RAILWAY MEETINGS. GREAT NORTIIEILN RAILWAY liesterdarthe eleventh half-yearly ordinary general meeting of this company was held at the Leaden Tavern, sad was most numerously attended. Eourio Dimmole, Eag l . P the Chairman of the board of director*, pm eidd The report and statement of accounts, which appeared la the Fares, of blonday last, having been taken as read, The CBAIUMAN proceeded at considerable length to address the proprietors. ilc commenced by stating that on the day after their last haltycarly meeting her Majesty and Prime Albert travelled :door the line, on their way to Scotland, as far as !teamster, where the directors took leave of the royal family • and had the honour of hearing the Queen and Prime expecte their entire satisfaction with the airrengements made fur their transit and aticommodatius. 'the directors hoped that her Majesty would again do them the honour of travelling over their line when next she visited her northern sub. juts. Ile was happy to say that public opinion still pro greeted in favour of the vempany. The' general receipts for the last six months had considerably exceeded those of the erred ding hallyear, having amounted to the large sum of 315,6501. The traffic had inereared at the rate of about 3.0004. per week. lie had every memos to expect that this integre would continue to °turreted, it met immassid, and he was rather dispueed to think that he Ma eimelia Si • few months it would be found steadier as this am la elle (Aber line in the kingdom, because of the eaten ef tae goods and mineral mile which they enjoyed.

The ezeursiosibMas would account fur it in a still further degree. Upon the whole, however, he must say that taking the receipts and expenditure together for the whole six mouths the result was to him most utietaetory. (Hear, bear.) The dint-toes felt that the °Seer who managed their locomotive depart meut hail dischareed his duty satisfsetorily sad eMciently, sad they had received many piooh of the great civility—a cheap commodity at all times—which bad bees minced by their numerous servants. (lieer.) The balsas* availlabbs for dividend was 63.7471., and the director. I,IIIIMMNI that that sum be divided after the rate of cent. per annum, payable us sad after the of March, which would have a balsam of 4111NL to be curried to the neat half year's seem& Under all the circumstances he conaidered this a fait mid liberal dividend. There had been no attempt Mil IS the part of the beard to "cook" the accounts. Theme were amounts outstanding, fur instance, which would iles doubudly come to the credit of the proprietors hereafter, but which were not included in the present statement, be- cause they were a. yet unsettled. Besides, the board had charged the. account with 27.0001. for half the interest oa the money which had hitherto remained unproductive. Had they wished to present a very flourishing statement, theu things would out have been done, but, as the had clearly earned upwards of two and a half per cent per annem Le hope el the divide nil would, with these explodes tied., be cluertully accepted. lltar.) Ile was happy to that, after many intertiew. with the Eastern Comities Company, the directors of the Great Northern bad at hue settled toe buis of an agreement for a term of 14 yews, which he truitSl would prove mutually beneficial ; sad, it were not mullially beneficial, he should net have adegeld it, because he was quite sure that arrengements of a MIM teary nature /Adorn proved satisfactory to either of the put ties. Perhaps some of the shareholders might be of opinion that the payment of 20 per cent. by the Great Nor thern Company from the earnings of the Eastern Counties traffic sent from Peterborough to Newark, Lincoln, and hull, and certain other Elects north of these towns, was too high ; but if so—sad he admitted it wu high—let it be borne in mind that hy the transfer of the Routes sad Ilitehin and Sliepreth Extension line to the Ea-tern Cum ties, to be worked by that company between Cambridge mail Ifitchin, in conceited with Great Northern trains,:thet rammed rent to which the Great Northern was habbetand interest, together 16,500/. a year, would have to be geld by the Fotaterh Counties Company. lie believed, u WWI said before, that the serum ment would be mutuallt il b s e i r i ticial, and that a harmony bad now been esta between the two companiew, which would be of the greeted value to both. (Hear.) With regard to the East Anglia' Company, the report stated that the directors of the Great Northern had agreed to band over to them any balance of receipts, after repaying all outlay; and so that matter was adjusted. (lies, hear.) With regard to the arbitration undertaken by Mr. Gladstone, between this company and the London and North Western and Midland companies, he (the chairman) wished to set himself right upon a point respecting which it was said that he had mule a very considerable mistake. Whenever be found himself' wror.g, he was quite ready to acknowledge his error ; but, in the present instance, he fancied he would be acquitted of having