Yesterday, after our report left, Mr. SAMUEL GURNEY said he was one of those guilty capitalists who were interested in the funding system of this country, and although be fully concurred in the terms of the resolution, be was not prepared to agree ll "n all that had been said upon it. He approved of the motion which the hon. member (Mr. Cobden) had lately made in the House of Commons, with a view to cut down the army and navy estimates to the extent of ten millions sterling; and in his (Mr. Gurney's) opinion, if the legislature were governed by a Christian spirit that motion would have been carried. He fully coincided in the opinions which had been expressed respecting the con sequences arising from the national debt, for he klt that an interest, which amounted to about 30 millions a year, must operate as a check upon our national advancement, and as an obstacle to the carrying out of tree trade in all its per fection. Mr. Gurney then proceeded to expatiate upon the evils of war, and observed that he was firmly convinced that a better condition of safety could be ensured by the preservation of peace than by the encouragement of an armed force. Mr. COBDEN, M.P., was glad to find that their friend Mr. Gurney had given hisemphatic approval of the terms of the resolution. Circumstances of course rendered it quite impossible for him (Mr. Gurney) to enter into any details upon the subject, and the same considerations would pre vent him (Mr. Cobden) from going fully into the question. There was, however, a prospect of a loan that was to say if _ _ ____ they might judge from public rumour) being required from this country by a government which was at this moment The inquest on the four unfortunate sufferers hp an explosion of earburetted hydrogen gm, at Cheeky, near violating every one of those principles on which this Con lin-ewe, un Monday, was third tor Wednesday ; and we Ifs was beset—a government which was maintaining an army at so enormous an expense that the country was are now in possession of more full and accurate information respectin the melancholy event than could be obtained at doomed to bankruptcy .

Yesterday the ordinary half-yearly meeting of this company was held at the Bridge Howse Hotel, London. bridge, for the several pitman of the undertaking ; to determine spa the esaaolon into stock of mak at the Eighth Simi D, emceed ea the 19th day of A 1140111iiih muds the am118 6 418 :72 114. 4.11 le confirm the forfeiture of certain Aires, pm whisk the Galls have not been paid, and which, ememaeon thereat, have been declared duly forfeited noise veteute of the baud of directors." The meeting was vevy 'numerously attended. The chair wee occupied by SAXIMI, Lux°, Egg., the chairman of the board of directors. The SeettETALLY having read the advertisement convening the meeting, and the seal having been affixed to the regis ter of shareholders, The CIIAIRSIAN proceeded to observe that the report (a summary of which appeared in the Express of the 17th inst.) would, as usual, be taken as read, as it had been in the hands of the proprietors for some time. In moving that that report be received and adopted, he would trouble the shareholders with very few observations, because the principal topics of interest had been pretty fully adverted to in the document in question, and also because this half yearly meeting took place at what might be called the broken period of the year. It was well known that it was only when the full results of the twelve months' working were before them that the directors could enter into a fair ' companion of the receipts and expenditure. The principal result was very satisfactory, that being the steadily pro gressing Menaiso of the traffic. Three years ago—in 1848, ler instance—when the line now in operation was com pleted, the income for the year was only 410,4791. Since then the directors had opened no new branches, with one ur two inconsiderable exceptions, and, therefore, the present increased traffic was the result of the gra dual development of the line. That traffic, during those three years, had increased by upwards of 100,0001. This year it would probably reach 070,0001. ' thus showing an increase of 120,0001. upon that of 1848. Although they were exposed on this line to great vicissitudes—a wet day, like the present, for instance, affecting their receipts 20 per cent—still it was most gratifying to rind that the increase had been steadily progressing, contrasting hslfyear by half-year. A few items would show what had been done. In the first half-year of 1848 the increase over the corre sponding period ut the preceding year had been 6 per cent. In the next hall-year it was nearly 9 per cent. In the next 9} per cent.; in the next 61 per cent. ; in the next 7 per cent. ; and, in the hail-year just concluded, it was 91 per cent. Indeed, the half-year just con cluded was the best half-year they hail ever had, because in that time they had received the largest per cent age increase ' and the largest amount of positive receipts, which it hed ever been their good fortune to realise. There had been an increase of 40 per cent. iu the number • . UM to 17,110 W. in ISSI ; and the number of their casual passengers had also increased. During the same period the dividend, which iu the first half-year of 1818 had been 265. per cent., or 13s. per share, rose in the corresponding half year of DWI to les. ful. Then, it advanced iu 18d0 to 135., and for the half-year just concluded the directors felt themselves warranted iu raising it to Ifts. ; so that, whether they looted at the line with reference to the increase