Mr. HARRISON said he had examined the works, and he could say that £l,OOO was too much to charge for them. He concluded by moving that the report of the directors be received and adopted ; that the meeting censured the management by the former board and officers of the company ; that Messrs. Russell and Hartley be requested to resign ; and that the new directors were authorised to take such steps as they might deem expedient, and that the counsel might advise.

THE REC'ENT STORM. GREAT YARMOUTH, Wednesday. The George Kendall, which was lost on the Cross Sand early on Tuesday morning, and which was the indirect cause of the dreadful disaster at Gorleston, was a full rigged ship of 1,300 tons. She was of and from Liverpool to Hull with a cargo of cotton seed, &c., and was commanded by Captain Hurst. One of the owners, Mr. Gibson, a young man about 23 years of age, was ifirboard. There was a crew, including the captain, of 22 haods. All•-the crew, with Mr. Gibson, were in the lifeboat when it capsized. Six of the life-boatsmen and 19 of the crew of the ship were drowned—in all 25 souls. Among those lost are Captain Hurst, Mr. Gibson, the mate (a foreigner), the steward, and most of the seamen. The men saved were Henry Heath, William Harrold, Jaants Best, and Henry Smith. The six Gorleston men lost were T. Morley, leaving a wife and four children ; J. Leg gett, single ; N. S. Spurgeon, wife, and one child ; C. Hannant, wife, and one child ; W. Moss, wife, and three children ; and T. Sheen, wife, and four children. In addition to the body of Sheen, already reported as picked up, another body washed ashore on Tuesday morning, but it has not yet been identi fied. The body of a well-attired man, supposed to be that of Captain Hurst, has been driven on to the beach near Lowestoft. In the pockets of the de ceased were several sovereigns and other moneys. It is asserted that great carelessness was exhibited i❑ the management of the fishing lugger, otherwise the catastrophe might have been avoided. LOWESTOFT, Tuesday. The brig Queen Victoria, Mitchell, of Shields, for London with coals, was driven on the Barnand Sand this afternoon and soon went to pieces. The crew, eight in number, were all drowned, with the exception of Simon Temple, carpenter, who was saved by the Pakefield lifeboat. The Kessingland lifeboat was also launched, but was unable to save any of the crew. Both boats had great difficulty in getting off, owing to the boisterous state of the weather. SUTTON, LINCOLNSHIRE, Tuesday. The Birmingham No. 1 lifeboat on this station has again performed a very arduous and successful service. Yesterday the lifeboat's crew were for tunately assembled, the gale which had been blow ing with great violence being then at its height. About noon a large brig was seen drifting along the coast to the northward in a very disabled condition, her mainmast gone, the whole of the remaining sails blown to atoms and fluttering in the wind, and signals of distress flying in the rigging. The life-boat was launched in the most tremendous sea that has ever been seen off the coast. It was a long and arduous task to pull through the surf, but it brought out the good qualities of both men and boat in a most admirable manner. So huge were the billows that the boat was often completely lost to sight. At last sail was got on theboa4an'fl she started gallantly in pursuit of the distressed brig. It was a most interesting and heartrending sight to see the chase---a race truly of life and death. The ship at last struck on a jutting point of land off Ingold Mills, about 10 miles distant from Sutton, just as the boat overtook her. A communication was then effected between the ship and the life boat, and the crew of seven men were rescued and brought safely ashore in an exhausted state, and were very thankful for the help of the lifeboat. The ship proved to be the Clarinda, of Sunderland, and was bound to that port from Ostend in ballast, and she had been overtaken by the gale on Sunday when off Hartlepool. She was thoroughly disabled, and has since broken away and driven completely ought of sight. The lifeboats of the Institution at Margate, Holy Island and North Sunderland (Northumberland), Withernsea (Yorkshire), Theddlethorpe (Lincoln shire), Blakeuey and Yarmouth (Norfolk), Lowes toft and Kessingland (Suffolk), Rye (Sussex), and Fishguard (South Wales), have also been out with the view of rendering assistance to the crews of dis tressed vessels. It will be observed that the life boats of this Institution have been incessantly en gaged, night and day, during the recent heavy gales, and they have rescued nearly 200 persons from various shipwrecks. RAILWAY AND OTHER COMPANIES. DUBLIN TRUNK CONNECTING. An extraordinary general meeting of this company was held on Tuesday at the Westminster Palace Hotel; Mr. S. D. Williams, jun., in the chair. The report was of considerable length. It stated that under the Act of 1867 a meeting was held on the sth of September last, when four of the old di rectors retired from the board, and Messrs. S. D. Williams, jun., W. B. Patrick, W. C. Smith, and F. R. Bluett were chosen by the shareholders in their stead. At the first ensuing board meeting Mr. S. D. Williams, jun., was elected chairman of the company. In