LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 5, 1850.

SUN,

governed well. It was this thcught that must, if
any retrospection could, have cheered the dying
hours of Sir ROBERT PEEL. And, not to dwell
upon political matters only, the discriminating
and liberal patron of the arts, the ready and
sure benefactor of suffering merit, he whose
timely aid w:is gratefully chronicled in the diary of
HAYDON, and whose table, by a not common custom,
has been continually graced by the presence of
authors and artists, must have been enabled
to contemplate, not without satisfaction, the too-
often humiliating recolleetiot,s of the past :

" For not around his honour'd urn
Shall friends alone and kindred mourn;
The thouland eyes his care had dried
Pour at his name a bitter tide,
And frequent flils the grateful dew
For benefits the world ne't r knew."

Such assurances as these cannot but be full of con-
solation to those who sympathise in the sorrows of
the bereaved family at Whitehall-gardens, and they
only tend to strengthen cur belief thAt death—sud-
den death—instead of depressing, should be an incen-
tive to the energies of humanity. True, pomp and
parade are out of place among the tomb., yet who
shall deny that death is not wholly without gory,
when lite has been productive of good?

We heartily congratulate the shareholders in the
South-Eastern Railway Company on the result of
the proceedings at the special general meeting held
yesterday. The object for which the proprietors had
been called together was, that authority might be
given the directors to raise on mortgage any fur-
ther sum or sums of money, not exceeding in the
whole the sum of 1,000,0001. sterling, at such rate of
interest as they might deem expedient, under and by
virtue of the powers conferred by an Act passed dur-
ing the present session of Parliament. It had pre-
viously been ascertained that the above sum
would be sufficient to complete all the un-
finished work, to enable the company to
fulfil its engagements and to close its capital
account—a " consummation devoutly to be wished
for" by all persons interested in the welfare and
prosperity of the undertaking. It would, in fact, as
the Chairman justly remarked, place the large and
valuable property, in which they were concerned, on
"a permanent and lasting basis."
Although the South-Eastern Railway Company
has not been exempted from a participation in the de-
preciation that has attended every description of rail-
way property, there is every reason to anticipate that
it will also share in the " good times," which we hope
and believe to be coming. There has recently been
a great increase of traffic on the line. The judicious
arrangements that have been entered into
by the managers, for affording facilities to travellers
to or from the continent, have produced their natural
results. The weekly accounts show a considerable
addition to the average receipts, and fully warrant
the expectation that the dividend to be offered at the
next half-yearly meeting will be considered highly
satisfactory by the great body of the shareholders ;
and that there will be every prospect of a further
gradual improvement, until the concern may be re-
garded as returning a handsome remuneration for
the capital invested. We say, " the dividend to be
offered at the next half-yearly meeting," advisedly,
and with a full knowledge of the injunction that had
been obtained for preventing the declaration of any
dividend until the completion of certain portions of
their works. The statement of the Chairman, how-
ever, that before the next general half-yearly meet-
ing that difficulty would be completely removed,
must allay any apprehensions which might have been
entertained as to the inconvenience and annoyance
that would be occasioned by even a temporary stop-
page of the dividends, on which many persons are
dependent for the comforts and even the necessaries
of life.

Such an assurance was no doubt received with the
greatest pleasure by the great majority of the share-
holders. It had not, however, the effect of producing
the unanimity that is so much to be desired.
The private dissensions, the personal ani-
mosities which have been so painfully con-
spicuous in former transactions, and which have
tended "to mar the prosperity and depreciate the
common interests" of the company, were still percep-
tible. In place of co-operating to promote the welfare
and prosperity of the undertaking, in which all were
interested, some honourable gentlemen were willing
to injure their own property in order to gratify their
acrimonious feelings against the board of directors.
They wou!d carry out their suicidal policy at any
cost and at any The most hitter personalities
were coast quently indulged in against the directors
generally, but more especially against the Chairman,
and an amendment was proposed expressive of a
want of confidence in the board. The admirable
t'mper and imperturbable calmness of Mr.
MACGREGOR, however, defeated the objects
of his assailants. He pas!,ed by the coarse
and unwarrantable aspersions that had been heaped
upon him in contemptuous silence. He had already
appeared before a committee of the shareholders ;
his entire conduct had been strictly investigated, and
after thaticlose and searching inquiry, and the full and
complete acquittal which followed that investigation,
he might well despise and disregard any repetiti-,n of
the bygone accusations. If ever man could plead
autrefois acquit, Mr. MACGREGOR might have done
so. The report of the committee of investigation,
published in May, 1849, contains the following
passage, which must be conclusive on the question :

