Renewed applications hav p ing _ .pade to Government for assistance to enable the directors to complete the line, they -have now the pleasure of stating that a loan of 120,0004 has been granted by the Exchequer Loan Commissioners. at an interest of 5 per cent. This amount, together with the calls already made, and to be made, together with the further loans which the Company are empowered to effect, will, the directors trust, enable them to prosecute to completion the - works with vigour. It appeared by the statement of accounts that the total sum received, under the head of capital account, up to the ;10th June, 1850, was 722,7214 81.10 d.; expenditure, 696 692 L lOs. 10d.; revenue account receipts for ten and a half months to 31st December, 1849, and half-yearending 30th June, 1850, 25,372/. 19s. 2d.; expenditure for same period, 16,0034 lb. 3d.; leaving a balance is favour of the com• pay on the farmer account on tho 30th June, 1850, of 26,028/. 18s,, and a balance on the.same day in favour of the campeny, on the hitter account. of 9.3691 IS,. 11H. After some discussion on the sublee..,f puolidling-ihn names of defaulting spar. holders, the report was adapted, and alto engineer's report was then read. Mr. FRENCH observed that the contr.,et for the Boyns viaduct was fo r fifty o r s i xty thousand pouudq. nod DO one would apply f or i t but a person who was etly competent to carry it out properly. The pet cati were sometimes m a d e out for favourites s and pecifi certain ons parties. He bad been allowed t, go over th e plan, and by the next meeting he would be in a position t, prove what he stated was the fact. Sir JOHN M'NEILL (the engineer) then said that the , meeting had heard the observations of Mr. Freneti 'la re ference to the mode in which the specification s hid been got up,. namely, to suit particular parties. He stated that he had seen those specifications, and he (Sir'John NPNeill) called upon him to mention the specificeton to which he referred. He had made a gross and Istuttstifl able charge.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. FRENCH—I will never shrink from what I state. I asked two months ago to see the specifications, as I wanted to fortify myself with them, and they were then refused to me Sir JOHN 10NEILL—You stated that you saw the specification. Produce it. What is it? Mr. FRENCH—How can I produce it now? Sir J. MINEILL—You have stated a wilful untruth. Mr. FRENCH—Any accusation I make I will maintain. I have been.granted liberty to inspect the specification, and perhaps I will be able to do what I say at our next meeting. • Sir J. M•NEux—That will not be for six months. You say you know the specification, and I call upon you to name it, Mr. FRENCH—There is no use in talking about it. I have one in my possession. Sir J. W.NEn.r.—What is it? There must be a copy of it in the office. Mr. FRENCH —Let the matter drop. Sir J. MekiEux—l will not let it drop; and you should be ashemed of yourtelt, sir.—(fle,ar.) Mr. FRENCH—lndeed I am not. Sir J. M`NEILL—Namc the specification, or I will say you have stated what is a wilful untruth. Mr. WRIGHT condemned Mr. Ftench for making such an unfounded charge. Mr. FRENCH retorted by saying that Mr. Wright was in arrear, and was not entitled to be heard at aIL The SECRETARY stat• d that Mr. Wright had paid up his calls upon Monday last. The CHAIRMAN —I think that it is very unjustifiable to bring forward a charge which implicates not only Sir John M.N, ill, but— Mr. FRENCH --I did tot mention the names of any parties. The CHAIRMAN —There could not be any mistake. Every one must know that if anything were done that was incorrect it was done by the engineer by whom the specification had been drawn up; therefore it could not be denied that their..engineetein-chief bad been itiipli cated in the charge.—(Elear, hear.) Sir John M'lsleill was quite right in saying what he has said; and upon the part of the meeting I must say that it was a very un justifiable attack upon him, and had been made by, Mr. French without being in a position to prove what he asserted .—(Hear.) I will afford every opportunity to bring forward against any person connected with the undertaking any charge that can be substantiated, but in justice to all parties permit tue to say that it is very un fair to bring turward so serious a charge without proof. Mr. FRENCH—J believe that when I brought forward charges heretofore they wero to a great extent Wig. The CHAIRMAN—To a great lextente-they-were .true, but your present charge is quite unjustifiable. Mr. FRENCH—I will maintain what I assert, and prove that I am right. Sir J. M'NF...ux—lt is absolutely necessary that•some thing should be done as regards this charge. .Mr. GARTLAN—I rise to order. Mr. French • has made an assertion to which Sir J. M'Neill has given as positive and flat a denial as any man could love to an other. He has called upon Mr. French to bring..for ward his proof, and he has not any to pr o d uce; an d I eats, in the h ear i ng o f the chairman that that charge should bo withdrawn.