TENBURY AND BEWDLEY.

The directors state in their report that a dividend
for the past half-year, at the rate of £3 per cent.
per annum, was now due from the Great Western
Company. A bill has been brought before Parlia-
ment to make a railway from Worcester to Ten-
bury, which projected line, for a distance of three
miles—viz., between Newnham and Tenbury, runs
parallel with the Tenbury and Bewdley line between
those points. The capital account showed that
£156,301 had been expended, leaving a balance due
to bankers of £1,960.

ROYAL SARDINIAN.
A general meeting t f this company was held on
Saturday at the London Tavern—Mr. Grenfell,
M.P., in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN stated that steps had been taken
to obtain an amendment of the original concession
from the Italian Government. On application to
the Finance Minister, a commission was issued to
see how the concession could be amended. The
issue of that inquiry was that the company got rid
of making the difficult line until the land paid them
a large sum. In proportion as the work was done
they would receive the caution money deposited
with the Government, amounting to £70,000. They
were authorised to issue 50,000 preference bonds of
£lO each, bearing interest at the rate of 6 per
cent. The committee of the Italian Parliament was
favourable to the scheme, and he hoped in a short
time to hear that Parliament had sanctioned the
measure. He concluded by moving resolutions
approving the modification of the convention, and
authorising the directors to make arrangements to
raise the capital.
Mr. BELL, in seconding the motion, said the com-
pany, instead of having to complete 124 miles of
line, would only have to make 90 miles, while they
had the land for 124 miles. The Italian Govern-
ment had acted very liberally in the matter. _ _

In answer to questions, the CHAIRMAN said the
cost of the line would be £6,600 per mile. For the
sum of £126,000, to be paid to Smith, Knight, and
Co., the former contractors for the line, the com-
pany would receive all the plant now in the island,
consisting of engines, stock, and some extensive
earthwork. The interest on the bonds would be
paid out of sums to be received from the Govern-
ment. The resolutions approving the modified con-
vention were agreed to, and a vote of thanks to the
chairman closed the proceedings.

WESTMINSTER.

JUTENILB OFFENDERS.—George Leach, 9, Jas. Soanes,
8, Thomas Cavanagh, 10, were charged with unlawfully
possessing 191bs. of lead pipe.

Maurice M'Leod, 235 B, said that last night he was
called to Snow's Rents, Westminster, and from information
he received he went to a house there, and in the passage
found Soanes and Leach with 191bs. of lead pipe in their
possession, and took them into custody. Ile went and
took Cavanagh out of bed, as he was told he had been con-
cerned in the robbery.

Mr. Arnold said the prisoners were charged with un-
lawful possession, and as two of them were found with
the lead in the passage, and the third in bed, how could he
be unlawfully possessed of the property ?
It having been stated that Cavanagh's father would not
attend,

Mr. Arnold asked whether either had been charged
before.

Dennis, the gaoler, replied that Leach had.
Leach's father stepped forward and, with tears in his
eyes, said his boy would not be so bad were it not for his
wife's drunken and dissolute habits ; she spent all the
money in drink and encouraged him to thieve. It was
only last Saturday afternoon that while asleep his boy
stole the whole of his week's wages, and he believed they
were spent in drink by the mother. He said, with tears
in his eyes, that his wages were only 15s. per week, but if
the magistrate would send the boy to- a Reformatory he
would work hard to pay 2s. per week towards his main-
tenance. Re tore his trousers off him yesterday, but he
went out without any, and had a pair given him at the
station.

Mr. Arnold sentenced Leach to be kept at Feltham for
three years, and made an order for the father for ls. 6d. per
week. Cavanagh was discharged, and Soanes was re-
manded for the attendance of his father.

SUBSCRIPTIONS for the WIDOW and
CHILDREN of the late Captain It. 11. GRONOW,
formerly of the Grenadier Guards, and Author of " Recol-
lections and Anecdotes," " Celebrities of London and
Paris," &c. Captain Gronow, who lately died in Paris,
has left a widow and four young children, by his second
marriage utterly destitute, without means to defray his
funeral expenses, or even to purchase bread. Captain
Gronow was disinherited by his father, in favour of
his brother, a clergyman, and the small income which
he derived from the interest of a sum charged on the family
estate ceased with his life ; while the sums he received
from time to time for his " Recollections" were expended
in providing for the increasing expenses of his young
family. Under these distressing circumstances the friends
of Madame Gronow in Paris came to her aid, and they now
appeal to the liberality of her late husband's friends in
London, and also to the readers of his Reminiscences, for
contributions to enable her to maintain and educate her
children.

