NORTH BRITISH.

A meeting of preference shareholders in this com-
pany was held on Thursday at Glasgow—Mr. Stir-
ling in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN explained that the new board of
directors elected last autumn had the financial posi-
tion of the company under their consideration, and,
acting on the best advice they could obtain, had de-
IPosited a bill authorising the creation of £1,875,000
of preference stock, coining after the debenture debt,
but before all existing preferences. This, they
thought, was the only means that would enable them
to meet their pressing liabilities and to put the line in
fair working order. He fully sympathised with the
Edinburgh and Glasgow and the Monklauds share-
holders, whose stocks stood at the bottom of the
list of preferences. He quite admitted that their
case was a very hard one. lie was certain that the
best thing that shareholders could do was to adopt
the directors' proposal. Without taking a very
sanguine view of affairs, he thought if they once
had the requisite funds to meet their present liabi-
lities, before very long they should be able to pay
all their preference .shareholders. If, on the other
hand, they failed in getting the money, he did not
see his way to the Edinburgh and Glasgow share-
holders getting a dividend for many years to come.

Mr. JAMES WHITE then moved a formal resolu-
tion to the effect that, having considered the North
British Carlisle Deviation Bill, the meeting con-
sented to the creation and issuing of pre-preference
stock to the extent of £1,875,625, entitled to a fixed
dividend not exceeding 51 per cent. per annum.
Mr. P. CLONSTON seconded the motion, which
was carried all but unanimously. It was also re-
solved that a committee be appointed to co-operate
with the directors in promoting the bill.

The leading country markets held on Saturday were
firm for fine dry wheats on higher terms. Inferior parcels
however, were a slow inqury. Barley, malt, oats, beans,,

ing. The American grain markets have ruled havy.
Tho supply of English wheat on sale hero to-day was
very moderate, while the condition of the produce was
poor. The trade for all qualities was very inactive, even
good and fine dry samples being in slow request. In prices,
as compared with Monday last, no quotable change took
place.

The amount of business transacted was very moderate.
Prices, on the whole, ruled firm.

was a slight improvement in the demand, and last week's
currency was fully supported.
Tho malt trade ruled heavy at about stationary prices.
The supply of oats on sale was very moderate. The
trade for all qualities ruled firm, and late rates were fully
maintained.

The directors state in their report that the traffic
receipts cf the company's line for the half-year end-
ing the 31st of December last amounted to £91,412
for passengers, to £51,108 for goods and minerals,
and to £2,289 for live stock—total, £144,809,
against £109,785 in the corresponding half of 1865,
showing an increase of £35,024, of which £30,835
was for passengers, £4,016 for merchandise and
minerals, and £173 for live stock. The passenger
traffic included the receipts for six months on the
City Extension line, as against two months only in
the same half of 1865. The working expenses
showed considerable increase, but the general re-
sult, after payment of debenture interest, was
an available balance of £59,032. The holders
of the preference stock were entitled on the pre-
sent occasion to share rateably the net receipts

over and above the sum required to pay a divi-
dend at the rate of 51 per cent. on the ordinary
share capital. The directors, therefore, recom-
mended the declaration on the preference stock
of 21 per cent. (making for the 12 months 41 per
cent.), and on the ordinary stock and share capital
21 per cent. (making for the year 51- per cent), leav-
ing a balance of £557. The directors deemed it
desirable to make provision for two additional lines
of rails between Camden and Kingsland, instead of
one line as originally contemplated. The capital
account showed that £2,890,808 had been expended.
The revenue acecount for the half-year showed that
£154,711 had been received, and £89,103 expended,
leaving £65,608.

THE PRINCE OF WALES.

The Prince of Wales rode out on horseback on
Saturday, attended by Major Teesdale.

The Prince of Wales attended divine service at
the Chapel Royal, St. James's, yesterday morning.
The Communion Service was read by the Rev.
Thomas Helmere and Rev. W. H. Brookfield.

Anthem, " Sing we merrily (Crotch). Sung by
Masters Wood and Coward, Messrs. R. Barnbh
Benson, and Winn.

Mr. Cooper presided at the organ.
The sermon was preached by the Rev. W. IL
Brookfield from Ist Cor., ix. 25.

Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Cambridge
and Princess Mary (Princess of Teck) attended the
service.

