PAItIS. yiteRSDAT APTIRNOOX. Th e G ,vernor of the Bank of France has just made known t e annual reprt of the proceedings of that establish:tilt for the year 1832. The profits have amount , t to 5,292,300 f. for the first six months, and to 5,47.1.0110 f. for the second, or in all 10,767,500 f., reprtmn .lig a dividend of 38f. per share for the first holt•vta , , and one of 601. per share for the second, or in all 118 f. The discount accommodation has amountol t 3 608,048,381 f., and the advances on canal o hms, r. rate, railway shares, ingots, and treasury Weds o 481,341,836 f. This large movement of business has given to the bauk a return of 3,883 ; 191f. 90c., to whi.th may be added, for commis sion and other items of profit, 207,717 f. 90c., or in all 1,111...:15f. 80c. This sum is for the Paris Bank • th. profits of the branch banks being added to A give a gross produce of 14,872,701 f. 49c. In cumpatit.g the year 1852 with the two preced ing on, . it is found that 1832 has an advan tage of about two millions on an average over each, the profits of 1851 being 12,999,3.151. 70c., and those of 1830, 12,303,231 f. 30c., so that 1832 is superior to 1851 by 1,832,365[ 79c., and to 1830 by 234,746f.98c. 7bs movement of business during the first six months el 1852 was 738,804,472 E, and during the latter 1,063,6 d Ida., being a very decided increase. The sontrery was the case in 1831, as during the first Ma months the amount was 669,623,425 f., and during the last six mouths only 571,787,455 f. The total amount of bills discounted by the branch banks in 1552 has been 1,216,121,000 f., giving a profit of 3,632,2191. In 1851, the same operations gave a, total of 855,073,000 f., or 3,102,700 f. of profit. In 1830, the total was 835,813,000 f., or 3,373,830 f. of profit. The advantage consequently in this point is also in favour of 1832. The average of the discounts I. the branch banks during 1852 was 88,230,000 f., of the circulation 141,500,0001., of the metallic reserve 103,000,000f.,and of the accounts-current 27,930,000 f. _ . . These figures show an increase over 18.51 and 18,50 in the two first items, and a diminution in the two last. In tine, the operations of the branch banks for 18.52 give a nett profit of 1,829,56.5 f. 4c. The thirty branch banks are placed for the year in the following order of importance as to the amount of business done : Marseilles, Lyon, Bordeaux, Lille, Valen ciennes, Besancon, Rouen, Saint Quentin, le Havre, Angoalime, Montpellier, Toulouse, Rheims, Saint Etienne ' Nantes, Mulhouse, Nimes, Strasbourg, Le Mans, Metz, Caen, Orleans, Avignon, Limoges, Troyes, Grenoble. Angers, &macs, Clermont, Chh teauroox. The branch banks of Mulhansen, Avig non, Troyes, Angers, Bonne*, and Clermont, have not paid their expenses, bat have caused a loss of 198,081 f. 10c. At the general meeting at which the , report use read, M. Bayvet was re-elected censor for three years, and Count Pullet-Will, M. James Odiot, and X. Halphen regents for five years. ITALY. NAPLES. The government has more than filled up the ranks of the Swiss regiments, and there now stand sixteen thousand of these foreigners under the banner of the Bourbon. A correspondent, writing on the 31st ult., states that a movement of troops towards the Abruzzi, to join the Austrians concentrated on the strong positions of La Cattolica, was talked of. We read in the Modena Messenger: Yes ore aware that the Cardinals met lately to examine a propositon made by the King of Naples to purchase the Duchy of Benevento and the district of Poetseorvo. This proposition was unanimously rejected on the traditional principle of the Roman church not to part with, give, or ode for ever, any portion of the territory composing the civil principality. In a financial point of view, the 'dal. aistrstinn of that tanNery, included within the Neapolitan paseisions, in mac GOMM than useful to the Holy See • bat that consideentima 0111110 i 'militate against the traditiona l principle. As amuses at territory may, perhaps, be ae eared, but it is usawaplail that any other arrangement was ever agreed to. TURKEY. THE TANZIMAT. We have received from Constantinople a copy of the firman concerning the powers accorded to the pvernors-general of the Turkish provinces. We have sought in vain in this document for the proof of the abolition et the Tanzimat, which has been so categorically a ffi rmed in the Austrian papers. The imperial ordinance, in giving to governors-general the faculty of superse din g the magistrates under them, makes them responsible for all the acts of their subordinates, and so far gives vigour to the admini stration. All the formalities reiuired by the Tonal mat for guaranteeing the administration of justice are preserved. The same &man also prescribes energetic measures for the suppression of brigandage. MONTENEGRO. A private correspondent addresses to us the follow ing letter. Although it brings no news later than that of the Custozza boat, it is valuable as coming from an independent source : " TRIESTE, FRB. 6. " The latest news from Montenegro, which reached this place