This Company is formed for the purpose of carrying on, as _a joint-stock enterprise, the well known engineering works of r. Henry Grissell, situate In the Eagle Wharf-road, ifecent'a_ Cana!, London. 31r. Grissell's works cover a space of 2i acres of land, and possess a frontage of 700 feet on the Eagle Wharf -road, with clearly the same extent of water frontage. I _ 3 ,eing situated on the Regent's Canal, they are connected with the Tha saes and with all the railways which run into i,ondon, and are other- Wise admirably adapted to the raiuirements of the business to be conducted therein. Th'.iyare now in full operation, and the Company will thus at once enter upon an existing and profitable business. It is intended to „cork, in conjunction with this business, some valuable 1 311 , , ,ents which the Company have arran ge d t o quire for improvements in. an important class of steam agricultural machinery, for which there le a largely increas ing demand at home and abroad, and for the manufacture of Which these premises are well adapted. The Regent's Canal Iron Works were established by Mr. Grissell in the year 1844, and since that time have been most successfully carried on under his immediate supervision. For heavy and exp ens i ve cast i ngs, and for iron bridges, and the like, his works stand unrivalled. He has founded, in conneo with these works, an extensive continental as well as Rome connection. Within the last few years many important engineering establishments have been transferred from private hands to form the basis of joint-stock enterprise, and with the most Marked success. Amongst these may be named the works of AIL John Ashbury, now The Ashlaury Iron and Waggon Company of Manchester ; the works of Mr. J o h n B arrow, of Etaveley, now The Staveley Iron and Coat Company (limited); and those of Mr. John Brown, now known as John Brown and Company, of Sheffield. The shares of all these are at a Very large premium. The terms upon which the Directors have engtged to pur chase Mr. Grissell's works, are founded upon a valuation suede by Messrs. Fuller and Horsey, and are most satisfac tory. Mr. Grissell has agreed to leave in the business a con derable portion of the purchase money, and for the present to take upon himself the respon , ibilities of Managing Director. The shareholders will incur no liability beyond the amount of shares allotted to them. Applications for shares must tie made upon the annexed form. Each applicant will be re quired to pay into the, bankers of the Company £1 per share on the number of shares applied for, and upon allotment to make a further payment of £2 per share on the shares allotted to him.

A Private Company was established in 1857, under the narne of the Hudiksv a ll St eam Sawing Mill Company taking ed), for th e purchase of forests in Sweden, and the 'citing of gr ants or leases or other title to such forests, with the right of selling the same ; the completion of water com munications for floating timber from the forests to Foresa, and thence to Hudiksvall : erecting steam and water sawing anions for converting the timber into deals, and the sale of such deals at Hudiksvall, or the consignment of them tor s a l e to Lo ndon or other places. . The present Co m p any i s f ormed for the purpose of extend ing the operations of the above-mentioned Hudiksvall Steam Sawing Mill Company, the shareholders in the Hudiksvall Stearn Sawing Milt Company being willing to take payment for the whole of the capital invested by them in pata.up shares of the new Company. Considerable and valuable forests in the pariah '.',i Lillherr dal in the vicinity of the Herje and Ljusne riven in the pro- Vince of Jemptland, also in Flirila, have P ; leases for 50 years, renewable every to r- ..een secured upon of 50 ye a rs, without fine to the lessor% ' .are durin g th e term These forests cover ing between 300 and 40) English enuare miles, or 200,000 to 250,000 acres, are, from he gee ' forests, supposed to be of me _,eral advance in the value of Were At the time of th e r ' - ch greater value now than th e y (_'Zpended in making darehase.

