He con sidered that the Conservative party throughout England owed to Lord Palmerston a deep debt of gratitude for that step. (Hear.) Since he (Sir John Pakington) had had the honour Of taking a part in public affairs, he had never seen a man con duct a.difficult state of affairs with more tact, more ability, or more firmness than Lord Palmerston had shown' on that occasion. (Cheers.) The differences in the. Cabinet were extreme. He (Sir J. Peking •ton) being on the committee appointed at that time, had' an opportunity of acquiring a knowledge of them; but notwithstanding the railing of Mr. Glad stone and the quieter opposition of Lord J. Russell, Lord Palmerstun triumphed. (Cheers.) But al though successful, Lord Palmerston succeeded at the cost, as nearly as possible, of breaking up his party and his Government. What he should insist upon was, that they should not rest satisfied because Lord Palmerston, had been successful in that one instance in resisting the Radical influ ence in the Cabinet. He had yielded on the com mercial' treaty, on • the Reform Bill, and on the budget, • and they must not trust to their having a COnservative Premier, for. such he believed him to be at that moment. They must not expect to find security in that circumstance if he should be ham pered by Radical associations. If they continued the end of it must be that the Government would be dragged down to the Radical level, and be corn = palled to pass Radical measures whether they ap proved of them or,not.. (Cheers.)

What.is.to become of this army whet, the Piedmoutese come and take possession of the country In spite of all pedantry and prejudice, it cannot be the intention of the Piedmontese War Department to see this volunteer force dispersed, which, amlng some rubbish, contains splendid ele ments. Precedents are not very reassuring, and whoever remembers what was done last year with the Cacciatori delle Alpi in Lombardy, and later in Central Italy, cannot have much trust in the Pied montese authorities knowing how to avail them selves of this volunteer element. The element is so different from that supplied by the conscription for which the Military system' df Piedment is calcu lated, that a regular fusion becomes difficult, if not impossible. Last year, when La Marmora reigned in the War-office, the Government went so far as to refuse not only to retain most' of the. officers, but even to recognise in those who resigned the right of holding their honorary rank gained on the bat tlefield.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other squally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."--London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady.

There was a public dinner at the Guildhall, .at . which Sir E. A. H. Lechmerc, Bart., presided. Viscount Elml e y, M.P., Hon. F. EYgon, and, the Right Hon. Sir J. S. Pakington,- Bart, were among the guests. After several introductory toasts; the Chairman having given " The House of Commons," Sir J. PA K INGTON replied ,to the• toast at some length, and-particularly addressed his observations to the late and present Government, and the obli gations of the House of collllllolll3. He expressed his conviction that the larger portion of members of that how sir 40.3b.sie-Abissciga,,theawsss, try ; Very first duty of the present House of Commons had been, he need not remind them, to give him and his colleagues notice to quit, or rather, perhaps, he 'should say, they had served them with a notice of ejectment. Now, they, as men of the world, knew that tenants served in that, manner always felt aggrieved. He and his, colleagues felt so. They felt that they had managed the nOsiness of the house on pound principles, and that they had left the pre mises in quite as good repair as they had found them. (Laughter.) But his experience as a landlord had taught him that tenants under moat circum stances were not always the best judges of their own case. He would ask what had been done in the late session of Parliament? Government had passed 1 one of the worst and most revolutionary, financial plans that had ever been submitted to the House of Commons, and they had wasted a great deal of time. He believed that the majority of the House of Com mons who had passed the objectionable financial plan really disapproved of it as much as he did, and although for party purposes they'voted for it they disapproved of it. As to the waste of time in the last session, his honest opinion was that the House of Commons had borne more blame than it deserved. He had repeatedly said, and a few years ago he' took public action in the House of Commons founded on his convictions, that his opinion - was that the enorpaotts business of the country had outgrown the forms of the House of Commons, and he believed it was necessary to modify the existing rules and prac tices of that house. He trusted that- nett session something would be. done with that object. .But. why . the House of Commons bad done so little last session was