We cannot undertake to return rejected communica tions. 4.)_a_A ? :l k'4 -• • ‘ s'l - 1 , 4tiarina Att LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1852, The first general report of the Directors of the Anglo• Californian Gold-Mining Company, has been issued to the shareholders, and will be read at the first annual general meeting, which is appointed to take place on Friday next. It is a highly satisfactory document, explaining the various steps that have been taken by the expedition under the command of Sir HENRY VERE HUNTLEY since their arrival at the scene of their future labours, and clearly pointing out the present position and prospects of the company. Many difficulties have necessarily occurred, but they have been successfully encountered—avd we hope ere long to be enabled to congratulate the Directors and share holders on reaping a golden harvest, the legitimate re ward of their enterprize and perseverance. !t will be in the recollection of cur readers, that this company was the first started in the United Kingdom for the purpose of bringing joint-stock en terprize into operation in the gold fields of California. At first the promoters were treated with ridicule, and every effort was made to sneer down the undertaking, It required no ordinary nerve to bear up against the amount of direct vituperation, or, what was perhaps worse, the apathetic and cold-blooded indifference to which they were exposed. Distinct and positive charges were brought forward, and these were accom panied by " The whisper'd hint—the shrug—the hum or ha, Those petty brands that calumny doth use," Many openly declared that the concern was little better than a deliberate swindle, while the more cha ritably disposed considered it a mere visionary scheme, and opinion appeared to be divided as to whether the Director 3 should be cl.-.3ed among "the dupers" or " the duped." But there were men of unflinching determination engaged in the transaction. Having satisfied them aelws of the soundne ss and feasibi lity of the under taking, and having secu red the serv ices and co-ope ration of Sir HENRY VERB HUNTLEY, a gentle man ®f station and character, they resolved to go o n despite every impediment or obstruction. But a small proportion of the capital was subscribed for, and a still smaller proportion paid up—for the " eel:vine" fraternity, who are so virtuously indignant at any managerial lapse, have no hesitation in disre garding their own positive promi3es to pay on the shares for which they make application, unless an immediate profit can be realized. The Directors, however, made the most of the means at their disposal, and dispatched Sir HENRY in March, 1851, sending out also a steam.engi no and crushing mills. On his arrival, Sir HENRY found, that "great un ceirntianityg exiitei with reference to the tenure of m property, and th at the titles of the claimants n or possessors of quartz veins could not be relied on." If he attempted of a empted to enter Here was; a new difficulty. mine, e o x r er a t n i y on p s o o r- f andthe nelszoied into a treaty for the purchase lion of the auriferous soil, he mi g h t find, that not public on l y the mon si, e , y ou p i a l id b , o b w u a t „t a c l d l prospects of El the company opinion re sult which, in the then state of England, would have been fatal to the the undertaking. lie, therefore, exhibited a salutary caution, deciding rather to op2rate on the gold-bear ing quartz produced to him by others than to en.. deavour to obtain the material for himself. While awaiting the arrival of his machinery dis patched from England —which, being sent via Cap e Horn, was considerably delayed en route—he di rected hie attention to the selection of a favour able site on which to commence operations. He speedily entered into an arrangement with an American cotnpany in actual poss,assion of a mine, by 'which it -yas agreed that they Should , While Sir HENRY has thus been displaying the high qualities requisite for the judicious management of such an undertaking —acquiring for himself and the Company with which he is connected the respect and confidence of the inhabitants of the districts, the home Directors have not been idle. They have already dispatched, in May last, " an engine equal to fifty horse power, with crushing-mills and stamps of cor responding force, together with a waterwheel, pumps, and all suitable gear—the whole of the best work - manship, from the manufactory of Messrs. WEST and Sox, of St. Blazey. They have also contracted for some of " Beggs' patent quartz-crushing apparatus," an invention of the greatest importance, and which gives an almost unlimited power to its possessors. It has indeed already accomplished more than had ever previously been even thought of. Crushing