A numerous special general meeting of the share holders of this company assembled at Radley's Hotel, at 12 o'clock yesterday, "to consider the final report of the directors, relative to an amalgamation with the North Metropolitan Railway Company." Mr. A. S. AYRTON (chairman) opened the business by calling upon the secretary to read the report. Mr. SIDNEY SMITH read the report, which was as follows : " Report of the Directors to the Special General Meet ing of Shareholders of the City Railway Terminus Company, convened at Radley's Hotel, Bridge-street, Blackfriars, the 21st November, 1853 " The shareholders of the City Terminus Company hav ing at their last general meeting approved of the suggestion then made by the directors, that the shareholders should continue associated together for the purpose of carrying into execution their general project for securing efficient railway communication between the railways north of the Thames and the western side of the city of London, the directors immediately afterwards took steps to ascertain the views of the Board of Trade respecting the company's undertaking, when they were informed that the company , was at liberty to proceed with it, on condition of the rail way not being used for the conveyance of goods or cattle without the previous consent of the Board of Trade, and then only in such manner and subject to such restrictions as the Board might direct. " The directors deemed it unnecessary to discuss the propriety of such a restriction being imposed upon their undertaking, preferring to assume that the Board of Trade, in exercising the unusual power intended to be conferred on it, would be guided by considerations of public con venience alone; and as the directors were satisfied that however large the goods traffic of the railway might be de veloped, the accommodation proposed to be afforded for it was such that it would have been productive of far less inconvenience than the railway traffic of the metropolis under existing arrangements, they did not anticipate that any obstruction to the traffic of the railway would be ex perienced from the intervention of the Board of Trade. " At the earliest practicable period, therefore, the direc tors entered into negotiations with the Great Western and Great Northern Railway Companies, which were unavoid ably retarded by the absence, during the vacation, of the principal persons concerned in them ; but at length the basis of a very satisfactory arrangement with the former company had been adopted, when the sudden depression of the money market rendered it necessary to reconsider the subject. The undertaking, though it had been so modified as to leave no doubt of this company being able to carry it into execution with the support of the other companies, required an amount of capital which it would have been inexpedient to attempt to raise during a period of mone tary embarrassment. The directors, in consequence, had had no alternative but to suspend all further proceedings until a more opportune period might arrive. " At this conjuncture the North Metropolitan Railway Company, which was incorporated last session to construct a line of railway from the Edgeware-road to King's-cross in connection with this company's line, proposed to the directors to adopt the line of this company as an extension of the North Metropolitan Railway. The directors, deem ing this the most advisable course which could be adopted to secure the objects for which the company was estab lished, have settled the terms of 'an arrangement to unite the City Terminus Company with the North Metropolitan Company, which they now submit for the consideration of the shareholders, as follows " ' That every scripholder in the City Terminus Com pany shall have the option of subscribing for a share of 101. in the extension capital for every share held by him in the City Terminus Company. Five shillings per share, his proportion of past expenses, to be credited to him in part payment of his deposit of twenty shillings on the new share. " That in the event of the bill not being successful, any subscriber to the extension capital shall be entitled to re ceive back fifteen shillings per share, upon his delivering up his scrip, and relinquishing to the North-Metropolitan Railway Company all interest in the scheme of that com pany, or of the City Terminus Company.' " The affairs of the City Terminus Company having been thus brought to a conclusion, the amounts of the past expenditure are submitted to the shareholders, showing a balance of 741. 4s. Bd. remaining in hand, which will be required to meet a few trifling payments to be made ; and the shareholders will no doubt be gratified to observe that by the proposed arrangement they are not only secured the full benefit of the amount already expended by them, but are also enabled to persevere in their undertaking without incurring any further liability in case it should again fail. The general recognition of the merits of this company's undertaking, which enables the North Me tropolitan Railway Company to pursue it with confidence, has not been obtained without a much larger outlay than that borne by the shareholders, to hold them exempt from all claims beyond the sum of ss. per share, it has been pro vided that the additional outlay shall be liquidated by the North Metropolitan Railway Company, in the event only of the project being successful, and without the share holders personally incurring any liability in that respect. "Under the proposed arrangement, it is intended to ap ply to Parliament in the next session for powers to con struct a double line of railway from King's-cross, by Victoria-street and Smithfield, to the Post-office, in continuation of the line already sanctioned by Parlia ment from King's-cross to the Edgware-road, which it is also proposed to extend to the Great Western Railway station, at Paddington, thus forming one continu ous line from the large and increasing district of Bayswater inhabited by so many who frequent the city daily, to the very centre of London. Commencing with the Great Western Railway, the line will be capable of an easy junction at Euston-square with the London and North- Western Railway, and at King's-cross it will adjoin the Great Northern Railway ; and will also be capable of being united by a short junction with the North London Rail way, and by means of it also with the London and North- Western, and the Eastern Counties Railways; thus form ing a complete and comprehensive system of inter-railway communication on the north side of London, and