Mr. JEREMIAH PILCHARD proposed a vote of thanks to the Earl of Shaftesbury, which was seconded by Mr. Jorcx WGREGOB, and carried with enthusiasm. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY, in returning thanks, said they proposed that the ship should be managed by a dis tinct committee, though it would be in connection with the refugee.

Arrangements have been made under which the Borough goods traffic of the Great Northern will be carried on at the Blackfriars station ; goods and coal trains have com menced running this month. A few of the London, Chatham, and Dover main line trains now run also to and from King's-cuts, and in a few months similar facilities will bo enjoyed by the Metropolitan Extension trains. Tho London and South-Western intends to commence running trains via Clapham Junction to Ludgate next month. The share of the London, Chatham, and Dover in the Conti nental traffic arrangement concluded with the South- Eastern will also this year (if continued) prove more ad vantageous to the former; and, considering, apparently, that they have now surmounted their chief difficulties, the directors of the London, Chatham, and Dover have de posited bill s this session for a new line i n the d i strict lying betw een th e El ep h an t an d C ast l e, K enn i ng t on „ Clapham, Bromley, W est Wickham, and Farnborough ; and a new Streatheam, and Brixton-hill ; a line between line direct from Beckenham, via Lewes, to Brighton. What may be th e lot reserved for the London, Chatham, and Dover, it is impossible at present to say. It is not until 1866, 1867, and possibly also 1868 have run their course that we shall be able to form any definite idea of the traffic powers of the undertaking. That the concern has been developed with unprecedented recklessness, few will ven ture to deny. Without a shilling of dividend being avail able for their Ordinary or Preference shareholders, the di rectors have plunged during the last five years into Metro politan Extensions involving an outlay of £6,000,000. Such a proceeding is unpavalleled, we believe, in our rail way annals. It can only be hoped, as was observed a month or so since, that matters will " shake down some how," and that the enormous ebb and flow of life in Lon don will save the directors from a 'reputation for irretriev ferential, from bitter disappointment! able rashness,- and the shareholders, : :ordi liary tui.4.3p MUTUAL LOAN FUND ASSOCIATION (Incorporated by Act of Parliament, 1850), 14, IZ IJSSELL-STREET, COVENT-GARDEN, LONDON.

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 Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans 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 Ile required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is propcsed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor tamilies 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. SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT, D.D., No. 22, Finsbury-circus, E.C. DONORS AND SUBSCRIBERS TO THE ,REFUGE.

TEETH AND PAINLESS DENTISTRY.- The fear of pain and dread of operation inherent to all deter very many to whom ARTIFICIAL TEETH are of vital importance from availing themselves of the services of a dentist. In a practice founded in 1830, and now ex. ending over greater part of the kingdom, an experience unequalled has been obtained, enabling us to offer even the most sensi tive sufferer a system of dentistry perfect in its absolute freedom from pain. a speeitlite tiertaining only to our prac tice, and for which her Majesty has granted her royal letters patent. This system embraces the non-interference with all stumps. however decayed, the supporting instead of extrac tion of loose teeth until they become firm and useful in mas tication, and the utter absence of all and every operation, so that the most nervous person can be supplied without fear of pain or inconvenience. These teeth are cheaper, more dur able, natural, and comfortable than any yet produced. Consultation free. Teeth from ss. sets from bto 25 gs., warranted.

It remains now for us to show the pro gress made in the development of traffic upon the under taking, as the shareholders must begin to think it high time that some return upon their investment should ap pear. The profits realised and the working expenses in curred would seem to have been as follows in the years 1863, 1864, and 1865 : Year. Receipts. Expenses. - Profits. 1863 ... £213,051 £170,638 , £72,913 1864 ... 378,952 ... 224,341 ... 154,611 1865 ... 469,256 275,298 ... 193,958 The traffic throughout 1865 was carried on, it should ho observed, under certain disadvantages. The extent of the line in operation December 31, 1863, was returned at 125 miles ; December 31, 1864, at 127. miles ; . and December 31, 1865, at 1271 miles. In the current. month—March, 1866,—this mileage appears to have been further increased to 1341 miles. The traffic receipts for the current year promise to range between £550,000 and £600,000 ; and if working expenses can be reduced to, say, 55 per cent., the profits realised in 1866 will bo carried to from £310,000 to £320,000. These figures are, of course, to some extent conjectural, and perhaps the increased facilities recently obtained for the development of traffic through the city may lead to a still larger augmentation in the receipts than we suppose. On the other hand, the competition of the South-Eastern will also become more effective by means of that company's extensions to Charing-cross and Cannon street; and as rivalry between the South-Eastern and the London, Chatham, and Dover is not altogether at an end— although the present South-Eastern