FLORENCE, APRIL 11. To-day Signor Rattazzi communicated to the Chamber of Deputies the list of the new ministry, which does not differ from that already telegraphed, with the exception that the Portfolio of War is entrusted, ad interim, to General Pescetto, the Minister of Marine. Signor Rattazzi made a speech in which he said, " The aim of the ministry and of the parliament should be to at once se riously take into consideration those financial mea sures which are demanded by the country and by the necessity of restoring the public credit. No preoccupations exist for Italy abroad, we ought therefore to actively occupy ourselves with home affairs. Relative to administrative and. financial questions, that is, to the intro duction of reforms in the administration and the redistribution of the taxes, the ministry will follow the course traced out in the speech from the throne." He announced that the government would introduce bills for the reorganisation of the army, and would sanction the other reductions in the budget agreed upon by the committee. It would also bring forward bills for the conversion of the ecclesiastical patrimony, for the introduction of a regular system in the carrying on of public works guaranteed by the State and the credit establishments of the country. With reference to the late ministersal crisis, Signor Rattazzi announced that ho would reply to the interpellation of Signor Ferraris on that subject. SWITZERLAND. BERNE, APRIL 11.

FALMOUTH, APRIL 11.—The New York and Havre Company's United States steamship Guiding Star, from New York on the 30th ult., arrived here this after noon, with a large general cargo, 30 passengers, and 144,000 dole. in specie for France.

A similar result attended the attempted sale of some property in the same neigh bourhood ; the reserve price being 13,000/. (or 30/. the square yard), while the highest bid was only 3,300/. (nom OUR OWN COI ITALY. FLORENCE, Antic 7. Of course the news of our misfortune will have arrived, and will have been commented upon in the unfavourable sense in which alone English men can comment on it, long before this reaches you. I think that there is hardly anybody here— certainly no political party—that does not feel and admit the last change of ministry to be a misfor- ' tune. It is a misfortune quite irrespective of the qualifications or disqualifications of the late and of the new ministers, let those be what they may. And the commentary which foreign nations, and especially Englishmen, will not fail to make, is that Italy is showing herself, whatever else she maybe, to be unfitted for the special duties and requirements of parliamentary government. Here is the second ministerial catastrophe within a few weeks, and that in the face of circumstances imperatively ' requiring patriotic forbearance, mutual co-opera tion, and the postponement of personal suscepti bilities and petty feelings to the paramount consi derations for the national welfare. And the , worst feature of the matter is, that these changes of , front in the face of the hostile army of circumstances are occasioned by no sufficient or parliamentary reason. It is not that the country has condemned one political system or set of ideas together with the partizans of them, and that the supporters of an opposite policy are therefore to succeed to the duty of administrating the affairs of the nation. I Not a bit of it. We know nothing of any change of policy or principles which is embodied. in these changes of ministry. There is no overt and intelligent reason why Ricasoli should resign. A majority of the Chamber, stronger than he or anybody else had been inclined to expect, seemed disposed to give him all the support he could desire. Why did he and his cabinet resign ? Because, say the street and cafe quidnunc'', Baron Ricasoli recently promulgated a cabinet regulation the effect of which would be to concentrate all real power in the hands of the premier, and leave the other ministers mere clerks. But this is not so. For the gist of the promulgation in question had been law before, by virtue of regulations previously made in 1884, '65, and '66. Ay ; but the manner of the fiero Barone was haughty and offensive, in calling attention to and desiring a more exact observance of these pre existing regulations ; that is to say, that the motive for the destruction of the cabinet, under circumstances which most imperatively required that it should remain at its post to do the duty it had taken upon itself to accomplish, was mere pique and personal jealousy and petty resent ment. And all this cannot but be felt to be doubly ominous and of evil augury by those who are well acquainted with the course of Italian, especially Tuscan government in the old times, when last Italy tried her hand at self-government—in the days be fore the three hundred years of lethargic sleep from which she hassbrecentlyawakened. Thecauseswhich are impeding the possibilities of government now are terribly like those which used to make all good government impassible in old Florence : the same selfishness, the same quickness to mistrust and utter incapacity to trust any man, the same bitterness of hatred, the same readiness to sacrifice anything to the gratification of it, the same deter mination to pull down anything tall enough to over shadow one's self. The only real point of urgent interest is what the new—newest--finance minister