committed Rey great offence. What be had said was, that he bad made a proposal to have the matters in dispute referred; and, in saying this, it wee al leged that be had taken credit to himself for having made a proposal which in reality had emanated from others. I Now, the facts were these Two or three days prior to the 2nd of April laid, he had nut the rectors connected with the London and Meth I Western Company, but being unable to come any arranarnient, they parted. some gentlemen in the House of Couinions then spoke to him about a reference, and, smutted others, Mr. Hudson. (A laugh.) On the 2nd of April he was forwarded • letter, enclosing one from Mr. Stewart, in whiz,' a reference to two gentlemen, named therein, was proposed. lie (the chairman) refused to refer the matter to the two gentlemen in question, but be pro posed at onee to refer it to Mr. Gladstone, and accordingly • letter to this effect was written to Mr. Wyo. Ile hoped that he had nut committed any great offence in making that proposition ; at all events, the proposition itself would show the shareholders and the public that he was bona Ale anxious to refer all matters in dispute to • competent and impartial tribunal. Mr. Glyn said he was perfectly satisfied, and thus the matter was ultimately re ferred to Mr. Gladstone, and it became sub judice. Mr. Gladstone bad since signed his award, and he decided as follows, " in order," us he said, "to prevent the injuries arising from the competition of two such powerful compa nies." la order to judge of the decision, it would be neces sary to state the condition. the Great Northern Company asked, what the London sod North Western Company pro- posed to give, and what Mr. Gladstone had awarded. fhe London and North Western Compel' proposed to give the Great Northern 70 per cent. with respect to the pas senger tragic from York ; the Great Northern wired h 0 ; Mr. Gladstone gave them 80.

The subject was discussed by the directors of the Great Northern board, who sea demned the practice and refused to follow it ; and a meet ing took place before Mr. Gladstone with the view of weer tenting his opiates of the matter. Captain Iluish and Mr. Swift attended it and defended the conduct pursued. Mr. Gladstone said he was glad the Great Northern had given notice to the Leaden and North-Western that they were going to reduce the fares during the Doncaster races, that the redaction as the part of the former was a matter of po licy, bat that, with only 5 per cent. interest, for the Lon dos sad North•Weetern to make the reduction was moat improper. (Hear. bear? lie then said that small as the awarded' live per teat. u a, he regietted he had given it, the traffic was so clearly the Great Northern's, but that he did so is order to carry out • calculation he had made, and t h o arl e.vent mace kitly ri°" e°nardfittoicu. (H e ar.) g i ti ti offi tath eer: far as to he referred to from time to time, t • see that . the award was bone ,%de adhered to. The chairman then pro ceeded to read extracts from the speech of Mr. Glyn, de livered at the London and North-Western meeting as yester day week, commenting upon them he proceed ed, and giving that gentleman credit for being a highly honour able man. Ile did not believe that Captain Iluish and Mr. Swift could have told Mr. Glyn of what Mr. Gladstone had said at the meeting to which he had just alluded, because, if he did, an apology was due from his company, and a case of re-booking, which had occurred last week, would not have taken place. A PROPRIETOR burr cited an instance of the opera tion of the re-booking system, showing that by paying first to Northampton, and then from Northampton to London, the sum of 64. was saved. The CHAIRMAN said hi. object wee to prevent the pro party of the Great Northern Company from being frittered away. He was anxious to obtain sound, fair, and honour able terms, sad he would nut be frightened into the making of wareasasable committal.. If the Loudon and North Western Compaq y would give up trestles hostile to the Great Northers, he should bass no difficulty in agreeing_ to • leftism. to respectable sad disinterested parties. If Mr. Glyn made an arrangemnat snip with the Midland, there would be no cause to sempialei, but be bag further, sad made arrangemests with sdie Lancashire sad Yorkshire, for incest--w leak MOM nateirally ears upon the Great Northern line. Is elm , elusion, he left the London and North-Western Cosa , to take the best care they could of thcswelves, and he promised to do the same by the (treat Northers. (Hear.) A long conversation ensiled. It was complained that the , coal traffic was unprofitable, and that several of the stations were useless. The agreement with the Eastern Counties was approved by some sod objected to by others; arid it was contended that the compose was not in a posi t tion to subecribe • sum not exceeding 1,0001. per year to establish • provident societ) and benevolent fund. The CHAIRMAN said the average expense per mile of running the Great Northern trains was If. Os. 7W., and that they had