Thel _ ll . n Pl e 3 r ~____, add the British and we m E a mitt' on many great public questions of international law, their friendly relations, power, have preserved the l‘eerld more than thirty years, and why, theiet,re, s any French senator, however high his name and peaceanodf th t ei world for autho rity, impute to England motives which have been contra dicted by her whole policy during that long paiod ? We, however, are not inclined to blame M. BERRYER entirely. 'Are believe he has been insidiously urged to the step by the bitterest enemy of England— ime who, while he professes to be strongly attuch ,- 1 to the English alliance, and who was received as a friend in this country, thinks and dreams of nothing else but a war between France and England, and the realisation of those ambitious schemes of BONAPARTE which led to his destruction, and which this vain man believes he is yet destined to accomplish. His object in this measure is obvious. It would be a great point gained if be could rouse the passions of the people against M. GUIZOT and the English—if he could show that the islanders are still the despots of the seas, and that it is the duty of every patriotic Frenchman to join America or Russia, or any maritime power, to curb or subdue a nation which he regards as an eternal enemy of his country. His object is to work upon the worst passions of human nature, in order to lead to a war with England when she is engaged in a contest with America. But, like the ge neral policy of this statesman, such a mode of bene fiting France (if, indeed, any benefit could be derived from it), is in the highest degree contemptible and hu miliating, for he in fact admits what the English do not, the inferiority of his country, and her inability to contend single-handed against England. France is not a third-rate or a second-rate power. She is one of the first powers in the world, and we know only one ably to enter into contest with her. Why, therefore should she degrade herself into a condition in which she virtually admits that she cannot fight alone ? But this restless and mischievous personage has no national pride or real patriotism. He forgets that America insulted France with impunity, by insisting on compensation for losses said to have been sustained by the American merchants through the Ber in and MUan decrees. America demanded one mil ion sterling as the amende honourable. The Chamber of Deputies rejected the demand, but M. TRIERS, and other patriots of the same stamp, interfered. The Chamber humbled itself, yielded and voted this large sum, which they did not consider due, and to which, in fact, the Americans had no just claim. And what apology can this fighting statesman make for the result of the Syrian affair ? He brought France to the brink of war, and then miserably gave up the contest. Will gallant Frenchmen trust to such a leader ? will they follow his advice in forming an alliance with a people that have grievously instuted France, and attack their near st neighbours—their best customers— and break up a connexion which every day is bee , ming more profitable to France, and which will be still further improved by the l►beral tariff of Sir ROBERT PEEL ? We may, however, leave the derenae of his policy to M. GUIZOT. He can protect himself; and the only regret is that any state ments or arguments he may advance will not counter balance the mischievous effects produced on the people of both countries by the speeches of such orators as M )I. TRIERS, MA.UGUIN, BILLAULT, BF.RRYER, arid l)E LAMARTINE. The amendment prop ,sed by M. MAUGUIN requires no notice, for every person must concur in his sentiments, but still it is a peg on which to hang a hostile declaration.

Orders received by all 41:ews-agents, and at The Sun Office, 112, Stand. the one teeming with the most rancorous malice, and the molt der, i:inina,tf vulgarity; the u:her a calm, argu mcntatile, dispaionate, and gentlemanly production. From these two letters we may indeed estimate the relative position of the question now at issue : the stubborn though chap-fallen rage of the protectionists, with the quiet and candid self-confidence of their opponents. An advertisement appears in another column of a new life-boat, the invention of a vaman, named WIL LIAM WILLTAms, who gives it the name of the " English Catamaran Raft." It is composed of sheet iron, capa• ble of lying within four points of the wind and withstand ing all weathers, cannot by any accident capsize, can be managed by four men, and can be made to save at each trip 100 souls without risk. It can be taken to pieces for stowage, and can be put together by any ship carpenter in thirty minutes. The inventor is anxious to raise a subscription for building a working model, and we feel confident that in so truly national a cause funds will not long be wanting. We have received Madrid journals cif the 23d ult., which contain a glowing description of the grand ball given by General NARVAEZ to her MAJESTY and a select party on the evening of the 22d. The QUEEN, with her sister and mother, arrived at eleven o'clock, when the concert commenced. All the fashionable society of Madrid was present. Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA took his place re-ar his royal relatives. After the concert the QUEEN opened the ball with the Duke of VALENCIA (NARvAEz), and the INFANTA, the QUEEN'S sister, with the French Ambassador. At three o'clock their MAJESTIES with drew. Several Senators and Deputies of the Opposition party were present. _ In the Chamber of Deputies Senor MON entered into a long statement respecting his financial policy, and no one could deny that he had performed wonders, of which this extract from his speech gives a brief out hue : "The Ministry of which I am a member have triumphed , for they have extricated the country from a real chaos. For anarchy they have substituted order and morality. Has not our financial position been improved since 1844, when we took office? At that period the treasury was empty ; every department of the public service was suffering, and a bankruptcy was imminent, Nobody would lend money to the Government. To obtain 7,000,000 f. it was compelled to give 12,000,000 f.; the tobacco revenue had been farmed out for ten years, and the proceeds of two months had been beforehand consumed ; no hope remained ; the active employees had received but two months' salary out of five, and the passive classes one month only. In this year, on the contrary, a contract had been entered into with a highly respectable public establishment, and I ask whether this contract affords the said employees suffi cient guarantees for payment in this year ? [M. Llorente cried " Rio!"] You may deny it (continued M. Mon), but the Deputies of Spain and all Europe have been astonished at such a treaty having been concluded with the San-Fernando bank. Itwas imagined that the Govern ment never would attain the object it has accomplised. The utmost confusion prevailed in the public service, and they who negotiated with the Government required a discount in proportion to the difficulties they dreaded in the collection of the revenue. Is this morality in the Administration ? Have those who, in two years, have made such confusion disap pear, done nothing ? Two years are a brief period in finan cial matters, especially when a Government is harassed by the press and by conspiracies. Yet, the army has been paid, and the navy improved. Under Charles 111. it was not as s! rung as it now is. Yes, gentlemen, the liavy is now better paid than it was under Charles 111. It may be alleged that some injustice and vexations have taken place in the collec tion of the revenue ; these details are of a secondary impor tance, and a Government which was to bestow its attention on questions of the utmost moment cannot always watch the details of its operations." The 23d being the feast of St. Ildefonso, the Stock xchange remained closed. TLe report of Sir R. PEEL'S speech in the House of Commons on Tuesday evening was iweived in Paris on Thursday, and created a great sensation. Every per son who turned his attention to the changes expressed wonder at their magnitude and extent. The good people of Paris could hardly credit the news, and the only draw hack on the joyful intelligence was a doubt whether the Minister wool - 1 be able to carry his corn prehi naive and liberal scheme through Parliament. The Chamber of Deputies for two days had been occu pied in discussing the proposed alterations in the con stitution of the University. M. SALVANDY, the Minister of Public Instruction, made a long speech in defence of the new regulations, and was opposed by M. TRIERS, but their arguments possess no interest fir the English reader. Another notice of motion had been given by an Oppo sition Member relative to the relations between England and France. M. BERRYER, as has been stated, has a motion oa the naval affairs and maritime rights of France, which will call forth many speeches, and M. MA.UGUIN has also given notice of his intention to move an amendment on the fifth paragraph of the Address, to the following effect :—" We hope that the union and good intelligence of your Government with that of her Britannic MAJEsTY, will contribute, without hurting our national interests, to insure the benefits of humanity." IBRAHIM Paula was expected to visit Pari_, soon, and the Marquis DE LAVALETTE had left that city for Vernet, to accompany his Highness on the journey. A letter from Alexandria of the Bth inst. says:—" The brilliant re ception given to Isaaum PACUA in Europe appears to have inspired the Viceroy with the desire to take a trip there; previously, however, he is to visit Upper Egypt." Accounts from Lucerne state that MULLER, charged with the murder of M. LEU, had been tried at that place on the 24th. This man, it will be remembered, had tried to escape punishment, by accusing Dr. PEFFER, but failed. The trial lasted only four hours and a half, and the prisoner was found guilty and condemned to death. His counsel attributed the crime to religious fanaticism. The prisoner himself said, that having been incarcerated far rebellion, and his application to be in- A double excitement seems to have seized upon Mr. Bus FEILD FERRAND, goading him on to the most outrageous demonstrations of his incapacity to for ward the interests of a principle soirreparably lost as that of monopoly ; the excitement consequent upon the forlornness of his posi tion ; the excitement resulting from his invariable and snd long-continued discomfiture. Allowing, therefore, for the impulses of such frequent