LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1862. The Federals seem to be advancing on all sides. We left General BURNSIDE at Elizabeth City. He has since advanced to Edentown, which surrenderel without resistance, 3,000 stand of arms being cap tured, and all the gunboats but two destroyed. Farther south on the Atlantic active measures were being taken to attack Charleston itself with heavy artillery, and Savannah was deprived of water by cutting the pipes. It looks now as if the Federals meant to commence the aggression in earnest on the Atlantic seaboard. But in the West the Confederates appear to be hard pressed. The dispersing of ZOLLICOFFER'S army and the capture of Fort Henry has now been followed by an attack on Fort Donnelson, and ac cording to the very latest telegrams, to Portland, by its capture. The attack commenced on the 13th ; the garrison was large, said to be fifteed thousand, under four generals. Of the particulars of the capture nothing is yet known, except that the gunboats took an active part in the engagement. The capture of this fort has compelled the Federals on the East of the Mississippi to fall back in every direction. They have been obliged to evacuate Bowling Green, in Kentucky, and the Federals are a dvancing southwards to Nashville, the capital of Tenness ee , and to Memphis, its extreme southern town and port, on the Mississippi. Meantime, [ General H ALLECR, successor to FREMONT has again pressed the C onfederates bask till the Federals have reoccupied Springfield in Missouri, on the other side of the Mississippi; and thus, on the Atlantic, and on both sides of the Mississippi, we hear of pal pd effective victories on the side of the MR. and MRS.

The matter may not seem to be very great, bit it is one in which the EMPEROR is deeply concerned personally; and that both in regard to the policy involved, and his own action in the busi ness. The questions really are—shall the second empire have, like the first one, a number of terri torial titles founded on military triumphs, which shall remain as long as an heir to wear them exists, as monuments to the glory of NAPOLEON 111. ; the next question is, when the EMPEROR demands the requisite pecuniary dotation, shall the Corps Legis latif be at liberty:to say—no. The EMPEROR has succeeded in creating a Duke of MALAKOFF, and a Duke of MAGENTA. He now desires, in honour of Chinese successes, to create a Count of PALIKAO, making even the Flowery Empire contribute laurels to the honour of the second Empire. General MONTAUBAN, when he found that the EMPEROR'S wish was objectionable to the deputies, wished the EMPEROR to withdraw his demand for a dotation. The EM PEROR replied in a firm tone that he should not withdraw it, and of course from that moment the EMPEROR and the Corps Legislatif were in anta gonism. It was naturally supposed that that body, most of them Government nominees at the elections, would quietly vote what was thus required of them ; but, most unexpectedly, they fight hard to have a mind of their own. It was under tood that the Chamber was willing to vote a dotation for life to the new Chinese count, but they were not willing to vote one to his heirs. As the General is not a wealthy man, this would of course interfere with the EMPEROR'S desire for posthumous reputation. He did not, like our House of Lords, relish the notion of Life Peers. How ever yielding the Count may be, the EMPEROR cannot make up his mind to yield; the more so as the new Count is one of his oldest coadjutors, having assisted him in his first unsuccessful attempts to seat himself on the throne of France. The EM PEROR, therefore, must feel that his credit is pledged in every way to the attainment of his end. Thus far the attitude of resistance is very threat ening. The committee on the Count DE PALI KAO'S pension reports to the Corps Legislatif, by an overwhelming majority, unfavourably to the Bill. The language of the report is, of course, studiously laudatory of the EMPEROR'S in • tentions, but it is equally decided as to their not being legal. They close their report to the House with the following mixture of flattery and firmness :—" At the moment," they say, " when it is about to propose to us a resolution inspired by motives of the most elevated character, the com mittee experiences a deep and sorrowful impression. We know that the Corps Legislatif will partake this sentiment, while differing upon one point from the intentions of the EMPEROR almost on the very morrow of the day when the ever-generous confi dence of the Sovereign has restored to us several of our essential privileees. But we have thought that, upon a question touching fundamen tal principles without involving any impe rial political necessity, the independence of our language would be the beat proof of the sincerity of our devotion. The accomplishment of our duty has been still more facilitated by the result of the votes being 182 