The whole of the debenture stock has bees tad. The balance of the purchase coney for the land, 64,2381, es. ed., which under the original agree. meat with lir. Schuster became due on Jaly 31, 1859, ha been paid, and the property conveyed to the company es their freehold. Only one item is added to the capital account, and that lea sum of 3,5001. paid to the refreshment coat:adore tor edditior stale to the plant. . - The CHAIRMAN, In moving the adoption of the report, and the dedication of the dividend of the ordinary sharel,ob- Nerved that the two subjects were coupled In order that there might be bat on. discredits. The gross inoorse of the year wee the largest the company had ever received. No doubt the peeler pert of the increase was des to the Handal Festival, but he did not anti cipant that there would be a corresponding reduc tion is Attire year. Leaving out the cost of the Handel Festival and the cost of specialties, the ordinary iipenall tams would be reduced to about 61,0001. Besides that, there were many items charged to revenue which might fairly have been debited to capital. Theee items together amounted to over 5,000/, leaving in round figurni 46,0001. as the working expiates of the concern. That sum inclodse 2,0001. which would sot occur in every yew. The expendi ture won originally estimated at 60,0001.; but he had every reason to hope that is future years it would be reduced to 40,0001. or 42,0001. without impairing the attractiveness of the palace. ha regards the capital account, he estimated that the company was now liable for 66,0001., and had resources at their disposal to meet the claims to the extent of 61,0001., leaving a de ficit of 15,0001. It was clear, therefore, that soars mum would have to be devised to rain this latter sum. It would be a very doubtful policy to add to capital, while it would be equally impolitic to entrench upon the I, principle of a reservehted. The shareholders had now for the first time a clear yearly account before them, and it we. des: that the workings of the year would not justify a Yaw dividend then 2.., because, in order to make up that dividend, they would have to reduce the reserve fund by 14,0001. He hoped they would never de part from the course of having only annual ac counta. The scream* if preeteted half yearly, could only wished. The experiente of this year proved the ad vantage of a 141111110 Led. It had enabled the directors to Meal. the dividend; and if they adhered to the presen t policy there could be no potion about it that the enmities of the company menld soridarably and steadily improve is veins.

The present quotation is 951 to 1. The Three per Cents.

Debentures of 1859, at 97i, 1, and 4; India Bonds, at 61. prem. ; and Exchequer Bills, at 28s. to 31s. prem. The foreign stock market is very inactive. The Turkish Loan of 1868 remains doll, at 64 to 1, whilst that of 1854 is quoted 76k to 371. Basilian Three per Cent. Bonds are ra ther more offered. Other foreign stocks are quiet.

