We have received the Paris papers of Monday.

Although these papers still continue to comment on
the Spanish marriage question, yet it is evident that,
in common with all other questions relating to merely
foreign policy, it has lost its interest for the present.
Public attention in France is at the present moment
solely occupied in considering domestic affairs. With
a panic on the Bourse, and food riots (many of which
have been attended with bloodshed and loss of life)
raging in twelve departments of the centre, west, and
north, the Ministry and the Chambers will scarcely
be inclined to waste time in long debates on the•

At the Bourse, on Monday, " Satire qui peat" was
again the order of the day, and every kind of security
has undergone a heavy tall. The state of the market
yeggars description. Threes at the close left off at

SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING.
A special general meeting of the shareholders of this com-
pany was held 3 esterday, at one o'clock, in the London Ta-
Vern, Bishopsgate- street, for the purpose, as stated in the
advertisement, " of taking into consideration, and approving,
or otherwise, the proposed application to Parliament for the
partial deviation of the line, and the amendment of the Act
constituting this company. Also, in compliance with the
requisition of the shareholders, for the further purpose of
taking into consideration and approving, or otherwise, cer-
tain propositions for an amalgamation of this company with
the Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle-upon-Tyns Junc-
tion Railway Company."
Considerable interest was excited in consequence of the
following counter-notice having been advertised in the
London journals :
" TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE NORTHERN COUNTIES
UNION RAILWAY COMPANY.
" In reference to an advertisement in the Morning Chroni-
cle on Monday, the 22d inst., calling a special meeting of the
Shareholders of the Northern Counties Union, to be held on
the 20th of January next, at the London Tavern, London, at
twelve o'clock, for the purpose of consideoing the propriety
or otherwise of an amalgamation of the said company with
the Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle Junction Railway
Company, we, the undersigned, being directors of the
Northern Counties Union Company, consider it our duty to
state that we dissent from the proposed amalgamation, and
shall be prepared at the above meeting to give our reasons
for such dissent.
(Signed)
" W. CRACKANTHORPE, Newbiggin Hall, Westmoreland.
" H. HOWARD, Greystoke Castle, Cumberland.
" H. PEASE, Pierrensont, Darlington.
"J. WHITWELL, Kendal, Westmoreland.
"J. C. HOPKINS, Woodside, Darlington."
The meeting was therefore densely crowded.
Major Beresford, M.P., was called to the chair.
The advertisement calling the meeting having been read,
The CHAIRMAN said that this meeting had two distinct
objects. In the first place, it was the intention of the directors
to lay before the meeting, for their consiGeration, an
amended Bill, which was to be introduced into Parliament
during the present session. That Bill he considered, and he
trusted the meeting would consider also, the effect of a resolu-
tion passed unanimously by the shareholders of this company,
at a general meeting held in August last. If he understood
the intention of the prospectus, it was that the simultaneons
construction of two lines of railway—the Yorkshire and
'Glasgow and the York and Carlisle—would be injurious and
detrimental, and contrary to the wishes of the shareholders
of this company. If he were mistaken in this view of their
wishes, they could state that he was wrong, and firmly
and decidedly express the opinion which they really held,
and the intention which they meant to adopt in consequence.
If his reading of their wishes was the correct one ; if they
did consider that the simultaneous- construction of
these two lines was opposed to the- general interests
of the shareholders; if they did consider that it was right and
just to let them have the expenditure Of their own moneys,
then, he said, they were justified in bringing forward the
amended Bill in this session. It was proposed, and would
'be laid before the meeting that day, and they could then say
whether they would wish it to be carried through Parlia-
ment. If, on the contrary, they said that the chairman had
mistaken their views, then he would at once accede to their

opinions, but until they did so. express themselves,
he should hold that he had acted in obedience

to the wishes of the shareholders of the company.
Another matter in the Bill was to diminish, to some extent,
the amount of their capital.—(Cheers.) When they first
went before Parliament the amount of their capital had been
found more than sufficient (after calculating all expenses)
for the construction of either or both of their lines. The
Consequence was, that they were enabled to limit the capital
to 2,500,000/. if they constructed the Yorkshire and Glasgow
Junction, and the York and Carlisle; but, if they confined
themselves to the former, of course they could diminish their
capital still further. After the first object which
had called them together was disposed of, they
would proceed to place the second before them.
The requisition for calling the meeting to consider
this subject had been numerously signed by, shareholders
having shares in the Leeds and Carlisle, the Yorkshire and
Glasgow Junction, and the Liverpool, Manchester, and New
castle-upon-Tyne Junction. Certain conditions proposing
an amalgamatiion had been submitted by the latter com-
pany, but he could assure the meeting, that these conditions
had not been accepted by the directors of the Northern,
Counties Union Company. After some further remarks, the
Chairman called upon the Secretary to read the follow-
ing report :
" The present meeting has been convened for two objects
as stated in the advertisement.
" First,—for the purpose of taking into consideration and
approving, or otherwise, the proposed application to Parlia-
ment for the partial deviation of the line, and the amend-
ment
of the Act constituting this compaay,
4!Since the first general ordinary meeting of this cm-
- •

