mours are current about the baud of IL RiSSATOILE,

European costume.. The former were conveyed in two of
Moorshead's chaises and the latter in three flys from the
station to the Dockyard, where all the officers of the estab-
lishment and a military guard of honour were ready to re-

cellency and suite, has been prepared for their occupation,

DIRECT BIRMINGHAM, OXFORD, READING, AND
13menTos RAILWAY COMPANY.-011 Monday the Master
in Chancery Brougham sat in,the Vice-Chancellor Wigram's
Court to consider the expediency of an immediate call on
the contributories of 10s. per share, to discharge the liabili-
ties of the company, which, according to the report of the
06621 manager, Mr. James Hutton, appear to be upwards
of 10,0001. In this company the Master has fixed as con-
tributories about 2,500 persons who had received allotments
on their applications and afterwards repudiated their lia-
bility. Much opposition was offered to the call on the part
of this class, and in consideration of appeals being pending
to the higher courts in regard to their liability, under the
Winding-up Act, it was agreed to suspend the operation of
the call until these appeals shall have been decided. The
call will now take effect on the 10th September next, on the
management and provisional committees, and the *llottees
who had paid the deposit on their shares, which deposit had
been afterwards in the major number of cases, recovered
back from the directors by actions at common law.