ILLNESS OF THE PRINCESS OF WALES.
Some alarm was created at Windsor on Saturday
in consequence of the Prince of Wales, who had
visited Windsor on Friday and had slept at the
Castle, being hastily summoned to town. A special
train was immediately ordered, and his royal high-
ness reached Marlborough House without delay.
The rumour was, that the Princess of Wales had
been suddenly taken very ill. Unfortunately this
rumour is not without foundation, for last night
a communication was received from Gen. linollya
authorising us to state that " Her Royal High-
ness the Princess of Wales has been suffering for
several days from acute rheumatism, but that there
is no symptom to cause any anxiety."
London, England, 1867-02-18

faith, and that, whether oil the banks of the Thames
or of the Mississippi, whether in Scotland or in
Canada, in India or Australia, or on the coasts of
Africa—wherever, in short, there is an English or
American population of settlement—there are those
who belong to the same spiritual family, as they
spring from the same natural stock, and who will,
therefore, be alike thankful for the opportunity,
should they visit Paris during the Exhibition of
meeting as brethren in the same house of prayer
and praise.
I may add that the proposed church will be either •
of iron or wood, capable of holding from 800 to
1,000 people, and that the cost will be something
over £l,OOO, and at the most under £2,000, accord-
ing to the sum placed at the disposal of the com-
mittee. Immediate subscriptions are earnestly
requested, and will be received by any of the
following bankers :—At Paris, by John Monroe and
Co., Edward Blount and Co., and Hottingen and
Co. ; at New York, by llunca,n F. Sherman and

The Whale Fishery.

Some interesting details are given in the New
Bedford Standard of the whale fishery and the
oil trade :

" The Atlantic fleet the past year consisted of
150 vessels, 42 of which were from Provincetown.
The catch by the fleet was 20,164 barrels sperm
oil, 4,000 barrels of which was taken in the South
Atlantic. During the coming year the Atlantic
fleet will number about 145 vessels, besides the
homeward-bound fleet from the Pacific. The
North Pacific whaling fleet numbered 106 vessels
the past season, against 94 in 1865. The weather
was generally good, and the season's fishing has
been moderately successful. Only two of the fleet
have been lost, one going ashore in a gale, and the
other being abandoned in consequence of a
collision with another vessel. Eighty-five of
the fleet had completed the season's cruise
at our latest advices, with an average catch
of 612 barrels of oil ; 66 vessels in the
Arctic averaging 607 barrels, 12 vessels in the
Ochotsk averaging 630 barrels, and 7 vessels at
Kodiak averaging 627 barrels. The latest reports
from the other vessels average about 500 barrels.
The season's catch is about 65,000 barrels, against
50,000 barrels in 1865. The North Pacific fleet
next season will be about 110 vessels, of which 92
will belong on this side, the rest being fitted at San
Francisco and Honolulu. Only about 15 of the
fleet are to come home in 1867, and only 10 arrived
home from the North Pacific Ocean the past year.
The Hudson's Bay and Cumberland Inlet fisheries
have been comparatively unproductive, though some
few vessels have done well. New London merchants
still continue to prosecute the Desolation and
Hurd's Island fishery, keeping gangs of men there
for the purpose. The sperm whale fishery will be
more vigorously prosecuted the coming year, as be-
sides the Atlantic fleet, the number of vessels in the
Indian Ocean will number 21 vessels against 13 the
past year, and in the Pacific, on the west coast of
South America, Gallipagos Islands, &c., will be 23
vessels against 7 the past year, and in the vicinity
of New Zealand 6 vessels against 3.
" During the year the exports to foreign countries
have been 9,200 barrels sperm oil, 1,540 barrels
whale oil, and 525,950 pounds of whalebone, against
20,558 barrels sperm oil, 1,660 barrels whale oil,
and 202,100 pounds of bone in 1865. To show how
the exports have fallen off in the last few years it
will be necessary to state that in 1861 there was ex-
ported 37,547 barrels sperm oil, 49,969 barrels whale
oil, and 1,145,013 pounds bone ; in 1862 there were
exported 27,976 barrels sperm oil, 68,583 barrels
whale oil, and 1,004,981 pounds of bone ; in 1863
there were exported 18,366 barrels sperm oil,
11,297 barrels whale oil, and 279,394 pounds bone ;
and in 1864 there were exported 45,000 barrels

EOLITH DEVON.

