SOUTH WALES. ---- .4 ‘l"' orT.4 • cik; A special meeting of this company was held yes terday at the Paddington Station ; Mr. William Matthews, deputy-chairman presided. Mr. F. SAUNDERS, the secretary, read the notice convening the meeting. The CHAIRMAN said the first resolution be had to submit was one approving a bill, in compliance with the standing orders of the House of Lords, for making a railway from the South Wales line to Portskewit, a steam-ferry across the river Severn, and a railway from thence to Bristol. The object of the promoters was to shorten the communica tion by steam and rail from South Wales to the railways at Bristol and other places. The directors of the South Wales Company thought it desirable to encourage the undertaking, and they had agreed to subscribe a sum not exceeding 26,0001. In lieu of this amount they might be called upon to make about a mile of railwayfromtheir line to the Severn, at Portskewit. After a few observations from Mr. RIDGWAY and other shareholders, a formal resolution approving the bill was adopted. The CHAIRMAN said the next matter for their consideration related to the intended construction of the Pembroke branch. It would be recollected that just before the last meeting an injunction had been obtained to restrain the company from paying any dividend until the Pembroke line was com pleted. An arrangement had been come to with the parties, in order to liberate the dividend. The terms of the arrangement were to the effect that the directcrs of the South Wales Railway were to obtain the assent of the shareholders prior to the Ist July next to the arrangement for making the branch railway from Lang`mna. to Pembroke by the end of 1860, and that the company would make application to Parliament iu the ensuing session for power to construct the line in accordance with the agreement. He concluded by moving a formal resolution, approving the agreement, dated. 20th Feb. last, in respect to the construction of the, Pembroke branch, and authorising the necessary steps to be taken. After some observations from Mr. Ridgway, Mr. Alen, Mr. Rees, and other shareholders, the reso lution was adopted, and the proceedings termi nated. (N o . 20,287.) ` PRIDE 4D.

LADY FRANKLIN'S FINAL SEARCH.— The Government having come to the con clusion that the fate of the crews of her Majesty's ships Erebus and Terror requires no further investigation on their part, Lady Franklin, in accordance with her sense of what is due to the lost navigators, is now fitting out an expedition at her own cost. As a preliminary measure she sought assistance from tho Admiralty, by asking for the loan of the Arctic ship Reso lute, which had been restored in perfect order to our Queen by the American nation, and also for the gift (as granted in her former private expeditions) of such stores from her Ma jesty'i dockyards as are available for this special service only. Compliance with these requests having , been declined, Lady Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final search ; and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen, has been purchased, which the distinguished Arctic officer who has accepted the command of her (Captain McClintock, R.N.) has pronounced to be perfectly adapted to this em ployment. Not repeating the arguments we formerly made use of to induce the Government to undertake a final and exhaus tive search, we hold to the opinion that it is the duty of Englishmen to examine thA limited area whence the traces of our missing countrymen were derived, which, though it lies to the swill of well-searched tracts, and has been ap proache i by vessels that have returned without loss, has never yet been explored. Supported by the advice of those experienced Arctic sea men, in whom she has every reason to confide; Lady Franklin makes this last effort to clear away the mystery that shrouds the fate of her husband and his crews, and possibly to rescue from their insulated icy abode among the Esquimaux some of his younger companions, who may still be prolonging a dreary existence. _ On such an occasion we, whose names are hereunto sub scribed, feel confident that this our appeal will not remain unanswered by the British people, who will, we doubt not, tender to the widow of the illustrious navigator that sym pathy which his fame and her devotion must call forth, and will aid her in carrying out an enterprise involving, as we believe; the honour of the nation, Wo earnestly, therefore, entreat our countrymen to unite with us in contributing to this noble object.

The Board met yesterday in the Council Chamber, Guildhall—Mr. Thwaites, the president, in the chair-- to transact the usual business, and to consider some no tices of motion. The attendance was most numerous, there being 37 members present. The total general balance in favour of the board was announced to be 53,061/. Mr. WRIGHT moved that the resolution of the 12th instant, "That all committees be abolished, excepting the standing committee, under 211th and 212th sections of the Metropolis Local Management Act (committee of appeals), and that the committees in future be appointed by a rota of five members (there being nine committees), as particular cases may arise, so that every member shall become acquainted with the working of that act," so far as the words following are concerned :—" And that committees in future be appointed by a rota of five members (there being nine committees) as particular cases may arise, so that every member shall become ac quainted with the working of that act," be rescinded. Major Lyon, Mr. Doulton, Mr. D'lffanger, Mr. Hawkes, Mr. Hare, and Alderman Cuhitt, M.P., having spoken, the board divided, when there appeared for the motion of Mr. Wright, 27, and against it, 10. Mr. WRIGHT said that the board having rescinded its previous resolution, he would now move " that a com mittee of finance be appointed, consisting of 15 members. Major LYON characterised the proceedioga of the com mittees by the term " jobbery," and having been called on to substantiate his charge, he alluded specially to the appointment of gentlemen on committees who were known to be prejudiced on the subjects they were called to report on ; and be also noticed the exclusion of Mr. Leslie from committees as an act of jobbery. These ac cusations were received with laud expressions of dissent, • and the remarks of the speakers who repudiated the charge of jobbery as unfounded were applauded. Major Lyon compared these expressions of opinion to the noisy uproar of a penny theatre. At the conclusion of the angry discussion, the motion of Mr. Wright was carried by a large majority. The following resolutions were also passed :—" That a com• mittee under the Building Act, and for general pur poses, be appointed, consisting of 15 members ;" and " That no member shall be eligible for election on more than one of those three committees." Monday having been appointed to consider several questions relative to park accommodation, the board ad. journed. The Pays announces that the Russian Prince Medikoff wbo was charged with a private mission to the Shah of Persia, had quitted Teheran on the 18th of May. Dar ing his stay in the Persian capital the Russian Ambas sador received the greatest attention. (ADVERTISER - ANT. I—SIGRT AND HEARING.