of the truffle, or the advance of the dividend, the last half year was unquestionably the best they have hitherto en joyed. (near.) It was extremely satisfactory to bear iu mind what he had said befure, that the Increase of tragic was toe result of the development of the ordinary line, and that it was nut owing to the great Exhibition, which had not produced any very favourable effects so far as the receipts on the Brighton railway were concerned. This, indeed, was naturally to be expected, because although the North Western and Great Western lines, as the great mediums of communication b e t ween the provinces and the metropolis, might very fairly be exiZtted to benefit, as they bad benefited by the Exhibition, still the Brighton lino was after all only the channel of communication between one county of England (Susses) and London, and that line must in a great measure depend on the pleasure traffic out of the metropolis. Therefore, while the other railways had gained considerably during the summer months of 1831, the Brighton hue had perhaps rather suffered by the overwhelming attractions of the Ex hibition, which had kept not only the people but the money in town. Still, they were getting their fair share of what was going, fur great numbers were travelling up in the morning, and returning in the evening, although Brighton was by no means as full of visitors this year as it had been in former seasons. At the same time, as was stated in the report, the average in crease over the corresponding period of 1850, which, during the tint four months of this year, had been Ma per week, had, since the opening of the Exhibition on the Ist of May, been only 4601. per week. Whether the steady increase tit traffic would continue was of course • matter of , eeculation. It seemed to him that so long as London and Brighton continued to progress that increase might very reasonably be expected to gu on. As regarded the future prospects of the Dieppe route, he could only my that the direetths had placed it on the best foot ing by having got private and independent par ties to run the bents ; at the same time, it was not to be denied that even such parties would nut continue to run their boats unless they saw • fair prospect of realisiug money by the enterprise. He thought he could himself see has way to the making of from 10,0001. to 12,0001. a year by the teethe thus brougut upon the Brighton line across the seas ; and, if so, that ill itself would be no inconsiderable set oaf against t he competition of the South Easter.. Company at Hastings. (Hear.) As regarded the expenses fur the half year, the amount expended tor renewals had been altogether 11,8001., being about the same as it was for the corresponding half-year of ItSli). The expense of the locomotive power had increased, because there had been an increase of mileage. In the carriage and waggon department the charge this half-year was below the average, principally because the stock Wail in good condition ; but t his particular head of expense would probably fall heavier in the next half-year, when they would be able to bear it, as their re ceipts would then be larger. As regarded the capital ac count—a feature of great interest to them all—the share holders, he was sure, would give the directors credit for having in 1848 made • careful estimate. The directors had done all they undertook to do by that esti mate, and they now found themselves within the margin of the final amount of capital they had at that time amnia pated. lle need scarcely inform them that himself and his co directors had strenuously opposed the audit bill of last session. They had thereby incurred much responsibility, and they were anxious to ascertain now whether that responsi bility was shared in by the proprietors. That billattempted to impose certain compulsory conditions upon them ; and they resisted it because it was entirely uncalled for and opposed to the views of the independent delegates whom the share holders had themselves appointed to consider the question. If shareholders would be fools, and if directors would be knaves, nothing could protect them • but if trustworthy men were elected, both as directors and auditors, and if full and satisfactory accounts were insisted upon, then the shareholders would occupy the beet possible situation, and any act of parliament on the subject was neither more nor less than a downright humbug. (Applause.) After some conversation, the report was adopted. Cross the motion of the CHAULMAN, a dividend after the rate of If. 18s. per cent. for the half year, payable on the 6th of August, was declared. The eighth shares 1), on which the calls had been paid, were then consolidated into stock, and those upen which the r calls had not been paid were forfeited. i The proceedings terminated with the usual vote of thanks r to the chairman and directors. ITHE LAW OF EVlDENCE.—Yesterday Lord Broug- Foon's bill, u amended in committee of the House of Com mons, was printed. A new clause has been added to save expense in criminal prosecutions by allowing a copy of a former conviction, for which &s. 841. is to be paid, to be received in evidence. The principle of this bill, which will shortly become an act of parliament, is to admit parties to suits in the superior courts to be examined as witnesses in court. if a party is to be examined on his own behalf, he must give prior notice to the opposite side. Such examina tion is not to be made in CANS of adultery or breach of pro num of marriage. ADMIRALTY, JULT 24.—APPOINTMENTS.—Lieu tenant H. Boys, Surgeon C. B. Brien, Assistant-Surgeon H.

