STAMPED sd. convening the meeting, the report, an abstract of which has appeared in The Salt, was taken as read. The CIIMIZMAg, in moving the adoption of the report, said the line was worked by the Grand Trunk of Canada Company. The report contained all the ieforaiation the directors could give at pre sent. The small amount of net revenue might re cutire some exp Lin ttiou to the preference share holders, as the accounts showed no surplus for divi dend.on the preference shares. The directors ex pected that the Grand Trunk system would be in a short time so improved as to be worked at 60 per cent. of the gross receipts, and were it not for the loss ou American currency, they would have been in receipt of a handsome sum to divide. The Great Western of Canada Company worked their traffic at 50 per cent. of the gross receipts, and when the revenue on the Grand Trunk increased to a certain extent he had no doubt the line would be worked et the rate he had mentioned. The receipts recently - averaged about £25,000 or £26,000 a week ; but when they got up to an average of £30,000 a week the percentage of working expenses would be re duced in proportion. lie hoped the shareholders did not suppose that their line was doomed to be always down. In reply to a question respecting the cur rency, he stated that for the first half of last year the losS on the currency was only £14,261, but for the second half of last year it amounted to £61,828, which was a very large sum. The explanation he had received from Mr. Brydges was that it some times happened they had a larger Imlauce over for realisation at the end of one half-year than at the end of another. The loss' on. the American cur rency in the past year was £75,000, but the rate of exchange was now more favourable than it was 18 months ago. The directors had had several diffe rences to settle on matters of account with the Grand Trunk Company, and they found that the s p dl r ioff o w c e e ,r s s eaunc o de f s r el might n e ghr d g b d e i suggestedffi n e o r r e e n ces readilyo that a many arbitration nt was e d give - and take principle, which was responded to by Mr. Brydges, so that those differences were now being much reduced in number. Mr. P. RAWsoN, a director, seconded the motion for the adoption of the report, which was carried unanimously. In reply to a question it was stated that there would be no interest for the preference shares till next - August, when they hoped to have funds at their disposal for that purpose. There were not many differences of account now between the two companies, and when these were settled they trusted that things would go on very smoothly, and that they would have precedents to go by in future. The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. I%.E.LaND HELP for the DESTITUTE SICK,— METROPOLITAN FRE ie. II OS PITAL. Devon shire-square, City.

J 4- portion of the Bellary secbidn from Wallavapogi to ri Bellary, 67 miles in length, had been most carefully planned by Mr. Gordon, and had been favourably reported on by the Government engineer. The whole of the guaranteed capital of £1,000,000, with the exception of £1,499, had been paid to the Secre tary of State in Council, and it was therefore pro posed that the necessary authority should be given by the proprietors for converting the same into guaranteed stock. The guaranteed capital would, it was calculated, be wholly expended in India by the middle of June, from which time the expendi ture on ace..unt of the ;Treed advance of £600,000 by tl Secretary of State wonlil commence. DCBLIN, 711aV Preparal ions are being male for the execution c the convict Burke on Wednesday next. The warrfint will be forward d to the governor of Kilmainham Gaol to-d 'y. Burke is resigned to his fate, and pays great attention to his religious duties. Every body is kind and considerate towards him, and his prison fare is of the most generous character. He is said to be cheerful, and to have not declined La health since his conviction. His wife and children have been spoken of, but the Very Rev. Canon Kennedy, P.P., who is his spiritual director, has published a letter in which he says that the only worn in he mentions is his mother, to whom he seems devotedly attached. Capt. M'Afferty also appears perfectly resigned to his doom, and converses cheer, fully with the officials of the prison. Both con victs occupy the cells they had before their trial. The Sisters of Charity are frequent visitors to the prison, and do all they can to console the unfortu nate men in their awful position. There is still some hope, however, that at the last moment the Queen herself will interpose, and mercifully save them from the gallows. One fact is much against this hope—neither they nor any of the principal in surgents have expressed the slightest repentance for their acts of rebellion. On the contrary, they have all shown themselves to be animated by a spirit of hatred and defiance to the Government. If they themselves acknowledged the criminality