But he had one more point to mention, Mr. Barclay was directed, and very properly, not to confine his attention solely to the engineering pert of the question, but also to take measures to form a judgment of the commercial part, tho amount of traffic that might he expected, and he found that the traffic by the Tulghaul at the present moment amounted to no less than 78,000 tons per annum, end by the Baerghaut, independent of ;passengers; of whom there was a great number, 32,000 tons. Now, _taking the traffic at only these amounts, he had not had time to go into the calculation himself, but Ur. Nicholson had gone into it, and he said that the Tulghaut would produce a revenue of 7 per cent., and the Bhoorgheut 6 per cent. ;An Chapman, he believed, estimated the total amount from both passes at 180,000 tons per annum broUght into one stream.

Graham, Hofmann, Muspratt, Watson, Budd, Marshall Hall, Travers, Fergnsson, Howe, Vivian, Ileygate, Leman, Arnold, Evans, Formby, Petrie, Macrobie, Vose, Tufnell, Hunter, Davies, Jones, Senior, Maclaren, Macaulay, Gray, Teevan, Hill, Hayward, llarrison, Pepper, Inman, Sir Chance Clarke, the Sanatory Commissioner of the " Lancet," &e , &c., &c. (many of them after carefid analyses, and all of them after long ex perience), having been pronounced in favour of the healthful and in vigorating qualities, as well as the healthy dietetic properties of their Pale and Bitter Ales, Messrs. ALLSOPP have little more to do than to place, once for all, before the public, in a brief form, the accredited results of the late investigations and recorded experience of those in disputable authorities. Messrs. ALLSOPP & SON'S Pale or Bitter Ales have been thus unques' ionably vouched to be " a very agreeable and efficient tonic, as a general beverage both for the invalid and the robust; and as tending, front the pure and wholesome nature of the ingredients em ployed, the moderate proportion of alcohol present, and the very considerable quantity of aromatic anodyne bitter derived from hops alone, which they contain, to preserve the tone and vigour of the stomach, and to conduce to the restoration of that organ when in a state of weakness, debility, or irritibiiity." In all cases in which. Malt Liquors are suitable, none meet the de sired effect more certanly, none are prescribed with more confidence by the Faculty. " The careful manner in which the fermentation is conducted, causes them to assimilate to Foreign Wines more than the ordinary ales of this country ; and on this account they do not occasion that acidity cf stomach created by the less perfectly fer mented ales." " These Bitter Beers differ from all other prepara tions of malt, in containing a smaller amount of extractive matter, thus being less viscid and saccharine, and consequently more easy of digestion. They resemble, indeed, from their lightness, a Wine of Malt rather than an ordinary fermented infusion ; and it is very sa tisfactory to find that a beverage of such general consumption is en tirely free from every kind of impurity." Fortified by such opinions, expressed in the above terms, verbatim, by the most eminent authorities, Messrs. ALLSOPP & SONS do not feel themselves called upon to go into any further vindication of their justly popular beverage, from the aspersions of malicious and inte rested parties; but content themselves by announcing that they have commenced supplies from the Brewing of this Season. _ ALL SOPP'S PALM OR BITTER ALE may be obtained in Casks of 18 Gallons and upwards, from the Brewery, Burton-on-Trent; and from the undermentioned Branch Establishments:— LONDON, at 61, King William-street, City.