the material to a fine powder, and thus enabling the operators to separate the precious metal from the quartz with comparatively trifling difficulty or labour. These will be ready within a fortnight, and when on the spot 150 tons per diem may be crushed—we cannot venture to state the amount of gold that may be obtained therefrom. We may, however, once more cordially congratulate all parties concerned on the auspicious prospect before them, and which promises to render the concern, notwithstanding its early trials and difficulties, one of the most re.nunerative ever brought under public notice. Ftiryland is gradually collecting together its mar yeli in the immediate vicinity of our vast and dingy metropolis. Within view of St. Paul's Cathedral— that is, upon a tolerably clear day when the gilded ball-and-cross can just twinkle through the smoke of London—there are now growing up a Garden and a Palace such as the world has seldom if ever seen the like of, except in the exquisite dreams of the imagina tion : a Palace like that of ALADDIN, and a Garden like that of the Hesperides. Fortunately, the inha bitants of this capital were enabled, in 1851, to wit ness the miracles of ingenuity which genius, aided by industry, was capable of calling forth upon a few of the green sods of Hyde Park—so that the remem brance of that extraordinary Exhibition relieves us from the fear that, in 1852, our allusions to what is being at this moment accomplished in the neighbour hood of Sydenham, may be derided as some empty and idle fanfaronade. The marvellous beauty of the Crystal Palace erected within a few weeks near Hyde Park Corner, is a sufficient guarantee that whatever may be seriously projected in regard to the scheme of its reconstruction, is at any rate within the limits of practicability; and that, however improbable may be the grandeur and diversity of the proposed achieve ment, they will inevitably, and that, moreover, within the prescribed period, be beheld in their fullest reali zation. We all of us believe this with the sense of a calm and implicit conviction. We believe it, because we remember what has already been achieved by Sir JOSEPH PAXTON, in that magic edifice where all the nations of the earth stored up for a while whatever Art could display of the Beautiful, or Science of the Marvellous. We believe it, because we call so very vividly to mind those wonderful perspectives of blue and yellow by which OWEN JONES eclipsed the most gorgeous corridors of the Alhambra! We believe it, because we have in recollection the mingled celerity and precision with which Sir CHARLES Fox caused to fall into their appointed places, as if in obedience to the wand of a magician, those thousands of girders, and millions of sashes, and miles of counter, and acres of glass, required in the building up of that fabric of iron and crystal. Assurances like these were needed, in order to convince us of the possibility of seeing at last effected what is spoken of as at this instant in the process of development in the midst of the sylvan glades and meadow scenery of Sydenham. The external embellishments alone, promise to render the vicinity of the New Crystal Palace more remarkable for beauty than possibly even the most lovely spot that can now be . found in Christendom. Immediately in front of the principal fa,cade of the edifice, we learn that there is to be constructed an Italian garden, extending over some forty acres, and having a breadth of one thousand six hundred and fifty feet, disposed in a series of terraces at once superb and picturesque. Upon this portion of the enterprizo alone, there is to be ex pended a sum of no less than 60,0001. sterling ! According to the plan sketched out by the master hand of Sir JosEril PAXTON, the grounds are to be ma pped out upon the same scale of proportions as that to be observed in the architectural arrangements. In illustration of this it, may be observed that every dimen sion will have a multiple of eight feet in the Garden as well as in the Palace, out of which will come har mony and grandeur in very exquisite combination The grandour may be conjectured from the circum stance of the principal approach and terrace being 96 feet wide, the majority of the others 48 feet, and none less than 24 feet. Again, the harmony may be ima gined from the intention kept in view throughout by Sir JOSEPH PAXTON, that of so arranging the external decorations that the ornate splendours of the Italian Garden shall gradually merge into the more homely and less artificial beauties of the English, and that these again shall almost imperceptibly glide off into the more moderately-cultivated charms of the sur rounding landscape. Intermingling with the thepar otefrfroeusnatnadins,which, it i w h shrubberi s