The directors of the South &stern Company, who were to work the line when opened for traffic, had required that the City terminus should he con structed without deli,, and steps had been accordingly taken to obtain possession of the property required for the purpose, and arrangements had teen made for proosiding with the construction of the works, Melodies the Waft lleftleb the river between Southwark and Leedom bridges, add the new City terminus in Canameitzest, se sera ea por able after the property should have bass parehmed. &Mr factory progreis continued to be made with the bridge amass the Timone. at Huagerford, and the &radon were using their beet endeavours to4nave the line ready for the con veyance of traffic between Loadon-bridge and the Waterloo station by the ensuring summer, and into the terminal sta tic.° at Charing-cram by the beginning of next year, - - The Cs inn AN —The report and acooonta distributed &swept you contain the usual summary of informatics as to the progress of the undertaking and its condition at the ends of last half-year. Yon will observe that we have now nearly oompleted the arningsneuts for obtaining pos session of ell the land and property required for the 0 :5 line. We have, indeed, bees seder the necessity at arraugenienis to take considerably more than was for that purpose. I allude more particularly to the fit. Thomas's Hospital estate, which we have been compelled to buy nadir • decision of the Court of Mammy. When we west to parliament for our original act we scheduled only that part of the property at the outer corner of the hospital garden which the railway west* crow Though we did not propose to touch any part of the hospital buildings, we nevertheless expected to have some thing considerable to pay as compenestaos fo r r a in s tay. This difficult gusted= has, however bon dim of dby Use swept of the arbitrator, who has included t • cempensitios to he paid to the hospital for immediate removal from the moronity is the total sum of 296,0001. awarded by him. Although it would certainly have been more convenient for is not to hove made this large purchase out of our COMPSYSP Lively limited capital. yet it may possibly prove of advan tage to the company in the end, to have been compelled to become the owneri of so valuable apropeny. You will re member that the prim asked was 700,0001. sad that the price awarded is 296,0001.

And I seed scarcely point out that for business purposes, situated so sear to the busiest part of London-bridge, the site easact fail to be extremely valuable, sod to command a very high price whey we come to offer it for sale. The worn are rapidly proceeding towards completion, and although there nisy as yet be no appearance of progress at the Lcsdoa , bridge end of the line, I out assure th ose who have sot seen for themselves that a great deal bas been done at the western part of the railway and at the crossing of the river at Huogerford. In the came of a few days from this ^ time, the works at this end, which are comparatively of an easy character, will be in full progress We are also about to take immediate steps to proceed with the City line into Cannon-street. and which I trust will have made some pro. green by the time we next meet. The chairman concluded by moving the adoption of the report sod accounts. Mr. W. C. Tuoureox, the deputy-chairman, seconded the motion. Mr. CoLms CHILD observed that in the statement of ex peditors for the half year there appeared a nun of 42,0001. Repayment to the Hongerferd.bridge Company, whereas the bridge company had actually only received the sum of 40,0001. He wished to know bow this discrepancy was to be accounted for. Mr. Suiten (secretary) explained that the - sum of 2,0001. had been lad as security till the title to the property was completed. but it niu by mistake that it appeared In this item as an addition to the 40,000/. paid.; and the mistake should he rectified. Mr. Beams implied of the engineer whether he had any idea bow soon the line would be opened. Mr. RAWIIIIIIAR replied that that was more a financial than an magiseerill question. As he had alreedy told the directors. if they mild clear the load for him in two or three wecks, or even a month, he thought the line might be opened to Waterloo be Jam next, and that the whole line to Chariogcroes might be ready for unto by the beginning of nest year. The report was then unanimously 14104 and the »- Vries directors, Sir Jame* Lute, ALP., lard Alfred NO, X.P., and Mr. Seymour Toulon, were se-elested. Mr. Rums moved the reelection of Yr. G.

