BUFFALO AND LAKE HURON RAILWAY.
(THIS DAY.)

The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders was
held at 1 o'clock, at the Loadoa Tavern, Mr. Pinup
RAWSON in the chair.

The report having been previously issued, was taken a
read. _ _ _

The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, observed that
the total outlay of capital within the half year was
7,000/., and the directors believed that no further
remittances would be required to complete the work in
band. The gross revenue of the half year showed a consi-
derable increase, but the net result was not satis-
factory, owing to the heavy items of charges,
which almost absorbed the ►ugmented receipts.
Among the sources of increased expenditure were
renewals of permanent way and locomotive charges.
301 more trains were roar in the last half year, than in the
corresponding one of 186 L The amount paid to the New
York Central had also increased. Notwithstanding the great
increase of working expenses the line was worked at a lower
rate than any other line in the same part of the world.
It was now proved that a large traffic might be
carried over the railway at ■ fair profit, the muses
which prevented financial success being of a tempo-
rary character. The traffic prospects could not be satis-
factory in the present state of America. At present
they were carrying next to nothing to Buffalo,
owing to this cause ; and until there was a rise
of prices in Buffalo compensating for the loss
on exchange no improvement could be effected.
About 13,000 of the recently created shares had been
taken up, and the money received had been disposed of
in paying off the floating debt, and redeeming such of the
chattel bonds as the directors could get into their hands.
As regarded the relations of that company with other com-
panies, he regretted to say that it did not receive those faci-
lities in traffic which they required from either of their
two great neighbours. They had nothing to blame them.
selves for in that respect, and he could not understand
why a union which was admitted by all three companies to be
so desirable, had not been effected.
After a short discussion the report was adopted, and the
proceedings terminated in the nasal manner.

A Poirsa Fttsmut. Smtvics. —Th is morning a

George's Cathedral. Southwark, for the purpose of condoling

it wee stated the count wee not allowed to see while she was

bed. The count is at present a refugee in Loudon.
MARRIAGE OF THE DAUGHTER OF THE ARCH-
BISHOP or CANTERBOET.—Yesterday, Caroline Georgians
Langley, the third daughter of the Archbishop of Canter-
bury, was united in marriage with Major Lovett. of the
10th Royal Husears, now stationed at York. The cere-
mony was performed in the church at Bishopthorpe, near

York, and a distinguished party of ladies and gentlemen.

who officiated on the occasion wee the Hon. and Rev. G.
W. Bourke, rector of Newton, Lincolnshire, and the brother-
in-law of the bride. The latter was " given away" by the
' Archbishop, and in the afternoon the happy pair left for
Wyelisor.park, Staffordshire, the family residence of Major
Lovett.
