              HARLEYSVILLE NATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial  statements  contain  all  adjustments,  consisting  only  of normal
recurring  adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
position  of  Harleysville  National  Corporation  (the "Corporation") and its
wholly  owned  subsidiaries  -  Harleysville  National  Bank and Trust Company
("Harleysville"),  The  Citizens  National  Bank  of Lansford ("Citizens") and
Security  National Bank ("Security") (collectively, the "Banks")  - as of June
30,  1996,  and the results of its operations and cash flows for the six month
periods  ended  June 30, 1996 and 1995.  Prior year amounts have been restated
to  incorporate  the acquisition of Farmers & Merchants Bank (see note five). 
It is suggested that these unaudited consolidated financial statements be read
in  conjunction  with  the  audited  consolidated  financial statements of the
Corporation  and  the notes thereto set forth in the Corporation's 1995 annual
report.

The  results  of operations for the six and three month periods ended June 30,
1996 and 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the  full  year.

NOTE  2  -  Income  tax  expense  is less than the amount calculated using the
statutory tax rate primarily the result of tax exempt income earned from state
and  municipal  securities  and  loans.

NOTE  3  - The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended
by  SFAS  No.  118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income
Recognition and Disclosures," on January 1, 1995.   This new standard requires
that  a  creditor  measure  impairment  based on the present value of expected
future  cash  flows  discounted  at the loan's effective interest rate, except
that  as  a  practical expedient, a creditor may measure impairment based on a
loan's  observable  market  price,  or the fair value of the collateral if the
loan  is  collateral  dependent.    Regardless  of  the  measurement method, a
creditor  must  measure  impairment  based on the fair value of the collateral
when  the  creditor determines that foreclosure is probable.   The adoption of
SFAS  No.  114,  as amended by SFAS No. 118 on January 1, 1995, did not have a
material  impact  on  the  Corporation's  liquidity, results of operations and
capital  resources.

NOTE  4  -  In  October, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
SFAS  No.  123,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based  Compensation."  This statement
requires a fair value approach to valuing compensation expense associated with
stock  options and employee stock purchase plans.   This statement encourages,
but does not require, the use of this method for financial statement purposes.
 Companies  that  do not elect to adopt this statement for financial statement
purposes  are required to present pro-forma footnote disclosures of net income
and earnings per share as if the fair value approach were used.  Statement 123
is effective for the Corporation in 1996 and will be applicable to all options
granted  after  January  1,  1995.  Management intends to adopt the disclosure
requirements  of this statement only and, accordingly, there will be no impact
on  the  consolidated  financial statements other than additional disclosures.

NOTE  5  -  On  March  1, 1996, the Corporation consummated the acquisition of
Farmers  &  Merchants  Bank (Honesdale, PA.) ("Farmers").  The acquisition was
pursuant  to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and an Agreement and Plan
of  Merger  which was executed on September 7, 1995.  The agreements delineate
the terms of the combination.  The shareholders of Farmers approved the merger
at  a meeting of shareholders on January 31, 1996.   For each share of Farmers
common stock outstanding, 0.6190 shares of the Corporation's common stock were
issued  at  the  closing  on  March 1, 1996.   As a result of the transaction,
438,262  new  shares of Harleysville National Corporation, par value $1.00 per
share,  were  issued  on  March 1, 1996 pursuant to Registration Statement No.
33-65021 filed with the SEC and which was effective January 2, 1996.  Farmers'
banking operations were merged into those of Citizens.  The Farmers merger was
accounted  for  on  a  pooling-of-interests  basis.

NOTE  6  -  On  May  9,  1996, the Board of Directors of Harleysville National
Corporation  declared  a 5% stock dividend (five shares of common stock for
each  100  shares  of common stock outstanding held) that was payable June 28,
1996,  to  shareholders  of  record  June  14,  1996.

