At the Annual Meeting, on - the sth inst., the following . were some of the leading results disclosed in the Report to the S hareholders. FIRE BRANCH. The Premiums of the year 1863 reached the sum of .£341,663 Tieing an advance of Over 1862; an amount of increase exceeding that of any pre 'o•ous year. The Revenu. from Fire Premiums has been en hanced in four years by the large sum of £113,353 The Duty paid to Government in 1862 was. X75,03 Ditto ditto, 1803 88,966 Showing an Increase in one year of . £12,973 .' Among the incidents which have tended to the advance f,lent of the Royal within the last few months may be r eckoned t 8 a.tion with respect to the losses sustained by the explo !,lon of th. Lofty Sleigh, which although on I con •istent with tute general tenor of the conduct of the Company, and ulti- Inately proved to be no more than what had been done in tor- IZer times by the oldest and most proverbially honourable racing its contemporaries, yet attracted attention a nd p ublic avour by its unhesitating prompt less. As the largest total of Revenue and the largest ratio of rc'res sion have been attained in the presen t y ear, so it APPens that the largest Profit which it has ever tallen to the • u irectors to record has likewise on this occasion to be an nounced. The balance of net profir on the year h as amounted to I ' £83,5 t 5 • of which sum £34,16 0 only has been appropriate.!. Dividend and Bonus, and the large balance of £19,441 been carried to Reserve.

On ilia whole, the credit of the company has thus steadily improved, the bulk of the deben ture capital having been made to float at 4 per cent., and a larger amount being now in that position than in 18G1. It should be added that the amount which the company c.as authorised to subscribe to other undertakings at the close of 1863 was £481,500, and the amount actually paid up was ,E 313,625. The Price of Gold. The quotation of gold at Paris is about 21 per runic pm., and the short exchange on London is 25.274 per £1 sterling. Ott comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is nearly 2-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By adviccs from Hamburg the price of gold is 425 per mark and the short exchange on London is 13.51 per .£1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, 2-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is quoted 2761 to 278 per cent., and the pre mium on gold 155/ to 157 per cent. Gold still continues to arrive in moderate quantities. The Midland would not have secured the excellent posi tion which. it now enjoys had not the traffic been cultivated and developed with useidtteue ability. lu 1862 the efforts of the managetneet could not, of course, overt the lose of business occaeioued by the distress in Lancashire ; but in epite of this the traffic of the network slightly expanded, although the working expenses rolled on st ill faster. In 1863 the net revenue of the company ageiu resumed its progres sive course. and the total number of passengers conveyed was 9,916,465 (against 0,0'0,761 in 1862), while the quantity of minerals transported was 4,225,700 tone (against 3,801,153 in 1862), and of general merchandize 3,299,634 tone (against 2,985,071 tans in 1362). The total of 9,916,465 passengers was made up thus :-First class, 707,343 ; secend class, 2,235,614 ; and third class, 7,003,508. There were besides 1,810 holders of periodical tick e t s . Th e Lum b er o f carr i ages conveyed by the quick trains in 1863 was 3,451; of horses, 17,517 ; and of dogs, 27,898. The total distance traversed by the 155,334 quick trains run during the year was 3 ,984,820 miles ; and the total amount acquired by the coaching department was £869,641, made up thus :- First class passengers, £131,338; s,cond class, £210,932; third class, £321,448 ; season and periodical tickets, £9,077 ; exces s luggage, parcels, dogs, &c., £71,808 ; and mails, £35,068. la 1562 the corresponding total was £765,825, of which first data passengers yielded :6125,697- second class, £231,116 -third class, £297,612-season and periodical tickets, i 9 485-excess luggage, parcels, dogs, &c., £66,877-and mails,, £35 03S. The passenger fares charged on the Midland proper in 1363 were 2.373 per mile first class, 1 . 72 d. per mile Second class, and 0.97 d per mile third class ; on the affiliated lines the rates charged were rather higher, but not very materially so. The 155,376 goods trains run in 1863 traversed betweea them 5,820,947 miles (making the total train mileag e for the year 9,805,767 miles), and the amount acquired by th ee , was £1,554,754, which we discompose thus :-Live stock, £32 ; 500-ceal, coke, and minerals, £485,171-and general m e rchandise, £1,037,083. In 1862 the corresponding total rats 44462,831, made up thus-Live stock, £32,557-coal, co k e, and mine rats, £454.444-and general merchandis e , £975,800. ee l the general augmentation of £135,739 established in the tr a ffic receipts in 1863, as compared with 1562, £43,816 w as ob tained by the coaching, and £91,923 by the goods depart. ment, showing how accurately a great railway system reflects the comparative commercial activity of the country, and also how greatly dependent its own prosperity is upon a more or less animated movement of goods. The working charges showed a gradual expansion last year under every head, as, indeed was to be expected, considering the increased business done. Thus the amount expended last year in the maintenance and renewal of way and works wes £106,294 (against £161,645 in 1862)-in locomotive power, £315,935 (against £307,459 in 1862)-repairs and renewals of carriages and waggons,£B2,3ss (against.