Last night the Worshipful Master and Wardens of the Mercers' - Company entertained the Earl of Kimberley (the late Lord Lieutenant of Ireland) and a number of gentlemen at dinner, on the occa sion of the complotion of the audit of the Irish estates of the company. The Master (Mr. Watson) occupied the chair, and was suppertcd l y the Right Hon. the Earl of Kimberley, Alderman Rose, Alderman Gibbon, Capt. Dawson, M.P., the Masters of the Borderers', the Cooks', the ,Masons', and the Fruiterers' Com panies, Mr. Burkett, deputy governor of the Irish Society, Sir F. Currie, Bart., Mr. Deputy White, Mr. Gurdon Clarke, the Rev. Canon Blakesly, the Rev. Mr. Barnard, renters, and house-wardens, &c. The dinner was served in excellent style by the house-wardens, and the wines were of a very supe rior description. On the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN gave the toasts of " The Queen," the " Prince and Princess of Wales and the reit of the Royal Family," which were enthusiastically responded to by the company. The next toast was - the " Army, Navy, and Vo lunteers," which was resipnded to on behalf of the army by Capt.`REFL YATES, who observed that the English nation- i&alWays manifested a good deal of jealousy with - Wipe& to the maintenance of a standing army, and hi* its establishment, in the reign of Williarn Itr;i4V•The present time, the House of Commons had, by means of the Mutiny Act, maintained its control of the force. At the same time the services rendered by the military force to the country were very great, and were, he was glad to say, cordially acknowledged in all assemblies of Englishmen. He believed that, as a general rule, the officers of the army were animated by feelings of honour, and although their conduct was occasion ally open to criticism, as in.the case of the Jamaica affair, he thought that any errors they committed were attributable rather to a desire to perform their duty promptly, faithfully, and energetically, than to any feeling of deliberate malice, as had been in that case charged against them. (Cheers.) Captain ROBERTSON responded to the toast on behalf of the navy, and Captain PALMER on that of the volunteers, the latter gentleman mentioning the fact that he was one of the old body of volunteers organised in the reign of George 111. He paid a high tribute to the discipline of the present force, and expressed a confident hope that, in the event of its being called upon for active service; it would be fotind-very efficient. The -CHAIRMAN next proposed " The House of Lords," coupling with the toast .the name of the Earl of Kimberley, which was received with loud cheers. He dwelt upon the services which that noble earl had rendered to the country in the capacity of Viceroy under the late Ministry, and-also upon the ability he had shown as the representative of her Ma jestyat- the Court of Russia. When Viceroy of Ire- - land he exerted himself vigorously to put'down the wretched delusion of Fenianistn, which, although, in no way; dangerous to the stability of any Govern mont,i Whig or Tory, was yet iu its nature harass ing to thO'powers that be, and totally destructive of all attempts to improve the condition of the people of the country. The administration of 'Lord Wode house worked alike with ability and success; and that nobleman had merited the hcinour - conferred on him by the Crown, and would be mentioned in history as one of - the few men who had -adminiStered Irish affait:s . withstiecs. The Earl of KIMRERLEY, on rising to respond, was received With / Peers. Ile thanked them first chi _ for drinking the health of the house of which he was. a member. The mention of the House of I,Ord,i was always received with favour in every assembly_of EggliSh gentlemen, because they were well aware that it was an institution which formed a most important element in the con stitution of the State, and he believed that they .had always conducted themselves in sach a manner as to merit the approbation of the country. (Cheers.) Whatever changes might be necessary in the House of Commons, it was agreed that the functions of the House of Lords were well performed, and that the House of Lords might always form an important part of the constitution of the country. (Cheers.) When he held the office of lord lieutenant he tried all be could to hold the scales of justice evenly, and, though a member of the great Liberal party, never forgot that, as viceroy, it was his duty, as the head of the Executive Government, to mete out the most even-handed justice. (Cheers.) During his term of office he had to perform the painful duty of arresting and imprisoning individuals charged with participation in the Fenian conspiracy who had not the ordinary resource conferred upon them by the common law of the land of demanding to be taken before a magistrate and openly accused. At the same time he took credit for the utmost impar tiality is the administration of justice, and he be lieved in his conscience that the Irish Government, at all events during the time he had the- direction of affairs, had not imprisoned a single individual against whom the.. strongest grounds of suspiciat did not exist. He was rejoiced to see the same policy which had been pursued by the late Govern ment was continued by the present, and consider ing the utter folly of. the Fenian outbreak, and how impossible it was that it could ever hope for suc nees, he thought they would hear no more of such ridiculous outbreaks as that which had recently taken place in Kerry. At the same time there was no doubt that the continued existence of this Fenian conspiracy greatly harassed the Irish Government an d almost put an end to those reforms from which alone that country could expect to enjoy pros perity. The country has been slowly