the course of the investigations of the new directors they found that the land pur chased for £2,515 was merely a nominal value, and the works actually executed, including 25 per cent. for profit, was only about £4,000, and were wholly useless ; but such as they were —the plant and a promissory note of the late secretary for £1,750 — constituted the only possessions of the company ; while to obtain those worthless assets the former directors had expended money and incurred known liabilities to the amount of £92,364. Of thi s sum, £63,896 had already found or was in process of finding its way into the pockets of the promoters of the scheme. The sum of £7,800 had been expended in " buying back" shares for the purpose of "rig ging the market." The late board had allowed judgments to be obtained against the company for £28,649, the items of which were fully explained in the report, and that the judgment creditors had begun their scramble for the shareholders' money ; but the present directors trusted, from information in their possession, that the company would be en abled to obtain restitution. The CHAIRMAN said the meeting had been con vened to consider and decide on what steps should be taken, and also in the hope that the late directors and others interested in the promotion of the under taking would attend to give explanations with a view to remove impressions which the investigation of the affairs of the company had made on those who bad inquired into them. He complained th a t a few gentlemen of influence and high standing had allowed their names to appear on the Board and in the prospectus, which had induced him and others to apply for shares in the company, believing from that circumstance that it was a bona fide con cern, and that its affairs would be safe in their hands. They should, at least, make some compensation for the losses the shareholders had thus incurred. Mr. J. MULVANY, the valuator, and Mr. MAL LETT, one of the engineers of the company, saidi they did not at all agree with the views of the coin- DUBLIN, WICKLOW, AND WEXFORD. A special meeting of this company ;was held on Monday in Dublin to consider a bill for the arrange ment of certain financial matters connected with the undertaking ; Mr. L. Waldron in the chair. The CHAIRMAN explained that the object of the bill was to confirm an agreement already come to with Lord Wicklow. The bill was a permissive one; it was proposed to consolidate the preference shares into one preferential stock ; they proposed to take power to issue £90,000 of new 5 per cent. pre ferential stock to cover a like amount of money already received and expended on the undertaking, secured by the deposit of £145,000 stock in the hands of those who advanedi the £90,000, and which latter stock would be cancelled on the creation and issue of the £90,000 new preferential stock. It was also proposed by way of compromise to ascertain and determine how matters stood between the com pany and the late Mr. Dargan or his representa tives, all the clauses in the bill being subject to the approval of three-fifths of the shareholders represented at the meeting of the company convened for the purpose. Mr. J. HAYDEN moved a resolution to the effect that the meeting approved the principles of the bill as explained by the directors, and authorised them to proceed with it, on the understanding that the shares to be issued for compromise and indem nity should not exceed R 20,000. Mr. J. 1). GREEN seconded the motion. Sir G. PRESTON moved an amendment for the adjournment of the meeting and the appointment of a committee ; but after some discussion the amendment was withdrawn, and the motion was unanimously adopted. NORTH EASTERN. The Derwent Valley branch of this company's railway was opened this week. It affords a direct communication between the large manufacturing population of Consett, Berryedge, and Shotley bridge and Blaydon, Newcastle, Gateshead, and the other Tyneside towns, and also with their through systems between Carlisle and Newcastle, and from Newcastle north and south. 1) EACH RHENISH. The receipts on this line from the commencement of the present book year, on the Ist of May last to the 15th of November, amounted to £174,799, showing an increase as compared with the corre sponding period of last year of £24,978 ; and the working expenses to £71,166, or 40.71 per cent. of the receipts, and for the corresponding period of last year to 39.56 per cent., leaving a balanco of £103,633. CHARLES DICKENS IN AMERICA. A telegram from Boston was received yesterday in London in reference to Mr. Dickens's first read ing on the 2d inst.