Yesterday the sixth half-yearly general meeting of ,he proprietors of this railway was held a t th e i r offices, SOW Broad-street; Lord WHARNCLIFFE, the chairman of the directors, in the chair. The report, which has already appeared, having been The CHAIRMAN, in moving that the report be adopted, expressed his satisfaction at once more finding himself presiding at their meetings. Lie would call their atten tion to the statement of the accounts. They would find that they had up to the time at which the accounts were made up a sum of 485,1851. capital paid into the East India Company's treasury, and for which they were re- eriving interest, and there was but a small balance therefore at that time left batween the actual sum paid in and tho total amount of capita!, which was 500,0001. That small difference, however, arose entirely from the absence of specific reports of the last payments in India which had been received, ha believed, at a subsequent date. He might therefore now announce to them, as mentioned in the report, that the entire capital of 500,000/ required for the execution of the first portion of the line had been paid into the East India Company's treat sury, and was now available for their purposes, and this company was now receiving the interest which had been guaranteed upon it. But he thought there were more satisfactory features in these accounts than even that which he had particularized. They would observe that up to the time the accounts were made out, the expenses amounted to only 193,5211., leaving no less than 291,000/. in hand for the prosecution of the works . _ of the company. He thought that might be taken as a very favourable state of affairs, considering how long they had been engaged in their undertaking. Bat even this was not as satisfactory as the statement which he had yet to make to them, for it was now satisfactorily ascer tained that although 500,000/ was the capital required originally for the completion of this line, the contracts proved that they would be able, without any doubt, not merely to construct the line, but to provide the neces sary plant for working it for a sum loss by one-fifth below the capital. He believed Mr. Nicholson (the secretary) would confirm him when he stated that they had now a certain prospect, arising from the actual com pletion of contracts and a perfect knowledge of the ex penses to which they should be put, that they should put the railway in a working state for 400,000/, leaving 100,0001 of their capital applicable for any other pur pose, though this included a branch and a double line , which he believed was four or five miles in length, which was of course an additional expense. He would now proceed to the other main feature of the report and of their undertaking in general, namely, the great question as to the prolongation of the line, because although they were all aware that they were greatly interested in the limited portion on which they were now employed, which was in the first instance to solve the great pro- blem as to the introduction of railway enterprise into 1 the Indian territories ; nevertheless the undertaking would be a very incomplete and insufficient one it they could not look with some confidence to its extension to other districts. In the first place, then, they had not only the prospect of having the line opened soon within the island of Bombay, but the additional contracts to oarry it on had been actually made and the work con siderably advanced. He had, moreover, to state that he believed there was little doubt, from the information received from the engineer, that the portion up to Canna would be actually open and in operation—that was to say, in the main island, in February next. With regard to the Malsejghaut, Mr. Barclay satisfied himself that it was liable to very serious objections. First of all it would be very eepensive. There would be four or five miles of tunnelling, and gradients of 1 in 40 for, he believed, 13 miles, and, in consequence, Mr. Barclay stated that the works could not be executed under 10 years, and the totid expense would be alarm ing. Mr. Barclay then proceeded to examine the others, and be found that of the three passes the most favour able was the Tulghaut, and it was also the most favour able in a commercial point of view, as it would bring them into the heart of the country. He found that the gradients and the nature of the work were unexpectedly favourable. He ascertained that the line could be made with no more tunnelling than about 900 yards, and that the worst gradient in the whole line was 1 in 37 for only six miles and a half. Now, when it was recollected that in this country they run trains daily on the Bristol and Birmingham line on an incline of precisely that gradient, though not for such a distance, it appeared to him that that was no insuperable obstacle. The other gradients were more easy. Then there were very few viaducts of any consequence, only 176 yards, and the result of his calculations were, founding them upon con tracts already entered into, and upon the experience he had gained during his residence in India as superinten dent of the company's works, that this line might be made for a sum not exceeding 10,000/. a mile. t Well, then,2mpw:eoho nwhich sceooh htf of feaa tn s a: a otl i n,o d ooi , one xo f 31e. parallel, a h uf e tome y riltsehho, were able to surmount this chain of mountains, and attain a summit level of not less than w l:dt i i an t an h coac g eno, gradients d opb itideihsnehat other p art ap o a ab f wr toe n rx o o ; ee they s s h e be works i short should oe d s bd i t . h o e world.