on the 4th instant by the steamer of Dalmatia, is very favourable for the Turks. Omer Pacha, after having subdued many districts, of which the principal are Berda, Moratshka, Kutshi, Bielo pavlovitz, &c., has so far advanced that at present he is encamped at a distance of four hours from Cettinge, the capital of Montenegro. In order to avoid as much as possible the spilling of blood, Omer Pacha has summoned the rebels to surrender, and granted them eight days. We have as yet no intelligence as to the result of General Leiningen's mission. - . . The Lespzte Gazette states that, under date Vienna, Feb. 4, "The preparations made by the Austrian government to cover the Turkish frontier are on a most extensive scale. It is even said that the Em peror will leave for Agram. The court has received orders to hold itself in readiness for departure." The Neese Prussian Gazette says:—" The arma ments of Austria prove that she is resolved to treat the affair seriously. The corps d'armili of the Ban Jellachich will not con. ist of 18,000 but of 40,000, without reckoning the troops under General Mamula. At Vienna and St. Petersburg it is resolved to main tain the independence of 'Montenegro. Thus, should the 'l' irks occupy the country, their possession of it would bo but temporary."

The latest private advice, state that on Wednesday Milan had been restored to tranquility, but that in surrection had manifested itself in other places. Austrian troops are stated to have been marched towards the Swiss frontier. No intelligence of the whereabouts of Mazzini has been received of later date than the 6th of February. One thing seems clear—that he has shown his confidence in the task ho has had iu band, by leaving his safe refuge in England to encounter courageously the risks attend ant upon rousing the power of Austria in Lombardy. His friends entertain many fears fur his personal safet y . A despatch of untold origin is thus published in the Cologne Gazette:— " MILAN, Ti.EBDAY, FEB. B.—Tranquillity has not been disturbed since the day before yesterday. Of the insurrectionists taken witn arms in their hands, six have been hanged and three shot." The Zurich Gazette of Feb. 8 contains the fol lowing: "The courier from Milan, who has arrived at Lugano, reports that a body of 400 men, armed with daggers, attacked tho troops and the gendarmerie on Sunday, and that WO have been killed. Similar scenes had taken place at Rimini, but the result was nut known." The following telegraphic despa'ch, dated Berne, Feb. 9, 12.30 (noon), but not dated at Milan, evi dently relates to the state of things described in the despatches published on Thursday in the Express: "The Swiss consul at Milan sends by a despatch dated Milan, 7 p.m., and which has just arrived, the intelligence that a premeditated disturbance (echaelf fourfe) took place on the evening of the oth, simul taneously in three different parts of the town. The population of Milan, generally, took no part in it. Order was promptly restored. 4 The Basle Gazette says : "A telegraphic despatch from Bellinzona an nounces that seditious movements hare taken place in different towns of Lombardy, and that the bar racks at Milan were attacked by 400 insurgents. This intelligence caused great sensation in diplomatic circles at Berne." The Turin journals of the 7th inst. state that the day before a Cabinet Council had been hastily con voked, and met under the presidency of the King. The news of the insurrection at Milan had just reached, and it was believed thet the Lombard re ragea were implicated therein. One fact makes it very easy to believe why Lom bardy should at this moment be in determined resist ant* to Austria, namely, that the Government of that kingdom had become, by cruelty and grossness, posi tively and literally intolerable, and its peaceful con tinuance an impossibility. The people, it has been truly said, have been "directed in their feeding, clothing, and smoking; their parish affairs managed for them, perhaps by a serjeant's guard; their letter read by the Post-office ; their sons seized 'on sus pinion; their wives beaten, their lives rendered wretched and precarious. Five years has that state of things continued—to say nothing of the 30 years, behind those five." On the 4th, it appears by a private letter dated Saturday last, the Austrian government made nu merous arrests, which spread desolation through Milan, and more than 200 families fled to the canton of the Tessin. The government had, it was said, diseovered a vast conspiracy. At the same time Tenafly was in a state of excitement, and domici -1 Nary visits were made at Pisa, Laces, l'eschia, and Pistoja, and were succeeded by many arrests. A telegraphic despatch from Vienna of the 7th in forms us that the government had announced the events of Milan to the Viennese as a quarrel between the dregs of the population and a few soldiers re specting the wearing of masks. Tho conflict, it is added, broke out on Sunday evening, in the square of the Cathedral. THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 12, 1853 EIN court. WINDSOR, Fin. 11.