of their acts and implored pardon, the case would be diffe rent. But still the question remains whether it is politic to make them martyrs. At the Special Commission yesterday sentence was pronounced as follows upon persons guilty on the indictment charging them with offences under the Whiteboy Act :—Patrick Meares and Henry Filgate, two years' imprisonment each ; Andrew Milor, 12 months' imprisonment ; Joseph Brown and Joseph M'Carty, 15 months' each ; Joseph Tomkins, 18 months', and James Mullaney, nine months' imprisonment. A number of persons were allowed to stand out on bail, or on their own re cognizance, toappeart o be when of goodcalled beohn to behaviour for for their iive years, . The Court adjourned till 10 o'clock t his mornin g . Alfred Aylward was brought up before Mr . Bar ton, at the head-office, yesterday. The pol i ce ha d no further evidence to produce against him on the charge of Fenianism, and the magistrates ordered him to be discharged ; but when leaving the court he was arrested under a warrant of the Lords Jus tices and taken to Kilmainham Gaol, where he will be detained under the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act. He has not yet disclosed the names of the 40a" , parties who fired at him. A reputed Fenian leader, named M'Donnell, who absconded from Slane, county of Meath, after the rising, has been arrested at Newcastle, in England. He is said to have mounted a neighbour's horse on the night of the sth of March, and to have ridden about the country rousing the people to join in the insurrection at Drogheda. The Cork Special Commission makes some pro gress. Four prisoners, M'Clure, Kelly, Joyce, and Bowler, were put on their trial for high treason yesterday morning. The Attorney-General stated the case for the Crown. It was nearly the same story which has been so often told. The approver Corydon was the first witness, and he gave his evi dence in the same flippant manner that distin guished him in Dublin. lie was cross-examined by Mr. Heron, Q.C., who has been assigned with Mr. Waters as counsel for the prisoners. DUBLIN, Thursday Evening. Captain M'Clure, on his trial for high treason at Cork, has pleaded " Guilty." Sentence deferred. Edward Otnegan'pleaded " Guilty" in Dublin to the charge of treason felony. Several others, arraigned for minor offences, also pleaded " and were discharged. ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN.

MADRAS IRRIGATION AND CANAL. The report of the directors states that a satisfae- . tory recommencement of executive operations had been made in respect of the works between Soon kasala and Cuddapah, and all desirable proceedings had been adopted for their vigorous continuance. A number of executive engineers had been most carefully selected in England and despatched to Madras, and were now engaged along the line of main canal between Soonkasala and Cuddapah, under the direction of the chief engineer. In Oc tober last the Secretary of State in Council for India had officially stated in a communication to the•local ; Government that he considered it particularly desir able that the company should have no grounds for complaint of unnecessary delay on the part of the Government in passing orders on plans and esti. mates. It was therefore hoped that in future greater freedom of action would be permitted to the com pany, and that those portions of t h e guarantee system which had hitherto been pr oductive of delay,expense, arid disappointment would henceforth be materially modified. The breach in the Anicut at Soonkasala had been repaired in a substantial manner. The complete and unfinished embankment and masonry walls of the main canal between the 18th and the 72d miles had been carefully examined and tested under the superintendence of the company's c hi e f engineer, and all measures necessary to strengthen them would now be executed without loss of time. In the meantime the works between the 72d mile i and Cuddapah woul d be pushed forward with vigour ullest utilisation. Th for their earliest and f 0 upper The Chalmers Target at Vincennes. Some important experiments were made on Mon day at Vincennes in the presence of various distin guished officers of the Artillery and Marines in the French and English services. One of the main ob jects was to test the Chalmers system of backing armour-plates. Two targets were erected—one on the Chalmers plan, and the other representing a section of an ordinary French ironclad ship of war. The superficial dimensions of the targets were the same—about 17ft. by Bft ; and they were placed side by side in a nearly vertical position. The French target was protected by two wrought-iron plates of 71 inches, but the plates on this as well as the other covered a portion of the surface only, about 14ft. by 6ft. The Chalmers target had a front plate of 51- inches; behind which was the compound back ing of alternate layers of iron and timber ; the laminae of iron being a foot wide and over i-inch ►ick, the timber being of the