RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

SOUTH DEVON RAILWAT.—The plan of the direc-
tors of this company for bringing about an amicable
arrangement between the original and preferential
shareholders having been carried on Tuesday, by the
overwhelming majority of 10 to 1, we can confidently
state that a dividend will be forthwith paid to both
classes of shareholders. We can also state that the
dividend to the original shareholders, in 1851, is ex-
pected to be 2, if not 24 per cent.
BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY.—The proposals
of the directors for raising new capital, by the crea-
tion of new preferential shares, were unanimously
agreed to at the meeting at Bristol, on Thursday.
THE BARRADOES RAILWAY.-011 Friday at eleven
o'clock, a meeting was held before his Honour
the Master in Chancery Blunt, to appoint an official
manager to investigate and wind up the affairs
of this company, on the petition of the shareholders,
who state that it was started in 1845, with a pro-
posed capital of 300,0001., in 12,000 shares of 21.
each, deposit 1/. All the shares were allotted with
the exception of 1,000, which were reserved for the
island of Barbadoes. An Act of the Colonial Legis-
lature was obtained. The deposits paid on shares
amounted to 11,0001., which the directors drew from
the bankers, and disposed of, with the exception of a
balance of 201., now in the hands of the bankers. The
liabilities have to be ascertained. Five gentlemen
were proposed to fill the office of official manager,
Messrs. Sandeman, Ainger, Cooper, Symonds, and
Goodehap. His Honour appointed Mr. Ainger,
whose nomination was supported by 425 shares.
DIRECT WEST-END AND CROYDON.-onFriday his
Honour Master Tinney revised the list of provi-
sional committeemen whom he had made liable in
connexion with this company, and struck off up-
wards of sixty from the list, in conformity with the
law as laid down by the House of Lords, on the
ground that they bad neither acted nor taken shares,
though they had paid money in respect of creditors'
claims. This will leave about thirty provisional men
on the list liable for the payment of any cell that may
be made, or contribution that may be required, which
it is expected will not exceed 501. each.
ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH IN FRANCE.—The Minister
of the Interior has given orders that engineers shall
be admitted to the railways from Metz to Nancy,
Paris to Rennes, Nantes to Angers, Creil to Saint
Quentin, Avignon to Marseilles, Bordeaux to La
Teste, Tours to Poitiers, Montereau to Troyes, and
the railways of the Gard, in order to make arrange-
ments for laying down electric telegraph lines with-
out delay.
GREAT WESTERN.—The increase of traffic during
the present half-year, and the reduction of the per-
manent-wey expenses, will enable the Great Western
Railway Company to pay a dividend at the rate of
four per cent. per annum, and carry a large balance
—say, considerably beyond 30,0001.—over to the as-
sistance of the June six months. This calculation
„ippases All prob..ble charges against revenue being
paid mutt of it.