The water communications between Swin ,,.Amer and the Mill have been moat substantially eon ' zucted, under the direction of Commissioners appointed by the Swedish Government, and consist of ducts and canals— one of which has been cut through the solid rock—and in cludes a hauling bed, worked by a steam engine, for the pur pose of n the logs to a ier , about 40 teet, from raisi which point floating a there is fall gained of upwards of 340 feet, extending over this line of water communication,with an ample supply of water all the year round. These works have corn a large sum of money beyond the original estimate, be cause the Government insisted upon their being constructed n!',011 a much larger scale, i n or d er to make them available for alrea the public in general, This additi onal outlay, however, has dy begun to bear good fruits, since a profit has been ties 'cleared during the last year by flo a ti ng t i m b er for other par , which Bernice of revenue is likely still further to reduce the floating expenses. About £22,700 have been expended en the steam sawing -mill and engines, with workshop com plete, *which are of the best English workmanship, in excel lent condition, and capable of sawin g a b out 1,000 logs per b e y, thus showing the magnitude o f th e works. £3,60 , have been expended at Forssa, Lillherrdal, and other places, for Labourers, dwellings and storehouses ; they are all substan tia,lly built, and and f ree h o ld property, as well as the saw mill, the enti re li ne of water communication between Swin arnmer and Forssa, the deal yards at Foresa, sundry farms, and the shipping et harf in the pot of Hudiksvall. The deals are brought by railway, about eight antics, to Hudiksvall, one of th e best natural ports in Sweden. Prom various causes the arra ngements were not completed before the year 1862, and thus the year 1 863 i s, i n fact, the Year in which the capabilities of the wont; have been tested, and upwards of 6,000 stand ar d s o f deals, of shipping quality, Were actually produced and sold, th e qua li ty b eing generally Itp_proved of in the L on d on markets and elsewhere. ln order to make all the capacities of the works available, Which are, without any further outlay for plant and Ins ehinery, equal to the production of 8,000 standards of deals of shipping quality per annum, it is intended to create 3,200 shares of £5O each, 1,500 of which will be taken by the share holders of the Hudiksvall Steam Sawing-mill Company, who are willing to take payment for the whole amount invested bY them in paid-up shares. The remaining* 1,0 shares are now offered to the public. If the capital o the Company is extended to £200,000, it would be for the purpose of inoreas -I.ellng the baole oe prations of the Company, which i s not De , any means _pro.

TEMPORARY OPPIbES. 7A, Lawrence Pountney-hill, Cannon-street, E.C. The Company is formed for the purchase of the extensive estates of Robertsfors and Fredriokefor comprising about 150,0 0 acres of freehold and crown lands, with large forests and agricultural dtstriets,as also timber andiron works, ship bui ding yards, &0., and which are situated in the county of West Botten, in Sweden, five English miles from the harbour, belonging to the estate, called Shwa,* io e the Gulf of Pothole; and also to extend the presen manufacture of iron, intro duce Bessemer's steel process, so as to produce on the spot, from the pure Swedish iron ore and charcoal, a quality of steel adapted for rails, ship-building, locomotive engine tires, axles, shafts, and oth er machinery, boiler plates, armour plates for hies, cannon s , mortars, c., and for all other pur poses where it has proved desirable to substitute Bessemer steel for iron. It is also intended to extend the yearly pro duce of timber for export, to build ships, and work the other resources of the estate in such manner as may be found most boneficial to the interests of the shareholders. The Bwedi h bar and pig iron is j ustly celebrated in the vari ous markets of the world. At the International Exhibition of 1862, no less than fifteen exhibitors from Sweden received medals for different kinds of iron and iron manufactures, among which was part of an iron ship that had struck on a rock, and which was entirely bent without breaking or injaring the iron in any way, thus establishing its great superiority for ship plates. It has been repeatedly stated in our public journals—" The Times," " Mining Journal," and other leading and se entitle organs —that we cannot as yet do without Swedish Iron. The present propriet ors h ave b ut to a sma l l extent deve loped all the re sou vNis at their command, having derived an a verage annual income of about £B,OOO sterling from the p r ofits obtained by g the a - • ye employing only a moderate capital. Thus li _. eerae arly p rodu of charm .1 bar iron been .sited to 620 tons, at a cost price of £7 ss. per ton. has Freight hitherto paid from Sikea to England by timber vessels, 10s. per ton ; other expenses, about Is.; making a total of £7 16s. per ton, sleliVered in England, where the market price of such iron now ranges from£ i2 lOB. to £l3 per ton—thus leaving a nett profit of at least L 4 17e. per ton. No pig iron