This Company is formed for the purpose of executing Public Works in Naples, and will commence operations by constructing a Boulevard, upwards of a mile in length and 80 feet wide, connecting the centre of the city, the Royal Palace, and the Government buildings with the Chiaja, and Corso Victor Emanuel, the chief carriage drive of the Neapolitan people. The entire project is shown on the accompanying plan, where the portion coloured red indi cates the first section of the works, and that coloured blue (for which plans are now being prepared, and arrange ments are in progress with the Municipality) is marked out to be subsequently proceeded with. Naples, the third city in Europe, contains about 600,000 inhabitants, and is rapidly increasing in population and commercial development. It is the port and centre of a population numbering nearly 2,000,000 souls, dwelling within a radius of twenty miles, and is much frequented by foreigners from all parts of the world, both for tempo rary and permanent residence. A tender for this work was made to the Municipality of Naples, in accordance with a decree of expropriation, and having been accepted by them, and approved in due form by the prefect, on behalf of the Government of Italy, the requisite compulsory powers are thus secured for the pur chase and expropriation of the necessary land in fee-simple for the intended object, without delay of other legal forma lities. The Municipality of Naples upon accepting this tender required the usual deposit of caution money, which 'the concessionaire has accordingly paid. The Municipality contributes a subsidy of 1,800,000 f., progressively as the works proceed, Contractors have undertaken to purchase all the land necessary and to complete the construction of the new thoroughfare in the style of the edifices lately erected on the new Boulevards of Paris, including the formation of the road, paving, and works of drainage, &c. The new houses are to be 20 metres high (65 feet), and the total cost for houses, land, &c., amounts to 620 f. (£24165.) per square metre of the area built upon. The contractors relying upon the success of the under taking have accepted these terms, and they look for their remuneration out of a portion of the surplus profits after repayment of capital, interests, and all other expenses. This remuneration has been fixed at one-fourth of the realised profits ; the remaining three-fourths being divisible among the Shareholders. From a report published by the Muncipality of Naples in 1862 on the value of house property there, and from the increase of value since that date, which is estimated by experienced residents at upwards of 30 per cent., the reve nue from rentals would be calculated to yield at least 10 per cent. per annum on the cost of construction. The value of house property in Naples is reported to vary, according to locality, between twenty to twenty-five years' purchase, houses in the Via Toledo being valued at twenty-five years', those in the Chiaja district, and in the vicinity of the new street, at twenty years' purchase. When the proposed Boulevard is opened into the Toledo it is be lieved that these houses will command an equal if not a higher price than those in the Toledo. Taking the value, however, at an average of only twenty years' purchase, each square metre yielding a minimum rental of sixty-five francs, or over 10 per cent. on a cost of 620 francs (£24165.), would attain a selling value of 1,300 francs (X 52). There is alarge and increasing demand for house accom modation in Naples, and house property . being the favourite investment of the Neapolitan people, immediately . houses are completed they find ready purchasers. Indeed, in many cases, contracts. for sale can be made in anticipation of their completion. After a most careful examination of the present project and of all attendant circumstances, it is calculated that a share capital of £600,000, together with the returns from sales, taking place during the progress of the works, will be sufficient to work out the entire concession. And the calculation, founded upon the above stated rates, exhibits as a result—within the term of eight years to be occupied in completing this enterprise—returns, from the disposal of successive portions of the estate, which promise to fur nish at least £5OO in the aggregate of bonuses upon every subscription of £loo—exclusively of the entire repayment of the capital, or, in other words, a capital profit of 500 pet cent. ; with intervening interest at the rates of 5 per cent., 6 per cent., and 10 per cent. as described. The Report of Mr. Burges, the Architect, of London, who was especially . deputed to make investigations on the spot, is referred to in corroboration of the foregoing state ments. A provisional contract has been entered into for the transfer of this Concession to the Company for the sum of £50,000 as the consideration for such transfer. The Company, under their Articles, adopt and confirm the agreements and contracts, and the Directors are en joined to carry out the same, to repay the caution-moneys, discharge the considerations as agreed, and to pay the various expenses and commissions incurred to constitute the Company. The Company indemnify the first contractors in the usual manner, and the Financial Agency Commis sion is fixed not to exceed two per cent., to cover and in clude commissions for acceptance upon bank credits required. Power is reserved in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, which can be seen at the Temporary Offices of the Company, for the Board to enter into engagements for other public works deemed promising by the Directors ; as also to purchase or lease premises for improvements or use, and to create and issue redeemable Debenture Bonds and Deposit Notes, in proportion to the progress of the works, and to the extent of one-half of the value of works completed from time to time. The right is hereby reserved to allottees of Scrip Certi ficates to pay up the full nominal value thereof so that they be convertible into fully paid shares. Deposits upon which no allotments are made will be re turned in full. Prospectuses and all information can be obtained from Messrs. Clench, Smith, and Co., 1, Royal Exchange-build ings and copies of the Articles of Association may also be obtained from the Brokers and Solicitors. THE NAPLES PUBLIC WORKS COMPANY (Limited).