travelled over 2,0110,009 of miles during the half.year, Some of the stations had been established ex necessitate ter, and no doubt the direct receipts from thews were saremunerative. Ile contended that the coal intic was Wry seinunerstiVe rtliattie -agreement with the Eastern Counties would save this company 16,0001. • year, and be • beneficial one (or both parties; and that the esta blishment of a provident society was • judicious arrange meat for the men u will as fur the shareholders. Mr. BAXTEIt, the law clerk, gave au explanation to the meeting, which was considered satisfactory, of the circum stances under which the company bad resisted the payment of certain expenses to which an excursionist had been sub jected, who had arrived at Doncaster by a late train, and had hired a carriage to convey himself home to Barnsley. The report of the director, was then adopted, and the four retiring directors—namely, the Chairman, Mr. Bare, Mr. fine, and Mr. Austell—a ere re-elected. A dividend after the rate of 2} per cent. per annum was declared. 1001. (or the moral and religious instruction of the work men was voted, and the directors were authorised, at their discretion, to subscribe a sum, not exceeding 1,0001., towards the formation of the provident society. The meeting was then made special, at which the direc tors were authorised to promote a bill in parliament, to en able the South Yorkshire lt.iilway and River Dun Com pauy to transfer their undertaking to the Great Northern ernßailway. The proceedings terminated with the usual vote of thanks to the chairman. THE NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY. THE MIDLAND AGREEMENT. The half-yearly meeting was held in Leeds, on Thursday, the proposed agreement with the Midland Com pany being one of the subjects to be brought under the consideration of the shareholders; IiIINKY ALCUCC, Esq., took the chair. The report of the directors, from which we give some extracts, was read. "The further SUM of 27,483/. 12s. 6d. has been paid on capital account, making the total sum expended up to 31st December, 18.51, 1,01.5,8891. 19'. Bd. The liabilities of the company on the 31st December last, with the estimated sum required fur works in course of construction, and for legal and parliamentary expenses, amounted to 113,1971., which slam might be raised by a call of 11. • share, the arrears of calls on shares, and loans on deben ture. The grossreceipts on revenue account for the half year have been 18,6401. ss. 6il , against 14,178/. 2s.

Id. to be carried forward to the credit of the account on the lit January, 1852." The CHAIRMAN, after a few explanatory observations on the report, moved that it be received and adopted, which was agreed to. The other resolutions, comprisinf the forfeiture of a number of shares, advancing Mr. V. heloa's salary to 5001. per annum, reducing the directors allowance from 6001. to 4001. a year, and re-appointing Mr. R. Frost, one of the auditors of the company, were adopted. The meeting was then made special, for the purpose of considering the proposed agreement with the Midland Rail way Company, fur the working and maintenance of the INorth Western line. The Sccaar►at read the heads of the proposed agreement as follows : 1. The Midland Company to purchase the whole of the rolling stock and plant of the North-Western Railway Company. 2. TM Midland to work and maintain the railway and works for a period of 21 years. 3. If any general renewal of the permanent way should become necessary during the term, the North Western to Sod new rails, chain, sleepers, &c., in exchange for the old ones, and the Midland to find labour and carriage. 4. The North-Western to receive one-half of the gross receipts up to 26.0001. per half-year, and two-thirds of any excess beyond that amount. 5. The North- Western line to be worked in every respect as a part of the Midland Railway. 6. The Midland to pay to the North-Western its mileage proportion upon all teethe to which as the nearest and legi timate route it is entitled, and which may be diverted from it by any agreement which the Midland Company have already made or may hereafter enter into with any other parties. 7. All questions of difference arias. eat of the agreement to be settled by arbitration. Considerable discussion having taken plate, the following resolution was carried .—"That this meeting be adjourned - , to be held at this place on Wednesday, the 17th March neat, at twelve o'clock in the forenoon ; that the considera tion of the proposed agreement wit► the Midland Railway Company, submitted to this meeting, be referred to the fa/lowing committee, with power to confer with the direc tors at this oseopany thereon ; and that the committee be requested to report to the stemmed meeting whether it is desirable or set to adopt the proposed agreement—the fol. lowing gentlemen to be the committee, via., Messrs. A. M. Pries, J. Wikiason, Henry Newbold, Isaac Buskin, Joseph dill, Robert Barr, Henry Watson, John Sangster, and L. H. Pegler." A vets of thanks to the Chairman concluded the business.

