the division of English and Scotch traffic of former
years, the directors had for some months deducted
£2OO per week from the traffic, and it was proposed
to continue this rate of deduction until the balance
(127,288) was extinguished. The county and parLh
rate had increased under the operation of the Lands
Valua,t;on (Scotland), and the local acts depending
upon it for their basis of assessment. The Parlia-
mentary expenses of last Session were unusually
large, and the directors believed they were justified
in charging a portion only against the revenue of
this half-year, leaving two-thirds to be borne by
the accounts of succeeding half-years, in which
there was good reason to hope that those expenses
would be comparatively small. Notwithstanding
the extraordinrry state of the money-market during
the greater part of the half-year, the company had
been able to obtain loans exceeding £400,000 on
reasonable terms, 4i per cent. being the bighestrate
given. The average rate on the outstanding mort-
gage debt was £4 3s. 4id. per cent. By agreement
with the North British Company the field of
Parliamentary contest in the present session had
been greatly narrowed. The agreement of February,
1866,1 intended to admit of fair competition between
certain points common to both companies, had been
but imperfectly observed, and a large amount of
traffic had been carried at unreasonably low rates.
The directors hoped, however, that better relations
for the permanent advantage of both undertakings
might yet be established. The expenditure of
capital during the half-year amounted to £614,791.
The bridges and other works on the Scottish North-
Eastern line would involve considerable outlay, and
the cost was considered in estimating the value of
the line to the Caledonian, and the expenditure
would be spread over a series of years. The
capital account showed that £19,424,488 had been
expended. The revenue account for the half-year
ending the 31st Jan. showed that £860,369 bad
been received from all sources, and £369,541 ex-
pended, leaving a balance of £490,828.

MONMOUTHSHIRE.
The half-yearly meeting was held yesterday at
the offices, Newport ; Mr. Crawshay Ball, M.P.,
in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the re-
report, an abstract of which has appeared in 71e
Sun. He stated that the half-year which they had
just passed through was one of unparalleled de-
pression ; all branches of trade having suffered
severely, and hence the decrease in the traffic, and
also in the dividend. The Sirhowy Bill which they
had intended to oppose had been withdrawn, and a
committee of the board had been appointed to wait
upon the directors of the Sirhowy in order to see
whether they could arrange terms for either work-
ing or leasing that line.
Mr. CAnTwmGur reiterated his former opinion
that the £61,000 which they had paid for the
Brecon canal might as well have been thrown
away, for they would never see any return on
it. As to the traffic on the railway for the half-
year it was in every respect satisfactory, and un-
der all the circumstances they could not complain
of a dividend at the rate of 5i per cent. per annum.
The increase in the general merchandise traffic
might, be thought, be avoided by a revision of tolls
and a proper arrangement with the steam-packet
companies. It was gratifying to find that the
Sirhowy Bill had been withdrawn, and he hoped
that the negotiations contemplated would lead to
the acquiring of that line by the Monmouthshire.
He recommended the closing of the suspense ac-
counts, and as to the debentures he had no doubt
that the senseless alarm which seemed to have
taken hold of those who invested their money in
such securities would soon pass away.
Mr. BATCHELOR supported Mr. Cartwright's
viowo, and ho rraggPvtad that if a favnurahle op-
portunity presented itself an attempt should be
again made to secure the old Romney line.
Mr. LLEWELLIN advised a little more conciliation
towards the Shirhowy Company.
Mr. LINE condemned the course taken by the
Board in attempting to enforce an extra ld. per
ton on certain dock traffic.
The CHAIRMAN, in reply, maintained that the
interests of the company were served by the Bre-
con canal purchase. He looked with confidence to
the future of their property ; they had a vast
mineral wealth in the hills, and in time it must be
brought down over their line to Newport for ship-
ment.
The report was then adopted, and a dividend at
the rate of 5 per cent. per annum (less income-
tax) was declared for the half-year.
The retiring directors, Lord Tredegar, Mr. Craw-
shay Bailey, M.P., Mr. Octavius Morgan, M.P.,
and Mr. Gratrex, were re-elected.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the
proceedings.

£33,803. The profits of the line for the past half-
year amounted to £31,588, but after paying the
interest on debentures was 0n1y£23,018 ; sufficient
to pay a dividend at the rate of SI pr cent. per
annum, and leave a balance of £293.