A very respectably- attire! person, named William Boyd, aged 59, of 1.8, Mecklenburgh-square, physician, wee brought up on • warrant just before the closing of the court on Tuesday, by Sergeant Thomas, detective of Boot land-yard, charged with feloniously intermarrying with Elisabeth Carew, on the 27th of October, 1880, in th e parish of lLarylebose, his wife, Louisa Elisabeth, being then alive. Mr. Humphreys, jun., appeared to prosecute, and dated that the prisoner had been married three times, the first marriage being in 1822, the second in 1832, and the third in 1860. The first was in this country, the second io Ireland, and the third in London. I have sitting by my side a gentleman who is solicitor to the Carew family, who will produce certificates of the marriages. He will also at • future day base witnesses to prose that the signatures in the books are in the prisoner's handwriting. I have also • 'Mars, Bourret Thomas, • deterred Scotland-yard, who took the prisoner in custody. The prisoner admitted to him that he baa been separated from his wife for seven years. He is, I may say, one of the most heartier restores in existence, and when I say that, Ido not say too mach for the lest lady that he bas roamed is in the receipt d an biome of 1,3001. • year. He got into the last wife's good emcee by representing himself as being Sir William Boyd, • title to which he had no more right than you or I.

One marriage is in 1822, the second is in 1832 and the third in 1860, and I Sod that the person mentioned in each is named Boyd. In two of them it is William Boyd, and in the third William Cathcart Boyd. I have examined the three original en tries, and believe that I shall be able to prove that they are in the prisoner's handwriting as to the signa ture. For the marriage in Ireland I produce • certificate from the el who married • person of the name of Boyd to a lady He married there in the name of William Boyd, end I bdieve that thepri s oner is the same person who gave the name of William Boyd and William Cathcart Boyd.

Mr. Maasfield remanded the prisoner for a week, and said he would take bail, the prisoner himself in 1500& and two sureties in 100& each, notice to be given to the solicitor (Mr. Humphreys). Caroline Kennedy was placed at the bar charged with' plate robbery as wader.

Several pawnbrokers with whom the property had been pledged were is attendees*. and said the prisoner wan the party who pawned it. The prisoner admitted her guilt, and was sentenced to four months hard labour. MARLBOROUGHATREET. Major Lyon, one of the guardians of the poor of St. George, Hanoverequare, applied to Mr. Knox foe a ma moos against the authorities of St. James's parish for re fusing to admit a deetitute poison under these circumstances : —A. few nights ego the police found a MID in a state of com plete destitution in the streets. The man was taken about two o clock in the morning by a covetable to St. Jimmie workhouse, but the porter reload to receive the was sad the constable was obliged to take him away. The awe had been brought under the polies of the board of guardians of 84.0eingsfa,to which parish it wag understood the pauper was ultimately conveyed, and he, as one of the guardians , now app li ed for a summons against his workhouse porter of St. James's, in order that the question of the right of refusal to admit the pauper at night might be discussed sod decided. -- /fir.lftioxsailinl7;last district, the Easteod, such cases were innumerable. He feared, however, that a magistrate bad no jurisdiction in the matter. He believed the ease was one which ought to be referred to the authorities at Gary dyr-howie. Major Lyon wished to know whether it was not au offence under the poor law for a parish to refuse to receive a casual pauper when in a state of absolute destitution. Mr. Knox did not think it was an offence for which be could issue a summons. The case might be one of inhu manity, but it was not such a legal offence as must be set forth on the summons when granted. Major Lyon would have no objection to stand in the plate of complainant against the pariah on behalf of the pauper, as the question was one of great importance, not only to the coma destitute, but to all parishes. His desire was to open the doors of workhouses to proper objects, and not to have the matter left to the diacsotion of a porter. Mr. Hoot said his experience taught him that parishes were not so much to blame in these refusals as the night porters, who were generally selected from the old and infirm inmates, and who were perhaps too idle or too sleepy to admit proper applicants. He did not think that magistrates had and . jurisdiction in such cases ; but be would not speak pouVraly. He had always found that ex r:ttras what parishes most dreaded, aid the beet pro er: the pampers' rights. Major Lyme ens mirth obliged to the magistrate for the attention he bad gives to the matter, which he hoped would have publicity. 13013THWARH. _ Mr. Dosed Amok ea Anieneee gentleman, wee lereggitt before Yr.