will do. Signor Ferrara has the reputation of an able financier. But the antecedents of Signor Rattazzi are not re aasuring. In one sense it is well to see a ten dency to recruit the cabinet from the new blood of the Left, as indicated by the presence in the ministry of Signor Crispi. But severed from all indication of the policy the new men mean to pur sue, it remains to be seen whether this is to be re garded as a ground of hopefulness or the reverse. We have the celebrated United States turret ship the Miantonomah, with her consort, the Augusta, at Leghorn. Crowds have gone down from Florence to see this strange monster of the deep—doubly strange to these people. Nothing can exceed the kindness and courtesy with which the officers of both ships have received the throng ing guests, who have boarded them in an almost continuous stream. I was at a ball given on the deck of the Augusta, turned for the occasion into a most picturesque marquee, on Friday last ; and I do not think that I ever saw a festivity of the kind at which every one present seemed to enjoy themselves so heartily. The lads and lasses danced through the night " till all was blue " bluest of all the lovely morning star-spangled sky, beneath which the ship's boats carried us ashore when nobody could shako a leg any longer. ADMIRALTY, APRIL 11.—NAVAL APPOINTMENT. —Surgeon X T. Mortimer, to the Virago. ENGLISH AND SWEDISH BANE.—An extraordi nary general meeting was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, " for taking into consi deration the dissolution of the company, and the time, mode, terms, and conditions at, in, and on which such dissolution (if det e rmin e d o n) shall aka place, and for providing that the winding up shall be effected by the board of directors." Mr. John ston in the chair. The chairman, after referring to the circular intimating that the negotiations for the transfer of the Waness to the Scandinavian Credit Company bad failed, stated that having regard to the wish expressed by some shareholders at the meeting a fortnight ago, that the number of directors should be reduced in order to save expense, he proposed that two directors only should be appointed liquidators with whom should be associated two shareholders, to be named by the general body. He also recommended that they should fix now the remune ration of the liquidators. He moved that with a view to the dissolution of the company it be wound up voluntarily. SirJ. Bowling seconded this, and asked what amount the directors expected to return. The Chairman—From UM. to 19/. a share. The motion was carried unanimously. Messrs. E. Johnston and J. H. Johnson (directors), and Messrs. C. Bell and T. A. Mulkey, shareholders, were on the motion of Mr. Beaumont appointed liquidators. At the suggestion of Sir J. Bowring rt WWI agreed that the liquidators should receive for their services the same rate of remuneration that was now paid to the directors. Mr. C. Bell and Mr. Monkey, hawever, intimated that they , could only consent to serve on the condition that they • served gratuitously. The two directors appointed likewise stated that they did not look for any remuneration. The chairman stated that a confirmatory meeting would be ; necessary, of which due notice would be given. Thanks were voted to the chairman and directors, and the pro ceedings terminated.

The weather to-day was more favourable, for although the inoruing had a very forbidding aspect, towards noon the black clouds domed off, and had it not been for the strong wind which prevailed the afternoon would have been really pleasant. Before pneceeding to the course there was a meeting in front of the subscription rooms, for the purpose of settling, after which some speculation took place upon future events, details of which will be found appended to the running. Racing rommenced at half-past twelve o'clock with the Claret Stakes, which produced a couple of runners - the Maid of Ilaahfun colt and Auguste-the absentee from the three coloured being Lord Staneford's Rocs Odds of 6 to 4 were Mill on the French volt, and, as will be men from the appended return, the " talent" landed the odds, and the race, for the second time in succession, fell to the popular cutouts of Count Lagrange. It will be remembered that last year Gladiatenr walked over tor this race, and the "donkey-eater," Amidst/ens, saved his stake. The Biennial Stakes brought out a field of five runners, against eleven bat year. Imelda was elected favourite, 7 to 4 being freely taken, while Westwick, the reported trial-horse of Taraban, was backed at 2to 1. The winner however turned up in The Peer, and it was quite refreshing to see the popular - blue and gold belt' of that thorough sportsman, lord Stamford, borne in the van. Considering his WdaMp's recent run of ill-lack it Is not sur- prising that so few stood his representative, or that the horse was quoted at 20 to 1. There was a rumour of an objection on the ground of foul riding hut nothing came of it. The Abingdon Stakes which was looked upoo as a good thing for Belly Rom a Oily by Newmbister out of Birdhill's dam-rented in favour of Ninny, who was not en much fancied as WHAM/calk The followers of public form who stood the Duke of Newcastle's filly, landed their money, and despite her penalty, she was hacked for a good deal at sto I. The Handicap Plate, across the fiat, pro duced the largest field of the day, indeed