—(Hear, hear.) It Mr. French has the feelings of a gentleman and a Christian he will withdraw it.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. WRICHT—But he has not those feelings. Mr. FRENCH—I came here, Mr. Garth:Li, to protect my property, and have never beau paid fur waking a speech. Mr. GARTLAN—It is false that I have been so. The CHAIRDIAN-1 have alre a dy Ltat.,l th a t M r . French was not jUstifivd in bringing forward so grave a charge without any proco to sustain it, and I hope the matter will now drop.—(Hear, hear.) A resolution recotnin,nding that los. per share to given to each proprieter, iu the manner specified in the r, port, wits ths-n adopted. Mr. Wnecur stated that he was one of the original subscribers ; he held fifty shares. lie paid up all be owed with the exception of the last call. He tied been out i f town, anti when he returned to it he paid the money. He would hart have attended the meeting , if he had nut paid every thing that was due by him. Mr. Barlow then left the chair, and Mr. Wilson being called thereto, the meeting was dissolved. D RECT LONDON AND PORTSMOUTET. The ninth ordinary meeting of the proprietors of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern, fur the purpose of hearing a report from the directors as to their proceedings in endeavouring to break up the com pany; but lung after the hour appointed there was an insufficient attendance oF proprietors to constitute a legal meeting, and the chairman (William Arthur Wilkinson, Esq.) said that he would merely explain how they were situated. It had been found impossible to carry on the hue, and accordingly a Bill was promoted in Parliament with the view of dissolving the company. The winding up Act, however, being under the consideration of the L. gislature, the Bill was not pressed. It was now found that this Act was detective, and to make it available for an incorporated company, such as theirs unfoitunately would entail great expense and cause much delay, and the directors vvere earnestly considering how they could avoid both, and wind up the company by private cons( nt. The chairman then read several clauses in the Ac', to show what numerous forms had to be gone through, and stated that other companies were in the same predicament as them selves, and it was to be hop d the Act would be amended next 8, Esiun to render it more useful. The report stated that " the attention of your directors during the past six months has been wholly given to the means of speedily dissolving this company. The proprietors are aware that it was with this view alone your directors applied to Psrliament in the last session for powers to abandon the under:skit% and dissolve the company,' and that the progress of this 13;11 was stayed on the introduction into the Howe of Lords of a general measure of relief, in tituled An Act to facilit,te the Abandonment of ways and the Dissolution of Railway Companies in cer tain cases.' This measure received the royal assent on the inst., at a period too late to enable your di rectors to lay it before you for your decision thereon at the present meeting; but it is their intention to convent) a special meeting for that purpose as soon as it can be conveniently done." la conclusion, the Chairman said he hoped they would be enabled to save something from the wreck.—Thanks were then voted to the board, and the meeting adjourned.

After struggling for three years with the diffichlties into which this company has been plunged by previous mismanagement, the present directors have succeeded in free-ing it from all its embarrassments. The Public Wolks Loan Commissioners are about to grant a loan, and Mr. Win. Dargan undertakes to supply the remain der of the money required to extend the line to Fid down (within eight miles of Waterford), to which point the river Suir is navigable for large vessels. The direc tors estimate that the entire cost of completing the line to Watt.' ford will not exceed 400,000/., and that the total sum expended from Limerick to Waterfird will be un der 950.0001. Shares have been tor &Red which give a bonus of 40,0001. to the present proprietors, which will reduce the cost to 910,0001. When completed, the capi tal account will stand as nearly as possible-10,000 share—stock. 500,0001.—10 an, 410,0001.—total, 910,0001. —Evening Mail. THE LATE DRIVERS ON THE. .