£7s,46o in 1862) -traffic charges (coaching and merchandise), £277,280 (against£26l.l69 in 1362)--rates and taxes £46,969 (against 40,493 in 1862)-Government duty £20,496 (against £17,818 in 1862)-compensation for personal injury, &c., £17,794 (against £10,520 in 1862) ; compensation for damage and loss of goods, £4,951 (against £9,615 in 1862) ; legal and Parliamentary expenses, £16,93S (against £13,065 in 1362) ; and miscellaneous working charges, £74,186 (against £73,876 in 1862). The only item of expenditure which showed a decrease last year was thus the compensation paid for damage and loss of goods, and the reduction under this head atoned to some extent-so far as it was an indi cation of the care of the management-for the very large sum paid in respect to the personal injuries sustained by passengers. The directors will no doubt use their utmost exertions to reduce this last extremely regretable feature in their accounts. The rolling stock upon the system in December, 1863, comprised 499 locomotives, 907 carriages used for the conveyance of passengers only, 438 other vehicles attached to passenger trains, 10,282 waggons of all kinds used for the conveyance of live stock, minerals, and general merchandise, and 552 other vehicles, making a total of 12,678. The additions made to the rolling stock in 1863 comprised 20 locomotives, 69 carriages used for the conveyance of passengers only, 32 other vehi cles attached to passenger trains, 76 waggons used for the conveyance of live stock, minerals, or general merchandise, and 51 other vehicles. The Midland is thus liberally sup plied with rolling stock, having nearly 191 carriages, trucks, and locomotives per mile worked at the close of 1863, while 'the corresponding average in the case of the Great Western was not quite 14. There can be no doubt that a largo sup ply of trucks is one great means of developing a fine goods treffic, such as the Midland has so successfully cultivated. Such is a general outline of the position of the Midland. We ought also to append a few details as to the position of its allies, and it may be observed accordingly that the North- i ll Western had raised at the close of 1863 £1,182,719, and after 0 providing for fixed charges, £785,560 of ordinary stock re- " ceived 3 per cent.; the Manchester, Buxton, Matlock, and - Midland junction had raised £515,378, and, after pro rat viding for fixed charges, £436,250 of ordinary stock re ceived £2 Bs. 6d. per cent. ; and the Redditclt had raised £46,740, 2/ per cent. being paid on £36,000 of ordinary stock, after providing for fixed charges. Th total capital raised by lines worked in connexion with the Midland at the close of last year was thus £ 1 ,774,837. Adding this amount to the £23,377,447 raised by the Mid land proper, we arrive at a total of £25,152,284; and at the close of 1864 it appears probable that the aggregate capital represented by what is popularly known as the Midland Railway will not be far short of £26,000,000. The position of their property must be highly satisfactory to the Mid land shareholders, and it is interesting and instructive to the railway world at large. When discretion took the place of recklessness at the Midland Board-and the happy transition may be dated from about 1850-the position of the undertaking was deplorable. Its credit was at a low ebb. and its ordinary stock stood at somewhere about 30, while the concern was in general bad odour with the public. How is it that the present directors can now proudly say that they have changed all that ? The answer is plain and obvious. The apparent miracle hag been wrought by a careful development of traffic, an intelligent utilisation of the resources of a naturally fine district, and rigorous economy in the working charges. Under any circumstances the Midland would probably be a fine property, but it owes no inconsiderable portion of its present exceptional prosperity to moderation of the work ing expenses. Thus the difference between a ratio of 43 per cent. and 50 per cent, represented last year, on the rough receipts acquired by the Midland, a round sum of £165,503. The whole amount was applicable, it should be re membered, for division among the holders of the or dinary stock, who received, in consequence, a divi dend at least lb per cent, in excess of that which would otherwise have been paid. This is a practical illustration deserving of the attention of all interested in railways. Another point worthy of notice in connexion with the Midland is what the French would call the soli darzte of the concern. It is probably the most unassailable railway enterprise in Great Britain, as ft extends in almost all directions and embraces almost all interests; and if wisely administered, as it appears to be at present, it bids fair to en joy a long period of prosperity. It may be interesting be fore closing an already long article to recall the fact that it was at one time seriously proposed to transfer the under taking to the London and North Western in consideration of the latter assuming all fixed liabilities and taking the ordinary stock at £62 19 a p er £lOO. Th e negotiation went off, and happy is it f or th e Midl an d shareholders that thsy held on to their property pure and simple. That such terms should ever have been propsed shows how iaade. quate were the estimates formed as to the future of a system which has since worked itself into a foremost place among the railways of the empire.