to 34. The committee has not for a moment apprehended failing to be the true interpreter of the sentiments of the Assembly. The committee, therefore, unanimously proposes the rejection of the bill." What will be the course taken we cannot tell. The report of the committee to the body which appointed it ought to be final, and their amend- merits have been rejected by the committee, and remain, with the bill itself, fixed for discussion next Thursday. The committee appear to be confident that the House will agree with them. That it will do so, in point of opinion and feeling, can hardly be doubted ; since the Committee is likely to represent the real views o of the Corps Legislatif. But the EMPEROR is little likely to surrender such a point to those whom he considers to be his mere creatures. Yet how will he effect his object. The law forbidding en tails is against him. The committee adroitly base ,heir action on the law, while professing every wish to oblige their mast er . If th e EMPEROR persist he must either change the law or overide it, and that in the face of an opposition based on the law. In resorting to mere force their is no credit. A legislative coup d'etat would be but proclaiming himself to all Europe a hero of Captain WILKES'S fashion—a hero against the helpless. Most pro bably, therefore, means will be found to procure either a reconsideration of the vote, or to induce the whole House to act on the wish of the EMPEROR rather than on the report of their Committee. We are glad to see that the hon. member for Bodmin last night called the attention of the Pre mier to a very important subject. The suppression of the African slave trade has long been an object of great importance with the people of this country, who naturally think if they can put a stop to the slaver's exportation of his victims, and prevent the horrors of the passage, a very important step will be taken towards the abolition of that inhuman traffic, which is the disgrace of modern civilisation. The co-operation of several States has been, or should have been, secured by treaties which have not been kept with the good faith which the importance of the subject and the value attached to it by this country demanded. Spain has fallen far short of her en gagements, and there is now another delinquent. Mr. WYLD last night asked Lord PALMERSTON whether any communication had been made to the Government of the United States relative to the withdrawal of the American squadron from the African coast. The hon. member was also anxious to learn whether any attempt had been made by the British Government to induce the PRESIDENT to prevent the use of the United States flag by foreign slavers on the West Coast of Africa, and if any request had been made on the part of the English Government to obtain permission for the British ships engaged in the suppression of the slave trade to ascertain the nationality of ships which may hoist the flag of the United States. Lord PAL MERSTON, in his reply, confessed that the Govern ment of the United States had not fulfilled the terms of the treaty, and added that the British Cabinet had thought it necessary to make repre sentations on the subject. The answer was that the blockade of the Southern ports obliged them to withdraw part of their cruisers from the African coast. As the Premier very justly observe _ d — this important border State of Federals. The very almost cleared of Kentucky now seems to u. ' 4 4te south is rebels, and Tennessee, the next b.. - mice not only threatened by the advancing a. of the North, but we are told Southern des patches state that the Federal flag was cheered, as it advanced up the Tennessee River. One thing is gratifying—the announcement that prisoners of war will be exchanged, and political prisoners re leased on parole, and that extraordinary arrests will in future be made only by the military authorities. The next telegrams will now be awaited with great interest. There seems to be something like action at last. reply was most unsatisfactory, as its plain meaning was that the United States' Government had failed in executing the engagements of an important treaty, because the cruisers which ought to be em ployed in its fulfilment were occupied in maintain blockade which was very prejudicial to the interesiJ of this country. We cannot altogether coincide with Lord PALMERSTON'S faith in Presi dent LINCOLN'S earnest desire for the extinction of the slave trade. Had there been a hearty desire on the part of the North to atop the iniquitous traffic in humanity, the emancipation of the slaves would have been declared long since, and the sympathies of the greater part of Europe enlisted in their cause. It was said to be a forcible argument some years since against total abolition that it would create anarchy, discontent, and confusion, and possibly plunge the country into civil war. The validity of this reasoning has admittedly many friends