LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN
RAILWAY.;

(MEETING THIS DAY.)
A special meeting of the proprietors of this company
was held to-day at the Waterloo-station, for the purpose
of empowering the directors to apply to Parliament for
a bill sanctioning the arrangements made last session for
working the traffic of the line from Wimbledon to Ep-
som ; far concluding the arrangements for a lease with
the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Company;for acquiring
some additional land at Exeter, in connection with the
Yeovil and Exeter extension line ; for constructing a
branch railway to Topsham for connecting tha railway
to Exmouth, exclusively with the South-Western system,
and for authorising a junction between the main line
at Northam, and the Southampton and Dorchester
line, and also for the purchase of several small plots of
land for improving the station accommodation on various
parts of the line, —W. Chaplin, Esq., in the chair.
The advertisement calling the meeting having been
read,

The SzcaeTenv (L. Crombie, Esq.) read the report,
which has already appeared in The Sun.
The CHAIRMAN, in asking the approval of the meeting
to the points mentioned above, said the report mentioned
no less than nine small requests ; to some of them
the shareholders had already given their assent ; and the
reason of the present meeting was, that as they were
unable to comply with the standing orders last session, it
became necessary to make fresh application. The
Salisbury and Yeovil Rail way was proceeding
vigorously ; and although they had concluded a lease
for a time it was desirable the agreement should be
regularly completed, and thereby prevent the inconve-
nience arising to either parties. The report next stated
that there were various small plots of land which it was
desirable, for the sake of economy, the company should
acquire ; so he did not think that that would occasion
any discussion. These plots would be pur phased without
the necessity of an act of Parliament, but it was thought

the best and wisest course to purale to have the
authority of an act of Parliament. The branch to
Topsham was the most important, as by its means
a vast amount of seaborne commodities woull be
brought upon the South-Western. The inhabitants
of Topsham were about to make a line to join the South
Devon, but immediately the South-Western project was
announced, they instantly abandoned their original in
teation and embraced it. The South-Western Company
have agreed to work the line from Topsham to Exeter
at 50 per cent, per annum—the cost of the line will be
about 50,0001. The Chairman concluded by moving
that the report just read be received and adopted, that
the proceedings of the directors be approved, and that
the necessary powers be given for application to Parlia-
ment.
81 Count ETRE seconded the motion.

In answer to a shareholder, the Chairman said, in
making the proposed railway, there was no intention of
entering into a rivalry with the broad gunge iiyatem.

A. short discussion ensued with respect to the advisa-
bility of making the Topsham project, which ended in
an amendment, moved by Mr. Fooks and seconded by
Mr. Campion, being proposed, viz.—" That that part of
the report respecting the Topaham extension be not
agreed to."

The amendment was put to the meeting and negatived,
and the original motion for agreeing to the report was
then agreed to, and, after the usual compliment to the
chairman, the procedings terminktsd.