-Times. • THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 31, 1864.

The Ladies' Date of 25 0071, added to a Syreepetalta 1 of 5 Roman Catholicism and Protestantism. On Sunday afternoon Dr. Goss, the Roman Catholic bishop of the diocese of Liverpool, laid the foundation stone of a new Roman Catholic chapel at Easton, a village a few miles from Preston. The chapel will cost about £3,000, and will accommodate upwards of 400 people. Mr Pugin, of London, is the architect of the building. After the ceremony the bishop addressed the concourse of people present, about 2,000. In the course of his speech he said—Do not let any one suppose that this is a vain cere mony which we have been performing. Na doubt there are some who will tell you that they saw the ceremony, saw the procession, saw the priests walking round the building, saw them headed by a cross, and even saw the bishop himself bow down and worship it. Worship it I Why, my brethren, we no more worship that cross than we worship the pillars and the scaffolding which have been raised for the erection of this building—but wo honour it, love it, and bow down ' to it because it contains the sacred image of Him who died for the redemption of man. Who is there who does not love and honour the image of a good friend, a brother,or a sister ? In these days, after photography has multiplied portraits of almost every created thing, there is hardly a man so poor who does not wish to have the image either of his children or his wife—not a woman hardly who does not wish for the portrait of her husband or her children, of her mother, or of some loved ene—and look upon them in their hours of trial, in their times of trouble, and call to mind the lessons which in life they gave them,and derive some comfort, some hope, some pleasure from the contemplation of them. There is many a man who has been cheered and made happy for the time by looking upon the portrait of his mother—of that mother whose body is decaying in the ground, whilst her eyes seem to look upon him as in the happier days of the past. So we feel a reverence and a love for the cross—for that image of Jesus Christ to whom we feel that we owe everything we possess. He has redeemed us, saved us, and broken open the gates of heaven, and given us a title to the regions of the blessed. Therefore vain aro the slanders used against us as to falling down and worshipping images. And there are those who will tell you that this ceremony is a piece of Popish mummery, that it is a foreign superstition, and that we are Italian in our notions and feelings; that we are not genuine Englishmen; that we are perverts to our country ; that our allegiance is divided ; that we do not obey the Queen as our legitimate sovereign; that we place the Pope of Rome above all the powers of this country ; and that our allegiance to our sovereign is spurious, and our loyalty without foundation. If those who bring such charges as these against us had studied the history of this country—if they had examined the events of the past—they would find that for 300 years we have stood faithfully to the throne of the country, even at the expense cf out lives, and that we have risked our fortunes in defence of the Crown. Why was it that we stood by the Stuarts ? Was it because they were Cathnlicly inclined? Yet we have never been so de serted as by the Stuarts. It was through them and whilst standing up in defence of the country that we lost much of our properity, that many of our priests lost their lives, that they were hunted like wild beasts, that they had to fly from their houses and their homes. We were aliens in our own country. 