of total emancipation, and a gradual destruction of the system was confessed to be more practicable though less desirable. But now when the evils spoken of have been brought about by the wrongheadedness of the people themselves, without much regard to their African brethren, when disgrace, and disaster, and financial difficulty have exacted a heavy payment for American arrogance and tyranny, it seems hard that the struggle should be brought to an inglorious termination or prolonged to an indefinite period without the great obstacle to American progress being finally disposed of, and the barrier removed from the onward and upward growth of the brave Republic of the New World. We much doubt whether President LINCOLN is equal to the op portunity, and certainly we are inclined to ques tion the good faith of a Government which Proves its anxiety to repress an objectionable traffic on the coast of Africa by removing its squa dron to the shores of the southern States of North America. Such active kindness sounds either like an Irish bull or an imposition on credulous simpli city. We are glad that our Government h ave thought it necessary to inquire into the su bj ect; it is also a matter of satisfaction that the hon. mem ber for Bodmin should keep a close surveillance over the indulgent laxity of our home officials, and the ingenious subterfuges of the American Cabinet. The mystery of the Neapolitan Proclamation is now cleared up. It would have been cleared up sooner, but Sir JAMES HUDSON, to whom Lord RUSSELL telegraphed, w as away from T ur i n a t t h e time—was indeed at Milan. An answer was how ever, forwarded by Baron RECASOLI to the repre sentative here of the Italian kingdom. The proclamation was not a forgery—it was genuine —but more to the credit of the Italian Government than bad it been a forgery. It was the concoction of a subordinat e o ffi cer (doubtless in imitation of that of MUR AT , i n the same district, and probably with int f i n ti ons of honest severity in behalf of the lif e an d property of innocent men), but it was instantly suppressed by the superior commander. There was accord ingly nothing for the British Minister to apprise his Government of at home. Nothing had been done by any responsible authority. The thing was as utterly unworthy of notice iu the House of Lords as any indiscretion of one of Admiral MILNES' Lieutenants, which the Admiral on the spot had rebuked and disallowed. LATEST NEWS. AMERICA AND MEXICO. NEW YORK, FEB. 15 (Morning). (Per Nova Scotian, by telegraph to Portland, and via Londonderry.) The Federal forces invested and attacked Fort Donnellson on the 13th. The cannonade lasted all day. One Federal gun boat assisted, and others were coming up. Three Confederate guns were reported to be dismounted. It was believed that the Federals had captured the left redoubt. A considerable number were killed and wounded on both sides. Fifteen thousand Confederates, under Generals Pillow, Floyd, Johnston, and Buckner, garrisoned the fort ; and it was thought the Fede rals would carry the place by storm to-day or to morrow. Southern despatches state that the Federal flag was cheered when proceeding up the Tennessee river. The Confederates had agreed to a general exchange of prisoners. The Secretary of War had issued an order for the release of all political prisoners, ex cept spies, upon their giving their parole not to aid the enemies of the Federal Government. All per sons so released, who keep their parole, will be amnestied for past treasonable offences. Extraor dinary arrests will in fut Tire be made only by the military authorities. The House of Representatives has passed the Naval Bill, with an amendment appropriating 1 5,000,000 dols. for gunboats. A general impres sion exists that a strong effort will be made in the House of Representatives to cancel the clause of the Treasury Bill making interest payable in coin. LATEST. NEW YORK, FEB. 14, It is reported from Port Royal that the steamer Isabel had been captured off Charleston with a cargo of cotton. The British prize schooner Stephen Hart, captured off Florida, had arrived at New York. The cargoes of the steamer Lewas and the schooner Vien, valued at 60,000 dollars, captured off Florida, had also arrived at New York. General BurnEide's official account materially confirms previous reports as to the capture of Roanoke Island and Elizabeth city. The Federals had occupied Eden Town without resistance, had taken 3,000 stand of arms, and destroyed or cap tured all the Confederate gun boats except two. General Halleck had telegraphed to the War De partment that the Federals have occupied Spring field. The Confederates retreated after a short engagement, leaving their stores and camp equi page. It is reported from Port Royal that the Federal gunboats have cut off the communication between Savannah and Fort Pulaski. The Federals had destroyed the water-pipes supplying water to Savannah, and