rebuffs upon a disposi tion so acknowledgedly irritable as that of the lion. Member for Knaresborough, we may possibly in some measure excuse a portion of his violence and a moiety of his absurdity. It, would, however, require an acu men absolutely superhuman to discover any wholesale nst ans of palliation for the full extent of his extravagant and unstinted license of tongue ; nor could we readily produce a reasonable explanation of the precise rule of consistency upon which his proceedings have been re gulated. For example, a more thorough forgetfulness of the requisites which should be expected in the repre sentative of a constituency, but especially at this re markable epoch in our commercial legislation, could not, by any chance, have been evidenced than in the cireum stance of dragging forward Mr. GEORGE LANE Fox as a candidate for the important seat of the West Riding of Yorkshire--that gentleman being perfectly incompetent to undertake the arduous duties of a Parliamentary ses sion, from the unfortunate debility with which his con stitution is afflicted. This oversight, or, probably, this vo , untary reckle sness on the part of Mr. FERRAND requires no &anomie commentaries to excite the opposition—a e had almost exclaimed the indignation—of all those sticklers for activity and enterprise in a Member of the Lower House, that mast undoubtedly abound in the loca lity. A proposition so manifestly unwise as that of nomi nating Mr. Fox, is clearly an insult to every enfranchised party in the West Riding ; and, in originating this pro position, Mr. Fk:RRAND has shown his inherent contempt for anything but the advantage of a class. He would sacrifice the just interference of a populous and en lightened district with the mere intention of bolstering up a cause which is both shallow and morally villainous; he would hazard the reinstallment of the monopolists, by tampering with the afflictions of humanity ; he would stake the last remnant of his reputation upon the issue of a hopeless struggle. To imagine that the represen tative of Knaresborough has hitherto escaped from his political contests scatheless and uninjured, would be OHO among the wildest stretches of fancy ; the fumes and the smoke of his own prodigious subterfuges have tarnished his very name, and the marks of those battles are indelible. All these circumstances appear to be aidthoroughlyin impressed upon the mind of Mr. FgallAND ; all likelihood it is the conviction of their truth which urges him on in his present mad and un reasonable career. The hull of his Parliamentary fame is just barely distinguishable, darkened and shattered from the conflict in which it has repeatedly engaged, and as repeatedly fared the worst ; the sullen waters of popular displeasure are gradually sucking that black hull into their bosom, and surging upon it from all quarters ; yet does Mr. BUISFEILD FERRAND still defy the advance of public opinion and public indigna tion, abd, by his recent proceedings at Leeds, clambers up, as it were, to the mast-head, and there nails up the last rag of his reputation, as though in very defiance. His provincial eloquence ap pears to concentrate itself upon one intolerable effert, namely, the dissemination of discontent and ill-will among the labouring classes. He addresses himself ex clusively to artisans ; he tells them they are the most tyrranised and degraded body of human creatures in the empire ; he. covers ,th e i r employers with every epithet of ignominy and abhorrence ; and endeavours, by every possible effort of his tongue, by his insinuations, and by flsgrant mis - statements, by his unwieldymeekness' and by his unflinching audacity, to rouse among the in dustrious classes a feeling of hatred and animosity against the manufacturers, from whom they receive their wages and their " daily bread." her this miserable and vile attempt the Member for Knaresborough i s culpable indeed, and hence he would deserve our most absolute reprobation, but fur the perftpt impotence with which the attempt is accompanied. The gentlemen who potter ,over their protection crucibles in the grand laboratory of New Bond-street had better bestir them selves in the election for the West Riding, if they wish any success to attend their party in that quarter ; they must oust Mr. BUSFEILD FERRAND and mount the rostrum themselves, if they wish an agricultural candi terrogated being refused. he had conceived a profound resentment against M. LEU, and could not subdue ti.e desire for vengeance. The following summary of dispatches received from Algiers appears in some of the Paris papers of Thurs day.— " The Minister of War yesterday received a report from Lieut.