Mr. TAYLOR felt sure it would be a long time be fore the sanction of the shareholders would be ob tained to such extravagances as building workshops on Crinley-meadow. He thought it was impossible for gentlemen on the board to fulfil their duties properly, considering that they represented in the aggregate the interests of 122 companies, and that one member of the Board represented 18 companies. He knew if the chairman could give his time to the company it must result in advantage to the share holders. He hoped the shareholders would resist any further increase of capital, as they were spend ing like £l,OOO a week in Parliamentary and law expenses. On reference to Mr. Borde's Report, it will be seen that when the various improvements which have been sug gested have been completed, and the Catalan property fully developed; it is estimated to yield a gross profit of upwards of cent. per cent., and this within a period of three years, although the estimates have been based on the more extended period of five years, and that when the Fort St. Nicholas is removed, and the new port completed, this profit will be trebled.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE, FOR HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Popr Houses, each night numbers of y oung women, c hild ren, an d orp h ans are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

Perhaps they had had already too many promises ; but he hoped that in the future they would have, instead of promises, sound performances. He would onlypromise them whatever railway experience he had, and whatever exertions he could make in their service should be faithfully and honestly performed, and if he succeeded by the aid of the directors in raising the dividend to that point which he had always felt it ought to attain, he should be amply rewarded for his exertions and trouble. The policy which ought to guide them in the future was totally to abstain from bringing upon themselves those heavy obligations to which, un fortunately, they had been too much accustomed. They had in too many instances bought off oppo sition by taking over contractors' lines, many of which should never have been made, and which were not for the benefit of the country, but simply for the advantage of individuals. They ought to leave such lines to find their own resources, and if the promoters should ever be able to complete them, which in many cases they would never do without assistance from large companies, it would be better policy for the company to light them after they were completed than to take upon themselves the liabilities belonging to such lines. He thought the evil would be found much less in the one case than in the other. They should, as far as possible, make arrangemens for utilising the lines of their neighbours, and giving them the opportunity of utilising their own lines, so that they might make the best arrangements for carrying forward the traffic for the mutual advantage of the different companies concerned and the accommodation of the public. There were many portions of their line where, probably, by giving rnnning powers to one company over them, and getting in exchange run ning powers over the lines of the other companies, they might greatly benefit the public and be enabled to work the traffic at less cost. From communica tions he had had with other large companies, there was a general feeling that those were principles which should guide them. If that course were generally adopted, he believed they might look for ward to a much better position for railway pro perty. He regretted that the present accounts showed so little dividend. The revenue account dur ing the past half-year showed an increase of £42,255, of which £21,330 was derived from passengers, and £20,986 from goods. The former was worked at a slight increase of cost, but the latter, owing to a reduction of rates and an increased mileage of 239,574 miles, was worked at considerable cost. During the last winter they had been very short of working plant, and were therefore unable to take all the goods and mineral traffic that had been offered to them ; but if they had had a full supply of work ing stock the additional traffic, nothwithstanding reduced rates, would have shown a much better re sult. They had had an increase in the item of re newal of the permanent way of £7,000, which arose almost entirely from the reconstruction of the Aber gaveny and Hereford line, by replacing the Barlow rails with a permanent and better road, and of the line in the Worcester district. In the locomotive department they had an excess of £5,649, arising from increased mileage of trains. There was also an increase of £6,578 in the carriage and waggon repairs. There was an increase of £11,849 in the carrying account, but he felt certain that some items in it might be reduced. The Hammersmith line, which was formerly worked separately, was now worked as a joint line, and therefore came rather heavily on the working charges. The rates and taxes were growing items, over which they had but little control. The rent-charges had increased in respect of various branches, but, as the traffic increased on them, the charge would diminish. Several of the branches showed a satisfactory increase of traffic, and he trusted, by carefully looking after them, they would eventually yield a profit, instead of involving a loss. The general interest account had increased, I not only in consequence of the increased capital ex pended during the half-year, but also to some extent from the increased rate of interest they had to pay for temporary loans. It was scarcely possible to control the Parliamentary expenses, because the directors must protect the property of the company against the attacks which were made upon it every Session. The accident account Was an unsatis factory one, as in the preceding half-year they had charged £15,000 to that acco unt, and in the past . riciht to half-year the directors had thought it c charge 125,000 agains t the revenue on account of acc id e nts, the balance being so large. The loss on the working of the Vale of Neath Railway was put down at £ 20 , 000 for the past year, but it was hardly fair to say it was a loss, because traffic had been diverted from the Vale of Neath, which was worked as part'of.thepreat Western system, instead of being worked separately ; but it was not all loss, and he had no doubt the actual loss would eventu ally be got rid of by judicious management. They would soon have to consider the question of gauge as to how it was to be dealt with. It was a question the Board would have to solve kefore the next meet ing. They had recently received a memorial signed by nearly every firm of any standing in South Wales, expressing a desire that the narrow gauge might be carried out in that district ; and they were also pressed on the same subject in many other districts. It would involve a large