RICHMOND RAILIVA

The ordinary half-yearly general meeting ofthi, Company
was held yastelay at the London Tavern, for the rare ti n
of the ordinary business of
_the Company. Wm. wick,
EFq., was in the chair.

The advertisement calling the meeting having been read
by the Secretary,
rThe CumntuAN said that the prospects of the Company
were most encouraging. The branch lines from the railway
had already passed the standing orders—( Hear, hear)—and
the reports would fully explain the position in which they
stood. The report of the engineer would also be-read, and if
any gentleman chose to ask any question, he should be very
ready to answer him es far as he could.
•
The following report was then read :
" The directors, in meeting the proprietors on the present
occasion, have much plea,ure in reporting that considerable
progress has been made in carrying out the powers of the
Act authorising the construction ot this railway, and that
the present position of the Company's affairs, both as regards
the early completion of the line, and the cost of formation, is
very satisfactory.
" In consequence of the rapidity with which the works
have proceeded, the directors have found' it necessary to
avail themselves of the powers given to thorn by the pro-
prietors in August last. and a second call of 51. has been
made on the shareholders of this 'Company, which is in a
satisfactory course of payment.
"The necessary preparations have been duly made to en-
able the CoMpany to' apply for an Act in the present session
of Parliamertt.to construct a branch line to Kew-bidge,
which, when carried into effect, must add considerably to the
revenue of this Company, as the population of Brenttrord and
the neighbourhood, and the yisitGrs to the gardens, will ne-
cessarily bring a large increase of passenger traffic:
"rho treasurer's account showed that there were lleposits
to await the settlement of claims for land of 14,6311.; cash
at the tankers', &c., 13,9051.135.11;e1.—tga1,28,53E1. I3s. lid.
ENGINEER'S' REPORT.

" TO TIIE DIRECTORS OF THE RICIDIOND RAILWAY COMPANY.

" Gentlemen,—For the information of the proprietors at
the approaching meeting, I beg to inform you that since the
contract was made with Mr. Knit!, for the execution of all
the works on this railway, considerable progress has been
made towards their completion. The viaduct across the
Wandle, and the cutting at Putney, being the only works of
magnitude on the line, attention was first directed to them,
and the progress has been very satisfactory. The viaduct is
more than half built, and more than one-half of the excava-
tion of the entire line has been removed. Several over-
bridges between Putney and Barnes'-common have been
built, and the lighter earthwork and bridges are proceeding
as rapidly as is needful.
" The only part not begun is at Richmond end, but here
the line will be formed, nearly on the surface of the ground,
and a few mouths will suffice for completing it after posses-
sion of the land is obtained.

" The line may be completed by June neat; and if you
were disposed to push, there is no reason why it should not be
accomplished earlier. The works are not heavy, and delay
could only arise from our inability to obtain possession of
the land, or from a succession of bad weather; under any
circumstances you will not be wrong in calculating on the
opening in June.—l am, &c. " JOSEPH LOCKE."

Resolutions conforming to the report were then agrced to,
and the meeting broke up.