-General de Bar, dated Algiers, the 20th, and a report from Marshal Bugeaud, dated from the Oued Riou, the 10th. General de Bar announces the receipt of a telegraphic dis patch from Milianah, dated the 12th, stating that Marshal Bugeaud would arrive about the 23d. between Tekeria and Kef el Sefa, to the south of Teniet el Haad, and informs the Minister that he has received letters from General Bedeau, dated the 17th, when he vas at Medeah, with the troops of General d'Arbouville, who were reposing, and in readiness to proceed to any point that might become necessary. Marshal Bugeaud's report contains very little that is not already known. He speaks of several fruitless marches, in the hope of coming np with A'd-el-Kader, who, in finding the tribe: of the countries of the Beni Measlems ill disposed to assist him, and General Lamoriciere near at hand, abandoned his projects on the Lower Mina, and on the 4th arrived in the Upper Mina, where he carried ofi the douara of the Agha of the tribe of the Sdamas, a tribe which had just submitted to the French. The Emir, says Marshal Bugeaud, had accomplished fifty leagues in two days and a night, with horses which were supposed to be exhausted with fatigue. At the date of the last accounts, Abd-el-Kader was two days distant from the Tell, to whicl. General Lamoriciere did not intend to follow him, as it is a country in which no supplies can be obtained for cavalry. In conclusion Marshal Bugeaud says :—" Things have much improved, and we may now say, without being too bold. I hat Abd-el-Kader has failed in the great enterprise that he had been long meditating. He reckoned on carrying insur rection and war to the gates of 'Algiers, aid could only reach the south of the Ouarensenis. When he made his appear ance, the revolted tribes had all received some rude blow,. Their zeal was cooled, and not seeing arrive the armies of emigrants and Morocco men who had been promised, they soon despaired of success. There is little zeal in the camp of the ex-Entir. The tribes at first supplied him with pro. visions and forage ; some of the most ardent even joined him, but soon the masses kept away, and he was compelled to look for food for his men and horses in the Silos. I think he will return much discouraged, and that the tribes are not less so."

The market ras very quiet. The Share Market was firmer, and there was an improvement in some of the registered shares. The It.ssende le, arrived front Sydney, brings accounts of September 20. Trade was in a sounder state, and moderately active. Labour was becoming scarce again, and the propriety of obtaining a re-inforcement from Van Dieman's Land had been mooted, and was supported in one or two districts. The points most notable in the weekly Bank of England return to the 24th inst., are those which denote the peculiar action of the railway deposit question, and they are as follows : Notes Is,ued Decrease Public Deposits Decrease Other Deposits Increase . .....

The CHAIRMAN said that the secretary might be said to have resigned. Mr. COURTEINAY said that if it should appear that the gentlemen through whose lands the line was to pass had taken any shares, it would be all right; but if they had not, he recommended all the shareholders to pause before they spent any more money. He had asked a question with the viaw of ascertaining that fact. The CHAIRMAN said he had answered it as well as he could.—(Shame, shame.) Mr. Busu said that he knew that several of the pro moters had taken shares. A great many merchants and bankers in the districts through which the line was to pass had taken shares to the number o( t 1300 altogether, and had paid the second calls. Mr. COURTENAY said they had a right to more de tailed information than a general assertion could convey. Me knew from experience that the names of gentlemen were often inserted in railway prospectuses without their consent. First and foremost on the prospectus of this railway was the name of Sir John Conroy. He had written to Sir J. Conroy to ask whether his name was down with his consent, but he had received no answer. —(Shame, shame.) The second question he would ask was, whether the promoters were the holders of original shares, and whether Sir John's name was inserted with I his consent ? _ _ _ The CHAIRMAN said that he was in possession of the written consent of every gentleman whose name was down. Mr. COURTENAY said he was sorry that they were afraid to aver their consent. _ The CHAIRMAN said that they would not aver it to Mr. Courtenay. A SHAREHOLDER - asked if Mr. Courtenay ever ex pected an answer ? Mr. COURTENAY said that be certainly did. Sir John Conroy should not lend his name to this public w. , rk, if he would not stand by and avouch it. How many shares did Sir John Conroy hold ? The CHAIR3IAN said he could not say.—(Hisses and groans, and a cry for the books and deeds.) Mr. COURTENAY asked to be informed of the names of the Provisional Management, the dates of their appoint ment, the number cif their shares, and the time when they made their payments and signed the original deeds? —(Bravo, bravo ; we'll have no shuffling.) The CHAIRMAN said Mr. Courtenay could look at the deed when he liked.—(A cry of " Send for it.") Mr. COURTENAY, after a few other questions, pro posed as a resolution, " That a .Committee of share holders be appointed as a Sub-committee to inspect the books, to examine all the accounts of the Company, and that they should be allowed vouchers and the attendance of clerks, in order to make a report as to the prospect of the affairs of the Company." He felt assured that the shareholders would help him in carrying out this measure.—(Bravo, bravo.) Mr. JUSTIN seconded the resolution, and said that the directors were not their masters but their servants — they had no control over the shareholders. He, for one, had felt that the time was come when this Company ought to be dissolved.