Kr. AJIOSZAre they still liable supposing the Ibis is
my carried from Dahlia to Wicklow and not to Wtiford,
originally intended ?
The CHAIRMAN replied in the affirmative.
Me. P. RICHARDS—If it was stated by the chairman of
the S.uth Wales Company that they were not liable, that
statement was not true ?

The SECRETARY said he should not feel justifie,i in
saying so.
After some further conversation, the effect of which was
to prove that much angry feeling existed in the mi,de of
some of the shareholders tower is tlic dircetort,

Major COURT iaquirvi whether it was intended t carry
the Lisa from DuWin to Wexford ?

The SECRETARY said that under the pretest act of
parliament they were bound to carry the line to Ws x'ord,
but they purposed to limit its extent to Wicklow. 'Chid,
however, was the subject of a apt. ial meeting under Lard
Whernelifle's ‘ct, when the So ath Wales Company would
have the rower to express their approbation or dissent, ac-
cording to the ume privilege which all other shareholders
possessed.
Mr. NASH said that Hebei South Wales Company were
to be looked upon in the light of ordinary shareholders, how
was it that Mr. Russell, the Chairman of that company, had
announced that although they bad subscribed for 11,000
shares, they had only paid the first call atal not the second ?
It the South Wales Company Lad IN fused their assent to the
proposition for lim.ting the line to Wicklow, it was clear they
were not liable. If they were to be treated as ball tide
shareholders, how was it that the 11,000 shares were n ered
in the names of three ini'iv:dual director . and that when a
bill was Bled against them en Crmmy, they sr, re signed in
the name of the general body cf directors ?
Major COURT said this matter might he brought to soma
conclusion by the Chairman's assenting to furnish them with
the terms of any arrangement they may have entered into
with the South Wales Company, and also with the resole-
time passed upon the subject by the meeting of that
company.
Mr. AMOS said—There shall Fe no concealment on the
part of the directoes. Whore there was mystery there was
mischief. (Hear, hear.)
The CHAIRMAN said that at the previous meeting it
was open to the South Wales Coolpoity either to support
i them in the proposition for shortening the line, or to oppose
them.
Mr. WADDY then addressed the meeting, sad continded
that it was quite clear that the Smith Wales Company did
not intend to pay one farthing towar Is the expenses of the
line. (Heer, hear.)
VOICICK —Fur whoss henetit is the line to be
made? Why, for the ben( lit et the secretary!
Mr. RICHARDS said it was most important they should
know whether the South Wales Company were still liable or
not. Aa they had tchen 11,000 shares out of the company,

This was as action for a call, to which the defendant
pleaded that at the tine of the =Wag the contract with the
plaintiffs, by virtue of which the call wee made, he was an
infant. The point in the case was whether the entreat in
question was to be referred back to the transfer of the shins
to the defendant (which took plea on the lot of March) or
to the date of the all, which wee in May, the defendant
having become of age on the 7th of April.
The Court was in this as of opinion that the contract
referred to in the pleading must be taken to be that arising
oat of the purchase and transfer of the shares. The making
a all was so contract between the company and the share-
holders, and the obligation on the latter to pay the moose
required was one sing from the antra* entered into at

PARIS, IdoNDAT 5.30 P.M
The anniversary of the revolution, yesterday, passed
off with perfect calm. The weather being beautifully
tine, there was vast crowds of promenaders on the
Boulevards, in the public gardens, the Champs
Elynee, and other places of resort ; in the Champs
Elynes, in particular, the gathering of pedestrians
and the display of equipages were larger and more
brilliant than had been seen for the last two years.
During the day there was a crowd of workmen,
nearly all attired in their Sunday clothes, around the
Column on the Place de la Bastille, and the railing of
the Column was decked with crown of immortelles.

A religions ceremony was performed in all the
churches of Paris, on the occasion of the anniversary
of the 24th of February, and a Te Deum was sung.
The Archbishop of Paris officiated at Notre Dame.
M. Dubois de fltaligny, Minister Plenipotentiary
from France to the court of Holland, has arrived in
Paris from Amsterdam.

