A spr,,..ial meeting of the shareholders of this
c"---I%cy era. held this day, at 1 o'clock, at the London
Iktern, for the purpose of considering the report of the
r,r.inittee appointed by resolution passed at the meeting
ie:d on the 4th August.
Mr. B. Le C. Nixore who wu in the chair, referred to
tle Laauefaction and distrust which existed amongst the
iltraolders. It had been asserted by a committee who
examined the accounts that the alleged enormous
ti.fitt in the books of the company were no profits
cl. ai.d that whilst the directors were receiving
Heir Payments in rah the company generally were no
v-icing their dividends in what was called "stuff."
committee allege that the affairs of the company have
Pooaly mitconducted and misrepresented. Having
'-tied into many minute details for the pnxpoee of sap-
II tuig the report of the committee alluded to, and
fecal referred to the conduct of certain parting connected
v:tt the Credit Fonder, amid loud expressions of dis-
w...,faction from the shareholders, the chairman con-
, -'•ul by strongly advising them to adopt the report in
c.,-tos, an abstract of which appeared in the Ilzpress of
ti.:Afth ult.

Ifi:Tave strongly Isupported the 6th propmition in
femur of a thorough investigation of the-pael prof:ma-
i, 0, and present position of the company, and ooncluded
y moving for the appointment of a committee to carry
such investigation.
Mr. W.sutza seconded the resolution. _ _ _

11;: iewrow. whilst supporting the principle of the pro-
y.t.ition, reminded the meeting that it would be omelets to
eist it there, as it would be treated as illegal. He sug-
p.sted the propriety of proceeding_ by requisition calling
ire a general meeting to consider the objects est forth in
the propaitions of the committee.
The Cnumux raid what the meeting was asked to do
%at day was to adopt the policy of sec
~cstituted meeting, for the purpose of ming the
buds of the report of the committee, and of agreeing to
rtoch resolutions as would beet support the interests of the
crmpany.
/dr. Wu arsine defended Mr. Mowatt from the charges
triminuations thrown out against him, believing him to
Le nut only an honest, but also an able man. He moved
s counter resolution to the Whet that, so far as they had
litLerto observed, the conduct of Mr. Hewett and his
R'Adjutolll has been such as to elicit the satisfaction of
V". ~tripany. (Cries of "No, no," and some cheers.)
Ltn Itowersr, remarked that anything was better than
ticercospbere of doubt and suspicion that rested ou the
rtcbt Fonder, and it appeared to him that, in order to
clear away that doubt and 'Wicker the only
VA.Tet to take was to institute a thorough in
i;t6_Ths %delis of the company, such investigation to
“aried 0,4 by able and honourable men who were