is at pre sent sold from the property, and all the bar iron has of late years been contracted for by a large firm (who are willing to contract for more than double the quantil y) in France, where it is considered one of the most superior qualities of Swedish iron, and used for cutlery and other fine manufactures. One of that firm has lately visited Sweden for the purpose of making a contract for a series of years. The present average produce of timber has also been limited to about 27,000 dozen planks, which have been sold at an average profit eif 2s. tper dozen —leaving a nett profit of £2,700 sterling. It is proposed to erect at a cost of about £16,000, converting furnaces for the production of steel by the Bessemer process, up to 200 tons per week, according to requirements, and as may be found desirable. The cost of steel ingots will not exceed £9 per ton, delivered in England ; and as the present selling price is £l5 per ion, a nett profit is left of £6 per ton, which, with a production of 200 tons per week, would give an annual profit of £62,400, or equal to 41b per cent. on the capital of the first issue, on steel alone, besides what would accrue from the other resources. Dried wood has lately been used with great success and economy as a substi tute for charcoal. There is no - doubt. that Bessemer steel will ultimately supersede wrought iron in all such manufactures ; and it is with a view to this that the Company intend to devote con siderable attention to its production in a locality where it can be made from the very best materials. he returns may fairly be estimated as follows: — a. Net animal returns of present proprietors, .£8,963, say b. Profit on 200 tons of Bessemer's steelper week at £6 per t0n.... 62,400 Z 71,300 5,300 Deduct for expenses of management, cto. Net £66,000 or 44 per cent. on the first issue of capital, £1150,000, without calculating on any extension of the trade in bar and hoop iron, timber, deals, ship-building, and produce of cast steel for tools, Am, for which there is a ready market. It will thus be clearly seen that the iron an i timber works, with the improvements proposed by this Company, and all the other available resources posses .ed by these estates, will yield a very large and certain profit when English capital and skill are brought to bear upon them, There is ample water power on the estates (the Rieklea river, which is made available for saw -mills, various machi neries for iron manufactures, dm., and also a flour mill. There are on the estates iron foundries, iurnaces, forges (iron and brass), workshops, stores and warehouses, dwelling houses for workmen, mechani s, and foremen; offices, and stabling for forty-five horses, and a large farming stock (in cluding 140 cows). At the ship-building yards there are newly-built hou es for inspectors, shipwrights, and work men. The produce of timber may be considered unlimited, con sisting as it does of a large extent of virgin forests. The vendors have agreed to accept £50,0, 0 for the whole - or' the estates. The stock in trade as well as iron, charcoal, &0., in store, to be taken at a valuation according to the books, will amount to about £20,000. As both the mines and iron works are already in active operation, the profits will accrue to the Company from the date of purchase. The whole of the property, mines, works, &c., have been carefully surveyed by an eminent engineer, Mr. Franz Hoff man ; and on his report his Majesty the King of Sweden has granted permission to form a joint-stock company, and con firmed the valuation of the property at Rgs. D. 1,000,000 Swedish, or £55,550 sterling. NOTE.—The proprietors offer to reserve for themselves the Ith share of the tiaggaro iron mines, part of the property proposed to be sold, at a drawback of 45,000 from the pur chase money of the estate, should the Company wish them to do so. The magnetic iron ore, which can be obtained in any quantity from these mines, is of the same quality as that from which the famous Dannemora iron is produced. It has been analysed by the well-known firms of Messrs. Johnson, Matthey, and Co., and Messrs. Griffith and Barton, assayers, and found to contain 08 per cent of good pig iron. It is entirely free from sulphur. The capital of the Company has been fixed at £300,000, in 15,0.0 shares of £zo each. It is not proposed to include more than £150,000 in the first issue, as after paying the purchase money for the property and stock, and the cost of erecting the Bessemer furnaces and paying all preliminary expenses, about £OO,OOO will be left as a working capital. to be called up as it may be required, until the Company shall consider it desirable to further extend their operations, The articles of asso3lation, with plans of the estates and samples, may be inspected at the Offices of the Company, where also all the details respecting the properties may be had on application. Prospectuses and forms of application may be obtained of fhe bankers, brokers, and at the Offices of the Company. • This harbour is capable of accommodating the largest vessels—being one of the best in the north of Sweden, close to the open sea, and sheltered from winds, so that ships can load and discharge in all weathers.

