GRAVESEND AND ROCHESTER

RAILWAY.—(THIS DAY.)
A general meeting ng of shareholders was held this day at
the tieorge and If tilture Tavern, Cornhill, for the purpose of
considering the propriety of approving of a Bill to authorise
the sale of this line to the South-Eastern Railway Company;
Mr. Mexen in the chair.

It appeared from the statements of the Chairman, and
the report read by the Secretary, that the terms of purchase,
za stipulated between the two companies, was 310,0001., and
that the South-Eastern Railway Company had, on the 24th
of April, paid a deposit of 10 per cent., or 31,0001. on the ori-
Rnal purchase-money, to the directors of the Gravesend and
ochester Company, as a guarantee for the due fulfilment of
their portion of the contract, one term of which was, that
it was to be completed and ratified either on the Ist of
September next, or thirty days after the close of the present
session of Parliament, under pain of forfeiture of the deposit.
A resolution in approval of the terms of sale was moved
by the Chairman, and passed unanimously.
Resolutions approving of the report, also complimentary
to the superintendent and secretary, having been passed, the
meeting separated, after a vote of thanks to the Chairman.

LYNN AND ELY RAILWAY.
(THIS DAY.)
A special meeting of the proprietors took place this day, at
the offices of the Company, Abingdon-street, for the purpose
of empowering the Directors to borrow money. The meeting
was very poorly attended.
At two o'clock the chair was taken by Sir W. B. Folkes.
The CHAIRMAN stated that the capital of the Company
was 360,000/., and now that the half of the money was paid
lir, they sought to ease the calls on the shareholders
by borrowing money-160,000i. had been paid up on the
three first calls, and the directors had even at the
present moment a balance of about 30,000/. in their hands.
The works were in great progress, and the first part of the
line would be finished by July next.
A resolution empowering the directors to borrow money
having been agreed to, the meeting adjourned.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY

OLD COURT.
London, England, 1846-06-17

CANADA.

The following particalars of sales have been gathered
from the Land returns for 1844 :—Farm —Farm (or country) lots,
381 ; town lots, 838 ; park (or suburban) lots, 70: total,
1,289. Producing 26,074/. 18s. 7d.
The number of immigrants landed at the ports of
Quebec and Montreal in 1845 was 25,375. of whom 633
were cabin passengers. A comparison of this aggregate,
with the return of 1844, shows an increase of 5,233,
equal to 26 per cent.
It is not practicable to ascertain precisely the number
of departures from the province to the United States,
Mr. Buchanan estimates the number at about 4,000,
which is more by 2,800 than went in the preceding year,
while the number of arrivals by way of the United States
does not 'appear to exceed 2,600, making the accession
to the population consequent to the year's immigration
to be between 23,000 and 24,000 persons. Several of
them were possessed of moderate capital, and pro-
ceeded at once to purchase partially improved pro-
perties, or to enter into trade. A larger proportion
were small farmers, with sufficient means to unable
them to establish themselves advantageously_ on
wild lands; but the great bulk were agricultural labourers,
many of whom had nothing even for their immediate
support. The total expenditure ou the relief of destitute
immigrants, including the cost of agency, was 6,9441.
4s. 24. currency, being an increase of 2,0001. Bs. sd. on
that of the preceding year. The charges for agency in
the two years was nearly equal. The disbursements for
buildings and repairs amounted to 732/. Bs. 2d. in 1844,
and only 961. ss. 6d. in 1845. The increase, therefore,
for direct assistance to emigrant families was upwards of
2,6001. Some allowance must be made for there having
been a larger emigration, but the chief cause of the in-
creased expenditure last par was the enhanced rates of
transport on the routes between Montreal and King-
ston, the passage having been raised from 4s. to 10s. for
an adult.

We are sorry to notice, that although the average
length of the voyage was somewhat less than in the
preceding year there was an increase in the mortality
both during the voyage and in hospital after arrival.
Many cases of fever and small-pox were sent to hospital,
and the medical superintendent has mainly attributed the
origin of the disease to the cr.)wded, filthy, and ill-ven-
tilated lodgings occupied by the emigrants previously to
their embarkation.

The number of passenger vessels during the past
seacon was 256. Of these net more than 147 came
within the regulations of the Passengerb' Act, and con-
,;pquently a very considerable number sailed from this
country without any previous inspection by Government
officers.

GROUP X."X.

