STOKES BAY.

A meeting of the Stokes Bay Railway and Isle of
Wight Ferry Company was eummoned for yester-
day, but there not being a quorum present, it was
adjourned until October.

THE ENGLISH AND IRISH MAGNETIC

TELEGRAPH COMPANY.

An extraordinary meeting of the shareholders
held in Liverpool yesterday for the purpose of
winding up the company under the provisions of
the Joint Stock. Company's Act ; Mr. Crosby oc-
cupying the chair.
The CHAIRMAN explained that the resolution
which was about to be submitted bad already been
unanimously adopted .at a numerously attended
meeting of the shareholders under an Act which
was then imperfect. A supplemental Act bad been
passed this session, and it therefore became neces-
sary that the resolution they bad previously carried
should be again come to.
Mr. PARKER then moved, and Mr. JONES se-
conded the following resolution.
" That the Eiglish and Irish Magnat:c Company be
wound•up voluntarily wider the provisions of the Joint.
stock Companies Act 1856.57."
[The affairs of this company and of the British
Company have been merged into One company
called " The Magnetic Telegraph Company."]
Mr. T. D. HORNBY moved the adjournment of
the meeting.
Mr. CONNELL seconded the amendment.

The CHAIRMAN said the directors bad c)me to
the determination that whatever the arrangement
was between them and the patentees it should be
carried out honourably, fully, and fairly.
The amendment was lost, and the original mo-
tion carried by 14 to 3.
The CHAIRMAN stated that the income for the
quarter ending the 31st of March last was 15,2001.,
in round numbers, and their expenses 8,8001.,
leaving a net profit of 6,400/. ; in the quarter end-
ing the 30th of June their income was 19,3801.,
and their expenses 10,4081., leaving a net profit of
8,8701. against 6,4001. on the previous quarter ; so
that their income for the half-year was 34,0001.
and their expenses 18,0001., leaving a net profit of
15,4001., which had given to the English and
Irish company 5 per cent., and to the British 4 per
cent. as arranged, after paying interest on pre-
ference shares, &c., leaving 1,0301. as a reserve
fund for the next half-year. He did not pledge
himself to any promise, but had no doubt that their
dividend for the current half-year would be 6 per
cent., and ofthe British 5 per cent., with a further
surplus added to profit. (Cheers.)
This terminated the proceedings, and the meet-
ing separated.

THE CATTLE MURRAIN.

Information has come from so many quarters that
it is quite impossible to entertain serious doubts of
its general correctness, although it may be hoped
that the extent of the calamity is somewhat
exaggerated. According to privats letters the long-
dreaded cattle murrain has broken out in a virulent
form in parts of the counties of Louth and Meath,
and in a district about 15 or 16 miles from Du lin
oil the north-east side. One party is said to have
lost in an incredibly short time 40 out of 106 head
of black cattle, while a struggling farmer, the
owner of tea cows, has had nearly his whole stock
swept off by the disorder. A gentleman just re-
turned from the Kings County states that the dis-
temper was raging in that quarter, and that in
every instance which had came under his observa-
tion the attack had ended fatally. Except in the
nfgantoy appear-
ancelead

dation there and for working the line. Negotia-
tions were being actively carried on to effect these
objects.

ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE.

The re-arrest of Spollen, with a view a putting
him upon his trial on the minor charge of robbery,
is regarded by more than one Irish journal as a
weak effort to appease the.public mind, roused and
dissatitied as it is at all the fruitless proceedings of
the officials who had the conduct of the Broadstone
prosecution. Adverting to the lamentable failure
of justice in this instance, a King's County paper
(the Chronicle) enumerates a dismal catalogue of
murders perpetrated in that quarter which up to
the present have defied all attempts at detection,
and which, as in the case of the ill-fated Mr. Little,
probably Lover come under the cngutonee of a
-human tribunal :

"In this county the escape of a murderer is the
rule, with scarcely a single exception. Mr. Pike was
shot on the high road in the daylight, almost within
view of thepolice, yet his murderers are undetected.
Mr. Lloyd's murder, perpetrated in the street of
this town, is still unrevenged ; so is that of Mr.
Cage•and others ; and, lastly, the assassins of the
llmented Mr. m. Manifold are at large. The
Government on each occasion offered a reward, but
no one came forward to earn it, and then they satis-
fied themselves with sendicg down some detectives
utterly ignorant of the country and its people. We
hid in this county a detective at considerable ex-
pense who did not make a single detection, and who
at a court of inquiry was proved to haVe occupied
himself in the more congenial pursuit of cultivating
a farm and feeding pigs. The entire system for the
discovery and repression of crime requires to be re-
modelled and altered, since the present is, undoubt-
edly, defective. The constabulary is more military
than civil in its constitution, regulations, and orga-
nisation. Its members are fettered and-restrained
by s rictness of military rule and of formal duties,
and they are not permitted that freedom for exer•

tion in their vocation which would best ensure the
sucessful and certain detection of
.criminal R, and
which, with the repression of crime, is the object
for which that force was constituted."

