He saw the animal bleeding very much from • wound in the back, and perceiving the prisoner running away, he pursued him until he (prisoner) was stopped by a policeman, and then charged him with the offeoce of cruelly ill•treating the dog. The acting inspector on duty at this court said the boy yes very much neglected, having neither father nor mother of bin own. His stepfather, on being communicated with, rid the prisoner might take his chance, he should do nothing for him. The dog was bleeding very much when brought to the policastation. The owner of the dog said it was not much hurt, and that as the prisoner bad been locked up all night, perhaps it would deter him from repeating such cruel conduct. Alderman Allen said • dumb animal could not protect Unit, and they prisoner must therefore be a very wicked boy to stick • knife into one. He hoped it would not occur sous, or he would punish the prisoner severely. Acting upon the recommeodation of the owner of the dog be would discharge the prisoner on this =anion, at the same time observing that Lord Haynharn had acted most properly in giving him into custody, and that the public were much indebted to him for interesting himself so warmly in the awe of humanity. . _ . ~. The prisoner, who appeared very much frightened, wee then discharged. —.--- - CLERKENWELL. COWITAL OP A PICKPOCLIT.

James Car, • decent-looking young man, was placed at the bar before Mr. Burcham, charged with assaulting John Mullins, and breaking his left ann. The complainant, whose left arm was bandaged up, said that he was • labouriog man, and resided in hitechapel. About 8 o'clock on the previous night he was passing along Windmill-street, New-cat, when be maw the prisoner strug gling with his father, whom he knocked down. Witmer went and assisted him up, and told the prisoner that he ought to be ashamed ..of himself to Mose his father in such a manner.

He regretted it very much. In answer to Mr. Burcbam, the prosecutor said that they had several rounds before be fell, but he did not think he would have fallen or broken his arm had not the prisoner's brother interfered.

The prosecutor had on wish to press the charge under theme circumstances. and on an ►rrangement being entered into between them the charge was withdrawn. The prisoner was accordingly discharged. Crry Imyeoyzyrrts.—We are glad to see the march of inaprovemerit in the City, and we are preset, too, of the rapid stndes that have been made in this generation. King William -street, Cannon-street, and Moorgate-street, are ' noble thoroughfares, whilst the grouping of buildings around the Exehaoge presents from various points of view pictures of architectural grandeur of which old Rome might be proud. The taste and opulence of our merchants and pri vate companies are exhibited in the multitude of splendid edifices that hoe oar streets, end strike the eye with their bold frontages at almost every corner, and op every narrow court. What • pity Noel a wealth of beauty sharld be hidden almost in dark Avelino, aod blind alleys ! The contrast is striking; but this is London—an old City rebuilding, a had ground- Plan being gradully accommodated to the needs of • gigantic and still-iocresaing trade. London is not Washington, with its long vistas of geometrical streets, ending nowhere and ro nothing ; nor St. Petersburg, built to order; nor Paris, sreght to be made a monument of sutocretic taste, but • city with a principle of growth within itself, developing, sebirgiog, tracwiformieg, front an internal impales. Itws because at must ; if it cannot grow o u t war d s , it w ill grow ' , lnwards, just like plants which, stunted in one direction, ttland in another. London, in short, is simply the stone !ail brick embodiment of a weighty commerce, and as this leo - reams, so the City, crab-like, must enlarge its shell, to to give it room to breathe and move, and perform all its mai functioes.—City Press. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 12, 1863. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY. ( THIS DAY.) The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors was held at moos at Ruston-station, Mr. MOON in the chair. le accordance with a previous announcement by circular the proceedings were confined to the authorisation of the raising of new capital for certain purposes mentioned in the notice convening the meeting ; viz., for the purpose of creating new capital (not exceeding 2,48,1661.) in pursuance of the powers contained in the acts of parliament relating to the company ; and also for the purpose of considering, and, if deemed expedient, resolving to attach to such capital, or some portion thereof, or to the capital already created but not issued, or some portion thereof, a fixed and preferential dividend upon such terms and conditions as may be then determined : and also for the purpose of creating jointly with the Great Weetern Railway Company 4T4,1751. 