--" Tremendous Success; Greatest Enthuniasm"—than which nothing could be more satisfactory. From the Boston Post, of the 20th ult., we take the following account of Mr. Dickens's nocturnal reception in Boston :-- "The announcement published in yesterday morning's papers to the effect that Charles Dickens was to arrive in Boston some time during the day created a great anxiety on the part of his more inti mate friends in this city to meet him at the very earliest opportunity, and to extend to him such courtesies as they might be able to do under the circumstances incident to an uncertain hour of arrival. This anxiety was not alone confined to his intimate personal friends and busi ness associates, but extended to others whose readings have made them earnest admirers of the distinguished novelist, and many were the inquiries made at the reading-room and other depots of intelligence respecting the arrival of the Cuba. But during the afternoon, and even up to six o'clock, the only, and under the circum stances rather discouraging, information that could be obtained was duly bulletined—" The Cuba has not been signalled." As the steamer was fully due at three o'clock, and as the weather was quite fair, her non-arrival naturally created considerable anxiety on the part of his friends, and at six o'clock private despatches were forwarded to New York to the effect that there were well-grounded fears that some serious accident has happened. But at about eight o'clock news was received that the steamer had been signalled some 15 miles off Hull, which intel ligence created great rejoicing among the various circles of friends in waiting. 44 In order to expedite the arrival of Mr. Dickens on our shores, Mr. George Dolby, his energetic and most courteous agent in this country, had made arrangements to meet him in the steamer somewhere off Hull with the United States steam tug Hamlin. This boat accordingly left her moorings at about twelve o'clock yester day noon, having on board the following gentle men, viz. :—" Mr. G. Dolby, the American agent of Mr. Dickens ; T. Russell, collector of the port ; Mr. J. T. Fields, of the firm of Ticknor and Fields ; Professor 0. W. Holmes, General Underwood, sur veyor of the port ; Hon. Josiah Quincy ; General Sherwin, deputy surveyor ; J. M. Fisk, principal deputy collector ; and others. There being no signs of the Cuba from the signal station the Hamlin re turned to the city at 4 o'clock ; and after the above named gentlemen had paid a visit to the outgoing steamer Java, the Hamlin again dropped down into the stream, and at a quarter past nine o'clock re turned to Long Wharf with Mr. Dickens, where Mr. Dolby had carriages in waiting to take him to his quarters at the Parker House. On his arrival Mr. Dickens expressed himself as being in excellent health and spirits, and greeted his friends in the most cordial manner, saying that he was overjoyed to be once more upon American soil. After being seated in his carriage he was driven at once to the Parker House, where he took posses sion of the elegant apartments provided for his reception, and spent the evening in close intercourse with his friends. Mr. Dickens will remain in Boston until the evening of the Bth of December, when he leaves for New York to meet his engagements, which commence on the evening of the 9th of Dec. His first readings in this city are on Monday, Dec. 2, and all desirous of securing seats should pur chase their tickets at once. "A number of persons assembled on Cunard wharf, East Boston, yesterday afternoon, expecting that the distinguished novelist would first step ashore at that point, along with the passengers who bore him company in the Cuba. These persons were some what disappointed to learn that Mr. Dickens was rest going to disembark at that place, though many of them remained until the final arrival of the vessel to make themselve4 sure of the fact. Some considered the story a dodge to prevent a large crowd from gathering, and such were not willing to miss an opportunity of seeing the illustrious ' Boz,' even though they were forced to submit to PRICE.— ld. STAMPED sd. • considerable incTOPtigfinc,T and delay in the cold by so doing. ‘‘ We have had a great many Dickens communica tions, in prose and verse, sent to us ; some lauCa tory, some censorious. One complains of his book about America—another about the pretentious an: nouncements, as he calls them, of the expected ad vent—the manner of selling tickets of admission to the readings, &c. ; while, on the other hand, his genius is extolled as almost superhuman, his read ings as the perfection of oratory, his grace of person and manner as the 71C plus ultra of good breeding, and the management of his friends here in preparing for his appearance in public as all that good judg ment and careful consideration could suggest. We think there is more or less truth on both sides, but are willing to rub out all scores and start fresh with the distinguished gentleman on the 2d of December, not doubting but he will commend himself so fa vourably to his new auditors as to render them eager to hear what he says, and, like Oliver, ask for more. Bostonians are apt to be a little fussy, but generally come round right at last. The success of the readings in America, we have no doubt, will be equal to, if not beyond, any Mr. Dickens has expe rienced at home, although no prophet was ever more honoured in his own country." The Boston Herald, Nov. 20, says :—This gentle man arrived last evening at half-past eight o'clock in the steamer Cuba, and proceeded to the Parker House, where rooms were engaged for him. A quiet evening passed. Mr. Dickens being somewhat fatigued by the voyage felt constrained to keep within the privacy of his apartments and not attempt to entertain the numerous persons who were desirous thus early, rather inopportunely, to congratulate him upon his safe arrival and welcome him again to Boston.

