cular :—" Bridgewater, Jlarch.—Sir,—The Bridgewater
troop will meet to-morrow (Thursday) morning, at half-
past ten, when it is particuiarly requested that every man
will punctually attend is full msrching order. There would
have been more notice given, but the news only reached
Bridgewater this evening that Napoleon and hi+ troops are
already in the Channel.—By order of Colonel Tvnte, Batts-
brie.—P.S. Any man's Linn-attendance will be a; his peril."
In consequence of this intimation, several of the Yeomanry
met, when the hoax was discovered, and ti.. y returned
much annoyed at the trirk player: on them, tlinigh doubt-
less greatly relieved at finding the alarm was a false one.—

STIRLING AND DUNFERMLINE RAILW.IY.—The
half-yearly meeting of this company took place at Edin-

report was approved of, which stated that the new st.'ion
at Stirling was now nearly completed ; that the passenger
and goods traffic was increasing ; and that, as a mineral
line, the results had already shown it to he second to none
in Scotland. The action against the Edinburgh and Was-
gow Company, for the fulfilment of its guarantee to leaye
and work the line at 4 per cent., stood high on the appeal
list of the House of Lards, sad an early deeisi in was ex-
pected. The directors entertained confident expectation
that the decision of the Court of Session would be in their
favour. The directors thought the shares should now be
conso:idated into stock ; but they postponed tuis proposal
till next meeting, when they could also prop.se to forfeit
all sham on which arrears of caiis then remained unpaid,.
