited guests, enjoyed together a social gathering at the church vestry last evening. The evening was spent in singing hymns, which the Chinese boys have1 seemed to enjoy very much. They show great improvement in singing and are becoming quite at home in American company and at the American table. At a few minutes past eight the company were seated at the generously spread tables.

Rev. F. T. Bayley invoked the Divine blessing, and was followed by Chin Chong, a Christian Chinaman, who invoked blessing in his native language. After supper he read a paper in English, thanking the teachers for their kindness in teaching his countrymen about the true God, and praying blessing upon them; urging them in the future to take as their text I xv, 58.

Excursion to the Toboggan Slide Despite the unfavorable weather of last Thursday, the excursion on that day over the Maine Central railroad to the toboggan slide proved so gratifying both to the management of the road and the people availing themselves of the opportunity of enjoying the new sport of tobogganing that another excursion will be run on Thursday of this week, from Gardiner, Hallowell, Augusta, Richmond, South Gardiner, Walnut Hill, Gray, New Gloucester, Danville, Auburn!

The legislature, he said, would be asked to submit to the people a constitutional amendment giving the ballot to Bailey Praying Band. The meetings at Corner have now reached a point for which the praying band have so earnestly labored. The meeting on Sunday forenoon, led by C. M.

In the afternoon and evening the hall was filled to overflowing. The audience was deeply moved, and gave evidence of intense interest in the subjects that were presented. During the day nine persons came to the altar for prayers. Christiana are awakened; the community is thoroughly aroused. It was the intention of the Bailey Praying Band to close their labors at this place last Sunday, but the people pleaded so earnestly for the band to remain, that Mr.

Bailey concluded to submit the matter to the audience at the morning service. The moment an expression was called for, the entire congregation was on their feet. When Mr. Bailey announced that the band would remain and the meetings continue during the week every afternoon and evening, the people crowded around and heartily thanked him. Real Estate Transfers.