of the week, being con tested by no fewer than seventeen runners, the Rene being is favour of Kamen and •Itannetert who was a good favourite. Clulnivere, who won this identical race last year with five pounds Tee r an she meted to-day, woe never looking lonnUable. The result showed the " talent" to have been singularly fortunate in their selection, as Python, the second favourite, was only defeated a head, Butler and Kenyon having a gal lant set-to. The quMtette of two-year-olds entered for the Sweepstakes over the Rowley HIM went to the poet, Speculum, the property of the lathe of Newcastle, whose stable has been in rare form during the welt, bad most friends, and was made a warm favourite at 7 toe. Again were the talent correct in their reckonings, Mr Arthur Edwards landed the colt an easy winner by a length. The Sweepstakes of 100 ann. ever the Ditch Mile followed, the absentee of the four coloured being Vauban, who was struck out at 2.51 . Taraban, who It was reported last week had won an extrao or idinary trial, and had I advanced into a mum prominent position in the Derby quota , tins, accordingly was chosen as the champion of the backers, the betting opening at 2to 1, closing at Bto4 on him. while 2to 1 was taken about Whirligig, indite/ to SO about Ithankca. The favourite laid well up until about a quarter of a mile from home, when Carroll called upon him, but he was dead beaten and rolled all over the course like a ; ship is a storm. The Aske Produce Stakes was walked over for by Smur de Chiusti and the Subscription Mate wen by the colt by Leamington out of Annie Laurie, who was claimed by Ma Wood, whose representative, Rase, ran second. The other • races require no comment. The betting on the Two Thousand was not very extensive on the course, but at the roonmht the con • clwaloa of the rams, Plaudit was made the medium of another &manna." One large speculator loudly offered sto I against him ; but there were plenty of takers and about £7OO was W eeded upon the Richmond colt. The same " operator" also laid £3,000 to 3.200 spinet him, and fourteen " fifties" were afterwards taken. Taraban, after his inglorious exhibition, went to any oe-1,000 to 3 being the nominal quotation Below will be found all the transactions which occurred upon future events : TBI ('Lang?

A. reported yesterday the goods and mineral engine -driven and firemen on the North-Eastern Rail way at Newcastle and Darlington have struck work. I To them must now be added the guards of the several trains, who have refused to act with new drivers, and ' who also have • grievance of their own requiring that the shall have fewer hours of labour, and that some es should have an increase of wages. The appre ension that the passenger drivers and firemen would follow the example set them by the other men has only been verified in a few oases, though on the 200 miles of the Stockton and Darlington Railway not only have the majority of the goods drivers turned out, but a large number of the passenger drivers also left work yester day morning, and much difficulty has been experienced in working the traffic on the line. The men on the latter line have no grievance of their own, but have turned out in support of their fellow-workmen on the North- Eastern. There have however, notwithstanding the defection of both d riven and guards, been found men enough to work the ordinary traffic, and yester day morning before ten o'clock about a down goods and mineral trains went forward from Darlington. It was found later yesterday that the report that the engine -drivers and firemen of the Stockton and Darlingtoa Railway had struck was correct, and the movement has taken more formidable dimensions en that line than on the North Eastern proper, as the greater part of the par senger as well as mineral drivers did not go on y esterday. About a dozen drivers, who were not in the union, how ever, were found to take all out trains from Darlington, but these trains due at Darlington from the several branches and different parts of the line failed to make their appearance, and the passenger traffic on the whole line, although the defection of the men was partially re paired, was seriously interfered with. In one instance a passenger train left Consett, and on arriving at Sunnyside near Bishop Auckland, the driver having left, the trait: with the unfortunate passengers had to remain some hours before they could be brotight on to Darlington. On the North Eastern line the passenger trains up to yeeter day afternoon had all been kept rousing, though on many of the engines new drivers were observed. The men have called a general meeting of their members for Sun day next. The President of the United Engine and Fire men's Union arrived in Darlington yesterday from Lc. tdon, r and has been consulting with the men. The strike vi the guards has entirely been sectional, and has in n i in stance extended to passenger trains. The turn-out of t e engmemen, fi remen, and guard has extended to the three branch lines from Hartlepool to Stockton, Ferryhill, and Sunderland. On all the sections the superintendents and foremen over the engine depart ments have been running the passenger trains, but the line connecting the two Hartlepools has not been employed during yesterday. One or two of the mid-day train were not run, and none of the mineral or merchandise trains. A cmantity of dab came in with the baste, and