were about to land a force of 8,000 men. Twelve Federal regiments will immediately make an expedition inland to the railroad, and `hence to Charleston, accompanied by heavy artil- Rry. The steamer St. George had arrived out. The Asia has arrived out. MEXICO. Advices from Vera Cruz are to the 29th ult. _ _ Miramon has been arrested on his arrival at Vera Cruz, by order of Commodore Dunlop. He would not be allowed to land in Mexico. The Allied Commissioners had returned from the city of Mexico. They have reported that Juarez had received them with great consideration. Juarez had attempted to exact, as condition for negotia tions, that the allied forces should re - embark, with the exception of a guard consisting of 2,000 men. Thi3 had been declined. Jaurez had admitted that the Government had not fulfilled its obligations to foreigners, and had said he was willing to give additional guarantees. A Plenipotentiary of Juarez bad returned with the Commissioners, and it was, therefore, supposed that further conferences would ensue. No fighting had occurred. The allied forces were preparing to march into the interior if their demands were rejected. PARIS, MARCH 1. In yesterday's sitting of the Senate M. Gabriac spoke against the paragraph of the address relative to the Roman question. M. de Laguerroniere explained the different phases of the Roman question, and urged the ne cessity of maintaining the temporal power of the Pope. In his opinion Naples had been rather con quered than annexed, and the movement, which until then had been only a national one, was fol lowed by revolution, " Manifestations," he said, "are now being organised to urge the Govern ment of King Victor Emmanuel to proceed to Rome. But on the day Victor Emmanuel would be crowned at the Vatican popular excitement would push him on to Venice, and a war would be the result." 1 M. de Laguerronniere expressed sympathy for Venice, but said its liberation ought to be the re sult at a later period of an honourable arrangement, and not of war. He repudiated all idea of aban doning Rome, saying that "France must resist Italy on this point." He also descanted upon the excel lence of the Treaty of Zurich, and the ideas of a confederation, and pointed out that it was Prince Napoleon who, by his winning and persuasive words, determined the Emperor Francis Joseph to accept conditions of peace. Prince Napoleon regretted the remarks of M. de Laguerronniere, and said, "At Villafranca I only executed the orders of the Emperor. It is not for NEW YORK, FEB. 15 (Evening). It is reported this evening, on very good autho. rity, that the li ederals have captured Fort Don• nellson. The Confederates have evacuated Bowling Green, and the Federals are marching on Nashville and Memphis. Money easy ; Exchange on London very firm, at 1151; gold steady, at 4 to 41 premium. Stocks dull; New York Centrals, 81i; Erie, 34t-; Illinois Centrals, 59. Cotton, owing to forced sales, has been sold as low as 25c., and is dull at nominal prices. Middling Upland, 29c, to 30c. The Senate has passed the Treasury Note Bill, with the legal tender clause, and interest on Go vernment Stock and Bonds to be paid in specie. The proposal to allow deposits with the Treasury at 5 per cent. interest was disagreed from. The United States notes can be converted into 20:years Six per Cent. Stock, or Seven per Cent. 32 years Treasury Bonds. The Customs and Land Revenues will be pledged for the interest and sup port of the sinking fund on the public debt. The sinking fund is to receive annual contributions from the Treasury out of these revenues equal to 1 per cent. of the whole principal of the public debt. The St. Louis _Republican states that prominent men in Tennessee declare that as soon as the Union army enters that State 50,000 men will join the Federal flag. me to say what were those orders, nor what is my opinion respecting them." (Applause.) M. de Laguerreniere regretted the antagonism of the Papacy to Italy, but said it was necessary that Rome should remain to the Pope. " If," continued M. de Laguerronniere, "France permitted the Italians to go to Rome it would be a terrible blow to Conservative principles. An irre sistible impulse would be thereby given to the re volutionary element. France ought to remain at Rome until the force of events shall bring about an equitable arrangement between the King of Italy and the Pope. If Count Cavour were not dead that result might have been already attained." The debate was then adjourned until to-day, when Cardinal Donnet and Prince Napoleon will speak. The litoniteur of this morning states that the demands for the conversion of Four-and-a-Half per Cents. now amount to 79,000,000 f., and that the number of Obligations Trentennaires presented for conversion is 330,000. The Moniteur also announces that the France Centrale has received a second warning for the pro pagation of false news calculated to excite hatred and