The object of this Company is to purchase and extend the well-known and successful business carried on by the Thames Iron Works and Ship-building Company (Limited), at Black walL The Thames Iron Works and Ship-building Company (Limited), was established in the year 1857, and has now attained the foremost position in the construction of vessels of war and ships of the highest class for the commercial marine. The iron for these vessels, and for their armour 'plates, is manufactured on the premises, together with forg- Inge and castings of the largest class for marine engines, bridges, and other similar works. The rolling mills, steam hammers, foundries, smiths' shops, saw mills, dm, are all of the best class and in the highest state of efficiency, forming together an establishment unequalled. Three of the largest iron-clad frigates in the British navy —the Warrior, Valiant, and Minotaur —have been built by the Thames Ship-building Company, and orders have been received for iron-clad vessels for the Danish, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish navies, some of which are now in course of construction. It has been determined to add to the existing business of the Company two other lucrative branches, namely, Graving Docks and Engineering, which are naturally and essentially connected with its present °per:atone. For this purpose, as well as for the large and indressing business of the Com pany, a considerable extenAon of capital will be required as the works advance ; ae:4 in order to carry out the objects in view, it is proposed to transfer to the new Company (subject to payment or fir, dividend for the _past year) the whole of the valuable t'lntraets, assets, goodwill, and effects of the Thames Iron, Works Company, together with its liabilities and enges;ements, as from the Ist of 'Tannery, 1864, in consi deration If the payment to the Thames Iron Works Company of the sum of £275,000, of which the Shareholders in that Company will take £150,000 in fully paid-up Shares, and £125,000 in Debentures of the new Company, bearing interest at 5 per cent. per annum. The property of the Company consists of twenty acres of freehold land on the Essex side of the River Lea, next Black well, and the remises and branch works known as the Phcenix Iron Works, Millwall, together with the valuable plant and works. It is proposed to construct two graving docks capablr of re ceiving ships of the largest class, for which the accommoda- . lion on the River Thames is at present insufficient For this purpose it Is intended to purchase eight acres of treeho'd land immediately adjoining the works, having a frontage both to Bow Creek and the River Thames, which 1 nd is, at pre sent, in the occupation of the Company, with the option of purchase. The proposad new graving docks will be in the immediate Vicinity of the E,at and West India and Victoria Docks ; and It is confidently anticipated that from their admit, , ble situa tion constant and ;remunerative employment for repairs, both of sh',ps and engines, wi 1 be found. The eAtating contracts of the Thames Iron Works Com pany, which will be transferred to the new Comp any, amount to lipwards of a million and a quarter sterling (independently or the work in hand for the forge and rolling mills), and have all been taken on such terms as fairy to justify the anticipa lion of the same profitable results which have already at tended the Company's operations. All the Directors of the old Company will retain their in terest in the ne w Company, and their seats at its Board, and the management iv( 1 remain in the same experienced hands which have hitherto conducted it so successfully, and raised it to its present state of prosperity.