es will be a gorgeous system astonishingly l o f ty jets at rod, s pose . s c e i 0 u s d h , a l a l n surpass the t glorious of the mythological groups spouting out their vast columns of water on 4 3 -dayq at Versailles. Were we not right, therefore, in our essertion that there is now collecting together, in the immediate neighbourhood of London, almost under the shadow of its smoke, and within the sound of its roaring com merce, a variety of works at once beautiful and extra ordinary, such as will, in a few months hence, trans form the woodlands of Sydenham into the semblance of Fa eryland ? And it is this region of enchentment which has roused the bile of Praise-God-Barebones, and excited the horror of Zeal-of-the-land-Busy, and called forth expressions of the sanctimonious indignation of otir dear old friends the Sabbatarians! Itwas the announce ment of the probable opening of the Crystal Palace on Sundays, which brought about the assemblage of some thousand individuals on Monday last, in the parochial school room of a Chapel of Ease in the Liverpool-road, a meeting presided over by the Re verend lll?ster-of-A Pts WiLsoN, the Vicar of Isling ton. According to the sentiments expressed by the majority of the speakers upon this occasion, we ought to look forward with dismay to the probable strolling upon some Sunday afterncon of a poor artizan, with his wife and cluster of little children, through the gardens of the Crystal Palace, at Sydenham, as to a foul rid most grievous desecration. Upon the same principle, there must surely always be upon the same days a sort of vegetable sin in the budding of a sweet-pea—a sort of insect culpa bility in the birth of a butterfly—a sort of zoological crime in the suckling of a lamb upon the meadows— a sort of infamy carried up into the skies in the war bling of a lark at daybreak—an evil in the spawning of a minnow, and an abomination in the very sparkle of a rivulet. If there be ill in the mere sight of such things on the LORD'S Day, surely there must—in common logic—be a threefold evil in the things themselves. What nonsense is this the Saints of the so-called Sabbath are preaching to us in open day, with grave faces, as though nothing less than idiotcy prevailed among the population ? People are not such dullards as to suppose, for en instant, that the awful and Holy LORD of the Universe can be dis pleased because the little creatures he has created in the palm of His hand like grains of dust, go out for a while from their reeking cities upon the appointed day of rest to breathe the fresh air, and to walk among the green trees—as the Sacred Book even tells us the GOD of Heaven himself was won't to do in the cool of evening in the garden of Paradise ! Away rather with that sqealor of the intellect and abjectness of the imagination, which are in themselves the most despicable of all possible desecrations of the Sunday —away rather with that grovelling bigotry and narrow-minded fanaticism, which would shut for ever the eyes of the over-toiled and the under-paid from that glorious scroll of Nature which the DIVINITY has lettered with flowers and written over with planets, and in which the very child can spell, with the most wonderful accuracy, the mystic truths of religion. It is not by shutting the labourer up con • tinually between the sordid walls of the conventicle that you can best instil into his heart the solemn and exquisite principles of Christianity. Let him obtain, at least at interve.ls, a glimpse of the beautiful uni verse in which he exists for a time but as an atom, and you will the most effectually expand his intelli• gence, purify his morality, and elevate his aspirations - - - - THE MEETING OF PARLIAMENT. —The following circular has been addressed by the Chancellor of the Ex chequer to such members of the House of Commons es are supposed to be friendly to the Administration : " Downing-street, 18th October, 1852.

He was in a light chair cart, and while passing by the Club-horse', as is supposA, on his way home to Croydon, he came in c sllision with something by the side of the road, and was pitshcd with great force on his head. Few persons seemed is have witnessed the C 2 currence, but Mr. Duncan, who is emnected with the University Club-house, immediately went t) his assistance, and finding him wholly insensible, accompanied him in a cab to Charing-cross Hospital, where Mr. Tucker, the house surgeon, and other medical officers of the institution, paid him every attention, but the base of the skull was so dreadfully fractured that his recovery wis hopeless, and ho died this mowing. A message was sent down by the express train to his friends at Croydon, but none had arrived in London when this was written. In formation has been sent to the coroner.