pany, your directors have turned their attention to carrying i
into effect the resolutions of that meeting with respect to I
e re-survey of the more expen,ive portions of your line,
and for making the necessary preparations to proceed to
Parliament in the present session for an amended Bill, ac-
cording to the report adopted at that meeting.
" Your directors have to state that a re-survey of the ex-
pensive portions of your line from Smardale Gill to Barnard
Castle, has been made by Mr. Harris, the engineer to the
original York and Carlisle line, with a view to diminish the
cost thereof, and that, upon examination of the sections,
your directors unanimously resolved not to adopt his plans
and survey, on account of the severity of the gradients.
"In compliance with an agreement entered into with the
Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle-upon. Tyne Junction
Railway Company, a deviation of your line has been surveyed
at the point of junction with that company's line, in order
to make as levels of both coincide. This deviation will im-
prove the line, and is estimated to effect a saving of expense
in constructing it.
"The draft of the Deviation Bill will now be laid before.
you.

" Your directors have the satisfaction of stating that they
have entered into a further agreement with the directors of
the Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne Junc-
tion Company for the joint construction of the line from
Carperby (the point of junction) to Wath.
" Secondly,—ln compliance with the requisition of the
shareholders for the further taking into consideration mad
approving, or otherwise, certain propositions for an amalga-
ation of this company with the Liverpool, Manchester, and
Newcastle-upon- Tyne -Junction Railway Company, the terms
of which your directors submit for your consideration."
The CHAIRMAN said, that they had heard the report read,
and he would move that it be received, adopted, and printed
for the use of the shareholders.
Mr. SAMS seconded the motion, and it was carried unani-
mously.
The CHAIRMAN then read the clauses in the amended Act,
the principal of which were the 12th and 13th, the former
of which enacted that the capital, which in the former Bill
was to be expended in equal proportions, and simultaneously,
in the construction of that part of the railway which was
situated between Thirsk Wath and Clifton, and in the con-
struction of that pat t between Bishop Auckland and Tebay.
(the only part remaining of the York and Carlisle), should
not be expended simultaneously, but at the will of
the directors, and on any part of the line; the last to au-
thorise that the capital be 2,500,000/. instead of 3,000,000/.
He concluded by moving that the Bill be agreed to by the
shareholders
Mr. SAMS seconded the resolution.
Mr. H. HOWARD, in a long address, moved an amendment
that the simultaneous clause be kept inviolate. He con-
sidered that it was an attempt on the part of certain of the
directors to throw the only remaining portion of the York
and Carlisle Railway overboard—he meant that portion of
the line between Auckland and Tebay ; and on the part of
those who had paid their moi ey for the, construction of that
portion, he protested against the doing away with the clause,
and he would demand a poll on the sul jest.
Mr. EAST seconded the amendment, which was supported
by Mr. Crackanthorpe, Mr Pease, and other gentlemen.
After a long discussion, and much confusion, occasioned by
Mr. Howard's determination to take the poll before having a
show of hands,
The CHAIRMAN overruled this determination, and took the
show of hands, when only 13 were held up for the amend-
ment and some hundreds for the original resolution.
Mr. HOWARD again, and amid the utmost confusion, de-
manded a poll, which wis taken, the numbers were—
For the original resolution, present and proxies 8,140
For the amendment, present and proxies 3,303

Majority

The resolution having been declared carried,
The CHAIRMAN introduced the subject of an amalgamation
with the Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne
Juneti.n Company.
Mr. H. Innutcrrr moved " That power be given to enter
into preliminary arrangements for the purposes of an amal •
rgamation of this company with the Liverpool, Manchester,
and Newcastle Company; that a deputation be appointed,
consisting of the chairman and three directors, Mr. Wybill,
Mr. Collett, M.P., and Mr. Salkhill, to negotiate for that pur-
pose, and to authorise them to conclude arrangements and
report the same to the next general meeting."
Mr. CARLISLE seconded the resolution.