'We were hunted down as traitors and robbers. And why ? Because a change had come over the country ; no longer was the old religion allowed ; and although Eliza beth bore a hard hand upon us—long she had been cruel— we did not suffer as much from her persecution as from that in the time of the Stuarts, How did the Catholics conduct themselves when Cromwell with his iron warriors arose to crush the injuries which were then supposed to exist? The Catholics, up to a man, were found faithful to the side of the Stuarts. And why ? Because it is the very principle of their religion—they cannot, and they dare not be otherwise—they must be loyal, as they must be honest and just, and observe all the other Christian virtues. For we believe that loyalty is a duty that we owe to the Crown, just as much as we hold it necessary that we should observe the virtues of justice, of chastity, of temperance, and of prudence. Therefore, I say, away with accusations brought against Catholics that they are not loyal. We are not Italians, but Englishmen. And let me tell you that our ritual and doctrines are not new—we are not the followers of a new ritual, of new ser vices; our ceremonies and principles are not the product of modern imagination and recent enactments ; but they come down to us from antiquity, and there is no Catholic church in the land whose doctrines and ritual are not of pre-refor mation origin, and whose operations have not been blessed with the same creed as that which used to exist among our ancestors. If your ancestors wore to rise up from the dead and saw any of you bowing to a different creed they would ignore you—if they saw any of you worshipping according to the present Catholic creed they would at once recognise your fellowship and fall down before the same altar and bow to the same saintly names as yourselves. I know it is gene rally said that the grandness, the greatness of England has been dependent upon the change of religion which has taken place in the land. But why has not the same thing made Holland great? There was a time when she threatened even our land—when a Dutch admiral sailed up the Chan nel with a broom at his masthead, intimating thereby that he had swept the English out of the seas. Yet Holland has fallen—fallen from a great country to something less than a second-rate Power, and yet Holland has always remained 'true to her principles of religion. And there was a time when the Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden came down upon the peoples of the western nations, and crashed many in the very midst of his might. Yet where is Sweden now ? Sho has almost passed away from the na ions ; she has stood by and seen that poor little kingdom of Denmark actually devoured and worried by the great Powers of Ger many, and has not dared to lend a helping hand. And yet Sweden has remained always constant, always firm to the principles of the Reformation—to the religion which England has changed for that of her forefathers. If the changed religion if religion at all, as advo cated by many in these times made a nation great, if it has made England great, the countries I have named would surely have been great indeed. Has religion anything to do with it? No, my brethren ; it is not on ac count of religion, but on account of the discoveries of coal, and iron, and cotton, which have made this country great. Is it the religion of the Reformation that has made us great and prosperous? Is it not rather through our discoveries and experiments, and trade in coal, and cotton, and iron, which have made this country known to the utmost bounds of the earth? No, believe me, religion has nothing to do with the depression of one country or the elevation of another. The religion we profess is not, I need hardly say, now, or strange, or foreign, It is the religion which the country professed, which our ancestors loved, from the days when the great Gregory, the Pope, sent forth mis sionaries to convert our Saxon forefathers. There was a time when our poor ancestors roamed over the fields and in the woods, more like savages than men. then the Roman legions came and invaded the country; they reduced our ancestors, or rather raised them, to a point of civilisation. Then the Raman empire gave way, and savage persons from Denmark and Saxony came down upon the country and conquered its inhabitants, and reduced it again to a titato of servitude. Some of the inhabitants were sold as slaves, and carried to Rome, There they attracted the atten tion of the great Gregory. He saw them, inquired from ,ghat nation they cams; ho looked upon their fair faces, and saw their long, flowing, comely locks ; ho was told that they' were Angles; and when he heard this he said, " Xon f i ngt ;s: sal angeliforent, si esscnt Christiant"—They would not be Angles, but angels, had they been Christians," Gregory sent missionaries to England from Rome, and they remained amongst our forefathers until the lust of Henry VIII. burst through the bonds of the law, and be cause the Popo would not allow him to be divorced from his wife, he separated himself from the Church of Rome. But he only separated from her jurisdiction. He believed in the same doctrines, and he sent men to the scaffold because they dared to profess what were called the prin ciplee of tin Beionuatip, But Henry mood ftw 071 and others came, and they took advantage of the youth 0? Edward VI. ; they introduced a new form of worship; and nobles seiz HI the mona-teries, and their descendants remain in possession of them auto this day. Why is it that Lord Russell is so embittered a . pinet Catholics? It is because his ancestors lived on the spoils of the Catholic Church — because he retains their possessions —and, as a man gene rally hates that which he has injured, so Lord Russell hates us because his ancestors grew great on our sacrifices. But do we want what our opponents have—do you want to take back that which they have got? Not