A general meeting of the Shareholders of this Com pany was held on Saturday, at their house, No. 7, Adam street, Adelphi, late the elegant residence of Alderman Christopher Smith. The meeting was very numerously attended. At three o'clock the chair was taken by C. K. Nscilor.Ls, Esq., who said that the lion. Chair man of the Board of Directors, Cornelius O'Brien, Esq., M.P., was unavoidably absent, attending the Assizes in Ireland, the honour of presiding therefore devolved upon him. The Actuary would now read the Report. Mr. WILLIAms, the Actuary, then read the following REPORT : ___. " This being the first meeting of the Proprietors hel: pursuant to the 45th clause of the deed of settlement since the formation of the Westminster Loan and In vestment Society' into a joint stock company, the Di rectors, with combined feelings of duty and satisfaction, proceed to offer to you a clear and succinct statement oi the operations of the Company up to February 1842. " Before adverting to the re tilts of their operations, the Directors beg to remind you that, in the commercial community, as in other departments of national enter priza, there are certain great and valuable principals, that, if properly worked out, must produce results most beneficial to society. " The plans that have hitherto governed mercantile operations have been frequently embarrassed by mis guided views, inasmuch as the force of capital has been chiefly directed to the support of the great merchant and trader, whilst the humble classes have, in the main, been excluded from the benefits conferred on the richer mem bers of the trading community. "The Westminster Loan Society' was originally in stituted in the year 1839, with the intention of miti gating this commercial defect, and its operations hitherto have been crowned with unqualified success—a strong evidence of the value of such an Institution. That the views of the promoters of this establishment should have been so fully realised, is a source of great satisfaction, those views being directed towards a ff or di ng assistance to the trading and working classes, by loans at a moderate charge. " But whilst this result has been secured to the bor rowers, a collateral and legitimate benefit has been realised to the Shareholders, by the re-investment of the weekly re-payments, which, calculated in arith metical progression, forms one of the important sources from which the Company is enabled to grant to its Shareholders and Depositors a higher rate of interest, with greater safety for their money than the ordinary channels of commercial investments afford, and as might have been predicted from the importance of the Esta blishment and its great accessibility, other benefits have been secured by accommodation rendered to persons of a higher grade of life, such as Government officers, pro fessional persons, artists, and men of science, &c., &c. The Directors beg to state, finding that their origi nal premises were inadequate to the increased operations of the Company, they deemed it prudent to purchase the lease of the house, No. 7, Adam -street, Adelphi, being one eligibly situated, and of full capacity for conducting the affairs of the Institution. " The premises have been fitted up in a commodious and business-like manner, and with the strictest regard to economy, " They also beg to state that in furtherance of the objects of the Company, they have opened a bank for - the receipt and payment of current accounts in the usual manner of other banks, and which depart ment has received from the public pleasing and satis factory encouragement. The Directors wish to dtaw the particular attention of the Shareholders to another new feature in the Com pany's operations, viz.; the establishment of an mien rolled bank for savings, in which all classes of the community can deposit, however small or consi derable, at the rate of 41, per cent. per annum, and to suit the convenience of the public, this department is open daily from nine o'clock in the morning to five in the afternoon. Another privilege to depositors is recog nised in the facility offered them to withdraw their money by r„iying to the Company three clear days' notice of such intention. " This branch has already been fully supported by numeseus deposits. " The Directors have now the pleasing satisfaction of commmunicating to the Shareholders that notwithstand ing the expenses consequent on the purchase of the lease of the new house, as well as the necessary outlay in alterations and fitting up the offices they are enabled to recommend, out of the net-profits of the business of the Company, a dividend at the rate of 8 percent. per annum. " The Directors at the same time would beg strongly to impress upon the minds of the Shareholders, that by re commending the Institution to the notice of their friends, and inducing them to invest capital in its stock, they will add increased stability - to the undertaking, and by a general co-operation of interests enable it to take a high stand amongst the monetary institutions of the country. " In conclusion, the Directors suggest the propriety of issuing to the public two thousand unappropriated shares of the stock of the Company with a view to the increase of the present capital." The reading of the Report was followed by very great applause, which was vehemently repeated upon the read ing of the balance-sheet, by the same officer. From the latter we gathered that the operations of the Com • parry were exceedingly extensive, no less than 187,0001. having been advanced in loans, within three years. Mr. GRADY moved the first resolution, to the effect— " That the Report be received and adopted, and that this meeting authorize the payment of a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent.:per annum upon the shares of the Com pany from the period of its establishment, and that the said dividends be payable on and after the 31st day of March next."—(Loud and repeated applause.) It was his pleasing duty to offer to the meeting a few observations, previous to the resolutions being put from the chair. The statement which had been read by Mr. Williams showed them what had been done, and how much more the Institution was capable of effecting.— (Hear.) There was sufficient in that Report to convince every Shareholder, that, in the monetary system of this country, there was no mode in which he could invest his savings, with a greater prospect of securing to himself the comforts of life, than that afforded by this Company. —(Hear.) The principle on which it proceeded was not new ; but until lately it was not clearly understood, and the institutions formed on it had either passed away im mediately upon their formation, or had ultimately failed altogether to produce advantage to the Proprietors or the public. But the peculiarity of their Company was, that con sidering the mode of its operation, the extensive sphere of its action, and the number and character of those engaged in carrying its principles into effect, it was impossible to doubt of its success or its utility. Therefore it was that they were then called together, to agree to a dividend of 8 per cent.—(Applause.) It was strange that whilst every encouragement was given to the enterprise and associations of great merchants and wealthy capitalists, the legislature held out none to men of small capital to unite their funds.for the purposes of benevolence, and PATENT LEVER WATCHES. fl M. HOR.TON and CO., Watchmakers, • &c., 3i, Ludgate-street, St. Paul's, London (appo site Messrs. Everington and Ce.'s), offer to their friends and the public their celebrated PATENT LEVER WATCHES, capped and jewelled in four holes, double-bottom silver cases, maintaining power, &c., at Six Guineas ; and with 'three quarter-plates, Eight Guineas ; of workmanship the highest class of excellence, equal to those charged 25 per cent. higher.