that the Government had called upon it to do more than was poisible: They had been asked to consider and adopt a commercial treaty with France, to consider the details of the Budget, to re model the whole representative system of England, to pass a Bankruptcy Bill of deep interest to the commercial interests of the country, containing 500 clauses—(laughter)--and the members of the Government must bare well known that to get through all these measures in one session was utterly - impracticable. No ordinarysession could be expected to get through more than two of their great mea sures in addition to the ordinary business of the country. (Hear, hear.) It was unreasonable therefore to lay upon the House of Commons the blame, because the last session of Parlia 'ment was not productive of much legislation. The House of Commons deserved the grati tude of the country for the general disinclination shown by moderate men on - both sides of the house to pass the Government Reform Bill. (Hear, hear.) He and his colleagues had been turned' out of office because it was said their Reform Bill was not a' good one, and that the then Opposition would., bring in alietter. Bat when they took their places what did they do ? They procle(3d a measure which the House of Commons declined to pass al-' most unanimously, and the Government were obliged to withdraw the bill. (Cheers.) His opi nion was that the subject which should inspire the country with the most anxiety with regard to the House of Commons was the present state of politi cal parties in that house. Under our constitutional system, exercising the powerin the State which the House of Commons did, he believed that the action of party was essential and advantageous, but that it could only be so when the organisation of parties rested on the basis of honest concurrence of politi cal opinion and political principle. When, parties were based on mere watchwords and symbols irre spective of political opinion and principle, instead of being advantageous they were dangerous and de lusive, and in his opinion the organisation known as the great Liberal party was founded on watch- Words .and symbols, and not on the concurrence of political opinion. (Cheers.) That party consisted of two portions, each more opposed to the other than the more Conservative of the two was opposed to the Conservative. They had combined together not to overthrow a principle, but to overthrow a particular Government.. He thought he could give them the substance of what had been said .by one of the parties to the other when the alliance was made. The substance of the proposition might have been in these terms :—" It is true that we are opposed to each other on almost every political question of the day, and that we have been con stantly abusing each other, hut unhappily it is also true that we are all out of office. (Hear.) There fore, though we cannot think together, let us act to gether and we shall overthrow the Government. (Cheers.) He believed this was th e real character of the overture that had been made; the bargain was sealed, and the plan having succeeded, the late Go. vernment was overthrown. (Hear.) Then, in forming a new Government, common fairness de manded that those who had been parties to that joint action should jointly reap the fruits of it, and consequently both parties became members of the Cabinet, and England was exposed to the novel experiment of trying- how long it might be possible for men who differed from each other, on almost every subject to carry on the Government of the country. As to the fruits of that alliance, they saw in the different sections of that Cabinet men differ ing widely from each other on every•subjeot. They differed on the subject of 'the Commercial:' Treaty, the Budget, the Reform Bill, and-last, though not least, on the course to be taken when the Ho of Lords rejected the Paper Duty Repeal Bill. (Loud cheeri.) It was most dangerous for a country like England to be governed in this manner ; - and the result of trying to govern the-country on such prin ciples as these was, that the nominal leaders whom they believed to be guiding public affairs were in reality the tools of inferior and irresponsible men. They were pushed on to support measures of which they thoroughly disapproved, because, if they did not, they would forfeit the places which they had made such' sacrifices to obtain. (Hear.) He would illustrate his remarks by the mode in which the Commercial Treaty had been dealt with. Who was it that suggested that treaty ? Mr. Bright in July, 1859, first mooted it in the House of Commons. That treaty was in fact the creation of Mr. Bright and Mr. Cobden. Lord John Russell, when it was first talked about, .and Lord Palmerston gave ex pression to sentiments against any such treaty, but Mr. Cobden went on, and without authority commenced negotiations at Paris to the surprise of our Minister.there, Who wrote home for informa tion on the subject. But the signal had been given by the