Marx ILL, jun. Esq., chairman, presided. The meeting being opened with the usual formalitite, The CHAIKNAN called upon the Secretary to read the re port, but as it had been circulated amongst the sharehold ers it was not deemed necessary to do so. The statement of the revenue account for the half-year ending Dece m b er 31 , s h owe d the receipts to have been 102,3391. 38 , and the payments 67,5911. Is. 4J., leaving a balance of 31,7451. 1.. BJ. The capital account stated the receipts at 1,167,0501. 3s. 9d., and the payments 1,025,480/. 13 1 . 6fd., being a balance of 142,1691. 10s. lid. The CIUIRIII•N moved the adoption of the report and statement of accounts which was framed nem con. The CHAIRMAN then moved—" That the interest or divi &ad on the preference shares at 4!. percent. per annum, for the half'year ending Dee. 31, 1852, be paid on the 18th inst. to the holders of such shares who are registered in the books of the company this day." Mr. JOHN Pasta said it was proper to state that this ar rangement was not according to the terms upon which those preference shares had been issued, but was a point which the directors had thou, ht proper to cosrede. The CHAIR/lAN then read the next resolution, which re ferred to the dividend upon the old shares. 11. said it was after the rate of 3 per cent. upon the augmented capital. There was a small balance in hand to be carried to the credit of the company. The resolution was—" ]'hat a dividend be now declared on the ordinary shares of the compane, as follow", via.:—On the original shares of 251. each, paid in full, 7s. 6d. per share ; on the new or premium shares of 2.51. each, paid in full, from Aegust 31, 1852. 6s. 6d. per share ; on the new or premium shares with 17!. paid, 4s. 91d. per there, subject to income tax ; that the said dividends be payable tied paid on the 31st of March to the shareholders registered in the books of the company this day." Thu CHAIR/UN said the next resolution was respecting the Four per Ceuta Pre'ercnce shares. It was, that " Thia meeting having had under consideration the resolution of June 27,18.51, rclatiog t. the issue of the Four per Cent. Fre fereture Shares; also the act elan session of parliament, by which the time for their issue is considerably extended; and it apresring that 16,000 of said shares have already been allotted—lisselved : That the resolutions of the said 27th June, 1851, be now rescinded, se far as relates to the 10,000 shares remaining, and that they be issued on the following conditions, vie.: That they he entitled to equal priority or preference as to dividend with the 16,000 SRAM in the first issue, to t4c extent of 4 per cent. per annum upon the amount called up; but without the further participation to j which such 16,000 shares are contingently entitled.