After some discussion, in which Mr. COLLETT and other
gentlemen took part,

Mr. CRACKANTHORPE moved " That it would be inex-
pedient to amalgamate with any other company."
Mr. liowAao seconded the amendment in a long speech,
which was frequently interrupted by the impatience of those
present.
Mr. WHITWELL, in an admirable address, supported the
amendment.

Mr. SALKICILL and Mr. Ammusts spoke in favour of the
original motion.
A show of hands was taken, when the original motion was
carried.

Mr. HOWARD demanded a poll, but it was decided that
►he question of " amalgamation ' was not before the meeting.
Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the meeting
separated after five hours' sitting.

TEMPLEMORE AND NENAGH
RAILWAY.

-The first general meeting of this company was held yes-
terday at their office, Gresham Rooms, Gresham-street.
W. R. Cor,Larr, Esq., M.P., took the chair shortly after one
,'clock, and after the advertisement had been read, said the
circumstances under which this meeting had been called were
not at all of agratifying description ; but when he stated what
had taken place since they had obtained their Act of
Parliament, he had no doubt that they would feel satisfied
that the directors had done their duty. The report which
would be read to them explained the particular reasons why
the directors had refrained from prosecuting the line. The
principal reason was, that the Great Southern and Western
Railway, of which he was a director, had hesitated to com-
plete the arrangement, and the promise which they had for-
merly made,namely, that they would render this company their
assistance either by the advance of money or by leasing the
line. That company found, however, that they had now so
much to do, amid the distressing circumstances of the
country, to open their own line to Cork, and the leading
non]-rti eaVNtitEhlarorriitirieffOrAlie same reasons. The
directors, therefore, in these circumstances, refused to
proceed further, and determined to liquidate all the liabi-
lities of the company, and to pay back the deposits to the
shareholders. He thought, however, that this was the
cheapest Act of Parliament which had yet beets obtained;
the engineering was low, as were the law expenses, notwith-
standir g that they had a double contest to fight in the
Committee, and he was proud of it, just that
it might show bow unnecessary heavy expenses
were. He said the line, of twenty-seven miles in length,
had been surveyed, and cost, together with law expenses, ad-
vertising, Sm., 6,1161. 9s. 7d., which included all the liabi-
lities of the company. This having been paid off left them
with a balance. in band of 6,0871. 2s. 6d., or 15s. 9d. a share,
which had been returned to the shareholders. The Hon.
Gentleman then enlarged on the superior prospects of the
company, whose line would be greatly enhanced in value by
the opening of the line from Dublin to Templeniore,
passing, as it did, through a rich agricultural
and mineral district. He said the directors hoped to be con•
tinned in office still further, with the command of 3001. per
annum, in order that they might continue the negotiations
of Government. As to the intentions of Government. he
would not, and indeed could not, speak with confidence, but
it had been stated last night in the House that they would
lay out money only on reproductive works, and he hoped
therefrom that Got ernnient might be induced to advance
one-halt the capital, and then, no doubt, the shareholders
would advance the other.

The report was then read and adopted.
The directors, auditors, and secretary were re-appointed,
and, after thanks to the chairmen, the meeting broke up.

A/NEI' and COMMERCIAL NEWS,
(From The Sun of last Night.)
In the Liverpool Cotton market yesterday there was mueh
flatne,s, aid the sales were but 2.000 bales. The prices of
American were 63/4d. to7l/A cl. per lb. Railway Shares have
been dull, but kept up tolerably well.
In the absence of arrivals, there is very little thought or
spoken of here but the _proceedings in the Legislature, and
their probable influence upon, the Monev Market. It must
be concedt d that matters at present wear but an indifferent
aspect, and that there are plenty willing, for interested pur-
poses, to exaggerate the extent of our difficulties, instead of
looking matters calmly in the face, and endeavouring to
lay apprehension,
The English Securities have been rather firmer on the
whole, though still susceptible in the highest degree to the
influence of large sales. Consols have been marked 913% %,
though at one period as low as 91%. Time bargains ha% e
been effected at 911/2 to 92. Bank Stock is marked 2051/2.
The New Three and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 93Nt %.
There has not been much doing in the Foreign Market.
Portuguese Four per Cents. have declined to 33 and 331/2.
and Spanish Three per Cents. are heavy, at 33%. Mexican
Bonds have been quoted 2141 to 22, and Brazilian, 863/,
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents, have realised 57%, and
, the Fourier Cents. 911/2.
Railway Shares have been depressed, and it is not to be
expected that buyers will come forward while these is a
prospect of a further decline. Many are ready to invest, bu
conceive that they may buy in cheaper.