The directors of this company state in their report
that the gross revenue for the half-year ended the
31st December last had been £122,395, as compared
with £123,651 for the corresponding half of 1865,
when the company's receipts were exceptionally in-
creased by the Royal Agricultural Society's- meeting
at Plymouth. From this cause, and also in conse-
quence of unfavourable weather and the depressed
condition of trade, the revenue of the past half-year
showed a small comparative decrease. The gross
revenue of the whole year was £231,567, as com-
pared with £225,172 in 1865. The directors were
happy to show a reduction of working expenses from
50.75 per cent. to 42.51 per cent. of the gross re-
ceipts. The revenue account showed a disposable
balance of £13,856, and after providing for pre-
ference and other charges the payment of a dividend
was recommended at the rate of £3 10s. per cent.
per annum on the ordinary stock, leaving a balance
of £837. The united wilking locomotive purposes
of the South Devon, the Cornwall, and West Corn-
wall Railways with their own stock had produced
satisfactory results, and a large saving had been
effected in that department. The opening of the
Moretonhampstead Railway had added 12+ miles to
the length of railway worked, but the total train
mileage, which was £311,073 miles during the six
months ended December, 1865, was reduced to
331,127 miles in the past half-year. The return

made by this company under the Railway Companies
Securities Act, 1866, showed that the total debenture
debt to the 31st of December last was £667,590,
and that the total exercisable borrowing powers
amounted to £668,966. The interest payable on the
former sum was £30,246 per annum, and the net
income of the company on which that interest was
a first charge was, for the year 1866, £119,676. Of
the total debenture debt, £176,020 fell due last year,
and the interest then agreed to be paid (44 and 5 per
cent.) placed the average rate of interest at 4.54
per cent. per annum on the whole debt. The com-
pany required to issue £200,000 of the perpetual
5 per cent. preference shares, in order to adjust
capital to liabilities, the greater portion of this sum
being required to pay for engines and carriage and
waggon stock. After payment of all the company's
fixed charges, the holders of the £200,000 would at
present have a clear margin of more than £50,000
a year to meet their interest. The capital account
showed that £2,844,601 has been expended, in-
cluding £134,429 during the past half-year.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The University Boat Race.

OXFORD, Saturday.
Since our last published list of the Oxford crew Mr. F.
Crowder, of Brasenose, who rowed No. 2 last year, has
taken his seat in the boat, which, with Messrs. Willan and
Wood, gives the crew the advantage of three of the old
haeds. Mr. Willan, of Exeter (the president), has taken
No. 3, and Mr. Wood, of University, has been enabled to
row at the same time in the boat, by Mr. Brown lending
his valuable aid in "coaching" the crew ; thus some of the
difficulties under which the president until recently
laboured have been removed, and with the continuance of
such assistance he and Mr. Wood may both remain at their
oars Tho Cambridge men still keep shifting, and, under
such circumstances, cannot be expected to make very rapid
progress. They are stated, although fine men, to be lighter
than the Oxonians, who are a most powerful and heavy
crew, averaging throughout 12st 31b per man.
Tho race will, in all probability, be rowed on Saturday,
the 13th of April, three weeks later than last year, over
the usual course, from Putney to Mortlake.

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST FENIANS AT WOOLWICH'.
—ln consequence of information received on Satur-
day night, the precise nature of which is not known to the
general public, the most active and complete measures were
taken by the commandant of the garrison and other autho-
rities, and were continued during yesterday, to meet any
attempted Fenian outbreak which it was strongly rumoured
was to take place, and the programme of which was stated
to include the seizure of arms and ammunition at the drill
establishment of the Blackheath and other local volunteer
corps. It is to be presumed that considerable importance
was attached to the rumour, as a detachment of Royal
Artillery and the Military Train Corps wore despatched to
Blackheath on Saturday night, and were engaged yesterday
in the removal of arms, &c., belonging to the volunteers to
rios

rise with regard to the royal arsenal and dockyard police
force. As might be expected, the strangest rumours were
afloat during yesterday, none of which were realised.

The Vo'unteers and the Belgians.