A SHIRETIoLDER asked if the guarantee extended to a line through auy of the Ghauts? The ' CitAIRMAN replied that technically it applied only to the AiLlsej; but he apprehended if they were to make it through one of the others, it would be below the dig nity of the East India Company to make any objection of that sort. A vote of thanks to the chairman and directors, it11(1 a special vote of C. , ,tika to hlr. Nicholson, the secretary, were then severally agreeti to, which closed the business. DEWIERAReIiAIL^' COMPANY. Yesterday the orW- - half-yearly meeting of the shareholders was held at the London Tavern, t 4 'n the chair. The rkport ar were read by the Secretary the principal features " In act' last, The possible,, he, until the line Mr. Manifold'., cr Tine, being abandon ;ed in August ~ edir?usly as Air% ~.,1 ;beigranted the event of to lease the will recommend to an adjourned ineethee or tha 4 - eel letors a further con tributioa, to be added to the preferential stock,' all nego tiations with Mr. Manifold on the subject of leasing the railway have ceased, and the dire eters have received from that gentleman a tender for the completion of the line to Mahaica, for a sum payable in cash. They are also in treaty with another contractor, who has ex pressed his willingness to accept pay men t i n b on d s o f th 9 company, to be issued" under the new ordinance, authorizing an increase of the capital. This ordinance for creating the preferential stock has passed the Court of Policy, and will probably bo sent home for her Ma jesty's approval by the next packet. On the second reading. the amount to be raised was, on the motion of a member of the court, increased to 50,0001, which will be more than sufficient to complete the railway to Mahaica,and meet all the liabilities of the company. Since the last meeting of shareholders one of your directors and largest proprietors, Mr. W. Brand, has proceeded to De merara on his private affairs ; he will, however, on his arrival in the colony,place himself in communication with Mr. Porter, and the board expect that much benefit will be derived from Mr. Porter being enabled to consult with a gentleman of Mr. Brand's local knowledge and great personal interest in the railway. The accounts lately received from Mr. Porter are of a much more satisfactory nature, as in a letter, dated 24th August, he states That the line is in very much bettor order than it was:' he also mentions that the goods traffic has very consider ably increased, and that when the line is open to Mahaica and fully developed, the gross receipts will be more than 2,0001. per month, or upwards of 24,0001. per annum. The traffic receipts for the carriage of goods and pas sengers from January 1 to August 31 last, amounted to 7,6881. ; while the corresponding period of last year onty produced 6,6481. Before concluding this report, your directors must in justice to themselves draw your attention to the very general feelings of regret that have been expressed in the colony and elsewhere, at the share holders declining to lease the line to Mr. Manifold. Not withstanding tho discrepancies of statements on various matters connected with the railway which existed be tween Mr. Manifold and Mr. Porter, the latter gentle man hue, in every letter received from him, urged on your directors the advantages of completing such a desirable arrangement ;' and at the date of his last communication to the board, the 25th of September, having received the report of the proceedings of the pro ceedings of the special general meeting of shareholders, he expresses his regret that Mr. Manifold's proposal bee been rejected ;' he concludes his letter by `strongly urging' on the directors the expediency of leasing the line. The late deputy-chairman, Mr. Naghten, retires from the board.' The accounts show an expenditure of 13,0591. 4s. 4d., including cost of working the line, pur chase of land, carrying on now works, interest, and other charges, and receipts from tri.ale, amounting to 5,6321. 15s. 10d. The CHAIRMAN wished to offer one or two observa tions before moving the adoption of r.he report. The proprietary would recollect that when they embarked in This undertaking in 1846, it was estimated that the out lay required to make the lino to Mahaica would be 250,0001. The actual expenditure, allowing a liberal amount for the completion of the line to Mahaica, and including every item of outlay, as interest to share holders, and all other charges, would bo 275,4711., no very great increase on the original estimate. (Hear.) Ho might mention, with a view to afT,,rd some basis for esti mating the probable returns, th at t h e p o p u l a tion of Bri tish Guiana had increased since they embarked in this speculation 30 per cent., that the crops of lust year of those estates along the line which were now using the railway (that was those estates for which the line was now carrying) amounted to 5,810 hhds, and this year it was estimated they would amount to 6,750 hhds; and the estimated crops for the present year of the estates not now using the railway, but which there was every reason to believe would use it the moment it could ac commodate their traffic, amounted to 8,500 hhds. Taking the cost of the railway at the sum he had stated, it would amount to 13,117/. per mile; the weekly traffic was 15/. per mile, which it was fair to caleulate would be doubled when tho line was made through to Mahaica; and, taking ten of the principal English and Scotch lines, ho found the average cost per mile bad been 50,9841., while the mean traffic was only 521. per mile. Tee resolution was carried unanimously, and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the business. RAILWAY RETURNS. TRAFFIC RETURNS FOR THE PAST WEEK Mlles opened, 1852. NAME OF RAILWAY. BRITISH.

