the line connecting their property with the port of Swan-
sea, a Bill for the construction of which is now before
Parliament. The line is now ready for the reception of'
the rails, which will be purchased as soon as there are
sufficient funds arising from the calls due from .the
shareholders. No other business but that connected with
the railway was brought before the meeting, and the re-
port was unanimously adopted.
We understand that She committee of the Company of
Copper Miners in England, being dissatisfied with the
manner in which the cause of Fox v. the Company of
Copper Miners was argued before Lord Campbell, in
which cep an adverse judgment was given, have applied
for a copy of the judgment of the Learned Lord, in order
to see if there are sufficient reasons to move for a new
trial.
In Foreign Mines, the United Mexican have fluctuated
during the week, the prices quoted being as lo# as 4* to
L. Business has also been done in Copuipo, Cobre, St.
John del Rey, Linares, and Worthing.