democratic section of this false alliance, and Lord Palmerston and Lord John Russell re tracted in January all that they had said in July, in obedience to the Radical section of the Cabinet. (Hear, hear.) The budget afforded another illus tration of the working of this alliance. If any Minister had ever been committed on any, subject of national importance, Mr. Gladstone had been committed on the income tax: But the Radical section Of the Cabinet had determined to adopt a new principle of finance, and the Government, yielding to that section of their supporters, the man who was so pledged against the income tax yielded to the pressure of the democratic section, and brought forward his budget. And so with regard to the Reform Bill. When Lord' John Russell sketched his measure in the spring of last year, Lord Palmerston entered his protest against it. But the alliance had been effected, and Lord Palmerston was obliged to revoke his expression of dissent. H a ppily, for England, (Hear, hear.) and, however, the good sense of the House of Commons .prevented the scheme being carried out, though there were no thanks due to the Conservative part of the Cabinet on that score ; they yielded' to' the vressure of the Radical alliance. It would be wrong if, while speaking on the subject, he did not allude to the part which. Lord Palmerston had taken on the occasion of the rejection of the hill-for the repeal GARIBALDI'S ARMY. (From the Special Correspondent of the _Times.) CASERTA, OcT. 19. There is a lull both in war and politics. In the front, towards Capua, things have never been more quiet ; even the cannon shots from the other side of the river, so common before, are now quite an event. Two nights ago there was a little excite ment, but it proved *quite gratuitous. Several telegrams were sent by the Piedmontese officer in command in St. Angelo to Garibaldi at Caserta, informing him that the enemy seemed to make preparations to throw a bridge across the Volturno, between the IVlolini di Triflisco and Scafa di For micola. All the troops, both at Santd Marii and Caserta, were early - under arms in consequence, and Garibaldi , himself was off to St. Angelo before dawn; but it turned out that the alarm was owing to the movement of several boats on the river, which common, almost every-day manoeuvre, was by the patrols interpreted as concealing more serious intentions. But while our troops here had comparative rest there was a collision between the. Neapolitanaand the volunteers and National Guards of the Matese mountains and of . the province of Molise. Yon will recollect the expedition. of Colonel Csudafy, with 300 men, in the direction of that range. One of its objects was to serve as a nucleus to an insur rectionary movement on the flank of the Neapoli tans. The smallness of the force and the vicinity of large bodies of Neapolitans cowed down the people, although the dispositionof the better classes in town and in the country was good enough. Partly to punish their good intentions, although they never had been carried into effect, but chiefly to get rid of the national and liberal element on this dange rous point, by means of some of the members of the bigh aristocracy, aided by the ignorance of the po pulace, a reactionary movement was got up by the Neapolitans. A look at the map will explain the impedance of this measure. The province of Molise is the point of junction of the roads from the Abruzzi, from Termini ' and the Capitanata, towards the Volturno and Nap les; con sequently it is on the line of operations of the Pied montese-troops, which are approaching from north and east; The mountainous nature of the country and its extensive forests` increase the importance given by the geographical position of this province, affording, as they do, great facilities to oppose the advance of an army. All these considerations made it desirable for the Neapolitans to clear the province of the many elements which were adverse to them. They set to work, distributed money, made promises, and armed the populace of the towns and the peasantry of the country, who, encouraged by some of the re actionary leaders, began soon to insult and threaten those who were known to possess something and to be favourable to the new state of things. Both at Isernia and at Campobasso, the capital of the pro vince, the Liberals soon found themselves under the pressure of the mob and exposed to lose life and property. The common danger forced them to self defence, and the National Guards of several of the chief places united to drive away these armed bands. They were successful in several little skir mishes and forced the plundering mob to retire. In spite of this success, which was gained last week, it was easy to see that it could be only tem porary, and that the Neapolitans would soon send troops to take their revenge. Nor did the people of Molise make themselves any illusion in this re spect, and with the news of this success whicb was sent to Garibaldi came likewise the