r-Lhe subjoined relates to the London Chatham and
Dover Railway Company (Main Line and Western
Exrision
Capital)
The shareholders in these sections of the London Chat-
ham and Dover Railway being all but unrepresented in the
Present board, are urged without delay to form a commit-
tee
+is of their own to watch their interests in Parliament,
..`,3 Court of Chancery, and elsewhere, and obtain a better
:'are of representation on the board of directors, and par,
"eularly to assist in the serious further enquiries requisite
to be made, as shown by the report of the late committee
of •
'evestigation. The members of it should have a pre-
ilipg ibegntienrest in the Main Line Capital—the
etropolitan Extensions, City Lines, and Eastern
T
regarded as separate 'and distinct.
T, creation of £1,500,000 stock, "to take priority over
411 other stock and debentures, and to be a first charge on
til° wholeof the undertaking," will involve a new charge
t
475,000 a year, in addition to the £35,000 a year for the
jetftia-station improvements about to become chargeable
"Pon revenue which together represent an expenditure
LMore than one-half the net amount of earnings for the
awar ending 30th June last on the whole of the under-
to—Lngs• It will never do for the main line shareholders
Permit this expenditure of £1,500,000 to be entirely
tlinder the control of mere representatives of the metropo-
dtau extension or other sections, contributing little or
nothing to revenue. It appears to be the intention of the
to place the debentures o f the eastern section and
Y " lines on an equal footing with the main line deben-
ilti,reN and to provide for payment of two years' interest on
are "se equally with the others. These payments of interest
"PeCted to absorb aut L 300,000 out of the
—1,500,000. If trustees arebo: appointed to control the
expenditure of the portion for which this section
may become liable, it would appear to be very much in the
to of the bondholders secured on the main line capital
(° consent to the priority over them and the delayed pay-
kent of their principal sums. The creation of the deben-
ture stock conditionally and for purposes of conversion
Only would likewise be advantageous to them. The effort
to take the affairs of the company out of Chancery and to
ausliend litigation should certainly bo made, and might be
uccomplished if the new capital be obtained. The funds
t° be raised should be under the control of trustees for the
purposes and maintenance of the proportions assigned to
each section. The trustees should be selected from the
representative bodies of the several sections. But the
proposal .to make "all future" debentures and the deben-
Lure stock to be a charge pan/ passu on the whole of
a." 46 undertaking," would appear to be most objectionable,
of Why should new debentures, chargeable on the whole
t: Lae undertakings, be givento the holdersof Eastern Sec-
:" Debentures, who will be unable to contribute any re-
nue to the income of the company, their bonds being at
ere% .
, nz secured only on their particular undertaking. ? In-
13:test or Principal ought only to be paid out of their own
:ting capital undisposed of. No sanction should be
hope en to the Parliamentary scheme until the shareholders
under their consideration the scheme for amalgam-
,.,ll of the sections with the general undertaking therein
ete•••.. •
b., 'AIM to, It is impossible otherwise to understand the
I,are and extent of the powers sought to be obtained from
tiLartuainent for these purposes. A very serious and
tilting element in determining the questions
am ti
the , the shareholders at present arises from
met that the various Acts of Parliament confer powers
8 VC% the holders of the Metropolitan Extension and other
the to vote on all questions affecting the interests of
of° 'nein line shareholder; and it is understood that some
Slips finance companies, money lenders, and representa-
-1/4: of the estates of ruined speculators, are holders of
amounts, and that their support is pretty well as-
oF'd to the new board as representatives of those sections
eattlo undertaking; on the other hand, the main line
it 441 generally is in the name of bona fide holders, and
unite ca"les the more urgently necessary that they should
and ittld be represented equally with the debenture holders
other portions of the undertaking which have ad-
eit;t7 interests and voting powers. Besides tho watchful
revellecessary on the part of the main line
.shareholders in
bag tht.t° Parliamentary and Chancery proceedings affect-
bet interests, interests, there are most serious questions existing
Oryetall the main line and the Kent coast, Sevenoaks, and
etriet Palace and South London Thtilways, demanding

other appearing to be very much in the keeping, amongst

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Sittings in Nisi Prius, before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn
and a Special Jury.)

HUNTER V. SHARP-LIBEL.