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS  OF  OPERATIONS

     Consolidated  net income for the first six months of 1996 was $7,029,000,
an  increase  of  $828,000,  or  13.4%,  over the first six months of 1995 net
income  of  $6,201,000.    Earnings per share for the first six months of 1996
were  $1.05,  compared  to $.93 in the first six months of 1995.  Consolidated
net  income  for  the  second  quarter  of 1996 was $3,644,000, an increase of
$438,000, or 13.7%,  over the second quarter of 1995 net income of $3,206,000.
 Earnings  per  share for the second quarter of 1996 of $0.55 increased $0.07,
or  14.6%  ,  over  the  second  quarter  of 1995 earnings per share of $0.48.

     For  the six months ended June 30, 1996, the annualized return on average
assets  and  the annualized return on average shareholders' equity  were 1.48%
and  15.86%, respectively.  For the same period in 1995, the annualized return
on average assets was 1.41% and the annualized return on average shareholders'
equity  was  15.72%.  For the three months ended June 30, 1996, the annualized
return  on  average  assets was 1.51% compared to 1.44% for the same period of
1995, and the annualized return on average shareholders' equity was 16.23% for
the  second  quarter  of  1996  and  15.83%  for  the  second  period of 1995.

     Net  income  is  affected by five major elements: net interest income, or
the  difference  between  interest  income earned on loans and investments and
interest  expense  paid on deposits and borrowed funds; the provision for loan
losses,  or  the  amount  added  to  the  allowance for loan losses to provide
reserves  for future losses on loans; other operating income, which is made up
primarily  of  certain  fees,  trust income and gains and losses from sales of
securities;  other operating expenses, which consist primarily of salaries and
other  operating expenses and income taxes.  Each of these major elements will
be  reviewed  in  more  detail  in  the  following  discussion.

NET  INTEREST  INCOME  AND  RELATED  ASSETS  AND  LIABILITIES

     Net  interest  income  for  the  first  six months of 1996 of $20,834,000
increased  $1,034,000, or 5.2%, over the first six months of 1995 net interest
income  of  $19,800,000.    Net interest income for the second quarter of 1996
increased  by  $407,000,  or  4.1%,  over  the  second  quarter  of  1995.  As
illustrated in the table on the next page, the primary source of this increase
was  a  rise  in  interest  income  resulting  from increases to earning asset
volumes in the first six months of 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. 
The  increase  in  interest  income was partially offset by a rise in interest
expense, primarily led by an increase in time deposit interest expense related
to  higher  volumes  and  rates.

     The  rate-volume  variance  analysis  set  forth in the table on the next
page,  which is computed on a tax-equivalent basis (tax rate of 35%), analyzes
changes  in  net  interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 over 
June  30,  1995  and the three months ended June 30, 1996 over June 30 1995 by
their  rate  and  volume  components.

    *Tax Equivalent Basis
</TABLE>



     Taxable-equivalent  net interest income was $21,965,000 for the first six
months of 1996, compared to $20,610,000 for the same period in 1995, a 6.6% or
$1,355,000  increase.  This increase in taxable-equivalent net interest income
was  due  to  a  $1,453,000  increase  related  to volume, offset by a $98,000
decrease  related to interest rates.  Total taxable-equivalent interest income
grew  $2,791,000,  the  result  of  the  higher  volumes in each earning asset
category.    Average  year-to-date earning assets increased to $905,386,000 at
June  30,  1996  from  $831,137,000  at  June  30,  1995,  a  8.9%  increase.

            Total  interest  expense  grew $1,436,000 during the first half of
1996,  compared  to  the same period in 1995.  This growth was principally the
result  of  both higher time deposit rates and volumes.  The volume of average
time  deposits increased  $41,351,000, or 14.1% during the first half of 1996,
compared  to  the  first  half  of  1995.   Also contributing to the growth in
interest  expense  were  increases  in savings deposits and other borrowing of
$7,284,000  and  $3,034,000,  respectively.   Other borrowings include Federal
Funds  purchased,  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank borrowings, securities sold under
agreements  to  repurchase  and  U.  S.  Treasury  notes.

