After some observation from Mr. G. SMITH, Mr.
SCOTT, Mr. TAYLOR, and Mr. MACLAURIN, who
all agreed that the directors had done their best in
the matter, the report was unanimously adopted;
and the dividends recommended therein were de-
clared, the retiring directors and auditor were re-
elected, and the proceedings concluded with a vote
of thanks to the chairman and directors for their
attention to the affairs of the company.

BRAY'S TRACTION ENGINE.
The ordinary meeting of the proprietors was held
yesterday at the offices, Pall-mall-east, Mr. fl. D.
Davies in the chair. _ _

Mr. LOUTTIT, the Secretary, read the report,
which stated that the progress of the engine was
highly satisfactory. It had removed for Messrs. J.
Penn and Son immense loads of machinery with
ease. The directors had now the fullest confidence
in the ultimate success of their system of steam
traction. The Government had also ordered one of
these engines for work in Woolwich dockyard. The
amount of the present capital, with all debts and
liabilities, was less than £30,000.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, congratulated the proprietors that they
could now carry heavy loads with rapidity and pre-
cision, and that by means of the traction engine on
common roads they could carry goods at the rate of
4d. per ton which by other methods would cost
from Bd. to 9d. An advantage in favour of the
company's engines was that they were noiseless,
and there was no escape of steam.
The report on the motion of Captain YOUNG was
carried unanimously, and on the motion of Captain
WELLS, seconded by Major CAMPBELL, the direc-
tors were authorised to take the necessary steps for
increasing the capital of the company.
Messrs. Simeon and Osborne having been re-
elected directors, and Messrs. Grey and Davenport
auditors, the meeting separated.