STUD NEWS.—Asteroid has been gazetted to Danobury, and Nutbourne is going to try his fortune in the North, at as is going to RawelitTo at a reduced price, which ought to induce Yorkshire breeders to give him a chance. At the same place Claret and Camerino, who are more nearly related to Waxy and PotBos than any other horse at the stud, stand also, and at the same low figure of 15 guineas. Now, as the former has had only a very few mares, and stock have won at least £3,000 in stakes this year, and Miss Camerino has shown what the latter can do when mated with suitable mares, it follows they have claims to support from those breeders who aro shut out from Stock well, Trumpeeer, Newminster, and the 100-guinea divi sion. Crater, whom we saw the other day at Mamhead, is quite the lord of the harem, and is filling out to a really grand horse. From the promise dicplayed by his colts, we understand he will be almost entirely reserved for the Mamhead mares. Sir Lydston Nowman's other yearlings are all by the cracks of the day, viz., Stockwell, Eing Tom, Newminster, and Blair Athol ; and the fruits of his policy will no doubt be apparent in the return list from Tattersall's in June. There are few better bred horses in England than Crater, and his speed was as notorious as his staying powers. The best of the young things by him are Mont Blanc out of Lady Blanche, Naples out of Olympias, Sorronlo out of Fair Agnes, and Mdlle. Cliquot out of Madame Cliquot. The King Toms are on a large scale, and with all the bone of their sire ; and if we had any pre foronc, it was for Miss Rothschild out of Prioress. The Blair Athol filly out of Equity, and which is well named Chancery, is so good-looking and racing -like that numbers are sure to get over their dislike to the name, even if they get into Chancery by so doing. High Church, by New miuster out of Start Point, will make many a true Protes tant " start" when they come to him, for he is the best of the flock, and we are happy to find that his doctrines have not yet been embraced by his owner ; nor did we discover during our stay at Mamhead any tendency towards them. Royal Exchange, by Stockwell out of King of Kent's dam, need not have been advertised, so like is he to the old horse in every particular. There is also a very good looking Brocket bolt out of Rita, which, after what See saw fetched the other day at Danebury, is worth remem bering, as the latter's dam is by Broket likewise. The whole stud, we may say, exhibited a clean bill of health, and are in the best of condition.—" Our Van," in Bailey's .211agaziue for Dec ember. The Bank Returns.

