John Kellfflaad Oct./whew, two young men, were Whited for a burglary in the dwelling home of Margaret ELAM, at Newton-in Meekerfield. Th. proseettrix reside. in Crow-lane, Newton, with her sister, grand.daughter, and a man named Winne, who was a lodger. On the 16th of December last the inmates all retired to bel, leaving the Muni, as they supposed, in a state of smithy. About one o'clock in the morning they were alarmed by a noise. Boon afterwards three men having their Gees blackened, and one carrying a dark-lantare, entered the bed-room of the prose eUtrit. One of the men went up to her bed, and talc her pocket from beneath her pillow. From the pocket he took a hay, by the assistance of which several drawers were opened, and money to the amount of betimes U. sad 61. was taken. Another of the burglan presented a pistol to the heed of the peanut:ix, and threatened that if a• gave the least alarm he would blow out her braise. After mottles ell they could from that room the burglars proceeded to the apartment occupied by the lodger, and after noise threats and presenting a pistol at him they de- Vadhis mosey ; and upon finding that he had none ach his &m. On being asked to leave the hem they replied that they did not intend to de so, until they had partaken of SAM refreshment, and they accordingly went below stairs, where they remained for about an hour, and then decamped, tektite with them a quantity of clothing and other articles, besides the money shove referred to. The evidence, which was of a circumstantial cherseter, to connect the prison?' with the burglary was that they were seen in company with some other men at a public :EOM On( to dilsittleS on the night of the outrage. awl when they left they went is that climax. A pair of stockings left behind by the burglars was identified as those of the prisoner Kelly. The prisoner Ockleshaw, when In gaol, told a fellow-prisoner that he and Kelly got into the house through the window and tug eked the er, after which they admitted two o th er men into the hems. He (O. kleshaw) had the Otto:, and Kelly and the other men committed the robbery. The pistol was subse quietly thrown into the eassal. Wilehaw added that there was spiking spinet them but the Makings. The prisoners wars appreMnded shortly after the burglary. Mr. Pollock addressed the jury in defence of the prison. Me, and contended that there was not a tittle of evidence against them, except that given by the man who bad been brought from gaol, and his character was such, according to hie own showing, that his testimony was not to be believed. Mr. Pollock then called a witness, named Weans, to prove aa alibi. This man swore that at two o'clock in the morn fag, the hour at which it was alleged the prisoners were at the Moss when the burglary wee committed, he let them in at the house when they lodged. The witness, in cross examination, denied that he had ever been in custody more than ems ; but, being pressed bard, admitted that be bad been twice — the secontime on a charge of paying bare coin. Mr. Cross replied, aid contended that the whole of the evidence against the prisoners was c 'opiate, with the ex ception of that of M'Guire, and the only difference with him was as to time ; and in this respect, knowing the object he ' had in view in thing upon 2 o'clock, he was unworthy of isedisL His lordship having recapitulated the evidence, sad in- Mimed the jury upon it, they retired, aid had not returned to court when our report left. 111DDLBSBE 1311881ONS.—Ymernanny.

Meeting of Shareholders.—Lonctun, March 21. Nasa, Esq., is me chair. tie CHAIRMAN sail that sotto, of the present meeting had been sent to the directon of the company, together with • full statement of the proceedings which took place at the last meeting, held on the 24th of February, and frcm which the directors had absented themselves ; and it now became his duty to inquire whether any of the directors, or and one representing thens,wss in attendance on the present occasion. No reply having been made to this inquiry, the chairman condoned to say that in the abloom of the s Ineens it was not competent to the shareholders to constitute • meeting until an hoar had elapsed from the time for which the meet ing was convened. In the interim business could only be conducted provisionally, and be would avail himself of the Jppertunity of laying before them the circumstances in which they were plated at present, and the proceedings of their directors which bad led to their calamitous situation, and it would then remain for them to adopt such measures as. under the peculiar position in which they found themselves, might seem most advisable. Since their last meeting at No. 449, Strand, a report had been prepared by the committee then appointed, which was submitted to the directors, with the view of correcting any errors or misrepretentations which might have been made in it, but they had not availed themselves of the power thus given, if there was any room for exercising it. He tepee &could • very large body of shareholders, and he thought it due to himself to state at the outset that he wee infloeneed by no personal feeling in the matter, bat merely by a desire to obtain reparation for a body of men who had lost their property in an affair Managed by persons whom position in life should have acted as • bar to my irregularity.. His sole Innise for taking so active a part es he had dew in their late proceedings was a wish to make these meet disgorge the money of the share