—(lmmense and continued cheer ing.) L was nonsense to ask them to continue a line at an expense of 40,000/. per mile—(Cries of shame) --when even if their . statement of traffic were true, a single line could not accommodate it. One of the directors entered into an explanation of his own motives in joining the Company. His statement was loudly cheered. Some one in the gallery proceeded to read a letter as to the mode in which the money of the shareholders was disposed of. After it had been read it was handed to the chairman, who insisted that it was necessary that a copy of it should be taken before it was returned, as it was slanderous. (The meeting expressed great dis approbation at this announcement.) Mr. COURTENAY said that he thought the course adopted by the chairman was the correct one, and if the writer had said that which was not true, he, fur one, would be glad to see him punished. A good deal of confusion and recrimination pro and con. here followed. As soon as order was restored by the exertions of the chairman, aided by a few of the shareholders. A SHAREHOLDER, after reviewing the state of accounts, said that it appeared to him opposed to all justice and common sense, that one-third, or six•eighths out of their 201. deposit should be expended without their being further advanced than they were. The CHAIRMAN said that his colleagues and himself had felt that for their own sake, an investigation was re quired, and if auditors were not chosen by the share holders, they should have felt it their duty to elect them themselv.•s. The resolution proposed by Mr. Courtenay was then put to the meeting and carried. Mr. COURTENAY proposed the names of a number of gentlemen as a committee of investigation, which having been agreed to, the meeting (one of the noisiest we have ever seen) then brok- up. SHREWSBURY and BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPANY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sia,—We have by many parties had our attention called to a report it your paper of a meeting of th,, shareholders, in Manchester, of the Dudley and Meekly . ) . Company, in which the Secretary of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company is represented to have made various statements without a correct knoa ledge of the facts to which he was speaking. We should be wanting in our duty to the shareholders in the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Stafford shire Junction Company, whom we represent, did we not endeavour to prevent the public being misled by that want of information on his part.. . . He, in the first place, is reported to have stated that the line pr.,posed and introduced into the House of Commons last year, and lost on standing orders, was only e branch of the Grand Junction Company when that rail way was propised by the Grand Junction Company. The offer they made to the inhabitants of Shrewsbar) was, that they might take the whole of the sharp s tor raising the required capital, and that the Grand Junc tion Ccmpany would take a lease of the hne, gnat ante.-- . ing 4 per cent. on the outlay, with an equal division of the profit afterwards, or thtit trey might t.,lte what pro portion of such shares they might think fit, the remain der to be offered to the public generally, and if not by them taken, they, the Grand Junction Company, as a Company, retain them. Such arrangement vta , acted upon, an-I more than half the snares were taken its Shrewsbury, and by the public generally ; the remainder were taken by the Grand Junction Company. In the latter part of last year it was pro posed to the Grand Junction Company that the Shrewsbury Company should be remodelled, and that Company, with the greatest liberality, placed in the hands of the committee the whole of the shares retained by them in the former Company, and which shares were distributed with scrupulous care to parties locally in terested in the line (now caled the Shrewsbury, Wolver• hampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Company), not one being given to the Oxford, Worcester, and W olver hampton Railway Company, to the South Staffordshire Junction Company, or to the Grand Junction Company, as stated by the secretary of the Shrewsbury and Bir mingham Railway Company. It is also necessary for us to state that the three Companies named, its holding so large a portion of the capital of the Shrewsbury, Wolver hampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Company are in no other way connected with it than by running into the same station at Wolverhampton, which station is to be erected at the joint expense of the four Companies. We also avail ourselves of this opportunity of contra. dicting another statement—viz., that the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company had t h e support of th):, London and Birmingham Railway Company. We can confidently say that such is not the case, either directly or indirectly.—Your obedient servants, CHARLES CORSE R, JAMES WHITNEY, Secretaries to• the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Company. 38, Parliament -street, Jan. 30. --___—_— • --, lOp •?5 , ~ - 4 >i —z-- -, -,,y/ :' . ~,., ,, ,, • .4i . , r.> ,, ‘; dcel , „,,,, 4 Y . g .- 4 p.-J!. .- • =='• 1 z,..: 4 ' 70 1 .' • ntfilatinlt LONDON, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1846.

