RAILWAY AND OTIIER COMPANIES.

MONMOUTII SHIRE.

The report of the directors states that the canal
tolls amounted to £968, including £6OB for traffic
on the Brecon Canal, and the expenses of all the
canals amounted to £1,288. The traffic receipts,
including canal tolls, were £11,154 less than the
preceding half year, and £4,876 less than in the
corresponding half of 1867. The decrease had
been caused by the general strike of colliers in the
company's district during the months of February,
March, April, and May ; also by the closing since
March of the Blaina Ironworks. The gross receipts
for the half year ending the 30th of June last
amounted to £66,360, against £71,227, and
the working expenses to £35,695, or 534
per cent., against £34,330, or 481 per
cent., leaving the net earnings £30,665
against £36,897 in the corresponding half of 1867.
The proposed dividend on the ordinary shares, out
of a balance of £14,120, amounted to 4 per cent.
per annum, against 5 per cent. per annum in the
corresponding half of 1867. The average rate of
interest on the total amount of borrowed capital was
£4 12s. 11d. per cent. per annum. The directors re-
commended that the dividend b© wade payable on
the sth October next. The bill for extending the
Sirhowy Railway to Newport and directing traffic
from this company's railway between " Nine-mile
Point" and Newport was, in consequence of the
opposition of the Monmouthshire Company, rejccted
by the llouse of Lords. The Newport and Usk
Railway Company and the Pontypool and Caerleon
and Newport Railway Company had obtained an
extension of time till Midsummer, 1871 and 1872
respectively, for power to purchase lands and con-
struct railways. The general subscriptions to the
Alexandria Docks not having yet amounted to
£150,000, it would be necessary to revise a former
resolution of the company, and to authorise the
directors to pay calls on tbe £20,000 raised and
subscribed by this company towards that under-
taking. The capital account to the 30th of June
showed that £1,395,879 had been expended.
