features of the foreign market to-day. They were
freely dealt in—the Peruvian upon the strength of
the completion of the bargain with the Peruvian
government, proposed indeed by the latter, for the
appropriation of a certain proportion of the proceeds
of the guano sales to the payment of interest at a
certain rate on the debt ; the Spanish urn a sort of
general understanding that some distinct proposal
would at length be positively brought forward in the
Cortes, with a probability of its finding favour there,
for the relief of the bondholders ; the project to be
grounded upon the disposal and appropriation
to the object of the property of the church
and of ecclesiastical corporations, and the en-
forced paying up of all arrears upon the im-
mense extent of national properties heretofore pur-
chased, but on which, for the far greater part, but a
fractional proportion has found its way into the na-
tional treasury. Spanish Fives advanced on the faith
of expectations, the authority for which was thus
dubiously defined, to 221 to 3, but at the dote of busi-
ness had receded to 211 to 21; the Threes, 32 to 1;

Bills were mach in demand to-day, and the rates of
foreign exchange consequently lower, that is, in
favour of the sellers, who were not disposed to give
so many florins, francs, or other foreign moneys,
according to place, for the pound sterling. This de-
pression of the rates of foreign exchange may be
regarded as the first effect of the Bank movement in
the reduction of interest. On Amsterdam, the nego-
tiations were 12.41; on Rotterdam' 12.41 to 5 ; on
Antwerp, 28; on Hamburg, 13.141 to t ; on Frank-
fort, 123 ; on Paris, 25.90 to 80 ; on Vienna, 10.17
to 19 ; on Leghorn, 31.10 to 15 ; on Naples, 39 ;
on Madrid, 461 ; all at 3 months. On Lisbon, 511 to

We have the report unfortunately of the ember-
rassmenta of another house in the East India trade
to-day.
We learn from Liverpool that the stoppage of
Messrs. N. Crooke and Co. has been announced. The
firm was in the East India trade, and much respected.
The depositors of the Liverpool Banking Company
met again this morning, wher, the deputation reported
the result of their interview with the Bank directors.
Thew directors now offered to pay one-third of the
deposits in cash on the 10th of February, and to
accept bills payable on Curry and Co., of London, for
the remaining two-thirds, the bills to be due in
August and December. The depositors, by a unani-
mous vote of the meeting, accepted the ffer.
A special meeting of the shareholders in the Union
Joint Stock Bank of Newcastle, Shields, and Sunder-
land was held at Newcastle on Thursday; W. Woods,
Esq., in the chair ; when a series of resolutions were
adopted with regard to the future constitution and
management of the establishment. The present ca-
pital—namely, 500,0001.—is to be increased to
600,001)1. by the creation of new shares of 101. each;
the preferential dividend is to be limited to 7 per cent.;
the office of general director to be abolished, and two
managing directors to be appointed out of the board ;
the guarantee fund to be invested only in parliamen-
tary or government securities, or in the securities of
the Bank of England or the East India Company ; a
rest to be made in the accounts of the company in
March next, or soon after ; the holders of the prefer-
ence shares not to be liable for the present debts and
liabilities of the company ; and another special meeting
to be held as soon as applications shall have been re-
ceived for 20,000 preference shares. These were the
results of the proceedings of the meeting, which was
of course private.
The Bank of England averages for the week end-
ing the 22nd inst. give, as compared with the returns
for the week preceding, the following muffs :

The notes in reserve had increased to 7,447,3851.,
showing an increase of 291,9851., and, with the
specie in the banking department 617,5471., making
a total reserve of 8,064,9321. The extraordi-
nary decrease in " other securities" of 744,5731.
in ono week, consisting mainly of commercial bills
run out, the amount of which, not replaced by other
discounts, may be accepted, together with the large
accumulation of reserve, as the moving cause of the
Bank reduction yesterday. The Bank, by the main-
, tenanee of its higher rate, was in fact losing its dis-
count business, which was naturally passing on the
more preferable conditions obtainable to other banks
and the discount houses. It will be seen that mean-
while the Bank had been increasing its stock of
government securities, partly by direct purchase,
partly by the replacement of stock borrowed, or pre-
viously lent out to parties who had been under the
necessity of applying for, and had obtained, assistance
in that shape. The other heads of this return present
no peculiar feature, as in the ordinary routine of
affairs, and so anticipated.

secunng a uniform interest of four per cent. fur that time,
but with the restriction that this guarantee shall only be as-

RAILWAY BILLS IN PARLIAMENT.
lIISINRIS DISPOSED UP BY EXAMINERS YESTERDAY.
Before Myr. Smith—Room 8.
. _

UNOPPOSED.—CornwaII Railway, Powers for the Great
Western Railway Company, the Bristol and Exeter Railway
Company, and South Wales Railway Company, respectively,
to increase their subscription ; South Wales Railway,
Amendment of Acts; East Lincolnshire Railway, Alteration
of Great Grimsby branch : standing orders complicit with in
all these came.