Clanallier Cobbold, li.q., the chairman of the bo ar d o f dipolar% took the ebs ir. 'rhe chairman moved that the report be rosseived and adopted ; whereupon Mr. Saunders, the late saerotary, complained that he was grievously calum niated in the document; but after some conversation, the matter droyyed.—Mr. Lechmere then moved, as an amend meat, that the report being unntisfsetory, the further con sideration of it do stand over till the 2nd April, and that, is the meantime, Mr. Quitter's report be printed, sod cir culated among the shareholders.—Mr. &holey seconded the motion.—The Chairman said there was no wish on the part of the directors to hold back anything from the proprietors. He therefore felt called upon to object to the word "unsatis factory" in the amendment.—Mr. Cayley, M.P. vindicated the correctness of the accounta.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—TEFIERDAY. Moos/ Ma. Comnamerai IN RS MACLIOD.—Tms NIPAULZION ENDAIST. This wss the certificate osetiag in the ease of D. Macleod, described as • merchant, of Tirhoot. Bengal, and afterwards of Ealing, in Middlesex. He bad also acted as secretary . to the Nepaalese ambassador, during the visit of that distin , gtshed ubl tnetion hed on sr a y . to ore t this country. The han one occasion. il a i c . co d u e c ts ts w ha e v re e 3,3;r., assets about 9001. Mr. Linklater, who appeared for the bankrupt, said there was no opposition on the part of the assignees or any one else, and there were peculiar circumstances in the case which would, he thought, induce the court to consider that it was one in which • tirst-class certificate ought to be granted. The bankrupt, who was a barrister in India, practising is the native courts, and reaping a large profes sional income, was induced, in February, 18.50, to accom pany the Nepaulese ambassador to this country as mercury and interpreter. That position had entailed upon him the necessity of incurring a considerable amount of expenditure. During the absence of the prince on his visits to European states, one of his brothers, who was left in command of the army, had listened to or encouraged charges against the prince, to the effect that he had lost caste by associating with Europeans; that he was beieg influenced by them ; and that ho had forsaken the Hindoo With. The other brother of the prince, left in the position of Prime Minister, had discouraged any plot to influence the fidelity of the army ; but although the Commander-in-Chief had been removed there had been such a moral influence exer cised over the prince in respect to his permitting himself to be under the alleged influence of Europeans, that the bank rupt had not received that consideration which he might reasonably have anticipated for his services. He had full expected that the expenses referred to would have been paid him in addition to his salary, which was not great. It seemed the Nepaulese l'rince had intimated to him that be could no longer retain him in a position so near to him self, and that he was unable, in consequence of political circumstances, to defray those expenses which he should otherwise have felt bound to discharge. The consequence was that the bankrupt, who, at • very short notice, had brought his family over to this country, had lost a sum of 9121., which he had expended during his attendance on the prince, and had incurred other charges, which had contri buted to his downfall. The result was that he was now owing debts to the amount of 3,0001., and the property to be realised was comparatively small. The Commissioner—What are those losses of 1,0601. ? Mr. Linklater said they had aria n wholly on the realisation of his property. Mr. Cannon, the official assignee, said the bankrupt's statement was that he had sold off all his furniture and effects before leaving India, and that they had sold for so much less than he had paid for them; but the assignees had no means of checking that. Mr. Linklater said the goods were sold subsequent to his departure. In • letter which he had received from a friend, an officer in India, it was stated that 6,0001. would scarcely be sufficient compensation for the loss he had suffered. The Commissioner—He may take a second-class certifi cate. There is nothing sufficiently meritorious about the case to warrant • first•class certificate. Mr. Linklater—Will your honour permit the fees of the court to be returned to the bankrupt ? Mr. Csnnan—There are no assets here. What meets them are, are in India. His Honour said he would make the usual conditional order. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT.—YESTERDAT. Sanaa Ma. Justice WiLLIANS UNLAWFUL ADMINISTRATION OW MVOS. IL Smith and B. Dunn Christmas, two respectable look ing young men, surrendered to take their trial upon an in dictment for having administered to Ann Obee a certain noxious drug for the purpose of producing abortion. The evidence consisted of statements which have already ap peared in our police reports. The defence set up was the improbability of the girl's story, and the fact of her allowing so much time to elapse before she made the charge, and also that it was more than probable that the statement made by Christmas to the police was true. Several highly respectable witnesses gave Christmus a most unexceptionable character, and Dr. Eirkes, of Great Marlborough-street, said that Smith's employers were most willing to take him again into their employ. The jury, atter a short deliberation, Animated them. NEW COURT.—YESTERDAY Strom Tan Ramos*. Edward Staggles, 17, labourer, was indicted for shooting at Henry Barber, with intent to kill. The facts of the case, which have been recently before the public, were thee.: The prosecutor is connected with some chemical works at Bermondsey, and upon going over his premises at night had some acid thrown into his face, which, for the moment, prevented him from seeing ; bat, on clearing that sway, he saw some ass . going op a ladder, who, upon his following, fired at him twice. The first ball to'k off a portion o r his knuckle, and the second grazed his head sad shoulder. This was found to be the act of the prisoner, who had got into the place for plunder. Hu was foetid Guilty, and transported for te n yea, Just as this court was about to rue, Mr. Bodkin stated that it was not his intention to offer any evidence against the captain of the }familia Mitchell brig for the manslaugh ter by neglect of one of his crew, as it was quite evident that the captain had done all he could to prevent what they had suffered, and that the tempestuous weather had been the sole calms of the crew's sufferinp. An Accruileol was then taken. THE POLICE COURTS. MARYLEBONE. Sam. Dandy, aged 24, a servant out of place, was charged with having attempted to murder Mr. William Veale, eowkeeper of Acacia-road, St. John's-wood, by firing a pis tol at him. The circumstances of the attack were reported in this paper a few days ago. On Monday evening the prosecutor erne re t urn i ng t o town, with his horse and cart, by the Ealtgeware road, and about 20 minutes after 7, as he was walking on the footpath, near the four mile stone, to rest the animal, was fired at by the prisoner, who had passed him not long before. A number of small shot entered the back of his neck and head. No further violence wu of fered, and the prosecutor ran quay. The first person whom he encountered laughed at him upon hearing his story, and pared on. He shortly afterwards met a policerran, and gave him isformation, after which he obtained surgical sr andante. l'rosecutor having told these facts yesterday to the magistrate, The prisoner merely said, all the gentleman says is quite true. _ _ Sergeant Hillier, 27 5, said I was sent from Bushey, where lam stationed, in quest of the prisoner. I went nut in plain clothes and on horseback, having bad previously a correct description of the primmer, and in New port l'ag nell, to which plasm I had traced him, I saw him walking along the street. I passed him, and having gone a short distance alighted from my home, which I left in a stable yard. I waited till the prisoner came up. 1 then stopped him and asked him whin he tame from, and he said, (rem Melton Mon bray." 1 asked him has name, and he answered, " Charles Williams." I told him I wee an officer anal that he must consider himself in my custody ; and I then took him to the public house at which my horse had been put up, when I stated to him that he was apprehended for shooting a gentleman at Kilburn on Monday night. He remarked "Oh you must make a mis take ;" and he repeated that observation several times. I told him that whether it was a mistake or not I most take him back to London, and asked him if he had ant Uved in the neighbourhood of Newport Pavan some tints ago ; be said that he bad, and was in the Navies of the Rev. Mr. Teenaged. I task him to the policy station, and co FEBRUARY 28, 1852. scanting him I found in his pocket a pistol, which I have since esorrtained to be loaded with powder and shot. I also Wend on him one paper containing shot and percreasion ea" and another paper in which was some guapowder. Other witnesses proved that prisoner bad been cleaning the pistol an hour before Mr. Voile was shot, and that the shots found on him corresponded with thine extracted from the