The hearing of this case was resumed this morning, and
the following evidence in addition to that of the plaintiff,
which was concluded yesterday, was adduced.

Dr. Paterson said he resided in Cavendish-road, St.
John's-wood, and he bad consulting rooms in Welbeck-
street, and his only medical qualification was his diploma
from the College of Physicians, in New York, and he
had seen the diploma of Dr. Hunter.
Evidence was then given of the absence of a gentleman
named Leo Contorso being absent from the country, and
whose testimony was considered to bo material.
Dr. Henry Melville said he was a physician, and had
taken his degree at Edinburgh. lie knew Dr. Hunter at
New York iu 1853. Dr. Hunter's practice as consulting
phySician in pulmonary diseases was so large that he had
employed himself and other medical men to assist him.
He remained with Dr. Hunter until 1851, when he went to
Canada. He renewed his acquaintance with Dr. Hunter
in this country in 1864, and again assisted him in his prac-
tice. He was intimately acquainted with Dr. Hunter's
theory, and wrote the preface for the fifth edition of his
work. The medicines were the same as were found in
the ordinary pharmacopeia used by medical students, arid
consisted of stimulants, sedatives, and alteratives.
The Lord Chief Justice —This was a new theory, and
the question is whether this ingredient could be introduced
through the throat into the system of the patient by ordi-
nary men from the instructions in Dr. Hunter's book ?

Witness—His experience for 12 years showed him that
an ordinary practitioner could apply the ingredient with
out difficulty by inhalation. The theory of inhalation was
not a novel one, and was known to Hippocrates and Galen,
and practised by some eminent physicians of modern times.
The book of Dr. Hunter was quite intelligible to medical
practitioners, but perhaps, if he had written for medical
men only, he might have introduced this formula. The
book was intended as a popular exposition, and he consi-
dered that its principal merit was its being efficiently
systematised, as regarded the mode of inhalation, which
was a very delicate operation.
The Lord Chief Justice said that what he wanted to
know was whether .Dr. Hunter's book contained such in-
structions as would enable the ordinary practitioner to
treat a patient, according to the system of Dr. Hunter ?
Witness—He should certainly say so. Some medicines
could be more easily volatilised than others. Dr. Hunter's
theory was based on the practice of inhalation, as adopted
by some of the. most eminent physicians. Dr. Hunter
had a large practice in this country, and he was very suc-
cessful.

The Lord Chief Justice—Was the success on the part of
the physician or the patient? (Laughter.)
Witness—Certainly, the patient himself. He gene-
-rally saw the patient, and when that could not ho done he
and Dr. Hunter acted on the best information they could
obtain, and sometimes they acted on the diagnosis of the
disease as supplied by the patient himself. That was iu
conformity with the practice of the profession. The medi-
cines he used were furnished by Corbyn, were of the best
quality, and contained no ingredient that was not used by
the profession generally.
The case was again adjourned.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

A Political "Biffin."

The Scotsman of Monday contains the following
extraordinary comment upon the preference shown
by the electors of Wexford for Mr. Kavanagh, for-
whose sake Mr. Pope Hennessy was (to very gene-
ral regret) rejected. The House is certainly begin-
ning to number up its curiosities. It now com-
prises among its members an Albino of rhre genius,
both as an orator and as a statesman ! A Blind
philosopher (one physically blind, that is) in the
person of Professor Fawcett ! [Pity it could not
include a few Dumb members by way of variety !]
And now—to judge from this distressing article
copied by us from the Scotsman, it adds to the
number of its curiosities one only describable with
anything like terseness and accuracy as a Political
" Bitlin "

The return of an armless and legless man as the
Parliamentary representative of one of the greatest Irish
counties is an event worthy of more note than has been
bestowed upon it, both for what it is in itself and for what
it indicates or symbolises. It is a childish and unseemly
procedure, on the part both of electors and elected;-and,
in its political as well as its personal aspect, it is ono among
several recent proofs of the hopelessness of tryingto under-
stand Irish politics, or rather Irish politicians, with their
incongruous mixture of fury and frivolity. With a differ-
ence there is much teaching to the same purpose in the
spectacle of Belfast, the most prosperous and progressive
town in Ireland, returning a representative without name,
services, or any other recommendation than being dull and
obstinate in the bigotries and feuds of 150 years ago, and
returning such a representative under the pressure, not of
purblind aristocracy, but of a democracy more fierce as
well as more foolish by far than was ever swayed by an
English demagogue.

