HONESTY !—Many
not take a Parse, yet who would
steal what is of far higher
value Ind Importance. An instance has just reached us,
where a firm of long standin;:,, Messrs. Rowland and Sons
have acquired a high reput.tton —a " good name," in short,
for the value of those articles which they have discovered
and prepared for the toilet. Learning the reputation which
attached to Messrs. Rowlands' productions, some shop-
keepers of SMALL repute, by a new and denicable species
of trend, have concocted some trashy articles,' and coolly
enthavour to pass them ofT as "Macassar," " Kalydor," and
" Odonto," though a glance at the signature, %tide!' is not
that of Messrs. A. Rowland and Sons, at once convinces the
purchaser that he is buying not the real production, but a
,purious and trashy imitation. We forbear mentioning the
names of parties, in the hope that the hint just given will
prevent a repetition of practices so injurious and unjust.

THE REFORM BILL

Mr. SYNAN asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether he proposed retaining and moving in committee
on the Representation of the People Bill the clause for tho
use of voting papers.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he did
intend to proceed with the clause, and he hoped it would
be adopted ; and he hoped it would also be adopted in
Ireland, as it was a country in which it would,
work very advantageously. (Loud laughter.)

whose favour Mr. Hodgson has consented to with-
draw. The canvas of both these gentlemen is rapidly

LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER.—Tats DAY.
A meeting of the shareholders of this company
was held at the board-room, Victoria Station, this
day. Lord Harris occupied the chair, and stated
that this was a meeting adjourned from one held
on the 25th February until the present date, the 30th
April. It was now proposed that in consequence
of the company having a bill coming before Par-
liament, and advertisements to that effect having
appeared in the newspapers, that there should be
a further adjournment made till the 17th of June
next.

A SHAREHOLDER asked whether it was contem-
plated, as was usual, that there should be a
•\Vharncliffe meeting in the meantime.
The CHAIRMAN replied that there would not be.
Another Shareholder, who described himself as a
lawyer, stated that until the whole of the shares had
been paid up the company ought not to have taken
down a single house, and they were obtaining them
under false pretences then they did so.
The adjournment was then agreed to, and the
meeting broke up.

IRISH LAW APPOINTMENTS.

•
Lord DUNKELLIN asked 11r. Attorney-General for
Ireland whether, with regard to the vacant mastership of
the Court of Exchequer, it was intended to adopt the re-
commendation of the Royal Commission on the Courts of
Common Law and Equity, who in their second report
stated that one master was sufficient for the three law
courts.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for Ireland said no de-
finite determination had yet been come to. The matter
was still under consideration.

EDUCATION.

Mr. COGAN asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland
whether it was the fact, as reported in the newsplpors,
that the Solicitor-General for Ireland, at a meeting of the
Church Education Society held in Dublin on the 10th of
April, proposed a resolution, which he stated "expressed
the positive principles of the Church Education Society as
a scriptural institution, and also its position as an antago-
nist of the national system ;" and, whether the Govern-
ment participate in this condemnation of the National sys-
tem of Education as compared with that of the Church
Education Society, and intended to propose any alterations
in it with a view to substitute in its steads system of edu -
cation founded on the principles of the Church Education
Society. _ _

Lord NAAS said in the speech of his right hon. friend
referred to there was no condemnation of the National
system, and With respect to the last part of •the inquiry,
the Government had no intention to make any alteration
ip the national system.

ANT WERP AND ROTTERDAM.

The report of the directors states that they in.
tended to declare a dividend of 14f. per share, or
£5 12s. per cent. The cholera, the war, and the
reduction of the tariffs, which had been injurious to
the lines of the State and to the greater part of the
conceded lines, had likewise exercised their depres-
sing influence on the company's undertaking. The
cholera, which raged for a few months only in
Belgium, continued during the whole season for
excursion travelling in Holland. The transport of
cattle from Holland towards Belgium and France,
au important element of their traffic, had entirely
ceased. Notwithstanding those troubles the Great
Central Company's receipts, which in 1865
amounted to 1245,184, reached in 1866 to £349,910,
showing an increase of £4,726. The Antwerp and
Rotterdam Company's share in the profits of work-
ing the Great Central undertaking amounted in
1865 to £54,290, and in 1866 to £66,165, showing
an increase of £11,875. But the profit pertaining
to the shares had only exceeded that of 1865 by
£4,813, owing to the, expenses being greater in
1866 than iu 1865. Iu 1865 the line from Ant-
werp to Hasselt not having been entirely worked
during the whole year they were not compelled to
pay the full rental. In 1856 this rent reached its
maximum, which :accounted for the net profit not
being greater. To raise the dividend to 14f. in
1865 they were obliged to take £2,399 from the
reserve fund, but in 1866 the regular profits of
working alone were sufficient to fix the dividend at
that figure. Owing to financial matters it was
proposed that the date of paying the 14f. per share
dividend for the past year should be fixed by the
directors. -