request for speedy help. It was difficult enough to accede to this request in an efficient manner at the time. The lines before Capua required all the disposable force, and a large body of men could scarcely be sent off so far without the greatest inconvenience, not to say danger. The point where the assistance was re quired, besides being far off, was entirely out of our line of operations. lf, on the contrary, a small number of men was sent off it would have been only exposing them to the fate of those who had been sent over before in driblets. Under these circumstances Garibaldi decided to send some of his trusty officers of Guides there to organize and lead the local forces of the National Guard, so as to enable them to make some resistance until circumstances per mitted offensive operations in that direction. In consequence, Captain Nullo, Lieutenant Yazio, and a dozen more of those bold young men who have acquired so fine a name as Garibaldi's Guides, were sent across to accomplish their usual dangerons work of forlorn hopes. They started at the beginning of this week, and reached their destination safely. Nor was it too soon, for the Neapolitans were already at hand, and the people considerably dispirited by the news of their approach. Every one was awaiting an xiously the result of their mission. Yesterday morning a messenger arrived bringing the news that the national forces had been driven back by the Neapolitans from the neighbourhood of Isernia. No details are as yet known how the thing hap pened, although one can easily imagine that imper fectly armed National Guards without much orga nisation could not be a match for regular troops. The defeat in itself signifies little enough, for probably as is usually the case in such circumstances, the resistance was not very desperate, and the National Guards took care to cover their line of re treat, but the fate of those who have compromised themselves and of their families is a more serious consideration, and it was chiefly this which induced Garibaldi to do sorething if possible to stay the work of reaction in that province. Accordingly, yesterday afternoon the Division Medici, consisting of four weak brigades, in all per haps 3,500 men, received orders to start towards Centorano, and, following the road skirt* Monte St. Michele to the north of Maddaloni, to descend to the Ponte della Valle, the Caroline aqueduct which carries the waters of Monte Taburno to the Royal gardens of Caserta. Under this latter leads the main road to the Colore, a feeder of the Vol turno, and across it to Campobasso and Isernia. In the evening and during the night the boats which had been prepared at St. Angelo for the passage of the Volturno passed Caserta in great haste, and went in the same direction. This movement, which is the evident forerunner of an offensive operation from our right flank, was, as I showed before, pro voked in the last instance by the check received by the national forces in Molise ; but probably this circumstance only accelerated what would have been done a day or two later, perhaps, without it. You are aware that the Piedmontese brigade under General Sonnax, whi c h h as l an ded at Man fredonia, i s a d vanc i ng in the direction of t Bene vento and the river Galore, which passes desc o it. W e d on 't k now exac tly w h e reit is at present, but, accordi ng t o th e l as t n ews, it m ust be ' near with enough to make a move towards it and unite it. As the main column of the Piedinottee is only f at Popoli—that is, quite forty miles from nr'the Vol turno—the isolated Sonnaz brigade might be placed in awkward position by an advance in great .forceht, its rI of the Neapolitans from Campobasso, flank. The movement, therefore, of the Medici division in the direction of the river Galore was advisable, not only as an indirect assistance to th e national party in the province of Molise, but like wise as a strategical m ove to unite with the Col umn of General Sonnaz. While we, on our side, have thus made an offen sive move, rumour does not cease to bring us news of offensive intentions on the part of the Neapo litans. Yesterday the whole town of Naples was full, I am told, of a great combined attack which is to take' place to-morrow,- and in consequence of which King Francis 11. is to make his entry into I don'ethink pedantry will go so far this year, for the blindest must see what advantages might be derived from this volunteer element, and even the most obdurate official red-tapeism cannot very well xefrtae-to-reco g .lArttarnominatiomrof'Olrittttttn exchange for the Kingdom ot the Two 6' icilies. But, nevertheless, if Garibaldi should retire, little or no thing will remain of this force. The affairs of Italy are not quite so settled that she can afford to lose this potent auxiliary ; hence, I should not be sur prised if efforts were made to keep Garibaldi. Indeed, I have good reasons to believe that such efforts will be made. If they are successful, which I rather doubt, then