bringing the whole into connection with the centre of London, at the Post-office. " Ample remuneration for the cost of the line will, it is thought, be derived from the metropolitan passenger traffic alone ; but the line will be so laid out in regard to the large area of land now lying vacant in Clerkenwell, and other available sites for railway purposes, that it may be employed for goods traffic to any extent which the trade and commerce of the city of London may require, when ever arrangements may be made with the Corporation, under the sanction of the Board of Trade, for affording stations, and other accommodation for that purpose. " Should the corporation think fit to appr'opriate Smith field for the purpose of a new meat market, the line will be of the greatest advantage to that important branch of trade, by affording railway communication between the cattle market in course of construction and Smithfield. " The directors regret that the grandobject of combining a large and comprehensive plan of street improvement with railway communication, which the company proposed, cannot be immediately carried into execution ; but, since the formation of this company, Parliament has deemed it expedient to provide that no new railway enterprise shall be attempted, except under a heavy penalty for its fulfil ment ; and it would, in consequence, have been necessary to make such preliminary arrangements as would have in sured a profit to the shareholders on the largo capital which would have been sunk in land, before the company could have been committed to the purchase of the requisite property, by accepting its Act of Incorporation. But the interests involved were so numerous, complicated, and im portant, that it became exceedingly difficult for an inci pient company, without the power of entering into or executing binding contracts, to make the combinations and arrangements necessary to guarantee success. "BY the proposed amalgamation, however, the under taking will be carried on by a company already incorpo rated, which, the directors are satisfied, will be prepared to enter into equitable arrangements with the governing body of the Corporation of Loudon, and with a due regard to the interests of the shareholders, will, if required by the city of London, carry out any design of improvement for which they may receive a just equivalent out of the un appropriated lands in the possession of that body ; and the directors therefore recommend to the shareholders to ac cept the proposal of the North Metropolitan Railway Com pany, which they believe will, at no distant period, secure for the shareholders a line of railway equally profitable to the shareholders, and useful to the public." The CHAIRMAN proceeded to address the meeting, and congratulated the shareholders upon the result to which they had arrived. The line of railway of the proposed amalgamated companies embraced the most valuable traffic area in the world. When they considered that the Dublin and Kingstown urban line returned a dividend of 12 per cent., and looked at the traffic of the Blackwall, the East and West India Dock Junction, the North and South- Western Junction, and had regard also to the immense omnibus traffic going along the very line of the proposed railway, it was impossible to doubt that a route com mencing at the Paddington station, guing through Smithfield, and terminating at the Post-office, con structed also at a cost of little more than 200,0001. per mile, was a secure, and must be a prosperous undertak ing. It was important to remember that, by the pro posed amalgamation, the shareholders obtained all the benefit of the act of Parliament secured by the North Metropolitan Company, were thereby enabled to act with all the powers of a corporation, and were entirely exempted from the inconveniences and expense which would have occurred from their going to Parliament for an act of their own. The late standing orders, were they now to go for an independent act, would lock up the whole of their deposits, whereas, by joining . the . North Metropolitan, it is competent to them to with draw their deposit at any time. He concluded by mov ing the adoption of the report. IF+ Mr. CHARLES PEARSON presented himself to th e meet ing, with the consciousness of the humiliation of the failure of his attempts to carry through the greatseheme of public improvement, which had first induced tifilLtioe make his appeal to the public for the formation company. Nevertheless, in a mere pecuniar y point of view he had to congratulate his brother upon the favourable settlement of their shareholders taking, which the directors had accomplished. i them some confidence in the undertaking, ne to atn b d e mightinformed unfle d g ge v d e that the North Metropolitan was ne plan, but one which he hime 3 lf had long since submitted 1 1 t o the Corporation of London. As he considered himself II bound as a lawyer, to see that no residuum of liabilities should be left upon himself or liis brother shsroliolders, he had thought it desirable to suggest the following ad dition to the motion of the Chairman, which he n ow begged to move : Th a t this meeting are o f op i nion —" that under the circumstances stated in the report of the directors, as explained by the Chairman, it is inexpedient for this company to incur the expense of another applica. tion to Parliament in the ensuing session, and that the directors have acted with a due regard to the interests of the shareholders in the conditional arrange ment they have made with the North Metropolitan Rail way Company for admitting such of the shareholders of this company as may desire to take part in this under taking to transfer their shares to that company, upon the distinct understanding and engagement, in the event of the Bill for extending the line into the City not being a ed d. a erthe ensuing session, he shareholders shall be : anteed the imm4iecte• - return of the fifteen shillinPler share, without [deduction, and that they shall in no event be subjected to any personal liability in respect of any past or future expense." The motion, as amended, was put from the chair, and ,carried unanimously. Various Shareholders asked explanations with refe rence to the accounts, the conditions of amalgamation, and the details of the proposed line ; the answers to which elicited unanimous approbation. On the motion of Mr. Deputy PEWTRESS, the thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to the directors, for their zealous exertions on behalf of the company ; and the proceedings terminated.