A warranty with every Watch for twelve months. N. B. An immense Stock of Jewellery and Fancy Goods at 25 to 30 per cent. below the usual London charges. eie for inereasing th e i r own. means of property an d comfort. Yet they had the proof in this institution, that persons having individually but small sums to invest might, by their large numbers, produce large results, and obtain collectively and individually large profits. They had the proof this day that when many were thus associated their success was as certain as anything could be under the sun. He was not there to advocate those Associations, whose object was only to obtain high re turns for a small body of Proprietors, without any regard to general utility, or to affording small capitalists a good investment for their money.—(Hear.) It might appear • strange that an institutian like this should be able to di vide so much as six, or, as was the case in the present year, eight per cent. But it could be easily accounted for when it was understood that the money was continually turned in, though in little amounts—(Hear)—together with this, that those /Wes were always taken care of- - kept continually in motion--so that like the rolling snow ball, they grew bigger and bigger as they moved on.— (Hear, and laughter.. made this observation because he had seen in a r.: , • table newspaper, which always advocated the cause e• the middle** working classes, the - question raised as to.'` how there was so large a dividend obtained ?" Now, he trusted that when the mode was so easily explained, the conductors of the paper he al luded to would have the generositiy to acknowledge it.— (Hear, hear.) In connection eir* -pne department of this institution, he had an obsereatiOn to make respect ing the Savings' Banks.—(llear, hear.) Those banks might be considered part of the political institutions of this country, for they were not only established by a specific enactment of the Legislature, but they were di rectly connected with, and controlled by the Government. They were first instituted by voluntary associations such as this, " The Westminster Loan and Investment Joint Stock Company," and Government never gave them any assistance until it discovered that it could make them useful to itself, and then it was so contrived that the depositors became, in effect, lenders to the Government to the amount of 23,000,000/e --(Hear, hear)—and a little ill-feeling towards this Company, which he had the honour of addressing, might be ac counted for, because the Depositors or Shareholders were their own bankers—(lkar, hear.) But he had no doubt, for all that, that they would go on increasing in numbers, and extending their sphere of usefulness.—(Hear, hear,) They had no difficulty either in paying in their deposits, or in drawing out their capital and interest. 'Whereas, in Savings' Banks there were great difficulties in these respects. He had known the greatest incon ven i ence an d suffering to be occas i on ed t o depositors by those diffi culties. He had known many to be involved in expensive and vexatious law proceedings ; and, in some instances, lie had known respectable families to have been entirely ruined.—(Hear, hear, hear.) In one instance he had known a respectable family to be utterly ruined, because they could not get out in the regular time the sum of 43/. which had been deposited in the Savings' Bank. The money was wanted in an emergency to put a stop to ruinous law expenses. But when the week's notice required by law had been given, at the end of the week some technical irregularity was discovered, and a week's delay was occasioned. In the mean time an execution was put in upon the goods of the depositors by the successful opponent in the litigation, and when the money was at length got out of the bank, it was too late, for the business of that respectable family was de. stroyed and they were entirely ruined.—(Hear, hear.) Bat in this Institution the offs es were open all day and every day, and the deposits were received at all times, and in the smallest sums, so that the thrifty need not be for a day exposed to the tempta den of having their savings close at hand, to be dissi Fated at the impulse of any momeetary extravagance.— (Hear, hear.) And, besides, when an occasion arose for the immediate employment of the money, there was no delay iii withdrawing it.—(llear, hear.) The Learned Proprietor concluded an eloquent and animated speech amidst much applause. Mr. Bretz ler, the scientific member of the Society of Friends, seconded the resolution. Having dili gently examined the Institution in all its bearings he was enabled to say, that it was in every respect worthy of universal encouragement.—(Hear.) A great dramatic author had said, " Neither borrower nor lender be, For borrowing turns the edge of husbandry." But the result of this Institution proved that the poet was wrong, and that borrowing and lending may be good to both parties, and keep the edge, instead of turn ing it, of husbandry and every other branch of human industry.