same width, and 6 ucheS in thickness. These layers were, before be !ore being attached to the target, riveted together ,n blocks of three plates of iron and two planks of timber ; the whole backing finally resting against a second plate of finch iron covering the upright timbers of the target. The vertical timbers and inner planking of both targets were alike, and both were supported in the rear by iron knees and a strong diagonal frame of timber. The two were, it would seem, intended to have been fired at alter nately, hut the actual practice made was against the Chalmers target only. The rounds were fired from a 9-inch 12-ton Armstrong gun, throwing 250 pound steel shot with Palliser ogival form of head ; some were with full charges of 431 b. of English powder, and some with reduced charges. Two shots penetrated, one stuck, and three failed to get through the out plating. These experiments seem to deserve attentive con sideration. Strict comparison with those recently made against combined steel a nd iron p l a tes at Shoe buryness is hardly possible, b e cause the plates there were unsupported, and the effects of the Palliser missiles upon them was more of a simple punching nature. Still when we regard the fact that in our experiments a 7in. gun was used againstth 7in two be s t , and just penetrate d, or rather stuck, in e pllsalbte.sef(Aplenswsrdse.r,Cwaemmlneulsl'ts)a, eewehrednsopmroepevlelerdy ewointh_ siderable value to Mr. Chahate c ner's backi made sin. to keep ewnitthoites assistance,largeran d heavier shot fromgun. The rule for punching plates is well known— namely, a diameter of shot slightly larger than the thickness of the plate, and the greater the margin between the diameter of the shot and the thickness e i t b l m . ulti l:l ae i n l o l y :v t zl t l briec i e r t o au t a i stel i a )late has of plate the more the difference tells in favour of the penetrative action of the shot. We have the , s i a o h t o 5 t :); impression that t lo h g es i eelorst°P stopped comparisons the7 ct de tails of the French experiments, which have reached us from private sources, are not sufficiently ample. We know that in these last Vincennes trials the effect of two or three of the stringers . the backing brought into resisting in simulta neously by the impact of the n • action pene tration even when fully charged,lissile prevented the distance at which the know that when the shotgun was placed. We also where the plating was • got through the armour the shot was turned supported by only one stringer, in the backing. This aside and became jammed the number of iron 18- would ' seem to indicate that increased and the anunz in the backing might be diminished, or, in thickness of the wood planking frequent. other words, that the more would be alternationsbeneficial of wood . and iron planking , to resistance offered by the Chalmers target. These particulars would also seem to extend the proofs of the value of Mr. Chalmers's system, THE SUN, LONDON, FIIIDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1867. OSB ORN E'S STILTON Is THE Cheese !

BONUS MEETING, 18G7. The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 3d January last, for the declaration of the EIGIITIE BoNus, showed, 1. As TO THE PROGRESS OF THE SOCIETY, that, during the quinquennial period which terminated on the 30th June, 1866, NEW - ASSURANCES for a total sutn:.'of £1,518,181, and yielding . £50,497 in Annual Premiums, had been effected, Of Which sums the former . exceeded by £31,811, and the latter by £2,332, the corresponding items of any previous period ; that * THE INCOUE had increased from £195,400 to £216,327 per annum ; and that THE ASSURANCE FUND, after plyralnt, of £85,303 on account a Bonus at the last Division, had risen from Tr4l!;Mrfrrf,6lo,339. _ 2. As TO THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE SOCIETY. That the Assets on June 30, 1866, were £1,619,539 14 8 And the Liabilities on the same date 1,313,708 19 2 Leaving a surplus of £275,830 15 6 and that, after setting aside £30,000 as a special Reserve Fund, - - THE AVAILABLE PROFIT was £225,830 15s. 6d., of which sum £225,000 was recommended for division. 3. As TO THE RESULTS OF THE DIVISION. That the portion of this sum of £225,000—viz., five-sixths, or £lB7,soo—which fell to the Assured, would yield a REVERSIONARY ADDITION TO THE POLICIES of £272,682, averaging 45 per Cent., or varying, with the different ages, from 32 to 85 per Cont. on the premiums paid since the last division; and that the CASH BONUS, which is the exact equivalent of such Reversionary Bonus, would average 26 per Cent. of the like premiums. The Report explained at length the nature of the In vestments and the bases of the Calculations, the results of which, as above shown, are eminently favourable. " The- next PROELTS .will take place in January, 1872, and Persons who effecClFEw POLICIES BEFORE THE END OF JUNE NEXT will be entitled at that Division to one year's additional share of Profits over later Assurers.

