the ,4 xisting claims on the company, ivents had proved,
notwithstanding all their perse►erance and assiduity to
effect it, that the intervening months have not been
sufficient to furnish that result. The shareholders have
already become acqouinted with this fact from the cir-
cular which has been sent with the accounts; and what-
e►er degree of disappointment may bo felt, that in that
respect the directors have not been able to redeem their
promises, they can assure the sharehobters that the pre-
sent delay has been tinything but prejudicial to their in-
terests. The directors are still endeavouring to bring
about a satisfictory settlement with the contractor, and
they feel so strong a belief that that will soon be eff,cted,
that they intend to propose the adjournment of this
meeting until Thursday, October 3, pledging themsel►es
that in the meanwhile they will use their beat efforts to
present to the shareholders, seven duys before that date,
such an account of the entire expenditure of, and claims
upon the railway company as was promised in February
last. The Eastern Uttion Railway Company at once met
the recitt.st of the directors for the pa) went of the sum
on account of rent due to this company; and you will
see by the published statement of accounts that the sum
f 2,000 i. »as paid by them, »hich your directors lost
no time in appropriating to those shareholders who have
paid up their calls to June 23. 1849. The directors hope
soon to receive a further sum on account of rent due. In
the prospect of soon meeting you again, your directors
haie only to repeat the expreision of their anxiety to
close the capital account of the company with as little
delay as is consistent with a due regard to the interests
of the subscribers."

Appeudei to the report was a statement of the receipt
and disbursements, from DI-ember 31, 1849, to June 30,
1850. The total amount received during the half-year
-bud been 6,988/. 6s. 9d., while the expenditure during

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re-
port, said, that many shareholders who were at present
absent would have attended the meeting to-day bad it
not been for a circular which Mr. Bewtree st the re-
quest of the directors had sent to the shareholders, ex-
presAng itheir .regret that they were not able to for-
ward that statement of the entire liabilities of the com-
pany which tavy promised in February last, owing
mainly to the tact that the nego;lations with the con-
tractor had not yet been brought to a close, and infor-
ming them also of the directors' intention to propose
the adjournment of the meeting. Personally be (the
Chairman) felt meat deeply the. cireunostake of not
being able. to present the accounts to the present meet.
ing. The directors hoped, however, to meet their
constitu.nts in October,,when,everything regarding the
state of the company should be laid before them.—
(Cheers.) All that wet necessary for him to do now was,
to call upon the shareholders to adopt the report which
had been read.

Mr. C. HAwittith seconded the motion. and the report
was accordingly agreed to.
A motion for the adjournment of the meeting to the day
recommended by the directors was carried, and the meet-
ing separated after awarding a vote of thanks to the
chairman of the board.