" Your committee cannot conclude this report without
special allusion to the Chairman of the company, who,
it must be admitted, has been, as it were, on his trial;
'hey have already shown the utter groundlessness of the
charges whiCh have been al!eged, or rather suggested,
affecting his integrity in the administration of the
finances of the company: they, moreover, feel bound to
state their conviction that, notwithstanding errors of
judgment and an undue assumption of individual r, spon-
sibility, his conduct has been honourable throughout, and
marked by a sincere, unflinching, and, excepting in his
character of a very large proprietor, a disinterested de-
votion to the interests of the South-Eastern Company."
When such a verdict as that above given had been
returned by a body of high-minded and honourable
gentlemen, we can scarcely understand how any
persona could be found with sufficient hardihood
and recklessness to repeat the former charges.
The decision of the shareholders, however, clearly
proved how futile were such attempts. The amend-
ments were successively rejected, and the original
resolution, empowering the directors to raise the ne-
cessary funds, ultimately carried by large and over-
whaming majorities, indeed, not more than four
or five hands were raised on behalf of the dis-
sentients.

Again, then, we congratulate the shareholders on
this auspicious result. They may be well assured
that there is nothing more dangerous to the common
welfare than an undue and unwarranted distrust of
those in whose hands the management of their pro-
perty is placed. It is as injurious as the blind and
unreasoning confidence that formerly existed. The
latter might perhaps encourage those placed
in authority to enter into undue and hazardous specu-
lations, the former would cripple their hands, para-
lyse their energies, and prevent them from doing
anything, however urgently required, that might
possibly expose them to censure personally. There is
but little prospect of the one error being now com-
mitted. The danger lies the other way, and care
must be taken lest "in avoiding Scylla they may fall
into Charybdis." If direct charges can be preferred
capable of being substantiated or rebutted, let them
be fully and fairly investigated ; but let shareholderb
regard as their worst enemies those who bring for-
ward vague insinuations and general aspersions—who
resort to

"the shrug, the hum, or ha!
These petty brands that calumny doth use "
an:l who, for the gratification of their own malevo-
lent and vindictive feelings, would damage their own
pr ,spects as well as those of their brother share•
holders.

The sales of Cotton et Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at from 8,000 to 10,000 bales, of which 3 000

