Betting— 7 to 4 on Tambour Major, 9 to 2 agst Amazon,
11 to 2 agst Irish Lass. Amazon getting the best of the
start maintained the lead for half a mile, when the favourite
took up the running, but on passing the stand Molly
Asthoro rushed to the front, but soon gave way to Irish
Lass, making play until within a mile of home, when
Tambour Major, followed by Amazon, quitted the others,
and the former taking the lead from the brook, won in a
canter by twenty lengths. The Hobbie Noble gelding
was next, a long way in the rear of Amazon, but having
only been once round Molly Asthore was placed third, and
Irish Lass was fourth. The winner was sold to Mr. Yates
for 80 guineas.

worth notice during the present week in any article of
trade. At this day's market there was a fair supply of
wheat, and to effect sales a decline of Gd. to is. per qr. had
to be submitted to. Barley firmly held for quite as much
money. More English oats offering at former prices. Beans
and peas only found buyers in limited quantities.

GREAT WESTERN.

At the Slough Junction of this line, some exten-
sive works have been commenced, principally with
the view of altering the existing arrangements for
the passage of the up and down traffic, which at this
spot cross each other in a very peculiar manner.
The platforms of both the up and down stations are
on the south side of the junction. About a year ago
this circumstance partly brought about a collision
which entailed a considerable loss upon the company.
After this experience of what might happen again
at any moment, the directors wisely determined to
lay out a sum of £15,000 in remodelling the junc-
tion and stations. These works are making great
progress under the supervision of the company's
engineer. The alterations will consist of two entirely
new stations, built of white brick and Bath stone.
Instead of both of them being on the same side of the
line, the up will be on the north and the down sta-
tion on the south side of the railway, a communica-
tion between the two being provided for passengers
by means of a foot bridge over the line. Thus up
trains stopping at Slough on the way to Paddington
upon reaching a certain point west of the junction
will pass along a loop siding to the north station ;
the down trains along a similar loop to the south or
down station, obviating the crossing of the rails in
the present dangerous fashion, while the through
trains will pass along the centre of the roadway,
leaving the loop sidings free for the stopping trains.
Each new station will be about 275 ft. in length.
Simultaneously with the improvement of Slough
junction great alterations will be carried out at the
Reading station at a cost of £90,000, while the di-
rectors are about to erect their own telegraphic
wires over a portion of the line.

LONDON, FRIDAY, DEC. 29, 1865.

-~--

Lord WILTON has done himself great credit by
coming forward to expose the fallacious course
pursued by the Government, and to denounce their
unworthy conduct. It is time, indeed, that the
other side should be heard in this affair, for we have
had enough, and more than enough, of the diatribes
of Exeter Hall. In the letter which the noble lord
has written on the subject, we find the case put
before us in an impressive manner, and so em-
phatically discussed, that no one can fail to see the
great injustice that has been done, and they
blameable manner in which the Premier has acted.
How true is the passage which declares that it
suits a " faction" to " make assumptions,
and then demand action upon them."
This is precisely what has taken place,
and yet so ingenious have been the contrivances,
and so positive the statements made by these agi-
tators, that many really moderate persons have
been mystified, and begin to think that something
very wrong has been done by the authorities in
Jamaica. For the benefit of such people who are
content to take the most important news at second-
hand, this communication of Lord WILTON'S is very
appropriate, and we cannot too strongly recommend
it to their attention. here they will realise at a
glance the unfairness with which a zealous and
valuable servant has been treated, and they
may judge if this is the policy which they
wish their public men to adopt. " That the
Prime Minister, in his cool and guarded
moments, should have lent himself to the ravings of
a faction seems scarcely credible," is remarked in
allusion to Lord BussELL's mean pandering to the
views of the alarmist clique.

Strict impartiality would certainly have induced
a man in his responsible position to have waited
until all the evidence was before him ; but how
contrary to this has been the course pursued by the
Premier. "As it is," observes the able expositor of
recent events, " Governor EYEIt; has been given up
as a victim—for suspicion is virtually condemnation
order that the Ministry may gain sup-
port from this faction' during the corning,

SOUTH EASTERN.

A meeting, convened by the directors of this
company, was held at the Law Association Rooms,
Liverpool, yesterday, for the purpose of ascertain-
ing the views of the Liverpool shareholders in re-
lation to the policy of the Board ; Mr. E. Watkin,
M.P., deputy chairman, presided. Several direc-
tors and a large number of shareholders were pro-
Sent.