Board has drifted into something like an alliance with its quondam foe upon many points—the working expenses may not improbably exceed 55 per cent. In 1863 the ratio of these expenses to the receipts was 70 per cent. ; in 1864 59 per cent.; and and in 1865, 581 per cent. It will be something, then, if the ratio is reduced to 55 per cent this year. If we take the profits of the London, Chatham,- and Dover and its allies for 1866 at £320,000, we shall find that, after allow ing £220,000 for debenture interest (without taking ac count of temporary loans), there is only £lOO,OOO at the best available for distribution on a share capital—at any rate, a nominal share capital—of some £10,000,000, or about 1 per cent. all round. It is almost imiressible to analyse over again the position of all the stocks in this extraor dinary concern. _ The reader curious in such matters must be referred to an article which detailed the company's fi nancial powers and position up to Juno 30, 1865, which was published in the Times of February 12, 1866. The data given on February 12 may be accepted as substantially ap plicable to the present date, although the amount of capital raised at the close of 1865 was set down at £13,626,620, while six months previously it was returned at £12,688,830. Of the £13,626,620 stated to have been raised December 31, 1865, £4,907,644 belonged to the ge neral undertaking £6,183,556 to the Metropolitan Exten sions, £470,718 to the Victoria-station improvements, £1,125,148 to the city lines, and £939,554 to the Eastern section (Peckham to Greenwich, &c.) Of the £13,626,620 raised, it should also be stated that about £4,060,000 was obtained by debentures, the average charge of which has been calculated in the speculatiens indulged in above at 51 per cent. per annum for 1866, although this amount should be, perhaps, increased, having reference to the present dearness of capital, and the fact that a furtherissue of these securities will probably be attempted in the course of the year. It has also been assumed that Vie rough revenue of 1866 will be £s7s,ooo—that is, nearly £2,000 per week more than in 1865. The calculation has been made to show that the general result of the operations of the company thus far has been to secure upon the entire share capital an average return of about 1 :per cent. per annum,—a return which would probably be materially reduced so far as regards 1866 by rent charges, interest on temporaryloans, payment to affiliated companies, &c. We admit, however, that the figures are of no great value, as for revenue purposes the accounts of the metropolitan and other extensions are kept distinct from those of the general undertaking. Of the whole profit of 4193,958 realised in 1865, £125,680 accrued upon the general undertaking, while the charge for deben ture interest last year on the general undertaking account was about £90,000, so that here again we arrive at a return of 1 per cent. being subject to deduction in respect to rent charges, interest on temporary loans, payments to affiliated companies, &c. As regards the Metropolitan Extensions account, the contractors—in accordance with a dubious policy which renders them the virtual masters of the whole concern--guarantee interest upon the B and o_preferences up tv 21, IS2gC, splaol, will 41...,..1.a.va to Era as best they may, although a golden future is still affirmed to be in store for them. r But, without endeavouring to peer too much into the future-without remarking upon the strange fact that the Great Eastern. which can still meet all its preference obli gations, comes in for a largo measure of public ridicule while the London, Chatham, and Dover escapes nearly scot-free--let us examine a little more closely the progress of the traffic upon the general undertaking, and also upon the Metropolitan Extension. The gross receipts of the general undertaking in the half-year ending June 30, 1863, were £82,318 ; in the half-year ending December 31, 1863, £136,551; in the half-year ending June 30, 1864, £125,207 ; in the half-year ending December 31, 1864, £182,219 ; in the half-year ending June 30, 1865, £116,619 ; and in the half-year ending December 31, 1865, £206,116. if we compare 1865 with 1863 we thus see progress to the extent of £133,866. This at first sight appears highly encourag ing, but from the heaviness of the working charges, a large proportion of the additional receipts was absorbed in augmented current expenditure. The receipts of the Me tropolitan Extensions for the half-year ending June 30, 1863, were £10,105 ; for the half-year ending Dec. 31, 1863, £30,928 ; for the half year ending June 30, 1864, £31,355 ; for the half year ending Dec. 31, 1864, £47,924; for the half year ending June 30, 1865, £51,503 ; and for the half year ending Dec. 31, 1865, £62,876. On comparing 1865 with 1863, we thus see progress to the extent of £73,346 ; this result was not, however, attained without additions to mileage and largely increased working expenses. Still the profits realised upon the Metropolitan Extensions dur ing 1865 were returned at £57,190, which would rather more than half meet the charge of the debenture service, which must have been close upon £lOO,OOO for the year. It seems almost useless in the present transition stage of the undertaking to go into any elaborate details as to the traffic results of 1865. It may be remarked, however, that the number of passengers carried in that year was 9,241,421 (721,257 first-class, 1,242,651 second-class, and 7,277,513 third-class), against 7,264,774 in 1864. Of 2,901,110 passengers carried in the half year ending June 30, 1864, 2,202,005 passed over the Metropolitan Exten sions ; of 4,363,664 carried in the half year ending Dec.3l, 1864, 3,349,556 passed over the Metropolitan Extensions; of 4,118,383 carried in the half year ending June 30, 1865, 3,322,009 passed over the Metropolitan Extensions, and of 5,123,038 carried in the half year ending Dec. 31, 1865, 3,976,168 passed over the Metropolitan Extensions. Thus of a total of 16,506,195 passengers conveyed during 1864 and 1865, the Metropolitan Extensions supplied 12,849,688. This vast movement of human life was made up thus :- Half-year (ruling First-class. Second-class. Third-class. June 30, 1864 208,381 373,468 ... 