As, however, the original Share holdeipiin the latter Company had, previously to the amalga matioir with this Company, agreed to subscribe the sum of 4300,000, being one-fourth of the Capital required towards the formation of the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley Bailwav (with which the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Company haying-nothing to do,) it is provided in the act as one of thterms of the amalgamation, that two classes of shares slialLbe" created, to be termed respec tively Class A shares and Glass B shares. The latter class represents half the abov entioned capital of 41,000,000 (viz. 4500,000) required for nstructin e ,.* the line from Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton, d the Class A shares represent the other half of that capital, together with the additional sum of .e 300,010 to be subscribed on account of that class exclusively towards the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley line. The position of the two classes of the Shareholders will therefore be as follows :—Assuming that (as it is presumed will be the case) the holders of the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction scrip claim the shares to which they are entitled, then Class A will have 52,000 shares of £l5 75. 9d. each, and Class B the same number of shares of 49 128. 3d. each, which share will be credited with 12s. as a deposit.

The Committee meet the Proprietors on the present occasion with much satisfaction, since they are enabled to report th e at tainment of that which was the original object of the constitu tion of the Company, namely, the passing in the session just tion of a Railway from Shrewsbury to WolverhaniPtOic. - 1; doubtless most of the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Proprietors are aware, they were not the only parties seeking to obtain that object. An influential body known as the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company also in troduced a bill into Parliament, which, if it had been passed in its original form, would have authorized a line (to the exclusion of this Company's) between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, though only as a part of a more extended undertaking from the form - er towii to Birmingham. Since the two lines as between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton were and necessarily must be rubstantially identical in point of route, it has ail along been the desire of your Committee to bring about an amalgamation with the other Company for the attainment of the object thus clearly common to both—leaving the extension line from Wol verhampton to Birmingham open to be made by other parties who might be so inclined. But the Shrewsbury and Birming ham Company, it is understood experienced great difficulty, owing to alliances which they bad formed, in agreeing to such an amalgamation, until the period at which it was ultimately decided upon, namely, whilst both bills were pending in the committee of the House of Commons, when arrangementswere made satisfactory to all concerned. The following is a copy of the short Memorandum of Agreement signed by the counsel of the respective companies, and will, it is believed, be at once intelligible to the local proprietors, though to others it may be necessary to state that the main difference between the two lines, as between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, was, that whilst your line was laid down on a low level at Wolverhamp ton, the Shrewsbury and Birmingham was on a high level. con( OF MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT : Shrewsbury and Birmingham and Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton and South Sta.egrdshire Junction Railways. That if the committee adopt the low level, then the Shrews bury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire line is to be taken. That if the committee adopt the high level, then the Shrews.. bury and Birmingham line is to be taken. That if both levels at Wolverhampton be adopted, then the Shrewsbury and Birmingham line to be taken, and a fork made out of it to the low level station, at a gradient of 1 in 129.

IR WR, •For the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company Committee Room, No. 26, florae of Commong, - - This agreement was confirmed by the separate Acts subse quently obtained by this Company and by the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company, and they contain the requisite provi sions for carrying it into effect. Those provisions will be read at length if any proprietor desires it, and therefore your Com mittee will not attempt any other epitome of them than the very general one just given. There cannot in the opinion of your Committee be the slightest doubt of the policy or pro priety, either in a•public or private point of view, of your de ciding on - the present occasion to avail yourselves of the option secured to you by the Acts of Parliament of amalgamat ing with the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company, and tak ing (in your due proportion) 500,000, being half the total capital authorized to be raised for the Shrewsbury and Wolver hampton line, with the nomination of one-third of the future Directors of the amalgamated company, and your Committee unanimously recommend to you this coirse. If this be your decision, it will be necessary for you at this meeting to resolve formally that the number of Directors shall be nine, next to name those nine, and then to resolve also that you agree to the amalgamation on the terms Of the Act of Parliament. Your Committee will take the needful steps for carrying out the de tails of the arrangement, (some of which remain yet for more mature consideration,) but would not omit the present oppor tunity of stating, for the information of every proprietor, and calling his special attention to this fact, that lie forfeits all in terest in the undertaking if lie fails to signify his acceptance of the new shares (which will have to be offered to him in exchange for his present scrip) within the period and in the manner which will be stated in a notice and circular which will be is sued in a week or ten days from this time, and wherein the share arrangements will be minutely detailed. There has not yet been time to obtain a full and accurate statement of the accounts of the company up to this date, but it will be the immediate duty of the nine gentlemen to whoin you may this day entrust the future management of your af fairs, to get in all the outstanding bills, and ascertain the exact amount of expenditure as speedily as possible. In conclusion, your Committee desire to express, their unabated confidence in ,the soundnes.s and promising character of the undertaking, and also the great personal gratification they will receive if it shall be the pleasure of this meeting to elect that the um.lertaking shall be henceforward promoted by means of the joint funds, and with the united energies of the Shrewsbury and Binning. ham and the Shrewsbtirv, Wolverhampton; and South Stafford. shire Subscribers and Directors, us one amalgatnated body.

We promoters of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway readiness to take on the passenger to his destination ; and these trips will be repeated as often, and at such places, not only in the great thoroughfares, but' in their intersectines, as shall he judged best suitable to the public convenience. The present Omnibus fare being Sixpence for any distance, however short, and to be paid over and over again, if business or pleasure call the passenger to make stops on his route, travelling thus becomes a serious expenditure ; but by the new system a somewhat discursive journey can be taken at the cost of a few pence. The advantages to be derived by the public at this trivial expenditure are, the saving of wear and tear of clothes and shoes,—shelter from the heat and other inclemency of the weather, the sparing the personal fatigue occasioned by walk ing, —the enabling housekeepers and their servants to attend the best markets, the shopkeeper to send his parcels, and artizans to remove their families from crowded dwellings into the country air, because of the cheapness of that transit which will enable him to add an hour to his labour, and come to it unfatigued, much to the benefit of himself and his employer. To the aged, the invalid, and the infirm, it will afford the means of locomotion at a cheap rate ; in fact, there is no class uninterested in the success of a measure so much tending to personal ease and convenience; and the Company is divided into small Shares, to enable the public, whose business it is, to give it their support, and partake of the advantages it will afford. _ Particular attention will be paid to the accommodation, and taking to their destination, of passengers by the Railways; and where large bodies of workmen congregate, accommodation will be afforded at such hours in the morning, dinner-time, and evening, as will best suitthem. • Neither ilie formation of this Company, nor its operations, require an Act of the Legislature, but simply a Deed of Settle ment, which will be prepared and settled by Counsel on behalf of all parties ; but until the same shall he executed, the Directors have the right of making such alterations in, and additions to, the plan of the Company, as they may deem advisable. The projectors, who reg i s t ere d (p rov i si o na lly) this Company, on the twenty-ninth day of September last, in consideration of their exertions in projecting, maturing, and introducing to the Shareholders, a Company promising such great advantages, being willing to look only to a small fractional part of the sur plus profits for their reward, it is stipulated and agreed on, shall have, during the continuance of the Company, in equal fourth parts, to the use of themselves , four-twentieths of such surplus profits as may remain afler defraying all costa and barges, and allowing - a reasonable sum for wear and tear, and after paying a dividend to the Shareholders of Five Pounds per Centum per Annum on the Capital subscribed—the same to be paid annually, and whenever otherwise a dividend of profits shall be made.

He is also too ready to grapple with every subject that comes before him, whether he understands it or no t. This leads him to talk on so many questions, that h• cannot render himself perfeet on any.
