CIARRY'S CONFESSION.
1,..) By the Author of " Ilfgh Church," "Owen," " Afattie."

The adjourned special meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the Waterloo Station ; Captain Mangles in the
chair.

" This novel is equal to any former ones by the same
author. The story is cleverly told, and is very original. It
can scantly fail to be read with thoughtful interest"—
Athenazum.

Mr. Clarke, the secretary, having read the notice of ad-
journment,
The CHAIRMAN stated that Bills Nos. 2,3, 4,7, and 11 on
the list of the 18th of March were, disposed of at the last
meeting, and there remained Nos. 1,5, and 9, as well as
No. lof a new notice for the 15tli of April. The first bill
he had to submit was No. 1, which they called the Omnibus

Hurst and Blackett, 13, Great Marlborough-street

Mr. Bircham, the solicitor, read the heads of the (Addi-
tional Powers) Bill authorising the company to make new
works, and for the amalgamation with their undertaking
those of divers railway companies, power to make traffic and
other arrangements with the London, Chatham, and Dover
Railway Company, to regulate the capital of the company
to raise a further sum of £517,500 on shares, and to borrow
one-third of that amount. It also authorised the amalga-
mation of the Exeter and Exmouth Railway and the Salis-
bury and Yeovil Railway with the London and South-
Western Company. -

A formal resolution approving the bill was seconded by
Mr. Castleman and carried unanimously.

The next bill was No. 5. It authorised the London and
South-Western Company to make a railway from Bideford
to Great Torrington, and to 'raise £B,OOO on shares, and to
borrow £26,600 for that purpose.
The CHAIRMAN explained that the proposed line would
form a junction with the Okehampton extension line from
Bude to Torrington at the latter place, and moved a formal
resolution approving the bill, which was seconded by Mr.
Dutton, M.P., and carried unanimously.
The next bill was No. 9, for authorising the Okehampton
Railway Company to make a railway from Bude to Great
Torrington. The South-Western Company subscribed no
capital towards the undertaking, they were only autho-
rized to make working arrangements, and it was stated that
this line would add to the traffic of the main line from .the
extreme west.

Captain JOHNSTON seconded the motion for the approval
of the bill, and it was adopted.
The Sectetary then read a notice convening a special
meeting on that day to consider the Fareham and Netley,
the Sidmouth and Budleigh Salterton, and the Sidmouth
Railway Bills.
The CHAmMAw said that in this case no capital was re-
quired from the South-Western Company. The powers, so
far as they are concerned, only enabled the company to
make working arrangements with those companies. He then
moved a formal resolution approving a bill to incorporate
a company for making the Faversham and Netley Railway,
and for other purposes.

Mr. Hu'rums seconded the motion and it was carried.

The meeting was then adjourned to the 18th inst., for the
consideration of other bills not at present sufficiently ad-
vanced to submit for the approval of the proprietors.