The CHAurmAN adverted to the serious opposition
which the Board had met with at the hands of
Messrs. Bell, Hamilton, and Adams, in very strong
language. He had seen with the greatest pain the
false and scandalous statements
which had been
published in the papers and by circular with regard
to the South-Eastern property, and he wished there
was a law which could get hold of selfish men, who
bound themselves together, in order to diminish the
price of the stock. lie then entered at some length
upon the policy of the company, with a view to show
that it was one of self-protection. They were all
anxious to be atpeace with neighbouring companies,
but they felt bound to take the course they had
done, in proposing such extensive new schemes in
self-defence.

Mr. ROBERTS having condemned the policy of the

company,

Mr, ADAMS, of Lewisham, said he appeared on
Mr. Hamilton's behalf.

The CHAIRMAN put it to the meeting whether
Mr. Adams should be allowed to address the meet-
ing, as this was a meeting of Liverpool shareholders.
The meeting decided that Mr. Adams should be
heard.

Mr. ADAMS then replied to the chairman at great
length, contending that the policy of the South-
Eastern directors in effecting the Chatham agree-
ment was a most disastrous one for the interests of
the company ; and that the schemes now before
Parliament were really schemes which the directors
had no intention to carry out, simply intending
them to intimidate the Brighton Company, and
thereby effect a compromise. If they did not suc-
ceed in coming to terms with the Brighton Com-
pany and had to carry out these schemes, the capital

ciently rapid, would produce a musical note, and
the unusual sound of a stretched string is occasioned
by the regularity of its vibrations. The number of
vibrations, or the pitch of the note, varies with the
force that stretches the string—the greater the
force the more rapid the vibrations and the
sharper the note. By increasing the force four
times the vibrations are doubled, and they are also
increased by diminishing the length of the string in
the same manner as the vibrations of a pendulum
are increased by shortening it. Violin players thus
raise and lower the pitch of their instruments by
moving their fingers along the strings. Professor
Tyndall illustrated the production of musical
notes by successive regular sounds in a variety of
experiments, the sound produced by bringing a
card to bear against a toothed wheel when rotated
being, perhaps, the most instructive one. When
the wheel was rotating slowly, successive taps were
heard, which as the speed was quickened became
converted into a low musical note that increased in
shrillness as the rotation became more rapid. Every
note is produced by a given number of vibrations,
and by the sound of a note the number of vibrations
that produce it can be ascertained with great accu-
racy. This was illustrated with an apparatus which
recorded the number of rotations in a minute of a
wheel that produced a musical sound by the rapidity
of its revolution ; and when the note thus produced
corresponded with that of a tuning-fork the number
of revolutions were estimated, and were found to
agree with the previously ascertained vibrations of
the fork. One of the most interesting experiments
was an ocular illustration of the different vibrations
of various tuning-forks. Four of them were placed
in a row, and when put in vibration a piece of
smoked glass was made to fall down in front of
them in such a manner that the smoked surface
could be scraped off by points on the tuning-forks.
The lines thus traced on the glass were then mag-
nified by the electric lamp on a screen, and pre-
sented zig-zags of different angles, those made by
the tuning-fork of the highest pitch being much
more numerous and shorter than those traced by
the forks with the graver notes.

Great Indian Railway,

-~--

MEETING THIS DAY.

The eighteenth half-yearly general meeting of
this company was held to-day, at the London
Tavern, the chairman of the company (R. W.
Crawford, Esq., M.P.) presiding. •
The report, which appeared in The Sun of the
27th instant, was taken as read.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report and statement of accounts, said that as usual
they were very f ull an d rrecise, but he thought it would
be desirable if he referred briefly to those objects in
which all the shareholders were deeply interested.
Having•adverted in high praise to the exertions of
the engineers and other officers of the company en-
gaged in the construction of the bridge over the
Jumna at Allahabad, he said that the completion
of that important work would fully establish the
railway communication between Calcutta and Delhi,
the immense value of which it was impossible to
over-estimate. It was to be regretted that the direc-
tors had not been abb to carry out the arrange-
ments which they prorosed with the Great Eastern
of India Company, but it was not owing to any
defect on their part. :le was in a position to state,
notwithstanding the danger of prophesying, that that
undertaking must eventually prove most productive
to the shareholders. The contract of Messrs.
Brassey, Wythes, and Perry, which had been ac-
cepted, was an advantageous one for the com-
pany, for it fell within the estimate of their
own engineer. In pursuance of that con-
tract, the construction of the chord line
was proceeding satisfactorily. As regarded the
bridging of the Hooghley;:the establishing of a
metropolitan terminus at Calcutta, and the forming
of junctions with the Eastern of Bengal and the
Calcutta and South-Eastern Railways, the board
had very carefully considered the whole subject.
Their recommendation, 'therefore, to the share-
holders to undertake the works upon the terms of
the existing contracts as to land, and the
acceptance of the, Secretary of State for
India, as guarantee of 5 per cent., was
the result of their mature judgment. It would be

