Mr. Stun complained of a miareprenntation in the Tames' report of the last day's roasedires. Gibaon was made to say in bis 'videos* that his (Start's) soa had obtained from him certain letter " surreptitiously." Mr. Gibson denied having used the ward " surrepti tiously," what ha said was " unwarrantably." Mr. Walker, Mr. eibect's town agent, was then entwined by Mr. Bagley as to what passed at tho meeting of creditors in Dec., 1847. Mr. Beebe, was employe.) to furnisa a halease•sheet, but *sold not do so without the as , ristalle• of Start, who refused. The statement prepared for the creditors showed a d, ficiency et 2,2101. which it was sup. posed would be covered by Gibson's private property. Mr CutbiU, the manager of the Commercial Bank, told witness he expected to have a balsam of 1,0001. to refund after the securities were realised. The wan, as then went into a number of items of set:oast which have already appeared in Gibma's examination.

Torsnav EVINIKO. The business done in the English fuses to-day was rather limited, the deeding' being for the most part oonfined to the speculative operations of the members of the Stock Exchange, in which the ceilings of the " preponderated, causing a week market, and a decline of 1, from which prioes 'did not recover. Console were first celled et yester day's closing pricey, 931 to t both for transfer, and the 14th instaot, from which they declined to 1, but were last done at 931, closing at 931 to 1, both for money and Thursday next. The Three per Cents. Reduced marked 96 and 931. The New Three-and-s Quieter per Centr, were dm va riously from 98 to 9131, the first and last price !icing 98t.

In the foreign house the transactions to-day have not been of any magnitude, the attention of the dealers being mush taken up with the approaching settlement, which is, as might be expected from the large business which has been done of late in South American securities, a very he ivy one, and will no doubt exhibit some large differences. Peruvian were better, and left off at the highest quotation 813, whilst Buenos Apes were last marked 68, being 3 g e o r a r s nt. below the lowest price yesterday. Equador have not improved since the meeting yester day: they last marked 33. Russian Five per Carts. were done at 1093; ditto, Four-and-a-Half per Cent. Scrip, from 11 to 23 pm. The actual business include s; Buenos Ayres Bonds, at 59, 3, and 58. Danish Five per Cents.., at 100. Equador at 4, 31, and 31. Gre nada Deferred at 43.

The rates of ex hangs for this mail for bills on Hamburg and Austrian places were rather higher, and on Cadiz bills were negotiated at 60. On Leg horn the exchange fell to 30. The quarterly sales of Indigo which commenced to day, included 8,444 chests Bengal, Oude, Bc.; 1,161 Nadras; 618 Kurpah; 66 Bimlipatam ; 12 Manilla; land 3,790 various in second hands. The following report of the sale bas been issued this evening by Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewebury : The qualPies of tte Bengal are shout one-fourth good and gas, and three-fourths middling and ordinary. The Madras one-third middling and ordinary, and two-thir.is good awl fine. The Kurpah two-thistle middling and ordinary, and one-third good and fine. The Oude, Bienlapatans sad Manilla chiefly ordinary. The sale-room presented a lull appearance, including • fair attendance of foreign buye,s, but for the home trade very few, the latter considering that the advance which has taken place since last October sale would not be maintained ; the result, however, of ices the first day has not only so lar established the late rise, but has even gone beyond it. The sites opened with a parcel or Bmeal, which, after trying a new lota at lull9d. per lb. ad vance, was withdrawn, and other parcels were offered, which sold readily at 61. to Bd. per lb. above Oetob. r rates for Bengal; 4d. to 61. per lb. 60011111 for Madras and Kurpah, and 4d. per lb. above for Oude. 1,022 chests b .ee paned co ds!, of which 261 were withdrawn, 206 bought in, and 565 sold.

Wawa Blake and Perkin of Sheffield, have just issued their circular on the steel trade, ar.d although replete with much interesting &tail, depicting the improved condition of that branch of business, we necessarily are limited to the following brief extract : A very improved suit, of things exists in this branch of manufacture, u compared with last year. There is scarcely an unemployed furnace, tilt, forge, or rolling mill in Sher. field. The price of foreign iron, for the commonest steel purposes, rules in Oattenburg and Stockholm, from stook purchases, at an advance of from 10 to 15 per cent., with reluctance on the part of the Swedish iron manufacturer, to enter into engagement' for the coming season, even at this advance. Ali Idle clam and best marks are firm, and have maintained their prints all through the depression, although the pries of steel has fallen, during the last two years of dis turbed trade, to an sleet nos-remunerative rate. At no former period is its history has there been much a fall ; and it is only reasoning from analogs to say, that, with the ad vanes of iron, an advance, in the MIN ratio, may be ex pected in steel. The stocks of steel being.low amongst dealers and consumers, any state of things giving employment to the latter, will PLUM a demand which mast be satisfied, at the dist of an advance. And when the great increase of exportation to the United States is considered, the manu facturer for the continental or home markets may fairly ex pect an advance in the spring upon his last year's pricer, from the withdrawal of cnmp-tition. In many branches of the trade, the operatives here have regained their old prices, and in most others are fast taking up this position ; which natural and healsby action, resulting from real improve ment, will produce en unavoidable necessity on the part of manufadurcn, to be proportionately remunerated in the sale of their goods. Even in branches not connected with steel, such as silversmiths, silver platers, B -itannia metal, stove grate, and fender mtnu'acturers, &a.