1,620,136 Dec. 31, 1864 ... 240,736 ... 585,931 2,522,869 June 30, 1865 287,855 469,187 ... 2,564,937 Dec. 31, 1865 ... 317,705 ... 515,236 ... 3,143,227 The number of first-class passengers carried on the Metro politan Extensions in the two years was thus 1,054,677 ; of second-class, 1,943,822 ; and of third-class, 9,851,189. The enormous third-class traffic already developed is attribut able to the adoption of an excellent system of workmen's trains, which will doubtless be followed by all great railway companies having termini in the metropolis. Of the whole £469,256 earned by the company's general undertaking and Metropolitan Extensions in 1865, £372,827 was derived from passengers, the movement of goods, &c., upon the system being at present only feeble. The rolling stock on the system, Dec. 31, 1865, comprised 91 locomotives (74 passenger and 17 goods), one Royal saloon carriage, 104 first-class carriages, 123 second-class carriages, 209 third class carriages, 28 composite carriages, 36 break-vans, 3 smoking saloons, 20 horseboxes, 22 carriage trucks, one lamp carriage, 12 road van trucks, 34 goods break-vans, 200 high-sided trucks, 401 lew-sided trucks, 24 timber trucks, 200 coal trucks, 12 coke trucks, 31 box trucks, 46 cattle trucks, and 40 ballast waggons. Considerable as this stock of plant may appear, it must be considerably in creased if the company is ever to accommodate a traffic calculated to pay a remunerative interest on the very large amount of capital already raised. As regards the progress of works on hand, it may be stated that the additional lines between Loughborough Junction and the Elephant and Castle, a distance of 1 mile 65 chains, have been passed by the Board of Trade. There are already four lines between Charlotte-street and Blackfriars, a dis tance of 25 chains. The intermediate portion between the Elephant Castle and Charlotte-street, a distance of 60 chains, is expected to be completed by May 1. The pos session of four lines between Loughborough and Ludgate will enable increased traffic facilities to and from the city to be extended to Clapham, Brixton, Camberwell, and Walworth. On the west-end section the construction of of additional lines is being actively pushed forward. Victoria out of four lines over the Thames bridge and intoodonthis are expected to be ready for traffic in June, an d result being attained it is believed that important and im mediate relief will be secured to the trafficofthe system. The " linkline" connecting the London, wholeChatham, Great Northern and Dover with the Metropolitan antd was opened in January 1; the G L rea and only awaits ,t,to,orthern, as a tern porory measure, runs trains to dg the completion of the widenings south of the river to con _ time goo touts to yiotpria and the Crystal Palm. The annual meeting of the subscribers and friends of this institution was held yesterday at Willis's Rooms—the Earl of Shaftesbury in the chair. The large room was well filled, and among those on the platform were the Marquis Townshend, the Earl of Ducie, Lord Henry G. Lennox, Lieutenant-General Thurburn, Dr. Cross, Dr. Phillips, the Rev. Mr. Stone, Mr. R. Trotter, Mr. Joseph Payne (de puty judge), Mr. John M'Gregor, Mr. James Monteith, and a large number of other gentlemen. The proceedings commenced with prayer, and the sing ing of hymns by the children from the refuges, 200 of whom were present. Their appearance and conduct were highly creditable to the managers of the schools. From the report read by Mr. WIELIAms, it appeared that there had been in the boys' refuge at the end of 1864, 109 boys, and that 102 had been admitted during the year 1865. Of these 53 had emigrated and 26 had obtained situa tions ; and there were on the 31st December, 1865, 104 in the refuge. It had been found, by tracing the careers of those who had left the institution, that they had generally turned out well, failures being very exceptional. The boys in the refuge were warmly clad, and had three meals daily. They were taught reading, writing, and arithmetic, cooked their own food, and made their own beds ; cleaned their rooms, &c., and were taught carpentering, firewood-chopping, shoemaking, and tailoring. They made their own clothes and boots, as well as the boots tor the girls' refuge. The staff employed consisted of the superintendent, Mr. Wood, and the matron, besides four shoemakers, one tailor, and one carpenter. The work done for the year 1865, including £366 the value of work for the institution, amounted to £937 ; 2,115 pairs of new boots had been made, 1,790 pairs had been mended, and 859 now garments had also been turned out, while the firewood split had amounted to 23,995 bundles. Each of the girls' refuges would contain 40 inmates, and there the girls were provided for, and in structed in household work, and in washing. They made and mended their own clothes, and the shirts, &c., of the boys, and washed about 100 dozen of clothes weekly. There had been 71 girls in the refuges at the end of 1864, and 54 had been admitted during the year 1865 ; 29 of these had gone to service during that year, and 16 had returned to their friends, and there were in the institution on Dec. 31 last 73 inmates. A very interesting circumstance had oc curred during the year. Several of the girls who had ob tained situations, having been invited to tea by Miss Dick son, the matron, expressed a wish to do something to tes tify their appreciation of the benefits they had received from the committee. They purchased, by subscription, a black marble timepiece for the board-room, on which they placed a suitable inscription,.and presented it to the com mittee. The balance in hank December, 1864, had been .c.iloom nu,; a legacy had been - received-frv..