Orroasn.—Edinburgh and Prrth Railway (from Queens-
ferry to the Scottish Central, with branches—Transter or
lease of Queenshrry—lncorporation of a company for the
purpose of the undertaking, with power to such company to
use the line of the Scot•ish Central): allegations heard.

MEETINGS —SorTH YOILISHIRE, DONCASTER, AND
GOOLE.—Special Meeting to decide whether the contract for
executing certain works should be entered into or not within
the next twelve months.—Dr. Dymond in the chair.—The
Secretary read the eighth skction or the art for giving
further time to railway companies for the completion of
their works, and afterwards a circular letter to the share-
holders from which we quote the following :
- - - -

The amalgamation between this company and the Dim Navigation
Company was, by the resolutions of the houoc of last melon, deferred
until half the capital of the south Yorkshire vhould be paid op. In
I the mean time, however, the surplus profits of the navigation com-
pany Wong to the railway company, and must aecumulate until the
amalgamation takes place, when the amount accumulated will be paid
over, and divided as profits noun the railway capital paid up. Tha
directors have resolved that from the 22nd inst. the rate of dividend
shill be Increased from sto 6 per cent. per annum upon all capital
paid up. Dividend warrants will be footled far the amount of each
half-year, rsyable at the company's bankers' one month after the
amalgamation. The amalgamation will be completed as soon as 101.
I per share shall have been paid up nod laid out on the works. M. per
share in already paid up; and the directors propose, in MAC the money
shall not be sooner pakl in advance, to call up U. per share in the
' course of the present year, via., It. on the Ist of May next; 11. on
I the lot of August next; and D. on the lot of November next. The
remaining 41. necessary to make up one half the capital, the directors
propene to call up In the course of the year 11149. the amalgamation
wall therefore be complete , and the profita divieible, in the course of
1810 at the latest. Shareholders paying voluntarily in advance, so ass
to supersede all calls for the prevent yt'ar, will be allowed interred at 5/.
percent. per annum, roayable half-yearly; ;old it fa proposed to add a d ivi-
timid out of profits of 21. per cent. per annum, payment deferred until
the amalgamation—making U. per cent. upon moneys paid In advance,
and 61. per cent. upon moneys paid on cal* until the opening of the
line from Doomater to Swinton. The amount to be paid in advance
must be limited to such a sum as the directors can profitably employ
in the immediate construction of the works. The directors propose
immediately to execute that part of the lino which extends from Don-
canter to the Midland Railway at Swinton, with a mat line to the
nearest collieries. This, the engineers report, cam he acoomplished
within the year; and it will give an immediate profitable income to
the company.
Mr. Richardson observed that rot one word was mentioned
about their liability to the Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley,
and Goole Company. He had understood that the share-
holders of the South Yorkshire were not bound to take
shares in the Rotherham line.—Mr. Baxter (the solicitor)
said that every shareholder in the South Yorkshire Com-
pany was bound by his subscription contract to take part of
the stock allotted to the company in the Sheffield and Wake-
field line. He admitted. that as between the companies they
could net accept shares in the Wakefield Company till half
the capital was paid up, but the individual shareholders were
hound to take their proportion of shares in the Sheffield and
Wakefield Company. He should he happy to show that
gentleman's solicitor under what authority they were com-
pelled to take any shares allotted.—Mr. Richardson admitted
the value of the line, but was only wishing for a clear expla-
nation as to their responsibility with regard to that line.—
Mr. Thompson (a director) said it was agreed that the
directors of the South Yorkshire should purchase
shares in the Sheffield and Rotherham line—Mr. Jo-
siah Wilson asked bow they stood towards the Dun
Navigation Company ?—The Chairman stated that the
railway company allowed to the Dun company 1201. per
share interest till the railway was opened, and then 150
shares of the railway for each Dun navigation share. When
the railway was opened they could pay off the Dun propri-
etors by returning them 3,0001. per share any time within
tea years.—The assents and dieeents were then enumerated
by the secretary, when there appeared to he 14,52.5 shares
present at the meeting, out of which 11.135 were assents,
and 3,300 were dissents, being considerably over three-fifths
required by the act of parliament.—Mr. J. Wilson was
afraid that those who dissented had only done so from dire
necessity of circumstances.—The resolution for proceeding
was therefore carried, and the meeting adjourned.