holders. Soon after the meeting of the 24th February, he had applied to the secretary for a list of the shareholders, but it was only late yesterday that he had been furnished with it, and he was now enabled to say that he held in his possession letters from parties who repnsentrd 30,000 shares, all of whom wen desirous of the adop ion of steps by which the affairs of the company might be wound up and • stop put to the ruinous expenditure which a com pletion of the line or any part of it would necessarily involve. The opinion of counsel had also been taken with respect to the liabilities of the directors and the rights of the scrip and share holders, and they were distinctly informed that, assuming the statement of the directors' conduct to be founded in truth, every shareholder who had paid sells is ignorance of the proceedings of the direeton was entitled be have his money back, and be relieved from future gals. At their last meeting no printed report was produced by the el' yet he had evidence in his porcessioa which seta bibbed t e het that • report was in existence, and in the bands of the Irish shareholders at the very time. They were aware that the line was projected in 1845 by the dire► tors of the South Wales, Great Western, and Lime Irish companies. In 1846 the directon of the outh Waifs Calm piny atoned to themselves thousands of shares in the Wateiford Company, and the panic soon after occurred. Subsequent to the panic in 1846 and 1847, the anareholders of the South Wales Company wen informed by their diree Mee, who were also directors of the Waterford, Wexford, and Wicklow, that they must take shares in the Waterford Company to keep its works in progress, and that the flares lehorld be taken at par, although at the time paid-up shares could be had in the market for nothing. In the rail way eimmissionime report for 1817 allusion was made to this transaction, the mummies men stating that they had received • memorial from the Dublin and Kings town Company, oomplaining that the South Wales Commuy had, without leg.l authority, subscribed to the Waterford, de., Railway. The South Wales Company admitted that meth was the fan, and that they had exceeded the powers of their set. Again, in 1847 and 1848 the sh ireholders of the South Wales Company sanctioned • subscription of 25,0001. to the Waterford Company, as • future subscription, under a guarantee from the Great Western Com pany, of the advises and interest at 6 per cent. It was not than communicated to them, and they had no means of knowing that any capital was already taken, or that the cattital to be applied for shares at par was to be ex pended in relieving the directon of their shares. In the ses sion of 1848 a hill was passed authorising a &tun teubserip tion to the extent of 12,600 shares to the Waterford Company by the South Wales and empowering the latter to nominate a majority of the directors of the former. Is tits fallowing June a payment appeared in the sceoanta of the South Wales Company of 22,4001. to the Waterford Company, hut up to the present moment net • penny of that sum ap pears to Lave come into the soffers of the Wat.rfoed Coin- whose unallotted shares, deposit', and subieribed a phil wen of the same amount as they were certified to be in . It was also concealed from the shareholder* that there was an agreement between the directors of the South Wales company and the some ' , mons as dinettes of the Waterford company that no more calls were as be made on them until the Waterford showed the means to mak the line to =L, The directors of the three-companies, after obtaining the set In 1846, revive 1 back the parliamentary deposits, sod bat above 60,0001. to the Great Western Company without Eta knowledge or suction of the shareholders of either ems pay, and at a much lower rate of interest than they VOW Id m the market. In December, 1846, it was alleged is dso dir.etors' accounts that there was a balance of 73,0001. in hand; but they did not tell where it wan. Mod it was only in 1846 that it wen dis 'wend it had been lent by one set of dimelleas to the other. In 1847 more capital was called ap t mad 10,0001. more was lent to the same Company. March Mk an additional call was made, gha ts thou the time Am. was lent to another company. These fac retpdred me eminent from him. Again, the necessary subseripdou onatniet had not the required number of denatures, whirl was 75,000, or three-fourths of the whok,and up to J sin e,1846, the whole sum available for the deposit, was 83,0001, hat fib ek isli mei amateled from the Ihmeholders ard the dlesslem burrowed from various companies the mmy Mm h o goo d the d. posits ef 76.0001. and 16= is the COlllOlOOll and 10rd... Thus the act of interporation :was obtained in 1846, and the directors at the meting in that 'nor had ventured to say that the affairs of no other Ort a. Meagan Company hod been edmini.tered with orearsr i n t o . . At the clam of the year 1846 the bona fide 'hen - ssalsoied for • dissolution, out the directors of the , . thin heels, thousands of shares on band sue , Mel the up of the company , for they had „to ' West bock ths parliamentary deposits and lent 60, 000t,a ft Its themselves. At the first half-ycarly meeting in Desegsber Mk an adjeasantsst of the qion was obtained by the 'illeestera ist ease to negotiate terms, and, during that posy Ipessmar„ dm seplgel and officials were employed in buying I fig yeas, slum, sad trawl. re, to the extent of some hun dreds I wheat bolder. were