THE GRE4T SIIIP COMPANY.

MEETING THIS DAY.

The adjourned meeting of the proprietors of this company
was held Ito-day, at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-
street, to receive the report of the committee of investiga-
tion appointed to examine into the million and prospects
of the company.
The chair was taken at one o'clock by J. R. Campbell,
Esq.

SPORTING NOTES.

Mr. BARER, the chairman of the committee of investi-
gation, then read the report as follows :
Gentlemen,—The committee of investigation appointed
by you at the adjourned general meeting, on the 17th
ultimo, before reporting the result of their labours, deem
it their duty to express their sincere and deep regret for the
severe loss this company has sustained by the untimely
death of Captain Harrison ; and they hope the shareholders
will pass a resolution marking the high estimation in
which he was held by them. Your committee have to
lament that they lost in Captain Harrison a material wit-
ness. They have since their appointment been constantly
engaged in prosecuting their inquiries, and have examined
a great number of persons; but, from their want of power
to obtain evidence under the sanction of legal process, and
to compel the attendance of witnesses, the information they
have obtained has been so conflicting or ex-parte, that your
committee do not feel sessrranted in passing a judgment
which may either exonerate or implicate any ndividual
connected with the management of your affairs. At the same
time they have sufficient grounds to arrive at the conclusion,
that your interests require that they should be intrusted to
an entirely new board, selected with the view of conciliating
the hitherto antagonistic elements in your organisation.
The committee strongly recommend the alteration of
your articles of association, in such manner as will
abolish the office of managing directors ; and they concur
in the opinion that the number of directors should be
limited to seven. They take the liberty of recommending
that the seats in the direction be offered to—The Marquis
of Stafford, Captain C. E. Mangles, Hen. Thos. Hope, Esq ,
Samuel Baker, Esq., the Hon. Captain Carnegie, lt.N. J.
Rodney Croskey, Esq., and Daniel Gooch, Esq. Your
committee are of opinion that Mr. Magnus, in his opposi-
tion to the eontracts entered into with Mr. J. Scott Russell,
and in his application for an inquiry, was influenced by a
conscientious desire to forward the interests of the company.
Considering that the Great Eastern should be placed, with-
out loss of time, in a condition to earn a dividend for the pro-
prietors, and that for this purpose further capital is abso-
lutely necessary, your committee recommend that the
directors be authorised to borrow any sum or sums of money
not exceeding £50,000 in the whole, in addition to the moneys
already owing by the company ; that the nominal capital of
the company be increased from £330,000 to £430,000; and
that full powers be vested in the board to raise, by mort-
gage, debentures, preference shares, or otherwise, such addi-
tional capital, iinecessary. It is not anticipated by your
committee, that the whole of this sum will be required. It
must be recollected that a large sum is claimed under the
arbitration now pending with Mr. J. Scott Russell, and the
result should be advantageous to the company. Your com-
mittee desire to claim your especial attention to the position
in which the Great Eastern is now placed. She lies in
Southampton Waters, requiring an estimated outlay of not
more than £30,000 to send her en a voyage to America,
equipped, in accordance with the just requirements of the
Board of Trade. Her cost to the proprietors will then be
about £380,000, fitted for sea, which is less than £l7 per ton.
The Great Eastern is acknowledged to be the finest specimen
of naval architecture that has yet floated. Her qualities
as a sea boat have been proved ; her speed, although not
fully tested, has exceeded that of the largest class of steam
ships against a head wind. Under united and energetic
management she must become profitable to you, and reflect
honour upon her original projectors. Your committee can-
not believe that this great nautical experiment will be
allowed to languish for want of the comparatively small 811111
now required. In conclusion, your committee strongly
recommend to the new Board a more careful economy
both at the company's offices and on board the ship They
feel it is due to the directors to state that every facility has
been afforded by them and by their secretary during the
investigation.