A special meeting of the proprietors of the above company was held yesterday, at the Euston-square Terminus, for tne purpose of taking into conside ration the following bills now before Parliament : " A bill for anthorising the conversion of parts of the Shropshire Canal to purposes of a.railway, and the making and maintaining of a railway accordingly, and for autho, rising arrangements between the London and North- W , stm•n Railway' Company sascLathea-companies, and for other purposes. "A bill for making a railway from the Llapidloes and Newtown Railway, in the parish of Llandinam, to the town of Illacbynlleth. " A bill to empower the Stockport, Disley, and Whaley Bridge Railway Company to extend their railway to Buxton. " A bill to authorise the construction of a railway from Caitla Douglas to Portpatrick. " A bill for making a railway from the North and South Western Junction• Railway, in the parish of Ealing., to Richmond, to be called ' The Richmond and Kew Exten sion Railway,' and for other purposes." The meeting wra further made special for the purpose of considering the heads of a proposed ar rangement for a lease of" the undertaking of the Cannock Mineral Railway Company ; and, if ap proved, for giving all needful directions and autho rity for carrying out such arrangement. The first bill in the above list is the only one prompted by this company. The CHAIRMAN said the first bill to which he had to call their attention was that for authorising the conversion of parts of the Shropshire Canal to the purposes of a railway, and the making and main taining of a railway accordingly, and fur authoris ing arrangements between the London and North- Western Railway Company and other companies, and for other purposes. The purport of the bill was stated in the circular which had been sent to the whole of the proprietors, and the reasons which had induced the directors to submit the measure to them were, that the district which it was proposed to supply with. railway acc)mmodation was one where there was a traffic of considerable value. 301% Mr. NATT at considerable length opposed the bill, and suggested the matter should be submitted to the consideration of a committee of share holders. Mr. HAYLEY in an able speech supported the bill. Mr. DICKENSON moved tint a committee be ap pointed to consider the subject. The motion having been seconded, The CHAIRMAN said one or two of the proprie tors had suggested that this question should be well considered, and had proposed an adjournment, which, if carried, would throw the bill over for 12 months. After some discussion, The amendment for referring the question to a committee of shareholders was then put and lost, and the original motion carried by 80 against 6. The CHAIRMAN said it would be necessary to take a poll on the question. Mr. Dickenson and Captain Bigg were appointed scrutineers. The CHAIRMAN said he would proceed to the other business of the day, and take the poll at the conclusion. The next bill he had to produce was one for making a railway from the Llanidloes and Newtown Railway to the town of Machynlleth. The London and North-Western did not promote this bill. The bill had been introduced by parties connected with the Llanidloes and Newtown Rail way ; and it was necessary to submit the measure to the present meeting, as it was intended that working arrangements should be entered into with certain companies, of which the London and North- Western was one. A motion for the approval of the bill was put and carried. The CHAIRMAN next moved the approval of the bill to extend the Stockport, Disley, and Whaley Bridge Railway to Buxton, and for other purposes. The bill was sanctioned, there being only two dissentients against it. This also required a poll to be taken, and the same scrutineers were ap pointed. The CHAIRMAN next moved• the adoption of a bill for making a railway from the North and South-Western Junction Railway to Richmond. The bill was unanimously approve]. The CHAIRMAN stated that the bill for authorising the construction of the Castle Douglas branch would have to be postponed, as it had not s ecured the sanction of the committee of the H ouse of Com mons. The other special meeting with reference to Cannock Mineral Railway Bill was then held, and a motion for its adoption.was carried with four dis sentients only. The meeting was then adjourned until three o'clock, when the report 'of the scrutineers in the Shropshire Canal Bill was given as follows favour of the bill, 4 4 proprietors present, repre senting 627,9231. o f stock paid up, and 37 proxies, representing 593,7421. ; together, 81 proprietors, representing 1,21,6551. Against the bill, 7, re presenting 75)881/. ; no proxies. The poll on the Stockport, Disley, and Whaley Bridge line, gave the same number of votes, repre senting the same amount of property in favour o 68,881/f the measure ; and against it, 5 proprieto rs, Both measures were, therefore, carried. The meeting way then adjourned until Friday Miles opened. 1857. NEW SERIAL BY THE AUTHOR OF " HARRY LORREQUER.
