CHARING-CROSS BRIDGE
COMPANY.—(THIS DAY.)
The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors cf this corn-
pony was this day held at the offices of the company, No. 9,
Vllliers-street, Strand, for the purpose of receiving the
directors' report of the proceedings of the company, for the
half-year ending 31st of January last.
The chair was taken at one o'clock by Mr. William Hawes,
the deputy chairman of the company.
The notice convening the meeting having been read,
The Ge.' %lamas said that the present meeting was one of a
special character, consisting of nearly all bridge proprietors,
and not, as formerly, a rnixel meeting consisting of bridge
and market proprietors. Tile absence of the latter, no doubt,
arose from the circumstance of legal proceedings having
been lately commenced against this company, in order to
compel them to fulfil in the manner they thought proper the
contract between the two companies. In the commence-
ment of these legal proceedings the Market Committee were
unsuccessful, but in the continuation of those proceedings
had been more successful, the Lord Chancellor having post-
poned his decision in the case for one week. The question
in dispute between the two parties had been considerably
narrowed by the directors of the Bridge Company under-
taking to admit, under certainly difficult and complicated
arrangements, the steam-boat passengers to land upon the float,
and so on to the bridge, without the removal of the line of
barges which connect that float to the wharf. It was clear
that in doing so the company were exposed to great evasion
of the tolls by persons passing along the barge., on to the float
up the steps, and so on to the bridge. If any evasion, or
loss should arise to the company, it was the intention of the
directors to say to the market company, " a loss has arisen in
consequence of your practice, and we call upon you to pre-
vent it." The directors had always offered a friendly adjust-
ment, but they had said to them, that the proposed six feet
division of the bridge would be utterly destructive of their
property. If, however, the directors could not come to an
arrangement as proposed by the Lord Chancellor, it would be
their duty to have the case argued before the Lord Chancellor
and show that the public had no right to be admitted, and
claiming as a right that, if the passengers were admitted free
to the steam-boats, some mode of identification should be in-
stituted, by which the toll collectors of the bridge should be
enabled to know who were really steam-boat passengers, and
entitled to pass free. In consequence of the difficulties which
had arisen in borrowing money for the completion and
finishing the bridge, asum of between three and four thousand
pounds being required for that purpose, it was considered neces-
sary to meet that additional expense by charges upon the
receipts of the company. For this reason the directors did
not feel justified in proposing a larger dividend than 2
per cent. upon the halt-year ending the 31st of January,
which would leave a balance in the hands of the directors of
966!. A portion of this sum would be required for the pay-
ment of one half-year's interest due to the Exchequer Loan
Commissioners on account of money borrowed; the available
amount in the hands of the directors would then be reduced
to about 4001. With reference to future dividends, he should
be wrong if he did not say that when the Richmond,: the
South-Western, and the Brighton Railway termini were
completed, the traffic on the bridge, and consequently
the dividend to the proprietors, would be materially
increased. The directors also proposed to pay a dividend
of .4 per cent. per annum upon the mcney advanced for
the purpose of making the road direct from the Belvidere-
road to the proposed station in the York road. It would
be necessary to have the shareholders of the company com-
pletely registered, and every precaution would be taken to
ensure a prompt and equitable division of the money to be
paid by Mr. Jackson for the purchase of the bridge. He
was happy to inform the shareholders that the project for
building a new bridge at Charing-cross had been aban-
doned, and there was every prospect that when the new
bridge was built, it would he upon or near to the site of
the present Westminster-bridge.
The CHAIRMAN then called upon the clerk to read the
report of the directors, which was as follows :
" Your directors have to report the amount of tolls re-
ceived in the six months, from the 31st July, 1846, to the
31st January, 1847, to be 3,150/. ils. 3d., and the expenses
1,324/. 2s. lid., leaving a balance of 2,659!., which they re-
commend to be applied to the payment of a dividend for the
past half-year, at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum on the
capital stock of the company, and 4 per cent. on the sums
paid on the eighth shares, leaving a balance of 996/. Bs. 6d.