The object of this Company is to purchase and work an ex tenstve gold mining property, called Rossa (Roga) Grande, In the province of ➢linas Ge. aes, lirazil. It is estimated as cotatainintx shout 21 square miles, in the vicinity o the celebrated mine of the St. John tel Rey Company. The purchase money is to be £15,000 in cash, and an equal amount in shares. captain Thomas Treloar, in his elaborate report, says— " The rock is chi , fly clay and talcose te, of that character which is highly congeniat to auriferous formations, and when I add that the lodes are not very far distant from the junction of the slate and granite, every experienced miner - will understand its significance. Gold mines in Brazil, as veil as copper and tin mines in England, are valueless when far from the mysterious effect of the junction of these great rocks. " The estate contains three distinct auriferous formations, Which may be traced for miles, besides a rich jacotinga unexplored. Diamonds are said to have been f ound at one spot. " The first rock formation is of white quartz and iron, and has yielded from half to five ounces of gold per ton ; the second is of yellow quartz and auriferous arsenical pyrites, and has a"orded upwards of six ounces of gold per ton. " The third is of quartz and brown oxide of iron, and about feet wide. In depth it will probably graduate into a pyritic-rock formation similar to that of th s St. John Del Rey Company's ~ ion at Morro Veiho. The whole mass of this lode is auriferous, and portions of ft have yielded 60 oitavas of gold per ton. It only requires capital. economy, and practical experience to make those lodes as remunerative as the Hock Mine of the St. John Del Hey Company, whiAi has already paid £673,720 in dividends, and one share in witich with £l5 paid, is now worth £52." Full reliance is to be placed upon Capt. Treloar's report, - from the fact that he has ha 1 16 years' experience in Brazil. In the service of he St. John Del Key Company, and is chief engineer to the Don Pedro North Del Rey Gold Mining Com pany, which, under his management, has paid a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent on its first nine months' working. Capt. Dailey, who has long known Roses Grande, confirms the above report. The late Mr. George Vincent Duval, Brazilian Mining Commissioner, also, in a work written by him, favourably mentions Rosso, Grande, classing it with Morro Velho (Sr. .John Del Rey), and says—" Those mines might be aptly termed gold quarries." Prospectuses and copies of the reports, with a map, and forms of applications for shares, may be obtained of the broker, of the solicitors, or at the offices of the Company. MR.

The report of :he directors, to be submitted at a meeting of proprietors on the 7th proximo, states that the gross receipts from traffic and all other sources for the half-year have h: en £477,839, as against £439,361 for the corresponding half year of 181;2, or an increase of £38,478, or 8.76 per cent, 'This increase has been obtained in the face of un usually low rates for freight throughout the full and winter, cans( d by depressed prices of produce, and by the navigation of the at. Lawrence and the lakes having been kept open, owing to the mild ness of the early winter season, until the close of the year. Thus the winter rates, fixed at a higher scale when the navigation is closed, could not be put in operation, as heretofore, about the first week in November. The estimates formed of the harvest of 1863 in Canada and the Western States have not been fully realized. From these causes it will be noticed that while the total tonnage of freight car ried during the half-year has been 372,984 tons, as compared with 325,337 tons in 1862, the receipts have only been £282,067, as against £286,273. Thus, the freight of the December half of 1862 yielded an average receipt of 17s. 7d. per ton, while that of 1863 only yielded 15s. Id. per ton. The passenger receipts, on the other hand, show a very gratifying increase—the number of passengers of all classes carried having been 529,723, as against 453,926 in the last half of 1862, or an increase of 75,797, or 16.69 per cent. Tho money earned has been £170,484, as against £127,180, or on increase of £43,304, or 34.05 per cent. Thus, while in 1862 the average receipt per passenger was ss. 7d., that of 1863 has been 6s, sd. This increase has been caused by the conveyance of a larger propor tion of " through" or long distance traffic. The amount carried into the accounts for " postal ser vice" is merely nominal, no settlement having yet been arrived at with the Government of Canada, which is matter of deep regret. This delay has seriously affected the company's finan cial position, preventing it from giving that increased accommodation which the trade of the province stands so much in need of, and has also involved great hardship upon the late creditors of the company, who gave up claims sod securities in order to promote the interests of the undertaking, and in the confident hope of that just and early arrangement so often promised, hitherto