a bit of it. 7e care not for the lands and churches they have taken. As long as we have a generous people to depend upon, we rely upon them to build up our churches and altars for the worship of God. We rely not alone upon Catholics, but upon others as wall. Our opponents may have their churches and enjoy their livings. But if it had not been for us they would have had to depend upon voluntary charity. I contend, when we consider the history of their church and ours, tbat we have a right, a title, a claim to some return from their hands. We therefore say unto them " You possess the places we raised to worship God in ; you possess those immense livings and tithes which were anciently given up by the Catholics ; ycu have got them all, you have separated us from them, and we now ask something back from you in return. It is true you no longer persecute us, but we claim something; we ask not for your churches, but we request your aid. And, believe me, the people of this country never did per secute us. If it had not been for the people of this country we could not have existed, and therefore when the law was violated against Catholics they always found protection amongst their neighbours, and many Catholic gentlemen, who now enjoy their broad acres of land in this country are indebted tor them to their Protestant neighbours. In times of trouble they handed their property over to their neighbours ; in times of peace those neighbours returned it. If it had not been for the people we should have been clushed out of the land. I therefore appeal this day with confidence to all—no matter what their creed may bet-,-for help and assistance. We are engaged i a great work. We are trying to raise up a temple to God. We profess a faith not new. It is a faith which was ancie tly professed in this country, professed by a thousand ye .s and more by our ancestors ; and when the great judgment day comes and all your kith and kin rise from thegrave, and when their bones are clothed with flesh and blood, you will find that far more are marked with the sign of the Cross than with the sign marks of the Reformation. For a thousand years your an cestors lived and died in the Catholic faith, and should any of your children become Catholics they will side with them. Should they profess another faith they will be opposed to them. We are not, I contend, the worshippers of a new faith, but of an ancient religion, and when you are standing up for it you are vindicating those out of whose loins you have come. Your forefathers worshipped at the same shrine, and as there is no duty more excellent than that of a man honouring his father and mother, and treasuring up the lessons of wisdom which have come down from them, so can there be no holier exercise than that of engaging in the • same worship as that they professed. Let no one say that we are traitors or foreigners ; if any one does say so believe it not. We have been born on the soil, and have all the feelings of Englishmen. And we are proud of the govern ment under which we now live. We believe it to be the best, the most perfect form of government in the world. It is a constitutional government. On one side, it avoids the absolutism of the Crown ; on the other, it prevents the level ling powers of a democracy and a republic. Think you that the imperialism of Russia is more tyrannical, or that it crushes more people than Abraham Lincoln, who is the representative of a Liberal Government in the Republic across the ocean ? .No ; there is no tyranny more terrible than that which heirs the banner of liberty—that banner which crushes the' liberty of others whilst it raises up itself, which brings itself into fame because it has trodden down almost everything else that may be near it. No ; believe me, the ,Patholics in this country are the same as other men. Wad belong to the nation ; we are English in heart and loyalist purpose ; we wish for its progress and hope for its prosperity; and, in religion, are faithful to the doctrine of our ancestors and the ritual of ages, which has the blessing oaf God upon it, and which no human power can uproot. 1 . The bishop then made an appeal for funds on behalf of , the new church, and shortly afterwards concluded.—Liver pool Daily Pest. • Whe Great English Railways. THE MIDLAND. We hive now disposed of the two giants of the British railway ivorld,and we are approaching undertakings of lesser but stilVrespectable magnitude. The Midland, which comes under notice in succession to the London and North West- Ivrn and Great Western, is a powerful and ,prosperou s a, en terprise, which is intimately bound up and associated with British life and commerce, since we find it at Glocester in the west, Sheffield in the north-east, and Peterborough in the east; while, not content with remaining in the pro vinces the directors have now boldly ventured upon a direct independent lino from Bedford to London. The task of re viewing the progress of the Midland in 1861-62-63 is a com paratively easy one, as the system has become thoroughly consolidated, while simplicity characterises its manage ment and its relations with minor concerns which have associated themselves