and gra dually advancing during the last few years, and had it not been for this blight of Fenianism it would ere this have made a most decided pro gress. (Cheers.) He could speak with certainty of the extraordinary effect which the Fenian move ment had upon the fortunes of Ireland, because he knew of his own knowledge that certain manufac turers who had intended to expend a large amount of capital in Ireland and to employ many men, bad been completely driven away from the country in conseauence of this conspiracy. (Hear, hear.) He quite admitted that for many years emigration to a considerable extent had been going on in Ireland, but at the same time there were persons who did not look upon that emigration, which to some extent was the fruit of the famine of 1847, as an unmixed evil, because it certainly afforded a larger scope of employment in manufactures for those who remained, and there certainly was no reason why the Irish people should remain dependent for their support entirely upon agricultural employments. He was quite convinced that the return of confidence and order in Ireland would be followed by the prosperity of the country ; but so long as it was affected by these periodical outbreaks it was quite in vain to ex pect that people would employ either capital or labour on a large scale in the improvement of the country. He could hardly dignify these disturbances by the name of conspiracies, because it was impos sible for the disturbers of the public peace to make any headway against a Government so powerful as the Government of this country, and he sincerely trusted that these misguided men would be speedily brought to see the uselessness, as well as the wicked ness, of their proceedings, and no longerretard their country in the race of civilisation. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed " The House of Commons," which was responded to by Captain DAWSON, M.P., who also spoke pretty much in the same strain of Fenianism as the noble earl, and stated that it gave hina great satisfaction to find from a conversation which he had had with the lord lieutenant, that the county of Derry, which he re presented, and in which the estates of this company were situated, was entirely free from this dis loyal taint. (Cheers.) So far from despairing of the country, he believed that a new era was approaching, in which Fenianiam would die c3mpletely out, the various resources of the country be economised, and happiness and content ment reign where there was tow nothing but dis ecutent, and misery. The health of the Worshipful Master was pro posed by the Earl of Kimberley, and cordially drunk. The Master respinded, and the toasts of ".The Masters of the Borderers',-and Masons' Com panies" (all of which companies are interested in Irish estates) having been given and responded to, other toasts were given, and the proceedings did not terminate till a late hour. The musical arrangements, under the management of Mr. Lawler—the vocalists being Aldine. Louise Vining, Mdme. Patey-Whytock, Mr. Wilbyc Cooper, and Mr. Lawler—were very good. Mr. E. Roberts performed upon the harp, and Mr. S. Naylor pre sided at the pianoforte. Atlantic and Gre It Western Railway. ~-- An elaborate report, signed by Mr. M'Henry, the financial agent of this company in England, was issued yesterday to the bond, debenture, and share holclers of this company in anticipation of the ingot , ing of Tuesday. It states that he has to present the annual report of the president of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway, ending Oct. 31, 1865, and goes on to say, " at the dose of 1865 a large expen diture was undertaken with a view to finishing the works complete during ...1866, and from the end of. October up to May over £600,000 - *as remitted from London for that purpose ; but the severity of the panic, and the successful efforts at discrediting the company, caused . a suspension of these remit tances, leaving a I:rgeamount of work partially done, and many contracts only partially fulfilled. This seriously inconvenienced the company in Ame rica. The scandalous warfare against the credit of the company commeneectin England early in 1866, and has been coutinueclwitha malicious persistency unparalleled in the history of industrial enter prises, btit too late to be successful ; a railway once fairly established commands a return of con fidence by an= increasing revenue, and cannot be hunted down like a credit institution." After allud ing at some length to the attacks made on the company the writer proceeds :—At this time the coupons on the consolidated bonds, due on Jan. 15, were advertised to be paid, and I had arranged for temporary limns of money for that purpose, in an ticipation of remittances-from America. But I re ceived a resolution' of - the executive committee, which deterniined me to suspend the payment of coupons,.. and to issue a circular explaining the cause. The coupons remaining unpaid will, of course, receive the_ first attention of the company on its regaining sufficient strength. It appeared to me now high time tliat those largely' interested in the success of the railway - should investigate foT them selves its position, and justify- or condemn my ad ministration of its affairs in this country. I offered to place all hooks and vouchers at the .disposal of an independent committee —this committee has been appointed, but up to this moment I liave .not heard that they:have - advanced so far as to elect a chair man. The financial position of the company is as follows :—Consolidated and divisional bonds, $30,000,000, or £600,000 ; certificates of deben ture issued in Notember, 1864, £2,800,000 ; and an open debt in Europe, estimated at £2,000,000, but which will be .reduced considerably on settlement of the exactatnotults. In order to meet this open debt, iu July last it was resolved to . issue certificates of indebtedness, having live years to run; and receive in exchange for Item at par other obligations of the company held-by the parties interested ; and, as a basis, shares at par were deposited with trustees, the id,a being that daring the five years which the debenture.