SOUTH UNION AND BIRMINGHAM
JUNCTION RAILWAY.
A Meeting of the Committee of Management of the above Rail-
way Company was held on Friday, the 19th ultimo, at the offices of
the Company, No. 17, Fludyer-street, 'Westminster, W. COLLINS,
Esq., M.P., in the Chair, to take into consideration the state of their
affairs, and the course it would become them to take, in consequence
of the Plans and Sections not having been duly lodged, as well as in
consequence of their extremely defective state.
These two facts having been clearly demonstrated, the Committee
felt that, in justice to the shareholders, there was no course open
but that of immediately checking all further outlay, and proceeding
to wind up the affairs of the Company for this year.
The following resolutions were unanimously adopted :
" That as the gross negligence of the engineer and lithographer,
relative to the Plans and Sections, has rendered it impossible to
proceed to Parliament in the ensuing session with any chalice of
success, this Committee deem it advisable to wind up this concern
as promptly as possible for this session, rather than involve the
Company in farther expenses at the present time."
"That, accordingly, the sum of twenty eight shillings per share be
forthwith returned to the shareholders by an order on the Com-
pany's Bankers, to be granted at the offices, No. 17, Fludyer-street,
Westminster, on producing the scrip, and that a memorandum be in-
dorsed thereon, which will entitle each holder to the same number of
shares in the new Company, with an allowance per share on the
deposit then required, equal to the present deduction of 12s. per
share."

" That all outstanding accounts be called in immediately, in order,
if found correct, that they may. be discharged."
" That after liquidation of all claims on the. Company, the balance
ot t
edeposits then remaining in hand Orally) to be retained towards
this

REPORT. .

The Committee have to report thit nothing has been wanting on
their part, or on that of their solicitors and secretary, to insure the
success of the undertaking.
The solicitors' department having been conducted with great care
and ability, and the Book of Reference having been ready for deposit
in ample time, the failure in the deposit of Plans and Sections is en-
tirely to be attributed to the neglect of the engineer and his assist-
ants—a neglect the more extraordinary, inasmuch as at a very early
date the Committee were repeatedly assured by the engineer that
everything in his department was in the most advanced state.

The assurance tluitthe plans and sections would be complete long
before the 30th, was repeated at two several meetings of seine of the
Committee., at Birmingham in the middle of November, and reite-
rated in London from day to day, and from hour to hour, towards the
close of the month, until, tired out by the frequent excuses for not
producing the same, several members of the Committee resolved to
convince themselves as to the real state of things by an investigation
at the lithographer's office, when, to their extreme astonishment,
they found that, even so late as Saturday afternoon, the sections bad
not been engraved.

By dint of the greatest exertions, however, this part of the duty
was at length got through, though, as it afterwards proved, in a most
defective manner.

On the morning of the 30th the lithographer ceased his labours,
really, or pretending to be, broken down by exertion.
At this critical moment of the proceedings three of the Committee
and the solicitor found themselves reduced to the necessity of assist-
ing personally In the lithographer's work, and in arranging and
binding up the sheets, and by these means, at length, in the afternoon
T'the 30th, the Plans and Sections were dispatched to their several
