Messrs.

..ar. W. MANYIELD. of Portosham House, who WWI next
called upon, said nearly all present knew no well as he did
that during the last flee yeara he had devoted almost his
whole time and attention to this "little" matter, the
carrying out of which is of the greatest importance. Some
time ago he and sorne friends went in for a Bill, but the
movement then fell through. Ni, less than 1:7,500 was
spent on the occasion. But, although the attenapt failed
for the time very great good was done. Those who
petitioned against the Bill came round to the way of
thinking of supporters, and now the new company found
every thing
fair and sn,ooth. Of the money spent in up-
holding the former Bill the present company had the
advantage; the money did not come out of their pockets
—it had all been paid. The new company began de noes,
with a totally uuopposed scheme—bet with all the
advantages derived from the previous expenditure. The
fact of these expenses haying beee met would tell largely
in favour of the shareholders whim the dividends had to
be paid. It struck him that in starting the railway to open
up most valuable minerals they were Petting an example
to the whole county. The Swanage Railway ComPanY. he
saw, were following in their steps, but they simply in-
tended to open up a stone quarry, whilst in the neighbour-
hood of Ablotebury and Portesham an immense mass of
valuable mineral* would be developed. A very rich abide
abounded in the neighbourhood to an unhinged extent;
it certainly could not be exhausted for many generations.
Ile must tell the meeting that during the last
few days the directors had received a very appreciable
addition to their strength ; indeed a greater addition in
the shape of local help they could not have. He alluded
to the Earl of Ilchester—(appause)—who had not only
taken a large nusuber of shares but had kindly consented
to allow his name to be placed on the list of the
directorate. (Applause.) His lordship had that day been
unanimously appointed a director of the company. (Re-
newed applause.) He had no doubt the meeting would
agree with him it was exceedingly kind of his lordship to
consent to be a director. (Hear, tear.) The noble Earl
would by his influence as such render the company most
*saleable assistance, and there was now a clear prospect of
success in the undertaking. Mr. Mantield passed on to
express a hope that many present would take shares and
bear in mind that if the 'sinews of war" were neglected
the war must very soon come to an end. He said if they
lost the present opportunity of haying a railway formed
they would no doubt regret the loss as long as they lived.
Reverting to L lichester, he had topropose aresolution
with which he thought every one would most heartily
agree. It was "That this meeting rejoices to hear Lord
Ilchester has shown the great interest he takes in the
Abbotabury Railway by accepting a seat at the Boar.) of
Directors—to which he has been unanimously elected."
(Applause.) He believed all present would concur with
him in recording a public vote of thanks to the noble
Earl, and feel that they were deeply inlebted to his
lordship for his kindness in this matter. (Hear, hear.)
Without his lordship they could not have possibly
expected to pull through. Now, however, they might
reasonably hope to meet with the greatest success. He,
therefore, hoped the resolution would be carried ni est
heartily. (Applause.)
The resolution having been seconded by Mr. STOCULEY,
who most appropriately expressed himself, was carried
with acclamation.
The CHAIRMAN thought they could but feel exceedingly
gratified by the announcement made by Mr. Mantield—
that Lord Ilchester had thrown in his lot with them in
carrying out this great project. He regarded it as a very
important circumstance that his lordship had not only
consented to take a large interest in the concern, but at
the same time to accept a *eat on the Board of Directors.
That was a pretty g sei guarantee not only of the proper
conduct of the business, but al-o if the company's
ultimate secceas. His lordship's interest in the under-
taking in a variety of ways must be very considerable.
Therefore there could be no doubt that he would advance
the prosperity of the coupany, and at the same time the
prospects ot the neighbourhood in whi.h he possessed so
much property. (Applause.)
Mr. HAWKINS moved "That this meeting having heard
the statement* just in ele regarding the Abbotelary
Railway is satisfied that the scheme is feasible and
promising, and that if carried out it cannot fail to be of
great advantage t , the surrounding district. It therefore
pledges itself to use every effort in its promotion."
Mr. Hoesos, in seconding the motion, reniarkesl on
the inexhaustible supply of Arun stone in the district,
where wells 40 feet deep did not reach the bottom of the
The motion was earned unanimously, the CHAIRMAN
observing the very fact of theme not being a single
dissentient was in itself another augury of great success.
(Applause.)
Mr. WALKER propieed a vote of thanks to the chairman
for the ability with which he had conducted the proceed-

THE ABBOTSBURY RAILWAY.
MELTING AT ABBOTSBITZT.
The Right Hon. the Earl of Ilchester having just
been added to the Board of Directors there is now
every probability of the " first sod" on the route of the
proposed new railway being turned ere long, anti it is
hoped in the suspicions event the C.iuritess of Ilchester
will kindly consent to take the leading liart. A public
meeting in support f the railway schetne —which has
now every prospect of a successful issue—was held at
the Ilchester Arms Inn, Abbotsbury, on Thursday
afternoon, under the presidency of Mr. Richard P.