STAMPEU,....Sd. Death of " Manhattan," "M. Le Comte,—The Conference of Lolidon has separated without having restored peace. 'Yhe tral Cabinets have not succeeded in bringi:ig the allied Powers to a more just appreciation of their duties towards the political system of Europe. We have stretched to their furthest limits the conditions indispensable to the existence of an independent e.nd autonomous Danish State. But nothing has been able to satisfy the ambitious views of the German Powers. ( From the Morning Herald.) President Lincoln may lay aside his file of Standards and breathe afresh. Major• General Dix, Commander of the Eastern Division in the city ct New York, may recover his wonted composure. Ambassadors Dayton and Adams may smooth their knitted brows, and the placemen of Washington may rejoice as though a veritable victory had crowned the Federal arms. " Manhattan" is dead! The well known and long familiar nom do plume will no more greet the eye of the reader as ho takes np the broad sheet of the Standard. Fort Lafa yette has not closed its hideous gates on the daring writer, nor has Richmond received an unexpected exile. The controversy which so suddenly rose between our intrepid correspondent and the North ern Government has been out short by the hand of death. Arrest and parole are at an end, and "Man hattan" has stepped on to the arena of another world, beyond the reach of President or provost. It may be feared that his recent difficulties with the Federal Government have tended to hasten the demise of oar valued correspondent. His health had been failing for some weeks; but he was scarcely past the prime of life, being only in his 50th year, and at the time of hie interview with Major General Dix exhibited no such symptoms as would have obviously indicated a fatal issue. But death has come, and the stroke was sudden. Four.. teen days after the above.mentioned interview "Manhattan" expired, with little previous warning, breathing his last in his own dwelling. What might have been the result of his collision with the Govern ment had he been spared to live it is vain to specu late. But his departure from the scene is a loss to the cause of political truth and honesty. His tear less pen was a scourge to the horde of peculating politicians who are the curse of the Repubiic ; and the citizens of the North might well turn to his letters as published in our columns in order to see a picture of their affairs more faithful to the fact than any exhibited nearer home. No writer held up the mirror to the face of society with less of tremor and compromise than " Manhattan." An oat-spoken expression of his own convictions was characteristic of the man. He might be rough, but he was faithful, and was worth a host of more cautious scribes who found it easy to avoid his faults by renouncing his merits. The English reader, while perusing the rapid and crowded sketches of oar lively correspondent, might often differ from the writer, bat never failed to receive a vivid impression of the actual scenes portrayed by that graphic pen. The style was eccentric, bat it was eminently a readable style, and "Manhattan" was unquestion• ably a correspondent of " the people." He wrote in the vernacular, and the freedom which might expose him to the criticism of the pedant gave him more ready access to the minds of the masses. " The line of conduct we have pursued at the Conference has been stamped from first to last with the most sincere desire of arriving et an agrcement„ even were it only to be obtained by the saeriLe of incontestible rights. "When the Conference thought a suspension of arms essential to the success of the negotiations, we submitted to a truee, concluded at the most un favourable time, and upon conditions which, very onerous in themselves, became intolerable on account of the arbitrary manner in which they were .inter. preted by the military authorities of the enemy. In the negotiation we found the allied Powers oath°. ritatively decline all discussion upon the engage. ments entered into by both parties of 1851 and 1852, and yet the allies had alleged these same engagements to Europe as the cause and Bole object of the war. We found the Treaty of Lou don' and the principle of the integrity of the Danish monarchy, which all Europe had recog nised as an indispensable element of the European system, rejected by the Allied Powers, although they had formally bound themselves towards the other Powers to respect that treaty and the principle which it laid down. Finally, abandoning all re serve and not content with depriving no of Holstein and Lauenbnrg, they further claimed the duchy of Schleswig, which they pretend to confiscate for the profit of Germany by virtue of the right of the strongest, and were at most willing to leave us a small portion of this ancient province of the Danish Crown. "It has been a painful task to the Government of the King to resign itself to follow, step by step these constantly-increasing demands. For, confi ding in the justice of our cause and in the autho rity of public law, it had committed itself to a most unequal contest, in the hope