amalgamation had yet been entered into between the two
above-named companies, the meeting could not pr, perly
come to any resolution couched in the spirit of the advertise-
ment by which it had been called. He concluded by mov-
ing a resolution to the effect that, inasmuch as there had
been no amalgamation between the Remington and Ras-
trick lines, it was desirable that each Company should have
a meeting of its own • that the meeting was, at the same
tame, obliged to Mr. iocock for having, by his advertisement,
called their attention to the condition of the two projects,
but that he ought not to have ealled it in the manner in
which he had, as the Companies were entirely distinct and
separate.—(Cheers.)
fir. DAVIS having seconded the resolution,
A SHAREHOLDER wished to know what funds still remained
on hand ? ( Hear, hear.) The shareholders were, in point
of fact, entitled to force them to give a full and faithful ac-
count of the position of the company's affairs without any
further delay.—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN then moved that a resolution should be
forwarded to the directors of the two companies, calling upon
them to wind up the affairs of the two undertakings, and
pay over the surplus of funds on hand immediately to the
shareholders.
The resolution was seconded by Mr. °BEARD, who
was decidedly of opinion that it would be for his benefit if
the Companies were dissolved.—( Hear. hear.) Probably
there were some gentlemen present whose interests would
not be served by such a course.—(Hear, and laughter.)
Mr. ANDERTON trusted that his resolution would be put
in the first instance. He was about to make some further
observations in support of it, but from the great uproar which
prevailed, he declined further addres.ing the meeting.
The CHAIRMAN then put Mr. Anderton's resolution, when
20 hands were held up for it, and a complete forest of hands
against it. He then pat the resolution which he had himself
moved, for which almost every head was held up. Great
cheering, of course, followed.
Mr. SAMUEL POCOCK then moiled that two copies of a
protest, embodying the resolution of the meeting, be for-
warded to the directors of the two Companies. After this
meeting the shareholders would, of course, protest against
any furujtnohiertsrstauhkmailllsigon.fg—miloHconeenyadrb,edehintehgaree..xpended in the prosecution
of
thel'tlr. )resolution, it was put and
unanimously carried.

It was then unanimously resolved that a committee, con-
sisting ot ten shareholders (two-thirds of Rastrick's, and the
remainder of Remington's Company) be formed, and the chair-
' man be appcinted.to carry the foregoing resolutions into effect.
Another resolution, to the effect that the committee
should have the power of investigating the accounts of the
directors, was then moved by Mr. Samuel Pocock,
The resolution having been seconded,
A SuattEnot.DEß said, that it was impossible for the
meeting to confer any such power on the committee.
The CRAMMAN, however, put the resolution, which was
declared to be carried. _

To defray the expenses of the commitee and the present 1
meeting. it was resolved that a subscription of one shilling be
paid for every ten shares.
The CHAIRMAN, in reply to a shareholder, said that he
believed that 80,000 shares of 51. ss. each had been paid into
Rastrick's, and 70,000 or 80,000 of 21. 15s. into Remington's
Company.
Thanks were then voted, on the motion of Mr. Obbard, to
the Chairman, who having responded thereto, the meeting,
which was rather a stormy one throughout, separated at
half-past four o'clock.

RAILWAY COMMITTEES

(THIS DAY.)

Sub-Committee No. 4. -
This Sub-Committee re-assembled to-day, at twelve o'clock.
The Members present were—Sir W. Heathcote,, Chairman,
Mr. Ackland, Mr. Hope Johnstone.
The case of the
WEST OT ENGLAND 317 NOTION

was then proceeded with. This case was adjourned from the
last assembling of the Committee. The formal proofs were
not entered into, as the party on whom devolved the duty
of depositing the plans with the different parish clerks was
absent.
The allegation of the Rev. Mr. Barry was then proceeded
with. It appeared there was no vertical scale on the plans
deposited with the clerks for the counties of Oxford and
Southampton; and there was also a discrepancy of 26
chains with reference to the terminus as shown on the scale
and to its actual position. There was also a number of other
allegations, but of no public importance. The Committee
adjourned shortly before four o'clock.

Sub-Committee No. 6.
This Committee stands adjourned till twelve o'clock to-
morrow.

Sub-Committee No. 7.

The following Members composing this Committee met at
the usual hour to day :—Mr. Strutt (chairman), Mr. Beckett,
and Mr. Denison.
The proceedings commenced by calling on
TU SOUTH TOR.X.SHIRE COAL BILL.

Mr. Coa:es, agent for the promoters ; Mr. Smith, agent
for the opposition.
Atter some minor objections, the following was alleged :
That sto plan had been deposited with the parish clerk of the
patish of Cawthorne.
Several Acts of Parliament, together with an Inclosure
Act, were produced on the part of the promoters, in all of
which the alleged parish of Cawthorne was defined and de-
clared to be a township only. The Committee, consequently,
decided that this was not a non-compliance with the stand-
ing orders.
The Committee then adjourned.