That a deposit of 51. per share be paid, with option to tue holder of such shares to pay the amount of such deposit by nne instalment, or by two instalments of 50s. each, with an interval of three montns between the payments." A vote of thanks to the chairman then concluded the pro ceedings. WATERFORD AND KILKENNY RAILWAY. Yesterday a special general meeting of the share. holders of this company was held at the London T Ilishopsgate-strt et, for the purpose of authorising the direct tors to borrow on mortgage debentures, or otherwise, such sum or sums of money as the meeting might determine, and also to empower them to reborrow such sum or sums as may have been applied in ming off any part of the money be foe authorised to be borrowed. Mr. RADDOW took the chair, in consequence of the un avoidable absence of General Macleod. The advertisement having been reed, The CHAIRMAN, after explaining the financial condition of the compny, said it was the intention of the directors on this occasion to apply to the shueholdcre for powers to raise only 213,0001., with which sum they intended to pay off various liabilities, and to prove that by so doing they were acting judiciously, he would mention one item in which 8001. would be saved to the company. Another reason which would justify this step, was tke ne cessity of completing their rolling stock, for which no pro per allowance was made in the works. The chairman then moved a formal resolution for saactiouung the raising of the above sum of 26,0e01. _ The mo.ion before the meeting bating been seconded, WWI pawl unanimously. The meeting then adjourned. LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAILWAY. The report of the directors, which is to be pre sented at the general meeting of proprietors, on Tuesday , next, says: " The ordinary statements of account for the half-year ending 31st December, 1852, show the following results. The gross revenue for the half-year, with the balance of 3681.5 e. 64. from the previous account , amounts to 35,7251. 19s. 2d , and the expenditure to 14,4961. ss. 7d., leaving a balance of 21,2291. 13s. 7d. Deducting therefrom 3,2,91 13s. 2d. interest on debentures 17,9701.

A tabular statement of receipts and expenditure for the two preceding years, accompanied the report of February, 1852; to that state ment is now added the results of the workinj during the 'past year. A comparison of the years 1801-62, shows during the last year an increase of 3,8401. 15... Bd. in receipts, and reductions of 1,4391. Bs. Ild. in working ex penses, and of 2,0151. 16s. 9,11. in the general expenditure. A CARGO FOR THE DIGGINGS. The Screw Company's steamer Harbinger left Southampton yesterday for Australia. She took out 60 pas sengers, specie (principally gold) to the value of 240,0001., jewellery, valued at 20,00 W.; and a miscellaneous cargo be sides, amongst which was a wooden house, and a large quan tity of spades and pickaxes for the gold diggings. Iler cargo is valued at nearly half a million sterling. The Harbinger Wok out ship loiter mails for the Cape of Good Hope, Ade laide, Melbourne, Van Diemeu's Land, and New South Wales. These mails contained nearly 10,000 letters and newspapers. The Harbinger only purposes to call at the Cape, Port Philip, and Sydney, and the Adelaide and Van Diemen's Land mails will be landed at Port Philip. This It the first steamer the General Screw Company have sent out to Australia. They purpose, as soon as they have vessels sufficient, to establish • direct iminesunVation monthly between Southampton and Australia, even if they do not get a government mail con tract for such vessels. The Harbinger is not one of the large aim steamers, but she is a commodious and very feat vessel. She has made very good passages between this coun try and the Mediterranean and the Cape of Good Hope ; and her last trip was a very splendid run between this country and Calcutta and back. She is expected in South ampton main in July next. All her passengers' berths are occupied, and her space for cargo was engaged fur a week or two before she sailed. Many of her passengers have taken out quantities of ironmongery and other goods for SOU or awl at the diggings. There are now eight steam= either going eat to Australia, or at the Australian ports, or on their way from thence to this country via the Cape of Good Hope, and four more stamen will leave England for the gold regions during this month. AUSTRALIAN AGRICULTURAL COMPANY. A special general meeting of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern, " for the purpose of considering, and if deemed advisable, of approving and confirming an agreement made with the Peel River Land and Mineral Company for the sale of part of the estates of tbs said Australian Agricultural Company, situate in New South Wales, and for purposes connected therewith ; and also for the purpose of considering, and if deemed advis able, of approving and sanctioning a bill intended to be in troduced into the houses of parliament in this session for the purpose of sanctioning and confirming the said arrange ments between the said two companies; and also for the purpose of reducing the capital and nominal amount, and Increasing the number of shares in the Australian Agricul ' tural Company, and for altering the qualification of the directors and auditors, and the principle of voting, and the form of transfers in use by the said companies." W. haowninoa, Esq., took the chair. The attendance was numerous. The CnaltileAlt (after the notice bad been reed) said, in opening the proceedings, that he had to congratulate the proprietors that their agreements were at last ;completed, and that it now only required the cenfirmation of them by this meeting to obtain full and complete registration. Ex planations of these agreements had already been given to the proprietors, and he would not, therefore, go again into the matter. Ile then called upon The SOLICI2OI, who read to the meeting the marginal notes of the agreement with the Peel Miser Lind and Mineral Company. lite points may be thus briefly stated. the capital of the company is reduced from 1,000,0001. to 500,000 L ; the number of shares are doubled, vie., from 10,000 to 20,000; and the shares, in future, will be only 251. each ; the qualification of the directors being of course therefore lowered. The CHAIIMAN then said, that as the particulars were now known, these being the boils of the act of parliament they would apply for, he was in a position to move the necessary resolutions for adoption. He accordingly sub mitted two resolutions—" That the meeting approve of the agreement ;" and, "that an act of pazhement besought in the present session." These were carried unanimously. DESERTION FROM THE MlLlTlA.