MANCHESTER, Oct. 26.—1 n this market, the impulse given to prices by the very extensive operations of last week has been felt to-day h the stiq upward tendency of yarns in general, and of many descriptions of goods. This is especially Ken in the finer yarns suit able for home manufacture, in cop twist and pin-cops of the medium numbers, and in 40's reeled mu!e. The de_ mend for China is insreasing the value of water twist; and it may be stated generally that warps, from 24's up wards, and el‘o reeled mule twist, are dearer. Goods e-e at lerst firm at last week's advance, which was so considerable on India goods in particel-r. The makers of domstics, T cloths, and long cloths, are getting rid of stock hardening in their terms, and in deed getting an advance with diminished trouble. The day's transactions fall a good deal short of those of this day week, as indeed they necessarily must, because the engagements then entered into tie up the hands of pro prietors. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—A fair business continues to he done in silk manufactured goods, and at more remunerating prices than have lately ruled. Stocks on hand continue very Egli'. Thrown Silks : The market is still influenced by foreign orders, the export of silk this year having been larger than pre viously known. The home market up to the present time has taken but sparingly ; but as stocks of throwns are understood to be very low in the hands of our manu facturers, a resumption of purchases is shortly expected to make preparation for the spring trade. Raw Silk: At the public sales held in Lyndon It - . 1 week a fair bu siness was transacted: the prices actually obtained, for both Bengals and Chinas, woro about those ruling pre- Niously to the sale. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY. •—• The market to•day has not I :en quite so gc)el as last week, perhaps on ac count of the roughness and wetness of the weather; still there have I :3n inquiries in the Cloth He l l for pilot cloths, end heavy 'oods generally, for overcoat cloths and trouserings. ' trade in the warehouses during the week has been flat. ROCHDALE. MONDAY.—We have had another good market to-day, but the manufactu rers coraple.n at the low prices they are obliged to take for their pieces. There has been a fair business doing in wool, at prices ' much the same as those of last week. Coarse or low priced wool is scarce at present.

RIETROPOLITAN FREE LIBIIARIES.--08 Monday a t, p r eliminary meeting of g entlemen connected with the great borough of Marylebone, was held a the house of M r . Oliveira, at the requisition of that gentleman, the obj ec t b e i ng the establishment of a free library in the b oroug h for the be• nefit of the working-classes, on a plan similar to those which have already been so successfully opened in Manchester and Liverpool. Several resolutions, moved and supported by Mr. A. A. Goldsmid, Mr. Grace, Mr. Withers, Mr. Bridge man, Mr. G. Gyll, Mr. Evelly, Mr. George, Mr. M‘Gregor, Mr. Graham, and other gentlemen, were adopted. Mr. Oliveira, in the course of the discussion, intimated that it was his intention to present the library with 500 volumes. It was &so stated that a halfpenny rate on the parishes within he borough of Marylebone would produce about 40001. a-year, but that it could not be legally levied._ provide the quartz at their own expense, running tunnels, sinking shafts, and other works necessary to ensure a sufficient supply of the material. While he undertook, for those whom he represented, to erect machinery, and to crush and amalgamate the quart,z ) all the gold thus obtained was to be equally divided. In order that this beneficial contract might be car ried out without any delay, Sir HENRY purchased an engine and machinery in California, which he imme diately dispatched to the locality, but another unex pected obstacle arose ; when the engine was erected it was found that something more was wanted to ren der it effective. Before these could be procured the rainy season had set in with unusual severity, render ing the roads impassable, so that it was not until the latter end of March that the machinery could be got into working condition. ' A daring enterprise, it must be admitted—that of surpassing those wonderful aquesous achievements. Daring though the project is, it may be at once per ceived from the programme that it is seriously about to be attempted. At either extremity of the building there will be erected an enormous tower 256 feet high, having each at the summit a capacious reser voir. These reservoirs will supply an abundance of water for the various fountains and cascades. At the commencement of the " display," starting from the Palace, the water will emerge from the arches of the highest terrace on the right and left of the grand central archway, tumbling through in a succession of cascades. Thence, as they descend, in place of glid ing away beneath, the currents will respectively leap sheer down, in a solid but transparent curve, over the lowest terrace—so that the visitors may pass under the glittering curtain as under that of a miniature Niagara. Subsequently, the two streams will tra verse the whole length of the principal approach, on either side dashing onwards in noisy rapids or cata racts ; and after replenishing a number of fountains, shaped like tazzas, will close their career in two enormous basins, each 380 feet in diameter, and each , having a pyramidal group of jets to the number of 800, the largest jet in the cluster throwing up water to the enormous height of 230 feet perpendicular. Scattered