LONDON and BRIGHTON RAILWAY
MEETING OF PROPRIETORS.
The usual halfeyearly meeting of the shareholders in this
Company was held yesterday, at the London-bridge terminus.
The meeting was also a special one, for the purpose of sanc-
tioning or rejecting the formation of several branch lines, con-
sitting of the Croydon and Wandsworth branch, the Reigate
and Dorking branch, the Eest Grinstead branch, the Little
hampron branch, the Bognor branch, the Steyning branch,
the Newhaven and Seaford branch, the Eastbourne branch,
the Hai!sham branch, the Lewes and Keyiper branch devia-
tion; and also for other purposes, specified in the advertise-
ment. There was a large attendance of proprietors. Row-
land Hill, Esq. (the Chairman), took the chair at one o'clock
precisely. After the secretary had read the advertisement,
The CHAIRMAN said than it would not be necessary
for him to address them at any length in consequence
of the fulness of the repor (which the meeting decided
need not be read by the secretary, in consequence of
its having been distributed amongst the shareholders
previously to the chair being taken.) The 6th of February
had arrived, and with it the downfal of the three proposed
sehemes—the Dorking. Arundel, and Brighton Atmospheric,
the Tunbridge Wells and Lewes line, and the Epsom and
Derking line, which was proposed by certain parties in oppo-
sition to a Bill which had been brought forward by the
friends of the Croydon Company. With respect to the
branches of this Company, the Wand-worth and East
Grinstead had passed the Standing Orders' Committee.
The Reigate and Dorking line had, however, been
thrown out in consequence of some technical. error. The
remaining branches or lines hod not
yet come before the
Committee, but they would in all probability go before the
Standing Orders' Committee that day. With the view of
furthering the interests of the public and the Company. the
directors had during the past half-year reduced the fares and
accelerated the speed of travelling on this Company's line.
—(Cheers.) The present depressed price of the shares
of this Comppny was equivalent to a twenty. five
years' purchase on the dividend. That fact arose
from an anticipated increase in the dividend, which antici-
pation, he doubted not, would be fully realsed.—(Hear,
hear.) The directors were determined to do everything
which would make the line more attractive to the puhlic,
who were, in his opinion, not properly aware of the cheap-
ness of travelling on the line. He would venture to a,sert
the fares on the London and Brighton line were much lower
than those of any other railway in this part of the kingdom.
Frcm personal experience he knew that the opinion of the
public was against the formation of any rival line to that of
this Company The meeting would be aware that two years
ago the South-Western Railway Company proposed to take
a-lease of this line. The proposition was almost unanimously
rejected. It was very curious that the annual dividend,
which that Company then offered, was precisely the sum
(355.) which this Company would reeeivejor the past half,
year. This fact showed the increasing prosperity of the line,
and must be highly satisfactory to the proprietors—(Cheers.)
He concluded by moving the adoption of the report.
Mr. SLIGHT wished to know what regulations lied been
made for the conveyance of the mails on this Company's line?
The CHAIRMAN had no objection to answer the question.
The directors bad every desire to make the line as useful as
possible to the people of Brighton. They therefore proposed
to take the .mails without any additional charge.—(Hear.)
The proposal had as yet been neither accepted or rejected.
Mr. noon, seeing that so much had been expended in the
Company's attempt to get the Wandsworth branch, wished
to know whether the directors intended proceeding on the
basis of the agreement of last year?
The CHAIRMAN replied in the affirmative.
Mr. WISHAW, after congratulating the directors on the suc-
cess of their labours, recommended them to adopt the prac-
tice of issuing two-day tickets.
The CHAIRMAN said that the question of two-day tickets
had been often and fully canvassed by the directors, and
they believed that it was not advisable to adopt the practice
suggested by the Hon. l'roprieter. With respect to the re-
duction of the fares for chil3ren, as recommended by an-
other Hon. Proprietor, the directors were of opinion that the
present policy of the Company in that respect should not be
altered.
The report was then unanimously adopted.
The CHAIRMAN then moved that a dividend of 355. per
share (deducting the income-tax) be payable on Tuesday,
the 24th instant.
The motion was seconded, and unanimously carried.
The CHAIRMAN titan moved that the directorsbe authorised
to receive the consolidated eighth shares, to convert. themj
into stock, on condition that such shareholders be permit ted
to pay up the remaining 10/. per share.
Mr. E. CROWLEY (the deputy-chairman) seconded the
motion. which was then unanimously passed.
Tue CHAIRMAN then said that the standing orders of the
House of Lords required a fuller netiee to be given to the
proprietors previously to their deciding upon the proposed
branches; but, as those of the House of Commons did not,
the dir ctors were anxious to hear the views of the
proprietors expressed without any further (Hay. The
directors did not intend to consider the erection of
the central terminus at Charing-cross until their next
hall-yearly meeting.—(Hear, hear.) The Chairman then
prcceeded to describe, with the aid of a chalk outline, the
routes of the various branchee pr p 'sed by the directors. As
regarded some of those lines it was net necessary to say
anything. Others of them he was enabled to state would
remunerate the Company, if they were ecoeomically made.
The remuneration would be very moderate indeed, but the
great advantage arising from their formation would be the
fact of their acting as feeders to ether important lire'.—
(Hear, hear.) He thee moved tee approval of the appliCa-
tionto Parl.ament of the different branches mentioned in
the advertisement. T.•e total leteeth of those lines would be
46 miles, and the expense 636.000/.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. noon, -at some length, contended that it would be
inexpedient to form the proposed branch to Wandsworth,
because the South-Eastern Company had it ie their e-wer to
construct a branch at the same place, eta far less e'sp mse
than this COmpany possibly could, and the South-Eastern
would, no doubt, avail themselves of ha ci cam tat ce. Be
proposed, as an amendment to the motion under coneetera
tion, that that portion of the resolution which applied to
Wandsworth should be omitted.
The CHAIRMAN—DM any gentleman second the motion?
—(Cries of" No, no," and laughter.) The Chairman then
said that the question upon which Mr. Flood had spoken at
so much length had long occupied the careful consideration
of the directors and the proprietors at large, and their
unanimous opinion was that the Wandsworth branch
should be applied for.—(Hear, hear.)
The original motion was then put and unanimously car-
ned.