of finding that support in thecouscils ofEurope which our arms alone were unable to give us. And it has been painful to the Kiag personally, who accepted the Crown upon the faith of the Treaty of London, and has now found himself condemned to disease the partition of the country which believed it had found the certain guarantee of its integrity in him and in his dynasty. "Yet painful as were these sacrifices, they have been supported. If the Powers of Europe really desire to abandon the Treaty of London'—such was the language help by the Plenipotentiaries of the King—' His Majesty, to avoid the recommencement of hostilities, wi.l not oppose a cession of territory, provided he obtains thereby not only peace, but also an independent and perfectly autonomous exis tence for what remains to him of his States.' In this supposition they pointedout the line of Eckern forde to Frederickstadt as the frontier. In accord ance, however, with a proposition adopted by the neutral Cabinet, the Danish Government deter mined upon withdrawing the line to the Schlei— the point proposed by England—so as to unite by this acceptance the imposing unanimity of the four neutral Powers with Denmark. The cession of territory to which we thus consented in the interest of peace was considerable. It mulcted the mon archy of upwards of a fourth of its extent, and deprived Denmark of military and maritime advance tages of the greatest value, to augment in the same degree themeans of action and conquest of Germany. We could not go further in the way of concessions without sacrificing the very existence of Denmark. " But all the efforts made by the neutral Cabinets and all the sacrifices offered by us have remained futile before the obstinacy of the allies. Upon leav ing the Conference we took up our former stand upon the treaty of London, and once more we find ourselves engaged in a war in which we are strug gling for existence, invoking in our favour the action. of Europe and the general principle of publio law. Upon their side the allied Powers proclaim the right of the strongest, and, in despite of the reprobation of the rest of Europe, desire to annihilate a State whose only wrong consists in unwillingness to sub mit to their domination. "This is the lamentable result in which the at tempt at a Conference has issued ; but, while stating it, I have, at the same time, a far more agreeable duty to fulfil. "During the course of the negotiations, each time the Government of the King has made a fresh step upon the way of concession, the neutral Powers and iisespecial the English Cabinet, while calling upon us to take this step, have justly appreciated the greatness of the sacrifice which we made of an incontestable right. " The proposal of an armistice put forward by Lord Russell involved the maintenance of the mari time advantages which we had conquered, in com pensation for those which the allies preserved on land. The English Minister for Foreign Affairs has always recognised the fall justice of our demand that the engagements of 1851-2 should be taken as the basis of the deliberations. Earl Russell did not for get that the Treaty of London was specially due to the initiative of England, and demonstrated with with the fall force of. irrefutable logic that Prussia and Austria had contracted obligations towards their co-signitaries in taking part in that act. When, lastly, the English Cabinet entered into the discussion upon the abandonment of the Treaty of London, Earl Russell declared that it was not within the competence of the Neutral Towers to renounce the solemn treaty by which they had recognised the integrity of the Danish Monarchy, without at least establishing the basis of a solid and lasting peace, and with this view he acknowledged that the new fron tier line ought not to be drawn further northward than the month of the Schlei and the line of the Dannewerke." Further, when the plenipotentiaries of the King pointed out that we could not consent to a prolongation of the suspension of arms without the assurance that the English proposition should form the basis of ulterior deliberations, Earl Rneeen declared that the Government would not itself Wife any proposition, nor would it adhere to an/ Pr°P ° ` to draw . a sition made by another Power tending more northern line of demarcation, Danish assured in advance of the consent of the and in oh that Cabinet especial that of We accepted in • t ment that the Plenipotentiaries of Government. It was upon the faith fo wl of arms, the prolongation of the suspe "It was thus, step by step, tha t . we followed the advice of the neutral Powers , every point the proposition of wtook the inie ment to its uura rying support. tiative, and at the sa me time that we laid it down as our ultimatum , the English Cabinet.hi Earl Russell engaged his Govern . th e ° K w if i tt n hhr . t acceptedbel engage.o g PP" o t* ssible to reconcile this engagem entß ussell in every point with his latest proposition to 'commit the charge of fixing the l i ne of demarcation to an impartial Power, we are no ne the less convinced that the English Minister, in essaying that step, had no intention of placing himself in contradiction with " The resumption of hostilities finds Denmark still without allies upon the field of battle. But the ju;3tice of our c.tuse has already rallied around us the sympathy of the Cabinets and the wishes of the nations. We have a right to hope that these senti ments will not permit the ruin of Denmark to be accomplished; and we cherish the belief that the Governmen de Lhuys, rest in the negotiations will not abandon us in a war so unequal and so unjust. i t ° i f t wE w e I h fir i ni ch ai h t a i v ni e P sh • own so lively an into. " Be good enough, M. le Comte, to read this d an es d p o te l h ea t v e e copy.