round these will be "dancing fountains," soaring to the height of 130 feet ; and beyond these sixteen others shooting up water 90 feet into the air. Well may the official prospectus of the prepara tions observe that " there is nothing of the kind at all approaching in magnificence the display of waterworks contemplated by the plans at this point." The grand eaux at Versailles, marvellous as they are, and unri valled as they have been hitherto justly considered, will scarcely regard as unworthy of comparison the pyramidal fountains and the subordinate jets and cas cades at Sydenham, for the supply of which 2,000 gallons per second will require to be put in requisi tion 1 Besides the fountains already enumerated, there will be one of very considerable dimensions, into the vast basin of which water will flow round the edges in an enormous bell-shape—eight or nine others being distributed over the terraced gardens, sparkling among beds of the most brilliant-coloured flowers,—flowers, the profusion of which may be estimated from the single item, among similar orders recently issued, for 50,000 roots of the scarlet geranium ! Scattered among these fountains, and flowers, and cascades, and ter races, will be strange specimens of the monsters of geology, contrasted with statues carved out of the white marble of Carrara. Remembering all this, were we extravagant in talking about the garden of the Hesperides ? As to the Palace itself—the Palace we have hinted at as not less marvellous than that of ALADDIN-it promises to abound, like the gardens outside, with fountains and statuary, but still more with colossal sculpture and elaborate specimens of architecture. Conspicuous among the more celebrated curiosities enshrined under the crystal roof, it is to be hoped, may ultimately be numbered one no ,less renowned than CLEOPATRA'S Needle. A winter garden, comprising all kinds of rare exotics, will, of course, as at first in tended, be of all the most prominent, as well as the most delightful, of the many attractions. Foreign birds, of a plumage as brilliant even as the foreign vegetation, will be added to the splendours of the collection. Hardwares and textile fabrics, minerals and precious stones, will be displayed in profusion, with the most beautiful productions of Art, the most astonishing achievements of Science, and the most extraordinary products of Industry. Such are among a few of the internal embellishments of the second Pa lace of ALADDIN, in the modern garden of the Hespe rides. NEWMARKET RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

Subscription Plate of 50/, By this time, however, a great change had taken place in this country. Public opinion had set in in favour of the company. Capital to almost any ex tent was available ; and those who had formerly scoff3d or hung back while any doubt existed as to its ultimate success, endeavoured to obtain a share in that which they bad once industriously de preciated. It was on the arrival of Mr. DAVIEF, an intelligent and experienced person, accom panied by a well selected body of practical miners—that 5 7 ... HENRY learned the improved posi tion of the Company which he represented—and that he was, therefore, in a position to carry out his operations on a scale of much greater magnitude, and that there was machinery in progress of very superior power. The mining property, too, had been placed upon a more satisfactory basis during the interval. A good and safe title could be obtained, while the Com pany with which he had entered into the provisional agreement were not exhibiting the zeal or activity he had anticipated, nor could he venture to place im plicit reliance on their professions. He, therefore, decided on independent action, and was speedily enabled to acquire possession of " the Dicksburg Mine," a property offering extraordinary advantages, there being a water-mill erected thereon, the lcdes exhibiting an apparently inexhaustible mass of auri ferous quartz, which on every trial yielded highly satisfactory results ; and also an ample supply of water power, with good sites for other mills, and en abundance of timber on the apt for all necessary erections. Seattle 1 Jack the Giant Killer 2 He entered on this property in July, and the re sult of his experience since that period has been of the most pleasing description. The tests already applied have been so highly satisfactory, that he de term fined to work without any further delay. The engine and machinery dispatched last year have been forwarded to the mine, and steps taken for its erection, and it is in all human probability ere this, in profitable operation, —nay, more, it is by no means unlikely that some of its produce is already on its way to this country. In addition to the Dicksburg Mine, Sir HENRY hrs also taken a lesse of the Carolina Mine situated near Placerville, on the Sacramento river, on very advantageous terms, which is also in operation at present. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1852 . MONEY AND COMiIERCIAL NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocx. The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 15,000 bales, of which 4,000 American and 500 Egyptian were taken on speculation. The market closed with an upward tendency, American and Surat were per lb. dearer. The sales com prised 10,000 American, 1,000 Pernem and Maranham at bid to 73-d , 1,500 Bahia at 6: 7 1d to 7d ; and 1,200 Egyptian at qd to 90 per lb. Railway shares were firmer. The steamer Atlantic, from the United States, brings 382,000 dole. An arrival of 200,000 dollars from California had taken place at New York. Cot ton was firm, and foreign exchange was in demand. At the East India House special meeting of pro prietors to-day, the following resolution was carried, with one dissentient only :—" That the Court concur in the unanimous resolution of the Court of Directors, that, as a testimonial of gratitude with which the East India Company must ever remember that the glorious career of the Duke of Wellington com menced in India, and that the consolidation of the British power there was grea tl y p romo ted by his brilliant achievements, a marble statue of that illus trious Commander be placed in the General Court Room." This is a course well befitting a great body deriv ing its wealth from commerce, and yet indebt'd for most of its grandeur to the political and military career of its governors and commanders-in-chief. The amount of bullion on is eard the Lima and Ganges arrived yesterday was about 208,00C1. The Turkish Loan business does not improve upon further acquaintance. On the part of the contractors at Paris we have a very proper hint that it would be unwise to send to Constantinople for the firman, as this has never apparently been produced, because the onus rests with the Ambassador, Prince Kallimachl, who was alleged to have ample powers, special and general. That the contractors did not require a copy of the firman ere they undertook to raise the loan, is we think, to b 3 regretted; but we must not judge after the fact, and it is possible no one would have originally thought of being more cautious. An Ambassador is a high personage supposed to pos sess to the fullest extent the confidence of his Govern ment, both as a man of honour end ability; and to have doubted his instructions would have been per haps uncomplimentary. There is a delicate mode, however, of managing pecuniary as well es diplomatic negociations, and with proper tact the official copy of the firman might have been asked rather as a basis of operations than Ps a necessary confirmation of the Prince's authority. We:are now assured, in a letter from Messrs. Devaux, of Paris, that the Prince had both special and general authority, and awkward as it may be, the ex-ambassador will be constrained, if the loan is not ratified, to give to the world the fullest possible explanations. Even the disclosure of State secrets, if any such exists, would be justificatory, under the circumstances, but that we must remember the natural desire the Prince may have to return to his own country, and the risk he incurs if he op poses too strongly the powers that be. Lord Stratford, or, in his unlucky absence, Colonel Rose, may properly be called upon to inter fere in protection of the subscribers to this loan, because its non-ratification is apparently grounded upon diplomatic considerations, and the loan was brought forward by the Ambassador of Turkey. In another sense, however, we can only act a secondary part to the French, the contract being taken in their metropolis. The Turkish Consul-General in London requests a suspnsion of judgment in the affair until the explanations of the Turkish Government are given, but however desirable it may be to have these, and however exculpatory they may prove, the most important point cannot in the least be altered by it, viz, the obligation of Turkey to indemnify the sub scribers to the loan, and punish its own officials, if culpable, hereafter. The English Stock market has been very quiet again, and there is no change in prices. Consols have been 100 k to for transfer, and 1001 to for account. The New 31 per Cents. are 1031 to 1; the premium upo❑ Exchequer Bills is firm at 78s premium; East India Stock is worth 274+. Foreign Stocks are dull. The Turkish Loan has been done at 4, and is now only 24 to 31 premium. The Swedish Loan is 1 j to 2 discount. Spanish New Deferred have been at 2511. Mexican Stock is worth 241 to 4, being heavy still. Buenos Ayres are well supported at 80. Dutch 4 per Cents. are 9GI. The Railway Share Market has been unsteady. South• Western have been higher, and also Great Northern, Midland, and Norfolk ; South-Eastern are flatter. The failure of a jobber, a comparatively new member, hcs influenced prices. French Shares, with one or two exceptions, are at full prices. Gold Mine Shares are very quiet, but firm. vb trb ambition . NEWMARKET RACES (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

Dispatches were received yesterday at the Colonial Office, from the Governors of New Zealand and the Australian Colonies. Dispatches were sent off last evening from the Colorist Office for the Governor of Gibraltar. THE LATE DUKE OF WELLINGTON AND THE EAST INDIA COMPANY.-(T.HIS DAY.) Toil morning a special general meeting of the pro pt:etors was held at the India House, for the purpose of laying before the proprietary the following resolution: " That as a testimonial of the gratitude with which the East India Company must ever remember that the glorious career of the Doke of Wellington commenced in India, and that the consolidation of the British power there was greatly promoted by his brilliant achievements, a marble statue of that illustrious Com mander be placed in the general court room. Sir James Weir Hogg, Bare, M.P., Chairman of the Board of Directors, presided, and the meetirig Wes largely attended by directors end proprietors. The Chairman moved the resolution. Mayor 011ivant seconded the resolutior Mr. Liwin, although he did not object to a statue, would move en amendment, as he did not think the company ought to avail itself of tho funds of others to honour to itself.