M. Tricoupi, Envoy Eztraordinaty and Minister
Plenipotentiary of the King of Greece, has presented
his credentials to the President of the Republic.
The Bourse fell to-day co the intelligence that an
energetic note had been seat, or was on the point of
being sent to the powers, on the subject of the affairs
of Switzerland. This note was said to be in substance
'that France considered the occupation of Switzerland
se inopportune. Further, in reply to the question as
to what would be the coaduct of the French executive
is case Austria and Prussia should occupy Switzer-
land without other co-operations, that France would
do what was necessary to areservethe honour is well
as the interts's of the country intact.
In support of this note it was stated that the
government had decided to-day to form a camp of
40,000 or 60,000 men on the Swiss frontier, and to
call oat a fourth battalion to be added to each regi-
ment. Such is the intelligence that made the Bourse
Lill, and which has been common:rated tome in the
same terms from divers channels.

Letters from Schaffhausen of the 18th inst. state
that all egress from Switzerland into Baden had been
forbidden by the authorities of the latter state.
Everything at the Chamber was quiet up to peat-
hour, the Chamber proceeding with the second read-
ing of the Education Bill.
Previonily MM. Schcelcher and Perrinon had
been admitted members cf the Assembly for Guadeloupe.
Telegraphic despatches, received by the govern-
ment from several departments, state that the anni-
versary of the revolution yesterday weed off with
the greatest calm.
"Yesterday," says the Courier Francais, "from
seven in the morning, the greatest activity reigned
in the different barracks. The colonels passed their
regiments in review in the yards. The authorities
did not think it necessary to order the troops to keep
to barracks. No symptom of agitation was apparent
in any part, and our brave soldiers were, as on other
days, able to walk about in the streets."

LA PLATA.

The Napoleon, Captain Itabardy, bas arrived in
Havre with intelligeoca from Buenos Ayres np to
the 26th June. At that time it was rumoured that
the French diplomatic agents had at list succeeded in
coming to an unceretanding with the Argentine go-
rerun, r.t. I, was net, howtv:r, stated whether con-
majors had been muue by tee former or the latter ;
nor was it known if the convention said to have been'
agreed on could be definitely c ,relutled by the French
agents, as it would ri quire to be susmittcd to the ra-
tification of the French gortrnment.

CAPE OF 6001) MOPE.—There are further
advice. from this colony to the 16th June. They an-
nounce the die.covery of large deposits of guano on
Damen Inland, hr a Mr. E. Cneappiai, but which,
being on public lands, is claimed by the government.
An importar.t improvement with the harbour of Table
11,y was under consideration, by the construction of a
lntekwater, extending from the shore near the
Chsvenna-battery, embracing that portion of the an;
chorsge where the deepest water is to bo found, and
by a curve towards the cx'nmity, protecting from
the action of the tide ar.d the surf a large portion of
the arcs of the bay. The want of a hsrbour of refuge
at Table Bey has long been telt, tud the ptet.ent pro-
ject is ore of considerablo importance to the colony
and the shipping interest.
The number of vessels which entered Table Bay in
1849 was 600, of 156,000 tons.

GUILDHALL.

.
THIMALI4 B IIOOINO AND ROBIERT.— Robert Gibbing and
Lewis Isaacs were charged with defending a Mr. John Old.
field of 401. at the swindling game of thimble-rig.
The prosecutor stated he was an artist, residing at No.
100, Ebury-strtet, Pimlico, and teat on the 27th of June
last he had occasion to go into the City. After transacting
his business thsra, he went on board one of the boats at
London-bridge, with the intention of proceeding as far as
Waterloo-bridge. A few minutes after he got oa beard,
two well dressed persons addressed him, and, having entered
into eonvenation, drew from him his destination, end also
that he was going about London seeking pleasure, having
been on the continent for the last twenty years. On
finding that he was bent on pleasure, they persuaded
hint that he could not do better than to go to
Battersea-fields; it was a very nice place, they said,
with plenty of amusement. On the snivel of
the boat at Battersea prosecutor got out, and goon
after he saw the same two men who had accosted him in
the beat playing at a thimble-rig table ; one of them lost 61.
in the courses of play, and the other *bout the same amount.
The latter then staked a silver watch, and lost it. They
then offered to assist prosecutor, if he would play, by tel
him which thimble the pea was under, and be being
dined by their representations of kind offers," staked
five sovereigns successively, and lost them all. Having no
more change but 61. and 101. Bank of England notes, prose-
cutor was induced to wake a 61. note, and he lost that and
two 101. notes in quick succession. He then put his hand
into his pocket and drew out the bank notes, when he was
immediately pressed very don on all sides, and he felt a tug
at the notes. In a minute he was left standing alone, every-
one having disappeared in different directions moss the
fields. On looking to the notes, he found, in addition to his
lore, at the thimble-rig, that a 101. note had been stolen
from his hand. lie saw one of the prisoners at a distance
beckoning to the others just before they ran away. He met
the prisoners in the street subsequently, and gave them into
custody.
Alderman Kelly sent the case to the Wandsworth l'olios
Court, as the occurrence took place in that district.