-1 have the honour, (Signed ) D. MONBAD." hwieithEhxiemelleney M. Dronyn " Manhattan" was no foe to the institutions of his country. For better or for worse he ac cepted them. But while he stuck to the ship, and hoisted the flag of the Union, he had a quarrel with the captain and officers. He discerned the breakers that foamed ahead, and his hope lay in awakening "all hands" to a sense of the common danger. He was without faith in the Federal Government, and had less fear of the Southern forces than of Northern corruption. In his last short letter ho wrote—" I only hope that when General Lee reaches Washington he will issue such a proclamation as will enable us to come back under the original state rights doctrine." It is less a matter for wonder than regret to find a writer like " Manhattan" becoming the object of much mis representation and even personal attack. His open and reiterated denunciations of all that was corrupt in the Seward-Lincoln Administration made him a ready mark for the official sycophants of the press. The New Turk Tribune of the 17th of last month quarrelled with him for, not believing in the victories of General Grant, and poured the most concentrated essence of abuse in thorough Yankee style on his devoted head. Subsequent revelations, however, and more perfect information, have shown that our correspondent was perfectly justified in his scepticism, and that his " monstrous falsehoods were more correot than the official tele grams. It is curious to observe how by common consent a sort of preeminence has been given to Manhattan as an agent of mischief against the Federal cause. In the midst of all the scurrility and maltreatment to which he was subjected Man hattan received the compliment of being placed first and foremost among his class. In the journal to which we have referred the editor writes vindio- tively of Mr. Charles Mackay and "other alien correspondents of foreign journals," whom he accuses of abusing the "national hospitality by the coinage and utterance of monstrous falsehood in the interests of secession and slavery." This would seem strong language, particularly when the aforesaid correspondents are ticketed as " rebel liars in our city." But when the writer comes to Manhattan he utterly boils over with excess of wrath, and the words seem to come hissing hot from the tip of his pen. Contrasting the ordinary run of literary de. Unguents with our unfortunate correspondent in particular, the editor goes on to say—" Not one of them, so far as wehave observed, can at all approach the native —, who serves the Evil One and Jeff. Davis by writing regularly to the Standard over the signature of Manhattan." We beg to be excused repeating the epithet which this amiable journalist has thought fit to apply to a political opponent. We would not echo such a word over the grave of one who, in private life, was among the most generous of men, and to whose kindness and largeness of heart many are ready to own themselves indebted. "Manhattan" wrote under date 17th May, " The disgraceful wholesale lying about the war and victories still continues. Nothing like it has ever been heard before since the world began. Many believe we have really achieved a great victory. There is one man that does not believe it, and that one is Lieut.-General Grant." It is against this and similar statements that the Tribune enters its virulent protest. Thus—" If any one happens to owe Old Nick ten thousand liars, we advise him to turn out ' Manhattan' to his creditor, pay his debt, and get a credit for the ' balance in his favour." This is elegant ; but time has served to show that the eloquence is misap. plied, and that some other name should stand in the place of our too faithful correspondent. There is something significant is the argument of the Tribune. It amounts to this—that it is in. consistent to talk of " sending out of the country" the " alien correspondents of foreign journals," so long as a "native" writer is allowed not only to equal but to transcend them in his daring criti cisms on the doingsof the Federal Government. " Manhattan" was a professed Unionist ; but that made his opposition all the more terrible. Are we to infer that " Manhattan" was to be engaged in order ,hat the " aliens" might afterwards be summarily dealt with P Our correspondent had already been brought face to face with General Dix when this e r d l i c t a o r has des lost st ° a truculent article appeared.