% hal:4lll4in the prestige of the Company would be recoverel, and its development would era on at such a rapid rate that the whole of the debts would be paid without any great sacrifice on the the shares. About £BOO,OOO of these certificates were issued at par. The balance would have been issued, but it was found impossible by most par ties to return the other obligations of the company. It will be seen, therefore, that the mortgage debt of the railway, combined with its share capital at par, cover the whole of the cost of the rail way, including its unliquidated debts ; and this amount will not be exceeded, notwithstand ing the enormous loss during the last year in the res-lisation of securities deposited for loans. After alluding to the lines leased by the company, Mr. Mlieury proceeds :—" The following are the annual earnings of this railway since its opening :- 1861, gross earnings, $70,000 ; 1862, $257,327 ; 1863, $1,012,585 56c. ; 1864, $3,235,491 77c. ; 1865, $5,811,233 ; 1866, $5,676,127 15c. ; total, $16,062,764 48c. ; being at ordinary exchange £3,300,000, a progress unequalled by any railway company. As our executive become accustomed to act in concert, and experience of the capabilities of the line is obtained, great additions to earnings can be secured, and large deductions from expenditure enforced. In 1863 our working expenses were only 48. per cent. ; and there appears no good reason why this rate should be exceeded." The writer then enters into a statement to show that by pro per management the expenses may be reduced by no less than $1,072,680 per annum, and then gives the following "estimates of net income obtainable by the Atlantic and Great Western Railway on the basis of traffic for 1866, without allowing for future increase :—Net earnings for 10 months after pay ment of rents and leases, $1,035,185 ; add for two months, $207,037 ; reduction in pay-roll as per statement, $1,072,680 ; 10 per cent. of $5,670,000 (gross traffic in 1866) now diverted by the express companies, $567,000 ; tatal, $2,881,902. The total annual requirements for interest on the entire bond debts are, $2,100,000 ; the total interest on $14,000,000 certificates of debenture is, at 8 per cent., $1,120,000 ; deduct interest on bonds lodged as security, $366,562—5753,438 ; balance, $2,853,438. It will be seen by this statement that the present earnings of the road (at $5 to £1 ster ling) should leave, if these economies be effected, a net revenue sufficient to meet, all liabilities for inte rest to bond and debenture holders, without looking to the vast increase which follows the opening of all leading American railways. The superinten dent estimates the amount required for 1867, to put the permanent way into the best condition, at £159,000, and for rolling stock, £50,000. In other words, £200,000 expended on the permanent way and rolling stock will bring everything into first-class condition. Whatever amount of money can be spares for additional rolling stock and ac commodation for coal, cattle, and corn traffic, will add largely to the revenue, as those traffics are capable of almost indefinite development. The auditor points to a discrepancy of $973,400 between the consolidated bonds and the divisional bonds. This amount is covered by a letter from the law officer of the company, delivered by me to the trus tees so long ago as February of last year, empower ing me to receive consolidated bonds to represent an amount of bonds authorised over the several divi sions, but which divisional bonds, though included in the $16,142,000 total of Ist and 2d mortgages, had never been issued ; and by a further amount of divisional bonds now remaining in the hands of the trustees waiting formal cancellation. Repeated reference is made by the auditor to a sum of $7,858,000 consolidated bonds remitted to me. These bonds were received by me, and advertised by prospectus, dated December 2, 1865, and formed in the $6,000,000, also mentioned, part of the issue of consolidated bonds. In the annual report of 1865 it is stated that these bonds have been issued, and I am debited with the amount, and credited with the work done therefor. At no time were special securities sent to me in payment for special work ; but the whole of the works were carried on as a unit, with a view to the consolidation eventu ally arrived at. The enormous expenditure on the Cleveland branch was made without any special issue of securities. The Buffalo division being in cluded in this consolidation, all its special issues are now represented by consolidated securities, having a mortgage over the entire line. I have never ac counted to the eompary for disposal of securities. I received them at a fixed rate under my con tract, for work done or to be done. To Mr. Kennard was , properly left the application of all the money provided by me. 11 Nether he ap propriated it to the works at Buffalo, Cleve land, Salamanca, or in the Oil Regions, depended on his judgment, which seldom erred. To this freedom of action, and to his indomitable energy and fertility of resource, is due the early fruition of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway. The delay in completing the B u ff a l o ex t ens ion has led to negotiations with parties interested in the prosperity of the city of Buffalo, and of the coal fields of Pennsylvania, which will secure great the in finishing this wor k a t muc h