COMPANY.

Several of our Sunday contemporaries publish the
following amount of this transaction :—lt episan that, two
days sines, it was observed by the accountant of the ems-
;any, who bad lately returned to the duties of his °film
after a severe Wiese, that the numbers es cartels dividend
entileatee sad Mom of the shares standing in the names
of the parties did not tally. Be immediately seat to Mr.
Rotten, the clerk in the transfer on e, through whose de-
pertness these shams would pane, and drew his attention
to the feet, inquiring how It Gould happen. Mr. Bobeon
replied, "Oh, that is very easily implaised; there have
been two tranaers of the slums, for some of them have sot
boss applied for, aid have Isis la the office for a yew
sad a ►alf, sad we did not think it neormary to eater tho
Ant name." "Bat there must be a mediated' of trans-
far somewhere," said the aesentateat. "Oh, yew," re.
spftded Mr./Lotman, with great eaoisem, "I have pt them
all lacked up st say house." Thosameataat reminded him
that these certificates should he in the ofiee, and stied
he would have a horse pet to at ease, and drive over
with Mr. Robson to his hoses at Kilburn, for the
purpose of fetching them. This was agreed to, and they
immediately started for Kilburn. On their arrival Mr.
Ratios showed the accountant, with whom he was on
terms of acquaintaseethip, into the parlour, sad ordered
luncheon, u they should step some time. He than
left the room for an instant and returned again. This
going out and re-entering recurred several times without
ocessioning suspicion on the part of the accountant, seta a
longer alines than before led to suspicion. On inquiry it
ems found that the bird had flown, and speedily a man I
arrived with a note from Robson, sating that he bad seat a
men and an ameent back to the Crystal Palace, as be him-
self was compelled by urgent business to go to London that

shares took place, and the board, at their meeting on Sitar-

Slaughter, the secretary of the railway department, at the