Why was Mr. Kavanagh " triumphantly returned" for
the county of Wexford ? Not on account of his opinions,
but rather in spite of his opinions. Even if his opinions
had not been notoriously different from those of the mass
of the constituency, the other candidate was of the same
opinions, and could utter his opinions with excessive ease,
while Mr. Kavanagh could not utter them at all—besides
which it cannot be doubted that the county contains other
men of the same mind and of less painfully incomplete
body. Not on account of his assumable fitness or effec-
tiveness—for he is fit only for one function of a member of
Parliament, and is less fit even for that than any other
man. He could not appear to speak even at the election; the
rules and customs of the House of Commons will have to
be suspended to enable him even to listen ; and, in order to
enable him to vote, devices hitherto employed only
in rare and extreme cases will have to be employed
on his behalf in every division. It is then on
account neither of his principles, nor of his powers
of giving his principles effect, that this gentleman
has been returned to Parliament-on the contrary, his
principles are unpopular, and he is impotent to promete
them. What, then, is the grand counteracting weight ? what
was the claim which he put forward and the electors ac-
knowledged ? Simply that he was without arms and legs.
That is the simple fact, and it is a very discreditable fact.
He claimed and was chosen on account of his defects—
calamity was treated as merit, and peculiar unfitness as a
recommendation. Such a procedure is discreditable to the
taste and the sense both of him who asked and those who
gave. Mr. Kavanagh's strange and dreadful bodily de-
fects entitle him to the sympathy of his less unfortunate fel-
low-creatures ; and it is pleasing as well as curious to hoar
of the success of his efforts to some extent to overcome
his misfortunes, and render his private life tolerable or
even agreeable to himself. To scorn or ridicule a man
thus struggling with such a position would be not only
senseless and cruel, but brutal. But there is a vast dif-
ference between giving to the victim of such afflictions
the sympathy which is his duo, and giving him honour
and reward—reward which he cannot earn, and honour
Which he cannot worthily wear. Mr. Kavanagh as a pri-
vate gentleman, claiming the sympathy and goodwill of
his friends and neighbours, is in quite a different position
from Mr. Kavanagh as a public man claiming the admira-
tion of Courts and Parliaments. As a private man, labour-
ing under terrible physical defects, Mr. Kavanagh cannot
help himself, and so cannot be blamed—but when he goes
to care and cost in order to exhibit himself on the most
public platform the country affords, then, if he does not
turn his misfortunes into faults, he does something to for-
feit sympathy and provoke criticism. It may seem a harsh
thing to say—but is it not a plain fact ?—that the character
in which he goes to Parliament is that of a curiosity. It

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

STRIPPING CHILDREN.— Two girls named Emma Richard-
son and Caroline Foster, were charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt with stealing several articles of wearing apparel
from two children named Clutterbuck, residing in Upper
Rathbone-place.
Mr. Robert Silman, of No. 43, Foley-street, said that
about four o'clock yesterday evening he was passing by
the Middlesex Hoepital when he heard some children
down a mews crying. On going down the mews to
ascertain the cause, the prisoner Foster ran away from the
children, leaving Richardson putting the children's clothes
in order. Richardson, said that Foster had been attempt-
ing to rob the children, and that she was going to take
the children home. Re told Richardson to stop with the
children while he went after Foster and she promised to
do so, but on his return with Foster she was gone.
Mrs. Emma Clutterbuck identified several articles of
clothing as those the children had on when they left home,
and one of the children had told her that one of the girls
wanted to get her frock off ; but on telling her that her
mother would beat her if she went home without it, and
beginning to cry the girl desisted.
Mr. Silman said the children had been promised some
sweetmeats by the prisoners.
A constable of the E division said that when Foster was
brought to the station she gave the address of Richardson,
and on going to Stroud's Vale, King's-cross, and taking
Richardson into custody, she said that it was not her who
stripped the children, but Foster.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remarked in remanding the prisoner that
it was a shame two little children could not be in the
streets without being robbed by two girls like the prisoners.

was bad taste in him to seek such a position—it was both
a frivolity and a cruelty in the constituency to give it
him.

Dramatic, Equestrian, and Musical Sick
Fund Assocation.

(THIS DAY).

