CALKDONIAN RAILWAY COMPANY.—An extra-
ordinary ge ere! meeting of the shareholders of this com-
pany was bud in Glasgow on Tuesday, for the purpose of
authaielng the directors to raise, by the creation of new
shares of stock, wain aims of money for the coastruotioo
of new beenebes in amnesia with the railway. Mr. Thos.
Salkeld, chairman of the company, presided. The Chairman
said—ln 1868 the Caleb:clan Company obtained bills for
the constrootion of three differt nt branches—the Delmar-
nook branch, the broach to Port-Carlisle Railway, and the
Symington, Sieve, and Broughton branch ; and in
1869 they oaa.. powers from parliament to maker
• branch called the Wilsontown Drench. Hitherto
the Manors have sbatained from asking the share-
holders to give their sanction to the raking of the fends to
the construction of these branch,.. bemuse it wee believed
that by defer,* it until they actually required the a:
that money might be raised at a cheaper ratanth it eiig;
have beenperamiee, sad I believe that our reparations
will not
be ted. It a now necessary that we should
ask the of the shareholders to raise the sum of
77,0001. for the emigration of those branches. It is pro-
posed that we should ram the money at the nets of 4g per
mot., end we believe that the Mock will Boat, sad that rate of
Interest. The chairman then proposed the necarary formal
resolains In regard to the raising 4 the money by prelaraeoe
shame. The cereal to be thus created Las follows :—Dal-
enernock breath, 37,0001 ; Fort Carlisle breach, 10,0001.
firrngtoe, Biggar, and Broughton branch, 7,6001.; sad
Wilsoutown breach, 72,5001.—taa1, 77,0001. The &w-
-isdoms were essonded by Mr. Towers, mad carried nasal-
zoonely. A vote of thanks to the chairman terminated the
proceedings.
DRIB= AND ARBROATH RAILWAY.—The half-
yearly meads( of the shareholders of this company was held
en Wegmegep in their office, Dundee—Mr. George Bough,
one of the dirsetare, la the chair. The report for the half-
year, which has already appeared in our columns, was held
as read. The chairman drew attention to the gratifying
feet that the directors were able to recommend a dividend of
24 per met. ex the half-yew, or 5 ter cam. per seam, upon
all the shares of the exopany, and to may eremite of
1,1(01. to the reserved Mad ; end this notwith-
kaolin • considerable Increase in the working
&pram from the mmot to carry the goods
true of the Folinktsgb, Perth, end Dyads, Mae over
a red& of their railway. Although the local India was
aM In en ausataketory state, there was an Mersa& of 6131.
In Mementos for the half-year, as compared with the cur-
avoiding period of the previous yesr ; and for the seven
weeks shwa the half yearly balance there was ea Moreau of
2161. As the trade of Arbroath ern 'strayed he hoe 00
doubt that the load traMo would rapidly iseresse, and that
the line would prove very rerotuserative. He emeladed by
moving that • dividend at the rate of 24 per cant., free of
income tax, be paid on all the skates of the company es and
alter the 3rd January next. Mr. Alexander lima seconded
the motion. After some enavermition the remind= as pro-
posed was unanimously
_adopted.

BATY:RDA Y E YINING.

The funds to-day were firm, with an occasional
improvement of about 1-16 per cent. The final
quotations were the same as those of yesterday. The
influence of the holiday suers was felt in the
eurtailment of business. It was noticed as a favour-
able feature that the closing hours were marked by
a further improvement in British railway stocks,
which left off with a very firm appearance.
. .

The demand for money to-day was only moderate.
At the Bank very little hominess wee done.

At Vienna yesterday there was a further decline
of # per cent. in Austrian stooks, but at Amsterdam
these securities were somewhat firmer.

Console, which closed yesterday at 951, " seller',"
OX div., for Jan. 10, opened and closed to-day at the
same qaotation. The intermediate variation con-
sisted of a temporary improvement to 961, " buyers."
The official business report is as follows :—Three per
Cent. Cousols, for account (10th Jan.), 95/, 3 ex
div.; Three per Coats., Reduced, 961,1; New Three
per Cents., ;965, 1; Indian Four per Cent. De-
bentures, 1868, 981; the New Indian Five per
Cent. Loan, for account, 1041, 1041 ex div.
The New Indian Five per Cent. Loan was marked
1041, but left off the same as yesterday, at 104/ to
1, ex div., for the account.
Exchequer Bills remain quoted 28s. to 31s. prem.
Few testimonies took place in foreign stock'.
Turkish were dull in the morning, but met with
more inquiry towards the close, and left off tame-
what dearer than yesterday, the Loan of 1854 at
76$ to 771, and that of 1868 at 631 to 645. Mexican
Bonds were supported at 221 to 1. Sales are recorded
as follows :—Portuguese Three per Cents., 1863, 46,
48$; Russian Five per Cents., 110; ditto Three per
Conte., 1859, 665; bpasish New Deferred Three per
Cants., for account, 334, 331 ; Turkish Six per

per Cents., for account, 281.
The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign
stocks will commence on Wednesday next (" ova-
tinuation day"), and terminate on Friday.
It may be useful to repeat that Monday will be
kept as a close holiday on the Stock Exchange, and
generally throughout the City.
The Board of Trade returns for the month of
November were issued this day:, and show a decided
increase in the export trade. The total shipments of
British and Irish produce and manufactures in
October were 449,0761., or 4 per cent. more than in
October, 1868. Those for November, 1869, were
881,5651., or 9 per cent. more than in November,
1868. Competed with November, 1867, the increase
on the month le no less than 2,672,1861. The
total exports for the eleven mouths of the present
year are 12 per cent. more than in 1868, and 4 per
cent more than in 1857. The activity is chiefly in
cottons and linens. The increased movement under
the former head, however, is now diffined over a
number of markets, instead of being confined prin-
cipally, as hitherto, to British India. The chief
figures will be found in another column.
There were no operations in gold at the Bank to-
, day. The specie by the West India steamer Parana
• will be delivered on Monday; the 38,0001. in gold
will be despatched to the Continent.
The imports of the precious metals this week
i have been only moderate. Our list includes :
. 134,6671. by the Africa and 43,0001. by the Vigo,
both from New York ; 160,0001. by the Parana, from
the West Indies; and 3,6301. by the Sultan, from
Lisbon.

Thus arrivals represent a total of about 330,0001.
The whole goes sway.