             Taxable-equivalent  net  interest  income  of  $11,043,000  was
$603,000,  or  5.8%  higher  for  the  second  quarter  of  1996,  compared to
$10,440,000  for  the  same  period in 1995.   Interest income grew $1,010,000
during  this  period,  as  a  result of an increase in earning asset volumes. 
Second quarter average earning assets grew $72,456,000, compared to the second
quarter  of 1995.   This growth included a $36,929,000 rise in investments and
a  $35,075,000  increase in loans.   The increase in the interest income was
partially  offset  by  a  $407,000 rise in interest expense.  Increases in all
deposit  category  balances and an increase in time deposit rates, contributed
to  this  increase in interest expense.  Nonaccruing loans are included in the
average  balance  yield  calculations,  but the average nonaccruing loans were
insignificant  and  had  no  material  effect  on  the  results.    Variances
attributable  to  both  rate  and  volume  are  included in the volume column.

NET  INTEREST  MARGIN

     The net interest margin was 4.85% for the six month period ended June 30,
1996,  a  decrease  of .11% from the 4.96% net interest margin for the first

                                   PAGE 8

half  of  1995.   The yield earned on earning assets of 8.19% during the first
half  of  1996 was lower than the 8.25% earned during the first half of 1995. 
This  drop  in  yield  is  due to the lower interest rate environment in 1996,
compared  to  1995.    The 4.14% average interest rate paid on deposits during
the  first  half  of  1996  increased from the 4.03% rate paid during the same
period  in  1995.  The increase in the rate is due to the higher rates paid on
time  deposits.     The net interest margin was 4.83% in the second quarter of
1996,  a  .13%  decrease  from  the  4.96% net interest margin recorded in the
second  quarter of 1995.  The Banks have been able to effectively match assets
and  liabilities  and  maintain  a  consistent percentage of earning assets to
total  assets.

PROVISION  FOR  LOAN  LOSSES

     The  provision  is  based on management's analysis of the adequacy of the
allowance  for loan losses.  In its evaluation, management considers past loan
experience,  overall  characteristics  of the loan portfolio, current economic
conditions and other relevant factors.  Based on the latest monthly evaluation
of  potential loan losses, management currently believes that the allowance is
adequate  to  absorb  known  and  inherent  losses  in  the  loan  portfolio. 
Ultimately,  however,  the adequacy of the allowance is largely dependent upon
the  economy,  a  factor beyond the Corporation's control.  With this in mind,
additions  to the allowance for loan losses may be required in future periods,
especially  if  economic  trends worsen or certain borrowers' ability to repay
declines.

     For  the  first  six  months  of  1996  the provision for loan losses was
$1,055,000, compared to $1,054,000 for the same period in 1995.  The loan loss
reserve grew 14.7% from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996.   Net charge offs were
$452,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared with $51,000 for the
six  months  ended  June 30, 1995.  The net loans charged off during the first
six  months  of 1996 were attributed to all loan categories.  The ratio of the
allowance  for  loan losses to loans increased to 1.60% at June 30, 1996, from
1.58%  at  December  31,  1995.

</TABLE>



     Nonperforming  assets  (nonaccruing  loans, net assets in foreclosure and
troubled  debt  restructured  loans)  were 1.93% of total loans and net assets
acquired  in  foreclosure at June 30, 1996,  compared to 1.79% at December 31,
1995 and .85% at June 30, 1995.  The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to
non-performing assets was 83.9% at June 30, 1996 compared to 86.3% at December
31,  1995  and  178.4%  at  June  30,  1995.

     Nonaccruing loans at June 30, 1996 of $9,612,000, increased $557,000 from
the  December  31,  1995  level  of $9,055,000.  Approximately  $7,132,000, or
74.2%, of total nonaccruing loans are attributable to two unrelated commercial
borrowers  at  June  30,  1996.   The approximate amount of these two loans at
December  31, 1995 was $6,972,000, or 77.0%, of total nonaccruing loans.   One
borrower  has one loan in the amount of $5,242,000.  This loan is well secured
principally  by  real estate.   This loan relates to a real estate development
project.    The other borrower has two loans in the aggregate principal amount
of $1,890,000.  These two loans are well secured  principally by real estate. 
These  two  loans  relate  to  a restaurant.   Management continues to monitor
these  loans,  and  efforts  to work out each of these loans are proceeding as
quickly  as  administrative  and  legal  constraints  permit.     The level of
nonaccruing  loans  was  $2,667,000  at  June  30,  1995.