appears most exorbitant, and notice has been given of an
appeal against similar charges in futire.
" Your directors are proceeding in Parliament with the
Bill to enable them to convey the bridge to Messrs. Jackson
and others.
" It is with considerable pleasure your directors refer to
the abandonment of the proposed scheme for the removal of
Westminster-bridge, and the substitution of another bridge
close to the Charing-cross-bridge. The report of the com-
mittee specially appointed to watch the interests of the com-
pany in reference thereto will be read by the secretary.
"The law proceedings commenced unsuccessfully by the
Market Company before the Vice-Chancellor have been re-
newed by appeal to the Lord Chancellor, who yesterday
deferred the action for a week, to afford an opportunity for a
friendly adjustment.
"The prospect of the early completion of the South-
Western Railway station, close to the southern terminus of
the bridge, which cannot fail very much to augment the
tolls, must be a source of great satisfaction to the proprietors.
" Your directors have given the contractor notice, through
your engineer, that they require the immediate completion
of his contract, and they believe he will proceed therewith
so soon as the weather will permit : this will enable your di-
rectors, by the next meeting, to close the capital account of
the company.
The following abstract of the half-yearly revenue account,
from July 31, 1846, to Jan. 31, 1847, was also read by the
Clerk :

On the motion that the report be received,
Captain KELLY called the attention of the meeting to the
„seat access which would be made to the traffic upon the
bridge when the numerous railways, now in course of con-
struction, or seeking to obtain the sanction of Government,
were completed. The terminus of which were proposed to
be on the Surrey side of the river.
Mr. ENGusit proposed that terms should be offered to the
Market Company, for the purpose of coming to some atrange-
meut. He proposed that the Market Company should hare
the free use of the south and north pier, and that all steam-
boat passengers should be allowed to go either to Lambeth
or to Hungerford-market by paying the toll.
The CHAIe:MAN said that the Market Company would not
accept those terms, they had been offered and refused.
Captain KELLY wished to know whether the company
would have the power at the time of a regatta, or upon
Sunday afternoon, of compelling the steam-boat passengers
to leave the bridge, because if they had not that power the
bridge would always be filled with them ?
The CHAIRMAN—The company do cot possess any power
of qutt nature.

to the bridge they ought to have it.
The CIIAIRMAN—The question of right was the real ques-
tion in dispute. The only point was were the market com-
pany to find the means of identifying the passengers, or were
the bridge company to incur the responsibility of refusing to
allow all persons who might be pleased to say they were
steam•boat passengers to go on to the bridge without paying
the toll.

DESTRUCTIVE FlRM—Last night, about eleven I
o'clock, the premises in the occupation of Mr. Morgan, green-
grocer, No. 138, High-street, Shadwell, were discovered to
be on fire, An instant alarm was raised, and after consider-
able trouble, the inmates, who were asleep, were aroused. By
that period the lower portion of the premises was wrapped in
fire, and the flames were ascending the staircase with such
fury, that none of the inmates were able to escape by the re-
gular means. In the space of a few minutes Mr. Morgan,
two females, and five children, appeared at the first-tloor
front, and with the assistance of police-constable Carr, No.
166 K, and a waterman ;named Griffiths, the whole of the
parties were taken from the window. The engines of the
parish, London Brigade, and West of England Company,
quickly attended, and plenty of water being procured
from the mains of the East London works, the engines
were called into requisition, and the firemen carried the
hose up the stafacase, and by that meana they were enabled
to pour a coLtinuous stream upon the flames. Whilst, how-
ever, they were so engaged, a large mass of flames entered
one of the moms in which the firemen were, and Mackay,
the head 'engineer of Wellelose-square station, was knocked
down by its force, and had it not been for the timely aid