The New Zealand Company is placed in a singular
and somewhat interesting position. Atter struggling
en through hardships, difficulties, and, doubtless, some
mismanagement, it is now discovered that the
advantsee of those who have embarked their
capital therein wits be best consulted by
resigning their charter into the hands of Government,
according to the Act of Parliament under authority ot
which they have received within the last three years
pecuniary advances. It is undeniable that the settlers
on the estates of the New Zealand Conn:any
have had much to complain ef, aerd elthoueh
blame attaches to the Colonial-office, it is highly satis-
factory at least to know that if the company has not yet
received the cAnpensation to which it considers
itself entitled, the settlers at Wellington, N: lsen, and
Otago, have, at public meetings, expressed the naselves
contented with tale arrangements of 1847, and anxieus
that the cutripeisy should conduits its operations. Trite.
aft-T ell the ill-feeling that has prevailed, is disinterested
and complimentary. The idea was entertaireci of
organisiug under high auspices a new asse-
cietion, and, as may be -presumed, with au
adequate capital, but this has been abandoned, and at
the meeting of proprietors held yesterday, a formal vote
was passed fur the surrender of the charter. Active
operations are thus at au end, after having been cameo
on for tnree 3 ears under the late agreement. We
gather from this last report of the directors
that the principles. which have regulated their
measures have been "to exempt new settle-
ments from .the sources of risk and uncertainty
which had proved so injurious to the old ; to fulfil
former engagements; to secure the satisfaction of pre-
vious colonists, as the best invitation to future; to ex-
tinguish foreign interference and competition ; to ac-
quire and throw open lands for occupation ; to dis-
pose of these whenever opportunities offered, and
individuals were willing to purchase ,• but with-
out waiting for such purchases, to keep up a
regular communication with each settlement, and
pour in a continuous stream of money and of labour,
se tar as the means at our command permitted; and
when necessary for setting on foot &great and important
enterprise, to venture even so far to rely on the public
spirit of our constituents as to pledge (conditionally) a
yet further portion of their imperfectly remunerated
capital; to remove every known occasion of dissatis•
faction or of danger, to smooth every difficulty, to in-
crease every facility-, and to improve every detail in
every separate process of the work of colonisation.
It will be seen that ti. land sold to private
individuals since April, 1847, has amounted to 13.582
acres, and the sum received for the sense 27,9741., or on
an average to about 4,525 acres, and 9,3251. yearly.
This is exclusive of the quantity sold by the Canterbury
Association. The passengers conveyed to the colony
during the same period, in eighteen ships chartered by
the company, and three dispatched under its supervision,
of the aggregate burthen of 12,541 tons, have
been 2,485. Exclusive of 25,0001. invested in
Government securities, and 8:6211. cash advances
t) the Canterbury Association, the payments
during the three years commencing on the 6th April,
1847, have been 203,3911.; and out of this sum, deben-
tures and other liabilities incurred prior to that date
amounted to 68,2151., leaving a ha'ance of 135,175/
The aggt note of the three periods is 270,073 acre.; dis-
posed u', excludve of sales in Canterbury and additional
grants to original land purchasers; ships chartered by
the company 76, and 19 dispatched under its supervision
making together 95 vessels, of the burthen of 46,578
tons; passengers conveyed, 11,6E0."
The directors further state that throughout the
southern settlements despondency has passed away, and
that all is again promising.
Sydney accounts of March 16 have come to hand.
In the absence of arrivals from California the sales ot
merchandise for that market had declined, but a fair
general business was doing.
Advices of March 13 from Van Diemen's Land staee
that the emigration debt was about to be increased by
the issue of debentures, and it was feared without com-
pensating results.
From Port Philip, under date the 12th inst., the har-
vest is reported as very good in quality, but deficient in
quantity.
The Stock Market has been exceedingly buoyant
again, and the quotations are all higher. There is an
absence of foreign news of interest, and the excellence of
the national trade returns, with the revenue ac-
counts to he made up this evening, and ex-
pected to be equally encouraging, add to the
ieflaence of the abundance of money. Consols

MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.-(FRIDAY.)

Since Monday, the arrivals of English Wheat for our
market, coastwise as well as by land carriage, have been
on a very limited scale. To-day, very few samples of
either red or white were on offer ; while the demand
ruled steady, at fully last wee k's quotations. From
abroad, upwards of 10,000 quarters of Wheat have come
fresh to hand, in very middling condition. Selected
parcels were scarce, and quite as dear, but all other
kinds met a very slow inquiry, at late rates. The sup-
ply of foreign Barley was large, hence, the demand for
that article was ♦ery inactive, and prices were with dif-
ficulty supported. Malt—the supply of which was
limited—:old steadily, at very full prices. The show of
Oat samples was not large, yet the trado ruled heavy,
and late figures were with difficulty supported. Indian
Corn was effering on lower terms. The Fiour sold
freely. In all other articles next to nothing was doing.

Our market to-day was very moderately supplied
with Beasts as to number, while toeir general quality
was inferior. The few prime Scots on offer were dis-
posed of at Monday's prices, viz., from 3s 6d to 3s 8d
per 81bs, In all other kinds exceedingly little business
was transacted. The supply of Sheep was not so ex-
tensive as that exhibited on this day se'nuight, never-
tt,eless the demand for that description of stock ruled
inactive; but we have no change to notice in the cur-
rencies. Notwithstanding that the number of Lambs
was seasonably large, the trade ruled firm, at very full
prices. Calves were in good supply, and sluggish inquiry,
at late rates. The sale for Pigs was heavy. Much
Cows were selling at from 141 to 181 each, including their
small calf.

AMERICAN NEWS

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY MORNING.

The United States Mail steamer Herman, Captain
E. Crabtree, arrived off Cowes this morning, and
after discharging her mails and
.passengers for
Southampton proceeded on her voyage to Bremen.
She brings specie 70,000 dolls. for Havre. We have
accounts from New York to the 20th alt., enclosing
advices from Washington, which state that the Coni-
promise, as reported by the Commerce of the 13th
ult., will certainly pass the Senate, and the opinion
was gaining ground that it would pass the House of
Representatives likewise.
The Ohio Loan of 2,600,000 dollars, recently
advertised, had been principally taken by parties