—Yesterday three young men, named James Bridget, James Whiting, and Joseph Jasper, the elder scarcely of age, were brought before Colonel Elwood, Major Carr, John Barrer, Esq., William Partridge, Esq., and Forster Smith, Esq., the sitting magistrates at the - Brighton bench, on a charge of desertinir from the Royal Bu-sea Militia by enlisting into the 43d Regiment of Infantry. The prisoners were natives of Brighton, and were enrolled in the Militia in October and November last, being attested by Colonel Paine and Nontagla Scott, Esq. Captain Fuller, Adjutant of the Sussex Militia, stated that having received a report that the three prisoners had deserted in the manner indicated, he laid the case before the Duke of Richmond, colonel of the regiment of Militia, and received his grace's directions to follow them. Accordingly be traced them to Cu kileW, Sussex, where they had enlisted, to London, and thence to Ireland, where the Ora Regiment is quartered. Ile was in Dublin before them, and on their arrival he gave such evidence as led to their being banded over to Lis cus tody. Mr. Borrer said this was a crime that must be put • atop to ; and where the characters were bad the magistrates had resolved to treat such cases with the utmost severity. The crime was very prevalent all through the kingdom; to ' a certain extent Bridger and IVhiting stood before the pub lic as men of bad characters, and the bench were unani mous in awarding them the longest imprisonment which the Mutiny Act permitted. Tau were thers lore corn =Mid fiat six months. The third man, Jasper, we , not known to the police. This mast be Liken as a negatively good character, and ho would be committed for four months. And the prisoners would remember that at the end of their terms of imprisonment they would still b, long to the Ord lteg.meat, if that regiment chose to claim them. THE MODE OF ELECTING POOR LAW GUARDIANS. A RETURN REVERSED AT LEEDS. When Sir William Clay, M.P., proposed, and Edmund Denison, Esq., M.P., supported, the proposal for placing parliamentary electors on the same looting u the election of poor law guardians, they must have been pro foundly ignorant of the frauds practised under the latter mode of election. At Leeds, the system of election under the poor law regulations is regarded es in the highest degree unsatisfactory. Here it is notorious, and hes been proved on oath, by witnesses of the highest respectability, that the voting papers delivered and collected by parties duly appointed, have been destroyed, tampered with, and falsi fied, in such a manner as to secure the return of cadidates of one particular party, even when it was known that the bulk of the rate-payers had voted for others. In conse quent* of the disgust excited in the minds of many of the rate-payers, the dominant party have, until this year, been glowed to remain in un disturbed possession of their seats at the board of guardians. In May last the Poor-law Board was memroisl iced to snake an official inquiry into these practices, as re , garde the last elections for the north ward, and the then l'oor-law Board, with Sir John Trollop, se ' president, declared it to be proved that the grossest , irregularities had been practised in that election; and that the whole proceedings reflected the greatest discredit upon I all parties concerned in them. After this, at the instance of the ratepayers, the Poor-law Board ordered their inspec tor, Mr. Fursall, to scrutinise the voting papers for this ward. The scrutiny was completed last month, and this week the Poor-law Board have sent down an order, unseat ing Mr. Stead, the vin-chairman of the guardians, and Mr. Singleton, both of whom were in April last declared duly elected by a considerable msjority of votes, and declaring that their opponents had the majority of good votes, and ought to have been returned. In consequence of this, Messrs. Linsley and Broadhead have now, at the end of ten months, been allowed to take the scats which, during that period of time, have been usurped by the parties before named, who belong to the tory party. As is generallyknown the clerk to the guardians acts as returning officer, and at the last election he declared the number of good votes given for each of the candidates for this ward to have been —for Mr. Stead, 248 ; for Mr. Singleton, 238; for Messrs. Linsley and Broadhead, 209 each. The Poor-law Board, after a long and tedious examination of the voting papers, and after receiving evidence from the ratepayers, have now decided that this return was erroneous, and that the number of good votes for each candidate was as follows : Foe Mr. Broadhead, 236; for Mr. Linsley, 235; for Mr. Steed, 177 ; and for Mr. Singleton, IG9. Messrs. Broadhead and Linsley have consequently now taken their places at the board of guardian., and the two tory have, according to directions from the Poor law cased to act. It is believed in Leeds that this frau/dna won has been in operation ever since the first mamba stpur km guardians. local Rape= • Total Reaelpta Working IFT. tore on Re ffslf Year. on Ramona pommel vanes Account Amount.

