HUNGERFORD MARKET COM-
PANY.
The half yearly general meeting of proprietors was
held yesterday at the company's offices, Villiers-street,
Strand; Martin'Stutely, Esq.,'in the chair. The directors'
report referred to the failure of the Charing-cross
Bridge Company to obtain powers from Parliament to
sell the bridge, and to the rescinding of the con-
tract for sale and purchase thereof, with Messrs.
Jackson, Walmsley, and others ; and congratu-
lated the proprietors on the very satisfactory
progress of the Market Company's affairs; the earnings
for the past year, notwithstanding the general depres-
sion of trade and other drawbacks, enabled the directors
to propose an increased dividend. The report was
cordially received by the proprietors, a dividend of
21. ss. per share was declared; and after a vote of that.k.
to the Chairman and directors the meeting adjourned.