there is a good chance of Gari baldi having by next spring an army of 50,000 volunteers. As for the questions which Austria or any other Power might raise, it would be strange if Italy alone were prevented from employing a means of increasing her army which every other State more or less adopted, and if she alone, of all States, were restricted to the resource of conscription. _ _ OCTOBER 20. All is bright and fair , and still and quiet It seems the King of Gaeta and Capua has deferred his intentions as to Naples. Yesterday afternoon the Piedmontese General Mignon() went to Maddaloni to confer, with Medici, who has pushed on to the little river Lsebero, a feeder of the Calore, Sonnaz, with his brigade, can come down by Ariano and Avellino to join in our rear, or he can go to Benevento and 'thence either by the Valle Caudina to Maddaloni, or by the valley of St. Agata de Doti (supposed by many to be the true site of the defeat of'the Romans) to join Medici on the right, or else he may come down .by Voltu rara and Campobasso to the Calore. The. position which we hold now enables' us to unite with him speedily, from whatever side he comes. The Aosta Brigade is expected to arrive at Naples, so that three brigades will operate on this side against the Neapolitan position. According to.the last accounts from the north, the column of General della Bona, which entered the Neapolitan territory by Rieti and Aquila, had united on the 18th with the main body under the command of the King at Popoli. It is difficult to conjecture what will be the tactics of the Neapolitans to face the storm which is ap proaching from all sides—whether they will try and oppo s e the advance of the main column in one of the many favourable positions which are on the road, or whether, leaving Capua as an advanCed work, they will defend the approaches of the Garig liano and of Gaeta, on which, we are told, they have expended a great deal of labour. You probably know that the Powers will not recognise the blockade of Gaeta. This, and the occupation of the direct roads by Terracino, and Frosinone by the French, are rather advantages than disadvantages, 'for they leave an issue to those at. Gaeta. THE ENGLISH VOLUNTEERS AT CAPUA. (From the Special Corresponelcut of the Daily News.) GARIBALDI'S HEAD QUARTERS, CASERTA, OCT. 20. Fighting has been kept up for the last three lays between the outposts of the two armies, but nothing like a serious struggle has occurred. The day before yesterday the Piedmontese Brigade del Re was attacked in-its position of Casa Bianca, at the right of Sant Angelo, but the enemy was Vioroughly beaten by the brave bersaglieri. Two of these splendid soldiers have fallen prisoners, and it is ' reported they were immediately shot. I.have been Assured that the Piedmontese, having pushed a re connaissance under the walls of Capua, found one of the bersaglieri whose eyes had been torn from their sockets. Yesterday it was the turn of our countrymen. The English regiment, commanded by Colonel Peard, was sent as the outpost-towards the right, and had hardly taken up its position when it was attacked by a Neapolitan brigade. The fire lasted five hours, with an interruption of two. The Eng lishmen fought bravely to the last ; the first and third company charged the Neapolitans more than once, and thoroughly beat them. Colonel Peard lost six men, and had about twenty men wounded. Captain Tucker, an artist, who had long resided in Naples, was killed on the spot at the battery of the left. • This evening I came here for news, and heard that the Piedmontese are advancing fast. A divi sion under the command of Gen. De Sonnaz having landed at Manfredonia on the 14th, is coming through Piedimonte towards Maddaloni. This explains why the Neapolitans of Cajazzo have moved in all haste to Sant Agata de Goti to oppose the advancing march of their enemi e s. The King will by this time have reached Popoli, where the concentration of The army will be effected. To meet Victor Emmanuel General Scotti d'Arragona has been sent to Isernia to strenthen the small army of the Abruzzi, which General Klepi de la Grange commands. The whole of this force is not much below 14,000 men, and may beside reckon upon the armed bands of the Sanfedisti peasants, who are the worthy descendants of Cardinal Ri:ffo—cruel ruffians. If the Neapolitans get beaten in the Abruzzi they must , fall on the Garrigliano, in whose plains a pitched battle will, perhaps, be fought by concen trating the whole of the force Francis 11. can dis pose of, about 50,000 men. But such being the case, Garibaldi will in his turn attack Capua in the front, cross the Volturno, cut off the communica tions of the Neapolitans, and by turning their positions threaten•their rear.

It will hardly be credited, however, that the advices by the same mail state that the result to Mr. Ledger of the long and arduous effort s which ended in the successful importation of the first flock from Peru, has been personally ruinous.

