RECIFE AND sr. FRANCISCO RAILWAY.
(THIS DAY.)
- -

This day a special general meeting of shareholders
was held at the London Tavern ; Mr. BENSON in the
......7dchair •
for the purpose of confirming the following resolution,,
at the meeting of the company, held on the 30th Jan. a—^
"That the directors should pay as heretofore to the share-
holders (out of the capital or income of the company) in-
terest upon the amount of calls paid during the construction
of the line aster the rate of 7 per cent. per annum, such in-
terest to be calculated from the day of payment of the re-
spective calla.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the resolution, said that the
object of it was well known to the shareholders, as a circu-
lar, with a report of the last meeting, had been sent to each
one. It was only neoessary for him therefore to move that
it be confirmed.
Major-General Ta
passed unanimously.

THE DEAN OF CARLISLE ON REVIVALS.—In hia
sermon at the cathedral, on sorrow for sin, on Sunday after-
noon, the Dean of Carlisle warned his hearers against those
ebullition of fanaticism and enthusiasm which characterime
the so-called religious revivals of the present day. He con-
demned " revivals," as shallow and superficial, andexpressed
his regret that they had been the means of sending several
persons to the madhouse. He could not tell why they were
celled " reeivals ;' they were conversions, attended with
great excitement and terror. lie thought they should pray
that their emotions might be restrained within the bounds
of Christian sobriety. For these rapid conversions he saw
no models in the Scriptures ; for this passing at once from
the frantic terrors of hell and plunging at once into happi-
ness, peace, and joy, and going to convert others, he found
no precedents there, anises they were exceptional, and they
must not draw an ordinary practice from practices which
were very few and extraordinary. God forbid that he
should say a word to check wholesome real ; as he had
often said, he feared not at what pane they travelled so
that they kept to the rail of God's word, but if they left
that the conaequenoes were terrible and fatal—Curriberfaad
Parquet.
INCORPORATED SOCIETY OF LICENSED VICTUAL-
LERs.—At a special meeting of the committee of the
Incorporated Society of Licensed Victuallers, held yes-
terday, at the School House, Kennington-lace, Mr.
John Cathie, the Governor, in the chair, Mr. Robert
Jones, of the Boar's Head, Cennon-street, City, was
unanimously elected Governor of the Society for the
ensuing year. Of the two other trustees to whom, with
Mr. Jones, the election was restricted, Mr. Shepherd
haviug become ineligible in consequence of his retiring
from business, the choice of the committee lay between
Mr. Jones and Mr. Schooling. A ballot was taken, in pur-
ulence of the directions of the 10th section of the Rules,
Ordinances, and Bye-laws; but the proceeding was
purely of a formal nature, Mr. Schooling having de-
clined to serve. The election of Mr. Jones is all the
more gratifying from the fact of Mr. Shepherd's having
previously declared that, if he had not been disqualified by
his retirement, he should not have contested the election
with him. At the conclusion of the proceedings, Mr. Jones
was cordially congratulated upon the event by all his col-
leagues. Mr. Schooling foremost in the number, and several
of the lest officers who were present, including the oldest
pod trustee. Mr. Vousley, to all of whom he briefly ex-
pressed his thanks, and pledged himself to exert his utmost
energies, during his year of office, to promote the important
interest, which had that day been committed to his charge.

STRIKE OF MAI4ONA AT BATII.—.A. dispute has
arisen between the masters and the working masons at
Bath, which resulted in • large number of the latter re-
fusing to resume work on Monday morning last. It seems
that six months ago the workmen made a demand upon the
employers for an additional sum of 4d. per day, and to mese
work at 4 o'clock on Saturday afternoons instead of at 6. One
or two of the masters acquiesced in these terms ; some pro-
posed to give the extra pay, but not the time, and some
I suggested i o'clock instead of 4 ; but all wished the men to
wait until the Ist of March before the new arrangement
commenced, so as to give them six months' notice. To th
the men agreed, and last week a meeting of the trade vs
held, when it was unanimously resolved—" That this meet-
ing is determined to stand by the purport of the memorial
issued six months since to the master builders of this cite,
and the slightest deviation in any respect from it will be
met by a determined refusal." It was also agreed that •
deputation should wait upon all the master builders, and
in all cases of refuel' to accede to the term. the men should
be withdrawn from their employment on Monday, March 4.
The result was that some of the masters acquiesced, but
others refused the terms either wholly or in part, and •
Large number of men are consequeutly now out on strike.
SALE. OP RARE AND VALUABLE BOOKA RELATING
TO AVERICA.—A three.days' book sale of unusual interest
isommenees this morning, at the rooms of Messrs. Puttick
and Simpson, in Leiceeter-square. The books to be dis-
posed of consist of a large and valuable collection of works
wholly relating to the history and literature of America
and the Indies. These works were collected seeend
years since by Mr. Henry Stevens, literary agent in
this country for the New York Smithsonian Insti-
tution. They were collected mainly for the pur
pose of being used in the completion of Mr. Stevens's
elaborate work on American Bibliography. The collection
embraces all voyages and travels relating to America, with
almost every fragment that has appeared in print that touches
on its early history and literiture. As a collection of
works on a speciid department of natural and literary his-
tory it is perhaps unrivalled. and Maori. Puttick and
sinips"u base prepared and published a catalogue worthy of
the collection.