NEWMARKET.

The eleventh annual meeting of the members,
patrons, and subscribers of this society, took place
yesterday in the Grand Saloon of the' Theatre•Royal,
Drury-lane, which was kindly granted for the occa-
'ion by Mr. F. B. Chatterton.
Mr. B. WEBSTER, the president of the association,
occupied the chair.

The report, whicT was read by Mr. J. W. Anson,
stated that the committee had during the past year
made considerable improvements in the working of
the institution, which would in future add consider-
ably to the annual profits, which during the past
year had amounted to £lO5 6s. 2d. ; making total
cash balance at the society's banker's of £1,633 7s. 2d.
In conclusion the report congratulated the members
on being happily through the past year, which had
been one of great difficulty, distress, and sickness, and
referred with gratitude to the legacy of £54 11s. Id.,
left to the charity by the late Mr. W. Field, and soli-
cited such kind remembrance from other friend's.
The CHAIRMAN, in the course of his remarks, al-
luded to the pleasure it gave him in advocating the
claims of any institution which benefited his profes-
sion, more particularly of this society, which met ne-
cessities that the funds of none other provided for,
namely, assisting persons in endeavouring to obtain
situations ; and many of its benefits were also freely
accorded to nou-subscribers ; he therefore urged upon
those present to push forward the good wcrk with
vigour, in order to still further assist those who were
struggling to obtain a position in their profession,
which he trusted they eventually would do. They all
had the battle of life to fight, and if they went ear-
nestly to work they would stand the best chance of
prospering in the end. (Cheers.)
Mr. J. W. ANSON, the hon. secretary, said that
the wants of the society were felt far and wide,
and the applications for assistance were met in the
most liberal manner ; and in many instances in
which members of the profession were overtaken
by sickness, whether residing one or 100 miles
away from the offices of the society, the same post
carried the means of alleviating their distress.
During the past year they had granted 29 loans for
journeys, relieved 31 cases of distress, administered
to 860 days of sickness, and made allowances for
7 funeral: ; and during the 10 years just ended
they had granted 446 loans for journeys, relieved
254 cases of distress, and administer ed to 6,190
days of sickness. (Cheers.) In conclusion, he
begged to move that the sum of £5 ss. be granted
as a donation to the sufferers by the late fire at the
Standard Theatre, none of whom, unfortunately,
were members of the society, which in the event of
such being the case, would have had the power of
granting the same amount to every individual mem-
ber who was a sufferer.
The vote was unanimously accorded, and the re-
port having been unanimously received and adopted,
the officers of the institution for the ensuing year
were duly elected, and the proceedings terminated
with the customary votes of thanks.

THE EQUALISATION OF THE METROPOLITAN POOR
RATES.—Last evening, at the usual weekly meeting
of the guardians for the Strand Union, the subject of the
equalisation of the metropolitan poor rates was brought
under discussion. Mr. Wilkinson occupied the chair. Mr.
Bonham, who had given notice of motion on the subject.,
moved " That the board, as the guardians of the Strand
union of parishes, should enter upon the minutes a resolu-
tion agreeing with the justice of equalising the poor rates
in the metropolis." He said it behoved the guardians to
take action in this matter, as there could be no doubt that
in the next session an alteration would be attempted in the
poor-law, and this question would form part of the subject
which would come before Parliament. Mr. George seconded
the motion, which was supported by Mr. Hedgcock, Mr.
Cornish, Mr. Winter, and othergentlemon, and was agreed
to unanimously.
MORE RELICS OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN._A letter
just received from St. John's, New Brunswick, states that
a part of the crew of the American whale ship Antelope,
lost on Niantelik Island, October 6, had just arrived on
the steamers Wolf and Lion. The officers of the Antelope
bring interesting information of discoveries made by C. F.
Hall respecting the Franklin expedition. Mr. Hall Las
in his possession a gold watch, some gold spoons, and other
relics, supposed to have belonged to the Franklin party.
He also learned that the remains of some of Franklin's
mon were lying under a boat in Committee Bay, where
they had been placed by the natives after death. The na-
tives would not permit Mr. Hall to go on to examine them,
but as several vessels will winter in Repulse Bay, it is be-
lieved Mr. Hall will secure assistance, and push his way
where the remains are situated.—New York Tri6une,l,rov.l3.