expenditure and would absorb some of the new capital they proposed to raise by their bill. There had been about 220 bills deposited in Parliament this session which more or less affected the company, but they were now re duced to 195 bills, which they would have to watch and look after, some of which were of great impor tance. There were lines promoted, not for the benefit of the district, but from A to B across the country, merely by an engineer, a contractor, and a lawyer, hoping that by getting the bill through they might force some adjoining company to take them and pay the bill of costs, but he hoped that a policy of that kind would be discouraged and dot iscou to let them make be ffi when they were the lines and fight for the tra c made. (Cheers.) tenanced. If the promoters of s uc deputy chairman, Mr. C. A. WOOD, bills he hoped the policy wo uld their motion for the re port. hl P. called attention to th e adow q uestion. He understood th a t th e contrac t between the board and the corporation of O x ford was at the present moment not valid. But Colonel LINDSAY, ~ Cripley-me even if the land were in possession of the company, the only liability would be to pay £ll2 a year. He requested the directors to suspend negotiation on the subject, and in the meantime take into consideration the expediency of abandoning the project altogether. He hoped the directors would consider the liberal proposal which had been made by the corpo ration of Abingdon, which he was authorised to re new. He contended that Cripley-meadow was deci dedly unfit for the erection of any large works upon 1 it, and concluded by moving the suspension of negotiations between the Board and corporation of Oxford. Mr. B. B. WILLIAMS seconded the motion, and stated that he had known Cripley-meadow for the last 40 years, and when he visited Oxford some time ago it was under water, as it usually was for Mr. ADAMS was glad the present chairman had commenced by making no promises. The present dividend was, with one exception, the smallest they had ever received in the second half of the year. They had a most excellent staff of officers, and it was not their fault that the dividends were small. "With 195 bills in Parliament affecting their interests, he thought the best thing would be to but ton up their pockets and allow no expenditure for any purpose whatever. The extension policy bad been tried for 31 years and failed; now let them try for only five years the opposite p - olicy and see if it would succeed. They had now 1,280 miles of rail way, and he thought they should endeavour to get their share of the Irish traffic by opening steam com munication between Milford Haven and the south of Ireland. He believed, if the chairman devoted his talents to the increase of the net profits, the share holders would before long get a dividend that would repay them for the long time they had waited. Mr. GILES said that the narrow gauge was daily becoming more necessary at various places, and un til it was carried out where required he believed they would be liable to attack. He hoped the board would not overlook the vast importance of making a satisfactory communication with South Wales for the development of the coal traffic over their lines, of which they all knew the importance. Mr. WITHERS said, when he first heard of the 2 per cent. dividend, he asked what had become of the increased traffic, but he found that the revenue ac count had been most unusually and exceptionally charged. He did not object to it, but he did not wish it to go forth that their accounts did not stand well. There was £25,000 for accidents, £24,000 for the Shrewsbury lines, and £20,000 on the Vale of Neath account charged against revenue that were excep tional, making together £70,000, which did not be long to the revenue of the half-year. They had car ried over a balance of £12,000, making together £82,000, which under ordinary circumstances would have gone into their pockets, and have given them, with the proposed dividend, 2 per cent. for the half year. Mr. HARPER, one of the auditors, remarked that the statement of Mr. Withers as to the revenue was fair and just. He could assure the proprietors that the accounts had been fully and fairly charged, and were it not for certain exceptional charges, the dividend would have been close upon 24 per cent. This statement was confirmed by Mr. Child, another auditor. The CHAIRMAN said, with regard to the accounts, that a more honest or legitimate statement of ac counts was never put before any body of share sholders. He had had many years' experience of the details of railway accounts, and if anything was to be said about the present accounts, it was tllat they dealt rather hardly with the shareholders. For a period of 27 years the company had been very free from accident until the last few years, and he hoped that freedom from accident would return. Every gentleman would have an opportunity of discussing the question of the workshops, which would depend a great deal on the decision that might be come to with reference to the narrow gauge. _ _ The report of the directors and the statement of accounts were unanimously adopted. The CHAIRMAN then moved that a dividend at the rate of £2 per cent. per annum be declared on. the Great Western Consolidated stock ; a dividend at the rate of 18s. 6d. per cent. per annum on the West Midland (Oxford) stock ; a dividend at the rate of 17s. 6d. per cent. per annum on the West Midland (Newport) stock ; and at the rate of £3 ss. per cent. per annum on the South Wales Consoli dated stock for the half-year ending the 31st of January last, carrying forward a balance of £12,886. Mr. A. C. WOOD seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN said the next business was the re-election of the directors. He would commence by proposing the re-election of Capt. Bulkeley. _ _ _ After some observations by Mr. J. Adams, Mr. J. Parson, Mr. Withers, and Mr. A. C. Wood, who explained that Mr. Gooch had been appointed a director by Sir Watkin W. Wynn kindly exercising that right at the request of directors and proprie tors, The following retiring directors, Capt. Bulkeley, Mr. E. Leaning, Mr. C. R. M. Talbot, M.P., and the Hon. G. Ponsonby, were unanimously re elected. On the motion for the re-election of Mr. E. W. Watkin, M.P., Mr. ADAMS said he would oppose it but on a show of hands he was re-elected almost unani mously, only Mr. Adams dissenting. Mr. C. A. Wood was then unanimously re-elected ; and Mr. Daniel Gooch, M.P., seconded by Mr. Williams, was unanimously elected a director of the company amid loud cheers. The CHAIRMAN, in returning thanks for the kind manner in which the meeting had elected him, said the only drawback was that of displacing Mr. Williams, who had been a most efficient member of the Board, but he was very happy to say the com pany would retain his valuable services on the local committee at Chester.
