in o mph rosperous condition, and with the joint In;
lluence of t- commercial interest of London and laudeu
interest of Yorkshire stood so strong before the country
as to defy all opposition.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BoYD asked what was the amount of deposit
paid up?
The CHAIRMAN said that thy had paid us on 14.0,g1
tifiy old wLich equal to 4-o,ov-
hhates ui ti,e Leeds and
A SHARE- OLDFR wished to kaow what numberh
er
shares they had issued in all?
The CHAIRMAN did not know how many.
A SHAREHoLDER—Had they paid enough to brig
their scheme before Parliament ?
The CHAIRMAN- —YeF, quite enough. The fact vr3s
that the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union had registered
previous to the 10 per cent. being required by the
standing orders; and the consequence was, that tbiel
only paid 5 per cent. on their capita!; consequently'
when they arnalg4niated, the Lee.s and Carlisle
only pay half of the amount which otherwise they WO''.
require to do, while: the Yorkshire and GlasgowUni°'
paid the other half, or all that they had lodged. ...A,S4ll'l
when they would require to go before the House °`
Lords, the Leeds and Carlisle had their deposits ready;
and the other Company would lodge an additional 5 Pt
cent., which theywere quite ready to do.—(Hear, lteata
That was the reason why the scrip of the Leeds ou
Carla tie was stamped.

The report wa3 then unanimously adopted.
Mr. W. J. HARRISON moved; a resolution of confi'
deuce in the Directors, which being seconded by Mr.
GIDEON COLQtJUOUN, was carried.
The CHAIRMAN britfly returned thanks, and promised
that the exertions of the Directors should not be slack
ened until the Company was completely successful.
Thanks were then, on the motion of Mr. HANNIA
seconded by Mr. UNDERWOOD, given to the Chairman'
and the meeting separated.

BOW-STREET.--(THIS DA Y.)
Joseph Parker, a boy apparently about fifteen years LI(
age, was charged with stealing one hundred copies of II
publication, now out of print, the property of Mr. Car
dill; the printer and proprietor of the Court Magazine.
Policeman F 25 stated that on Saturday night, havill
reason to suspect that some stolen property had bee"
concealed in some barrels which were lying in Stockivg;
lane, near Lincoln's Inn, he searched them, and fou"
in one a parcel, which he now produced. lle left i;
the barrel, and remained there to watch the place. ;4
about twelve o'clock at night he saw the prisoner tal't
the parcel out of the barrel, and walk off with it una,e
his arm. Witness then took him in charge, when .
prisoner said that he got it from his master's office, ti.,
it contained some tracts, and that he was going to tt
them home for his mother to read. 'Witness asked b'w
who was his master, and he said, Mr. Cardiff. The spy
where the parcel was concealed was about three yar
from the b...lck entrance to Mr. Cardiff's premises.
Mr. Cardiff stated that for the last ten years a system
of robbery had been carried on by persons in his Cl,
ploy, and, though several had been discovered and 01:
charged, the robberies continued. The prisoner
employed by him as an errand boy, and the papers ro
duced were his property. There were about a nuniiref
envies of the sam., leaf of an old book, the c.)pyright
which was his (witness's) property. The work was OP
of print, and very scarce.
The prisoner, who made no defence, was commit'ea
for trial.