THE PATRIOTIC FUND.—A meeting of the Com missioners of the Patriotic Fun d was held yesterday at the Palace of Westminster. There were present—the Earl of Hardwicke, in the chair; Lord St. Leonards, Lord Lyveden, Gen. the Hon. J. Lindsay, Sir John Pakingtcn, Right Hon. H. T. Lowry Cony, Sir John Burgoyne, Sir Hew Ross, Capt. E. G. Fishbourne, R.N., and Brigadier- General Lefroy, R.A., the hon. secretaries, attended. THE HERMIT CRAB.—No sooner is an empty shell dropped into the water close to the crab than he darts at it, and seizes it with his claws, with every appearance of delight ; he then proceeds to turn the shell about and exa mine it thoroughly; diving his legs and claws into it as if desirous of ascertaining its depth and breadth. If this exa mination should prove unsatisfactory, the crab pushes the shell on one side with an air of disgust ; but if, on the contrary, he is satisfied with his investigation, he sud denly draws himself out of his house, and pops his tail into the new shell with marvellous rapidity ; reminding cno of the way in which we jump into bed on a cold winter's night.—Once a Week. The gh - OVOT Mr. Lan, a'tnatehmaker and jeFelleF in Hart-street, Mark-lane, was entered a few days ago, and stock in-trade to the value of £4OO or £5OO stolen, con sisting of 38 gold and 45 silver watches, 25 gold guard chains, a silver brooch, 2 wedding - rings, 17 diamond and other rings, 3 gold keeper rings, 1 mourning ring, and a number of keys, seals, charms, sleeve-links, and other articles of jewellery. Hart-street, the scene of the robbery, connects Crutched-friars with Mark-lane, and Mr. Leach's shop is on the ground floor, the upper part of the premises being let out in offices chiefly. There is a street door common to all the occupants, and within that is a side door, locked at night, leading to the shop of Mr. Leach. The watches and articles of jewellery above enu merated were on the evening of Friday last placed partly in a wooden box and partly on trays, according to custom, and deposited in an iron safe, with other valuable property forming part of his stock. The shop, like those of many other jewellers, since the burglary in Cornhill, has usually been lighted with gas throughout the night, and was so lighted on the night of Friday to ensure greater safety. The robbery, however, was not committed during the night, but on Saturday morning between 8 and 9 o'clock. At 8 o'clock the premises are supposed to have been all safe, for some one connected with a floor at the top of the house, on opening the street door at that hour from the outside and proceeding upstairs to his work, observed nothing amiss. About 20 minutes afterwards, on Mr. Leach's ssn, a boy of 14, arriving, he found the door of the shop had been opened by a false key, and the gas inside turned off. The iron safe was also open, and a skeleton key had been left in the door. The robbery must have been effected hastily, for much valuable property still re mained in drawers and other parts of the safe untouched, and the thieves had taken that which first presented itself. Several watches and other articles also remained in the window undisturbed. They got clear off with their booty, and are still at large. A reward of £lOO has been offered for their apprehension and the recovery of the stolen property. :ME _MURDER AND ROBBERY IS SHROPSHIRE. The Inquiry into the circumstances attending the death of Mr. Bernard Zusman, late of Birmingham, which was formally opened on Saturday last, was resumed yester• day, before the coroner, at Dawley. It will be remem bered that the deceased was last Friday found dead in a ditch, near Stuckley, under circumstances which have been already reported, and which leave no doubt that he had been the victim of a shocking murder. The court sat the whole day, but the following comprises the main points of the evidence elicited beyond that with which the public is familiar. A boy named Booth son of the farmer upon whose land the body was discovered, deposed to finding the hat of the deceased near the ditch. This was on Saturday, the 16th of November, the day after the murder, when, of course, nothing was known of the mat ter. The witness placed the hat upon a post, and used it as a target. At the time of finding the hat he noticed a large patch of blood in the field close by. George Evison, a labourer, said he was in company with others looking over the scene of the murder on Sunday morning, when his attention was drawn to some object hidden among the long grass in the ditch. On examining it closer he found it to be the box in which the deceased carried his watches. It was broken open and empty. Several witnesses spoke to seeing deceased on the day of his disappearance, the one who saw him last being the station-master at Iforsehay, who booked him for Coalbrookdale by the 2.43 p.m. train. This witness was not sure whether it was the 11.36 a.m. train or the 2.43 p.m. by which the deceased travelled, but the hour is fixed by other evidence. Coal brookdale is the nearest station to Ironbridge, where the deceased was staying, and the place where the body was discovered is about three miles from Ironbridge, and entirely out of the route which the deceased would have taken in walking to that town from the station at Coal. brookdale. It may be stated as the opinion of the police engaged in the investigation of the affair, that the decease& was designedly decoyed to the place of his murder, it being in a lonely neighbourhood, and leading to no place where he '.ad business. The inquest was adjourned. LAW AND POLICE. 13RF.ACII OF PROMISE.