CAMBRIAN.

Yesterday a special meeting of this company was held at
Bridge-street, Westminster—Captain J. W. Johns in the
chair.

The C HA1nm.4.1•7 explained that the first business was to

carry out the powers of their Act, so far as it related to th e
number of directors. He therefore moved that the number
of directors be reduced to six, which number had already
been elected at the half-yearly meeting. This was carried
unanimously.

The CHAIRMAN then proposed that the powers of the
Oswestry and Newton Railway Act, 1864, be put into ope-
ration for the purpose of creating new preference shares or
stock of the company, to which no voting powers were at-
tached, and it was adopted. A resolution relating to the
powers of the Oswestry, Ellesmere, and Whitchurch Rail-
way Act, 1864, was adopted ; and it was resolved that the
shares of the Newtown and Machynlleth be consolidated
into stock.

The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the
chairman.