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.
By the unfortunate vessel, Brechin Castle, shipwrecked off
the Welsh coast, we have recived Cape of Good hope papers
of the 2341 December. The news which they contaiu is very
satisfactory. The Katirs were laying down their arms more
freely, and bringing in the stolen cattle : while the Governor
exhibited decided energy in dealing with the affairs of the
frontier, so as to justify the impression that there will he
henceforth more security for life and property than has ex-
isted for many years past. The mother of the celebrated
chief Sandilla had visited the Governor to solicit pardon for
her son ; but it was very porperly remarked to her that his
Excellency did not make war upon women, and that the
chief must conic himself. Accordingly, Sandilla appeared,
and brought with him a number of his most influential fol-
lower:, cattle and arms. Umhalla, the chief of the Slambie
tribes, had made his submission, after having been expressly
informed that he was at perfect liberty to do as he pleased,
and that the Colonial Governmeht was quite prepared to
carry on the contest with him; consequently, the surrender
must be unconditional, as the Governor had determined no
longer to recognise the authority of chiefs west of the river
Kei. The chief admitted himself fairly worsted, and preferred
the British rule to the protection of the neighbouring Kafir
ruler, Kreli.
The following are a few extracts from the papers:—
A letter from the frontier, dated 15th December, states—
" Affairs are as they were. Mapassa has given up about
forty guns and some horses, and would do more, bat his people
have tr,en dispensed by the recent attacks made on them,
and many have gone amongst those of the so-called friendly
chief Umtikaka. Dr. Cotton, pri:,cipal medical officer of the
colony, accompanied by Dr:Campbell, 73d Regiment, who
arrived a few days ago from Monte Video, may be daily ex-
pected on the frontier. A gentleman, lately arrived from the
north-eastern boundary, represents a portion of Moshesh's
territory as being in an unsettled state, in consequence of
disagreements between the emigrants and natives. These
accounts are not clear or full. But it seems that the same
causes are in operation in Moshesh's country, that produced
the disorders in Griqualand, and compelled the interference
of the Government. Numbers of the emigrants are said to
have been unjustly expelled from their habitations, after
having been encouraged to expend much time and labour in
improvements. The Government will probably be obliged
before long to step in between the disputants.'
Letters have been received from Colonel Somerset's divi-
sion to the 20th of December, on which day the march was
commenced towards the Kei, to settle matters with Pato
and Krell. We understand that "if the general's measures
are well carried out, all must end right." Colonel Johnston
and Captain Hogg's men are said to be on the march to meet
Colonel Somerset at the Kei. Kobus Congo (Pato's brother),
sent in a message as if coming from Pato for peace, which
was forwarded to the Governor; but before an answer was
received, it was discovered that the messengers had come
from Kobus, and not from Pato; they were therefore in-
stantly sent back with a message from the diplomatic agent,
Captain Maclean, who will accompany the expedition, that
no more messages would be received except such as were
sent specially by Pato himself.
Letters from head-quarters are to the 21st. They state
that the Commander-in• Chief was about to join Colonel
Somerset's division.
Intelligence has been received that Sandilla has sub-
mitted, and being enrolled as a British subject, he
has brought in with him 100 head of cattle. The Kafir
chief Kama, it is stated, will occupy the country that
formerly belonged to Tolle. Some Kafir spoors were
lately seen going into the colony by Jager Drift, where
no party Is now stationed. A span of oxen were lately
missed in that neighbourhood, but were all found with
the exception of one, the remains of which only were dis-
covered, and which is supposed to have been slaughtered by
the Kafirs.
News has been received that Umbels, with several hundred
followers, and a like number of cattle, has surrendered himself
to Colonel Somerset, and has been registered as a British
subject.
We understand that the plan of a town at Block Drift
has been formed, and that sonic of the streets have
already been laid out by the engineers. From this post
to the sea it is supposed his Excellency will establish
a line of forts communicating with each other, and sup-
ported by communities of natives established in convenient
localities.
We learn from Colonel Somerset's camp, Buffalo River,
under date of 14th inst., that " a patrol of 80 Cape corps
started last night, in command of Captain Napier, but where
they have gone to we cannot ascertain. The colonel is also
going some time to-day with some Cape corps and Captain
Lange's mounted men. I suppose this move is preparatory
to a general decampment. Captain Napier has taken 400
head of cattle."
A letter from the same place, dated the 16th inst, says—
" There has been another patrol out, and they have killed
five Kafirs, taken 250 head of cattle, and two prisoners. The
latter say Kreli and Rato have had a hard fight; that the
former won't let the latter into his country, and has taken
many of his cattle, which he intends delivering up to the
governor."
The news from Cape Town is unimportant. Propositions
were before the Legislative Council for building a harbour of
refuge, and making a revision in the scale of tonnage dues.
No alteration had taken place in the rate of exchange upon
London.