LOBB AND RECOVERY OP BANK NOTES AT CHEL YENRAN.—We last week, says the Cheltenhant EVIMMer, gave an account of the less of notes and bills to the amount of 300/. in the public iiigh-street, and their fortunate re storation by a labouring man, who picked them up. We since learn that the roll of notes was found under some what peculiar circumstances ; the finder, a labouring man, seeing a dirty roll of paper lying on the ground, kicked it along with his foot as being worthless, and afterwards, with out any idea of its value, picked it up and put it into his pocket. lie went to work, and thought no more about it, until, ist tea time, his father inked him for a piece of paper out of his pocket, and was in the act of tearing • ?lice off one of the notes, when his rye luckily caught the figure of 5/. Its then discovered the value of the roll of crumpled paper, and immediately took it to the crier ; and on pro ceeding to the bank war rewarded with a 101, note for his honesty. " The bruseh to the lisydon-equare warehouses, although completed, has not yet been opened for traffic. This bas occasioned considerable disappointment to your directors. The delay has arisen from the extent of the works in sienna of construction by the London and North Western Railway Company at the warehouses; and your directors have the assurance of that that thew works are now nearly completed, and that re wising of the line will take piaee la two or three wed& The Fenehurch-street Station En isegment has boa serried on u rapidly as the oats of the ~osrYpomll. The whole of the property has been sal moilloots have been let for the works, and toy lowa to believe that the original estimate of 10,0001. win be moodod. Upon further consideration of the extent of mmwsmodation required for the traffic which will be brought on this line so soon le the London terminus is in a Mee to receive it, as well as for that which in a short time will be developed, your directors are satis fied that it is most desirable, if not absolutely necessary, that, instead of confining the station enlargement between Fenchurch-street and Crutched-friars, it should be ex tended to the Minories. The estimates and reports laid before your directors show that this further enlargement may be made for 23,0001. In relation to this subject, it will be in the recollection of the shareholders, that in the year 1848 an act was obtained for widening the line between Stepney and Fenchureh-street The advantages offered by the position of your city term& nue induced your directors to believe that the widening Mr the line would sooner or later become necessary for the reception of traffic from other railways, and on their ranee. mendation, renewals of the powers for that purpose were obtained in the years 181') and 1831. Those powers, so far as regards the purchase of property, will expire in July of the present year. Your directors do not hesitate to state their opinion that the time has arrived when the line must be widened, in order to obtain the full benefit of that traffic which is ready to be brought to Fenchurch-street, from railways now in alliance with this company. An estimate has been prepared of the cost of the property for two addi tional lines of rail., and of the works for one line of rails, and it appears that this will not cost more than 100,0001. Your directors have no doubt that arrangements will be made, which, in connection with increased traffic, sea render this outlay not only most prudent but amply rems . nerative, and they, therefore, recommend that the rum 41Ir 123,0001. should be raised on debentures fur widening the railway to Stepney, and for the further enlargement of the London terminus. At this meeting, two of your directors retire from o ffi ce by rotation, via.:—Mr. G. Lee, and Capt. Mangles, and being eligible for re-election, they will offer themselves accordingly.—J. N. Daniel, chairman.—Feb. 8, 1833." " At:DMus' Reeony.