—( Applause and a laugh.) For his part, he had not, as yet, a large stake in the Institution, but he had learned enough to induce him to increase it. The resolution was carried unanimously, with cheers. Mr. H. KEESING moved the second resolution to the effect :—"That the best thanks of the Proprietors be given to the Directors for the able manner in which they have conducted the affairs of this Establishment, and espe cially to Ciiarles Kerry Nicholls, Esq., the Resident and Managing Director, for the zeal and talent evinced by him in the superintendence of the Lusiness of the Company." Mr. J. HOWELL seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclamation. Mr. Nielloees, on thelpart of colleagues and him self, for the honour done them by the resolution just passed, assured them • that he would continue the same exertions which they had so handsomely acknow ledged, and he hoped to be able, next year to give them a still more pleasing account of their affairs even than that which they had now received with.so much satisfaction. —(Applause.) Mr. GRADY had next to propose a resolution which to him, as a lawyer, was very gratifying, although he could hardly help doubting whether lie ought to be the first to thank solicitors for making out small bills of costs— (Hear, and a laugh)—still, as a Shareholder, he was bound to do so. The resolution which he had to propose was, " That the best thanks of the Shareholders be given to Messrs. hurrays, Rymer, and Murray, the soli citors who prepared the Company's deed of settlement, for the urbanity and liberal conduct evinced by them on all occasions towards this establishment." On looking over their charges, he was quite astonished at their moderation. —(Hear, hear.) For three years' work, including the deed of settlement, they had charged only 1501. Now the meeting would understand how much they were indebted to the solicitors for this, when he told them that he had known a deed of settlement of a Company to cost 850/.—(Hear, hear)—and the fair charges on deeds of settlement were generally so high, that a lawyer considered one it god-send, and cared little about any more business for the rest of the year. Mr. FOREMAN, of Lambeth, seconded the resolution, which was carried with applause. Mr. Ntemsees then moved, " That the thanks of this meeting be given to Mr. John Simpson, secretary, and to Mr. Charles William Williams, the actuary and ac countant, for their zeal anti attention." Mr. 13INHAm seconded the resolution, which was car ried unanimously, Thanks were then voted with great cordiality to C. K. Nicholls, Esq., for his conduct in the chair, and the meeting separated.

The mail reached Alexandria about midnight of the 14th, and was put on board the GOrgon, at 10 A.M., the following day. From China, in the Singapore. Free Press, extra of Friday noon, the 25th of November, 1841, the following is inserted : " Whilst our yesterday's number was in the act of being printed off, the Red Rover arrived from China, with papers to the 9th inst., containing intelligence con firmatory of the reports that had been. in circulation re garding the operations of the expedition to the northward. Tinghae, the capital of Chusan, was attacked and taken on the Ist of October, with considerable loss on the Chinese side. On the 10th, Chinhae, the seaport of Ningpo, was carried, and on the 13th, the city of Ningpo itself. At Amoy things have undergone a change. Symptoms of hostility are beginning to menifest them selves. Captain Smith has written that he is in expecta tion of an attack upon his position. Sir Pottinger, it is expected, would winter at Amoy, and the Ad m i ra l is looked fo r a t H ong Kong. No inese envoy up to the 25th had been sent to Sir H. Pottinger. At Canton hostile preparations were in progress ; the heights at Canton were fortifying, and, forts rebuilding and being built. Since the receipt of the above intelligence, a volunteer corps, 800 strong, from the Bengal 3d Regiment of Native Infantry, a troop of horse artillery, additional sappers anti miners, and a corps of 500 gun Lascars, from the Madras Presidency, have been ordered for ser vice in China. The force is immediately to consist of 10,000 men, and to march on' Pekin as soon as the south-west monsoon sets in. CALCUTTA. JAN. 9.—The Earl of Hardwicke has just arrived from China (Macao), which she left the Ist of December. No news except the reported capture of Hang-tchou-foo. All bustle here, embarking troops for China ; 16 transports engaged, 11,000 tons. The Canton Register says :—lt is becoming a sin gular sp ecu l at i on what will be the end of this bginning of war with China? Our own opinion is, that the Mantchow dynasty should be overthrown, another placed on the throne, and China be thrown open to all the world—this end, we think, would be infinitely preferable than to possess any portion of its territory under the present dynasty. Great fears were entertained at Macao that the Nerbudda transport, with 117 souls on board, had been lost. A boat from her, with 33 souls on board, chiefly soldiers, had been picked up. They reported that they had left the Nerbudda in a sinking state, having driven over a large reef off the north end of Formosa. The boat had been eight days at sea when picked up. The Nimrod sloop of war had gone in search of the Ner budda. Several learned Chinese have just become converts to the Gospel. One a distinguished poet, another one of the first literary men in the empire. (From the Chinese Repository for September.) SEPT. 10.—An imperial edict is in Canton, said to have been written after the despatch from Sir Henry reached Peking, and though not made public, is believed to be peaceable in its tenor, hinting that money and greater privileges of trade than existed formerly might be granted to bring about an amicable adjustment of existing d ec l ar i ng difficulties, but that no territ or y can be c,dd, and severely blaming the provincial autho rities for their late false reports. (From the Canton Register of Oct. 12.) RESIIEN.—This eminent personage, it is now beyond a doubt, has been doomed to be beheaded. Whether the sentence will be carried into execution we will not presume to say ; but the fact of condemnation to death of one of the imperial clan, both by blood and marriage, we believe, evinces the determination of the Cabinet of P,king to hold out a toute outrance against foreign do mination. MACAO.