The commissioners are 12a enabled to state that those provisions of the eopyhold acts, . 6 4 which empower the parties to pay the enfranchisement money r to trustees. mil thus to dispense with its payment into the g e Court of Chancery, have worked very eatisfactorily, and that yo these powers are much resorted to by the owners of mole- 13 siastical manors.

If, however, no general compulsory mea cm Is adopted, erste power. of effect ng compulsorily It the extinction of bastion, sad of amending and settling 10 the Byrum of stewards' fees would, we know, be emaidered • boon to a very large portion of the country. Little or no 2,1/ objection would probably be made in parliament to such 10 limi.ed measures.

Only • be small number of the shareholders wen present.—Mr. Bt . lone bionic'', who occupied the chair, brought before fie the meeting a aeries of resolutions, setting forth that the M isolated position of railway ehareholden, and the want of dare rreponsibility in the directors were sources of great 113 mimbiel ; suggesting that the sha reholders In that district should form • committee to watch over their interests ; that, among other things, they should send a deputation to the hallyearly meeting at Derby, to be supported personally or by wits a; and that they should support the system of not re-electing any director who went out by rotation until he had been out at least twelve months. He also proposed the adoption of • petition to parliament setting forth that the railway property of the country wee is a greatly depressed state and ascribing it to various causes, but pray ing that parliament would grant a special committee to make enquiry into the system of railway management, and the causes of the depressed Mete of the property. The first and second resolutions were carried, but considerable dinumion Wok place upon that which prop:sed that any director roar lag by rotation should be ineligible for re-sin:Ws for twelve nau itha ; and it was in the sod spied that the subject was one of tots important • character to be decided by an small a number of proprietors. The meeting resolved itself into a committee to take steps to convene a larger meeting of the shareholders in this neighbourhood, sod the chairman (Mr. Inlaid.), Mr. Francis Newton, Mr. O. Chambers, Mr. Odlott, and Mr. Harrison, wen requested to sign a requisition to the shareholders to attend such mt. ung. Some discumion tcok place upon the inconveni ence which many of the shareholders would experience from the tircumataace that the half•yearly meetings of the Mid lend, the Manchnten, Sheffield, and Lineolnahlre, and the Ifrit, Newcastle, and Berwick Companies, were all filed toe one dry. It was resolved that the chairman should write to the directors, urging that the day flied for the meeting shouid be ch anged.!