with their prosperous neighbour. Thus, when we speak of the Midland we have only to mention also as part and parcel of it, in respect to working arrangements, &c., the North-Western--styled in the rail way world with a certain sober facetiousness the "Little North-Western" in contradistinction to the mighty London and North-Western--the Redditch, the Ashley Canal, and the Manchester, Buxton, Matlock, and Midland Junction. The extent of way worked has made some but not very rapid progress during the last three years. Thus the sys tem comprised—December 31, 1851, 633 miles (533 miles double and 50 miles single) ; December 31, 1862, 647 miles (597 miles double and 50 miles single) ; and December 31, 1863, 658 miles (603 miles double and 50 miles single). The system thus expanded in 1852 and 1863 to the extent of 25 miles. The traffic acquired, the working expenses in curred, and the pi ofits realised upon this mileage in 1861, 1862, and 1863 were as follows :- 1861 £2,214,456 £922,386 £1,292,070 1862 2,228,656 971,125 1,257,531 1863 2,364,395 1,017,198 1,347,197 The proportion of the working charges to the receipts was thus in 1861, 42 per cent ; in 1862, 43; and in 1863, 43. Few railways in the United Kingdom appear in a better position than the Midland in respect to working expenses, the ratio on the 11 other great systems of the empire having been as follows in 1863 :—Caledonian, 43 per cent; Great Eastern, 52; Great Northern, 60 ; Great Western, 48 ; Lancashire and Yerkshire, 47 ; London and North- Western, 46 ; London and South-Western, 51; London, Brighton, and South Coast, 13 ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln shire, 60 ; North-Eastern, 48 ; and South Eastern, 48. In no case was the Midland thus surpassed in respect to eco nomy of management, and in only one instance—that of the Caledonian—was it equalled in that highly important matter. The finance of the Midland appears to be administered on equally sound principles. The present directors had rather a heavy legacy of folly bequeathed to them when Mr lludson quitted the concern, but they have since steadily and successfully applied themselves to the task of placing the concern on a satisfactory and substantial foot ing. Thus, of the total of £23,377,447 raised by shares and loans at the close of 1863, no less than £11,230,736, or nearly one-half, was ordinary stock, and it is worthy of remark that at the close of 1861 the corresponding total was only £10,702,502, showing that the directors succeeded in placing ordinary stock of the company during 1862 and 1863 to the extent of £528,234, the total growth of share and loan capital during the same period having been £1,583,373. Considering that 1861, 1862, and 1863 have been years—the remark applying particularly to 1862—0 f same commercial depression (although John Bull has tided over his difficulties much better than might have been expected), the fact that in 1862 and 1863 ordinary stock of the Midland was taken up to the extent of £528,234 speaks volumes for the confidence entertained by the monied public in the stability of the enterprise. After alt, however, it is not perhaps a matter of surprise, since in 1861, 1862, and 1863 the following excellent dividends were paid by the Midland upon its ordinary stock-1861, 61 per cent. on £9,714,019, 5i per cent, on £978,533, and nil on £9,950 (cancelled shares) ; 1862, 6 per cent. on £9,950,045, 41 per cent, on £978,533, and nil on £9,577 (cancelled shares); 1863, 61 per cent, on £10,242,626, 6 per cent. on £978,533 and nil 0n£9,577 (cancelled shares). These results were achieved in the presence of a very large amount of preference stock, £7,216,118 figuring under that category at the close of 1863. The bulk of this preference capital was outstanding at rates ranging from 4 to 6 per cent., the latter rate having been paid upon £1,940,903, 41 per cent. upon £1,853,087, and 4 per cent. upon £2,475,000 ; 8 per cent, was paid upon £140,000, 61 per cent, upon £145,000, and 8 per cent. upon £140,000. As to the rate paid upon X 628,128 of new preference stock, we have no precise infor mation. The directors have also succeeded in converting a large portion of the debenture debt of the company into debenture stock. £924,907 figuring under that head at the close of 1863; the rate of interest paid upon this portion of the capital is fixed at a steady, invariable 4 per cent. The Midland debenture stock is, doubtless, a solid and reliable investment, but it may be doubted whether the issue of de benture stock will not lead to irregularities and confusion on the part of some undertakings. Anyhow, the public does not respond with much alacrity to the constant appeals made to it to exchange debentures for debenture stock; and even the Midland had a larger amount of loans outstanding at the close of 1863 than at the close of 1861. Thus the deben ture debt of the company on Dec. 31, 1863, amounted to £4,005,686, which was floating at the annexed rates of in terest:—£l,ooo at 5 per cent., £220,000 at 41 per cent., £222,108 at 41 per cent., £3,460,293 at 4 per cent., £98,835 R at 31 per cent., £2,050 at 31 per cent,, and soo at 2 per PRICE ...... ...4d.