The early—and in many instances violent—deaths of the Scottish Kings caused almost every reign to commence with a long minority, during which the struggle for power lay between the affection or ambition of a mother, a stranger in the land, striving for the guardianship of her son with the political power which It involved, and a turbulent nobility, always in search of their own aggrandi3ement, and contemptuous alike of roreign and female domination.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. VALE OF• NEATU. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Cirditf yesterdsy—Alr. Meyrick pres:ding. The report of the directors set forth the satisfactory progress which had been made in the works since the last-meeting. The contract for the construction of the viaduct over the river and caws! at Need), connecting this hue with the South Wales Railwny, had been let upon advantap.;eoui terms, and within the original esti mates. The whole of the works beneath Neath and Aberdare were now let, and in an active state of pro gress, with every prospect of bAing open for traffic in the ensuing spring. During the half-year large arrears of calls (amounting to 36,5811) had been got in, and amongst other arrears were mttny that had been consi dered almost hopeless. - The CHAIRMAN, in addressing the meeting, spoke in highly sanguine terms. of the prospect of receiving an early legitimate dividend. The isum mentioned as re quired to complete the line between Neath and Aberdare would leave a large margin for the purchase of rolling stock; -in- 'ennelusiori,-the Cheri= said - tfrafire - eauttf bitt think, that looking to the resources which the Vale of Veath Railway possessed for traffic, it would prove one of the best paying lines in the kingdom. The report was adopted nem, con., certain shares were ordered to be forfeited and sold, and the usual resolu tions were passed. NORTHERN COUNTIES UNION. The half-yearly meeting of this company took place yesterday at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street; Maier W. Beresford in the chair. The report stated that since the last half-yearly meet ing the directors had continued their efforts to collect the arrears of calls due to the conipany. The result of the trial of an action brought by the company against an influential shareholder for the arrears due upon his shares had set at rest any doubt of the power of the company to recover legally all arrears of the call. The directors had consi q'u•ntly given instructions for pro ceedings to be immediately taken against all defaulters, except in cases where there here strong grounds for be lieving that such steps would be entirely useles. It would be observed that during the last session of Par. !lament a general Act had been passed for facilitating the abandonment of certain railways and dissolving the cora • panics. The directors had reason to congratulate their shareholders upon the course hitherto adopted at the ordi nary general meetings,of not prematurely, at great expense and with a doubtful prospect of success, attempting to obtain a special Act for this company. The provisions of the Act were generally applicable to their company, but the directors were of opinion that some of its c'auses were of such a character as to demand their especial and deliberate consideration, and that any hasty adoption of its powers would be highly inexpedient; and they there• fere intended to submit a resolution on the subject, which would enable the directors to take with proper caution the necessary steps when safe and desirable. The balance -sheet showed that the receipts had amounted to 221,5811., and the expenditure to 192,2371., leaving a balance of 29,3441. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the port, said the directors had conducted the affairs of this company with a view to the strictest economy. The balance-sheet for the last half -3 ear 'was less than on any previous hal&year. They were in• this position at the present moment—they had commenced a certain portion of works, and spent a certain portion of money upon them, and they thought that further expenditure on the works would not he prudent.—(Hear.) It bad been suggested that they should get an Act sptcially to au thorise the company to dissolve and distribute the funds in band; but the wisdom and propriety of that course appeared questionable while they expetfed a general measure to pass which would enable them to t ffect that object. He then went into the machinery to be made use of under the Act to carry out the abandonment and dissolution of railways, and proceeded to show that it would be inexpedient to apply it to the position of the Northern Counties Railway, inasmuch as there were many outstanding transactions in connexion with this company. Then there was another Consideration, that of enteeieg into ogreemeratts,:witiitither companies for Jbe purchase of th. it line; and, looking at all these circum stances, the directors thi , ught that they could not on this side Christznas proceed under the proposed Act. He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Some Oiseustion arose as to Lilo salary of the secre tary, and Mr. Smith moved that it bn reduced from 5001. to soul. per annum; but subicquently withdrew his resolution. The motion for the adoption of the report was then carried unanimously, ai also a resolution confirming the forfeiture of 265 shares, and th it the directors he rrquested•to ascertain what terms can be made for sale of the portion f the line already constructed, and, soon as they may deem it advikable, to call a meeting under the Act, to sanction the absadonmerit of all the remaining parts of the railway which the company was now authorised to conmtruct. After a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors, ,he meeting separated. AM[3ERGATE, rrimillAm, AND BOSTON. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Nottingham yesterday; Mr. W. Fletcher Norton Norton, of Elton Mauer, presulitig. Atter the SECRETARY heed read the report, The CHAIRMAN brit-fly proposed its adoption, Mr. KING asked the precise me.sning of the word "en gagements" in the following paragraph:- I .h reference to the balance-sheet, your directors beg to state that they do not intend to make any further call until after February next, prior to which every exertion will be made to recover the amounts now in arrear, as also to asceitain the precise sum that may be required to fulfil the engagements of the company." He begged to move, in order to put the matter beyond question, the addition of the follo,+ing clause:—" Both as regards the completion of the railway and the canal putcbases, and that they A lgo he prepared to suggest to the proprietors the means of meeting such engagements." Ile thought it was quite time the subject should be taken into considerat;on. Mr. WILSON, of Grantham, said that he had never heard that they were bound to take more than one of the canals, and objected to the amendment being in the plural form. Mr. HUGH OXENHAU, of London, moved as an amend ment that they should not pay for the canals unless they were compelled. Mr. BIRLEY wished to be informed how many of the directors were canal proprietors. The CIIAIRMAN replied that some of the directors were also canal stuireholders. Mr. KING wished a modifying clause to be inserted in his resolution, but he ultimately withdrew it altogether. In answer to Mr. MARTIN, it was stated that the pas senger traffic alone was equal to the expenses of the railway. The total receipts were, on an average, about 240/. per week. The report was then adopted. The folLeving out-going directors were then unani mously re-elected: —Mr. Robinson, Mr. Wilkinson, Mr. Durham, and Mr. Thornton. Mr. John Swann was also re-elected an auditor. No fewer than 10,582 shares, on which a sum of 330392/. 12s. 6 , 1. had been paid, were then forf , ited. The t , tal sum paid on shares forfeited by the company now amounts to 38,5331. 2s. 6d. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman, and the meeting broke up. LLYN VI VALLEY. The half-yearly meeting of thin company tool; place yesterday at the offices, 449, West Strand; Mr. W. Matthews in the chair The SECRETARY read the report, which stated that no material change had taken place in the company's affairs during the last six months. The South Wales line had been recently opened from Chepstow to Swansea. but as no arrangements had been made to accommodate the mineral traffic, and the connexion of this line was not completed, no estimate could be formed of the effect which it was likely to have on their traffic. The antici pations of an increase on the revenue had been realised to a small extent, and though the traffic had not equalled what the importance of the district had led them to expect, as a gradual revival of the mineral interests appeared to be taking place, the railway seemed likely to progress, so as to give them the increased revenue which they anticipated. The prours of the half year available for dividend amounted to 1,5611., out of which the directors recommended the payment of a dividend at tho rate of 4 per cent, per annum on the paid-up capital, amounti ng to 1.509 1 ., leaving a balance of 52/. to be carried to the next account. The cl4ints of the hollers of the new paid-up stock, under the provi sions of the Amalgamation Ac . , to be reserved as before. Th CHAIRMAN, in movin , • the adoption of the repor,, said that he considered the increase of traffic most satis factory, though they had nut yet realised all that they h ied v ad expectr eed. During the last h a lf- year they hzd cat - 39,634 rtheir line 239,634 tons of goods, against 200,977 tons in the corresponding half of last year, being an increase of about 39,000 tons. The money receipts in the same period have increased from 6,02/. to 7 9391. After a short discussion the report was adopted, and the dividend, at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum, de clared. A spacial meeting was then held, at which a com mittee was appointed to tike into consideration the affairs and prospects of the c , ropany. The meeting then separated. the company, at 50, Old Broad -street. Mr. Aglionby, M.P., was in the chair. The SECRETARY read the report as folloivs: " Mr. Stephenson, the managing director, and Mr. George Turnbull, the resident engineer-in- :nief, en - barked for lowa on the 20th of March last, a-riviug