KING'S COLLEGE HOSPlTAL.—Yesterday the
general quarterly meeting of the governors and subscribers
to this hospital was held in the board. room of that institu-
tion. The'Rev. Mr. Ellis, the rector of St. Clement's, pre-
sided. The secretary read the report, which stated that the
number of in and out patients who had received medical and
surgical relief was about the same as during the last few
years. The expenditure for the past year exceeded the re-
ceipts by 6461. 15s. The former being 4,3471. lls.' the latter
3,701 16s. This deficiency had been made up by the pro-
ceeds of an entertainment at Willis's Rooms and by the sale
of stock.
POLAND AND THE REPUBLIC OF CRACOW.—There
were, yesterday, issued the following documents, which
have just been presented to the House of Commons by her
Majesty's command, in pursuance of their address of the Bth
inst. :—The General Treaty of Congress, signed at Vienna,
June 9, 1815 ; with the three annexes thereto, relating to
the Kingdom of Poland, and the Republic of Cracow ; the
correspondence between Viscount Castlereagh (late Marquis
of Londonderry) and the Emperor Alexander of Russia, re-
specting the Kingdom of Poland, Vienna, October and No-
vember, 1818; Conventions between Great Britain and the
Netherlands and Russia, of 1814 and 1815, relative to the
Russian Dutch Loan, &c. These documents have now been
reprinted, in pursuance of the address of the House of Com-
mons to her Majesty, dated the Sth of February last.
THE ROBBERY OF JEWELS AT BRIGHTON.—On
Friday evening the residence of Alderman Wilson, No. 3,
Eastern-terrace, Brighton, was plundered of nearly 300/.
worth of jewels. At twenty minutes before eight o'clock in
the morning three men had been on the roof of the house,
mending the pipes which had burst in the late thaw, and
they lighted a tire in one of the bedrooms for the purpose of
melting the lead which it was necessary to use. As soon as
Mrs. Wilson heard that labourers were in the house, :he
ordered her maid to go into her bedroom and remain there
while the workmen remained at their task. Once in the
course of the morning one of the men entered the room, and
asked for a candle, and the maid desired him to go down
stairs for one. She remained on the spot till one o'clock,
when the men left the house, stating that they should not re-
turn, and that they were going to do a similar job at No. 6,
the Duke of St. Albans. At half-past seven o'clock every-
thing appeared to be safe, but at twenty minutes to eight the
lady 's
-maid, upon ascending the staircase, heard the door of the
wardrobe creak, and soon discovered that the shelf on which
the jewel boxes stood was quite empty. When the family
were informed of what had taken place, the Alderman di-
rected the servants to watch the backs and fronts of the ad-
joining houses, to prevent the escape of the thieves, and ran
up stairs upon hearing a cry that the robbers were above.
He found that two of the windows, one of which had been
just heard shut down, were unfastened, and while he was
descending the staircase out walked two well-dressed men,
from the empty house, No. 2, next door to his residence, one
of whom had a case under his arm, and both of whom were
allowed to pass without hindrance or question by the stupid
crowd who gathered together to render assistance. Tiles.,
persons, who no doubt were the thieves, pulled the door after
them with the greatest confidence, and talked to each other
in a loud tone as they passed along. The Brighton police
have been actively engaged in endeavouring to trace the
thieves, and Daniel• Forrester was sent for by Alderman Wil-
son, who has offered a reward of 50/. for the requisite infor-
matior..
FIRE oN THE RIVER.—On Tuesday night a fire
broke out on board a large vessel, moored off the Coal-
whippers' Register. office, King James's-stairs, Lower Shad-
well, in which the working tools used in the delivery of the
coal ships are deposited. Thera was some combustible
matter in the vessel. An alarm was raised, and a great
number of coal-whippors and others went on board and ex-
tinguished the flames, but not before considerable damage
was done.
HEALTH OF TOWNS AssoctAnoN.—Yesterday the
annual meeting of this Association was held in the rooms cif
the Statistical Society, 12, St. James's-square, for the pur-
pose of receiving the general and financial report of the com-
mittee, and on other business. The attendance was very
numerous. Among those present were Lord Ashley' M.P.,
W. A. Mackinnon, Esq., M.P., Sir Edward Pearson, J. Pfl-
cher, Esq., &c. Lord Ashley occupied the chair.

to-night, and we have no doubt that her great popularity
will cast an additional charm over this delightful opera.
WOOLWICIL—EXPERIMENTS IN THE MARSHES.--
Colonel Rudyerd, director of the Royal Military Repository;
Lieutenant-Colonel Hardinge, K.H., director of the Labo-
ratory Department; and Major Pester, fire-master in the
Laboratory, assembled in the Woolwich marshes on Monday
afternoon, to witness experiments with concussion fuzes, the
invention of Mr. Tyre, of the proof department in the Royal
Arsenal. There were four shells fired from 32-pounder guns,
and three shells from an 8-inch gun. Three of the shells from
the 32-pounder guns burst on striking, and of
abne did not burs
rd t.
The first shell fired from the 8-inch gun bursout 40 yas
from the mouth of the gun ; the second fell short, and on
touching the ground ricocheted to the top of •the mound, and
buried itself in the earth, without bursting; the third grazed
the ground before reaching its destination, and ricocheted,
striking the top of the target, and burst at the same time.
Experiments were also carried on with concussion fuzes on
Friday and Saturday last, invented by Mr. Tyre and Mr.
Blanch, and others are about to take place, as it is desirable
to have a concussion fuze that can be depended upon, the
great object being to insure that none of the shells should
burst during their flight, or short of the object against which
they are directed.

THE MONIED MONARCH.—The Bank of France
has applied to the Bank of England for a loan. Need its
directors have travelled so far for assistance ? They seem
quite to have overlooked the hoards of the Tuileries. Surely
Louis Philippe could have spoken to a friend, who, on the
usual terms of course, could have cashed them a bill to any
amount.••-tundh