Huntley, relative to the Dicksburg property (dated the 15th of Sept.), announcing the gra ti!ying fact of the completion of the purchase. The fol lowing extract from the dispatch will be received with much satisfaction by the shareholders:—' The whole property was examined by Captain Davies, and the quartz of every lode tried. Each trial gave a satis factory result, and some of them were extremely rich.' There :can be no doubt that the Anglo-Californian Curnpar:l have now a location vieond to none in di& count:y it is held under the best tenure existing, namely, property purchased from American citizens, who have recorded their possession of it according to the mining rules of the district ; and these rules are supported by legislative enactment, and are recognized by the courts of law throughout the state. Of the apparent richness of the lodes Mr. Davies has already given his report, and it is only necessary to say that his opinions are founded upon forty years' experience in the mines of three different nations." A SIIAREITOLDER—Is the Dieksburg property pur chased in fee? The CHAIRMAN replied in the affirmative. The SHAREHOLDER—That is so far satisfactory. A SHAREHOLDER observed that the other lands in the possession of the company had only been obtained for a period of five years. He wished to know if there was any right of renewal, as the company might be put to great expense in erecting buildings and machinery on the land ? The CHAIRMAN said Sir H. Huntley had found that it was impossible to bind the American company for a longer period, but than was this advantage that at the end of the five years they were perfectly free, and could givo up the mines if unsuccessful; while, if the contrary should happen, in all probability they would have an opportunity of either purchasing the land, or of renew ing the lease for a much longer term. (Hear.) The SHAREHOLDER said it appeared from the accounts received from California, that great hopes were enter tained that the local legislature would abolish the re striction limiting the duration of leases in their next session. The CHAIRMAN said, whatever that might be, ho had ❑o doubt that satisfactory terms would be made with the American company at tho expiration of the term. On the whole, he thought the directors had to present to the shareholders a most satisfactory state of things, and not the least ground for congratulation was the fact that this company was established under the salutary provi sions of the Joint Stock Company's Act, which afforded a great protection to the shareholders. Some of the ad vantages of being registered under that Act, it might be right to mention. The shares could be transferred with out the slightest difficulty, and no shareholder could be made responsible for the liabilities, except in company with all the others. Then the management of the whole affairs of the Society were virtually placed in the hands of the Shareholders, the Directors forming merely the executive to carry out their commands, and if they did not fulfil the requirements of the Act they would be subject to the pains and penalties of misdemeanour. Every transaction was carefully entered in the Company'. hooks, 'and if any of the shareholders entertained any doubt as:to the conduct of the Directory, all they had to do was to summon a special roLetine and h^vn all tho books placed before them. Those, ho conceived, were ♦ery great advantages. There might bo some who thought that unnecessary delay had taken place in com mencing mining operations in California; but on that head he considered the details in the report wore suffi cient to satisfy any reasanablo person. It sometimes happened, thlt most fallacious ideas wore entertained in rogard to gold mining in California. It was supposed by many, that as soon as the machinery was landed, the yield of gold would commence. That was, however, a mistake. Many things had to be done before they could begin crushing rock. First, the land had to be selected, and ready money sent out for its purchase. Then a great deal of legal matter had to bo got through, which oc cupied as much time in California as in this country; and finally, the necessary buildings had to be erected for carrying on their operations. He had no doubt that at the time ho now spoke, everything was complete, and that in November, or as soon as the weather per mitted, the crushing of rock and the other proceedings would go on with the same rapidity as in the mining districts of England. At the outset, they (the Directors) thought the delays that had taken place would be preju dicial to the company; but a change had since come over their minds, for they were of opinion that if they had had commenced crushing quartz, instead of, in the first instance, looking about for a property which the com pany could call its own, they would now have been in a mush less favourable position. (Hear.) The purchase of the Dicksburg estate had been a most successful trans action. Comparisons were said to be odious ; but, with out wishing to act invidiously, he could not refrain from drawing a comparison between this and two other mining companies in California—the Nouveaux Monde and the Carson's Creek Companies. He was quite satisfied that these companies would be most successful, though dif ferently constituted to the A ng l o -S axon C om p any; b u t while he said this, he was equally convinced that the latter company would he much more successful. A SHAREHOLDER—For the reason that we have no American shareholders to divide the proceeds with us. The CHAIRMAN said the hon. proprietor was perfectly correct. Take, for example, the Carson's Creek Com pany. When they acquired any gold, 40 per cent. had to be given to the English, and 60 per cent to the Ameri can shareholders. Now, by making an absolute pur chase. of the Di e k s b arg property, t h e w h o l e o f t h e pro fits would go to the shareholders in this company. A SHAREHOLDER asked if the land was subject to any royalty ? The CHAIRMAN.