      Net  assets  in  foreclosure totaled  $1,933,000 as of  June 30,
1996,  an  increase of  $713,000, or 58.4%, from the December 31, 1995 balance
of  $1,220,000.  During  the first six months of 1996, transfers from loans to
assets in foreclosure were $911,000, payments on foreclosed properties totaled
$87,000  and  write  downs  of  assets  in  foreclosure equaled $111,000.  The
$911,000  in  loans  transferred to assets in foreclosure included $387,000 of
mortgage  loans,  $85,000 of commercial loans and $439,000 of loans associated
with  consumer  loans.    The balance of net assets in foreclosure at June 30,
1995  was  $610,000.   Efforts to liquidate assets acquired in foreclosure are
proceeding as quickly as potential buyers can be located and legal constraints
permit.  Generally accepted accounting principles require foreclosed assets to
be  carried  at  the  lower of cost (lesser of carrying value of asset or fair
value  at  date  of  acquisition)  or  estimated  fair  value.

     As of  June 30, 1996, there were three unrelated  borrowers with troubled
debt  restructured  loans  totaling  $1,115,000,  compared  with a balance of 
$1,183,000  as of December 31, 1995 and $1,854,000 at June 30, 1995. All three
customers  were  complying  with  the  restructured terms as of June 30, 1996.

     Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are loans that
are  generally well-secured and expected to be restored to a current status in
the  near  future.    As  of June 30, 1996, loans past due 90 days or more and
still  accruing  interest  were  $1,988,000,    compared  to  $1,553,000 as of
December  31,  1995  and  $1,410,000  as  of  June  30,  1995.

</TABLE>



    The  Banks' policy for interest income recognition on impaired loans is to
recognize  income  on  restructured loans under the accrual method.  The Banks
recognize  income  on nonaccrual loans under the cash basis when the loans are
both  current  and  the  collateral  on  the  loan  is sufficient to cover the
outstanding  obligation  to the Banks.  The Banks will not recognize income if
these  factors  do  not  exist.

$404,000, or 20.1%, from $2,012,000 at June 30, 1995 to $2,416,000 at June 30,
1996.      This  rise  in  other  income is primarily the result of a $155,000
increase  in  trust income, a $135,000 growth in service charges and a $53,000
reduction  in security losses.  The second quarter 1996 other operating income
of  $1,187,000  was  $88,000,  or  8.0% higher than the second quarter of 1995
other  operating  income  of $1,099,000.  This increase was primarily due to a
$77,000 increase in service charges and a $49,000 rise in other income, offset
by  an  increase  in  security  losses  of  $40,000.

     Both  the  year-to-date  $135,000 increase and the second quarter $77,000
rise  in  service  charges are the result of higher overdraft fees and service
fees  on  checking accounts.  The Corporation recorded a $119,000 net security
loss  during  the first six months of 1996, compared to a net loss of $172,000
for  the  same  period in 1995.   The 1996 second quarter net security loss of
$69,000  was greater than the $29,000 net security loss recorded in the second
quarter  of 1995.  From time to time, the Corporation sells securities to fund
the purchase of other securities in an effort to enhance the overall return of
the  portfolio  and  to  fund  loan  demand.

