DUNDEE AND PERTH.

A special meeting was held at Dundee on Wed-
nesday to approve the bill for amalgamation with
the Scottish Central. Sir P. M. Thriepland pre-
sided.

The CHAIRMAN stated that the committee of the
House of Commons had granted certain facility
clauses to the North British Company similar to
those they had first rejected. The directors be-
lieved this amalgamation would be of advaL tage to
the shareholders, and a great convenience to the
public.

The bill was unanimously approved, and thanks
were given to the directors for their efforts in pro-
moting it.