RAILWAY MEETINGS. THE CALEDONIAN. Yesterday an adjourned meeting of the proprietors was held at Freemason's Hall, for the purpose of electing direetors to fill up the vacancy caused by the resignation of the existing board. The chair wu taken at twelve o'clock by Mr. J. L. H. iOIOIBTONIC, the chairman of the board. The CHAIRMAN said there was one member of the ex isting board with regard to whose re-electien there was, he believed, no difference of opinion —he referred to Mr. Copilug—(cheep)—and, uniela another course were pre ferred by the meeting, he would eugge t that that gentle man's reeisinetion shout! be dispensed with. (Hear, hear.) Mr. DEAN said be wished, on behalf of the central ecm mittee, to put a question to the directors which affected the constitution of that meeting. Frem the report of the com mines of inv:stigation, it appeared that there were then on the register shares representing 170,0001, upon which, in the majority of cases, mot one shiliieg bad been paid for the use of the company; thus skaree being registered in the names of men of straw, who were made to stand in the same position as the bona fide sha.eholden. He would I.kt to know whether proxy papers in reference to that meeting had been issued to the pulses in whose names those abates were registered. The CHAIRMAN said that as the shares still appeared in the register ' proxies hal been issued. Mr. DE AN did not hesitate to ray publicl y that to create fic titious shares in that way, and to allow the parti s registered to vote, was a scandalous fraud on the real shareholders. (Cheers.) If the meeting went to a vote, and the 'novo' in question were uszcl, the matter should not stop there. (Hear, hear.) Mr. H. HINDE, the deputy-chairman, said the course which Mr. Dean bad declared that be would take would be the proper one. The parties who held the shares referred to were shareholder independently of the sbaro.s iu question. It would be for the ocrutineers to determine whether such shares should he received. Capt. PLUNK ETT then proposed, on behalf of the central committee, the adopti o n of the following list of directors : The Hon. Edward Plunkett, Captain. R.N. ; John Copling, jun , Etq., Hackney; Jame, Baird, Esq , Garteherrie, Glu cose; Thomas Thoroborrow Fawcett, Efq., London; Tetouan M'blickine. Esq., Ediabureh ; Douglas Campbell, Esq., Edinburgh; Richard Pottrr, Esq., London ; Withsm Johnstone, Esq., Commercial Bank, Glasgow ; John Duncan, Esq., Aberdeen. He commented at some length on the claims of the candidates for the di rectorship. He objected is Mr. Locke on the ground that he had hitherto been the professional adviser of the existing directors', and was therefore responsible for their acts, Mr. LOCKE, M.P., said he had been ttquested to offer himself for election, and he had consented solely for the purpose of securing harmony. (Hear, hear.) He would be no party to dissension, and he was deter mined to withdraw his came if difeord was produced by its retention. (Cheers.) With regard to the contract for the construction of the line for 1,200,0004 he believed the directors were not blameable for entering into it. The great compl-int with regard to railways, namely, that the parliamentary estimates were always ex ceeded, was thus removed in their own case; and the line had been constructed for 13,5004 per mile. As to the main tenance of the permanent way, ex:ierience had taught him that the chief expense occurred in the first 7 years. and that 1701. per mile was not an etc - MiT4I price in the case of a new railway. He had been of jeered to on the ground of his con nexion with a number of other lines. He would not dispute the fact, and if it were considered a rea son why he should not sit on the Caledonian, board, let him be rejected. (Cheerio.) He had seen enough of the temper of the meeting to convince him that his views with regard to the Caledonian Railway were not acceptable. He still believed that the general policy pursued by the directory, and forced upon them by parliament, was the proper peliey ; but he would not retire if the directors thought be could be of the least use. After some e•mvenatiun The CHAIRMAN proceeded to put the news of the candidat. a seriatim. Capt. P.unkett was first elected unanimously. The retention of his seat at the board by Mr. Copliog was saocti.ned by the meeting. Mr.!. B.lrd was elected without oprsition. On Mr. Fawcett being proposed, •• Mr. COLQUHOUN proposed to substitute the name of Mr. A. Campbell, of Inveragh, and the show of hands being adverse, demanded a poll on behalf of that gentleman. Copt. PLUNKETT asked the chairman how the proxies sent to the board, after an agreement had been entered into between the board and the central committee, would be used in polling. It apptared to him that they ought not to be used contrary to the intentions of the parties represented by t..em The CHAIRMAN said th• y had been placed at the dis cretion of the directors without the least restriction. Capt. PLUNKETT would like to see the gentleman who would get np iu that room and declare that he placel the least degree of confi !elms in the directors dhcretoon. (Laughter.) If there were any such person, he ought to he sent to the Phrenological Society, in order that it might he ascertained to what extent the organ of credulity bad been develop. d. (Laughter.) The CHAIRMAN said that with regard to the last ob servation of Captain Plunkett, be thought the meeting would scree with him that he would evince the beat t late by not replying to it; but this he would say, that the directors would have acted a most base and unworthy part had they consented to place the management of that company under the dictation of Captain Plunkett and other gentlemen with out consulting the shareholders. (Hear, hear.) He could assure Captain Plunke:t that there were a great many per sona who were still willing to repose confidence In (Hear, bear.) On Mr. M•Mieking being proposed, Mr. STIRLING prop:sed to substitute the name of Mr. Locke. . . . . . . The meeting having decided by a large majority in favour of the first-mentioned candidate, Mr. Stirling demanded a poll on behalf of Mr. L icke. Mr. LOCKE said tha- after witnessing such a manifesta tion of the sense of the meeting, he felt bound, in accord ance with the pledge he had given, to withdraw his name. (Cheers.) Mr. CAMPBELL said that as he could not consent to net without Mr Locke he should follow that gentlem,-a's example. (Cheers.) The only opposition car ditlates having thus withdrawn, the remaining names on he lie; of the committee were approved. The ClLAlallaN was then about to retire, when Captain PLUNKE fT expressed his regret for haring said what had wounoed his feelings. For the chairman's private character he entertained the greatest respect. ( H The CHAIRMAN said it gave him great plessure to hear such an apology. Notwithstanding all that had otcurred, he should ever feel a deep interest in the success of the Cale donian Railway; and he cordially hoped that the measures about to be carried out by Captain Plunkett and his col leagues would prove advantageous to the company. (timers.) The meeting then separated. GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND.