there being • risk in the transit, it was sold in town at lower rates. Fresh herrings were selling at 3s. per 120. Last night the North• Eastern Railway Company publialied as a notice that, owing to a strike of the enginemen, the ser vice of trains between Hull, Milford, and Leeds would be . limited to five trains from Hull and eight from Leeds and Milford per day. The trains from Hull to Leeds, Re., leave at 5 .50 a.m., 8.50 a.m., lff 40 a.m., 2.20 p.m., 4.10 p.m., and 8.30 pm. (mail) • and from Leeds, Mil ford, to Hull at 2.14 a.m. (Lien), 7.5 a.m., 9.45 am., 12.55 p.m., 4.45 p.m. (from Brough, Ferriby, and Hessle only), 5.10 p.m., 7.10 p.m., and 10.5 p.m. (from Milford only express). The train from Starke' to Hull are limited to three, and a like number in the opposite direc t tion, viz., at 6.40 a.m., 12.30 p.m., and 6.0 p.m. from Hull, and at 6.20 am., 11.35 am., and 4.40 p.m. from Scarbro'. The number of trains on the Market Weighton, Withernses, and Homan branches to Hull is also re duced. The North Eastern board has resolved to summon the instigators of the strike before the Newcastle magistrate,. If the proceedings are successful, they will do the same at other places. Notices have been issued that the time bills must be considered in abeyance. Trains are to run as may be found practicable. Goods received conditionally on tr.iins being run. INSTITUTION OP NAVAL ARCHITILTA. —The annual meetings of this institution commenced yesterday in the hall of the Society of Arts, John-street, Adelphi ; the Right Hon. Sir J. Pakington, the president, in the chair. After the reading of the annual report, which gave an unfavourable account of the financial position of the institution, the President delivered his annual address. While expressing his regret that the finances of the insti tution were not in a satisfactory state, lie believed he was warranted in using the language of congratulation with re gard to the action that had been taken by the council during the past year. As the society would shortly be compelled to leave their offices in Adelphi-terrace he wished to state that he had communicated with the Duke of Marlborough, as President of the Council, with the view of securing accommodation in one of the government departmenis . . He regretted that the reply be had received from his grace was of an unfavourable character, but he believed that considering the national importance of the institution there would at some future time be no difficulty in pro viding accommodation in Somerset-house. He would Bunted to the council whether it would not be worth while to make an application to the Admiralty for an annual grant, which he thought would be justified by the national objects of the institution. Referring to • report based upon the resolution passed by the members at their last meeting, relating to the safety of iron ships, and which was introduced in consequence of the wrecks of the London and Amelia. he said the attention of able and scientific men could not be given to questions of more im portance than those involved, namely, the architectural skill with which our passenger ships were constructed, and the state of the law with regard to that portion of our subjects who are compelled by their vocations to cross the seas in those ships. The committee, under the presidency of Sir Edward Belcher, held fourteen sittings, and entered carefully and elaborately into the questions which came before them, and their deliberations ended in the adoption of a series of suggesti , ms which were embodied in their report. It was the unanimous opinion of the committee that the state of the laws affecting passers , gen should be made the subject of inquiry by a royal com. mission. Alluding to the School of Naval Architecture at South Kensington, the success of which he said was mainly owing to the Institution of Naval Architects, he regretted that the number of private pupils was not larger than at present. The success and usefulness of the school were proved by the fact that the majority of the private pupils were foreigners, and he sincerely hoped that the benefit conferred by it would be shared by a larger number than those who now received instruction within its walls. As regarded the question of the turret system, which divided the nautical world, he was glad to Kay that it was now in a fair way towards solution, inasmuch as the Admiralty had given Captain Coles a carte blanch, to construct the Captain according to his own views. In con clusion he expressed the hope that the institution would be recognised as conferring greet and important advantages on the country. The chair was then taken by Mr. Lloyd, one of the vice-presidents, the president haring stated his inability to be present any longer in consequence of the premiere of official duties. The special report of the council on the safety of ships referred to by the right hon. gentle man was then read by Mr. Merrefield, the hon. secretary, and several papers were also read, including one by Mr. Reed, Chief Constructor of the Navy, " On certain cases of weak ness in iron ships," after which the meeting adjourned. An evening sitting took place, at the termination of which the proceedings were adjourned till this morning. From a late hour on Wednesday up to about noon yesterday a heavy gale from the N.W. swept over the port of Liverpool, and the damage done to shipping is serious.