     Income  from  the  Trust  and  Financial  Services  Department  increased
$155,000,  or  29.2%,  in  the  first six months of 1996, compared to the same
period  in 1995.  This was the result of both an increase in the book value of
trust  assets  of  26.3%  from  June  30,  1995  to  June  30,  1996  and  the
Corporation's  continuing  emphasis  on  marketing  the  Trust  and  Financial
Services  Department's  products  and  services.  Trust and Financial Services
Department  income  in  the  second  quarter of 1996 was slightly ahead of the
second quarter of 1995.  Other income for the first six months of 1996 and for
the  second  quarter  of  1996  increased  $61,000  and $49,000, respectively,
compared  to  the  same  periods  in 1995.  These increases were due to higher
leasing  fees  and  a  rise  in  credit  card  fees.

</TABLE>

     Other  operating expenses for the first six months of 1996 of $12,397,000
increased    $443,000,  or  3.7%,  from the $11,954,000 for the same period in
1995.    The  rise  in  operating  expenses was largely due to higher expenses
related  to  three new branches opened after June 30, 1995 and one that opened
during May 1995.  Also contributing to this rise were increases in legal fees,
consulting  fees  and  expenses  related to the overall growth of the Banks.  
These  increases  were  partially offset by a reduction in the Federal Deposit
Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC")  premium.    The second quarter of 1996 other
operating expenses of $6,076,000 increased $20,000, over the second quarter of
1995  other  operating  expense  of  $6,056,000.

     Employee  salaries  increased  $573,000, or 12.9% from $4,455,000 for the
first  six  months  of  1995  to $5,028,000 for the same period in 1996.   The
salary  increase directly related to the staffing of the four new branches was
$230,000.  The  remaining  increase  in  salaries  reflects  cost  of  living
increases,  merit  increases  and additional staff necessitated by current and
planned  future growth.  Employee benefits of $1,725,000 expensed in the first
six  months  of 1996 increased slightly, from the $1,724,000 employee benefits
expensed  during the same period in 1995.  This small growth is the result of 
the  tax  expense  associated  with  stock  options exercised during the first
quarter  of  1995, being equal to the increase in employee benefits associated
with  the  new  branches and normal salary increases during 1996.  The $33,000
growth in employee benefits expense in the second quarter of 1996, compared to
1995  is  primarily  due  to  the  new  branches.

     Net  occupancy expense increased $149,000, or 19.7%, from $757,000 in the
first  six  months  of  1995 to $906,000 in the first six months of 1996.  The
four  new branches were responsible for $94,000 of this increase.  The $65,000
increase  in occupancy expenses in the second quarter of 1996, compared to the
same  period  in 1995, is primarily due to the $38,000 associated with the new
branches.    Equipment  expense increased  $130,000, or 15.0% during the first
six months of 1996, compared to the same period in 1995.  The first six months
of  1996  equipment expenses related to the new branches totaled $61,000.  The
remainder  of  this rise is due to both equipment depreciation and maintenance
associated with planned increased data processing capabilities.  The increased
data processing capabilities include modernizing our branches through platform
automation  and  teller terminals, and the ongoing updating of data processing
equipment  to  manage  the  rise  in  volume  related  to  the  growth  of the
Corporation.    Equipment expenses grew $41,000 in the second quarter of 1996,
compared  to  the  same  quarter  in  1995.

                                  PAGE 12

     During  the  third  quarter  of  1995,  the  FDIC confirmed that the Bank
Insurance  Fund  was fully recapitalized at the end of May 1995.  As a result,
the  new lower premium rates were made retroactive to June 1, 1995.  The first
half  of  1996 FDIC premium expense was $87,000, compared to the first half of
1995  premium  expense  of $835,000.   The second quarter of 1996 FDIC premium
was  $43,000  and  the  second  quarter  of  1995  FDIC premium was $418,000. 
Congress  is  also  considering  a  variety  of  proposals to remedy the large
disparity  of  insurance  premiums  paid  by savings and loan associations for
deposit  insurance  under  the  Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund ("SAIF")
administered  by  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC")  in
comparison  to the premiums paid by banks for deposit insurance under the Bank
Insurance Fund ("BIF") also administered by the FDIC.  Management is unable to
assess  the exact cost associated with any of these proposals, but one or more
of these proposals should result in an increase of FDIC premiums in the future
and/or  the  payment  of  some  type  of  special  assessment.