CENTRAL ARGENTINE (LIMITED). 1
The report of the directors states that £818,845
had been received ou the £50,000 shares of the
company, and £870,411 expended. The balance of
£52,919 against the company had been provided for
by the call of £2 per share. Notwithstanding the
late uuexamp:ed monetary crisis, the balance re-
maining unpaid on the company's shares amounted
in the aggregate to £9,915 only, being about 1 per
cent. of the whole of the capital called up to the
present time, £925,000. The capital of the com-
pany was £1,600,000, dividend into 80,000 shares
of £2O each, of which £1,000,000 had been sub-
scribed. In consequence of the disastrous crisis
through which the commercial world had passed
and its effects, the directors had deemed it prudent
to defer raising the £600,000 necessary for the com-
pletion of the railway and works. The report
called attention to the Government decree, dated
Dec. 1 last, for receiving and opening the two sec-
tions of the line from the city of Rosario to Frayle
Muerto for passenger and cargo traffic in accordance
with the stipulations in the contract, by which the
guarantee of 7 per cent. upon the capital expended
in respect of tho3e sections would come into operation,
and it was confidently expected that a further sec-
tion of 36 miles would be completed in the month
of June next. The railway would then reach to Villa
Nueva, 158 miles from Rosario, which would largely
1 increase the business and earnings, leaving a dis-
tance of about 80 miles only to complete the entire
'1 line to the city of Cordova.

Sunday Liquor Traffic.

Mr. Walpole received a deputation in a Com-
mittee-room of the House of Commons on
Thursday evening, consisting of Archbishop Man-
ning, Rev. John Garrett, D.D., Mr. Henry Wig-
ham, from Dublin, and Mr. J. P. Corry, J.P., with
Mr. Robert Lindsey, J.P., from Belfast. The de-
putation was introduced by Dr. Garrett, and ac-
companied by Mr. Bazley, M.P. ; Mr. B. Whit-
worth, M.P.; Mr. Blake, M.P.; and Mr. Sy nan , M.P.
Dr. GARRETT explained that the number present
might have been greatly increased but for anuim ill-
inguess to trouble Mr. Walpole any more than was
necessary at so busy a moment, pointing out that
very large interests were represented from all districts
of the country, and of all parties in religious thought,
so that a very remarkable unanimity of opinion
prevailed upon the subject, in which the deputation
wished to receive the assistance of the Government.
He then stated that two bills were prepared to be
introduced into the House of Cominons, by Mr.
John Abel Smith for England and Wales, and by
Major O'Reilly for Ireland, by which it would be
proposed to further regulate the sale of intoxicating
liquors on Sunday, placing the law in both countries
on exactly the same footing. The principle of the
new bills would be the stopping of the sale all over
the country for consumption on the premises during
the whole of Sunday. This being effected there
would be two exemptions from the operations of the
proposed law :-1. Sale for consumption off the
premises may continue between the hours of 1 and
half-past 2, and between 8 and 9; 2. Bona fide
eating-houses will be exempted from the extended
zestrictions. The new bills had been prepared under
the most eminent legal advice, and leading mem-
bers of both houses of Parliament had expressed
readiness to support them, as the provisions would
remedy calamitous injuries at present known to exist
among the people, while no necessary or reasonable
accommodation would be interfered with.
Archbishop MANNING, as the chief pastor of the
poorest portion of the population, heartily supported
the statements made by Dr. Garrett, and earnestly
hoped the chief secretary would assist in passing the
proposed bills into law as speedily as possible. lie
set forth the deep and increasing injuries which have
been growing among the people from the vast ma-
chinery in operation to tempt the men
domesticawayfrtoimes
their homes, and to separate them from
during that day of rest on which
families ought to
mi
be most united, and he expressed his deliberate
opinion that, if the existing abuse of the public-
house and beerhouse system should be allowed to
continue its baneful effects on Sunday, before long
a permanent destruction of home ties must result
among that mass of the people where such ties are
most highly valuable. Dr. Manning alto urged
that the existing system was too powerful to be met
by all the religious and moral influence which the
combined efforts of Christian institutions can exer-
cise, and he felt satisfied the exemptions in the pro-
posed bills were wisely prepared and were sufficient
to meet every reasonable want of any class of the
population.

in the proposed bills would

to a favourable reception in the House of C ominous,
and that he did not anticipate any op

Mr. BLAKE, and Mr. SYNAN, M.P., stated
that in Ireland the public mind is quite prepared for
a stronger measure then what is now proposed ; but
they quite agreed that it was the right course to
make the law the same in both countries.

Mr. WIGISAM, from Dublin, and Mr. LINDSEY,

Mr. WALPOLE assured the deputation that, per-
sonally, he quite agreed with them, but should con-
sult the other members of the Government before
he promised to advocate the proposed legislation, to
ascertain whether the Cabinet would agree to give
the measure united support. He expressed his ap-