t Calcutta the latter end of April. •• The•directors have received a very interesting report from Mr. Turnbull as to the line of railway which, in nis opinion, should be first constructed; and the directors have the gratification to state that the report entirely c mfirnis the views already taken by the board on this question. " The board understand that the Government engi neer has also made a report to the Government of India on the same Fuhj,ct, and that the views of this officer and of Mr. Turnbull, upon all essential matters, are in per fect harmony. " The board further understand that the report of the Government engineer has been forwarded by the Legis lative Council of Lelia to his Excellency the Governor- Cieneral for sanction. In the meantime Mr. Stephenson has received, through his Excellency's Secretary, his Lordship's assurance that his best and constant attention will be given to the undertaking, and that be entertains an anxious desire to facilitate, by every means at his command, the operations ot, the East India Railway Company, and to secure the successful conduct of an en terprise in which both the Government and the share holeers have 5o great an interest.' "Yeadittg his Lordship's decision, the board consider that it would be premature to print Mr. Turubuli's re port, but it is opea for the inspection of any shareholder who may with to see it. • " The statements which have appeared in some portion of the Indian press, and thence copied into the home journals, announcing the abandonment of the under taking, are totally untrue. " • The directors think it right to correct a misappre eertsidwinsittleitir been industriously ci rcu l ate d , to the ffect 'that the capital of the company is limited to 1,000,000/. sterling; and that, in consequence of such limitation, and of certain• proposed details of construc tion, the experimental line to be laid down by this com pany must terminate at such a point as to prevent its being remunerative.' The line first to be made is to be a fair experiment, and is to be carried to snail a desirable point as, in the opinion of the Government of India, will render it sure cf being so. If the million of capital be insufficient fur this object, new capital is to be raised under the guarantee of the East India Company, on pre cisely similar terms as the original capital. " In a return presented to the House of Commons, in July last, on the subject of Railway Communication in India,' is a copy et a dispatch addressed by the Court of Directors of the Supreme Government of India, on the subject of the contracts between the East India Company and the railway . companies, and contains, in explanation of this particular point, the following extract:— " • Clause 17 provides for the excess of capital which may be required above the respective sums of 500,000/. and 1,000,0001., in order to complete the exact length ot line which may be determined upon. In the first place, our guarantee extends only to those sums, but as it is impos.ible exactly to define the cost of the under taking beforehand, and more especially as in neither case is the exact route fixed, and in the case of the East Indian Railway the point of its termination is not even fixed, it was necessary that some provision should be made for any margin either of excess or deficiency ot ca pital necessary to complete these experiments. In thecase of the Great Indian Peninsular Company, the two points of Bombay and Callyan are determined, but in the case of the East Iniian Railway, the starting pint (Cal cutta) only is fixed. You will not only have to deter mine the exact route of this line, but also the point to which it would be most expedient, with a view to a fair trial of the experiment, it should be carried, always hav ing reference to the sum which is contemplated to he expended. And you will have to determine, in. the event of the sum mentioned in the contract (1,000,0001.7 appearing sufficient only to bring the line to some inter mediate point, at which it would be Undesirable to stop, whether you will make your terminus at a nearer or more distant point, and to that extent increase or de crease the capital as the case may be, and the surplus or deficiency will be dealt with as provided for in, the 17th 'and 27th clauses of the contract. In the one case, the capital will be increased on the same terms as the original capital; in the other case, the excess will be returned to the shareholders.' " Upon a requisition from Mr. Turnbull, tho board, with the sanction of the East India Company, have sent out by the steamer of the 20th of the present month three additional engineers, and have authorised the ap poitament of a fourth on the spot. The services of these gentlemen will, therefore, be available at the commence went of the eusuing cold season in India. " The board adopt ibis medium of acknowledging and communicating to the thareh Iders the liberality of the ninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company in seducing the passage money of the engineers and ewers wf.o have •pruceedtd to ludia in the service of the company. " The accounts are made up annually, and, conse quently, are not Nubmitted at the half-yearly meeting; but it will be satisfactory to the proprietsry to know that the interest guaranteed by the East India Company is now accruing upon the sum of 354,5671. 