THAMES

A BAD Sox.—George Knott, a stoutly built young man,
was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with assaulting
his father, of 80, Silver-street, Stepney.
The complainant, a respectable tradesman, stated tha
his son had repeatedly beaten him, and was a very disre-
putable and drunken blackguard. He had been repeatedly
struck by his son, for whom he obtained a situation and a
salary of one guinea per week. His son was repeatedly
intoxicated, and neglected his work. His son came home
drunk yesterday afternoon instead of attending to his work
and upon remonstrating with him be used most fearful
language. He attempted to turn him out of the house, and
his son struck him twice and knocked him down.
Mr. Partridge—Did you hit him?
Witness—Yes, I did.

A police constable said that when he was called to assist
the prisoner the face of Mr. Knott, sen., was streaming
with blood.

The prisoner said his father fell and hurt himself. He
admit ted ho was intoxicated yesterday and neglected his
work.

Mr. Partridge—You ought to be ashamed of yourself to
strike your father. lie was sober and you were intoxi-
cated. You are fined 20s. or 14 days.
. _

A TICKET-OF-LEAVE CioNvlcT.---Thomas Montgomery,
a very tall and powerful man, who was released from Mill-
bank Prison on the 24th of January last, and is now what
is called a liconse holder, was brought before Mr. Partridge
charged IN ith violating the conditions of his ticket-of-Jeave
in not duly and properly notifying his intended change of
residence.

Inspector Griffin, of the K division, said the prisoner
had reported himself at the station-house adjoining the
court monthly since his release from prison, but he had
given false addresses, whero he could not be found or
heard of.

The prisoner said the police had made a mistake in one
address, and he had been turned out of another lodging
owing to the police making inquiries about him, and ex-
posing him. He did not understand the regulations.
Mr. Partridge said if the Commissioners of Police called
upon him to put the law in force, the act of Parliament
was imperative. The prisoner must notify the proposed
change in his place of abode before it took place, which he
had neglected to do. He believed there was some mistake
in the matter, and under the circumstances the Commis-
sioners would not call upon him to put the law in force
and send the man back to the convict prison. The pri-
soner had duly reported himself, and had notified his
change of abode before it took place.
lir. Griffin—And he went twice to the wrong station-
house—an evasion.

Mr. Partridge—You will report all the circumstances
fairly to the Commissioners of Police. The case is
adjourned till Thursday. Take the prisoner's own recog-
nisance to appear here on Thursday.

THE PORTRAIT EXHIBITON will be opened at
South Kensington in the month of April. It will consist

The report of the directors states thatthe line had
been worked with regularity and without accident
during the half-year. A bill had been brought before
Parliament under which the Great Western and
North-Western Companies sought for power to
take the Tenbury line on a joint lease. The direc-
tors did not think it good policy to declare a divi-
dend out of the small balances of revenue. The
total payments on capital account were £38,993,
leaving a balance due to bankers of £382.

SUBSCRIPTIONS for the WIDOW and
CHILDREN of the late Captain R. R. GRONOW,
formerly of the Grenadier Guards, and Author of " Recol-
lections and Anecdotes,
" Celebrities of London and
Paris," &c. Captain Gronow, who lately died in Paris,
has left a widow and four young children, by his second
marriage utterly destitute, without means to defray his
funeral expenses, or even to purchase bread. Captain
Gronow was disinherited by his father, in favour of
his brother, a clergyman, and the small income which
ho derived from the interest of a sum charged on the family
estate ceased with -his life ; while the sums he received
from time to time for his " Recollections" were expended
in providing for the increasing expenses of his young
family. Under these distressing circumstances the friends
of Madame Gronow in Paris came to her aid, and they now
appeal to the liberality of her late husband's friends in
London, and also to the readers of his Reminiscences, for
contributions to enable her to maintain and educate her
children.

The report of the directors states that the traffic
was progressively improving. The receipts would
also be augmented by the traffic brought from the
extension line between Wivenhoe and Weeley, which
was opened early in January, and from the Wiven-
hoe and Brightlingsea line, which would shortly be.
opened. The works had been delayed by the failure
of contractors, but were completed on the original
line this month. The capital expended on the line
from the Ilythe, Colchester, to Wivenhoe, and the
extension to St. Botolph's, Colchester, was £49,076,
leaving a balance of £174. The first section of the
extension from Wivenhoe to Weeley, seven miles in
length, was opened on Bth Jan. last, and the traffic
was satisfactory. It was expected that the extension
would be completed to Kirby Cross in May and to
Walton in the summer. The capital expended on
the line to Weeley and Walton-on-the-Naze was
£86,482, leaving a balance of £2,361.