—There has been a good deal of sickness lately in the settlement, and many inhabitants and Chi nese have fallen victims to a kind of influenza which is travelling about. TRANSLATIONS. PEKING GAZETTES.-6th moon, 2d day (July 19). The Imperial will has been received. I order Keshen to be delivered over to the Great Council of the Imperial Kindred, who are to meet with the members of the Board of Punishments, and having determined from evidence his crime, to record it in a duly prepared report. Re spect this. The Imperial will has been received. I order that the already degraded from being a great Minister of State, Keshen, according to the sentence of the Great Council of the 'lmperial Kindred, be detained in prison until Autumn (9th moon, October 15 to September 12), when he is to be beheaded according to his sentence. Re spect this. - The Register says, that four or five English gentlemen, attached to English firms, were still at Canton, and adds the following : Canton was, on the 9th inst., as open to British as to neutral merchants. It is so now, and we thi n k i t w i ll continue so to be. Any British merchant will be as safe in Canton as any neutral. That they do not choose to go and conduct their business there is their own affair. If, (e o b f us triees por t s wit h would v o u the l d indeed, 'the Hons. merchants were to flatly refuse to tbßritoce o t m a e n r c e h w an q t u s e , s t t h io e n n based on enti re ly new grounds ; the truce and its terms would not then b e regarded. It is not improbable that hraenbsacloctka any this refusal may soon be declared ; and then her Ma jesty's officers will pursue that course which their duty dictates. (From the Canton Register.) There is reason to think the mandarins are meditating mischief. Captain ,in passing Napier's fort yes terday, saw a mandarin there, with numerous attendants, apparently taking a survey of the place, and giving direc tions ; and the persons who are up to-day from Wham poa, report that they passed at least 200 boats (mandarin and gun-boats), collected there. The Hong merchants say they know nothing of what the mandarins are about. The Hong merchants have been a little uneasy from a report which is somewhat cnrrent, that there is to be an edict forbidding the people to use British goods and teas to be brought to the sea coast for sale. A letter in the Register, signed Henry H o l gate, d en i es the alleged p reva l ence of disease at Hong Hong, says, that there is no malaria, and that the health of the troops is improving, none having been ordered on board the transports. The native population is estimated at nearly twelve thousand. (Correspondence of the Express.) MACAO, OCT. 13.—The mate and one of the hands of a British smuggler were decoyed on shore, near Chusan, and murdered by the mandarins ; in consequence of which, we are told, the crew of several of the smuggling vessels lauded, and with the assistance of the crew of her Majesty's steamer Phlegethon, burnt a village and killed all the Chinese they could get at. At Amoy affairs remained quiet, and many of the inhabitants had returned there. No edicts have of late been received from Pekin. Sir Henry I'ottinger is expected to return when the expedition shall have gone into winter quarters, pro bably in the course of the next month ; and from the tone of the proclamation issued by him, on his arrival here, there is reason to believe that some steps will be taken to punish the Chinese for their violation of the treaty, in endeavouring to ;block the channels of the river, in which they are still engaged. THE LEVANT MAIL The Malta Times says:l " On Monday, the 7th, a grand fancy ball was given at the Palace by his Excellency the Governor, Sir H. F. Bouverie, which was attended by a large assembly of the rank, fashion, and beauty of Malta. The magnificent hall of St. Michael and St. George, with the adjoining suites of apartments were thrown open at half-past nine o'clock, and soon after they were crowded by a party coloured throng, in which, though the red and blue of the army and navy predominated among the gentlemen, there was a very fair sprinkling of characters, whilst the ladies had dipped the pencil of their fancy into all the hues of the rainbow in honour of the occasion." We find the following in the Malta Times of the 15th instant : " A fatal duel took place on Wednesday, the 9th in stant, at about twelve o'clock, behind Fort Ricasall, be tween Lieut. Ada ms , o f h er M a j es ty' s 88 t h Regiment, and Capt. Levi c k, o f h er M a j es t y ' s 59th R eg i ment, and now on the retired list. The seconds were Capt. Jef freys, of the 88th, and Lieut. Mattel, of the Royal Malta Fencibles. Lieut. Adams expired on the evening of the 10th, his adversary's ball, after fracturing the small bone of his right arm, having penetrated his sid e . M any are the statements given as to the par particulars of thi s un h appy affair, but we abstai n f rom entering into any before the result of the investigation now carried on is made public. This unpleasant affair seems to have originated in Capt. Levick's supposing Lieut. Adams to have insulted one of his daughters on the last day of Carnival. Cap tain Levick and Lieutenant Mattel have b een arreste d , and are now und ergo i ng a trial of investigation. Cap tain Jeffreys is stated to have left the island on the evening of his principal's death. This fatal event is generally lamented. The deceased was, we are informed, a most amiable young man, and generally beloved by h i: brother officers.