The CHAIRMAN said he was glad to inform them that it would be the last time this Session that they would be called upon to consider Bills in compli ate° with the standing orders of the House of Lords, as their list of Bills would now be completed. There were only two Bills remaining—the Metro. politan Extensions and the Junction Bills. Mr. MAYNARD, the solicitor, read the heads of a bill to authorise the Great Eastern Railway Com. parry to make several railways in and near the metropolis in connexion with their existing rail way, and to purchase lands for a station in the city of London. One of the provisions was that the company should make good deficiencies in parish rates during the construction of the railway and another specified that certain streets were not to be stopped up. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by Mr. L. SimrsoN, a formal resolution approving the Bill was carried unanimously. Mr MAYNARD then read the heads of a Bill to authorise the Great Eastern Railway Company to make several bhort junction railways for connect ing different railways in their system at other points, and for other purposes. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by Mr. SIMPSON, a formal resolution approving the Bill was carried unanimously, and the meeting separated. METROPOLITAN. The adjourned Warneliffe meeting of this com pany was held on Friday at the London Tavern ; Mr. W. A. Wilkinson in the chair. Mr Burchell, the solicitor, read the heads of a bill to enable the Metropolitan Railway Company to extend their railway from Finsbury-circus to Trinity-square, Tower-hill, and for other purposes. The bill authorised the company to create new capi tal for the construction of the extension line, or to make it by means of a separate capital. The line was to pass through the Finsbury-circus gardens in a covered way. Certain streets were not to be stopped up. Trains were to run in the mornings and evenings of working days for the accommoda• tic: of the labouring classes at reduced fares. The CIIAIEMAN said ho did not know of any body of shareholders being in so favourable e, position as they were in respect of the present bill. There were four most responsible parties who had under taken the risk of providing the money for the ex- IMOSOS of the bill and for the Parliamentary deposit. The shareholders of the Metropolitan Company were free to have nothing whatever to do with pro viding the cApite.l for the extension line, bat it they wished they might subscribe any portion of it. They had the option of taking or leaving the extension shares. The whole matter had been fully discussed at the ordinary meeting of the company in February last, and the report of the directors fully and fairly explained the objects of the Bill, and that it was to authorise part of the " inner circle" recommended by the Parliamentary Committee of last Session. The traffic on the Metropolitan line was increasing, and would be farther increased by the construction of the proposed extension lines. He concluded by moving a formal resolution approving the Bill, which he trusted would be carried unanimously. Mr. AUSTEN, a director, seconded the motion, and explained that the Parliamentary Committees looked with great favour on the proposed " inner circle line," of which the Metropolitan Railway and proposed extensions would form a considerable portion. All that was wanted on the present occa sion was their approval of the Bill, which, if sanc tioned, would prevent competing schemes for their present through traffic. Mr. HARTRIDGE said they had better let other parties make the line; there was no estimate of either cost er traffic in respect of the proposed ex tension, and his opinion was that if they were come pelled to make that line it would have the effect of reducing their dividend on the Metropolitan main line by at least one-third. The most expedient thing they could do would be to reject the Bill altos gether, s ad he moved an amendment to the effect that it was inexpedient that the line from Finsbury to Tower-hill should be made with the authority and at the risk of the proprietors of the Metropolis tan Railway. pro xies to the amount of Mr. ELERS said he held £200,000, and he strongly objected to any extension lines being made at their cost, and would second amendment for defeating the Bill. Mr. PARSON, deputy chairman, explained that it was most expedient that the extension line should be made by the authority of the company, and by the assistance of their friends. He thought that the deposit of £96,000 in respect of one extension Bill and £48,000 in respect of the other Bill was a proof of the responsibility of the parties interested. It had been said that they did not know who they i were, but he thought ail doubt would be removed when he mentioned that they were Messrs. Brassey, Pate, Bette, Kelk, Waring, and others. The only penalty in the Bill for the non-completion of the railway was the forfeiture of the deposit, and if the line were not made the loss would fall on those gentlemen. It was a speculation of those parties, and when carried out must improve the property of the Metropolitan Company. The shareholders of the Metropolitan were bound in good faith to pass ' the Bill, which was promoted at the cost and risk of the gentlemen he had mentioned. Parliament had rejected a Bill—the East London Bill—that was opposed to them on the faith of this Bill being carried out. They should remember that a similar breach of faith on the part of the South-Eastern shareholders at a IVharncliffe meeting had caused Parliament to revive and sanction the East Kent Bill for a railway which now fermed part of the London, Chatham, and Dover. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Jones end other proprietors were in favour o f the Bill, while others expressed an opposite opinion. Oa the amendment being put it was negatived by a show tsf hands, and the Bill was approved by 30 against 5. 1 Mr. HARTRIDGE said he was extremely anxious the proprietors; should take the case before the House of Lords. On taking the poll the only vote recorded against the Bill was that of Mr. Hartridge, and in order to save further trouble he withdrew it. The CHAIRMAN declared the Bill unanimously approved, and the proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the obignpan. a ;i to ed est lin, be ) to their faire, gal. d not nter- stone.