EPSO3.I RACES:—THURSDAY. . Yesterday's remarkable race still occupies all thoughts and conversation. That a horse who had br9lzon a blood vessel within the last forn:gyt, had been stoppd in his work, had not had a gallop since Monday.week, and who started at 100 to 1, should yet be able to win a Derby will long stamp this as a memorable year. In our remarks. on the first day's racing we spoke of this Derby as one to be characterised for its misfortunes and mediocrities; but, bad as the year's form was known to be', it appears we hardly realised its badness when an unprepared horse came and won, and Wild Moor finished fourth. Such a result sets at naught all racing judgment and calculations, and puts that much-vaunted "public form" out of court. True, it was he two-year-old form over again. As Hermit beat Vauban at Stockbridge last June, so he has beaten him again hero; bnt not a man ou Epsom Downs yesterday morning could have been found to believe it. The Two Thousand winner iu all his splendid condition and bloom on one hand, the unprepared and rather. mean-looking Hermit on the other, it looked all Lombard -street to the proverbial orange. The deduction is obvious, and brings us back to our promises, only when we spoke of the year as mediocre we perhaps used too mild a term. To-day has even colder than Wednesday, and none but the constant 7kt7iittia of a racecmirse were present. ; The favourite, flerennianu-4, wits-defeated in the Tadworth ----- Stakes by Dick Turpin,. but Lord Westmoreland managed to win in the Carew Stakes with Master Willie; the Cor- poral made a very near race of it, and only got beaten by a head. It wa . s a intlier difficult thing to separate Lady Elizabeth and Grimstoil iii thbTwo Year Old Stakes, as their running has very nearly Made theta the same aui- orals. From an impression, however, that this course would suit Mr. Pryor's horse best he was made the fa _ vourite, and a slashing set-to between them resulted in a dead heat. In the deciding heat Lady Elizabeth wonafter a splendid finish by a head. The Epsom Cup brought out a large field, in which there were so many "well in" that it was a dangerous race to meddle with. The favourite, Cheltenham, finished a good race with the outsiders, the Annie Laurie and the Flutter colt, but failed to get u 1;, and was beaten by three-quarters of a length. We are authorised to contradict the statement which has appeared in a contemporary that a noble lord who won the Two Thousand a few years back has lost £lOO,OOO on the Derby, as it is devoid of foundation. The Tadworth Stakes of 5 sous each, with 100 added ; two year olds ist, three 9st; fillies and geldings allowed Mb; the winner to be sold, with engagements, for 200 sous. Half a mile.

On passing the distance Dick Turpin came to the front, and, making the remainder of the running, won cleverly by a length ; a head between second and third.