Edwards, of Clan Villa, Bath, there being also present
Mr. T. Anderson Hanson (London), Mr. John Walker
(Croyilen), Mr. W. lifanfield (Portesham House), Mr.
Charles Nloore (F.G.8., of Bath), Mr. Edwin Burnett
(Dorchester), the local solicitor to the compatly ; and
many others, the room being thronged by residents of
the locality.
The CHAIRMAN observed he was very pleased to
meet that assembly at Abbotsbury, and hoped before
he had concluded his remaiks to enlist their hearty
sympathies in the present commercial and social
scheme—the establishment of the proposed railway
between Upwey and Abbotsbury. Some of those
present who lived in the country and had not given
their minds and attention, as many others had done,
to the construction of railways and the results arising
from them, would be amazed if they were told of many
of the facts and statistics on the subjegt. There were
in this England of ours spots which had for centuries
been sterile and profitless, but by the introduction of
railways were at the present time fertile anti vast
sources of wealth. He could remember when the late
Lord Berby—the father of the present earl—was him-
self a very strong and energetic opponent to the intro-
duction of a railway across his estates, and no doubt
his lordship was influenced in his opposition by the
sincerest of motives. But the proposed railway was
introduced, and his lordship had the satisfaction of
knowing just before he ilied that it had increased the
value of his estates threefold. There were at present
districts, most important and flourishing towns in
England, increasing the wealth of the country to an
untold extent, simply because there were in those
districts enormous deposits of ore, %filch had developed
to a large extent by the railways. The neighbour-
hood between Abbotsbury and Upwey was on a
parallel with some of chime flourishing places. Many
of our great mineral districts were simply great
because of the minerals existing there. Some of the
large towns were, years ago, mere villages. He might
mention liarrow-in-Furriess, one of the most important
and flourishing towns in the North of England.
Ft .rty years ago there were only three or four houses
there: it had become a flourishing colony of people,
and the people were the means of increasing the
prosperity of distant parts of the country. To a large
extent the district of Abbotsbury might be developed
to something like the proportions and magnificence of
the places of which he had been speaking, as also of
others. A railway must be a great source of advan-
tage to a district, independent of its special mineral
resources. We lived in an age when we had to make
haste, to hurry to anti fro ; if we did not rise early we
were soon left behind in the race of life, and lost our
position in society. Now seeing the enterprise of
others it was perfectly legitimate and natural we
should be stimulated by their example. The neigh-
bourhood of Abbotabury WAX abounding in mineral
and agricultural wealth, but in consequence of the
absence of a railway there was not the means of coin.
petition with the inhabitants of similar localities.
Except at a great cost of transit there could not at
present be brought on the land the valuable artificial
manure, which under ordinary circumstances of rail-
way traffic would yield a ten-full return. Now with
regard to the proposed railway, several gentlemen from
Bath and London had joined in forwarding the present
scheme. They were influenced not so much by a
desire to help the inhabitants to fertilise the soil
as by the prospect of the benefits which would arise
from the minerals with which the district abounded.
Those minerals were on the surface of the ground
—a fact known to those whom he was now addressing
better than to himself. There were enormous
deposits of iron ore of immense value, in fact
much more valuable than those in some other
parts of the country. And, bodies the iron ore,
there were splendid layers of Purbeck stone. This
discovery had induced certain gentlemen from a
distance to put their shoulders to the wheel and give
what little force and influence they could to develops
the mineral resources of the neighbourhood. If the
scheme was carried out it would be of immense
advantage to the neighbourhood from a commercial
point of view. But independent of that, there was
everything in their social anti political economy to
induce them to determine the proposed railway
should be constructed. Beyond the splendid inherit-
ance of the minerals, providence had placed within
their reach a commercial inheritance. The Railway
Bill had passed through Parliament; the Act was in
the hands of the promoters, who were prepared to
carry out the scheme if they only received adequate
support. Now to get a Bill through Parliament
involved a vast amount of trouble ; it incurred a vast
amount of anxiety. All this had been successfully
gone through, and if the present scheme were now
carried out the shareholders would reap the advantage.
Mr. Edwards pressed the importance of not letting
slip the present chances of profiting by the boon, lie
said unless the railway were now constructer' there
was scarcely a probability of its formation for many
years to come. At the present moment they had the
fruit to their line, all events within reach. It would
be to the interests of the residents of the locality to do
what they could to forward the movement, to back up
the efforts of Mr. Nlanfield, Mr. Burnett, and other
gentlemen associated with them. Let them put their
shoulders to the wheel, determining to give "a long
pull, a strong pull, a pull altogether." Then many
would by and by be surprised by the enhanced value
of their land. Their domestic comfort would be
increased, they would be enabled to maintain their
families in a better condition than in the past; they
would be enabled to furnish their houses better, to get
better clothing, to raise themselves in a moral and
social scale. As several friends were as-fail in regard
to some of the facts in connection with the scheme he
should now call upon them to address the meeting ; he
would simply conclud by again urging the residents of
the locality to support the movement to the best of
their ability. (Applause.)