contempt of the Government. TURIN, FEB. 28. Seventy monks and priests of Comiso have signed a protest against the temporal power of the Pope, urging him to yield to the wishes of the nation. PARIS, FEB. 28. In to-day's sitting of the Corps Legislatif, Baron louvenel brought up the report of the committee upon the bill proposing to award a pension to the Count de Palikao The report acknowledged that the Chinese expe dition was a fresh proof of the power of the armies of France and of her political greatness. The Emperor, as ever, desired to reward in a worthy manner the services of the army and of the fleet. In proof of this the report mentions the commemorative medal distributed to those who had participated in the expedition, as well as the fact of its chiefs having been called to the Senate. The Corps Legislatif has been happy to associate itself with these proofs of gratitude. Referring to the special question brought under its notice, the committee believes itself forced, without yielding to more generous intentions, to bow to the authority of the law forbidding the creation of perpetual entails (nzajorats). The report discusses this question, and termi• nates thus:— "At the moment when it is about to propose to you a resolution inspired by motives of the most elevated character, the committee experiences a deep and sorrowful impression. We know that the Corps Legislatif will partake this sentiment, while differing upon one point from the intentions of the Emperor, almost on the very morrow of the day when the ever-generous confidence of the Sovereign has restored to us several of our essential privileges. But we have thought that, upon a question touch ing the fundamental principles, without involving any Imperial political necessity, the independence of our language would be the best proof of the sincerity of our devotion. " The accomplishment of our duty has been still more facilitated by the result of the votes being 182 to 34. " The committee has not for a moment appre hended failing to be the true interpreter of the sentiments of the Assembly. The committee therefore unanimously proposes ,he rejection of the bill." FRANCE. PARIS, FEB. 28. The Minister of State and the Countess Walewska gave a most brilliant fancy ball two nights back, The dresses were of extraordinary magnificence, and all the ornamentation of the rooms remarkable for elegance and good taste. The Emperor and Empress were present in domino. The Princess Anna Murat wore powder and a Court dress of the last century ; the Countess de Persigny appeared as Snowy Night ; the Princess Troubetzki as Peau d'Ane ; Mine. de Lutheroth was covered with dia monds ; and the Count de Demidoff wore the dress of a 'rcherkesse, having in his casque the splendid diamond which bears the name of his family. The Countess Walewska, as a foreteller of the future, did the honours of the night in a most attractive manner. M. Renan's passage in his opening lecture in the College of France, asserting the humanity of Jesus Christ, occupies the attention of nearly all the Paris journals, some of which express their disapproba tion. BOURSE, Feb. 28.—The Bourse has been again animated, and the arrangements for the settlement have been carried on without any diffi3ulty.

LORD CLARENC7? PAGET AND MB. T.ROTH AN. ROYAL PRINCESS'S THEATRE. "The Victoria Rifles" have just given their annual amateur dramatic performance, at the above theatre. The pieces selected were "Delicate Ground," "Good for Nothing," "Box and Cox," and the "Life Task," an original drama, never before acted. The performance went off very well, Mr. Haggard, Mr. Murray, and other gentle men, succeeding in amusing their friends greatly. The committee were fortunate enough to secure the services of that charming actress, Miss Carlotta Leclercq, and also those of Miss Powell, and these two ladies per ' formed in the several pieces admirably, Miss Carlotta Leclereq playing the heroine in the "Life Task" with great power and genuine feeling, and Miss Po well in the character of Nan in " Good-for-Nothing," keeping the house in a roar by her fresh and excellent humour, The "Life Task" was a great undertaking for amateurs, being a serious drama, but the author has a good idea of dramatic composition, and the drama contains telling situations. The author, Mr, Richard Lee, acted his own hero. Such a play upon such a night laboured under many difficulties and disadvantages, but we thchk there is stuff in it. The house was crowded, and the audience a most brilliant one. The excellent band belonging to the Victoria Rifles attended, and altogether the night may be pronounced to' have been a success, SURREY YWRAT.RE. Last evening a new drama, entitled " Adam Bede," founded on the celebrated novel, by C. Eliot, Esq., was produced here, with the most triumphant success. The task of adapting the work for stage representation was con fided to J. E. Carpenter, Esq., and he has