Railway and Other Companies,

SEVENOAR S, MAIDSTONE, AND TUNBRIDGE.
A special meeting of this company was held yesterday at
the Victoria Station, Pimlico, Lord Sondes in the chair.
Mr HOLnOYD said the company required additional
capital, to the extent of about 100,000, for the purpose of
thoroughly completing the through double line to Seven-
oaks, for constructing a joint station near the junction with
the South-Eastern Railway, and also for paying their pro-
portion of the cost of other works. The sum of £75,000
had been previously raised, bearing a 6 per cent preference
interest; and the London, Chatham, and Dover Company,
in consideration of the Sevenoaks Company comlleting the
junction with the South-Eascern and doubling the line,
had agreed to guarantee 5 per cent on debenture and
preference stock to the amount of £t75,000. That was a
5 per cent guarantee only. It had therefore become necesA
sary to convert the 6 per cent preference into a 5 pet cent
preference.
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, resolutions were passed
authorising the conversion of the 6 per cent into a 5 per
cent preference stock, the creation of £lOO,OOO 5 per cent
preference stock, and the borrowing in respect thereof of
£33,000 on mortgage.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceed-
ings.

IN RE SMITH.

This bankrupt was a baker at Hackney, and this was a
meet ing for last examination and discharge.
Mr W. R. Buchanan did not oppose for the assignees,
but Mr Brougb, for several creditors, asked for a goods,
cash, and deficiency account, as the debts amounted to
£272 to unsecured creditors, and the whole of his property
had been made over to other creditors, but for valuable
consideration.
An adjournment was accordingly ordered.

DISCHARGING FIREWORKS IN THE STREETS.—
Edward Buckingham, a young man, was charged before Mr
fireworks in the street.
Police-constable, 82 E, proved seeiog the defendant last
night discharging a squib in Warren street, Fitzroy-square.
As , soon as the defendant saw him approaching he ran
a way.

Mr Tyrwhitt said discharging fireworks was a mos
dangerous practice, and the defendant was old enough to
know better.

The defendant was fined 58.

UNPROVOKED ATTA.CR. UPON STRANGERS.—CharIes
East, a powerful fellow, was brought before Mr Arnold
charged with three most unprovoked assaults upon different
persons.

William Aldridge, a respectable-looking young man, said
that he and a friend went last -night into the Prince of
wales' Tavern, Exeter. street, Chelsea, to get some refresh-
ment. Defendant, another man and a woman, were also in
the house, and one of them dropped a key on the floor.
Complainant seeing the key on the ground, and thinking
that he might have dropped it, felt in his pocket, and finding
his own safe, remarked aloud that it was singular the two
keys were so much alike, He had no sooner done so than
defendant or the other man seized him, and held a hand
over his eyes, and when he endeavoured to remove this he
was struck by the defendant violently and followeA with
great fury, when he endeavoured to escape. But for the
ill treated. Would have been most seriously
interference of others,

James Collins, an artisan perfect ly unconnected with
either party, said he was merely passing at the time, and
without any provocation was attacked and struck twice by
the defendant.
William Gocdyer said he Was with Aldridge, and con.
firmed his statement as to the beginning of the attack.
There was nothing whatever done to provoke the defendant,
and when he attacked Aldridge witness mEraly endeavoured

BRYNMAWR AND PONTPOOL.

It is proposed to construct a line of railway from Bryn-
mawr to a junction with the Monmouthshire and West
Midland Railway at Pontypool. The object of the promo-
ters is to connect the iron and other works between Bryn-
mawr and Pontypool with the London and Worth Western
and Great Western by a more direct route than exists at
present.

LEEDS, NORTH YORKSHIRE, AND DURHAM.
This, it appears, is to be the title of the new project for
forming a competing line to the North and to Scarborough
against the North-Eastern to a certain extent. The project
is about 100 miles in length, and the cost is estimated at
£1,00,000. The landowners on the route, it is stated, are
all in favour of the line, and Lord Faversham is willing
that they should take no less than 25 miles of his land. The
survey from the London and North Western, Hudders-
field branch, to West Hartlepool, is completed, and the
length from Helmsley to Pickering is the same, and the
remaining few miles to Scarborough will be done this week.
The towns on the route are all moving to petition in favour
of the scheme, and Borobridge is asking for a branch.