CLERKENWELL.

CHAIM! AGAINST A POLICIMAN. —Hugh Myddlelon, a ;
police constable, No. 467, N division, was charged, by Mr.
Patrick Linage'', barrister-at law, of the Middle T. mple.
residing et 18, Hemmingford-terrace, Islington, with being •
drunk and neglecting his duty while acting in his office as a
police constable.
Mr. Linagan, having been sworn, said that, on Wednei-
night week last, about ten o'clock, he entered the shop of
Mr. Bryan, butcher. of City-terrace, Islington, for the pur-
pose of making a trifling purchase, when he tendered in
payment half 'sovereign, received the change, and left the
shop. He was almost instantly followed by Mr. Bryan, who
intimated that the half sovereign was a counterfeit. Wit-
ness told him it was not at all likely that he would intro.
tionally offer bad money. lie was a gentleman, and named his
residence to him. He however still pursued him in a
most annoying manner, thereby causing a crowd of ptyalin'
to awn mble. Witness looked about anxiously for a police
man, but not seeing one he sought refuge in a stationer's
shop, where he remained until he saw the defendant on the
opposite side of the street, when he called and heekoned
him. but he evidently affected not to see or hear him. He
at length came ever, and receiving the alleged bed half
sovereign from Mr. Bryan, he (defendant) bit it and said
"Itis a d—d bad one," and he then asked Mr. Bryan "Will
you give him in charge." Bryan said " Yes." Defendant
thee seined hold of witness's arm and dra. ged him out of
the shop. W,tnees reque.ted him to let him accompany him
gently and not drag him ac he was doing, but he still per-
sisted and pulled hint thraigh the mud, and continued
taunting him all the wty on the road to the station.
house in a mod insulting manner with having passed a
had half sovereign. A great crowd assembled and followed
them to the station-house, where the half-sovereign proved
to he a genuine one, and he was liberated. He swore that
the defendant was drunk at the time. Witneee felt much
aggrieved at such conduct, and felt bound, for his own satis-
faction snd for the sake of the public, to institute the present
proceedings.
Mr. Combo cmsidered that he had no jurisdiction over
the case unless neglect or violation of duly in his execution
of his office as a constable could be proved against the defen.
dart. It became a matter for the commissioners to take up
and decide upon. An officer was bound to take a charge if
IP was given to him. As to the charge ,4 being drunk, he
did not view that as being neglect or violation of duty.
Mr. Mallets, the chief clerk, suggested that it was recog-
nised as Ming a violation of duty to be drunk while on duty.
Inspector Thatcher, N, occurred in the opinion.
After some further conversation, Mr Linagan said hie de-
termination was to proceed with the charges generally, and
e•veral witnesses were th. n examined, who confirmed his
evidence, the whole of them swaaring positively to the in-
toxication of the defendant, and st a late hour Mr. Combs
postponed the case to next Tuesday, when witnesses fur the
defence will be heard.

MEETING AT COLCHESTER.

On Monday a public meeting w•as held at Col-
chester, fur promoting the objects of the Financial and Par-
liamentary Reform Association. Many of the leading mem-
bers of the lioeral party were present, with a large concourse
of the inhabitants. Deep interest was evidently felt in tlua
object of the meeting, the working classes especially giving
unmistakeable signs of their iii.satisfaction wi•h the present
wasteful expenditure of the public money, and the imp, elect
Vats of zhe representation of the country in the Rouse of
Commons.

currence in them, and urging upon the meeting the propriety
of uttitin,r for the purpose of carrying out great principles
without needless:7 discussing salmi. details.
Several gentlemen having sp, ken, resolutions in accord-
ance with the objects of the ineetin4 were then adopted, and

Nothing could be more eff (qua: in dulUipatingfor
ever any small amount of plitularity which the pro-
tectionists might have laid claim to in Ireland, than
their factious and inveterate opposition to the Irish
Franchise BiL Tneir pretensions to any Irish sym-
pathy sic utterly blasted. They have arrayed them-
selves in ho.tlity to the Irish people on precisely the
most vital of their interests at this moment; and that
fact is felt. If Sir William Somerville's Franchise
Bill be lost, Ireland will be left without a constituency,
but she will, on the other hand, once for all, have the
eatisfacion of being convinced that the landlord
party can never, under auy change of circumstances,
be other than her enemies.
