VAN P AMEN'S ford costpANY.

thin - the twenty-eighth annual meeting of
e"'„ „r" 4 was held at the London Tamen, Bishopsgate-
stret". CAV't LEY in the chair. The report, which was
•"'", en' seed into a detail of the condition and prospects of
the sore
the di .!Nuys and proceeded to state that in consequence of
of de
'coven of gold in the Australian colonies, the value
four
!company's property has: so far increased that the ore-
th town lots at Stanley atol Burney, which for-
, ' ely soli at 201. and 101 rcepectivaly, now realised at the
utoueutioned place 401., and at the latter 101. The direc-
.ors Lai written to their agent to collect specimens of quart:
Cued upon their estates, and to send them home for assay;
and although no specimens had yet arrived, there wsa
every reason to believe that, considering the geological for-
mation was analogous to that of the gold fields of Australia,
precious metals will be found upon their property.
Since the last meeting their agent had forwarded to
England two remittances of 300/. each, but 2,400 head of
cattle still remained unsold. The rental of the company
amounted to 1,7001. per annum, u sum more than sufficient
to meet the expenees of the company. Upon Sept. 30, the
day to which the books were made or., the company had at
the bank at Launceston, 6,0901. 18e. Bd. in bills ; ands cash
balance of 6871. is. Id. whilst the money in hand at the
present moment in London amounted to 3,1061. 6s. Bd.—
Tile Chairman moved and Mr. Parsans seconded the reso.
lotion that the report be adopted. The motion was unani-
mously signed to, when the Chairmen, in answer to ques-
tions from various proprietor*, stated that every means had
been taken to make known the superior advantages of Vail
Diemen's Lend to the settlers in Australia ; that, unless
meter the pressure of extraordinary circumstances, he
might swore the meeting that no future call should be
made ; that 281. 10s. had been paid upon each share ; and
that the difficulties which the company had to contend with
arose from the fact of the government not having given
them a sufficient supply of convict labour.—Mr. C. Bryce
and Mr. Pierce Bryce were re-elected directors of the com-
pany, and other gentlemen were elected in the place of
directors who bad retired. The auditors were then re-
elected, and the proceedings terminated with • Tote of
flunks to the chairman.