—None whatever. The Carson's Creek Company, and he believed with perfect truth, anticipated making 78,000/. a year by their mining operations; of that 38,0004 would go to the shareholders in England, and the remaining 40,0001. to the American shareholders. The calculations made by that company were bused on the number of tons they could crush in the year, and the average yield of gold in each ton. The yield varied from 30oz to 2oz a ton. We estimated that the Anglo-Saxon Company, after paying for the Dicks burg estate, would have nine-tenths of the profits left for division among the proprietors. The Nouveaux Monde Company, by the terms of their arrangement, would have to pay the American Company, from whom they held their land, 30,0001 a year before they could declare any dividend. Bat this company was not fettered by such a partnership, and theretore, after paying the ex penses of working, the remainder, as he before intimated, would be entirely their own. (Cheers.) He attributed their good fortune in obtaining the Dickshurg preperty would not entirely to the zeal and activity of Sir H. Huntley, to his undoubted high character, and to his long experience in California. (Cheers.) It he (the Chairman) were wholly misinformed, in less than two years, the property would be worth at least 50,000/, which sum they have no difficulty in getting, should they be disposed to sell the land. (Cheers.) He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Mr. ASHTON seconded the motion. Mr. RICHARD BARKER, of Whitohaven, congratulated the shareholders upon the satisfactory nature of the report. For twenty years ho had been more or less en gaged upon mining speculations in Cumberland, and he could, therefore, speak from experience upon many points connected with this company. He was rejoiced to hear that the machinery was rapidly approaching com pletion, for that circumstance would enable them to crush for others as well as themselves. He came now to the question of royalty. He was glad to hear that the tenure of their mines was fixed and certain, and he had but little doubt that with honest and energetic managers, the property would ultimately prove highly remunerative. According to the best calculations, the yield of gold in quartz varied from 3d. to3s. Id., but he wou ld ta k e th e lowest figure, and, allowing 50 tons a day by the ma chinery, with 200 working days in the year, they would get an annual return of 320,0001. That might appear to be a large sum; but, according to the best authorities, Californian quartz yields from four to 25 pounds of gold in a ton, and if they took the l owest o f t h ese figures as the basis of their calculations, the profit would be eque to 40,000/. a year. There c o u ld b e no quest i on, h owev er, that the gold improved as the m i nes got d eep( r into the earth ; in fact it extended even to veins—and, from let ters which he had received from California, he was con vinced the return of profit, would be much greater than ho had just estimated. (Cheers.) Ho, therefore, con gratulated the shareholders upon the state of t heir pros pects, and thanked the directors meat heart, for the 2j3 5,548 17,1.2 1,40 J 375 50,892 1,005 12,795 12,624 134 7,039 648 2.1,u52 2,709 2,4214 4,045 5,592 147 15,668 9,402 1,114 clear and impartial report which they had issued to tie proprietors. (Chet re) The CHAIRMAN said he should be happy t o answ, r any qut stions before he put the resolution. Mr. JENNINGS was rejoiced to that the exertions of Sir H. Huntley bad been so successful. Too much cau tion, however, could not be used in their early opera tions, and he should be glad to know if it was intended to use all the machines at once. (II( ar, hear.) The CHAIRMAN said they certainly were in possession of most valuable machinery. Tht y had one engine of no horse power, fitted up with stampers and crushing mills. The rollers of this engine would crush 10 tons a❑ hour. Mr. JENNINGS said ho did not want any details. He repeated that he was glad they had the machinery, be cause it would enable them to crush the dirt found in the gold rivers, without running any risk whatever. He hoped, however, that the Carolina mine, which could not be worked at present, or alone, with great auvantage, would not bo sacrificed. The CHAIRMAN said certainly not. The company had three engines, and three sets of crushing mills. The Dicksburg mill was worked with water power, and they were therefore in possession of more machinery than they actually wanted, Under these circumstances, Sir H. Huntley had determined to keep the Carolina mine in operation, so that the machinery might be constantly in use. (Hear, hear.) Mr. PARKER asked what was the relative position of those two mines? The CHAIRMAN said the Carolina mine was about 20 miles from Dicksburg, and two were about equi-distant from the point where the steam power ceased. A PROPRIETOR —What is the distance from the Seed mento? The CHAIRMAN said it was about 60 miles, but there _wee e geed road, ate:l nu tiileulty would be found in getting the machinery there. After the CHAIRMAN had given tome explanation re lative to the balance•sbeet, of a technical nature, A PROPRIETOR remarked that, although Sir 11. Hunt ley had the opportunity of making other advantageous purchases, he considered that the directors had adopted a wiso course i❑ not extending their operations too much, however tempting the opportunities of acquiring fresh property might be. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN remarked that six months could not elapse without solving the question whether the mining could be carried on successfully or not, and then would he the time for the directors to consider the propriety of extending their operations. (Cheers.) A PROPRIETOR wished to know what Was the state of the share capital. The CHAIRMAN said that 78,000 shares were regis tered; but that a deposit of 10s. a share had been paid back upon 10,000 shares. A SHAREHOLDER—Have you any intention of issuing further shares? The CHAIRMAN hoped not. The Directors were the largest shareholders in the company, and of course it was their interest not to increase the proprietary; and, if close driven fur money, it was satisfactory that they had the power of increasing their capital by borrowing. But it would not be right to ask the directors to pledge themselves to any positive course in this respect. (1.1. , ur, hear.) All he said to-day was that if now shares had to be issued they would not be thrown on the market—the present proprietary should have the first offer. (Hear, hear.) A PROPRIETOR wished to know how the company stood in reference to the legal proceedings which cer tain alloitees had instituted against the Directors? Toe CHAIRMAN stated they considered that they had, in effect, succeeded in the actions brought against them, and he had no appreheusiuns for the future. At all events the expences on this heal had been nearly brought to a close, and in a short time he hoped the company would be entirely free from litigation. