At the half-yearly ordinary meeting of the Otto-
man Railway Company, held yesterday at the London
Tavern, Mr. A. Devanz in the chair, the report of
the directors, after some explanations, was adopted.
A motion was then brought forward by Mr. T. G.
Taylor, "that Mr. Wm. Dent be requested im-
mediately to resign his seat at the board of this
company." Several pp:Trista' present expressed a
strong opinion that, in consequence of Mr. Dent's
connexion with the Joint Stock Discount Company,
it will be for the interests of the company if Mr.
Dent ceases to be one of the directors. The
chairman avoided putting the resolution from the
chair, and suggested that the mover should call
for a show of hands. Mr. Taylor contended that
the resolution should be formally submitted, ant.
the result declared by the shairman, but the soli-
citor having decided that the chairman could not
put such a resolution, because notice bad not been
given of it in the summons, Mr. Taylor put it, de-
eland it carried, and in the name of all
those present requested the chairman to take
charge of the resolution, and notify the
fact of its having been passed to Mr. Dent. It
was understood that the vacancy thus created will
be filled up at the extraordinary meeting to be held
on the 13th April. The company's engineer re-
potted on various matters, and the meeting sepa-
rated in the usual manner.
A meeting of the Ottoman Company (Limited)
was hell yesterday, but the proceedings were merely
pro forma, the meeting being adjourned to Satur-
day, the 14th April, by which time the directors ex-
pect to be in receipt of propositions in reference to
the future interests of the company of a satisfactory
character.
The meeting of the Credit Foncier of Mauritius
took place yesterday. The accounts for the past year
exhibit a net profit of 10,7771., and a dividend was
declared for that period of 74. per Dent, of which 2}
per cent. has already been paid. The balance to be
carried forward is 4841.
The fourth instalment of 201. per cent. is due on
the ordinary stock (dividend deferred) of the Great
Northern Railway Company on the 14th of April.
We are requested to state that the business of the
Bank of Turkey (Limited) will be carried on at
their new premises, Clement's-house, Clement's-
lane, on and after Saturday, the 31st inst., and
that the Oriental Financial Corporation (Limited)

The return of the Bank of England for the week
ending Wednesday, March 28, compared with that
for the previous week, shows the following changes :
Circulation isms £28,502.750 Derives, £51,303
Circulation active 21,621.730 lemmas 986,130
Püblic departs
Other deposits 13,332,000 lamer* 853,521
Government securities in

Other securities in banking
department 21,879,302 Increase 2,487,000
Coin and bullion in both
departments
Seven day sad other bills
The Rest 3.883,203 lacrosse 15,425
Notes in DONSTVO
Total reserve (notes k coin )
in banking department
This return will be regarded with some disap-
pointment. The private securities, owing to the
active demand for money, have increased very
largely, and, as the Bank have enlarged their stock
of government securities by one million (represent-
ing probably a temporary advance to government on
Exchequer Bills paid off to the public), the result,
notwithstanding the large addition to the deposits,
is a diminution of 1,079,2561. in the reserve. Not-
withstanding the continued influx of gold from
abroad, the coin and bullion have likewise declined,
consequent upon withdrawals of sovereigns for the
provinces.