Tim LAW OF BURIAL—Some months ago, says a correspondent, a memorial addressed to the Archbishops and Bishops of the provinces of Canterbury and York upon the present unsatisfactory state of the law of burials, was extensively circulated amongst the clergy. The result is, that about 4,000 of this body have attached their signatures thereto, and the committee who were charged with the management of it have presented it to the archbishops and bishops. No official reply has yet been given, but it is understood that many of the right rev. prelates have signi fied their willingness to attend to the requisition, and have expressed their approbation of its object. RAILWAYS. THIS DAY. Two o'Ciooi. The reaction in shares continues, the I;W:if*, ruling having brought in a much larger proportion of orders to purchase. The market to-day wears a decidedly better appearance, and quota tions have again assumed a higher range, at which they seem firm. In nearly every case where busiuess has been done higher figures have been conceded, but the improvement is most peroep tible in Lancashire and Yorkshires, Midlands, Lon don and North Westerns, South Eastern, Berwicks, York andNorthMidlands, and Caledonians. Brighton shares have been little affected by the proceedings at the meeting.

The business in the English fai;da" to-day has again included a fair amount of operations for invest mcnt, both on public and private account, and prices have been firmly supported. There have also been a few time purchases in Consols at a higher figure than for some days past. The advices from Paris of yesterday evening notice additional strength and an improvement in the French funds, the . continued firmness of which is regarded with much satisfaction, as a proof of the confi ' deuce felt by monied menin the stability of the government, the more especially as the attention of parties inclined to " bear ' in this market has of late been mainly directed to the other side of the channel in search of support to their operations. Consols have been very steady all day at yester day's range of 964 to I for money, 961 to for the 12th of August. The prices of business arc officially reported as follows:—Three per Cent.

The number of miles open was, in 1831, 3,617 1 ,, and in 1850, 3,3334, showing an in crease of 2014 miles, or 71 per cent. The average return per mile per week was, in 1831, 091. 155., and in 1830,591. 14s. 9d., showing a difference of full 101. per mile in favour of the present year. Among the chief lines there is a very remarkable augmentation in the London and North. Western, South Western, Great Western, South Eastern, and Brighton. The North Western return must be regarded as peculiarly good, as it has for some weeks stood steadily at its present high range. The sudden rise in the Great Western and London and South Western is in a great measure owing to the Royal Agricultural Society's show at Windsor, whilst the receipts on the former line have been further swelled by the Abingdon and Itsley Races. The last year's return of the South Western, with which the present is compared, was also a good one, as it included the Salisbury Races. The Mid land still shows a decrees*, although there must have been a considerable accession of movemenharising out of the anniversary of the opening of the Arbore tum at Derby. which is regarded as one of the greatest annual festivals of the Midland Counties, cheap ex cursion trains running on all the lines leading to Derby. The return on this line in both years also includes the Nottingham races. The falling off in the Midland receipts is doubtless partly attributable to the ruinous competition which it is now carrying on with the Great Northern in certain districts.