CATS FOR CENTRAL AMERICA._About a dczen
years since the newspapers chronicled as a fact (provocative
of especial wonder) the entsrpriso of a New York merchant
who had exported a c.:rg,o of 100 cats to New Grenada,
where, it would appear, the race had become extinct, owing
probably to the uninterruptedly disturbed state of that
wretched republic, In 185 J the tats were so plentiful and

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

On the arrival of the Lord Mayor at Westminster Hall,
bis lordship at once proceeded to the Court of Exchequer.
The civic party took a standing position in front of the
bench reserved for the Queen's counsel.

The RECORDER, in addressing the court, said he had the
honour to introduce to their lordships the Right Hon.
Warren Stormes Hale, who had been selected by his fellow
citizens of London to fill the cffice of Lord Mayor for the
ensuing year, and her:gracious Majesty ratified the choice
of the citizens. The learned gentleman then proceeded to
give a short history of the career of the new Lord Mayor,
stating that he had for many years carried on business
in the City of London, during which time he had wcn
the good opinion of his follow citizens. He had for a con-
siderable time been their representative in the Court of
Common Council, and on the death of the alderman of his
ward (Coleman-street) he was unanimously elected to fill
the vacant office. He hadj served the office of sheriff,
and at the termination cf his year of cffiee received a
vote from tho livery, and he felt assured that he would
not be found wanting at the post of honour to which he
had been elected, Tho learned gentleman having also
intimated that the late I,rd Mayor, who had so well
fulfilled his office during the past year, was in attendance,
concluded by presenting the new Lord May or in the usual
form to take the oath.

The LORD CHIEF BARON, in reply, said he had to con-
gratulate the Lord Mayor on having attained that honour
which the learned Recorder had expatiated on in his
address to the Court. Ho appeared there as the First
Magistrate of the greatest city in the empire, to claim cer-
tain rights which belonged to the peat city of which he
was the chief authority. He (the Lord Chief Baron) did
not look upon the present as an idle ceremony, as it
was in reality a proceeding to claim and to retain
those privileges which had existed from time immemorial.
He joiced to hear the account the learned Recorder had

SOMERSET AND DORSET.

The report states that the last section of the line, from
Temple Combe to Blandford, was opened for public traffic
on the 10th of September. On the 14th of September the
Blandford and Wimborne section was handed over to this
company by the London and Sonth-Western Company, and
the through service between Burnham and Poole com-
menced on that day. The amount of traffic which imme-
diately came on the line was satisfactory, as the earnings
per mile from the opening throughout exceeded those on the
Burnham and Temple Combe section for the corresponding
period of 1862, that section having then been opened nearly
12 months. The revenue account shows a balance of
£3,221, after providing for working expenses, as against
£2,610 for the corresponding half of 1862. The total num-
ber of passengers conveyed during the last half-year was
158.148 ; the total of goods, 37,443 tons ; and of cattle,
14,651 head. The working expenses amount to is. 6d. per
train mile. The capital account shows a total receipt of
£1,007,949, of which a balance of £16,424 was unexpended
at the 31st of December. The receipts on revenue account
for the half-year were £15,101, and the expenditure
£ll,BBO, leaving a balance of £3,221.

SHAKSPEREANA,

Profiting by the public criticism to which they have been
exposed, the Council of the Shakspere Committee, says the
Atlancczn, have adopted a self-denying ordinance. Look-
ing on all sides for an active and popular Executive, for
gentlemen who could carry into effect the public desires,
they have found them outside their own ranks; and, having
found them, they have carried in the General Committee a
vote which virtually transfers the leading and active powers
of the committee from their own into other hands. This act
was wise; and their sharpest critics must allow that it was
also unselish. Men who thought more of themselves
than of the cause in which they were engaged would,
perhaps, have hesitated to do it. Tho Council have been
sometimes blamed for alleged self-seeking in this matter;
when their faults of the past are tea:leathered in the future,
generous men will not forget how readily and gracefully
they have now fallen in with what appears to be the wish
of their lit erai y brethren.
THE GROWTH OF THE COM3IITTEE.—FerdiDaIId Era-
grath, Esq., Joseph L. Wyon, Esq., German Reed, Erg.,

tional Shakspero Committee.
Tun SHAKSFEILE -BADGE FOIL THE 23D OF AFRIL.—The
riband manufacturers of Coventry have just produced an
appropriate decoration to be worn on the days of the ap-
proaching Shalispere Festival. The badge consists of three
leaves. On one is the residence of the poet; on another,
the church of Stratford-oat-Avon; and on the third, a por-
trait of Shakspere (from the Chandos picture)—the three
devices being attached by a button, on which are engraved
the Shakspero arms and crest.