—We have examined the accounts and books or the company for t►o half-year ending 31st December, 18.52, and we Lad the receipts and payments duly vouched; and the abstracts of the various accounts prepared for printing, to be accurately drawn from the books, mid we certify the lame accordingly. A certificate has been submitted to us that the rolling stock is kept up in efficient working order. We have carefully ascertained that every item of expenditure chargeable to revenue, though not actually paid on the date on which these ac counts are closed, has been estimated and provided for, pre vious to striking the balance shown to be available for divi dend. It is very satisfactory to us, as it must be to the proprietors at large, to observe, that with an increased traffic receipt of 1,778!. Os. Id. over the corresponding period of the previous year (which was, no doubt, augmented by the Great Exhibition) the working expenses have been kept considerably below those of that half•year. It is also matter of congratulation that the effect of the judicious ap peals made ageing the undue taxation to which the com pany was subjected, is now manifest in a reduction of more than 400!. in the item of ' rates and taxes' in the last six months as compared with the same period in 1831. It will be seen that the cost of widening and enlarging the station here, has been kept distinct from all previous or other ex penditure on capital account. Signed, A LEIAN DER BE ATV?. and A. J.

LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY The directors of this company have just joined their report, to he submitted to the proprietors at the half- I yearly meeting on Wednesday next. It states that the net revenue far the half-year ending the 31st of Dote mber last amounts, after deducting interest on loans and all other preference charges, to 131,267/., to which is added 1,407/., the surplus from the 30th of June, ISI2, making 135,674/. applicable to dividend, troin which the directors recom mend that u dividend for the half-year, at the rate of 4 pi r cent. per annum, be drel,red, amounting on 6,745,3341. to 131,9271., laving 747!. to be eatried over to the next half-year. The extraordinary amount of traffic suit the unusually large receipts attributa ble to the Great Exhibition, during the currespording period of the preceding year, pros .of the arrival et a fair estimate of the progress of the ordinary traffic by a compari son with such an exceptional period. The corresponding period of 1850 will afford a letter criterion for judging of the results of the Ind hilt--year. The increase in the mile age over the corresponding period of 1850 is 9 miles, in I the number of miles run 111,510, in the receipt. for pas sengers 16,501, , in the receipts fur goods 7,779/., 'n sun dries 1,2761.; total increase in the receipts, 2,5.5191. The increase in the working expenses amounted to 5,3601., and in the taxation to 2,4021., which being deducted from the inc, eased receipts shows an increase in the net revenue of 11,7961. for the last helf-year, as compared with the coerce. pending period of 1850. Exclusive of rates and govern ment duty, the working expenses for the half-year ended the 31st of December, 1850, amounted to 35 . 90 por cent., it, 1811 to 30 . 91 per cent , and in the hell-year just mild to 3490 per cent., of the receipts. The receipts from the ordi nary traffic amounted to 257,0901., from season tickets to 5,7561 . , and merchandise 66,6621. ; total, 329,5081. The rolling :stock is represented to be in the most efficient state. fhs number of engines and car riages of all descriptions is greater, and that of those under repair is smaller, than at any former period. The consump tion of coke during the half-year has been 9,165 tons, being at the rate of 191 b. per mile, and is less by 1,036 tons, or 4.61 b. per mile per engine, than the consumption of the corre-podding period el the year 1850, notwithstanding the mileege has been greater by 111,510 miles. A portion of the permanent way near London has been relaid, the cost of which is charged to revenue. There has been no loss of life to any passenger on this railway during the past year, ani the railway has continued exempt from any accident of moment. In December, 1850, the surplus property of the company was estimated at 157,573/. ; since that period there has been received for sales 27,113!.; whereof 10,3311. has been realised during the past year. Notwithstanding these sales, the annual rents of the company's property barn in creased from 8,9471. ending December, 18.51, to 9,8611. ending December, 18.32, being a rent of about 71 per cent. on the estimated value. A shed capable of containing nearly 200 carriages has been completed at Falconbridge, Battersea, for 5,4001., and at Richmond a commodious station has been erected. The Belmont estate, adjoining the Nine Elms station, containing 31 acres, has