Mr. CHARLES ?nooks, F.G.S., of Bath, commenced
practical and well received speech by commenting in
terms of satisfaction on the fact that Lord Beholder,
after giving the whole details of the subject very careful
consideration, had consented not only to have the minerals
worked, but to assist the railway company in a way
which Mr. Manfield would shortly tell them. (Applause.)
This, of sourse, was a very important element in con-
nection with the success of the undertaking. (If ear
hear.) With regard to the minerals, to which Mr.
Edwards had referred, no doubt there was an enormous
deposit of iron ore; nothing but nick and shovel were
required to extract it from the sod. No mining opera-
tions, no sinking of shafts, no great amount of uncertainty
were involved. Trucks had simply to be taken to the
ridings and ore could then he conveyed to ths furnace
mouth. Mr. Moore called attention, as he had done at
the Dorchester meeting, to the marvellous progress of
Middlesboro', in Yorkshire, owing to the iron trade.
Thirty )ears ago little more than a farmhouse occopied
the present site of Middlesboro'. Now the population of
the town was at least :10.000. This growth was all owing
to an enterprising miner, who went from Wales to the
North of England, and who discovered that what looked
like ordinary building stone really contained fron—his
quick eye and experience told him it was valuable iron
alone. That 1••• • Mr labourer named Vaughan. Hs

ing the vote of thanks to Mr. Edwards not only as chair-
man that day, but because he had shown such activity and '
tact in the conduct of the company's businexo up to the
present time. lie believed they owed to that gentleman
a great dela of gratitude. (Hear, hear.) He was at a
meeting the other evening in London when a friend of his
was' giving asort of description of a tour on the Continent.
Speaking of a journey up the Pyrenees' his friend said on
the occasion of their previous visit he and his party
reached a miserable village, but now they were struek
with wonder, for it was • different place altogether. It
*Ai quite a prosperous' locality, new houses and other
buildings having been erected. The change MAN effected
solely by the introduction of • railway. A similar
metamorphosia might be effected at Abbotsbury by the
same means. Indeed it might be made as prosper-ins and
independent that by and by it would ho ilidieult to get •
pipe if tobaccv in the plans. (Laughter.) The friend of
his to whom lie had just alluded went to Bilboa—a place
where iron was found, and which had consequently
become an enorm 'ualy thriving district. Why, asked
Mr. Hanson, ahoull we go to Spain to get iron ore whim
it could be found in euch immense quantaleo in the
neighbourhood of Abbotsbury 1 Speaking of the many
obstacles raised to forming the railway company he
remarked one party excused lamed( by stating hub money
woo ievested in the Three per Cent. Commis, and lie could
not remove it. That reminded him of the parable told in
the Holy Scriptures. The man who had five talents went
and trailed with them and gained live talents more.
Another who had two talents used them and gained two
more, while the man who h-al only one talent went and
hid it. The speaker urged that the Abladdsury Railway
scheme wee one of the best id investments. He mentioned
there wax about to take place another meeting at Wey-
th, and in conclusion urged all present to do all they
could to promote the success of the railway; then they
would 14001:1 be enabled to travel between Upwey and
Abbotabury in whatever class carriage they liked on the
line.
The motion was carried by acclamation.
The CHAIRMAN, in acknowledging the compliment, said
he had h.' an exceedingly pleasant duty. Without any
invidionsneao he might remark that to see the dudes taken
up would afford him Inc better satisfaction than any
amount of thanks paid to himself. The speaker pasised
on to observe that recently at Barnsley, in the Midland
counties, :WO vellums sat down at a rejoicing banquet, not
on the conpletion of a railway developing the mineral
resources of the district, but simply because there had
been discovered a vien of coals 440yarile below the surface
of the earth, and for which search had been made shift
May, len. It had taken two and a-half years to find
what was believed to exist in the bowels of the earth, and,
after time, energy, and labour had been spent, and it was
discovered, there was great rejoicing. Now at Abbotabury
and Portesham there were deposita of mineral wealth
which were about to be turned to good accouat, and
towards that end it wee hoped the railway scheme would
be heartily supported. Mr. Edwards remarked on the
tardiness with with the shares on the Portland Railway
and the Weymouth Steam Packet Company were at first
taken, and the subsequent regret at the delay, seeing that
those companies had been no signally succe.ful. He
returned thanks for the vote so heartily accorded him.
(Applause.)
Mr. Moone called attention to the fact that if the
scheme were not carried out the money deposited by the
shareholders would be returned to them.
The CHAIR/UN : The sharea are better than Turkish
beads. (Hear, hear, and laughter.)
The proceedings then ended. Several fresh shares in
the railway were taken.