They could do a much larger business if they had sufficient engines and rolling stock. Instead of the receipts being limited to about £30,000 a week, they could now get traffic of £40,000 a week if they had the means to carry it. The gross receipts on all their lines amounted for the half-year to £614,876, the ordi nary working expenses to £397,025, and the net balance to £217,851. They had taken from that £51,535 for renewals of permanent way, and £26,712 for reduction of the renewal suspense ac count, leaving a balance of £139,603. The average receipt per passenger 'in the past half-year was 6s. 3d. per head, as against ss. 10d. per head in 1864, the increase of receipts being for passengers £14,700, or 7.65 per cent., the figures being £207,371 against £192,642. The total receipts for freight had been £403,245 against £386,028 ending June, 1864, showing au increase of £17,217, or 4.46 per cent. The average receipt per ton carried was 16s. 10d. against 14s. 9d. per ton iu the correspond ing half of 1864. The only disagreeable feature was in the working expenses ; they amounted to £397,025 against £360,532, showing an increase of £36,493, or 1012 per cent. Of this increase £26,800 was on the Atlantic and Portland section, £3,400 on the Detroit line, £2,330 on the Champlain ; £3,851 on branch, and £9,232 on the Grand Trunk proper. The latter sum was composed shiefly, of claims "Nrearapdlostion and-fires. With regard to the Atlantic section, they had to pay the same amount of American currency for wages and work that they did when the exchange was 282, while it was now down to 147 ; that was practically an addition to the wages and a higher expense to the company. The company in 1864, by the pur chase of Atlantic and Portland bonds, had made 30,0001., and if they had the means to purchase more of them they might have made 60,0001. At that period they lost nothing by American currency, but in the past half year they had lost 35,0001. by it. He had looked most carefully into the exchange account, and did not think that the officers had missed a chance in the turns of the market in favour of the company. He explained that those losses were chiefly exceptional, arising from the war to some extent on the border. The loss of 7,6001. on the Buffalo was not a decided loss, because it might be recovered in the current half year, as the ac counts with that company were made up at the end of each year. The traffic which passed over some of those leased lines for 140 miles also passed over the Grand Trunk 750 or 760 miles, so they had some thing to set against those losses or apparent losses. The stores, which amounted to 300,0001., were for 1,305 miles of railway ; they consisted of fuel, rails, timber, and fishplates, &c., but those stores would be reduced at the end of the year to 200,0001. They had raised 192,000. in Canadian institutions for the company, which showed they had confidence in the management of the railway, and he hoped that things would go on so well that the company might soon get out of debt and have their securities avail able. They had had large offers of a supply of rolling stock from a company in Scotland, and also from another firm for cars and engines, to pay so much a year for them until the debt wasliquidated. But he considered thatthe best and cheapest way was to pur chase theirown stock from good makers and pay for it at once. He was glad to tell them that the receipts on their line from July Ist to Oct. 28th amounted to £471,877 against £408,740 for the corresponding period of last year, showing an increase of 154 pßr cent., and that the net profits realised on that work ing amounted to £144,182, against £87,741 in the corresponding period last year. It was proposed to complete a line of railway from Halifax to Chicago. There was every probabiay of the international railway being carried out, as it was now believed that the confederation of theßritish Provinces would -be accomplished ; anci itoaras thcl -.doz! -only a nifrttu , -t. of time to make the line from the Grand Trunk Rail way to Halifax, which would open up the coal and mineral districts of New Brunswick en route to Hali fax. At the other end of the line it was proposed to I lay an intermediate line on the railway between Sar- I nia and Buffalo, so as to suite the American gauge, and thus by means of the Port Huron line to com plete the communication with Chicago. They had an offer from persons who would expend £1,000,000 on that line, provided that others on the part of the Grand Trunk Company should find £1,000,000 for rails, &c., and for which those persons would give a mortgage on their property in the new railway. They would recommend the shareholders to give all the assistance they could to that undertaking, and if they were to imagine a Grand Trunk line 2,000 miles in length, with Halifax at one end and Chicago at the other, he would have very little doubt that their progress in the next four years would exceed that of the past four years. There were about 8,000 miles of railway converging on Chicago, and it was so well situated that there was nothing to alter its pros perous position. Those great cities in the West were increasing immensely, and he believed the West was now in a sounder condition than ever it was. They had made an agreement with the Erie and Niagara Railway Company, and also one for the construction of the great international bridge between Fort Erie and Buffalo, which would enable them to work the line toNiagara. As regarded the arrangement for the bridge, it included seven miles of railway, and they were asked to pay £lO,OOO a year for their share of the expense, by which they would be enabled to ex change their traffic with the New York and Erie Railway. The company at present paid £6,000 a year for carrying the traffic across on a steam plat form, and the question