EASTERN UNION RAILWAY.

On the motion for the third reading of this bill,
Sir G. PECHELL moved that it be read a third
time this day three months, as he viewed the bill as
nothing more nor less than a measure of confiscation.
The bankers, merchants, and brokers, viewed it in the
same light, and if the bill was passed, it would shake
the confidence of the public in Parliamentary guarantees.

Mr. WYSE seconded the amendment.
Mr. CARD \YELL said there could only be two
grounds for supporting this bill, namely—either the bill
was to satisfy the claims of prior claimants to the pre-
ference shareholders, or it was assented to by the prefe-
rential shareholders, whose interest was reduced by this
bill. Now neither of those grounds'applied to the case,
and he thought the house would be acting unwisely if
they passed this bill. (Hear.)
Mr. CORRY, chairman of the committee to whom
the bill had been referred, supported the third reading.
Mr. HUME said it would be dangerous to the prin-
ciple of public, credit to pass this bill, and upon that
ground he should vote against the third reading.
Mr. CAYLEY supported the bill, and insisted that,
out of justice to the creditors of the company, the house
ought to pass it, since they only consented to forego
their legal rights upon the understanding that the pre-
ferential shareholders were to be placed upon the same
footing as themselves.
Mr. AGLIONBY urged upon the house the neces-
sity of appointing a committee to enquire into the alle-
gations contained in the petition of Mr. Rigby Wason,
which had been presented on the subject of this bill. This
petition alleges that the directors of the said railroad
company, as promoters of the bill now before Parlia-
ment, although, as trustees for all classes of share-
holders, they are bound to act justly towards the Six
per Cent. Preference Shareholders, did improperly sup-
press part of a chain of evidence, for the purpose of in-
ducing the committee on the said bill to arrive at
an unjust decision, and to disturb an agreement
which the said directors clandestinely concealed from
the said committee entered into between the directors
and the 6 per cent. preference shareholders, by which,
in consideration of the latter assenting to the retention
of certain provisions in the said bill affecting their legal
rights, the directors agreed not to lower their preferen-
tial shares.

After a few words from Mr. GOOLD, the house divided,
when there appeared—

WEALD OF SUSSEX.

A public meeting of the inhabitants of the Weald f
Sussex was held at the Town-hall, Petworth, on Mon-
day, for the purpose of promoting a line of railway
through that part of the county. Mr. Schuster, deputy-
chairman of the London, Brighton, and South Coast
Railway, was present, with a deputation from that com-
pany.
The Hon. E. C. CURZON took the chair, and expressed
his approval of the proposed line. He believed that
there was but one opinion, that it was a most desirable
scheme, and he hoped that they would all exert them-
selves in endeavouring to carry it out.
Mr. ALBERLY, in proposing the first resolution, said,
that the great reason for urging the line was, that it
would accommodate so many towns. He did not
know of any opposition to the plan, and he did
not believe that there could be one to give better ac-
commodation. He had made a calculation as to the
produce, which would give an interest of 4 per cent. on
199,0001. from the general traffic, independent of goods.
The population was on the decrease to the east of
Petworth, which could not be accounted for, and he
thought a line which would accommodate between 60
and 70 places would, at any rate, give a fair trial to see
what could be done to get it up again. He then moved,
"That in providing the necessary railway accommoda-
tion for the towns of Petworth and Midhurst, the valley
of the Bother, and the adjacent villages, it is desirable
to secure the best route to the railway terminus at, and
the river Thames below, London-bridge, and facility of
intercourse between Brighton and the southern and
eastern parts of the county of Sussex and the county of
Kent." _ _ _

Mr. ROY seconded the resolution, and the Chairman
declared it carried.

Mr. MARTIN then submitted a resolution, to the effect
"That the proposed Weald of Sussex ailway was
adapted to secure all the advantages of such a route, and
was therefore entitled to the support of the landowners
and inhabitants of the towns and districts represented
at the meeting."
Mr. B. CEALLEN seconded the proposition, which was
unanimously adopted, as also a motion urging the neces-
sary measures for abtaining an act of Parliament for the
construction of a railway.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to
the deputation from the Brighton Company, and to the
chairman of the meeting.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—(YESTERDAY.)
FACTORIES BILL.
On the motion of Mr. COBBETT that the second
reading of this bill be postponed for a week.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE expressed a hope that the bill
would be at once withdrawn, as it was impossible it
could be proceeded with further this session.
Mr. COBBETT said he would agree to the discharge
of the order, as he found there was no open day for the
consideration of the bill ; but he begged to be under-
stood as only postponing it till next session, not aban-
doning altogether.
The order of the day was then discharged.
GOVERNMENT OF INDIA BILL.
The house then went into committee upon this bill,
the remaining clauses were agreed to, and the report
was ordered to be brought up at the evening sitting to-
morrow.

HACKNEY CARRIAGES DUTIES BILL.
On the motion for the second reading of this bill,
Col. SIBTHORPE said be had been informed of
several instances in which persons coming by railways
had suffered very great inconvenience in consequence of
the absence of cabs, but he trusted the Government
would not give way, because he believed the blame rested
with proprietors, who required a larger sum every day
from the drivers than they were able to pay.
The bill was then read a second time.
The other orders of the day having been disposed of,
the house adjourned at a few minutes to six o'clock.

NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE.

The half-yearly report of the directors of this com-
pany states, that the arrangement with the London and
North-Western Company having been carried out ac-
cording to the recommendation of the arbitrators, they
are enabled to declare the stipulated dividend of ss. 3d.
per share, being at the rate of 3 per cent, per annum for
the first year. The dividends secured will be increased to
31 per cent. in 1854, and 31 per cent. in 1855 and all
future years. The directors state that the very large in-
crease hi the local traffic of the line, averaging upwards
of 1,0001. per week, is a sufficient guarantee of the
prosperity of the undertaking, and, if not promising an
immediate security equal to a 31 per cent. prefer-
ence stock of the London and North-Western Com-
pany, at all events demonstrates its safety and value
as an investment. The amicable relations subsisting
between the two companies have, under the advice of
the joint committees appointed for the purpose, led to
arrangements of traffic operating much to their mutual
advantage, as well as to the increased convenience of
the public • and further trains, for both passengers and
goods, will be passed over the North Staffordshire Rail-
way so soon as the details can be completed. The capi-
tal account shows, that 5,011,6981. had been raised to
the 30th of June last, including 1,170,0001. for the canal
and 3,841,6981. for the railway. The loan account
shows, that 1,015,3261. had been borrowed on the rail-
way, of which 213,6501. was at 5 per cent., 223,1261.
at 41 per cent., 128,0001. at 41, 199,0501. at 4, 15,5001.
at 31, 142,5001. at 34, and 93,5001. at 3 per cent. The
construction account shows, that 3,866,6381. had been
expended on the railway, leaving a balance against the
company of 19,851/. The revenue account for the half-
year ending the 30th of June states, that 98,7281. was
received on the railway, and 63,3181. on the canal ; and
that 45,059. was expended for working the railway,
and 25,4121. for working the canal; making the aggre-
gate receipts 162,0461., and the expenses 70,471/. ; leav-
ing a balance of 91,5151., which, added to 1,2801., the
rent of the Ashbourne branch, makes a total of 92,8551.
for interest on loans and dividends.

THE BUILDERS' BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION

(THIS DAY.)

The annual general meeting of the friends and sub-
scribers to this charitable institution, established in
1847, for giving relief and granting pensions to decayed
members of the various branches of the building trade
and their widows, was held this day at the London
Tavern, for the purpose of receiving the report, and
upon other business.

Mr. A. G. HARRIS, the secretary, read the report,
which congratulated the subscribers upon the increasing
prosperity of the institution, and the corresponding
benefits the directors had been enabled to confer by add-
ing to the number of their pensioners. The committee
having expressed their cordial thanks to their president,
S. Morton Peto, Esq., M.P., for presiding at their an-
nual dinner, which produced so gratifying a result, an-
nounced that it is their intention to have another elec-
tion on 18th Aug., when five pensioners will be elected
from a list of twelve candidates, making the total num-
ber then receiving the bounty of the institution fifteen
males and nine females. The subscriptions and dona-
tions received during the past year amount to 1,404/.
ss. 6d. ; and there has been added to the funded stock
since the last report 8001. Three per Cent. Consols,
7001. stock to the relief fund, and 1001. to the
building fund, making tne total amount 3,6501.,
divided as folbws 2,650/. stock to the relief,
and 1001. stock to the building fund. Great
energy has been displayed by the Brighton committee,
and the hon. secretary, Mr. G. Maynan, has forwarded
to the treasurer, Mr. George Bird, the sum of 1141. Os.,
with a prospect of adding considerably to the amount.
The directors hive also much pleasure in announcing
that, under the able superintendence of Mr. Joseph
Bird, the hon. secretary, the annual ball produced the
large sum of 1201. 16s. 6d. After stating that S. Mor-
ton Peto, Esq., had consented to act as president for
the ensuing year, the report concluded by calling upon
the friends of the institution, and the builders generally,
to lend their aid in furthering the benevolent aims of
the directors, more especially as but five pensioners
would be able to be elected, from a list of 12 candidates,

TURKEY AND RUSSIA.

By a telegraphic dispatch from Marseilles, we
learn the arrival of the Caradoc from Constanti-
nople, which she left on the 20th, bringing intelli-
gence said to be of the most pacific description.
The Porte had signed the arrangement proposed by
Engllnd and France, with the consent of Austria
and Prussia.

Continued conferences take place between the
Ambassadors of the allies, from which we have the
assurance of a peaceful solution. The fanaticism
of the Turkish population is still kept up, but con-
fined to partial disturbances without importance.
The Constitutionnel publishes a letter from Jassy
of the 15th which gives an account of the entry of
the Russians into the principalities, and says :

" The Russian troops on arriving on the banks of the
Pruth, and before leaving their own country by the
bridges prepared for them, threw themselves on their
knees, and in a short prayer invoked the protection
of God."