THE SEASON INAUGURATED.
The programme of the racing season is now placed fairly
before the sporting public, and it must be regarded with
considerable satisfaction. It promises not only an abun-
dance of sport, but also many stirring incidents. New and
important two and three-year-old races have been esta-
blished, and they are already ex siting much interest and
attention. The prospects of sport at Newmarket were never
more cheering, and the Jockey Club is likely to reap a full
harvest of prosperity from the seeds of reform which they
scattered sparingly at first, but which they at last dis-
tributed with no niggardly hand. At the Epsom
Spring two days' meeting will be held instead
of one ; the City and Suburban being run
for on the first day, and the Metropolitan
and the new two-year-old race established by the liberality
of Mr. Carew on the second day. The Northampton list is
strengthened, and the York Spring maintains its attractions

unimpaired. Next week as excellent meeting will take
place at Lincoln, and alreany the principal Handicap is spe-
culated upon with some eagerness. Mr. Newcome's levees
daily become more numerous, and his morning perusal of the
Times is becoming so frequently interrupted that he will
soon have to abandon that recreation altogether. He is now
being much troubled about the Slough events, but at present
he is feeling his way with caution. By-the-bye, nearly all
persons seem agreed that Mr. Topham's venture at Sleigh
is likely to be attended with success, and I earnestly wish it
may, for the Cestrian C. C. has not received much en-
couragement in his attempts to provide sport in the vicinity
of London. I trust that on this occasion he may receive
some compensation for his large outlays and many disap •
pointments. As the promised sport is being discussed with
much curiosity, I will briefly refer to the probabilities.
Should the Huntsman be sent for the Military Steeple-
chase, the horses he is likely to meet will have little chance
with him. The Slough Plate will, perhaps, go to either
Mr. Barling or Ben Land. Omar Pacha and Bibworth
Lass are most to my Blasi; for the Metropolitan Handicap.
Both Congreve and King William are well enough in, but
as they are backed for the Grand National, I am doubtful
whether they will make the trip to Slough. For the Rail-
way Plate I shall select the Premier.

He then went on to remark that the committee had, no
doubt, laid itself open to the inference, if not the accusation,
of net fully acting up to the minute of the last meeting,
with respect to entering at length into the past position of
the company, but after taking evidence to the extent at
1,200 folios, the committee had unanimously agreed to the
report just received. The object of greatest importance was
the obtaining means of completing the ship, and if the pro-
prietors went forward as a united body no difficulty would
be found, but the great thing to guard against was dis-
union. The proprietors trust select proper persons to manage
their affairs, and if the gentlemen recommended in the re-
port, or any other number of gentlemen was determined
upon, he well knew they would have no bed of roses. The
committee had come to the conclusion that the ship could
be completed for a sum of £30,000, and they did not think
that their great experiment should be allowed to languish
for so small a sum. After the ship had been completed,
the *ex t question would be how was she to be
employed. The committee had come to the conclusion that
after she was completed the first, or experimental trip,
should be to America—(hear, hear)—but the ultimate de-
cision as to the station of the great ship would be
left to others to decide. Before he resumed his seat he
must allude to the gentlemen who had for some time past
directed the affairs of the company —(hear, hear)--and he
was happy to state that no dishonourable imputation could
rest upon them. (Hear, hear.) They had thrown 110 diffi-
culty in the way of the committee, hut, on the contrary, all
seemed to have been animated with but one desire—the
success of the company. (Hear, hear.) He would there-
fore resume his seat by simply moving the adoption of the
report.

The movements in the turf market have not been charac-
terized by much importance, for, although the reporters
have been enabled to compile long lists of quotations, yet
they have been compelled to acknowledge that a large ma-
jority of the outlays have been very insignificant. Long-
range maintains his position in the Chester Cup betting,
and he is entitled to it. With the exception of him and
Promised Land I have no very exalted notion of the
animals that occupy the foremost places in the list of quo-
tations. Viatka was generally pronounced a " good
thing," when the weights were first published, but
she has not been supported with sufficient spirit to induce
me to entertain that belief. Satellite had some reputation
last year, and it is now said that he will prove himself
worthy of it. The Brewer and Tame Deer have no attrac-
tions for me. Rattlebone has wintered well, and Mr. T.
Parr may trust him with his money. Herne, at 6st 101 b,
must not be slighted. Bastion is game to the back bone,
and will run well, but I do not think him good enough to
win. The Squire is certainly turned loose, and must show
in front. Amongst the three-year-olds Rising Sun should
certainly receive some attention. From William Day's for-
midable team, Bye Ways may lead the way to success. These
are, however, merely a few random notes which I have
jotted down in the order in which they were suggested to
me.