To this list of undiscavered assassins may be added
the murderers of Mr?. Sarah Kelly, Mr. CaPaghan,
and others of recent date. No doubt, a conviction
was had in one of the most mysterious and fearful
murders ever perp,trated in any country ; but in
that case, too, justice was eventually foiled, and for
reasons which up to this hour are wholly inexplic-
able. Mr. Wm. Burke Kirwan, the hero of the Ire-
land's Eye tragedy is still a living man, and for any-
thing that is known to the contrary in the enjoy-
ment of good health and spirits in the salubrious
'climate of Swan River. .

WORCESTER MUSICAL FESTIVAL

WORCESTER, FRIDAY.
The third and last secular concert of the festival
was given last night, at the College Ilall. The
attendance only numbered 730, against 920 at the
third concert in 1854. The first part of the con-
cert was devoted to a selection from the works of
Mozart; the second was a melange of songs, bal-
lads, and duets by English composers of this
generation.

The last oratorio this morning at the cathedral—
the "Messiah"—was wonderfully successful both
in a musical and pecuniary point of view. Up-
wards of 1,800 persons were present, and tbere was
not a dozen empty seats on the floor of the nave,
which was occupied by 680 persons, no less than.
626 being also crowded in the side aisle, the re-
maining 500 being distributed in the great western
g illery. It was generally admitted that the
oratorio was never known to go off better ; all the
principals were in admirable voice, and the chorus
was perfect.
There was early morning service at the cathedral
this morning by the members of the three choirs,
after which a collection was made for the charity.
These, however, are always small in amount, the
whole realising under 131.

The accounts, of course, are not yet matle up,
but the sum realised for the charity will be con-
siderable, and will approximate to the collection of
the last festival.

There is a grand full-dress ball to-night, to.wind
up the festiva week. • '•

WARRINGTON AND STOCKPORT.

The half-yearly meeting of this compaify was
held on Thursday, at Warrington, Mr. W. C. Fos-
bery in the chair.
The report which was adopted stated that the total
expenditure was 285,936/ in which was included
8,2501. forfeited to the Board of Trade, through
the non-completion of the extension to Stockport,
and 3,500/. of accounts due. To meet the out-
by the paid-up capital amounted to 169,5101. ;
the loans on mortgage to 62,7001. ; loans by the
directors, 15,000/. ; other loans, 23,9691. ; leaving
a balance of 14,8061.:o be provided for by new
loans. The directors intended to apply to Parlia-
ment for powers to raise 33,7861., which, with un-
issued stock amounting to 20,4901., would legally
provide for all unsecured loans and liabilities at
present existing.
_ . _ _

The revenue account showed an income 'of
6,2241. for the half-year against 3,8411. for the pre-
vious half year, leaving a profit of 5251., after pay-
ing all interest upon loans, mortgages, &c., and
various arrears of ground refit. The 5251. had
been used in reduction of a deficit of 8501. on the
previous half-year.

showers. 18th to 21st or 25th, stormy, with declining
temperature, bright rays intervening. 26th to 30;h
rainy weather and squally, with declining temperature.
It will remembered I stated the month of August,
'57, would prove one of the finest- harvest months on
intense
heat the result confirms my opinion. The
heat said to occur fri m the 3d of August to the Bth
generated electric excitement., which is generally the
consequence, and gave much power to the rainy testi.
monies stated to occur near the 9th of the month.
I would here remark that, in my opinion, the intense
heat of the present season i? attributable to the approxi-
mation of a cornet. There is also a conjunction of the
superior orbs, Jupiter and Herschel', which is one cause
of so much dry weather. They are near a separation
at this period, and again approach their conjunction
during spring of 1858, when a drought may be expected
to prevail. Conceiving these hints may be of same
utility, they are respectfully submitted to the putlie.

GEELONG AND I3ALLARAT RAILWAY.

S. J. Cooke, Esq., Managing Agent of the Gee-
long and Melbourne Company, writing to a con-
temporary, says : "Sir,—Refering to several
, notices which have appeared in your journal and
other daily. papers within the last nine months
respecting the Geelong and Ballarat Railway Com-
pany, recently formed in London, and which, by a
meeting of its shareholders yesterday was Unani-
mously resolved to be wound up, I beg to offer
a few remarks for the satisfaction of those persons
interested in the ult;mat3 extension of the Geelong
and Melbourne Railway from Geelong to Ballarat.
The colonial parliament has yet to determine
the system by which the main trunk Fnes of the
colony are to l‘e provided, and the large expendi-
ture which has been incurred by the administration,
under a vote of the all governm?nt, fer general
surveys, estimates, plant, and rolling stock, has
rendered it necessary to oJtain the sanction of the
present legislature before the works of the. Ge-long
and Ballarat line can be commenced.