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO PORTS MOUTH. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 27, 1842.—The town is beginning to fill fast with distinguished people, waiting the arrival of the Queen and Court to-morrow ; a salute from the garrison about three o'clock, announced the arrival of the Admiralty Board, consisting of the Earl of Had dington, Vice-Admiral Sir George Cockburn, Vice- Admiral Sir William Grey, and the principal Secretary, the Hon. Sydney Herbert. The Board has taken up its quarters at the George Inn, and to-day entertained a small party of naval officers to dinner. The Duke of Wellington comes in by the last railroad train from Ba singstoke, near which town his Grace's seat of Strath fieldsaye is situated ; he will spend the evening with his brother-in-law, the Hon. Sir Hercules Pakenham, our Lieutenant -Governor ; the Duke, as a Field-Marshal, being entitled to the compliment, will be saluted by the garrison to-morrow morning. A splendid Guard of Honour is selected to receive her Majesty on her alight from her carriage in the Dockyard, consisting of the grenadier companies of the 32d, 34th, and 73d Regi ments, and a company of Royal Marines, under the command of the senior Major of the Garrison, Major Van der Meulon, of the 73d Regiment. The ropemakers last evening successfully put in their claim to the ancient privilege of receiving the Sovereign at the boundaries of the borough, and of escorting her to her residence within the town. In 1794, when George the Third visited the Fleet at Spithead, after the battle of the Ist of June, the ropemakers and riggers then took the horses from the King's carriage, three miles out of the town, and drew him into the Dock-yard. In 1814, when the Prince Regent entertained the Allied Sovereigns at Ports mouth, these workmen walked in procession before and at the sides of the carriage : what their gallantry may lead them to do to-morrow for a Lady-Queen, remains to be seen. The garrison gates will be closed and locked ; and at the foot of the glacis the Lieutenant- Governor will deliver to her Majesty the keys of the fortress, and wait her instructions to open the entrance, a duty which the Town Major will have to perform. The Admiralty flag wilt - be hoisted to-morrow on board the Alfred, at Spithead. The Dock-yard is closed to morrow to all civilians, and no officers will be allowed admittance unless in uniform; this is done that her Ma jesty may not be inconvenienced by a crowd. Several vans arrived this morning by the rail from Windsor, with necessaries for the Queen and her suite. It is ex pected that Commodore J. B. Purvis will be knighted f)r steering the Queen, also Major Van der Meulon, com manding the guard of honour, and Captain G. T. Rich, commanding the Queen, should her Majesty visit that ship ; and Colonel G. Jones, commanding this division of marines. Several promotions will also take place, such as the officers of the Black Eagle and Royal George yachts, the Admiralty flag-ship, and the Commanders and First Lieutenants, and senior Masters of the other flag ships. Her Majesty is expected to reach the Dock yard at one o'clock ; and it will depend on the state of the weather whether she will go afloat then, or on the following day. A general illumination will take place to-morrow night, and as the railway has brought us several itinerant lamplighters, with their stocks in trade of lamps and devices, we expect a brilliant show ; the St. Vincent and Victory, first rates, will be illuminated about nine in the evening with Captain Stevens's new blue and red and green light, also showers of rockets will be thrown by those ships, the splendour of which will be viewed by her Majesty and Princ e Alb ert from the top of Si r Edward Codrington' s house, where the Queen will entertain a select party. LONDON GRAND JUNCTION RAIL WAY. A General Meeting of the Shareholders in this Company was held yesterday, at 6, Basinghall-strtet, for the purpose of sub mitting to the Shareholders the Directors' report, and a state ment of the accounts. Mr. Fist! took the chair. The SECRETARY then read the report, which merely stated that three Directors went out of office by rotation, but were eligible for re-election, and that the accounts were, cash paid, 64/. 45.; cash in hand, 3,9251. 10s. 7d ; together with various amounts for interests, &c., leaving a balance in the hands of the Company of 4,0071. 7s. 11d. The CHAIRMAN said they would perceive that in the Report they had been as brief as possible, inasmuch as they had nethir,g to say. They were determined to use economy in every thing, and at the next meeting he expected to have to submit further reductions in the expenditure, as the rent would be reduced, together with the Secretary's salary. The SECRETARY, in answer to the question, said, that 1,510 shares had been forfeited, and that there were 7,600 bona fide shares on which the calls had been paid up. The original number of registered shares was 9,360. A PROPRIETOR inquired if there were any new features in the Company. The CHAIRMAN said, they had talked about new features so long that they did not wish anything more on the subject. A SHAREHOLDER said he understood that