10a lid- of capital for the pur of the Birkenhead Railway, in pursuance of t " c• Th " ii Birkenhead Railway (Vesting) Act, 1861." And also to authorise agreements with the Conway and Llanninit, Knighton, South Leiceaterehire, Hampstead Junction, and Cannock Chase Railway Companies; and for sanctioning the exercise of the powers authorising a subscription by the company of 23,CC11. towards the construction of the Cocker mouth, Keswick, and Penrith Railway, under the provisions of the Cockermouth, Keswick. and Peurith Railway Act, 1863, and 30,0001. towards the construction of the Knighton Rail way ; and also for the pm pose of considering, and, ii ap proved of, authorising the conversion of a further portion of the borrowed capital of the company into perpetual deben ture stock, in conformity with the acts of parliament au. thorising such oonversioo. The minutes of the last half-yearly meeting and of the specie' meetings held since having been read and confirmed, The CHAIRMAN said that for the last twenty yearn it had been customary to bold the half-yearly meetings towards the end of August; but, in this instance, as the accounts could not be issued so u to be in the hands of the pro prietors seven da prior to the day of meeting, the ordi nary business wou ld have to be adjourned till next Friday week. SHAREHOLDER said although the account. were Rot closed, the chairman would perhaps state what the dividend would be. (Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN replied that the dividend would be at the rate of 4i per cent per annum, which was most fairly earned, with a small surplus to be added to the reserve fund. He believed that that was the first time since 1855 that the company bad been enabled to add to the surplus out of the profits of the first half of the year. (Cheers.) It having been resolved that she business of the ordinary meeting should be adjourned till the 21st instant, a special meeting was held to consider the question of the raising of caprtaL The SECRITARY (Mr. Stewart) read a correspondence be tween the general committee of directors and the committee of the Manchester Shareholders' Association, from which it appeared that the latter object to the raising of capital by war of preferential shares or stock as prejudicial to the interests of the company, and are also of opinion that some of the new works for which the capital is required will prove unn=unerative. The CHAIRMAN said the works had been authorised by the proprietors, and it was necessary for the company to construct them. As the trade of the coun try extended that company must keep pace with it. While the trade of Lancashire had been depressed that of Yorkshire and Staffordshire bad expanded. The passenger traffic had steadily increased, and if the country prospered that company would prosper with it. (Hear, beer.) The directors bad anxiously considered the question of the best mode of raising the capi tal. During the prone= of constructing the Der/ works • portion of the new capital woul d be =pro ductive; but the resource. of the company would enable them to bear the outlay. The directors thought the beet course was to raise the money by means of • 5 per cent stock to be issued in such a manner as would most conduce to the interest' of the company. A 4 per cent stock would not secure the money with sufficient rapidity ; while a 4) per cent. stock was between wind and water, and would not take with the public. A 5 per cent. stock would, he thought, realise 115. which would be equivalent to raising the capital at 41. 6s. per cent. (Hear, hear.) Their neighbours generally were now of opinion that more profit was to be =dishy maintaining amicable editions than by opposition ; and he hoped that feeling would be strengthened. To show the elasticity of the concern, he might observe that the receipts of the last week exceeded those of the host week in the Exhibition year by 6031. ; they actually amounted to 111,6801. (Cheers.) Having regard to the im provement of the traffic and to the prospect of further im provement, the board thought it was the interest of the pro. proton that the new capital required should be raised by way of preferential stock. He concluded by moving the following resolution :—"That in punuance of the powers vested in the company by their several acts; of parliament, an additional capital of 2,197,6661. be crested and divided into shares of 1001. each, and that such new shares shall be entitled to a perpetual preferential dividend (without further participation of profits) at the rate of 51. per cent. per annum, payable when the said shares are paid up half yearly, at the same periods as the dividends on the ordinary stock of the com pany are parable. That the amount paid from time to time on calls, or in advance of calla, shall be entitled to interest at the rate of 5/. per cent. per =nom, from the date. when the calls are paid, or from the date when the whole amount is paid up. That the directors be and they are hereby authorised to dispose of the said oew shares, at such times and in such manner as they may deem most for the advantage of the company. That the said new share capital may, in pursuance of the said acts, be issued as paid-up Nock. asead when the same is paid up in fulL" A SHAREHOLDZIL regretted the necessity for raising fresh capital, but. believed that the mode of raising it proposed by the board was on the whole the beat. The Rev. Mr. EARLS was indignant at this proposal to raise nearly 3.000,0001. by means of preference shares—• course which be