The ball-yearly meeting of this company was held at Stoke-upon-Trenton Wednesday. Mr. T. BRA:Mlle; the chairman, presided. As abstract of the report has appeared in this Journal. The CRA/ILMAN said the traffic on the line continued steady, although, duriog the last few works, it had expe rienced a check by the sudden depression which had come over the iron trade of the district. report of the en ginger showed that the line we. gradually being renewed, and contained the following impotent remark :—"The use of steel rail. has not escaped erection, they bevies been in use on the company's has for about two years for points and ClVasine ; and, although the fi rst cost, as coot pared with iron, it very high, their adoption for suck purposes, accordion to our experience, Is attended with con siderable economy. The present cast of steel is, how ever, such as to preclude its general sae for rails for the roadway." He (the chairman) believed that though the application of steel rails was in its infancy, it was sus ceptible of great developmeot, and at soar future time, when the present prohibitory prices bad been reduced by competition to soinethiog like reasonable limit., there could be little doubt that the material would come into much more general me, He thee explained that the direc tors proposed to issue 100,0004 for the constructiou of the Leek line, by preferential shares at 5 per oat., the amount being too small for allotment among the shareholders. The financial condition of the company was vary eatisfactory. The directors, with the comsat of the shareholders, had taken steps which would prevent the Macclesfield, Bolling ton, and Mater line from being need in the future as • block line by any party hostile to the North Staffordshire. That line having been passed, it would improve the com munication between South Yorkshire and North Stafford shire, open up a shorter route from Sheffield to the ,oath-west, and strengthen the independent position of this compeer. The directors during the late session bad also obtained powers for constructing several lines of railway in the Audley district, which wee immensely rich is mineral wealth, and would no doubt is a few years contain a large iron-prodacieg population. The Chairman concloded by moving the adoption of the report. Mr. GODD•111) proposed as as amendment that that part of the report which recommended the creation of 100.0001. prefereetal stock be nut approved. . . The amendmeat was neciaired by a large majority.

The report of the directors, to be submitted to the half-yearly meeting on the 19th lost., hos been pub lished. The half-yearly amounts again show • large and general Mamas. in the traffic receipts ; and as the cost of working the additional traffic has been moderate, the profits of the half-year admit of • di.ideod being recommended the and a half per cent. per annum higher than the dividend paid twelve months ago. As compared with the correspond ingenod of 1863, the amount received for perinsegers, minerals, and cattle shows au ionethe of 286,1104 Edgehill and Gersten Sort 44 miles, was opened for traffic on the 15th February hat; the Merthyr and Tredegar extension, 44 miles, on the let March ; the Wiawick and Colborne branch, 24 miles, on the Ist August. The growing extent and importance of the passenger traffic of Liverpool render necessary extensive alteration and enlargement of the Lime-street statioa in that town. The property of the company comprises • valuable frontage, available and well suited for the site of an hotel. It woos.] not be expedient to dissever the land from the station property, Judas experi ence has proved that good hotels when established contiguous to. and conducted in connection with, railway stances, not only conduce to the owes- Moon of the public, and the derelopment of traffic, bat yield • good return on the capital employed—the di rectors are of opinion that the plans of the enlarged elation should include • suitable hotel, and aooordiogly • vote for the estimated cost will be submitted at the ensuing general meeting.
