Porrsmouru, SLPT. I.—Tbe freight brought home
by the Dudalus, 20, Capt. Wellesley, was landed last night
at the dockyard by the Sprightly, steant-veseel, Master
Commanding Allen, and this morning at 10 o'clock it was
conveyed to Load°n in a special railway train, per London,
Brighton, and South Coast Railway, by Messrs. Caber, the
agents to whom it was consigned at this port. The Daunt-
less, 24, screw steam frigate, is to be taken out of dock
into the steam basin to-morrow, and is to be commissioned
forthwith w relieve the Penelope, 16, paddle-wheel frigate,
Captain Lester. Bag-ship of Rear Admiral Bruce, Com-
mander-in-Chief on the West Coast of Africa station. The
Penelope has been in commission since March, 1851. The
weather has again become very unsettled to-usp ; the wind
being very high, and the rain bas fallen without inter-
mission. The Load,., 90, Captain Eden, was to have
sailed this aborting to join Rear Admiral Cony's squad-
ron and the Disdains was to have returned to Plymouth to
be Paid of but their departure has bean retarded by the
high wind and the thick weather. At the dispatch of this
parcel (6 t_nt.), however, a little improvement is manifest.

MIDLAND GREAT WRIITZEN (IRELAND) RAILWAY.
—The statement of meennta to be submitted to the halt
yearly meeting of the Midland Railway proprietary cannot
fail to gin satisfaction. The gram receipts for the railway
and the Royal Canal for the Ma months ending 30th Jane
last amount to 61,0141. ; the expenditure to 21,2101.4. Bd. ;
leaving • profit on traffic of 29,8031. 16e. 44. The direc-
tors recommend a dividend at thereto of 6 per cent. per
annum, after the payment of which a balance of
8,3321. 19e. 4d. will remain to be carried to the neat
half year's anomie. According to this account the com-
pany might pay more than 8 per testi sad still have a
respectable balance toning to the credit of the next half
-year. There is also • charge of 1,6491. for the expenses of
the Royal CanaL There is a separate account for the ea-
t. min line from Athlone to Galway, the receipts from
-which for the first six months amounted to 11,6191. ; the
disbursements to 7,5741. ; the balance to be carried to the
credit of the baronies in Rescomearm and Galway through
which the line runs. This extension line was constructed
with half a million sterling borrowed from the govern-
ment on the securities of the counties benefited by it. It is
not yet paying its expenses, together with the interest due
to the government, but from the rapid improvement ob.
&enable in the west there is every reason to antieipate
that within a year or two the baronies pledged as security
for this loan will be relieved from any contribution
towards the interest.

GLAND CANAL (INALAND).—The half_- yearly
m • of this company was held in Dublin ea Wednes-
day, when a dividend of ids. per cent. was determined on.