[TWOPENCE SUFFERINGS OF A SHIPS CASK A shocking narrative, by survivors of the crew of the missing whaler Diana, of Hull—which arrived at Ler wick • few days ago—of the sufferinp of the ship's company during • detention of six months in the ice in Davis' Straits, is pubhabed in the Scotch papers. When the Diana entered Lerwick Harbour, on ly five men were fit for duty, though the whole crew of fi fty, with whom she set sail in May last, were on board. Ten of them were corpses, and the rest had been brought almost to death's door by privation and scurvy. When it became evident on the 3rd of September that the vessel was to he locked in the ice, Captain Gravill at once pot the crew on short allowance, not only was she short al previsions, but it wee found that her supply of coals was such as would not last above a month from the date of her imprisonment in the ice. The crew had therefore to look forward to passing six months in the ice with • supply of food and fuel only calculated to last them for two 1 As the ship was not close to the land they could not expect to shoot or mare many Wanda to augment their meaty stock of provisions, and • gloom settled down upon them. During the whole winter they only caught sixteen seals, four hawks, three owls, one raven, ten unicorns, and one bear, and they say that these: animals were no sooner caught, stripped, and skinned, than they disappeared down the throats of the ravenous crew ! In their despera tion, they had to burn ell the wood they could safely strip from the vessel. There were on board sixty casks, each calculated to bold 210 gallons, and these were first commenced upon, being broken up sad used for firewood. Then they need the boats' davits, after this the stimuli booms, then the very yards were I tales down from the masts, and, " eves the boats' ears, the misen topgallant yards, a spare and • ' spare mainyard—in fact, everything we could get hold of. and that would burn, was used as fuel." During the depth of winter they never lost eight of the sun, and at the shortest day they had the sun from half-past 10 in the morning fill 2 in the afternoon. Notwithstanding this, the cold was so intense that the breath of the men congealed on the roof and sides of their " bunks " to such an extent that the ice on them was two inches deep. And not only so, but the very medicine in the bottles which were put in at the heads of the berths by the doctor, so as to be within reach of those who were ill, was actually frozen, and bad to be taken to the fire to be thawed. Their ship was embedded firmly in the ice, and on every side there was a vast and inhospitable snowy wilderness, which seemed ready to enclose ship and crew is one fearful winding sheet. The snow also fell heavily at intervals. Towards the latter end of December, Captain Gravill began perceptibly to droop, and his new , aggravated by his distress of mind, carried him off on the 26th of December. Three of the men, who have returned, have sailed with Captain Gravill for • period of eighteen years, and gone with him from ship to ship. They state that his attention to his crew was beyond all praise. Several of them were at last compelled to remain in their berths, till, on the 17th March, there were only about four or five men, out of a crew (all told) of 50, who were able Ito go aloft ! To all the horrors of scurvy, severe frost bite of the limbs, in several cases was added, and by the latter end of December it becam e : evident that fully cur -1 third of the whole crew could not survive. On Sm&y the 17th March, the breeze having continued, and • heavy swell having been caused by it, the ioe around the ship gave way. After getting deer of it, they made • direct course for Shetland, but progress was exosedingly slow. No sooner were they clear of the ice, and hope had again to animate the crew, than, one by one, those sated with scurvy began to drop off ; and tse who had hitherto been able to keep up had to keep their berths. With the water increasing daily in the hold, the supply of feud all but exhausted, the ship dismantled fax fuel to lance an extent as seriously to impair her sailing powers, with a death occurring almost every day, and with a dia tom* of some 1,600 miles to traverse ere they could hope fs: succour, no wonder that the hearts of the poor fellows I then failed altogether, and that the hope which bad buoyed them up through all the dreary winter now de -1 serted them, so that they gave themselves up for lost. On the mors t og of the 2nd of April, when they descried land at Rocneas Von, they felt persuaded that from the manner in which the Water on the resod, she could not be kept afloat another day. Ranee Voe is a smell vii- L(s, consisting only of five families, ma the villagers did not descry the Diana until after she had rounded the headland and was close upon them. Immediately upon seeing her, one of the villagers put off in a boat, and piloted the ship into a safe mid of the bay. The whole of the people in the vill age , about 40 in number came down to the beach, and landed those of the crew who were able to go ashore in boats. They sent on board fresh provisions for the sick, and also relieved th e anew by working the pumps. When the vessel reached Romeo' N'oe, the bodies of all the men who had died were on board, the carpenter having made rough coffins for as many corpses as wood could be spared for the rest being sewn up in canvas. There were 14 bodies in all. When those of the Hull men left who were able to do so, the Diana was still in Roe noes Voe ; but it was expected that, with the aid of the villagers, and of extra hands, stores, he., sent from Ler. wick by Mr. Leask, she would shortly be refitted se as to be in a condition to steam round to Lerwick. THE LONDON TAILORS' MOVEMENT.