without accomplishment. The ordinary working expenses show a total outlay of £275,073, as against £262,307 in 1862, or an increase of L 12,766, or 4.86 per cent., expended in earning an increase of £38,478, or 8.76 per cent. The percentage of ordinary working expenses in 1863 is 57.66 per cent., against 69.68 per cent. in 1862. The following statement shows the progress of the net revenue of the company : In 1859 it amounted to 173,357 ; in 1860, to £102,684 ; in 1861, to £142,492 ; in 1862, to £170,233; and in 1863, to £289,901. From the net profit of the half-year—viz., £165,728, there has to bo deducted the (nominal) amount of £13,104 for postal and military service receipts, and £20,033 for loss on American currency, loavusgH (including the balance carried forward from last half-year of £186), £132,777, which has bean applied, or is now applicable, as f0110w5—%£14,367 to interest on various debentures, including £2,312 instalment of Portland sinking fund, £43,242 rents of Atlantic and St. Lawrence and Detroit lines, £49,921 interest of first preference bonds, and .C 24,715 second preference bonds, leaving a balance of £532. The half-year's interest accruing on the first and second preference bonds to the 31st of December last will be paid on and after the 15th of April, on presentation of the coupons at the com pany's bankers, and the eertigerttem for the arrears to tie eapitnii „d for the first, half-year on the second pre ferenee !Joni-19, end for the whole year on the third and fourth preference stock will hs " f ly issued. The improvement of the permanent and renewal lens progressed way by strengthening rapidly during the half-year. No less than 80 1 5 miles of the line refold with heavier rails fished atthe joints have been renewed, as against Z.l: miles in the corre sponding half 01 . 1862. Thu total length of line re laid in t he year 1863 has been 1 9 5! miles, or nearly one-eighth of the whole length of the Grand Trunk Railway system. Thu length laid in 1862 was 801 miles. The number of new sleepers or ties laid in was in 1862, 302,172, and in 1863, 403,001. The Board now consider that the time has arrived for com iwal dually extinguished out of revenue. sum of £8,622 has been charged to ca, ditional weight of iron and for fish £26,035 has been placed to such renewal account. Arrangements arc in progress for the manufacture, under contract, of steel and steel-headed rails, to be laid down in place of iron rails on the main line. The proved results on the London and North Western line afford most valuable evidence that the new rails laid down on the busiest portions of their line have already lasted 10 times as long as the ordinary iron rails. It is proposed for the future to charge direct to revenue £70,000 a year for renewals, and to carry the excess outlay in the next two years to the re newal account, and so far as the extra cost of " fishing" and of steel are concerned, to capital. The company's practical officers report t hat a regular charge to revenue of £70,000 per annam, t qual to the renewal of 80 miles a year of improved and strengthened road, will, in the course of five years, overtake and extinguish the renewal tic(munt esta blished. The outlay on capital account for addi tions to the plant at d property of the eotranany has been £.17,182, as against £18,142 fur 1862. The former snot i,,cludea c,e coat of 99 new freight cars, two new sleeping cars, and two new engines, being part of the additional plant proposed to be Provided in the last report confirmed by the bond end share holders. The Canadian Government have released the £42,500 second preference bonds pre viously retained, enabling the use of these securities for similar necessary outlay. The issue of postal and military service bonds to the company's credi ors now appears in the capital account, as also the issue of fourth preference stock. The long pending claim of Mr. Turcotte in connection with the Three Rivers Branch has, during the half year, been amicably settled, and the outstanding claims not disposed of in Canada are now of a very trifling amount. An agreement has been sealed be tween the Grand Trunk and Buffalo . and Lake Huron Companies for mutual facilities of working and interchange of traffic, and powers will be sought in the present Session of Parliament to con firm the same. The capital account to 1)ec.31 shows that £16,711,400 had been received, andL16,061,703 expended, leaving a balance of £679,697. The revenue account for the past half year shows that £477,839 had been received and £312,110 expended, including £37,037 for renewals, leaving a balance of £166,728. CALEDONIAN. Tho report of the directors states that after pay ment of the dividends on the preference stock and shares there remained £108,737, out of which they recommended a dividend on the ordinary stock at the rote of 61 per cent. per annum, leaving a sur plus of £l,BBO to be carried to the contingent fund, which would then amount to £23,713; but from this must be deducted £2,369 under agreements with other companies, £3,200 for renewal of bridges, and X 1,025 for