The Committee on this (the Windsor) group met-to-day, at twelve
o'clock, in Room No. 31 (OrAnd t orricor). Present, Mr. Sotheron
(chairman), Mr. Pigott, Mr. Ross, Lord W. Ilentinck. &c.
They resumed the consideration of the
LONDON AND WINDSOR.

Mr. Thompson, the engineer of the company, whose direct evidence
in favour of the lin, was concluded yesterday, was now cross-exa-
mined at considerable length.
In the course of the cross-examinati, n of Mr, Thompson, it ap-
peared that the promoters had not otdained the consent of the Me-
tropolitan Roads Commissioners to cross their roads upon a level.
The Committee, after a long consultation, came to the opinion
that, under such circumstances, it was useless to proceed further
with the Bill ; they woivd, however, hear counsel in reply tomorrow.
Adjourned at four o'clock.
London, England, 1846-06-17

RICHMOND (KEW BRANCH)

Mr. CHAMBERS stated the case of the promoters. The proposed
line was intended to be connected with the Richmond line about
to be very shortly opened. It would extend from Mortlake to Kew,
the length being little more than a mile and a half, and the cost was
estimated at between twenty-five and twenty-seven thousand
pounds. There would ultimately be a continuous line from the
York-road to Kew, an accommodation of great advantage not only
to the pleasure traffic, but to the scientific traffic of the metropolis.
The Learned Gentlemen then went into a detailed statistical enume-
ration of the numbers and various classes of visitors for pleasure or
science to the Botanical Gardens at Kew, and the other points of
attraction in that neighbourhood. He quoted largely from the re-
ports of Sir W. J. Hoooker, in the years 1845 and 1846, on the Royal
Botanic Gardens and the proposed new Palm-houses, at Kew, to
show the importance of this railway in a popular as well as scientific
view.

GROUP Will.
The Committee met to-day at twelve o'clock, in Room No. 24,

Marquis of Worcester, Viscount Newry, Mr. Smollett, and Mr.

This morning the landholders' opposlt'on was taken against this
line. It was contended that there was no immealate necessity for

housie respecting the amalgamation, and his Lordship and the Board of

a direct line with Galway in the west. The country was extremely
rich, presented no engineering difficulties of a serious character, and
met with the approbation of the inhabitants of the districts through
which it was proposed to pass. Besides, it would a work of great
public importance.

GROUP XXXI.

BIRMINGHAM AND BRISTOL (ASH-
CHURCH, 'TEWKESBURY, and MALVERN).
The Committee to which the above railway is referred met to-day
at twelve o'clock.

The day was occupied principally in hearing the evidence adduced
on the part of the promoters of the Bill, in order to show the
amount of passenger and goods traffic upon the route of the
proposed line between Malvern, Worcester, Tewkesbury, Chel-
tenham, and Gloucester. It was proved that the amount of
traffic between those points would be amply sufficient to support a
railway, such as the one proposed. The feeling along the line was
much in favour of its formation, as it would afford an infinitely bet-
ter means of communication than the Severn, which was an uncer-
tain river, as it was subject to great floods and low ebbs, which some-
times stopped the passage of the river for weeks together. Goods
conveyed by water had also the disadvantage of being much subject
to pilfering, by which considerable loss was sustained.
The Committee adjourned at four o'clock.

THE QUEEN DOWAGER.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
RAMSGATE, JUNE 16.—Her Majesty the Queen Dowager and suite
arrived here by special train this afternoon, at one o'clock, en route
to Ostend, for which purpose the Admiralty yacht Black Eagle had
been placed at her disposal. The first intimation of her arrival was
given to the public by the hoisting of the royal standard on the
church, and a salute of twenty-one guns from the pier, and shortly
after the royal party proceeded to the yacht, which was lying at the
mouth of the harbour, both piers of which were crowded with spec-
tators anxious to catch a glimpse of their transient visitor. The
Garland mail-packet departed with the carriages two hours before her
Majesty, so as to be in readiness for her at Ostend.

James Macgregor, Esq., chairman, Feilden, Esq., M.P., Vis-
count Torrington, and other directors of the South-Eastern Railway,
were in attendance upon her Majesty while on her journey from
London. _ _ _ _ .

The traffic between this port and Ostend is still on the increase,
the number of passengers and carriages in and out from the Ist to
the 14th of this month, being, of the former, 846, and of the latter,
20, with the prospect of a still larger increase.