persuaded to part with 'their Asres ; original Octane were registered against their will, and transfers taken ; purchasers of scrip were registered it .mtep s u pported the eirecton ; proxies and votes were pro moted, to be withdrawa from the opposition ; shares were *Masted among the directors and o ffi cials of the three eon- sostot sompanits; propossbt were made to persons to register •aad vets with the directors on an in lannity—the compare iai gale personal indemnities; slants were despatched 5, Inland and to canvass for shares and votes; finally, purchasers I of 17,600 scrip were retitled registration, their property' end deposits Illegally confiscated. The registry was tamed contrary to good faith, and included the 15,760 colourable, and 11,200 South Wales shares, at least. By such sus of the capital the director' were enabled to outdates the company, and defeat the opposition of the dead lido boldien. Having stated emend other rotten, Aisk beladed evidence of gross mismanagement of the Gain se the company, the chairman concluded by strongly esesmainsila r lte shareholders to adopt measures for wind kg up the of the company. In order to complete the beg section of the line, not less than 200,0001. would be re. , and to defray t hat' expenditure they had 11,0001. in and whatever could be wrung from rhareholders would be a very small sum indeed, compared to the sum required. He was quite certain that any jury to whom the facts which he had stated were disclosed would think that gross irregularities had bean perpetrated on the shenholders, and afford them redress scoordingly. It was only neehmary that it should be shown that the shareholders wet* net contenting parties to throe practices, by which the .....puny had been got up and carried on, and their right to obtain the money luck which they had deposited' could' not be disputed. He now left it with themselves to decide whe ther they would go on with tha company or bring the direc ts's to book, and wind up its straits. An hour haying now elapsed since the proceedings of the meeting commenced, the d irect ors were again called on to appear, and the fotmal business of the day was proceeded with. Mr. Nash having been reappointed chairman, Mr. FREBBODY, C. 8., after a speech strongly con demnatory of the proceedings of the directors, moved the adoption of the report of the committee, and the following resolution :—" That the directs?' in failing to meet the pro prietors, have betrayed the trusts confided to them, and by their transactions with the South Wales and Great Western director", bare lost ihe confidence of the shareholders." Me. ROBINSON seconded this resolution, which passed. Resolutions to the following tflect were also agreed to:— " That that meeting suspended the payment of all call" until a report from the proprietors' committee was laid before a public meeting and adopted." " That a proprietors' cow mittee of flee persons be appointed to examine into the affairs of the company, with power to call for books and vouchers, and to report thereon to an early meeting to be called by them for that purpose." And lastly, " that a peti tion he presented to parliament, and a memorial to the Rail way Commissioners, praying for an investigation into the affairs of the company, the allotnant and Ws of shares, and for an inquiry before the Committee of the House of Lords at present satin ." The petition having been adopted, and signed by the Chairman, the meeting adjourned to May 1. MIDLAND. Meeting of Shareholders . —L:verpool, March 21.—A. H. WYLI/4 Esq., in the chair. This meeting was called " for the purpose of collecting W opinions of the proprietors generally as to the present position and prospects of the company, and to take Such meaning as may be necessary to institute a strict and search lag inquiry into the affairs of the company generally." There was a very numerous attendance. The CHAIRMAN said they were alt aware that at the last meeting of the Midland Railway Company at Derby, a committee of inquiry was moved for, bet not granted by the directors. He was the person who had moved for that committee, sad he had done so on two grounds ; be left it to those present who were mercantile men to say whether those grounds were not ample and sufficient. He bed moved for the committee because, in the first place the accounts seemed to him so meagre and unsatisfactory that they afforded to the proprietors no indication of the state or value of their property. He bad er.ved for it also because it seemed to him that they bad incurred liabilities which were so severely press- Mg upon the means of the parent oonapanv,that if they were to sostbote without investigation, he did not see to what degree of depreciation their property might fall. The directors had thought proper to refine that eommittee,stating that they would look upon it as a vote of censure. Men, however, who prided themselves upon their purii, should have courted, rather than have refused, inquiry. Since then events notorious to all had occurred, and this Lad led to an intimation that the directors were waiting to grant a corn mitts* of inquiry as soon as the committee sitting on the York (on the charges preferred against Mr. Hudson io re gard to another line) should have handed in their report. It was by that committee that Mr. Hudson must vindicate his eharacter,. oe be for ever after a dishonoured man. He did not wish to prejudge the result, but it was essential for the sake of their eroperty that they (the