     Other  expenses increased $338,000, or 10.2%, from $3,319,000 in
the  first  six months of 1995, compared to $3,657,000 other expenses recorded
during  the  same  period in 1996.  This increase is primarily the result of a
$149,000  increase  in  legal  expenses, a $92,000 rise in consulting fees and
$32,000  in  expenses related to the new branches.  The increase in legal fees
are  associated  with  the Farmers merger, the resolution of legal matters and
legal fees related to maintaining the loan portfolio.   The rise in consulting
fees  are  related  to  franchise  expansion  and  consultation  concerning
enhancements  to  bank  operations.  The second quarter 1996 other expenses of
$1,773,000, were $20,000 higher than the other expenses recorded in the second
quarter  of  1995.

INCOME  TAXES

     Income tax expense is less than the amount calculated using the statutory
tax  rate  primarily  as  a  result of tax exempt income earned from state and
municipal  securities  and  loans.

BALANCE  SHEET  ANALYSIS

     Total assets grew $42,530,000, or 4.5%, from $937,345,000 at December 31,
1995  to $979,875,000 at June 30, 1996.  This growth was primarily in interest
earning  assets  which grew $36,962,000 to $926,693,000 at June 30, 1996, from
$889,731,000 at December 31, 1995.   During the first six months of 1996 loans
grew  $26,099,000,  investment  securities  grew $16,322,000, interest-bearing
deposits in banks rose $2,836,000 and Federal Funds Sold decreased $8,295,000.

     Total  deposits  rose $38,940,000 from $794,500,000 at December  31, 1995
to  $833,440,000  at June 30, 1996.  This growth was due to a $11,912,000 rise
in  time  deposits,  a  $11,696,000 growth in noninterest-bearing accounts, an
$11,349,000  increase  in  money  market accounts and a $4,870,000 increase in
savings  accounts.   Offsetting these increases was a $887,000 decrease in NOW
accounts.  Other borrowing decreased $1,929,000 during the first six months of
1996.

CAPITAL

     Capital  formation is critical to the Corporation's well being and future
growth.    Capital  for  the  period  ending June 30, 1996 was $90,165,000, an
increase  of   $3,803,000 over the end of 1995.  The increase is primarily the
result  of  the  retention of the Corporation's earnings.  Management believes
that the Corporation's current capital and liquidity positions are adequate to
support its operations.  Management is not aware of any recommendations by any
regulatory  authority  which,  if  it  were  to  be  implemented, would have a
material  effect  on  the  Corporation's  capital.

     The  Corporation's    capital  ratios  exceed  regulatory  requirements. 
Existing  minimum  regulatory  capital ratio requirements are 5.5% for primary
capital  and  6.0% for total capital.  The Corporation's primary capital ratio
was  10.00% at June 30, 1996, compared with 9.98% at December 31, 1995.  Since
the  Corporation's  only  capital is primary capital, the total capital ratios
are  the  same  as  the  primary  capital  ratios.

                                   PAGE 13

     Pursuant  to  the  federal  regulators'  risk-based  capital  adequacy
guidelines,  the  components of capital are called Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital. 
For  the  Corporation,  Tier 1 Capital is the shareholders' equity, and Tier 2
capital  is  the allowance for loan losses.  The risk-based capital ratios are
computed  by  dividing  the  components  of  capital by risk-adjusted assets. 
Risk-adjusted assets are determined by assigning credit risk-weighting factors
from  0%  to  100%  to  various  categories  of  assets  and off-balance sheet
financial  instruments.      The minimum for the Tier 1 ratio is 4.0%, and the
total  capital  ratio  (Tier  1  plus  Tier 2 capital divided by risk-adjusted
assets)  minimum  is  8.0%.    At  June  30,  1996,  the  Corporation's Tier 1
risk-adjusted  capital  ratio  was 12.67%, and the total risk-adjusted capital
ratio was 13.92%, both well above the regulatory requirements.  The risk-based
capital  ratios  of  each  of the Corporation's commercial banks also exceeded
regulatory  requirements  at  June  30,  1996.