For THE CITY AND SUBURBAN, Nucleus, Fitz-Roland
Paleface, and Croquemetaine are most to my fancy.

THE METROPOLITAN is somewhat puzzling, for I
scarcely know how to make a selection. Of the top weights
Newcastle and Magnum are most to my liking ; and of the
three-yrs-olds I have a decided preference for Paleface.
I have merely briefly referred to the leading handicaps, but
there is ample time to enter into an elaborate discussion of
them.

The only material change which has been made of late
in the Derby betting has been the deprivation of Umpire of
the premiership by Mainstone and the retrogression of
13ticcaneer. More important movements will, however, it
is expected, be made in a few days.

A FRESH MAN.

Leamington, Feb. 6.

THE SUNDAY TIMES' RACING RECORD.—The success
which we predicted for this little work when it was first
established has been fully realised, for it is now the recog-
nised turf handbook, and is in the possession of all racing
men. The sixth weekly part is now beforo us and an enu-
meration of its contents will at once shew the value of the
work. It contains a list of races to come, a record of races
past from the Ist January, up to and inclusive of the Abeys-
worth Steeple Chases, a programme of Slough Steeple
Chases, the acceptances for the leading spring handicaps,
with owners and trainers names attached ; a comparative
table of the acceptances alphabetically arranged, and
a most invaluable tabular list of betting from which,
at a glance, the most recent changes in the market
can be seen. In addition to these features the book
contains many items of intelligence ; it is neatly printed, of
a convenient size, and its cheapness must command for it a
large and deserved circulation.

Mr. JACKSON said, before the motion for the adoption of
the report was agreed to, he should like to know whether
such a step would imply the election of the gentlemen men-
tioned therein as directors.

Mr. NICHOLSON, one of the committee of investigation,
seconded the report.

Mr. JACKSON repeated his question.
Mr. BAKER—Certainly not.
_ _ _ _

Mr. MALtits complained of the publication in the news-
papers of the report of Llcyd's surveyor, which was never
meant to be made public, but was intended solely for the
consideration of the directors. One of the main questions
to be considered was whether the ship was a good one or
not ? (Hear.) The former efforts of Mr. Brunel—the Great
Britain—which stood the whole of a winter on the sands of
Dundrum Bay, and then came off nearly uninjured,
spoke much in favour of the Great Eastern, Then,
with respect to regaining the confidence of the pub-
lic, it was of the highest importance that such should
be regained as speedily as possible, and he thought the
best way to do that was to engage the highest naval autho-
rity in the world—the surveyor of the British navy, Sir
Baldwin Walker—and let hint say whether the ship was
fit to go to sea complete in every respect or not. (Hear,
and cheers) The first trip of the ship should be to
America. That was a thing easily managed, but
the permanent station ought to be one for a long
voyage. The ultimate destination° I the ship ought to be
India, and the experiments that had been made proved
she could perform the voyage in 40 days; and if that could
be done by one ship, why not by more ? That which was
now called the overland route would fall into disuse, and
England would be rendered independent of the whole world
in her communication with her Indian empire. (Cheers.)
Ile was of opinion that the ship was a good one—(hear,
hear)—and-that with prudent management she would prove
successful. (Cheers.)

The Chairman was then about to put the adoption of the
report, when

Mr. TAYLOR entered into a statement of the: cause that
had led him to agree to the report, which was the import-
ance of unanimity. There were many things the committee
had learned that would be interesting to the meeting to