THAMES.

A BAD Son—George Knott, a stoutly built young man,
was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with assaulting
his father, of 80, Silver-street, Stepney.
Tho complainant, a respectable tradesman, stated tha
his son had repeatedly beaten him, and was a very disre-
putable and drunken blackguard. He had been repeatedly
struck by his son, for whom he obtained a situation and a
salary of one guinea per week. His son was repeatedly
intoxicated, and neglected his work. His son came home
drunk yesterday afternoon instead of attending to his work
and upon remonstrating with him he used most fearful
language. He attempted to turn him out of the house, and
his son struck him twice and knocked him down.
Mr. Partridge—Did you hit him?

Witness—Yes, I did.
A police constable said that when he was called to assist
the prisoner the face of Mr. Knott, son., was streaming
with blood.

The prisoner said his father fell and hurt himself. lie
admitted he was intoxicated yesterday and neglected his
work.

Mr. Partridge—You ought to be ashamed of yourself to
strike your father. Ho was sober and you were intoxi-
cated. You are fined 20s. or 14 days.

A TICKET-OF-LEAVE CONVICT.—Thomas Montgomery,
a very tall rid powerful man, who was released from Mill-
bank Prison on the 24th of January last, and is now what
is called a license holder, was brought before Mr. Partridge
charged with violating the conditions of his ticket-of-leave
in not duly and properly notifying his intended change of
residence.

Inspector Griffin, of the K division, said the prisoner
had reported himself at the station-house adjoining the
court monthly sine his releaso from prison, but ho had
given false addresses, where he could not be found or
heard of.

The prisoner said the police had made a mistake in one
address, and he had been turned out of another lodging
owing to the police making inquiries about him, and ex-
posing him. Ho did not understand the regulations.
Mr. Partridge said if the Commissioners of Police called
upon him to put the law in force, the act of Parliament
was imperative. The prisoner must notify the proposed
change in his place of abode before it took piaci+, which he
had neglected to do. He believed there was some mistake
in the matter, and under the circumstances the Commis-
sioners would not call upon him to put the law in force
and send the man back to the convict prison. Tho pri-
soner had duly reported himself, and had notified his
change of abode before it took place.
Mr. Griffin—And he went twice to the wrong station-
house—an evasion.

Mr. Partridge—You will report all the circumstances
fairly to the Commissioners of Police. The case is
adjourned till Thursday. Take the prisoner's own recog-
nisance to appear here on Thursday.

PEDESTRIANISM.

HACKNEY-WICK.

The unfavourable state of the weather on Saturday
afternoon last, at Mr. Baum's, as well as the other metro-
politan grounds, caused but a limited attendance, but the
sports were excellent in character, the principal event at
the " Wick" being the race between
W. BAILEY, OF DEPTFORD, AND ALEC AUSTIN, OF
WOOLWICH. —The conditions were for Austin, who is the
much lesser man (about sft. 3in.) to receive 30 yards start
in half a mile, the stake being for £25 a-side. There was
much time lost in measuring and re-measuring the ground,
when at last Mr. W. Price settled the knotty question, and
the men appeared at their marks, Huxtablo attending upon
Bailey (who is nearly sft. Bin.), Stiles of Chatham on Aus-
tin, while Mr. H. Woodstock performed the duties of both
starter and referee. As they started just at the bend for
the straight run for home, they had to pass the latter
functionary four times, the winner having to run three laps
and just 100 yards to complete the distance. There was
no betting, for it was very manifest that Austin was suf-
fering, and in fact only just recovering from a severe at-
tack of quinsey. He, however, Tan most gamely, if any-
thing, in the first lap, increased his lead a trifle, when the
long stride and superior condition of Bailey began to tell,
for he was seen gradually to creep in, and caught Austin
at the pagoda at the last round; Austin made a game
struggle, but of no avail, and was compelled to stop 20
yards from home. It would have been a good race, if the
latter had been well. Bailey accomplished the distance
in 2 min. 11 sec. (upon whom 4 to 1 had been offered)
over heavy ground.

NEWCASTLE.

At the Fenham Grounds, on Saturday last, Bates, of
North Shields, and Dixon, of Percy Main, ran 120 yards
for £2O. Dixon had two yards' start, but, in spite of this
advantage, Bates passed him, and won by three yards'. The
betting was 6 and 7to 4 on Dixon. The weather was
very bad, and consequently there was only a limited atten-
dance.