prosecutor's hand. The prisoner then said—l same to London as servant out of place. SUMP money was left me, and I that, got into a system of bettinft upon horse•racing. I lost my money, and afterwards got into thetervice of Mr. Detour, 23, Queen Ann-street, and white there I still continued betting. I was brought up before your worship for robbing my master. I was tried and senteuced to six months' hard labour, and on the 17th of this month 1 came out. I then went to Mr. Dufour, at his once in Oray'ninn, and asked him to give me a l ittle money out of the wages due to me to pass me into the country, but he would not give me a single tee thing. I obtained from • sister at Bushey • half sovereign, with which I bought the pistol, powder, te. I had no money to get a night's lodging, and I took the pistol to a blacksmith, who cleaned it for me, loaded it, and fired it off. I went from his shop at half-pest five. I loaded the pistol and then eamo as far as Kilburn Oats to return to Bushey, when I met the gentleman close to the four.mile stone. Just as I had fired the pistol, a dog passed. I then ran away about 30 yards, and saw that the gentleman was standing still. I observed some one coming up the path, upon which I made off over the hedge fur fear of being detected. A person passed, and as soon as he bad done so, I made off for the gentleman again to rob bins, but he had got out of eight. After that I returned to Bushey, where 1 stayed all night, and the next morning I went to Watford. I made no stoppage till I got to Newport I'ag nell, where I was taken into custody. _ . Mr. Broughton committed to Iriaotter for attempting murder. MARKETS.

COTTON.—Livtarooi, Fag. 27.—The sudden break up of Lord John Russell's administration has had a leas depressing effect on our cotton minket than was generally expected. Several counteracting circumstances, however, have tended to stave off such • result. For instance, the continued good state of trade throughout the country is becoming more and more felt—the facilities of our increas ingl) abundant money market more appreciated—the ad vice) from the United States, both as to prospect of supply and the steadiness of the various cotton markets of that country, gradually giving confidence to holders, and then last, though not least, the moderate scale of our present quotations, affording some scope for the speculators, ss well as being • safe investment for the daily consumers. Had we been otherwise placed, u to any of these circumstances, we should most likely have been able to record a decline in price ; as it is, we have to report the contrary. namely,• moderate advance. The advance, it is true, is very mode rate, bare id. in any instance, and that only in the more saleable sorts of the common run of American. Generally the advance may be regarded u 1.113 th on American, all other sorts being firm and steady.

Some thieves effected an entrance to the premises of Mr. Perks, iron merchant. They descended through the ceiling from an upper warehouse to the counting-house, in which was an iron safe. Having placed a quantity of gun powder in the keyhole, they ignited it, and an explosion, of course, followed. The chest was forced open, and the win dows and must of the framework about the apartment was shattered. Many papers were burnt, and the thieves took possession of a few pound., the contents of the chest. The explosion was heard by a policeman at some distsnee, but' everything being quiet in the neighbourhood, he could not discover from which house it proceeded, and the thieves escaped detection. OUARD-SIIIP FOR THE DOWNS.—Orders have been lamed by the Admiralty to fit the London, of 90 guns, Captain the Hon. M. Stopford, now lying at Sheerness, in all respects as • sea-going ship. As soon as she is com pleted she will proceed to the Downs, to be there sta tioned as guard-ship, unless required for more active ser vice. ller duties there will be to enter volunteers either for particular or general service. A guard-ship at this place is extremely useful, the man-of-war's anchorage l LyZi Po close in to the Ooodwin that the lookout k e pt on can discover a ship on the sands long before the people at Deal, Kingsdown or ltamsgate can observe her. Signals are immediately Made by blue lights, rockets, and minute guns, when the luggers and foul weather galleys from the above-named places put to sea and give assistance. There has not been • guard-ship stationed there since 1831, but the Severn, Homilies, and Talavera, which were in the Downs from 1815 to 1831, rendere4 essential services to merchant ships of all nations thatlmfortunately got on Wees treacherous sands.
