WEST YORKSHIRE.

The report states that the expenditure on capital account
has been £285,096, The net 13%lance of revenue, after pay-
ment of interest on debentures, &c., is 110,422. A dividend
at the rate of £7 per cent. per annum will absorb £7,918,
which, with 4 per cent, upon the asset stock, £532, will
make £8,450, leaving a balance of £1,972, The reserve fund
now amounts to £8,765. The main line and Ossett branch
are reported by the engineer as in satisfactory condition,
and the works on the Batley and Methley branches are ex-
pected to be completed during the summer.

GREAT NORTHERN.
The report of the directors of this company states that,
up to the 31st of December, £12,729,323 have been ex-
pended on capital account, and £12,689,416 received, the
expenditure being £39,907 hi excess of the receipts. The
expenditure of capital during the half year was £305,630,
but the balance of the premium realised by the sale of
£115,000 irredeemable preference stock, has with other
small sums been piaced to the credit of this account, The
net amount of expenditure is therefore £299,335. The net
increase in the balance, as compared with the same half of
1862, is £6,084. The sum available will yield the follow-
ing dividends :—On the original stock at the rate of £8 lbs.
per cent. per annum ; giving for the half-year £1 7s. 6d.
to the original stock, £3 to the B stock, and £5 15s. to the
A stock, leaving a balance of £213. The dividend for the
year 1863 will therefore be £6 10s. per cent. on the original
stock, £6 per cent. on the B stock, and £7 per cent, on the
A stock.

LONDON AND BLACKWALL.
The report of the directors states that the total revenue
for the half-yeat ending the 31st December last, with the
balance of £669 from the previous account amounts to
£66,85L and the expenditure to £22,617, leaving a net
profit of £44,234; and, after payment of interest on deben-
lures, there is a balance of £35,750 available for dividend.
This balance enables the directors to provide for dividend
on the £250,055 41 preference stock, which will amount to
£5,626, and to recommend the payment of a dividend at
the rate of 4 per cent. per annum upon the ordinary stock,
leaving £943.