Early as it is in the year the Executive Committee
of the Volunteers who visited Brussels last year is
already making preparations to receive the Belgian
visitors, who will number, it is said, some 2,000.
They will be under very distinguished command, it
is believed, the Belgians desiring that his Royal
Highness the Comte de Flandres should lead them
across the strait. A meeting of the Volunteer Com-
mittee was held a few days since, under the presi-
denhy of Viscount Bury. It was then determined
to organise a Middlesex committee, to act with
committees of other counties, and a long programme
of the entertainments proposed was drawn out. As
This is to be a national reception, in return for the
reception given by the Belgian nation to Volunteers
from every part of the country, it was resolved to
appeal to the country at large in aid of the large
fund required in the metropolis, where the Belgians
will remain principally during their brief sojourn in
this country. There will be special prizes given to
them to shoot for at Wimbledon ; but what they
desire, as stated in their organs of sport, is to com-
pete with the English. There is a difficulty in this,
as the "All-comers' prizes" at Wimbledon are not
shot for as "All-comers" prizes are abroad—namely,
with military sighted rifles; and there is no mean, in
the Wimbledon competition, between the Enfield
and the expensive rifles, with costly sights and
costly ammunition, which characterise the small-
bore competitions open to " All" who, under
this system, have been very few " comers."
The restriction of these competitions to mili-
tary sighted weapons would encourage all classes to
enter, and would open a way for all nations to mea-
sure their skill with weapons which could be used in
the field. This point is worth noticing, as the Bel-
gians will visit Wimbledon with the view of shoot-
ing against the English as the English shot against
them in the Tir National—on equal terms as far as
sights were concerned. The fetes to the visitors are
expected to include a banquet at the Crystal Palace,
a banquet in the city, organised visits to the theatres
and other places of amusement in Loudon, and a
grand ball at the Agricultural-hall. Some counties
talk of organising special fetes, but except in those
places which lie upon the route between the coast
and London, there will be no time or opportunity
for the Belgians to be thus entertained. Experience
has shown that the greater body of them, the same
as the Volunteers themselves, cannot make a pro-
longed holiday, such as ylsit to places a long dis-

NEWMARKET.

The Heaths, and training grounds generally, have got
into beautiful condition, and horses have, owing to the
fine open weather, been enabled once more to get into good
work. Leybourne leads D'Estournel a mile and a quarter
gallop daily, and they are accompanied by Roquefort,
Ravioli, and Moleskin. Sealskin doing duty for tho re-
mainder of Gilbert's string. D'Estournet has wonderfully
improved, and is not only as sound as a roach, but is the
best Derby galloper in training at Newmarket. The
Hermit is merely trotting and cantering about, and there
is no hope of seeing the Two Thousand post, and perhaps
little bettor chance of his contesting the Derby. The Rake
improves in his action, but it is only when he has warmed
to his work that this is noticeable. We cannot perceive
any great change in Dragon, but he was always
a plain, unattractive horse. Jonning's, however,
gives him a good gallop regularly, and ho ac-
quits himself very creditably, Enchantour and Truce-
dero now being his companions. Pericles, Julius, Boni-
bastes, and Plying Scud, are in gentle work, and Knight
of the Garter is cantering again, but Pedagogue does little
beyond long walking and trotting exercise. Pyrenees and
Suffolk are the best of our early engaged two-year-olds.
Nike has cleaned out all Mat Dawsou's lot, barring Thu
Beadle. The latter and old Saccharometer are very lit for
Lincoln. "Sac" won a great trial with Panacea and
Kingsley on Thursday morning, upon which day also
Leases cantered away from Gretna and Nukuheva. Bis-
marck was put through the mill with the Landlord, and
got beaten, but the finish was so good that the stable be-
lieve in the policy of adhering to his Lincoln chance.
2roblem and Volunteer are exceedingly fit, particularly
the latter. Tormentor is bowling !don for Cheater, and
Dr. Syntax, too. Jollity is improving, and goes a mile

Sir J. ELPIIINSTONE Lid great

stress upon the importance of ships being able to

sail together, and excited the amusement of his
auditory by his criticism of the Bellerophon, which

he quaintly described as being " like a fine-looking

man with a pair of club feet ; the head and bow

upon her, which no sailor could have devised ; it
must have been designed by a ploughman rather
than a seaman." It certainly is a great dis-

grace to all concerned in our naval de-
partment during the last few years that
so inuch of the public money should have been
spent, and that so little really efficient work should
have resulted for the good of the service and the

real and true interests thereof. There is much, in-

deed, to engage the attention
.of the Government
just now in the consideration of our naval pros-

peels, and they will do well to pay heed to the ener-

The transactions to-day were of an important nature,
and the large assemblage of members, prior to their depar-