sorted to the. forcing system in obtaining new
policies. They had been content to let their busi-
ness come of its own accord. (Hear, hear.) The
business of the Gresham was purely an European
one—they had no risks in America or the colonies,
and were it necessary every policyholder could be
seenwithintwo or three days. (Hear; hear.) Ta;king
that fact into consideration, he thought that their
present condition was everything the meeting could
desire, and certainly more than they. had a right to
anticipate. (Hear, hear.) The directors intended
to look out for MortgageS, especially as they would
have £lO,OOO a month for this description of invest-
ment, and he anticipated the best results would fol-
low from such an employment of their capital. The
Gresham was the largest company, as was shown
by its active vitality, and as a necessary consequence
it must be. accompanied by the .largest amount of
profit. (Hear, hear.) .
The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution to the
Meeting, and it was carried unanimously.
The retiring directors, William Tabor, Esq.,
George Lowe, Esq., and Joseph Williams, Esq.,
were re-elected; as also were Messrs. G. H. Lad-
bury, William Webb Venn, and William White-
lock, the auditors. _ _ _

Thanks having been awarded to the directors for
their exertions during the past year, a similar com..
plimeut was paid to the actuary and secretary.
Mr. CURTIS, in acknowledging the compliment,
said he felt deeply the kind manner in which his
services had been referred to. 'His greatest desire
would be to endeavour, if it was possible, to add to
the great and increasing prosperity of the flourish-
ing society with which it was his pride to be con-
nected. (Hear, hear.)
The proceedings then terminated.

took up the running, but on passing the stand Molly
Asthoro rushed to the front, but soon gave way to Irish
Lass, making play until within a mile of home, when
Tambour Major, followed by Amazon, quitted the others,
and the former taking the lead from the brook, won in a
canter by twenty lengths. The Hobble Noble gelding
was next, a long way in the rear of Amazon, but having
only been once round Molly Asthoro was placed third, and

The holidays have prevented any business being done
worth notice during the present week in any article of
trade. At this day's market there was a fair supply of
wheat, and to effect sales a decline of 6d. to Is. per qr. had
to be submitted to. Barley firmly held for quite as much
money. More English oats offering at former prices. Beans
and peas only found buyers in limited quantities.
Currencies :—English wheat, white, 45s to 509 ; red, 39s
to 48s per 36 stone. Malting barley, 30s to 35s ; grinding,

Rheumatic and Nervous Pains.—The chilly mornings and
evenings provoke these tortures in constitutions susceptible
of such maladies. Nothing affords so much relief as Hol-
loway's ointment well rubbed upon the skin after repeated
fomentations. Thousands of testimonials bear witness to
the wonderful comfort obtained from this safe and simple
treatment, which all can adopt. Holloway's ointment,
assisted by a judicious use of his pills, is especially service-
able in assuaging the sufferings from cramps and other
muscular pains, whether they be acute, chronic, external,
or internal. It is earnestly recommended that every suf-
ferer from these pains should give Holloway's remedies a
few days' trig ,which will fully convince the invalid that a
cure will be the reward of continued perseverance.

GREAT WESTERN.

At the Slough Junction of this line, some exten-
sive works have been commenced, principally with
the view of altering the existing arrangements for
the passage of the up and down traffic, which at this
spot cross each other in a very peculiar manner.
The platforms of both the up and down stations are
on the south side of the junction. About a year ago
this circumstance partly brought about a collision
which entailed a considerable loss upon the company.
After this experience of what might happen again
at any moment, the directors wisely determined to
lay out a sum of £15,000 in remodelling the junc-
tion and stations. These works are making great
progress under the supervision of the company's
engineer. The alterations will consist of two entirely
new stations, built of white brick and Bath stone.
Instead of both of them being on the same side of the
line, the up will be on the north and the down sta-
tion on the south side of the railway, a communica-
tion between the two being provided for passengers
by means of a foot bridge over the line. Thus up
trains stopping at Slough on the way to Paddington
upon reaching a certain point west of the junction
will pass along a loop siding to the north station ;
the down tralbs along a similar loop to the south or
down station, obviating the crossing of the rails in
the present dangerous fashion, while the through
trains will pass along the centre of the roadway,
leaving the loop sidings free for the stopping trains.
Each new station will be about 275 ft. in length.
Simultaneously with the improvement of Slough
junction great alterations will be carried out at the
Reading station at a cost of £90,000, while the di-
rectors are about to erect their own telegraphic
wires over a portion of the line.