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Massey DAWSON (a Director) explained the origin and nature of actions brought against the com pany. They were merely speculative actions, the attor ney taking the chance of the costs; and this at least was certain—though he could not say other actions might not he brought—that they would see no more speculative actions. The CHAIRMAN took the opportunity of that discussion to couttudiet the assertion which had been made, that certain shares had been forfeited by a trick of the di rectors, in not giving the shareholders sufficient time to register. Six clear months was given to every shareholder to sign the deed, and the directors did all they could to induce these allottees to sign in the first instance. They refused however to do so, until more than six months had expired, and the shares had reached a premium, when they became particularly anxious to be allowed to join the concern, but the Direc tors thought it only just to those who had signed the deed, in duo course, nos to admit them. (Hear, hear.) The adoption of the report was then put from the Chair, mid carried unanimously. ' me. O. r. DAP:SON, cue of the retiring Directors, inti mated that it was nut his intention to offer himself for re-election. Ile lived in Cornwall, a great distance from town, and his attendance at the B. and would in future be a source of groat inconvenience to him. Besides, the services he could render the Company would not be com mensurate with the sacrifices he would have to make on his own account; and as ho had full confidence in the prudence of the rest of the Board, ho II as desirous of being relieved from the office he had hither.° filled. The Company was going on swimingly, and could coolly spare him; indeed, he might say that their net was now fully spied upon the waters, and all the Directors would have to do in future would be to draw it in from time to time, and take the luck which Providence might vouch safe them. (Cheers.) Nothing could be more gratify ing than the present position of the Company. They were in possession of machinery equal to any to be found in Cornwall, end capable of crushing a hundred tons a day, while in addition to that, they held a pro perty in tee, respected by all the recogniz3d laws of the country, not even excepting that of Mr. Justice Lynch (a laugh), which they had obtained at a mere nominal price ; and ho was thoroughly con vinced that in a very short time the venture in which they were all embarked would prove a most complete success. (Cheers.) With these observations he begged leave to move the re-election of the retiring directors, viz.. Dr. Barker, Mr. Hinoks, Mr. Parker, and Mr. Falder. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Lewes seconded the resolution. A SIIAREHoLDER said he believed their friend, Mr. G. Dawson, had ❑ot stated the real cause of his resig nation. The fact was, Mr. Dawson had recently dis patched his son to California, and he had received such glowing accounts from him of the extent of gold to be found there, that he had determined to send out another sun, with a quantity of machinery, to speculate on his own private account. (Rear, hear) This, of course, would take up some of his time, and ho could not well attend to their interest and his own toe. ( El( ar, hear.) Mr. G. De.waoli said he had himself correctly stated the reason of his resignation, and the lion. shareholder was somewhat out of order in making the statement they bad just heard, though he readily admitted that the statement was not altogether devoid of truth. At the instance of Mr. Richard Barker, a discussion arose upon the propriety of reducing the number of di rectors from ten to seven ; but the chairman gave de tailed reasons why the larger number was required, and the sense of the meeting being against the suggestion, it was not pressed. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. It was then proposed and seconded that Mr. MeLeod of Dover, and Mr. Ommaney of Charing Cross, be elected directors in the room of Sir C. Rumbold, and Mr. George Dawson. Mr. G. BARKER moved an amendment to the effect, that the sum awarded for the expenses be reduced from 1,2001. to 8 001. ; but on a show or hands the proposal was lost. Mr. Barker stated as his reason for urging this that until a dividend was declared, the most rigid econo my ought to bo practised. The amendment was univer sally rejected, and the above gentlemen were then elected to the Board. Mr. Charles Spooner of Leamington, and Mr. C. P. Cottrell were elected auditors. Dr. BARTLETT proposed, and Dr. BARKER seconded a cordial vote of thanks to Sir U. Huntley and the other officers of the company in Calitornia, which was carried with acclamation. A vote of confidence in the chairman and directors was passed with the same unanimity; and thanks having been voted to the secretary, the meeting which was largely attended, then separated. Tnu CoLONlES.—Advices have been received from Mauritius to the 10. h of September. The general screw steamer Harbinger had arrived with the mails from England to the 14th of July and 30,0001. in specie Document bills had been negotiated at 4 per cent. dis count, and, previously to the receipt of specie from London and India, it was fully expected that even for the present mail rates would have further declined. It was considered probable that during the ensuing month the discount would not exceed 5 per cent. Australian Bank bills had been taken at 21 to 3 por cent, discount. For bank post bills 1 por cont. premium had been asked, but not obtained. Treasury-bills ranged from Ito 1 per cent. premium. Bills on the Oriental Bank had been negotiated at 50 1 per Company's rupee. An active business had taken plac e in Su g ar, at prices varying from 3 dol. 655. to 4 dol. 75c.