REPORT OF THE LONDON DIRECTORS. The Londeji directors having recently received fri.en Canada the accounts of the efunpany, made up to the 30th June avail themselves of the opportun it y afforded by thilir distribution amongst the shareholder 10 make known t o them, and also to the bondholders, the e.xect state of the' company's fi na n ce s, which prove the distreeting fact of the impossibility of paying the interest on the second prefe rence bond s d ue on t h e I s t o f October, the steps V hicL. have been already t a k en s i nce th e l as t communication, and .th ose which the the object of re li ev i ng th e company from its pre; sent circular of 13th of July, with London directors recommend should be pu rl -mod embarrassments. I t h as b een a l rea dy mentioned in the that although authority had be on given to raise .C 1,500,000 on bonds or stock of the comport. Yf to pay off liabilities, and to increase the rolling stock, en d to meet the current wants of the year, the directors were I unable to ob'ain it on any terms. A memorial was axord-. ingly drawn up and presented by the directors in Canada to , the executive government, pointing out the existing con nition of the undertaking, and praying for relief. The Lon don directors had fully expected to have received before now an answer to this application ; but the visit of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales had so entirely absorbed the time of the various members of the Government that they were unable to take the subject into their serious considera tion, and they hare now only authorised your directors to announce that the subject of the Grand Trunk Railway wia be brought under the notice of Parliament, aFid that the its affairs. Your directorg are most anaips—and they are Government are about to issue a commission to inquire into authorised to add the malager in Canadainvestigatione one st r o s uld i t the wish, that a thoroughly searching inatio and. shareholders and bondholders of every denom n, tumid well versed. place; but they think it would be more satisfactory to the to themselves, that some one or two gen , . ~., LI - ran - Val , rnanazemthit, in whose 6.0 Engusn snuir.-arr , wonld have confidence, Should e mceed to Canaday tillo! m conjunction with the proposed Government ,contudssion, and for the purpose of co-operating with it in its imp investigation, report to them the result of their obserinin . The London directors have at present no individual iii view for this mission, and are prepared to consider favour abl y ' any recommendation of one or more persons ; but in the abs ance of stich nomination they will themselves select such a pers f. ' n, as they believe that they should thus act in accordance with the general wish of the shareholders and bondholders, anal consistently with the desire of the Government of Canada.' The London directors feel that there may be many points touching upon agreements with other companies, and upon the postal subsidy—which, in their opinion, is far too low in remuneration for the services performed—and other matters which require revision; but at the present moment all the company's operations are paralysed by their finan cial difficulties and the want of sufficient rolling stock to carry on and develop the existing traffic; and they look with confidence to the results of the inquiry to be instituted: to relieve them, by the future action and liberal policy of the Government and Legislature by some practical remedy from the existing . embarrassment of the company. The following is an estimate of the company's liabilities in England :-- To loans and bills payable in England Bills drawn by the company from Canada: 235,564 ---- X 2,018,232 Against which are hypothecated tho follow ing securities, viz.:— _ £275,600 2d Preference Bonds.. 326,000 Ordinary Bonds 0 47,200 Toronto Corporation 80nd5.... 32,500 Atlantic Atlantic & St. Lawrence Shares 074 7,500 Atlantic & St. Lawrence Bonds 4- 4 per Cent. Bonds 443,043 £1,575,189 Securities in hand £32,300 ordinary Six per Cent. Bonds Ditto 27,600 Seven per Cent. Bonds Add unpaid and overdue interest on Bonds.. 130,54,10 £1,705,689' The London directors have at present no exact return or any further floating indebtedness w hich may exist in Canada, for additional r olling stock provided since March, and other expenditure, but have desired such a report to be made. Since the estimate of the wants of the company in March last its pecuniary position has been dete riorated by the payment of interest on bonds and loans Difference in value of assets from fall in prices 250,000 £411,000 Whilst on the land to be resold, and valued at £120,000, only a small portion, realising L 5,000, has been sold; which will explain the increase in the net requirements of the company at the present time, as compared with the state ment issued in, March last. In the present embarrassed state of the company's affairs, and the uncertainty of relief from the Government adequate to meet its liabilities, Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co., and Messrs. Glyn, Mills, and Co. have obtained a judgment against the company for debts due to them and others whom theytepresent, which vests in their agents the power of seizure of the rolling stock of this road ; but this mea sure has been adopted for the general benefit of all present creditor's to guard against hostile prosecution of hadividual claims, and for the protection of the company's interests It had been the intention of the London directors to have convened a meeting of the shareholders in the early part of this autumn ; but the late receipt of the accoutas of the last half-year, and the delay in obtaining any airr swer from the provincial Government to the representa- - tions made by the Canadian direction, have involved the , necessity of postponing the semi - an nual meeting, and the directors now feel that the presence of the president, the Hon. john Russ, and the vice-president, Mr. Blackwell, has become requisite, to afford to the shareholders any in formation which may be wanted. These gentlemen are for the present - detained by the performance of their respective duties ; but as they have notified to their London col leagues that they will be able to felt England in the month of December next, it is proposed to call a general meeting of the shareholders in the middle of that month, of which timely notice will be given.—By order, JoHli M. GRANT, Secretary. Grand Trunk Railway Office, 21, Old Broad-street, E.C., Oct. 26.