the Birmingham Railway Company were about to remodel their station. The CHAIRMAN said he supposed that remodelling was meant taking in the other side of the yard. It had been re ported that the Northern and Eastern Railway Company were coming near to Kings Cross, and that it was their intention of going to the North of England without taking the Birmingham line. They (the London Grand Junction Railway Company) had been invited to join this scheme, but they were averse to g o i n t o new expenses. The CHAIRMAN, in answer to a question frown a Share holder, said they were getting 5 per cent. for their deposits in a Joint-stock Bank. He then moved that the Report theis read be received and adopted, which was carried. The CHAIRMAN then moved that certain shares, declared forfeited at the last meeting, be confirmed, which was carried. The then Directors were then re-elected, and thanks having been voted to the Chairman, the meeting separated having sat twenty minutes. --- WATERLOO BRIDGE. , The Adjourned General Meeting of the Shareholders and Proprietors of Waterloo-bridge was held yesterday, at the Crown and Anchor Tavern; about half-past one o'clock the Chair was taken by the Rev. Dr. Rush. The minutes of the proceedings having been read, Mr. POWELL read the Report of the Directors, stating the various sums received in cash monthly from February 1840, to February 1841, the average receipts per day, and their increase or declension, and contrast ing them with the receipts in each month, from February, 1841, to 23d February, 1842. It appeared then that the receipts for foot-toll from 23d Feb., 1840, to 23d August, 1840, which were at Id. amounted to 5,340/. 2s. 10d., and from 24th August, 1840 to 23d Feb., 1841, they amounted to 4,855/. 7s. 4d. making the total receipts for that year 10,195/. 10s. 2d., which at Id. each passenger, showed that 2,446,922 persons passed over the bridge in that year. Then the receipts from the 23d of February; 1841, to 23d Feb., 1842, which were at one halfpenny each passenger amounted to 9,4441. 3s. 2d., which showed that the num ber of persons passing over the bridge during that year was 4,533,218 ; being an increase, as contrasted with the preceding year, of 2,086,296 persons. The Directors, inasmuch as the declension in the re ceipts was every day decreasing, decided that the pre sent toll of one halfpenny should be continued, and stated that they saw no necessity for resorting to the original toll of one penny. Mr. H. COPE, in movirg that the Directors' Re port be affirmed, said that the recommendation con tained in it with respect to continuing the present toll had not been as yet sufficiently tested ; but at all events the losses were not so great as to prevent the trial of it for some time longer. If the Proprietors attempted to return to the old toll of Id. the public would inveigh against them more than ever, and particularly as there was a new bridge being erected, instead of Waterloo-bridge realizing a large sum by the penny toll, he thought its receipts would be very considerably diminished if it was adopted. The Report showed the great increase of traffic, and he had great pleasure in proposing its adoption, because he was convinced that her Majesty's 59th regiment, and has a large family, now plunged in the deepest affliction. Captain Jeffreys is a gentlemanly and kind-hearted man, enjoying the es teem of a large circle of respectable friends, and Lieut. Mattei is also much esteemed by all the officers of the garrison, as well as his own countrymen. " Another account of the duel is thus given by a cor respondent at Malta : " Lieut. Adams threw some plums at Mr. Levick's daughters. Mr. Levick instantly struck him, which was returned. In the evening Mr. Levick sent a challenge, and next day they met, Mr. Levick accompanied* by Lieut. Mattel, Lieut. Adams by Captabt.Tofferys. Lieut. Adams was wounded, and the foltawing . day expired. Captain Jefferys escaped to Sicily ; :Mr. Levick and his second are both in gaol. They pf?iiitively denied all knowledge of th e d uel ; but this day Dr. Cross, of the 88th, who attended at the duel, has turned kintr's evi dence, on promise of pardon. It is generally believed that Lieut. Adams, from some moral feeling, would' not fire at any person. At the &St fire, Mr. Levick's ball passed close .to him ; Lieut. Adams pointed in the air but his pistol missed fire. Here it ought to have ended, unfortunately, they again loaded. Mr. Levick's ball passed through his opponent's arm, and into his side, lodging in his liver ; he fired wide. The funeral of Lieut. Adams was attended by every person of respect ability." SOUTH AMERICA. FALMOUTH, FEB. 26.