There were few applications at the Discount Office at the Bank yesterday ; and in the general market the demand is still far less than usual for the season of the year. The beet bills are discounted at 21 to 21 per cent. A telegram from Vienna cent. in Austrian stock. a fall of * per It has been resolved by the committee of the Stock Exchange that the establishment shall be closed on Monday next, the 26th instant. The day will be a general holiday. The steamer Africa hes arrived from New York with 134,6571. in specie, and the Vigo with 43,0001. Another sum of 6,4001. in gold has been raised from the wreck of the Royal Charter. Of the amount now in London no farther portion hsa yet been sold for the Continent. Tne prospectus of the San Paulo (Brazilian) Rail way Company (Limited) was imbued yesterday, under the auspices of Meerut. Rothschild and Sons. The Brazilian Minister in London is ex officio a director, and it is scarcely necessary to observe that the other names connected with the undertaking are of the highest respectability. The capital is fixed at 2,000,0001., upon which 7 per cent. per annum interest, payable in London, is guaranteed—viz. 6 per cent. by the Imperial Brazilian government, and 2 per cent, by the Provincial Legislature of San Paulo. The object of the railway, which will be 88 miles long, is to supply the interior of the province of Ban Paulo with a system of transport to its chief poet, Santos. To show the necessity of the under taking it is mentioned that "the planters are now pay ing 161. per ton for the transport of coffee from Gm , pine to Santos (a distance of 98 miles),whilst the cost of freight from Santos to Europe is only 60s. per ton." The public are already familiar with the liberal con ditions by which the enlightened government of Brazil seeks to promote the construction of railways. The principal point wherein the conditions of the present undertaking are morn favourable than those accorded to the Pernambuco and Bahia companies is tersely described ma follows The company has obtained this valuable and dis tinctive' privilege, that on the capital of 2,000,0001. being expended, in accordance with the concession, the company is empowered to raise on the same terms tie the original capital (that is to say, with a gua rantee of 7 per cent. for 90 years) any further sum expended in payment of interest during the con struction of the line within the period fixed by the concession." The amount for preliminary expenses has been fixed by the Brazilian government at 46,0001., and an "experienced contractor," who gives security to the amount of 100,0001., has under taken to complete the work in all respects, as well as provide rolling stock and plant, for 1,803,0001. Consequently " the ample balance of 130,0001. of the fixed capital is left to meet adminis trative and other charges during construction." All possible precautions appear thus to have been taken to secure to the shareholders a minimum dividend of 7 per cent. per annum, free from all disturbing con tingencies. The company is allowed twelve years from the 26th April, 1838, for the completion of the railway, but the contractor will be bound to finish the works in eight years from the date of his con tract. It must also be mentioned that " during the continuance of the guarantee the government will be entitled to one-half the net profits over 8 per cent. per annum. When the dividends derived from profits shall have exceeded 12 per cent. per annum for two consecutive years, the government has the power to modify the tariff rates, so as to keep the dividends within 12 per cent. per annum." A large proportion of the capital has already been applied for, and the list is expected to be closed very speedily. The shares touched premium in the morning, and closed at to prem. Letters from Holland mention that, in opposition to the bill for the new network of railways, an in dependent member of the Dutch Chamber has intro duced a proposal for increasing the amount of the 'inking fund on Dutch government stock, instead of permitting it to be diverted as a subvention for railway purposes. The traffic on the Trieste line of the Lombardo- Venetian Railway Company for the week ending the 9th Dec. was 26,3021., being 7,2141. more than in the corresponding week of last year; and that on the Lombardo-Venetian line 12,9761., showing an increase of 5,9991. The aggregate increase on both lines since lst Jan. is 789,3931. The South Eastern Railway traffic return shows this week au increase of 1,0651., and the Brighton an increase of 5831. . _ The Stock Exchange committee have appointed Friday next special settling day in the shares of the Ocean Marine Insurance Company, which are to be quoted in the official list. A general meeting of the Ceylon Railway Com pany is to be held on the 6th January. Tne interest is advertised on the Great Luxem bourg Company's obligation.. Mr. Simon Samuel, a gentleman well known in City cireite, and many years a member of the Com mittee of Spanish American bondholder., died yes terday. MONDAY EVENING. Consols, which closed on Saturday at 951 to 1 ex div., for the 10th January, opened to-day at the ' same quotation, and closed at 951 " buyers," after improving in the interval to 951 " buyers." The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for account (10th January), 951, 1,1, ex din.; Three per Cents. Reduced, 951. 4. i• 4; New Three per Cents., 951, 4, ; Bank stock, 227 ; the New Indian Five per Ceot. Loan, 1041, 41, ex div.; the Indian Four per Cent. Debentures, 1858, 971; ditto, 1859, 971, 971. The New Indian Five per Cent. Loan closed the same as on Saturday, at 104 to 1, ex div. India Bonds have improved to 61. to 10s. prem. Exchequer Bills remain quoted 29.. to 32a. prem. In the foreign stock market the principal feature was a fresh fall of fully 1 per cent. in the Turkish Six per Cent. Loan of 1866. Realisations of a por tion of the recent issue are still being pressed. The closing price was 64 to 4. The Loan of 1854 de clined 1 per cent., being lot quoted 761 to 77. There were a few inquiries for Mexican Bonds. Other foreign descriptions were inanimate. There was a very active demand to-day for Lou don and County Bank shares, which have risen to 33 to I. Agra Bank were inquired for, and were marked 73. Th e shares of the National Bank have been dealt in 601 (251. paid). Red Sea Telegraph shares were largely purchased, and have risen to f to 1 prem.
