MISSING DMDEND3.—The Ontario, Simeon, and
Harm Railway Company of Upper Canada have failed to
remit the halt-yearly dividend on their debentures, due the
let of January, venally paid through the Commercial Bank
of London. It seems that the secretary wrote from Toronto
to that eatabliahment in the early part of December, desiring
that the dividend might be advertised, and that no commu-
nication of any kindle since reached them. It transpired
at the beginning of lard year that the company had stamen-
bendy issued preferential bonds, en that altogether tkur
conduct is calculated to destroy nadidence.— Timer.