For this purpose two bills were, by the latest
advices, to ba ;introclleed into the Legislative As-
sembly, one "for raising a loan," tho other "for
construct'on and management of railways."
It is, however, still doubtful whether the colonial
Parliament may not rzverse their former declared
policy in reftr4te to the government scheme, in
which case t'le Gee.lon,g and .13allate,
as well as
other trunk lines, w,ll- iu all probability be thrown
open to priva' e enterprise, with a minimum interest

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

EAST KENT.
The half-yearly meeting was held at the London
Tavrrn yesterday, Lord Sondes iu the chhir.
The CHAIRMAN having sinaply moved the ado

Lion of the report.
Mr. LITSIIINGTON (deputy chairman) seconded the
motion, and in doing so he said—My lord and
gentlemen, in seconding the adoption of the report,
I do not think it necessary for me to detain you,
as the report itself so fully records the proceedings
of the directors during the last three months. You
will see from that report, from the bilance-shee,
and the engineer's statement, that we have been
doing, I can say truly, our utmost to expedite in
every possible the operations of the contractors in
order to accomplish the opening of the line.
We have, however, been impeled at one
or two points, as we have stated in the
repert ; at ono point, near Rochester, by the
state of the embankments, and at another point,
near Sittingbourne, by some legal proceedings,
which delayed us six weeks or so. We shall not be
able, therefore, to open in September as we had
expected, but we shall endeavour to open at the
earl est possible period. The report refers to the
proceedings which have taken place before Parlia-
ment, and which took place in consequence of the
feeling generally expressed at the last and previous
meetings by the directors and shareholde's of the
company, in favour of the extension cf the East
Kent line from Stroud, so as to give us an indepen-
dent access to London. We were unfortunate in
the House of Commons. The committee gave an
aml,ignous answer. The chairman said that they
had reluctantly passed the preamble of the South-
Eastern Bill, but that -at the same time they had
exacted a kindly pledge from that company that
they would, during the next session of Parliament,
bring in some measure which would provide for a
Wt st-end terminus in conjunction with the Da, t-
ford and Lewisham Extension. The bill which, in
the report of the South-Eastern' was called the
Dartford and Lewisham Bill, and which was sa'd
to have passed, was applicable only to a certain
junction at Trowbridge ; all the other portions of
the inPasure were rejected by the Lords, so that
both companies were in much the same state as
they were before they applied to Parliament.
There has been a large expenditure of money on

both sides. The South-Eastern has gained nothing,
and all that we have gained is the recognition by
the House of Lords of our right to compete with the
south-Eastern, which Parliament deliberately
sanctioned in 1855, with a view of securing access,
by a direct inland route, from London to Dover.
But these questions have been so of en discussed,
that I need say no more about them. We shall
abstain as much as possible from Parliamentary
litigation ; but the objects we have been striving
for are of the greatest public and national impor-
tance, and we ask you to give us the power to take,
*Len the proper time arrives, such steps as in our
judgment it may seem advisable for the interests of
the company. It was undoubtedly the intention of
Parliament that we should extend our line to Lou-
London, England, 1857-08-29

SOMERSET CENTRAL.

The report of the directors. states that the sum
received from the Bristol and Exeter Company for
rent of the line from Highbridge to Glastonbui y
for the past half-year amounts to 1,8091., and from
other sources to 2521., making a totil of 2,0611. on
revenue account. The disposal le ballnce, includ-
ing 193/. from the previous account, is 1,6051. The
directors recommend a dividend on the original
shares capital of 70,000/. at the usual rate of 4 per
cent, per annum, less income-tax, which will leave
a balance of 272/.
London, England, 1857-08-29

EASTERN UNION.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held yesterday at Ipswich. Sir Samuel Bignold
presided.
The motion for the adoption of the report and
accounts was carried.

A resolution was also carried unanimously de-
claring the dividends of 15s. on the A stock, and
10s. on the B and C stock.

SOUTH YORKSHIRE.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at Sheffield yesterday ; Dr. Dymond in the
chair.

The directors' report, of which an abstract ap-
peared in the Times of Monday, was taken as read.
The Chairman congratulated the shareholders on
the steady increase of the traffic as shown in the
I accounts. The increase during the last half-year
had been al; the rate of 24 per cent. The am amt
paid in dividends during t►.re corresponding half-
year of 1856 upon the ordinary and preference
stock was 11,3171., and the amount payable for the
present half-year 15,5001., so that there was a con-
sid• rable increase in the gross amount.
Mr. STANIFORTIC said the increase of traffic had
been satisfactory, but he was disappointed that the
dividend should have fallen from 4 per cent. last
to 2i per cent. this half-year, though the net traffic
receipts were about the same. He complained that
the working expenses were 54 per cent., while the
maximum of well managed lines was from 40 to 45.