considered moat prejudicial to the interests of the company. Mr. SHEWARD strongly objected to extensions, but con sidered it impowible to stand still. He was not sanguine enough to believe that the new linen would prove beneficial to the company ; bat a debt had been contracted and it must be discharged. In reply to questions, The CHAIRMAN said the board considered it beet that the issuing of the new capital should be left to them ! selves. It would be issued on the moat favourable terms that could be obtained for the company. On the 80th of June the price of the Cheater sod Holyhead five per cent stock was 115, and that of the London and Brighton and the Gnat Northern five per cent, preference stock 114. I. reply to • further question, The CHAIRMAN said the holders of the new stock would be allowed to pay up in full at once. Mr. J. W. RosTheort considered the question of raising money at 5 per cent, so serious that the meeting ought to be adjourned for further consideration. Mr. Caosermui (auditor) thought it best in the present position of the company to take • partner, who would virtually receive only4l. 6e. per cent., he himself expecting to receive ere long 5) per cent. Mr. Crianwice moved the adjournment of the question till the 21st instant. The amendment having been seconded, wu submitted to • show of bands : 10 hands were held up in favour of, and 65 agitinet The original resolution was then carried. A resolution authorising a conversion of a sum not ex ceeding 5,000,0004 from debentures into debenture stock was then passed. The transfer of the Conway and Llanrwst Railway to the London and North Western Company, the capital being 70,0004, was confirmed. A similar resolution was paned with regard to the Cannock Chase Railway, the capital being 20,0004 The arrangement with respect to the Knighton Railway was also approved. Some other formal resolutions, in accordance with the notice convening the meeting, were also agreed to. The remainder of the special business relating to the agree ment with the Great Western Railway respecting the Bir kenhead Railway was postponed till the 21st inst. The meeting terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. BAN PAULO (BRAZILIAN) RAILWA Y. (THIS DAY.) The seventh ordinary general meeting of the shareholders in this company was held this day at the London Tavern ; Mr. R. A. Hanna in the chair. The report, of which we have already published am& strat., was takes u reed. The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, observed that the progress in the undertaking had been so satisfactory that there was no point upon which it was necessary for him to enlargs. _ _ Th . ; motion wee seconded by Mr. Brno. Replying to questions, The CliAtitnalt said the next all would be made at the end of the year, probably in December. No extensions were at present contemplated, bat if anything of the kind were proposed, it would no doubt be with the object of lengthening the line to Rio Clero, which would take them through some of the richest coffee districts in Brazil. . . The report was adopted, and a cordial vote of thanks to the chairman and directors brought the proceediop to a cicee. MINES.-(THIS DAY) Two o'Ctocri.

THE SALMON Fisunniats.—The salmon season is now drawing to a close, and altogether has been the most successful that has bees experienced in the Severn and W 7 O —two of the most important salmon streams in England— for a great many years. Not only has the take of fish been greater, but the fish have been unusually fine. Fish from 201 b. to 301 b. in weight have been quitecom mon, while several have been taken in the Severn 401 b. in weight, and one recently 521 b. The taking of such large fish is one of the most sig. 1 nificaut signs of improvement in the management of the fisheries. The act of 1861, for the improvement of salmon fisheries, and protection of the fish when in a breeding con dition, bee, no doubt, had a salutary effect. The putt sod patcher fisheries in the lower part of the Severn and Wye, and in the estuary between the mouths of the Wye and Avon and Newport, are found so difficult of management in consequence of the neorarity of dosing them from Satur day at noon to Monday morning, that it is likely they will be abandoned for net fishing. This will be a great boon to the fishermen io the upper portions of the rivers, who OM plain that the putts and putchers take more than a fair toll of the fish. The executive of the local protection moods lions have strictly watched these fisheries, and in all CAWS where the weekly fence time has been disregarded have pro secuted the offenders. Informations against several fisher. men for offences of this clams were laid yesterday, sod the eases will be beard before the local magistrates next week. It must be taken se a proof of the increase of the fish that • shoal of grampuses have lately appeared in the Bristol Channel in pursuit of the salmon. One of these has been captured as high as within three miles of edouci 'ter, and he bad no doubt pursued the salmon up the river so far, no less than 45 salmon having been taken in one draught near the spot where the grampus was motored. This fish WY 16 feet long and about 12 feet round the thickest part. 22 111 1 f