-4).,4-12.- Magenis, £2OO ; total receipts from all other sources, £4,138 7s. 7d. ; the total expenditure had been £4,630 155.; leaving a balance on Dec. 31, 1865, of £2lB 2s. 6d. The noble CHAIRMAN said this was not an ordinary an niversary meeting. There was a new proposition to come before the meeting for a scheme which he believed would be really efficient for the purpose which it was desired to carry out. The attempt to improve those children was more than hopeful. Experienc e showed that failures and disappointments were so few that they might say everyfar thing expended was productive of rich fruit. The secretary had read the report, and referred to the gratifying results ; but he had not told them what was the fact, that for these good results they were really under God indebted to the zeal, intelligence, and activity of Mr. Williams. They had probably most of them heard of the supper which was given last February to a number of homeless boys. Only about 150 of them came ; and when he asked some of them why more had not come, one said "they thought it was a trap; some had come to the window and looked in, but went away again." Another said "they thought they should have had lots of jaw and nothing to eat." They had plenty to eat and very little jaw, and when he questioned them after supper—for nothing could be done before—they answered his questions freely and truth fully. They all expressed a desire to learn and improve. On the next day about 50 of those boys presented them selves, and were admitted to the refuge, and these 50 had been in the refuge since the 16th February last. He could speak from his own observation, for he had been there two cr three times a week, and he could say that their conduct was so remarkable that ho would not have believed that such a condition of things could have taken place. Some of these boys had not lain in a bed for four years, and had lived about the streets how they could, yet there was no foul language to be heard, and there was no quarrelling among them. Three days after their admission Mr. Wood, the superintendent, was confined to his bed by pleurisy, and 180 boys were loft to their own management and con trol. He found the greatest order prevailing—the boys re gularly working, and going by turns to the schoolmaster, not a single disturbance occurring. He put them upon their honour to do their duty, and they did it. This was an indication of the hopeful character of the class. They had all read the story of the night in the casual ward, and about a boy called Punch who figured in it. Punch was in the refuge—a boy of remarkable ability and remarkable diligence. He said to him, "Punch, my boy"— (laughter) —" set a good example." He had promised to do so, and so far kept his word. Mr. Williams would corroborate his account of the conduct of these boys. Now they wanted to take in a larger number of the homeless boys. Some persons thought the certified schools might be used, but they did not like to go to a magistrate in order to have the boys committed to the schools. One important feature in the homes was that the boys went there of their own free will, and the great secret of their obedience was its voluntary character. The Marine Society had been spoken of, but their conditions were unsuited to these boys. One of them was the production of a certificate of the death of the father. Many of these boys did not know where or when they had lost their fathers. They scarcely had time, and certainly had not money, to pro cure such certificates. The Government was willing to give a ship to be moored in the Thames, but they must find the money to fit her up. The employment of a ship pre sented many advantages. They could better secure isola tion than in the city. The boys would be in a better atmosphere than that of some of the fetid localities where they should seek accommodation ashore. The boys be trained for the royal navy or the merchant service, and it was a curious fact that five-sixths of these boys haudlda desire for the sea. To fit up the ship, about £3,000 wo uld uld could be required, and he calculated that by its aid th t e he c y ountry turn out about 200 boys annually, and re an individual, but The sum required might seem largo ivhtoole c ountry it was a of 400 of those who might otherwise help thoevfiell our gaols. e when considered in reference telt() d ha b t y would be mere nothing.

He had known the a ppoinown the re fugesand could testify for many years, to the amount of good done by them. Judge PAYNE seconded the motion. After the resolution had been duly put and carried, Mr. FlTzwuxuas moved the second resolution to the effect that further efforts were needed in order to reclaim a larger number of the homeless children. Mr. FonnuAm, in seconding the resolution, observed that the plan was no longer an experiment, but they might fairly calculate on as good results from future efforts as had been hitherto obtained.