Drummond ; Tiger, 16, steam frigate, Captain H. W. Giffard ; Sampson, 6, steam frigate ; and the screw-sloop Niger, 12, Commander Heath, were at the Golden Horn. The Fury, 6, steam-sloop, Commander Tatham, reached Constantinople on the sth instant with her des patches from Malta and Marseilles, and proceeded on to Therapia with them, to deliver them to the admiral. It has been generally believed that the Leopard, 16, steam-frigate, Captain Giffard, h a d gone out to re i n f orce Admiral Dundas s fleet ; but we hear from Malta that she arrived there on the 9th instant, and left there again on the 11th for England, The only ship of force belonging to the Mediter• • , ranean station not with Admiral Dundas is the Modeste, 114, Commander W. W. Stewart. The Shearwater. 3, steam-vessel, bad arrived at Malta on the 11th from Corfu to be docked, and to have defects made good ; and the Modeste had sailed for Corfu on the sth instant, with the money for the troops and stores there. ACTIVITY AT THE PORTS. --- We learn that there is the greatest activity among all classes and in all departments. From Portsmouth the Superintendent Rear-Admiral Fanshawe, C. 8., was summoned to the Admiralty yes terday. The ships there are to be held ready for sea at telegraphic notice. The Duke of Wellington, 130, screw, Commodore Martin, C. 8., will be paid wages to-day, and may sail f or Lisbon or the Mediterranean. We have stated that the Agamemnon, 91, screw, Captain Mends, has sailed from Devonport to the Medi teranean, where she will take the flag of Rear-Admiral. Sir E. Lyons, G.C.8., as second in command to Vice- Admiral Dundas, to be under the orders of the latter chief ; and we now hear that three other ships will most likely follow her, but will, perhaps, stop short at Lis bon, pro tem. It is likely the Imperieuse, 51, screw, Captain Watson, C. 8., will be off within the next 48 hours. PORTS MOUTH, Nov. 21. Her Majesty's yacht Victoria and Albert, Captain the Hon. Joseph Denman, F.R.S., was removed from dock into the steam factory basin to-day, to reship her machinery, fittings, &c. A little foresight, we think, would have obviated the necessity for this exhibition of reckless waste and destructive zeal. 10,0001. will not repair in months the damage done in a few days. The Court are not expected to revisit Osborne to-morrow, but will do so in a few days. The Omni-, 90, screw-ship, was redocked to-day to proceed with her fittings. The Princess Charlotte, 104, was moved into the fit- ting basin to-day, to await the Aurora Russian frigate leaving the angle dock, when she will proceed to occupy it for a refit. The Spy brigantine, Lieutenant-Commander Beres ford, is ordered to proceed to Sheerness to be paid off. WOOLWICH, Nov. 21. The Rifleman screw steam-sloop, Lieutenant-Com mander Christian, is ordered to have her steam up on Wednesday morning next, and proceed to Greenhithe to have her compasses adjusted preparatory to her depar ture for her destination. She is still a few able seamen short of her complement, but well appointed in every other respect, and she will, no doubt, be able to pick the few A.B.'s she still requires when she calls at the eastern ports, few of that class remaining at Woolwich after being paid off at the port.

N ARROW ESCAPE OP A COUNTY COURT JUDGE.— An accident happened on Thursday last at the Town hall at Tiverton, in Devonshire, which threatened to produce serious, if not fatal, injuries to the judge of the County Court for that district, as well as to a large number of suitors and spectators. For some time past the roof of the hall has been in a very dilapidated con dition ; so much so that it was found necessary, among other expedients, to remove the heavy chandelier which was suspended from the ceiling. Cracks were visible along the whole length of the ceiling, but nothing to excite particular alarm occurred till towards the close of Thursday, when, from the crowded state of the court, the Loam gave way and fell with a tremendous crash toward the judge. As may be imagined, a scene of great confusion followed. A general rush was made to the doors, it being feared that the whole of the u pp e r part of the building was falling in. of Fo persons rttinate must ythuritat did not take place, or a large number have heal killed. As it was, many persons received severe bruises. j R AVESEND STAR PACKETS. Nu other Packets call at the Grays, Greenhithe, and Purfleet Piers.