succeeded to admiration, as the whole of the incidents in the novel have been most carefully preserved in a form that calls for the highest praise. It will be needless to give a detailed de scription of the plot of the piece, as that must now be well known by this time, we therefore prefer complimenting the actors engaged in the performance on the manner in which they sustained their respective parts. The principal cha racter—Adam Bede—was represented by Mr. Creswick, who made his first appearance since Christmas, and the general manner in which he was received by the audience must have been highly gratifying. His portrayal of Adam, the 0 rpen ter, was a most finished performance in everyrespect, and well worthy of the great applause it elicited. Mr. I rwine was capitally sustained by Mr. Vollaire ; indeed, we do not know an actor on the stage who could have given the part of the worthy pastor with greater finish. Mr. Vincent's Arthur Donnithorne was also a very commend able performance; so also was Mr. Evans's Seth Bede and Mr. C. Rice's Joshua Rann. Well as each gentleman sup ported his part they did not eclipse the ladies, more espe cially Miss Pauncefort and Miss Elizabeth Webster, the former of whom sustained the part of Hetty Sorrell, the latter, Dinah Morris. The scenery and dresses of the piece are exceedingly beautiful; and the whole piece has been placed upon, the stage in a manner that doesinftnite credit to Messrs. Shep herd and Oreswick. The applause at the fall of the curtain was unanimous and enthusiastic. The principal performers were all called for, and the drama must, without the slightest reservation, be pronounced a great and decided success. The Duke and Duchess of Roxburghe and Lady Charlotte Innes Ker have left the Clarendon Hotel for Floors Castle, Kelso, N.B. The Duke of Beaufort is expected in town in a few days from Gibraltar, for the season, The Marquis of Donegall has taken Hamstead Marshall, Berks, late the residence of the Countess Dowa ger of Craven, for a term of years. The Earl and Countess of Zetland arrived at their mansion in Arlington -street on Thursday, from their seat in Yorkshire. The Earl and Countess of Carnarvon have been entertaining a select party at their seat, Highclere Castle, Hants, during the past week. Among the company pre. sent were the Earl and Countess Stanhope, the Earl of Ducie, the Bishop; of Orford, Lady Emily Peel, Sir W.

THE WARRIOR.--A Parliamentary return was issued yesterday morning, from which it appears that the total cost of the Warrior, before being ready for sea, was £354,885. Thebbull was £251,646 ; the engines, £71,875; masts and rigging) £18,536 ; an d fi tt i ngs an d alterations, £12,828. The tenders for 40,00,000 rupees (X 400,000) in bills of exchange on India were opened yesterday in pre sence of two members of the Council of India and the Deputy-Governor of the Bank of England.

Sir,—Lest it might be inferred that I am one of the de faulting contractors alluded to last night in the House of Commons. or that I have " sued the Admiralty in forma pauperio" to be relieved from my engagements, as implied by the following erroneous statement of his lordship—viz., "He had not heard that they had refused to give Mr. Trotman's anchor an extra trial at Woolwich, but this he knew, that the Admiralty some months ago ordered an anchor of Mr. Trotman, and could not get it supplied ;" I aver solemnly no such order has at any time been trans mitted to me by the Admiralty. The Storekeeper-General on the 22d of July, 1861, requested to be informed " the price per cwt. of an anchor 95ewt., instead of 111 cwt., to be delivered at her Majesty's Dockyard, Woolwich ;" which elicited the following answer :—" That I was the inventor only, and not a maker or dealer in anchors, and annex the names of many licensed makers of Trotman's anchors." A month since the eminent firms of Hawks, Crawshay, and Sons actually delivered to the authorities the anchor in question, and the following is an exact copy of my note to the Superintending Lord of the Admiralty, dated " The Waiting-room, Admiralty, Feb. 8, 1862. " Sir,—l duly attended yesterday at her Majesty's Dockyard, Woolwich, and proposed, as before stated to you, my intention of submitting the 94cwt. anchor ordered for the Warrior to an unprecedented test--viz., 100 per cent. over -proof, or such as would be applied to an Admi ralty anchor of double its weight (say 190 cwt.) But the officers hesitated in your absence, or without special sanc tion, to acoede to my request. The purport, therefore, of this mete is to solicit permission accordingly, and, as a matter of course, I assume and do hereby assume every responsibility of consequences accruing therefrom to the anchor." The extraordinary performanees of last night, and re markable apathy of hos. members, granting in a few hours some £12,000,000 sterling for the Navy Estimates, will preclude all other opportunity, except through the medium of your columns, of setting my character right with the public. Earnestly soliciting insertion of this communica tion, I am, kc., JOHN TRUMAN. 