Parliamentary expenses, leaving a balance of 117,119. The receipts on revenue ac count amounted for the half year to £452,181, against £421,170 fit the corresponding period of the preceding year, showing an increase of £:31,011 ; the working expenses to £183,631, or 401 per cent., against £168,344, or 40 per cent., showing an in crease of £15,187. The expenditure on capital account during the half year amounted to £196,156. The works on the Cleland and the Stonehonse branches were approaching completion, and those of the Rutherglen and Coatbridge and the Leith branches were in progress. Those branches would develope a largo amount of additional traffic, and the line to Leith would also be the means of saving a considerable sum now paid for cartage. The ex tension to the town of Peebles was opened for general traffic on Feb. 1. An agreement had been concluded for the acquisition of the Hamilton and Strathaven Railway ; the liability of the company was restricted to £36,500, in addition to the share capital of 170,000; and also an agreement for the purchase of the G lasgow general terminus. The total liabilities were restricted to £21 , 1,000. The capital account showed that the total expenditure had been £9,947, leaving a balance of £72,897. GREAT WESTERN AND BRENTFORD. The half-yearly mverng was held on Monday, at tle4 cfficus, (heat George street, Westminster; Mr. P. I),ive; in the chair. Mr. C. ELIA, jun., the secretary, read the report. U stated that the increasing truffle carried over the line during the past half-year, and the additional tollage derived therefrom, permitted a small in crease in the dividend, which would be at the rate of 21 per cent. per annum on the ordinary shares for the past half-year. This encouraging result had been mainly produced by the amalgamation of the three largo lines serving the districts comprised in the Great Western Company system. The arbi tration with the Great Western Company under the leasing act had not yet been settled. Of the deben ture bonds falling due in the past half-year, those hearing interest at 5 per cent. had been all paid off, and the loans obtained had been principally at .11 per cent. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, expressed his regret that, in consequence of the tollage account not having yet been settled with the Great Western Company, they were not in a situation to give the quantities of the tonnage, as they could not admit the returns made to them without the power of verification. The payments therefore which have been received from the Great Western Company had hitherto been taken as on account. Ile had hoped that the arbitration would have been closed by this time. The arguments and evidence on both sides were now closed, and he trusted that the result of the arbitration would be satisfactorily to adjust the tollage accounts up to the present time, and to prevent further difference of opinion as to the mode of keeping tho accounts and carrying out the terms of the leasing act. (Hear, hear.) Mr. li. G. DAY seconded the motion, and com plimented Mr. Eley, the secretary, for the skill and ability with which he had conducted the arbitration without legal assistance on the part of the company• (Hear.) The motion was then put and carried unsai- mouldy. The dividend resolutions were also agreed to, retiring directors and auditors were re-elected, and the proceedings were closed with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. a paper add re ssed c, O f N S l ci l e 'i n s e l e '' s ."-- ,ll l l t . l llech amp states the I t t h E e s A EA c t a tc de ll m E. y s to following facts concerning must and • Wine.

The leading financial establishments is Paris are the Credit Mobilier and the Credit Fonder; both of which have stood the test of experience, and have realised very large profits for tits Jr shareholders—the transactions of the Credit Fonder being based upon the Land Credit system, whilst the Credit embr Aces general Financial business. The wisdom of this division of operations has been fully realised by the Credit 14'oncier for Great Britain and Ireland which, since its establishment, has found the offers of busi ness, both of a Land Credit a s well as of a general Financial character, so large, as to necessitate the formation of the Credit Mobilier (Limited), to undertake such financial opera tions as the Credit Fonder, with due regard to its special ob jects, cannot legitimately carry out. The principal objects of the Credit Mobilier (Limited), are as follows, viz.:— To co-operate with other first-class Financial and Indus trial undertakines. To negotiate Government and Municipal Loans. To aid in carrying out concessions, based upon Govern ment guarantees and subventions. To make advances to responsible contractors for English and foreign railways, and other public works. To lend on the security of stocks, funds, shares, deben tures and other approved securities, with special reference to the requiremeiits of the Stock Exchange. The it M Cre lobilier (Limited will also receive money on deposit for long or short per oda ) .