been per timed, at a cost of 11,200/. ; this, from its long river front. age, will afford much greater facilities for carrying on the goods traffic. A contract with government for conveyance of emigrants for embarkotion at Southampton has been entered into, and accommodation provided at Nine Elms and Southampton. In conformity with the practice now adopted, certain expenses formerly chargeable to capital are paid oat of revenue; and during the last half year 5,4131. has been so charged, vii , 4131. for stations, &c., and 5,0001. for augmentation of the rolling stock. The re venue of the half-year is burdened with 1,6141. on account of bad debts, and with 1,7271. for back allowances to car riers, as formerly arranged. Revenue has been f ur the r charged in this half year with 3,077!., Ming the amount of defalcations duo from the late traffic manager's department. In addition to the above charms on revenue is enumerated the sum of 1,2331. for government duty on the receipts from firs: and second class passengers, although carried at fires not exceeding Id. per mile, and the board trust that railway companies will unite in an effort to induce parlia ment to remove an exaction contrary to the spirit of the law. The proprietors will have to consider whether they will authorise the board to take up the project from Wim bledon station to Mitcham 21 miles in length, solely as a branch to Mitcham, upon the understanding that the gua rantee Ia 1,000!. per annum. The Not tit and South-Western Junction line is now ready for pubiie traffic. The directors propose to ce-operate with the Brighton Company in taking the necessary preliminary steps for introducing a bill into parliament fur amalgamating the two companies, and a bill has accordingly been prepared. The directors believe that a complete union end identification of the interests of the two companies might, under proper arrangements, be very beneficial to the proprietors in both undertakings, and also very conducive to the public interests. Since the last meeting of the prcprietors Mr. W. J. Chaplin, M.P., has reigned the office of chairman to the company, and the lion. F. Scott, M.P., has been elected in his place. Mr. J. Hibbert, jun., has succeeded the Earl of Morley as deputy-chairman. The directors who retire by rota don are the Count Eyre and M. M. Useable, who, being eligible, offer themselves fur re-election. There aro also two other vacancies in the board, and the following gen tlemen, duly qualified, have also severally declared their intention to become candidates for election, :—Mr. G. Best, Mr. C. Castleman, Mr. T. W. Helps, Sir R. Jervis, Captain J. G. Johneton, Mr. A. Kay, and Mr. W. P. Snell. A special report states that the directors had vigorously prosecuted the works on the line between Ba singstoke and Andover ; and, in order to prevent the recur rence of vexatious legal proceeding., and to enable the directors to protect the property of the company, they re commend that steps be taken to resume the works on the line between Andover and Salisbury, a distance of 171 miles, the land for nearly 15 miles of which was purchased for 38,0001., and nearly 33,0001. had been deposited for it, so that a comparatively limited extent of land remains to be bought or paid for, if the works are resumed. The capital amount to the 31st of December last shows that 8,728,7911. had been received, and 8,670,034:. expended, leaving a balance of 58,7561. The debenture account shows that 2,131,8681. had been borrowed to the 31st of December last, of which 331,358!. was borrowed at 5 per cent., 68,1001. at 41 per cent., 1,0001. at 41, 1,051,4001. at 4 percent., 88,7001. at 3f, 305,400!. at 31, and 299,0001. at 3 per cent. per annum. The total share capital authorised, irrespective of preference stock, is 7,434,050!., of which 6,744,7141. is entitled to dividend, 431,3931. consists of shares in the hands of the company, 239,5421. uncalled, and 14,400!. in non-converted Gosport shares. The revenue account for the half-year ending the 31st of December last shows that 333,9951. had been received, and 134,9891., or 40.97 per cent., expended, including rates and taxes and government duty, amounting to 19,9891., or 6.07 per cent., leaving the net revenue 199,006!., oust of which 52,8771. is deducted for interest on loans and preference shares, and 11,8611. for plant allowances to carriers and for defalca tions, leaving 134,2671.
