Established is Wells-atnat. 11190. to bear the advantages of that line, by the transmiasibortisa3
the traffic by way of Byer's-green, that being the point at
which the two lines are separated at present.
Mr. GUTCH, one of the company s solicitors, proceeded
to state the contents of the bill in detail. The first clause
provides for the transmission of the traffic from and to
Byer's-green. Another clause enabled this camping is
hold shares in the West Durham Railway, and another
gave them n right of voting at the meetings of that owns
pony. Then came some clauses authorising the consolldas
tion of the shares of the above-named companies into stock.'
The 18th clause relieves this company from the necessity of
running cheap trains at 20 miles an hour. and proposes to
reduce the spied to 12 mile. an hour. The other clauses
were such as are introduced generally into railway bills.
The CHAIRMAN stated that the effect of this bill would
be a saving of the cost of ronatructing a new line,
at originally proposed—ab.nit 70,0001. Instead of that new
line being made, this company was now to receive the
traffic from the Ilyer's-green brunch of the Clarence Rail-
way. In addition to the clauses of the bill, as actually
printed, it had been thought desirable that another claws
should be framed (and upon which he would take a sepa-
rate vote), as to the holding of shares in the Woo Durham
Railway. The number of shares now held by this cow
pony is 2,937—the number held by other parties 1,1)00, and
it had been thought advisable, in order to keep up the intim
once of this company, that a clause should be inserted
the bill to spread their shares over a considerable number
of persons, and thus give them considerable influence is
the West Durham Company. Ile moved fret, as to the
bill itself, that it be approved, and that the directors be
authorised to prosecute it through parliament, and to make
such alterations therein as they may deem advisable, and
as the legislature may saner' or require.
Mr. KIPLING seconded the motion, and the resolution
approving of the bill WI, then carried unanimously.
1 hr CHAIRMAN next moved the adoption of the addi
tiunul claim to which he had referred.
Mr. LEECIIMAN seconded the motion, which was also
adopted without dia,ent.
Mr. GUTCII then statel the contents of the atcond
He observed that the abandonment only applied to a mile
of the branch, and that in respect of the levels. The other
material part of the bill was that which gave the company
a year more for the purchase of lands, and three years kr
the making of the line.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the bill, and
Mr. M`LAREN seconded the motion.
The CHAIRMAN, iu answer to questions from shares
holders, stated that no contract had as vet been entered
into fur the construction of the line. There had been a
soul' quantity of land yurchased—one mile. The entire
length of the line was 14 miles.
Mr. MAUDE asked if it hail yet been determined to
make this line? It hail hung over from year to year, and
he thought it was high time the shareholders knew.
The CHAIRMAN said, when they had gut the consent
of parliament, the directors would come before the share-
holders, and ask their approval of the course they might
think fit to pursue. It was not desirable for the directors
to pledge themselves at present. The time would arrive,
of course, when the question would be answered.
Mr. M'LAREN said it was perfectly understood that no
new works should be undertaken without the shareholden
being specially called together to give their sanction to it.
As to the cost of getting the bill, all the heavy fees were
paid on the second uading ; and, therefore, there would be
very little additional expense. it was obviously, he thought,
fur the interest of the shareholders to pass this resolution.
The CHAIRMAN said the company were at present in
possession of powers which would expire in July, and if
they were driven now to make this line, it woold be found
very inconvenient, and it would be much better therefore
to have the opportuuity of considering the question for a
longer period, and to have also a longer period to carry oat
the works.
Mr. MAUDE—In default of information now, at what
time are we likely to get information from the direeton?
(Laughter.)
The CHAIRMAN—As morn as we have sufficiently
weighed the importance of the matter, we shall be glad to
give you every infonnation. (.'Oh, oh," and Flaugh.)
The resolution was then carried unanimously.

The CHAIRMAN moved the adjournment of the meet-
ing until Ssiturday next, at the None hour and place.