MEETING OF PItOi ) RIETOR S. An adjourned special m..eting of the proprietors of this Company was held atth.: Hanoi Commerce, Thread needle-street, on Saturday, pursuant to a resolution to that effoct agreed to at N I last meeting. The CHAIRMAN (P. g u t,er, E-q., M.P.) said, that as a quorum was present he, as Chairman, would call 01, the Secretary to real the notice convening the meeting, as well as the original mot' n, and the resolution read at the last meeting, to the effAit that the meeting having heard the statement of the Chairman, made at that meet ing, with respect to the various plans and extensions, do approve a the same, and authorise their direct - 4.s to take the necessary - steps to c arry the sa me i nto e ff ect in the ensuing session of Parliament, to abandon any such scheme in case it should hereafter appear expedient to do so. It also proposed to empower the directors to oppose any railway which they might consider would compete with, o r b e i n opposition to, their line. The SECRETARY having read them, The CriataaN sajd th a t t h e iw meeting which had taken place so recently, the discussion which ensued there, tt• well as the terms of the resolution just read, and which would be submitted to them for their ap proval, rendered it unnecessary for him to occupy their time by any observations, He would merely state in general terms that all that was asked from the share holders was to authorise them (the director.) to pro. peed with their arrangements with the Carlow and Kil kenny line, on terms which they would submit to another meeting, co nvene d f or th e 'purpose. They also asked for general powers; and he did think that it was not presumptuous in him, as the Chairman of the Board, to say that there was a perfect confidence that the.: would exercise their powers beneficially for the interests of the Company. If they should have to take any steps against those who were opon-::. to them, a meeting of the shareholders Iv( (Hear, heaes) Nothing be called for that purpose.— remained for him to add, but it would be for the interest of the Water ford and Kilkenny Company to let the re solution pass. He was sorry that the meeting was not larger, but that seemed to indi cate confidence in the directors. Any question that should be put would be satisfactorily answered by the Serretary and other officers of the Company present. Mr. TITE said it was incumbent on him to take some part in the discussion there that day, in consequence of vTliat had fallen from him at their last meeting.

A public meeting of the original shareholders of this Company, to hear the report and a statement of the accounts from the provisional committee, was held at the London Tavern on Saturday last. Mr. John Carter, by request of the meeting, took the chair, and called on the solicitor of the Company to read the report. From the statement laid before the meeting, it ap peared that the amount at the debit of the cash account, arising from deposits of 1/. 10s. per share and interest, was 8,8781. 9s. 11d. The disbursements made were for p-tty cash, 1,280/. 7s. Bd.; for legal expenses, 758/. lbs. 2d. ; for engineering and parliamentary expenses, 2,3751 7s. 6d., and for salaries 409/. 10A. ; leaving a balance on ha 4,0651. 6s. 7d. The report stated that the object of the Company was to lay down a line of railway from Waterloo-bridge to Greenwich, by Kennington, Cam berwell, and Peckham. a distance almost of five miles. through a district which t; , , as almost a dead level, and where ground was not valuable ; that the Company had started with fair hopes of success, anticipating always amalgamation with some of the lines south of the Thames, and with this view had kept their arrangements open, but hitherto without success, although one of the ex isting Companies had been approached, and they were still on terms with others ; that the provisional antnit tee recommend amalgamation with some other existing lines, or remaining till the return of another session of Par Lament ; or breaking up at once and dividing the fund,. After the conclusion of the report, sevoral proprietors found fault with the large outlay stated, viewed in refer ence to the amount of deposits, which soma thought was not prudently provided against by allotting so small a number of shares. Mr. KEMP then moved that the report be received, and that the Company should continue till the result o the negotiations with the existing hies, and the repor of Sir Robert Peel's committee should be known. It was moved as an amendment by Mr. LAFORREST, and seconded by Mr. ANGELO SOLARI, that the Company be di:solved. The amendment having been put by the chairman, was carried by 15 against 3. The meeting thfn broke up. GREAT NORTH AND SOUTH WALES AND WORCESTER RAILWAY. A public meeting of the shareholders (called by the directors) in the above line, was held on Saturday, at. the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street. In consequence of the determined opposition off-red by the seripholders to the further call of 11., made by the managing cuirmittee, and the publicity given to that opposition through the medium of the public prints, a vast number of the shareholders and