The CHAIRMAN then said that the expense of the applica-
tion for the branch in question would be 3,2041. 3s. Bd.
which would include surveyor's expenses, &c.
The CHAIRMAN then moved that the meeting confirm the
report for making the extension from Pareham to Ports-
mouth.
It was seconded and carried unanimously.
It was moved by the CHAIRMAN, that the directors should
be authorised to convert the share capital into stock.
This motion was put and carried trnen'mously.
The businesi next before the meeting, the CHAIRMAN said,
would be the election of directors in the room of those re-
tiring. He was sorry that the company wou'd lose the ser-
vices of Mr. Henderson altogether, as he had refused to be
re-elected.
Mr. FLooD proposed that Henry Spencer Cooper, Esq.,
should be re-elected a member of the Ka d.
The motion was seconded ar d carried unanimously.
Mr. MILLER proposed Mr. Gale in the room of Mr. Hen-
derson, who 'retires. Ile En'ered at conside -able length into
the qualifications of the candidate.
Mr. C. CROWLEY secondel the motion.
Mr. Simpsore proposed, as a candipate for the same va-
cancy, the Hon. Captain Hotham, acd entered at length into
his merits.
Mr. Scow had great pleasure in seconding that nomi-
nation.
Mr. SOLOMON'S rose to a point of order. lie suggested
that the names of those directors be given who left them-
selves open to re-electior.
The CHAIRMAN wou'd have suggested the same course had
he not been interested.
Mr. SOLOMONS moved that Rowland Hill, Esq., should be
re-elected a member of the Boa►el.
The motion was warmly secorded, and carried unanimously.
Mr. Trim moved the re• e ection of E. Watson, Esq. This was
seconded.
Mr. 3.lAcumn, of Leeds, moved that Lel cello:4er should
be elected a member m'f the Boa. d. Air. Ogle, of Leeds, se-
conded the nomination.
The CHAIRMAN still thought the course which had been
already noticed by the meeting should be punned, of
putting the names of the retiring directors first to the votes
of the proprietors.
Mr. MAcmsar. explained that he meant his motion as an
amendment to that in regard to Mr. Watson.

form, as they proceeded immediately to the roll in reference
to all the candidates togeth'r, 85 the election by shovr of
hands was revoked by the demand for a poll.
The vacancies, therefore, to be filled were four, and the
rewere six candidates to be polled for, viz. :—Howland
Esq.; Henry Cooper, Esq. ; Edward Watson, Esq.; J.

The proprietors immediately proceeded to the poll.

Carlton Club, London, Feb. 1846.
Gentlemen,—l hope the subject contained in this letter
will be Considered by you a sufficient apology for my tn."
truding myself upon your notice. .As I have focli-
years past • resided near your line of railway, an
been tolerably well acquainted with all the proceedings
of your directors from the time the Company v•'as first
formed, going to make a few ob,ervations as to the
real position of your affairs at the present time. of
And, first of all, remind you of the proceedings -
your directors last year towards the late solicitor of the
Board of Ordnance. They proved, by their conduct uPen
that occasion, and by their petition to the House of Col'
mous, tl.at they had negociated with a servant of the Gr
verninent, apparently with the object-0 say apparently to •
charity—to obtain his influence at the Ordnance-office 1
allow the (South-Eastern) North Kent line to pass through
Government property, to the prejudice of the rival comonif;
And, becauee, the Master-General, at a later stage of t
proceedings, withdrew his dissent from the other ConlPl
your directors turned round and exposed the very in,
whom they had induced, by (may I not say questionalosott
means, to promote their ends, because he was _bps
able to do all for them that they wished. The usw,"t
of Mr. Bonham and Captain Boldero were also broug"
conspicuously before the public, who, I believe, re,
two as Honourable Members as ever lived, and were as I,Pld
fectly innocent of the charges imputed to them as the c'"
unborn.
It is rumoured that Members of Parliament feel so inde;
nant, that there is more than a possibility, perhaps, that: to. to 3
will exert themselves to throw out all the Bills beleng'l3o•oo
the South-Eastern Company that are brought in this sass
—if they do not most plainly advantage the public intere 5,-
unless you, shareholders, turn out all the present directors. in
In the next place, I will inform you of the nianner,s
which your money has been and is likely to be spent, 1"):100
you elect other men to have the management of ,Y,..1031
Company. Without saying anything as to the orieo.d
formation of the line, which, of course, the present De",-
bad nothing to do with, I will only refer to some of the
ceedings of last session. A Bill was brought .before P"rj,
ment for making a line from Hastings to Aehfoid, throt"e•
country where there is no traffic and that never can roll is
rate the shareholders for the outlay. Ask any one residicoaey
that country, and they will tell you that your n' line
might almost as well be thrown into the sea. Pr, 13boer,
was proposed to be carried across a portion of Rye ~
°riot
and the Commissioners of the harbour sent up a Ipec-ceel, •
to the Admiralty, begging them not to allow them tothe
as they considered it would be a serious obstruction
,tutipoe
navigation, and in consequence of this a stop was I,..neeters
their proceedings; and it was only because your "111.. veer _
entered into an arrangement to lay out 10,0001. e,',fuced
money upon the harbour, that the Admiralty was lies
to withdraw their veto. It is no more necessary for eefairi
to go across any,portion of Rye Harbour than it is necod if
to cross the Thames to go from London to Blackwell ; Alter
you can get Mr. R. Stephenson, your present engiucer'deeir
examining the saot, to say that it is either necessary or. IA to
able that this line should cross the harbour, I will nnr'ete be
have my hand cut off. I may be told that this lsios of
made on purpose to please the Government, as it il5l oest
the nature of a coast line. This being the case, it lao nee
extraordinary thing that the Admiralty, who e de siti
important section of the Government, should have no
obstacle to its proceeding. • Trent tblels
Your directors intend to bring a Bill into Parini we/