KENDAL AND WINDERMERE.—IfaIf-Yearly 3feetirip.—
Kendal, Jan. 25 —Mr. J. Gandy in the chair.—The directors'
report stated th.it, in consequence of the cost of a double
line instead of a single one, as originally intended, applica-
tion had been made to parliament for power to raise ad-
ditional capital. The amount expended in doubling the line
had been about 45,000!. The capital account to 31st Dec.,
1847, showed that 151,478!. had been received, and 169,8881.
expended, leaving a balance of 18,4101. due by the com-
pany. From the revenue account for the half-year ending
31st December, it appeared that 5,6.50/. had been received,
and 3,393!. expended, leaving a profit of 2,1571. The rev et
was adopted —At the Special Meeting, held shortly after-
wards, resolutions were passed approving of the bill for
raising additional capital, not exceeding 50,000/. in share*
and 16,0001. by loans; and confirming the forfeiture of 468
shares for non-payment of calls.

SHREWSBURY. AND BIEMINOHAM. - Sp'cial General
ifeeting.—Wolverhampton, Jan. 28.—Mr. 0. Gore, M.P.,
in the choir.—This meeting was held pursuant to the provi-
gone of the I Ith Victoria, and was for the purpose of deter-
mining whether contracts for executing certain works, should
be entered into within twelve months after the passing of
the act referred to. These works comprised, first, the branch
line from Shiffnall to Madeley and Ironbridge (originally a
part of the line contemplated by the Dudley, Madeley, and
Bewley Company); :and.' secondly, the station at 3Aolver
hamptoo and junction with the main line, authorised by the
Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Rail-
way Act of 1.816. The report of the directors stated,
that by the act above noticed, the consent of
the shareholder* was required previously to entering
lato contracts for the works already named, and
they declared their own views iu the following terms: "The
directors, considering it to be for the advantage of the share-
holders that the works on the main line from Shrewsbury
to Wolverhampton should be finished with as little delay as
possible, so as to realise as early a return as practicable on
the outlay, have no intention of using the capital at their
disposal for other works so as to impede that result. At
the same time it must be kept in mind that the branch line
from Sbiffnal to Madeley and Ironbridge is intended to ac-
commodate the important traffic between South Stafford-
shire and the Coaltrookdale district, and that the traffic on
the mainline mustfbeconsiderably increased when this branch

ir opened. If thes; objects can b; effected without an imme-
diate outlay on the part of the proprietors, it will obviously
be their interest to avail themselves of any ouch opportunity.
The directors have accordingly to report that they have re-
ceived offers from the principal landowners oa the has to
receive the company's debentures for the land required;
they have also received an offer from a most respectable con-
tractor to enter into a contract for the works on advanta-
geous terms, and t receive a considerable put of the amount
in like manner. It is, therefore, on the condition that such
contract shall not increase the amotnt of calls during the
present year that the proprietors are asked to sanction the same.
The other contract proposed to be entered into will involve a

much smaJer outlay of capital, and may be required for the
completion of the main line, as it is at present uncertain
which lines will first bo completed beyond Wolverhampton
-whether the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour
Valley, in connexion with the high-level station, or the Bir-
mingham, Wolverhampton, and Dudley, in connexion with
the low-level--by either of which this company will secure a
continuous line to Birmingham." At the time this report
waii:elo•ed the votes of the shareholders had not been an-
nounced ,• but judging from the number of schedules then
examined, there can be no doubt but that the " assents" to
the view taken by the directors exceeded the "dissentients"
by a very large majority.
Br In/MOHAN AND OX FORD UNCTION. -Adjourned tine-
cinl sleeting.-Birmingham, Jan. 28.-Mr. R. H. Musty. in
the chair.-The suit before the Lord Chancellor being
still pending, Mr. Colereore moved a further adjournment
until Saturday, Feb 19, which was agreed to.
MISCELLANEOUS N E WS.-OREAT NORTH ERN.-
We (Doncaster Chronicle) understand that the earthwork
between the Bentley hank and the Junction with the Askern
Branch at Reedholm, will be completed at the end of the
present month (January), and that the permanent rails will
be proceeded with as early as possible, in order that the line
may he ready for opening early in spring. The line between
Bentley and Doncaster is not in so forward a state, owing to
the works being of a much heavier character, but no time
will be lost in comp!. ling the junction with the purposed
Doncaster S•ation. The company have not yet completed
the purchase of all the land required for the site of the station
and plant, but negotiations are drawing to a close, and in a
few days they will be in possession of all they require. It is
satisfactory to state that so far the company have not found
it necesaary to appeal to a jury, although the prices asked
have been exorbitant, and those paid most liberal. We un-
derstand that it is the intention of the company to form a
spacious dock in the Crimpsall, and the first erection will
probably be en extensive iron foundry by the side of it-The
line through and on the east side of Lincoln is proceeding
rapidly.