42, Cornhill, Feb. 28. RAIL WA 1' INTELLIG_ENCB. SOUTH EASTERN. The report of the directors, to be presented to the half yearly general meeting on Thursday, states that the revenue receipts for the half-year ending the 31st January, 1862, have been £594,646 Bs.2de as compared with £624,350 9s. 6d, in the corres ponding period of the preceding year. The state ments of expenditure on revenue account show that the ordinary working expenses duting the six months have been £224,014 55.; the rates, taxes, tolls, and Government duty, £34,605 17s. 10d.; and the expenditure on the steampacket service, £18,073 15s. 11d., or a total of £276,693 18s. 9d. After providing for the fixed charges for rents of branch lines, interest on loans, annuities, dividends on guaranteed stock and preference shares, &c., there remains a net balance of £187,441 Bs. sd. available for dividend on the ordinary consolidated stock of the company. A dividend of 15s. per 30s. stock,or at the rate of £5 per cent. per annnm, will absorb a sum of £185,842 10s., leaving a balance of £1,598 18s. sd. to be carried forward to the next half-year; and this dividend the directors recommend to be paid on Thursday, the 13th of March next. There has been a decrease in the pas senger receipts during the half-year amounting to £32,252 18s. 2d. This has been occasioned almost entirely by opening of the competing line between London and Dover in July last, including a decrease (about £2,500) of receipts derived from the convey ance of troops ; though a considerable portion is attributable to the falling off in the receipts upon the North Kent line as well as at other points where the fares have remained unaltered and ne competition has existed. The opening of the noir railway through Kent, running almost parallel with the main South Eastern line, at an average distance from it of about 12 miles, and from the North Kent Railway of about five miles as far as Strood, must necessarily have operated adversely on the half-ye—'s receipts of this cornpany. It was felt that at the important points of Strood, Canterbury, and Dover, where the new com pany had established stations, a certain por tion of the traffic formerly carried by this company must have been abstracted ; while at other points, the tendency of the lower fares fixed by the new company would be to divert traffic to a considerable extent from intermediate stations on the South-Eastern main line. Under these circum stances it became necessary to revise and equalise the intermediate fares on the main line, and the new tariff came into operation on Aug. 15 last. After six months' experience of its working, the directors have no hesitation in stating that the result has fully justified the policy of the measure. It may be briefly explained that the modifications adopted have had the effect of preventing the diversion of much of the company's traffic to other routes ; that the number of passengers carried has been largely increased; and that the increase in the receipts at certain points has served in some measure to reduce the loss occasioned by the inevitable competition above referred to. This company has continued to labour under considerable disadvantages with refe rence to its West-eed traffic; but this disadvantage the directors hope will be effectually remAied by the completion and opening of the Charing cr oss Railway and terminus early next year, when this company will be placed in possession of the m ost convenient and accessible West-end station in the metropolis. There has been a decrease of about £5,000 in the receipts derived from the conveyance of bullion, which is explained by the exceptionably large export of gold in exchange for silver, to sup ply the requirements of the Bank of France, which occurred in the corresponding period of last year. This falling off has, however, been more than made up by the increased receipts from the carria ge of merchandise and parcels, both of which branches of traffic exhibit a satisfactory increase, the one of £6,443, the other of 11,369, during the half-year. The locomotive and carriage expenses exhibit an increase of £2,397, which is entirely due torenewals of worn-out stock in the carriage department, 8 7 new vehicles of an improved descriptions having been added to the effective carrying stock of the' company during the past half-year. The locomotive expenses per se show a decrease, although the te•airt mileage has been unavoidably increased for the due accommodation of the traffic. The cost of rerdairing and renewing the permanent way and v ior ks ex hibits a decrease of about £2,000 in the past half year ; but it will be observed from the report of the engineer that they are in go o d condition and have been efficiently maintained during that period.