When the flag was lowered Lady Elizabeth, with Balsam() and Bossy Dixon on her left, got away in advance of King Alfred and Grimston, to the stand. Here Balsam° and Bossy Dixon gave way, and Grimston then challenged the leader, and, getting lip in the last stride, was just enabled to make a dead heat of it. King Alfred was third, a length in the rear, Weather Isle fourth, Hatchment fifth, Balsam() sixth, Bossy Dixon seventh, and Benfleet last. Deciding Heat.— Betting -5o to 40 on Grimston. After a short delay, owing to the restiveness of Lady Elizabeth, the latter came away with a slight lead, and forcing the running, won after a magnificent race by a head.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. .61,54G0W AND SOITDII-WASTERN. , A-meeting of the general Committee of share- : 1 holders in this company was held on Tuesday in Glasgow ; Mr. G. Smith in the chair. The report of the sub-committee in reference to the bill for amalgamating this company with the Midland Company stated that by the proposed amal gamation the interests of the public would not be prejudiced, but, on the contrary, be materially pro moted. The main lines of the two companies would form portions of a great continuous communication between London and Glasgow ; and that the amal gamation would preclude the possibility of the West Coast route being monopolised by the London and North-Western and Caledonian Railway Com panies. The Glasgow and South-Western was hemmed in, and its success to a great extent was controlled by those companies. The position of the Glasgow and South-Western and of the Midland Railway Companies were found to be so nearly alike, that an amalgamation on equal terms was deemed the fairest course for both. The committee felt war ranted in recommending the Amalganiation Bill to the cordial support of the shareholders. On the motion of Mr. Smith, seconded by Mr. Nicholson, the report was approved, and the sub committee were requested to take steps to secure the passing of the amalgamation bill, and its ap proval by the shareholders. GRAND TRUNK OF CANADA. The report of the directors of this company states that since the half-yearly meeting on the 18th April last . , the board had had two separate conferences, one with the postal and military bondholders, and the other with some of the largest holders of each class of bonds and stocks, representing about £4,000,000 of the company's capital. At both these conferences the following resolution, by way of recommenda tion to the meeting to be held on the 30th inst., was adopted :—" That it be recommended that powers be applied for in the ensuing Session of the Canadian Parliament to convert the postal and military bonds (say) .£1,200,000, into equipment mortgage bonds, at a rate equal to 60 per cent. or (say) £72,000 of equipment mortgage bands, bear ing a fixed rate of interest of (say) 6 per cent., and to raise a further sum of £480,000 equipment bonds for the purposes of the company, the whole issue of these equipment mortgage bonds then being £1,700,000, payable, first, out of the postal and military revenue ; and, secondly, if need be, out of the general net income. That the Act be subject to the consent of the postal and military bondholders, and to a vote of three-fifths of the bond and stock holders present at a special meeting. Also that powers be applied for to change the name of the company to the Canadian Railway Company.'" Although the adoption of this recommendation, while not increasing the total amount of preference capital, would, at the same time, place at the dis posal of the company £480,000 of new 'equipment bonds, wherewith to purchase new rolling stock, and to provide for improvement and enlargement of works and permanent way,the board were of opinion that the present moment was not opportune even for this desirable operation ; and they therefore could only recommend at present an application to the Canadian Parliament for a permissive Act to authorise the plan proposed in the above resolution, leaving it to the several classes of bond and stock holders, after the passing of the,Act, to adopt or re ject that plan, as they might then think fit. But, in the meantime, the board .would explain that, if the plan be ultimately adopted, it would not only increase the total amount of preference capital, although leaving available £480,000 of it, but would, having regard to the future, add little, if anything, to the amount of annual interest on such capital. The interest on the existing equipment bonds (£50,000 at 6 per cent.) was £30,000 a year ; to this must be added the amount which, when the Inter colonial Railway was in full operation, would be the annual sum then accruing to the postal and military bondholders on their capital of £1,200,000. What that amount would be could, of course, be only matter of estimate. For 1866-7 it would be about 4 per cent. on the £ 1 , 200 , 000 ; but, although this year's revenue was to some extent exceptional, there seemed no reason to doubt the probability at least of an increase even within the next few years. If the increase should in (say) five years be only one fourth in excess of the income of 1866-7, then the annual charge would be £60,000 a year; should it be one-half, then that charge would be £72,000 a year—that was to say, it would, with the interest on the present amount of equipment bonds, as above (£30,000), amount to £102,000, which was just equal to what would be the interest on the total amount of equipment bonds as they would exist if the proposed new plan were adopted. The board had no hesitation in recommending to their brother bond and stock holders generally the proposed settle ment with the postal bondholders, while to the latter that plan might also be recommended as giving them a more marketable security for their money, and more than the amount of annual income they bad received on the average of the past five years. As regarded the return to be expected from the judi cious gradual outlay of such portions of the proposed new capital of £480,000,as might from time to time be thought expedient, the board referred the pro prietors to the report of Mr. Brydges, of the 3d of April last, and to the explanations given at the last I.Y.eueral meeting, BUFFALO AND LANE I.IIIRON.