—The Tyrian packet arrived here this morning with the Mexican mails, no passen gers, having on freight 170,000 dollars, of which 18,603 dollars are on account of the Mexican dividends. This packet does not appear to bring anything politically new. Her dates are Vera Cruz, the Bth of January, where she left the British ship of war Tweed ; Tampico, 19th Ja nuary ; and .Havanna, 2d February. Exchange at Vera Cruz on London, 60 days' sight, 47id, and on Paris, same date, sf. se. Don Calderon della Barca, late Spanish Minister in Mexico, came passenger with his family from Vera Cruz to the Havanna. Th: ex-President, Bustamente, arrived at the Ha vanna, from Vera Cruz, in the Spanish brig of war, Jason, on the Ist February ; and the steamer Tay, with the January mails from England, arrived at the Havanna at the same date, all well. =►MEETING AT LINCOLN. FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) I enclose jou a requisition, to the Mayor, calling a meeting on the sit' ject of the Corn-laws. It took place in the Guild hall, and was one of the lar: est meetings ever known in this city ; scores went aw..y unable to gain admittance. A resolu tion for their otal and immediate repeal, and an extension of the suffrage was carried by a large majority. Mr. Cobden was unanimously requested to present the petition, wince is al ready numerously signed. Distress exists here to a grievous extent among the labouring population, and the trade never more depresed. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—We have seen with considerable as tonishment, not umningled with disgust, an account in a contemporary paper of the committal to prison, by a Magistrate in Gloucestershire, of two boys under the age of thirteen, for the t ru l y j uvenile delinquency o f s t ea li ng a few apricots. The ino rance of country Justices is often a subject of re mark, and sometimes ofridicule ; but when the obsti nate stupidity of these persons has an effect so awful as the ultimate destruction of all Moral principle in the youthful mind, it becomes a matter no longer for sarcasm or contempt, but for vigorous interference, in order to check an evil so dangerous to the best in terests of society. It may be considered a grave accu sation that we are about to make, but we hold respon sible for every crime that a boyish culprit may in his riper roguery commit, the Magistrate who has doomed to the contamination ofa prison a child who has perpetrat ed some juvenile offence which the rod would have suffi ciently punished. To say.nothing of the undue harsh ness of sending to gaol the son of a poor person, for an offence which in the child of richer parents would be regarded as venial—to leave out of the queition alto gether the odious practice of dealing out punishment to high and low by a most unequal measure—there is, beside the temporary injustice, a deep and permanent wrong in dooming to moral destruction the youth in whom the seeds of error have begun to show them selves. But the wretched individuals themselves are not the only persons injured by the severe and injudi cious manner in which they are dealt with ; for society. also suffers by the great additional amount of crime that is thus nurtured into maturity from the early seeds of vice, which when transplanted into the soil of a prison are sure to spring up in rank luxuriance. That such will be the case is no mere supposition, but a proved and admitted fact ; for all who have paid attention to the subject of prison discipline agree in testi.. fying to the truth of our assertion, that th e at mosphere of a g ao l commun i cites a deadly: contamina tion to the mind of youth, which, whenonce infected, seldom regains a state of purity. STANDARD. —We have received a copy of the Manchester Guardian, containing a report of a mill owners' meeting, at which it seems to have been agreed to assail the House of Commons with a forty- Cobden power, and, failing that instrument of dull aggression, to commence a civil war. Madness is a mild name for the furious distemper into which the millowners have been thrown by Mr. Ferrand's speech. The raving of the millowners can be so properly compared to nothing as to the agonies of the Domdaniel, when visited by the destined destroyer-- " An anguish yell ensued, And sure no human voice had scope or power For that prodigious shriek, Whose pealing echoes thundered through, tile den,' Dim grew thy dying light." Aye, and dimly . burns the light of the factory Moloch. An inference from Mr. Perrand's ex posure seems to have reached every one—it is, le ss than the sake of the manufacturing trade itself, no less than for the honour of the country, a much stricter attention must be given by the Legislature to the millowners. It will probably be thought necessary to examine, and to brand manufactured goods, intended for exportation, as some kinds of provisions are exa mined and branded, •in order to save the character of the sountry ; but more of this hereafter, when we can examine a little more in detail the Manchester. Guardian report. .COURlER.