SEYMOUR The statement of an. 111 , 11 attempt upon the lite of the Rev. D • Seymour, in the county of Galway, has been have by the rev. gentleman's friends. Th e treated the matter either as a pure fabrication, or a a v a ° a gross misrepresen tation of some accidental circumstance. Mr. Seymour is not c3nnected with land, and is besides greatly respected and esteemed by the peasantry. Yesterday, Jacob Castfebeig, watchmaker, of 23, Neweast/e-street, Whitechapel, aud liteuben Hurt, who described himself us a tailor, were placed at the bar of the Bow-st7ect, Police-court, before Mr. Jardine, charged on Suspicion of being concerned in stealing gold and Silver watches from the. shop of Mr. Jones, of 308, Strand, in the night of the 9th of October last. Mr. John Jones, the prosecutor, deposed as follows: I am a watchmaker and jeweller, living at 308, Strand. On the night of October 9, a large quantity of stock, con sisting of gold and silver watches and jewellery,wks stolen from my premises. I offered a considerable reward for the property. Yesterday evening (Therseay) a man aimed Ashley called at my shop. I had a partial remembrance of him, from his having applied to me for work on a for mer occesion; but I had no other knowledge of the man. He showed me four silver watch-case, without either the movements or glesses belonging to them. They F c it o fo s r e in q u u t e i n o t i l l y giver, t strongly resembl e d a portion of the iitolcn p roperty, an r d om I l n oo to me by A k them to one shl y f r in e y k-pt 7 e t tic i :7 l he . watch cases, I was induced to couter with Mr. Pearce, the auperintenderat of police, whom I afterwards uceoni panied to the house of the prisoner Custleberg, at 23, Newcastle-street, Whitechepel-road. We found Cas tleberg there. Mr. Peatee produced the four silver watch cases, and showed them to him separately, at the same time asking if he had over seen either of them before. He said, No." Pearce then asked him if he knew a man named Ashley? He replied " Yes," add ing, " that Ashley had occasionally done little jobs for him." Pearce asked him if he had ever given the fear silver watch cases to Ashley, or either of them? The prisoner replied " No." Then Pearce said to him, " I am a police °Moor, and I charge you with having stolen property in your possession," subsequently announcing his intention to search the house. The prisoner then asked who I was, and who the other parties were (my workman and two police-constables) who accompanied us? Pearce told him that I was Mr. Jones, upon which he exclaimed, " Oh, Mr. Jones, T am a watchmaker; the swat, kiB you are." Pearce began searching about the shop, and presently opened a drawer, in which we saw the inside works (or moveraents), and the glass, be longing to each of the watch oases. I took up the movements, one after the other, and fitted them into the cases which I had received from Ashley. I can swear that the works found in the prisoner's drawer belonged to those cases. The Attorney for the prosecution Can you also swear that they are part of your property? Mr. Jones—That requires some explanation. In their present state I cannot swear positively to the movements. Upon my examining them minutely, the prisoner Castle berg maid, "I am only a workman, Mr. Jones, and these watches were brought to me is pieces, ready gilt and engraved, for mo to put together and get the cases polished. " I asked him, " Who gave them to you?" He said he did not know the name of the man, but that ho would be calling at his (Castleberg's) shop the next morning at 10 o'clock, so that if we watched for him wo might Luke him. I said to him, " Tell the truth, like a man," or words to that effect, " for you must know who brought them to you." The prisonee then said, "The man's name is Hart," I inquired if it was Levy or Aaron Hart, and I understood him to reply that it was Robin Hart. I asked him where Hart lived, and he said that he did net know, but could take me to the place. The officers present agreed to accompany him to Hart's resi dence, and I remained in Castleberg's shop with his workman, a Polish Jew, who could nut speak English. Mr. Jardine—Will you explain the alteration which you say has been made in the works since they were iu your possession? Mr. J OLIPB-The movements have been filed down muoti thinner, and the names and numbers erased from three of them, arid the plates re-coloured. I can toll this from my knowledge and experience as a watch maker. With respect to the fourth watch, the plate is also much reduced in thickness, owing to the erasure of the