SHAKSPERE A LA. ItussE,—The second edition of a Rus-
sian translation of Shakspere by M. Ketcher has just been
published at Moscow. The first edition, it appears, is out
of print.

LAXSPERE IN ITALY,—The best tragio actor in Italy,
Tommaso Salvini, has been giving a series of performances

sian of our Shakspere's" Othello."

SAN PAULO (BRAZILIAN).

The directors state in their report that recently a question
had arisen between them and the contractors, but there is
every probability of an amicable arrangement of it. The
directors beg to intimate that they now intend to revert to
the usual system of making calls, and that the sum of £4
per share will be required early in April next. The rela-
tions between the company and the Imperial and local
authorities of Brazil are of the most friendly character. It
appears from the report that Mr. J. Brunlees, the engineer
in chief, that the station at Santos is nearly finished, and
that the first section of the line, 13 miles in length, is in a
forward state. The heavy works on the second section, 37
miles in length, are progressing satisfactorily; and on the
third section, 38 miles in length, the works are in an ad-
vanced state. The past season has been unusually favourable
an] the supply of labour abundant. The total expenditure
to the 31st of Dzeember last amounted to £1,467,492, leav-
ing a balance of £138,288.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

For the time of year, a full average supply of foreign
stock was on offer in to-day's market, but its general
quality was vary middling. Sales, consequently, progressed
slowly at about stationary prices.
From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts
fresh up were rather limited. The supply from Scotland
was good, from Ireland infezior. Generally speaking, the
beef trade was slow; nevertheless, Thursday's currency
was well supported. The top figure for beef was ss, but
only prime Scots and crosses realised 63 2d per Sibs. The
arrivals from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire
amounted to 1,800 Scots, shorthorns, and crosses ; from
other parts of England, 500 various breeds ; from Scotland,
310 Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, 100 oxen and
heifers.
The show of sheep was again very moderate, but the
quality of most breeds was good. Prime small Downs and
half-bred; m-..ved off steadily at Os, in some instances a
Os 2d per 81b3. Heavy sheep were a slow sale at late rates.
Clipped breeds were dull. Downs out of the wool changed
hands at 5s per Blbs.
Lambs were in fair request at from Os 8d to 7s per Sibs.
The supply of calves was very moderate, and the veal
trade ruled firm at very fall prices, via , fzoni ds 2d to 6a 2d

THAMES.

DEATH FROM DEMMENNESS.—Inspector Honey, of
the k division, called the attention of Mr. Paget, the magis-
trate, to the first drunken case of the list, and said he re-
gretted that the prisoner, who was the subject of that
charge, was dead. A poor basket woman was found drunk
in Bow, opposite the Church, at 8 o'clock on Saturday
evening, and was brought to the station house by a police-
constable. She appeared to be very ill, and he immediately
sent for the aid of Mr. Garman, a surgeon who was in the
station in a few minutes. The medical gentleman pro-
scribed for the woman, and she received every possible
attention until 2 o'clock on Sunday morning, when she ex-

pired.
Mr. Paget—This is a very serious matter. Has the poor
woman's death been caused by destitution ?
Inspector Honey—No, sir, she was not destitute. She
had £5 in money about her, of which £1 10s. was in gold.
There were 18 oranges in a basket, which were brought to
the station house with her.
Mr. Paget—What is the cause of death?
inspector Honey— I rather think it is apoplexy, your
worship.
Mr. Paget—What is the name of the woman ?
Inspector Honey--I don't know, your worship. She was
too ill to give her name or address. She is about 55 years
of age.
Mr. Paget marked the police sheet " reported dead," and
said information must be sent to the coroner.
Inspector Honey—That has been done.

HUDSON'S BAY TERRITORY. -- The American
papers state that permission has been asked for
their military authorities to pursue the Sioux Indians in the
Hudson Bay territory. In a noto to Lord Lyons, dated the
21st ult., Secretary Seward states that those Indians should
either be restrained from making hostile incursions into the
ebe
United States territory, or United States troops should
allowed to pursue, subdue, and disperse them. Areport
from General Popo to the War Department shows that the
English Government has no force in the Rod River
Jan region
to control these Indians. Lord Lyons, in a note of . 22,
sr.y. Le has referred the mattter to his Government, by
which it rill not fall, to be immediately taken into onside-

ration.