— Lest even ing a general committee and delegate meeting of the London Tailors' Association was held at the Green Dragon, Ring-street, Soho, for the purpose of receiving the re por t of the delegates sent to Manchester on Tuesday laat. The delegates who were accompanied back from Manchester by the president and vice-president of the amalgamated society, reported that it had been decided at the meeting held in Manchester on Wednesday that the terms of the masters' letter should be rejected, and that both the London and Manchester men act as a united body. In consequence of this resolution • telegram had been sent op to the committee of the masters' association request ing their ultimatum by Monday next. Should this alti r.iatum be unfavourable to the claims of the men, • propo sition is then to be made for a general strike. ISIORTII LONDON RAILWAY.—A Whanicliffe meet ing of the proprietors of this railway was held yesterday at the Ruston station, Mr. Bancroft in the chair, to con sider • bill now pending in parliament for widening the line, and granting various additional pewee to the com pany. Mr. Payne, the solicitor, having read the heads of the bill, the chairman moved, and Mr. Lyon seconded, the usual formal resolution approving it. A shareholder thereupon asked for an explanation of its object, and whether there was a good prospect of the outlay meeting with an ade quate return. The chairman, in reply, said the share capital authorised by the bill was 100,0001., of which 40,0001. was required for the construction of • loop line from Bow to the London, Tilbury, and Southend Railway, to enable the North London to work in direct conjunction with that line. The rest of the capital would be applied principally to widening the line front Camden Town to Dalston Junction, and thence to Brad street. Parliamentary powers already existed for laying down a single line between the two first-named points ; but considering the large extent of goods traffic their agreement with the London and North Western Company had brought and must bring upon the line, it was felt that it would be impassable to accommodate it without laying down another line, and continuing it on to Broad-street. Under present circumstances the company was unable to accommodate this growing traffic ; and if these additional lines were not provided, it might leave the question open for the establishment of a parallel railway. Another pur pose for which the new capital was needed was the con centration of the workshops, which were now spread apart and widely separated from each other. Ceder this bill they would be brought into one locality, thereby increasing the facilities for working the traffic, and securing a considerable saving of the ordinary expenditure. The London and North Western Company, who would contribute a portion of the capital in the the. meter of shareholders, were perfectly witisfied with the measure, and there could be little doubt that the outlay would yield a fair return ; 15,0001. a year would give 5 per cent. Replying to other questions the chairman added that the capital authorised by the bill was deemed suffi cient for the work. The bill would in no way alter the relations between this company anal the London and North Western, who paid tolls upon rummagers and rates upon goods, Piet the same as any other company using the North London line. The resolution was then unanimously agreed to, and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings. BAHIA AND BAN FRANCTseO RAILWAY COMPANY (Lruirtia.—The 19th ordinary general meeting was held yesterday at the Landon Tavern, Ilialiopsgate-street ; Mr. T. M. M eguelin, M.P., in the chair. In moving the adop tion of the report, which had been some days in circula ' tion, the chairman assured the shareholders that the dividend recommended for the half-year ending the 31st of December last had been fairly earned within that pe riod. Thu traffic bad not been quite su good as that of the corresponding half of 1865 but the expenses had not in creased, and they were still in a position to divide 3 per teat. The traffic had suffered from the diminished pro duce of the districts through which the line passed, and he was sorry to say the accounts of the present year's crops were somewhat discouraging, but by dint of economical working the directors still 601..1 to improve the future dividends. Moreover, the Ilnailian egwernuient had re solved to divert the cattle traffic of rim province to the line, which would be the means of mating a considerable addition to its receipts. The repair.. and reueesla ren dered necessary by the floods of IFC.I were proceeding satisfactorily, and, including the restoration of the Naga fennel, the money set aside for that object at a previous meeting would amply suffice for all the damage done. Mr. J. Morgan seconded the adoption of the report, which was unanimously agreed to. and the dividend for the half-year declared payable forthwith. This would absorb 54,0teif., and leave • balance of 2,694. to be carried forward. The retiring directors and auditors were re-elected, and the proceedings closed in the usual manner. 4.1! who noes lien Lai ittle has r tO tho Dog 104 into or so ugh ige ;el n-th 01 thi ton ID