     To  supplement  the  risk-based  capital adequacy guidelines, the Federal
Reserve  Board  established  a  leverage  ratio guideline.  The leverage ratio
consists  of  Tier  1  capital  divided  by  quarterly  average  total assets,
excluding  intangible  assets.  The minimum leverage ratio guideline is 3% for
banking  organizations that do not anticipate significant growth and that have
well-diversified  risk, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings
and,  in  general,  are  considered  top-rated, strong banking organizations. 
Other banking organizations are expected to have ratios of at least 4% and 5%,
depending  upon  their particular condition and growth plans.  Higher leverage
ratios  could be required by the particular circumstances or risk profile of a
given  banking  organization.  The Corporation's leverage ratios were 9.22% at
June  30,  1996  and  8.99%  at  December  31,  1995.

     The  year-to-date June 30, 1996 cash dividend per share of $.38 was 11.8%
higher  than  the cash dividend for the same period in 1995 of $.34.  The $.19
per  share  cash  dividend  paid  during  the second quarter of 1996 was 11.8%
higher than the $.17 per share cash dividend paid during the second quarter of
1995.  On June 28, 1996, the Corporation paid a 5% stock dividend (five shares
of  common  stock  for  each  100 shares of common stock outstanding held), to
shareholders  of  record  June  14,  1996.  Activity in both the Corporation's
dividend  reinvestment and stock purchase and stock options plans did not have
a  material  impact  on  capital  during  the  first  six  months  of  1996.

LIQUIDITY

     Liquidity  is  a  measure of the ability of the Banks to meet their needs
and  obligations on a timely basis.  For a bank, liquidity answers the ability
to meet the day-to-day demands of deposit customers, along with the ability to
fulfill  the needs of borrowing customers.  Generally, the Banks arrange their
mix  of  cash,  money  market  investments, investment securities and loans in
order  to  match  the volatility, seasonality, interest sensitivity and growth
trends  of its deposit funds.  Federal Funds sold averaged  $14,811,000 during
the  first  six  months  of  1996  and  securities available for sale averaged
$182,678,000  during  the  first  six  months of 1996, more than sufficient to
match  normal  fluctuations  in  loan demand or deposit fund supplies.  Backup
sources  of  liquidity  are  provided  by  Federal  Fund  lines carried in the
subsidiary  Banks.  Additional liquidity could be generated through borrowings
from  the  Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and the Federal Home Loan Bank
of  Pittsburgh,  of  which  Harleysville,  Citizens  and Security are members.

     There  are  currently a number of issues before Congress which may affect
the  Corporation  and  its business operations, and the business operations of
its subsidiaries.  However, management does not believe these issues will have
a  material  adverse  effect on liquidity, capital resources or the results of
operations.

     There  are  no  known  trends  or  demands,  commitments,  events  or
uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in,
liquidity  increasing  or  decreasing  in  any  material  way.

     Aside  from  those matters described above, management does not
currently believe that there are any known trends or uncertainties which would
have  a  material  impact  on  future  operating results, liquidity or capital
resources  nor  is  it  aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities  which  if  they were to be implemented would have such an effect,
although the general cost of compliance with numerous and multiple federal and
state  laws  and  regulation  does  have and in the future may have a negative
impact  on  the  corporation's  results  of  operations.

          (b)  Reports on Form 8-K:

               On March 1, 1996, a Form 8-K was filed by the Registrant
reporting that on March 1, 1996, Farmers & Merchants Bank ("Farmers") was
merged with and into The Citizens National Bank of Lansford ("Citizens"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Harleysville National Corporation (the "Corpora-
tion"), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated September
7, 1995, and a related Agreement and Plan of Merger of the same date.  Share-
holders of Farmers received 0.6190 shares of the Corporation's Common Stock
for each share of Farmers' Common Stock outstanding prior to the acquisition.
A total of 438,262 shares were issued by the Corporation in the transaction.
The acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's
financial position and results of operations.