—Elsewhere we copy from our able Weekly. Contemporary, the Conservative Journal, a remarkable case of pauper felony which lately curred at Stockport, and of which the de tails are given, as they transpired in the Police Court, in the respectable and leading Paper of that locality, the Stockport Advertiser. The facts briefly are, that an unhappy pauper girl was taken before the Mayor on a charge of felony, by the authorities of the workhouse, she having audaciously adventured, out of her own poor pittance, to hoard up 21bs. of bread in one week, which, considering it to be her own property, as being the creation of her own savings at the ex pense of her own craving appetite, she carried out of the house, as a mite for the relief of a sister, Still more wretched and in want than herself; and she carried it away not clandestinely, but openly, and with the full knowledge of the matron •at least, to whom she exhibited the miserable prize she was bearing away. After a solemn hearing upon the merits before his honour the Mayor, this extraor dinary culprit was discharged with an injunction to go and sin no more, and the penalty of imprisonment to which she was liable, according to the strict construction of the law, was beneficently remitted. We however should rather have considered this kind hearted subject of New Poor-law mercies richly en titled to a civic crown, not only as a tribute demanded by such a noble and disinterested example of self sacrifice to the charities and affections of kind, but as the record of so remarkable and almost unparal leled an achievement, the forlorn hope of economical enterprise, as the accumulation and abstraction of a positive surplus of 2lbs. of bread out of that- hard measure of supply which, after long and puzzling calculations and endless • paring down, has been determined by the new Poor-law sages of Somerset House and their cunning secretary, to be somewhere about the exact point of demarcation where soul and body may possibly be kept together; but the merest line beyond which enters within the domain, and is the incipient stage of quasi starvation.

The young Princess of Hesse Darmstadt, wh• lately married the heir to- the throne of all the Hussies, was surprised by the following ruse on the art of her imperial father-in-law :--On being conducted to leer apartments, she found them completely furnished, even to the most minute details of footstools, &c., exactly in the same sty's as the suite of rooms of her own Castle of 'Darmstadt. On the drawing.. rosin table was placed a small silver bell. The Emperor re quested the Princess to try , whether the bell had the same sound as that which she had at Darmstadt. The Princess shook the bell, when suddenly the doors were thrown open," and all the old and faithful servan s to whom she had hid adieu, and whom she thought were then in the Castle at Darmatadt, rushed in, and overshelmed the Princess with their ace-lama, tions of joy, being still allowed to serve her. the present toll, together with affording more accomods tion to the public, would be of advantage to the Proprie tors. He also thought the Directors were entitled to the thanks of the Company and public for giving the matter so much consideration, and for making the suggestions contained in their Report. Mr. MORGAN concurred in the obserTations4hich had been made by the proposer of •the resolution, and se conded its adoption. Mr. SANGSTER was opposed to the !notion. He was very sorry the toll had ever been reduced at all. The Company were going on safely and well until the toll was reduced to one halfpenny ; they were induced to do so, having been told that they would not only-double, but treble,- their revenue, and, in fact, that they would hate then had 250,000/. more in their pockets if they had imposed a halfpenny toll from the commencement ; all that calculation was untrue ; instead of their revenues being doubled, or at all increased, they were several hundred pounds less this year than the receipts for a corresponding period during the penny toll. The public had no right to think or expect the Pro prietors- could continue a system which caused such losses, and certainly it could not for a moment be sup posed that the Proprietors were called upon, in justice, reason, or equity, to keep the toll lower than Id. The Proprietors had expended a very large sum in the erec tion of one of the most beautiful and ornamental struc tures in the world, and all they expected was a moderate • interest for their money. They did not get anything like that ; they scarcely got 1 per cent. for their capital. The loses sustained were enormous, and certainly the Proprietors had every reason to complain that the public (lid not support them, instead of the public having reason to complain or inveigh against them for returning back to the penny toll. Surely the public could not expect to put 'Waterloo Bridge on a level with a petty, pittiful, beggarly hatch. --(Laughter.) On the whole, be was' of opinion th a t th e or i g i na l toll of one penny should be re sined from .and. after the 15th of March next, and he would propose an amendment to that effect. Mr. BUTTERWORTH seconded the umendxnent an Act of Parliament was passed for the purpose 'of purchasing the Bridge, as he believed it was in the con tAaplation of (3 owrinnent to do—it would be the in terest of the Proprietors to increase their receipts as much as possible, and he thought that the beet mode of effecting that object was to resume the penny toll. Mr JENKINS thought that recurring to the penny toll would be a very hazardous thing. Mr SAVAGE and other Proprietors having expressed their opinions in favour of the existing toll, The resolution, adopting the Directors' recommenda tion, was carried by a large majority—there being only five in support of the amendment. The meeting adjourned at half-past two o'clock to Thursday, 2d of June next. MACKINTOSHES SUPERSEDED.
