He bad also his attestation and discharge paper with him, but was refused payment, although many others, one of w►om was low present, had obtained their prize money with precisely similar certificates. Mr. Arnold inquired the ground of refusal. Applicant said that he was informed at Chelsea College that they refused to pay any more persons utiles the cer tificate was signed by a commirsioned officer. Mr. Arnold asked why he did Dot amply with the re quirement. Applicatt informed the magistrate that be was enable to do so, as he did Dot know where to fled any officer who then served in the Transport Corps. He thought it exceedingly hard that after waiting so many years for their prize money, men who had served should have any difficulty thrown in their war of obtaining it. Mr. Arnold said that of course applicant and others who had a claim must comply with the regulations laid down. If they were not satisfied with the certificate of a non-com misaiooed officer, and required more, it must be procured. He thought there would be oo difficulty, as the applicant might inquire at Chelsea Hospital the name of a com missioned officer to whom be could refer. Applicant said bis complaint was that be had made that inqnny at Chelan College, with a view of complying with the regulations. but hind been told by the clerks there that it was Dot their business to give the required information. so that be and others were abeolutely denied the memo of obtainiag the prize money, to which they were entitled.

I then went with lkoughtois amass the yard towards the cells, when I saw her move her hand towards Seymore. I observed something in her heed.

A spacial general meeting of this company was bald y os i i i r jay afternoon at the Grosvenor Hotel, Victoria Station ; UNA SONDLIS in the chair. Tg e s engTA gy (Ar. Johnson) reed theadvertimment eon moiog the meeting, and also the following statement of the .gt ee t e f or w hi c h it was celled, namely, the ereaMos and o f the provisions of "TIN London, Cbatilan , , and Dover Railway (City Undertaking) Act, 1d64," of the capital thereby Authorised for the City linen undertaking, by that act constituted and defined, and for authorities the borrowing en mortgage of that undertaking of the amount anthori•ed by the said act. Also for the /Testier' and issue, under the pro visions of the said act, of the further oriLnary capital authorised thereby for the geoeral undertaking of the cora pany, and for determining the manner and terms of such issue. Also for authorising the further borrowing on security of the general undertaking of the amount autho rised by the said ma. Also for the creation and issue, under the provisions of the said acts, of a further amount of ordinary capital in the general undertaking of the cara way, to lieu of the whole or any part of the third profs ream capital, the shares in which may be surrendered to the company by the prompt holders thereof, and thereon= cancelled, and for determining the manner and terms of such issue. Also for the creation and issue, in pursuance of the provisions of the Loudon, Chatham, and Dover Railway (New Lines) Act, 1864, of the farther capital thereby antharimed for the eastern section (Greenwich Es tension) undertaking, and for determining the metier and terms of such issue. Also for authorising the farther bor rowing in respect of that undertaking of the amount autbo. rimed by such last mentioned act. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, stated that, as they bad heard, the meetrag was called for the purpose of relying new capital for the various undertakings which bed bees sanctioned by parliament last year, all of which were neceseary for g the interests of the company. He moved the rat resolution, authorial's( the raising of • capital of 1,000,0001., in 50,000 shares of 201. each, for the City lines. Lord HARBIN in seconding the mottos, raid that it WWI not necessary to enter very minutely into the question of the expediency of raising this capital, because the matter was very fully discussed as the Wheelietiffs meeting held a short time Mice, at which the question of the link lice was brought prominently before the shareholders The capi tal now requited was for the link Ilse extending from Earl-street to the junction to be effected with the Metropolitan. That bed very Daturally bees an ex- passive undertaking, but they had been able to carry on the works to a very considerable extant already. It was expected that the hoe to the Ludgatohill Ostia* would be opened towards the sod of the year, and that the junction of the main line with the Metropolitan would be completed shortly after that period. The great seleastege which would lea LIO to the company from effecting that junction had been abundantly proved by the succem which bad already attended the opening of the lie. to Blaokf rises. There was no doubt that the traffic would largely increase, and their pro. poet s to that quarter were extremely good. With respect to the continuation of the line from Ludgatrebill to the Metropolitan Railway, the proposal now meets was to take power to raise sufficient capital for the completion of the whole of the work proposed. He begged most cordially to second the resolution. After a desultory discussion the resolution was carried by 32 to 8. The next resolutien with reference to the payment of the desciency in the 3i per cent. to the Great Northern on their contribution of 300,000/. if it should arise, was also put and carried. The Szcarranr then read the resolution for cresting 1,500,0001. further ordinary capital. Mr. HZDOCOCK asked whether the taking up Lloyd's bonds would be a bed charge on the company. Mr. Joe/18021 explained that this capital would follow the wood preference stock. The first charge would be deben tures. The interest oo the common fund was payable out of the general undertaking. In answer to Mr. ALLIOIDZE, Mr. FORBE4 stated trait 8,5001. per week would pay all claims, iucludtsg interest os the 500.0001. debentures to be raised. The old debentures were 118,0001., the sew would be 500000/. The sum required forthe debentures including the new creation was A 0,9401., for the western rent charge 28,8001. ; for the common fend, being the estimated propor tion on the Dover preferences and totems; on capitalised arrears, 28,0001. ; for the second preference, 48.0001. Total net amount to be earned, 200,7404 Then if they assumed the working expenses to be 50 per mot. the total amount of annual earnings to pay all claims and work the line would be something like 8,1071. a week, and they were et the present pigment earning a little over 8,0001. a week. It was quite true that the average gaming for the fires ail months of the year bad been 5,7001., bat the line was not then open to Blackfriers, and since it bad been the earninp had exceeded 8,0001. a week os the general undertaking. Every mils of their railway was bombe by the opening of the line into London, and passengers from Dover and liansagate much preferred going by Maims it had been opened to Blackfriare. After some dimension of a convereatiotal character, . _ . Mr. AbbaNDl9 said that he wax not satisfied with the al planations be bad received, and he should move, as an amendment, " that the raising of this additional capital should be deferred till so account was furnished showing how much of the money required bad been expended, and what it had been paid foe." The amendment having been pot to the meeting was lost, and the original motion carried by 33 to 11. The next resolution wu with reference to the borrowing of 500,000 f. on debentures, which wu agreed to after • short discuesion by 'a to 9. Mr. JOHNSON then read the resolution for the conversion of 800"01. third prefersece capital into ordinary stock. In reply to • question, Mr. HOLEOTD stated that by this operation 48,000/. would go to the ordinary abarehoiders. The Cuilamsx then moved • resolution for the creation of 330,00 W. new stock for the Greeewich Extension, or eastern section of the lies. Mr. Kync HT repeated Ms objections to the raising of ad ditional melted in what he considered &reckless manner. After some remarks in defame of the board from Sir M.