—In a case of breach of promise of marriage, tried in the Court of Exchequer at West• minster, the plaintiff was a young girl named Howard, and the defendant Captain Morhain, said to be private secretary to the Count of Paris. The mother of the plaintiff, a Mrs. Vinnicombe, described how, under th, captain's orders, she took apartments for him and had daughter for a few days till he should be able to ma.try her. She admitted in cross-examination that the plaintf and her two other daughters were illegitimate. Plaintifri counsel now said he had come to the conclusion that the action could not be maintained, and would therefore with.' draw a juror. There was another action by Mrs. Vinni• combe against the captain for the seduction of het daughter, and in this a stet processus was entered. ALLEGED MURDER IN BIRMINGHAM.—At the Warwick Assizes William Silvester was indicted for the wilful mur der of John Sheppard, at Birmingham, on the 29th of July last. It appeared that on the night in question the prisoner's father and a man named Stewart began fighting in Harding-street, Birmingham. The deceased's father, who also lived in the locality, became mixed up in the affray, and was knocked down. The deceased, who was in bed at the time, on hearing some one exclaim " Old Sheppard's down," ran into the street. He went to assist his father up, and whilst he was in the act of doing so the prisoner stabbed him with a knife in the left shoulder, inflicting a wound an inch and a half long and two and a half inches deep. The deceased was taken to the General Hospital, where he died on the 29th July, from the effects of that wound. The day before he died the prisoner was confronted with him, when deceased said, " That's the man that stabbed me." The jury found a verdict of manslaughter, and the learned judge sentenced him to fifteen years' penal servitude. BREACH OF PROMISE OP MARRIAGE.—At the Man.; chester Assizes the case of " Rogers v. Cleff " was tried. It was an action for breach of promise of marriage in which the defendant, James Clegg, was higher in social position than the plaintiff. He for some time took an interest in her education, and seemed to have regarded her with a mixture of lover and patron. After some years' courtship, however, he attempted to break off the connection, and when, through her solicitor, she charged him with breach of promise, he sent her a letter, which the counsel for the prosecution said was an appli. cation for her to send in a sort of bill of costs for her damaged affections. The learned judge said the letter was about as mean and shabby as a man could write. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff ; damages, £l6O. THE DECEITFUL WINDING' or WOOL.—Counsel's opinion (that of Mr. Cleasby, Q.C.), has been taken by the Brad. ford Chamber of Commerce on the question whether there is any remedy in common law for "the deceitful winding of wool," and a typical case was put, in which the put.. chaser found a quantity of inferior stuff among the wool he bought, and made a claim on the vendor. An Act of Parlia. meat, which gave protection to the buyer under such circum. stances, having been repealed, it was asked what would be the prospects of an action in such a case, and what court should be applied to. Mr. Cleasby gave it as his opini that no proceedings could be taken to recover any penal. ties for the fraudulent winding of wool ; but that, if an unusual mode of winding was adopted to give undue weight to the fleece, an action for deceit could be main. tained. It should be brought in a county court for a small .. sum, but in the superior courts for a larger one. DAMAGING SIB HENRY EDWARDS'S ESTATE. The Master of the Bolls has had before him an application by Sir Henry Edwards, M.P. for Beverley, for an injunction" to restrain the defendants, Morris and others, who are chemical manufacturers, from allowing sulphurous and arsenical fumes to escape from their works to the injury and destruction of plaintiffs trees on his estate, called Pye'e Nest. His lordship said that after carefully reviewing the evidence he had come to the conclusion, first, that the plaintiff had not satisfactorily established his claim, and secondly, that by his acquiescence in the nuisance the defendants had acquired a prescriptive right to commit the. nuisance complained of. JOHN FREELING WILKINSON AGAIN.—In the case of Shepherd v. Gillespie, before Vice-Chancellor Stuart, the plaintiff sued to have his name taken off the list of contributories, as he had sold his shares to John Freeling Wilkinson, who I ad transferred them to the defendant Gillespie. The defendant contended that he never bought the shares, and that Wilkinson—who is now undergoing imprisonment for alleged forgery—had used his name without his consent. It was shewn, however, that defers• dant had had the deeds handed over to him, and he had kept them. His Honour held that the contract was in, fact substantially performed, and made a decree in favour of the plaintiff on the question of removing plaintiff's name from the list of contributories. ROBBERY FROM EBOLOYEBS. —At the Middlesex Sessions, a builder's clerk, named John Henry St. Aubyn Weston, was awarded five years' penal servitude for having robbed his employer of £220. Weston was entrusted with a, cheque for the £220, and disappeared with it. After indulging in " high life " at various hotels throughout the country under assumed names, a wideawake policeman pounced upon him unexpectedly, and put an unceremonion and t 9 his short fashionable career. • mr A I,E aI.M6, 21N _alga noir:lmm, (411• — •'-ioi all bookseller?.