others interesteo assembled, but, owing to the confined space, they after wards, after considerable altercation, adjourned to the largest room. After considerable confusion, during which mltions without number (some of them for an adjournment to another day) were made, anti allowed to fall to the ground, Mr. John Francis Bacon was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN said, that before reading the report he thought it necessary to say a few words to the meet ing. The managing committee had been subjected to some odium because they had not, before that period, called a meeting of the shareholders. They had in tended to have done so in December last, but the en gineer's rcport bad nut been made out, the traffic r•tulas had not been received, and no intimation of the Government's iivent. ni with respect to rail ways had been given to the country. They had had these now, and this wets use first opportunity of calling the shareholdtrs together. He should now, with the leave of the meeting, read Vie report prepared by the directors. The CHAIRMAN then read the report, of which the following is an abstract:—The Company was formed in May and June, 1845, after considerable trouble and ex pense to the promoters. The maximum of capital was to be 2,000,0001. in 100,000 shares of 201. etch. Soon after the committee had extensively issued their pro spectuses, the House of Commons ordered that all new lines should deposit 10 per cent. instead of 5, as for merly. The House of Lirds, also, ordered that a depo sit of 10 per cent. should be demanded from all railways. The engineer's report being favourable, it was deemed advisable to prepare plans and sections for Parliament. They did deposit these plans and sections ; they had upwards of .5,800 letters of application, which had been filly investigated. They subsequently determined to reduce the 100,000 shares to 75,000, and, after int r eh e coc t ou a 7 i gs n he- - a i t n l. g etA a 6sthBe p :d r :rl ( 4to i e p osti o ohth r hne t ae i for ed o hp n aohudfabdtl hi at cedtfi6hermBeps, deposits t 1 membersbssehrpsaarioed shares, and requested,ot the nahtnnheddet provisional hoi committee, eun mt anyof A that num ber the shares were for a considerable time selling at a pre mium,mittee had asked or received any further allotment than those shares did not exceed 100. Overtures had been made by the Manchester and Milford-haven Company, which had, however, fallen to the ground, as that Com pany were not in a condition to go to Parliament. They were aftorwards induced to alter the original line, and that involved an increased expense of 57,0001. This was not the fault of the engineer, for by the odposition of the Earl of Lisburn, they were obliged to make a tunnel 5,000 yards (as we understood) in length, At present, the Company, after paying the accounts which had been sent into them, had a balance in their favour of 49,992/. Os. sd. Among the items of expenditure was about 9,0001. to the engineer, of which 5,9001. was paid.— (Shame.) The reading of the solicitor's account, amounting to nearly 6,0001., 2,900/. of which was paid, was alsq received with disapprobation. Mr. FULLRR moved the adoption of the report, and that the further call of 11. should not be made until after the second reacting of their Bill in the House of Commons. WILIJAMS, in a long address, full of detailed statistics, exhibiting the expected traffic on the line, seconded the resolution. Mr. HOPGOOD said, that on looking oyev the account, he could not conceal from himself that the direction which could §4t ction such An expenditure were not en titled to the confidence of the shareholders. They had an engineer whose expenses amounted to 9,0001., and a solicitor's of 6,0002, and the sooner inquiry was made into every circumstance connected with thp 4np the better, Mr. COURTENAT rose, and said that he was forced to address the meeting, and he did so in consequence of the discourteous manner in which the proceedings had been conducted on the part of the committee of manage- ment ; but now he had once embarked with the ethers, he was determined never to stop until he obtained some solution of the affairs of this Cornp.any. He had several questions tq asic hefore he proposed the resolution which he intended that day to submit to the meeting. In the first place, h@ found the names of eighty-eight viduals inserted in the prospectus as -romoters, mad out of that number seventy-one resided i. t h e • through which the line wso tc i s country 44e should like to know how iIIYIY c those arotAoters had taken shares, and to what fnuount?—(Cheers.) The gentleman who had just sat down said that La lived two miles away from the line, He (Mr. Courtenay) wanted to know what had been done for the line by those gentlemen whose lands were to be benefited by it? Ho would ask the chairman how many, of the proluoters had shares? The en4ls3to said that such a question was not customary.—(Cries of " Yes, it is; yes, it ii." " Where is tt e secretary ?") Mr. COURTENAy remonstrated against the disturb ance. The CHAIRMAN said he could not say how many of the promoters were holders. but he knew how many - 1 trbroath and Forfar ••• •• • Jan.