original maker's name. Another name is now en graved upon the plate, and the number of the watch has been altered. A figure 7 has been prefixed to the ori ginal number, and the figure 1 has been altered into the figure 4 On looking at the watch with my eyeglass I um prepared to say that the original number on the plate was 1,610. lc now appears to be 71,640. If you look with the eye-glass ut the figure which has been made into 4 you will see that the up stroke of u figure 1 still remains. (The magistrate, examined the watch, and appeared to concur in this opinion.) On reference to my stock book I am enabled to say that a silver watch, No. 1,610, was among the property stolen, and I believe that the watch now produced is the same. Indepen dently of the obvious alteration of the figures, and of the self-evident fact that the figure 7, prefixed to the original number, is engraved deeper than the old figures, I am confirmed in this impression by the character of the watch, which resembles the one that was stolen. Cross-examined, by an attorney who attended for Castleberg—My stock. book is here, and 1 find, on re ference to it, that the watch in question (No. 1,610) was taken into stock in September last—the maker's name being Silty and Co. I cannot refer to any entry respect ing the other watches, because the names and numbers upon them have been altered. For the same reason, I am unable to swear that they were in my possession on the day previous to the 9th instant, when the robbery took place; but I may mention the tact that the eases are made by my case-makers and the springs by my spring-makers. The name of "Setty and Co." has been obliterated from the fourth watch, and none other sub stituted. Any watch-maker could tell that the name plate had been thinned by the operation. Mr. J.lrdine—Would not 71,640 be a monstrous num ber to be upon a watch—if it indicates the number of watches made by the manufacturer ? Mr. Jones—The numberisalarge one, no doubt, but sometimes numbers are put on capriciously. Mr. Jardine—Oh, that's another matter. Superintendent Pearce, of the F division, after con firming the evidence of the prosecutor, said—When the prisoner Castleberg was asked where he obtained tho four watches, ho replied, " The person who gave them to me told mo not to say where I obtained them from, if any inquiry should be made." By the direction of Castleberg, I accompanied Pocock and another officer to Hart's house, 4, Hann's-placc, Whitechapel. Wo waited for him some time. He returned home at about hall-psst 12 o'clock at night. I told him I was an officer, and asked him if he know Castleberg. He said, " Yes." I asked him if he ever worked for Castleberg. He replied " I have occasionally done a job for him." I asked him if he had any of his watches with him at that time, and he said, "No ; I have none in hand." We went up stairs, and Pocock pulled out a box from under his bcd. It contained a quantity of articles in pearl, electro-plate, &c., but nothing which Mr. Jones could identify as belonging to him. Hart said ho was a tailor. This morning (Friday) I was standing in the yard at the back of the police-station when Hart came out of his cell. The other prisoner (Castleberg) ex claimed, on seeing him, " That's the man I bad the watches of." William Gallington, journeyman watchmaker, said— I live at Henry-street, Limehouse ' and have worked for Mr. Jones about eight years—and five years of the time on the premises, 308, Strand. I inhave w b a ee h n esp the rdo h u tt o b e i fi t of repairing watches. I know the watches very well, and can identify three of them positively. I saw them four or five weeks ago in the possession of Mr. Jones, and I am tolerably certain as to the other watch also. The movements were given to me originally to take to pieces and to repair, and new cases were to be made for them. Finally, I delivered them into the hands of Mr. Jones's sister. (The witness described the altera tions and erasures upon the name-plate, as already deposed to by the prosecutor.) Cross examined—l would not swear that it was not rather more than five or six weeks ago. It might have been two months ago since I saw them last. No doubt " Setty and Co." have made and sold a good many watches, but I remembered the watch in question more particularly, because I had never mot with the maker's name before. All Mr. J,,nes's watches do not pass through my hands; but this sort generally does. There being no further evidence at present, Mr. Jar dine remanded the case for a week, and refused to admit either of the prisoners to bail.