l ess thanthe original estimate, and a shortening of the diStance by 25 miles. In the meantime a connection with Buffalo will be arranged over another line, with the disadvantage, however, of a change of gauge." Mr. M'lienry concludes as follows :—" When the posi tion and resources of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway are fairly understood its credit will rapidly recover, and enable s4tisfactory arrangements to be made for the certificates of debentures due in No vember next. I believe there is a combination be ween, parties in Am erica end England:lXL 44reciate the securities of this railway, vial a view to advan tage of rivals and enemies. The conspirators are active, but not strong enough. The Atlantic and Great Western Railway may be wounded, but it cannot be killed. If those interested in its success will take an active part in its affairs, denouncing what is wrong and defending what is right, the pay ment of coupons can be resumed during the present year, and all its open debt discharged without any serious delay. The distrust created here naturally reacts in America, and, the net revenue, on which all depends, suffers. ,Remove the distrust — ma k e ort it as y est - i s t u r d e e s o e f r t v h e s e P a o: d i t 1 y o o n u o w f l o f u h r a p v r e o a p e p r r t o y s — p e s r u o p u p s n v ment." Attached to this report are upwards of 1.00 folio pages of appendices, including the relaci r t i o f th e president, alluded to in the opening passa ge of Mr. M'llenry's address, and which concludes as follo w s ; —" The amount expended on constructi;)n duringthe year has been 7 principally paid out of the earn ings, and the remAinder of the net has been used in paying coupons here, and forwarded to London for a like purpose. By reference to the report of your superintendent it will be seen that the amount of work required to be done to complete the line will consume a large part of the net earnings cf the road for the ensuing-yegr or two, unless the amount can Should . you be derived from your capital account, not be able to_rea lise from this source, then your net earnings shyuld be used to complete what is essential to be done in order to work the road to the best advantage; and to develOpe fully its lzaffic and thereby give 'greater value to its securities,, SPORTING INTELLIGENcE.

On the 28th January all Albany was in a high state of excitement. The new sport called pig on-ice," was a race after a pig, let loose on one of the skating parks. The racs was announced for three o'clock precisely, at the Central Park. A space of about half an acre had been cleAred, and long before the time arrived hundreds and thou sands of men, women, and children, had gathered on and about the ice, some with skates, some with out, some to help to chase the pig, and ail to enjoy the fun. The pig was brought in a big box, and with much ceremony and beating of drums let loose—but, alas ! it refused to go. A w hip, how -1 ever, speedily changed its determination, and at last he started with some two thousand eager followers in pursuit. There was the usual amount of shout ing, pulling, cursing, and tumbling, when the pig was finally captured, and brought to the starting the pig no doubt sharing pinoin his t b e y xu a lt l a u t c io k n y a c t apWr thet t ermination of the chase. A LONG FOOT RACE.--A Nashville despatch an nounces an extraordinary foot race about to take !, • lace .—Two well-known German citizens of Nash ville have made a bet of one thousand dollars a side, and the money has been already stake I, on a foot rice between them from Nashville to Murfreesboro', some thirty-two miles distant. The terms are, that each contestant shall be at liberty to take the pike or pursue any more desirable route to the point of destinati..m ; that neither shall taste food from the moment of commencing the race until its comple tion, and that, he who first report at Mur freesboro', is to be considered the winner and take the money. Considerable interest is manifested in this run, and betting is expected to run high and large sums to change hands on the result. REMARKABLE SKATING. - The Minneapolis (Minn.) Chronicle records the following extraordi nary feat :—"A few days since, a young lady of the city, on whose head only fifteen summers have passed, determined, with her brother, to make a pilgrimage to Dayton on skates. They left at ten o'clock in the forenoon, and arrived at Dayton at four o'clock in the afternoon. The journey was performed in six hours ; the distance travelled, by the way they went, was about forty miles. The names of the parties are Miss Nellie and Samuel Nettleton, children of highly respectable parents of this city. We feel a little proud of this Minneapolis girl." ' Darius Phelps, of Leyden, recently trapped a forty-pound lynx, which had been making havoc among the sheep in that vicinity. About 90 per cent. of the salmon spawn which Dr. William W. Fletcher, of Concord, brought from New Brunswick and planted in the Pemigewasset river, November 2, were hatched by the Ist of January, and the young fish were generally strong and healthy. This is said to be the first instance of the artificial propagation of salmon in America. Mr. Z. E. Simmons, of New York, has purchased of Mr. J. E. Maynard, of Boston, the famous stallion, Ethan Allen, for $lO,OOO. The 120-pounds panther which was killed in a cave at Mr. Ascutney's, Vermont, is to be stuffed for preservation. The animal measures seven feet in length, two feet eight inches in height, and his death is a decided relief to the farmers and sheep owners of that region. He was pursued into a cave, and was blockaded there all night till the next. morning, when Mr. Gardner, one of the hunting party, shot him through the head. '.~