Midland proprietors) should ask for the re " Meal of Mr. Hudson. He need only to point to his con duct in reference to the Eastern Counties Railway, in de serting his post in a time of difficulty; but he asked the meeting to look to his (Mr. Hudson's) con duct In regard to their own line, and if so they must, he thought, come to the conclusion that they had been too credulous. Although Mr. Hudson was chairman of their own company, he had entered into arrangements with a rival, the Great Northern, whereby the latter would reap tome of the traffic which was properly their own. The chair man concluded by moving the first resolution :—" That in order to produce harmony of action, and perfect confidence between the shareholders and directors of the Midland Rail way Company, it is expedient that a committee of lover iga. tion be arpointed to examine into the management and accounts of the company."—The motion was carried nem. eon. Mr. BRANCKER, in a few brief remarks, next moved, " That, in order to obtain an independent and efficient com mittee to conduct each investigation, a temporary committee be formed here to co operate with the shareholders residing elsewhere, and to collect the proxies of those who may rot be able to attend the special general committee; and that inch temporary committee shall consist of Messrs. A. H. Wylie, W. M'Cracken, James Moon, Eyre Evans, and Sidney ; in favour of any of whom proxies are solicited, and to whom communications ms be addressed." The motion was duly seconded, and unanimmaly passed. A requisition to the director., calling upon them to con vene a meeting as soon as possible to appoint a committee of inquiry, was next submitted, and met approval. A sulueriptien was commenced in the room to defray ex penses, and the meeting adjourned. GLASGOW, KILMARNOCK, AND AYR. Half -yearly Peeling.—Olugow, Mack 20.—J. 111‘Cann, Esq., in the chair. The report of the directors (a summary of which appealed in this paper on Tuesday) having been read, Th. CHAIRMAN stated that, though the pasesger traffic had fallen off, he was happy to say the mineral traffic bad considerably increased. The Increase during the past six months, as compered with a similar period last year was 30361. In January and February, 1817, the amount of the mineral traffic was 3,2601. In these two months in 1848 it was 3,4001. • while, in January and February, 1849 , it had in creased to no less than 7,8001. (Applause.) He regretted thee be bad to come before them with a 2 per cent. dividend, ben lib was attributable to the period of disease and distress tires& which they had pond. The painful state of the Pastry was proved by the fact that, though they bad opened 30 additional miles of railway, they had bad no aggregate increase of passengers or goods. He admitted that much money had been spent in par is mentary and other expenses, but it was absolutely necesesty to protect their interests from the intrusion of hostile com panies. lie then spoke at some length in opposition to cer tain resolution which had emanated fronts committee of shareholders, and stated that the tints fee executing the Seatbstone line had been extended to July, 1854. He moved the approval of the report and dividend. Mr. WATSON moved, with the view of the value of the stock, that no dividend i C paid this half-year. Oa a division it was resolved that the dividend should be paid. The Dean of Guild, GALBRAITH, then moved the resolutions of the committee of shareholden in oppo siien to the report of the directors. He spoke at some length spinet the policy pursued by the ditsetars, stating as one instance of it, that they prozi to construct a line from Ayr and Smittatone to Dalms on, through a barren district of country, at an expense of nearly 300,0001, merely to accom modate one ironwork, and If th is ironwork were stopped this line would be useless. After a lengthened addrees, he moved the following resolutions : " 1. That the capital account should *be eta al as soon as practicable; end that, until this be done, every sum added to that account should be stated is the half-yearly reports, and the way in which the amount has been expended. 2. That the half-yearly report should contain an explicit ac count of all the liabilities of the company. 3. That no obligations for lines, for which the company have not statu tory powers, should be come under, either directly or in& reedy. 4. That for such lines se there are statutory powers, no steps be taken without the authority of a panel meet ing of the shareholders. 5. That for mush lines or breathes, as the directors shall think it expedient to ask for powers from the shareholders to make, circulars shall be addressed and put into the Postoffice, ten days previous to the special meeting being held, to consider the subject, sts.tiner the specific object of making the line or braneh—the esimated coat of the same—the enema by which the dineshen propose to raise the necessary capital, and the estimated traffic there may be derived from such line or branch : all certified by the secretary of the company for the time befog. 6. That In particular the line from Ayr to ilealthstese be abandoned, the building Idea bridge at Ayr 112 . and that the shareholders de net approve of the of the directors relative to the line boa Smith etess sellingtee. 7. That that. should be a thorough instigation of the expenditure, that everything may be dew la the most eessenleal meaner consistently wieb the ef bleat and safe Inaba of the line. 8.