was whether the difference between £6,000 and £lO,OOO would not be readily made up by the facilities an unbroken line would afford over the international bridge. Buffalo had a very large grain trade, a great number of ships, and 48,000 men were employed in that trade. As the documents were not ready with regard to the bridge, that agreement would not be submitted at present. He then advocated the policy of using the available means of the company for a short time longer in providing additional rolling-stock, sidings, ware houses, and the necessary machinery for the de velopment and accommodation of the increasing traffic. This policy had already been adopted to a great extent, and when they had power to carry the whole of the traffic that came to them, and were out of debt, the profits would be henceforward available to pay the preference interest as far it would go. With regard to the Reciprocity Treaty he had been asked to say something. There was a total of £4,000,000 in produce sent to the United States from Canada, and the latter received from the United States a like amount, so that the advantages were mutual, and neither side ought to disturb it. But should the treaty not be renewed, and the trade be diverted from theUnitedStates to England, it would have a beneficial effect on the Grand Trunk Rail way, and would not injure Canada to the extent some politicians supposed. It was desirable that a friendly intercourse should exist between Canada and the United States, and for that reason he hoped the Reciprocity Treaty would be renewed. Sir R. JARVIS thought it would be much better to charge to capital what belonged to capital than ofto take the whole of the charg e for renewals out revenue, He did not like to see the net revenue expended on permanent works which were to benefit the next generation at the cost of the present. Mr. CREAK said they were told a few years ago that £70,000 a year would be sufficient for re newals ; but they had spent more than double that sum in the last year for that purpose. He hoped they would clear off the renewal fund in the current half-year, and endeavour to have some balance to pay the bondholders in future half-years. Mr. MERCER was disposed to support the directors to the fullest extent ; but he represented some first and second class bondholders on that occasion, who were very much dissatisfied with the disposal of the net revenue. They were paid their interest in bonds at par, which would not realise more than 67, He 2 L~G~~ r„ ~_ A a..#. x.e t _ , _ F - thought the renewals ough :ttil3,q,, „Trer tar 4 seven years, instead of be ig possible. Mr. llAnTranar believed th anal - lent Act enabled thedirecto r s t o a pp ro p ria t e the earnings of the line to capital purposes ; at the same time he thought some compensation should be given to those who had to take bonds instead of money for.Aski t interest. Mr. LAKE thought they ought to get out of debt as soon as possible, and there would then be some thing for the bondholders. When the international bridge was completed he thought the bondholders would find they had a very good investment. Mr. ADAMS considered that the increase of traffic was enormous, and that if they would only expend what was actually necessary to carry on the traffic they Sir nh o h N atie ,E d T i o Vi s c a k i l a ld i s l e f or hat t i h i e u s b t o d et l i t tr ol i c l l e e ( r i s. from Canada, and wa s one o f the largest shareholders i t a t il he g o on r c ea o t v l e l r_ e t a h t e er t i l l i o p f le c of the in t il h a e e. c lle n d ot parry. I i t ' e t a l was in a most . efficient state.- About r 8 per cent. of _ the Grand Trunk line. lied been renewed and finished, and was hi as good condition as the Great Western of Canada. The re-sleepered portion of the Grand Trunk was fully equal to the average of American lines. Their policy should be to put the line in the most efficient state and keep it up fully to that standard. He had spoken to nearly all the heads of departments on the Grand Trunk line, and they were of opinion that the rolling stock was in sufficient, as they were only able to carry 60 per Cent. of the traffic. It was impossible for the com pany to stand still under such circumstances. They should provide an ample supply of the best rolling stock, proper sidings and stations, and everything requisite for the traffic, as the Atlantic Great Western next ear would form a junction with their line. '• • sett - there tax. waithil; to be conveyed from the oil district. lle was pre pared to enter into au agreement with them for carrying the oil traffic over the Grand Trunk at double the average price charged on theie line. With regard to providing sufficient rolling stock, they should subscribe the money among them. He, for one, would advance £25,000 or £30,000 for that purpose ; if they provided the necessary plant their troubles would be at an end, and he believed it would be one of the most prosperous undertakings on either side of the water. The CIIAIRMAN said if the bondholders would only have patience they would soon be satisfied that thebest had been done under the circumstances. If they did not provide the necessary additional capi tal in some shape the traffic must remain stationary. They must first get out of debt, get sufficient capi tal to provide what was requisite for the traffic, and they could divide the profits every half-year. He believed that from and after December next every thing that arose in the shape of profit would be available. 'a The report was then adopted, and the meeting was made special, and the agreement with the Erie and. Niagara Company was approved. The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. CALCUTTA AND SOUTH-EASTERN. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at the offices, Gresham-house ; Mr. J. J. Borradaile in the chair. The report stated that the quantity of goods car ried over the line had been double that carried in the corresponding period of last year. The passen ger traffic showed a small decrease in the number of the lower class, to the extent of about 2 per cent., but a considerable increase of returns. The resort of shipping to the port had also contributed to in crease the first-class passenger traffic to the extent of more than 100 per cent. To provide for the complete equipment of the line, as regards both warehouse room and rolling stock, the directors had obtained the approval of the Secretary of State for India to raise the additional sum of £lOO,OOO on debentures of the company issued for a period of five years, bearing guaranteed interest at the rate of 3 per cent., and convertible into guaranteed stock. The CHAIRNIAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said the Uanning Company were making 7siiiiStictory Ai' r; Ili gel, to II ts f o elli - eltimiiiii-Vra rf age during the cold season. - Ile believed that some of the coasting steamers on their return voyage to Cal cutta would be ordered to proceed to the Mutlah and take up their quarters there, andy facilities were afforded by the company a continuous line ef steamers would run to the port. Considerable in crease had taken place in the traffic, but difficulty had been experienced in finding sufficient stock to carry it on. Additional rolling stock was,however, on its way out, and he had no doubt but that the want would in the meantime be supplied by the East Indian Railway Company. Notwithstanding the increase in the receipts, the traffic was working at a small loss. Mr. MARSH MAN seconded the motion, and the report was adopted. In reply to a question, it was stated that the bridge to connect their line with the East Indian Railway at the other side of the Hooghly had not been decided on. A vote of thanks to the chairman and directors concluded the proceedings. HULL AND HORNSEA. On Wednesday an adjourned meeting was held at Hull, Mr. J. A. Wade in the chair. Mr. Alderman LUMSDEN read the report of the committee, which stated that negotiations had re sulted in the North-Eastern Company accepting the proposition ,to take the line, with the exception of two conditions—viz., that they would not provide f u nds to meet the liabilities of the Hull and Horn sea Company, nor would they allow that company a separate representation. Having assisted in these negotiations, the committee devoted itself to the causes of the excessive expenditure in the construction of the line. It was found that the line was to be constructed for £70,000, but the actual cost had been nearly double. The contractor's bill showed a gross expen diture of £51,000, whereas the estimate was only a little over £25,000. The estimate for the land was £9,500, but the actual cost was £21,000. Thevarious stations were estimated to cost £3,800, but the actual expenditureunder this head reached £11,330. Some thing of the excessive expenditure was due to un foreseen difficulties. They considered that the in terests of the company had suffered by a want of unanimity and cordiality among the directors, which still existed. The report was unanimously adopted.

JDEFRIES and SONS, • 16 and 17, COMMERCIAL-STREET. GRAND TRUNK OF CANADA. The half-yearly general meeting of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. E. Watkin, M.P., in the chair. Mr. J. M. Grant, the secretary, having read the notice convening the meeting, the report, an abstract of which has appeared in The Sun, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, explained the reason why the meeting had been held so late in the year. He had been induced to visit Canada to inspect the company's property there and make some arrangements in their inte rests. He had also obtained a certain amount of additional information that he would not have had for them if the meeting had been held at an earlier period. He had information as to their progress up to the 28th of Oct. The last statement of weekly traffic they had received was up to 12th of Nov. It showed that the receiptsamounted to £30,829, being an increase over £9,000 over the correspondingiveek in November, 1864, and was therefore satisfactory. In the early part of the year ending the 30th June the war in America was going on, Canada assumed a state of defence, raids were being made on her border, and pickets were to banaleen there in many places. The effect was topyso business and lead people to restrict operations, so that they must consider the traffic during that period as exceptional. lie then reviewed the position of the company's affairs during the past four years. For two years of that t i me Canada had a Government that trampled on all obligations, and was not disposed to keep good faith with the company. They had had bad or indifferent harvests, and the war in America had the effect of disturbing every operation. They had passed through that ordeal, and Canada had now a Govern ment which would do their duty to the country and deal fairly with the company. They had settled that long standing question the postal subsidy, and there was now a disposition to do business. He thought the late excitement would subside, and they would soon be in a state to attract emigration. The shareholders ought to be thankful to Provi dence that the war was at an end. Trade had shown a wonderful revival. The state of things five years ago was very different from what it was at present. The net receipts of the company then amounted to only £72,000 ; while they would amount at the end of this year to about £400,000. The permanent way was at that time in a very defective state, but they had since renewed 500 miles of the permanentway in a superior manner, and re-sleeped Now ready, at all the Libraries, in 3 vols., O, THE BEAUTY OF MAYENCE.