55., being the amount paid into the treasury in I,,nclon up to the 30th June last, and upon 2,4241 is. 8d , the amount paid into the Governmeut treasury at Madras. "Pending negotiations for carrying out the details of the contract in India, tho company's funds in Calcutta were invested in Government loans. The last mail brings intelligence of arrangements having been con cluded with the Government for the transfer of these funds to the treasury, in accordance With the terms of the contract." The CHAIRMAN said the report so fully explained the position of the company's affaire, that he had only to congratulate the proprietors on the prosperous progress of the undertaking, and the point to which it had now arrived. He wished, however, to correct a misrepresen tation which had been vcry extensively circulated by the Indian press, and caught up and propagated by a portion of the press of this country, to the effect that the capital of the company was limited. This notion was quite erroneous; it was true that the sum of 1,000,0001. had been fixed in the case of the Madras Company, and 500,000/. in that of the Bombay Company; but this was merely for the preliminary operations anu the portion of the line to be formed in the first instance, &c. The di rectors were quite prepared to raise 3,000 Odd, it ne cessary, end he had no doubt the money would be very easily obtained. He submitted that the report shoal be adopted. After a few words from Captain BARBER and Captain ANDERSON, the report was adopted accordingly. Mr. MCCATTA expressed the entire confidence felt by himself and the shareholders generally in the present direction; and moved a vote of thanks to the directors for the fidelity, zeal, and success with which they had promoted. the interests of the company, which was agreed to. FLEETWOOD, PRESTON, AND WEST RIDING JUNCTION. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at Preston; Mr. T. B. Addison in the chair. The CHAIRMAN read the report. which stated, that the junction of the company's line with that of the Preston and Wyre Company has b; en completed, and is attended with a considerable and progressive increase of traffic. Agreements have been male with neightiouring com panies as to the rate of toll, and other arrangements are in progrPas for extending the market fur Longridge stone, an article of traffic which alone may be expect d, before long, to clear the annual payment to the Preston and Longridge Company. The present liabilities on capital account may be taken to amount, in the whole, to 17,156/ ; and to meet them there is owing to the com pany for arrears of calls, which may be considered good, 13 2894; surplus laud unsold or not paid for, 1,6501.; and stock in hand valued at 3,3351. The directors trust that the shareholders will place it in their power to dis charge these liabilities forthwith by paying the calls al ready mule, which, unless some unlooked-for default should be made, will, it is expected, be sufficient to pla ce the Longridge, re s t on f r a t : m ai the company free from debt. The directors h ave come to a resolution to relay om Gthreiffiliianregh f ~ f Longridge Railway ir the company's stock in hand. The old rails and sleepers have now been in use above ten years, and were not adapted for a traffic worked by locomotive engines. The report was adopted. The CHAIRMAN stated that he hoped, on an early oc casion, to meet them to declare a dividend. A vote of thanks was passed to the Chairman, and the meeting terminated. DUBLIN AND BELPAST JUNCTION. The half yearly meeting of this company was held at their offices in Dublin, on Wednesday; Mr. Barlow, the vice-chairman, pre,iding. The report of the directors contained the following passages:— " In submitting to the proprietors the accounts for the half-year entling the 3Cth June, the directors hare the satisfaction of being able to announce that there are now thirty-two miles of railway finished—that portion of the line from Dundalk to Wellington Inn, tea and a half miles, harir.g been opened for the conveyance of passen prs and merchandise on the 31st of July, and that since that p-riod the improvement in the traffic has exeeeied their expectation.. In order to increase it as much as present circumstances will a!low of, a contract has been entered into with a respectable coach pr , sprietor, by which travellers going to and from Bslfsst are expedi tiously conveyed beyond Wellington Inn station, rear Newry, and Portadoim (being the northern terminus of your railway), by omnibwes, at a moderate charge, . .