That two *udders of accounts shall be appointed by the shareholders , that the persona appointed may or may not be shaveltelden; and that it shall be the duty of the auditors to make a special report to the shareholders es every transaction which msy come under their notice inconsistent with the statutory powers of the directors." " In order to cony out the reeolntion No. 12, de com mittee would recommend that the following gentlemen be introduced into the direction :—A. Orr, Elq., one of the magistrates of the thy; R. Kiddon, Bsq., merchant; W. Jamieson, Bog., merchant ; J. Burns, Esq.. merchant ; J. Lumeden June., Esq., merchant ; and W. H. Dobie, E q. , merchant.' After a very long and angry discussion, the resolutions of the commit:re were &Milted, on the undemanding that the Bmitbstone line should be delayed, and the directors relieved from responsibility. Four of the gentlemen named by the committee were appointed direct ors, and the directors were requested to appoint the other two, so soon as vacancies oceured. The meeting separated after a sitting of four hours. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS —Enttentractu AND NC/R- U(111N. -• The report by the directors to the halt yearly plural meeting and special general meeting of share holders, to be held at Edinburgh, on Tuesday, the 27th inst , has been is.ned. It states that " incluiive of the balance at the clot.' of the previous half-year, the net revenue at the dispesal of the proprietors, after deducting working and other @spumes, and a sum of 10,4991 10e. of interest, is 23,7111. 10a. Si. Out of the free revenue as above stated of 23,7111. 10.. 6d., your directors recommend, in the first instance, that 3,6341. 10s. b e applied in payment of nine months' cividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum. on the late Orentnn Company's Prsference Capital of 96,9201., payable on 20:h April next. Oa the other stocks of the company, they recommend that a dividend for tight months be declared, at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum, payable on the 30th June next. Ater payment of which, there will remain a surplus of 5,3031.3.. ld. to be carried to the credit 4 next account. Your directors regret the postponement of the payment of the dividend until the 30th Jane ; hut it is rendered necessary in consequence of the revenue (as shown in the last report), having been taken as a temporary loan to the capital account. The amount of share capital held to be productive and Goateed to dividend is 1,204,6851., and in fixing this sum your directors have been regulated by prin eiples generally acted upon. On the original stocks of the company (with the exception of 11. per ewe on the 25/. shame, end 21. per ►hare on the 151. share., expended chi. fly on the Kirkcaldy Harbour and Dunfermline branches, from which no revenue is yet derivable) the full amount culled up on the Bth of May last is held entitled to dividend. Ou the other stocks the sums considered entitled to dividend have been fixed as nearly as possible on the same equitable principles. Considering that, besides other disartvantageoui circumstances ; the line was not opened to Perth civil the middle of July, and that the partial opening of the Dunferm line branch did not take place until September, the experi ence of the past half-vier, during which the revenue has averaged nearly 2,(001. a week, has not disappointed the ex pectations of year directors." MONEY MARKET. WEDNESDAY REINING. Console opened this morning at 91; to and gra dually advanc. d to 91t, closing firm at 91; to t for the eecount, and 911 for money. Improved quota tions from Paris influenced the market, and the news from India relieved the anxiety that has been felt regarding the position of Lord Gough, who is clearly able to hold his own until the arrival of the expected reinforcements. The message of the American President also gave great satisfaction, and tin se circumstances combined to shed an im proved feeling over the market, and the large remit tances announced by the Dee, amounting to above two millions of dollars, had a!so an effect on the price of English securities. Bank Stock is quoted 1961 for the account. Ex chequer Bills of June, 38s. to 41s. prem:um ; and India Bond., 503. to 51.. premium. The Three per Cent.

In the foreign securities there has been great ac tivity, and in the South American stocks everything marks higher to-day. An arrangement is understood to have been made by Messrs. Manning and Macin tosh, at Mexico, under which 500,000 dollars ere to be paid over to the bondholders in anticipation of the Custom-house receipt.. This payment has been under taken as an exchange operation by the houseof Messrs. Baring Brothers, and Co., who have negotiated the amount for the United States Treasury, as an instal ment of the indemnity contracted to be paid to Mexico by the United Stet F. This had a favourable influence on Mexican Bonds, and they rose rapidly from 281 9 to 311, at shich they closed. Peruvian Bonds were done as high as 60, and Buenos Ayres at 40.

The Ceylon accounts show activity in shipments of native coffee beyond the correrpanding reriod of last season; the shipments of plantation rather lees: prices had advanced ss. per cwt. in consequence of the favourable advice. from this side. The aggregate shipments of the season will not be equal to those of last year, particularly of native coffee.