We are glad to see that Austria has decided on
adhering to the Money Convention between France,
Belgium, Italy, and Switzerland. This will liar'
monise the coins in use, of the most important
countries on the Northern shores of the Mediter-
ranean, and give to the convention a commanding
power in Europe. A committee of Austrian bankers
and employe's has been engaged for a fortnight ill
discussing the currency, and has agreed to and issue
its report. The Austrian florin, adopted in 1858
is divided into a hundred neukreutzer, and is eq"
to two shillings, or 21 francs. The committee pro:
pose the adoption of a gold standard ; the via
pieces to be of the of 10 and 4 florins, equal
to 25 and 10 francs. The silver pieces in harmony
with the gold pieces are to be of 2 florins, 1 florin,
and 40 neukreutzer. The 40-neukreutzer piece is
of the exact value of 1 franc ; the florin, therefore,
is equal to 2/ francs, and the 2 florins to 5 franesi
This is a great step in the right direction, and
Austria has shown her wisdom in so promptly, and
of her own accord, coming in to this convention.

GREAT SOUTHERN OF INDIA.

The report of the directors states that, exclusive
of the exceptionable receipts derived from the car-
riage of railway materials, the gross traffic in 1866
amounted to £38,066, and to £30,953 in 1865,
showing an increase of £7,113, or 23 per cent. This
increase would have been augmented by the reduc-
tion in the consumption of fuel per mile run from
40.51 b. in 1865 to 30.61 b. in 1866, had it not been
for the enhanced cost of coal in the latter year. The
directors regretted that no progress had as yet been
made in providing the roads necessary as feeders to
the different stations on the line. With respect to
the second-class passenger traffic, which during the
year 1866 yielded only one per cent. of the total
number carried, and contributed only 3 per cent.
to the gross amount of the passenger receipts, the
directors had, with the sanction of the Govern-
ment, confined the classes to two. This alteration,
which came into operation on the Ist of March,
would, it was expected, redneehe. expenditure, And
add to the receipts. The line from Trichinopoly.
to Caroor, 477 miles in length, was opened for
traffic on the 3d of December last, and the engineer-
in-chief expected that the junction with the Madras
at Erode would be effected by September next.
The total receipts for the year 1866 amounted to
£45,582, or 4s. 101 d. per train mile, and for the
year 1865 to £35,236, or ss. 2d. per train mile,
showing an increase of £10,346. The net revenue
in 1866 amounted to £24,694, and in 1865 to
£17,785, showing an increase of £6,909. The ex-
penditure amounted to £20,887, or 45.82 per cent.
in 1866, and for 1865 to £17,451, or 49.52 per cent.
The Secretary of State having recently aut2lo7ooisedo

CAPE TOWN.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
on Friday, at the London Tavern ; Mr. 11. Watson
in the chair.
The report, an abstract of which has appeared in
The Sun, was taken as read.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, con-
gratulated the shareholders on the efficient and safe
working of the line. Notwithstandiiag the de-
pression of trade, there had been a small increase
in the receipts, accompanied by a decrease in the
working expenses of £1,500. The directors had
ordered about a mile of patent iron sleeperi to be
sent out to the colony with a view to test their utility
on the railway. The balance of revenue applicable
to dividend was £9,831, out of which they recom-
mended a dividend at the rate of 31 per cent. per
annum. The directors were promoting a bill in
Parliament to authorise them to issue so many of
the unappropriated shares in the form of 6 per cent.
preferences shares as would be Sufficient to pay off
the temporary loans amounting to about £30,000.
The bill also would give power to the company to
contract with the colonial Government for the con-
struction of railways from Maltuesbury to Wor-
cester, the capital and other accounts of those lines
being kept distinct from the capital, &c., of the
Cape Town Railway.
Mr. L. BROWN seconded the motion for the adop-
tion of the report, which after some discussion was
adopted, and a dividend of 31 per cent. per annum,
free of income-tax, was declared for the past half-
year.
On the motion of Mr. DE SALTS, seconded by
KIMBER, a resolution was passed to the effect that
a committee be appointed to consult with the direc-
tors as to the best steps to be tAken to induce the
Cape Government to extend the railway system into
the interior of the colony; and it was agreed that
the committee consist of Colonel Sale, Mr. De Salis,
and Mr. Kimber.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks
to the chairman and directors.
