RAILWAY.

A meeting was held yes'erday,' at the terminus of
the London and Brighton Railway Company, of the
Shareholders and Directors of the Brighton and Chi-
chester project, in compliance with a requisition to that
effect, in order that the Shareholders should state their
a:sent to, or dissent from, a proposition made to them by
the London end Brighton Company, for the purchase of
the Brighton and Chichester shares.
The Hon. Captain Hontem, R.N., Laving taken the
chair, the Secretary read the advertisement calling the
molting, and the report of the Directors, which recom-
mended that the arrangement should be made. at the
rate of 12/. 10s. premium per share, and certain other
conditions specified.
The CHAIRMAN then entered into a short explana-
tion, in order, he said, to disabuse the minds of the
Shareholders of the impression that the Directors had
caused any unnecessary delay to this meeting ; but the
fact was it could not have been called sooner, owing to
the Bill being in its progress through the House at the
time the requisition was first sent to the Directors.
Mr. PARSONS proposed a resolution to the effect that
the transfer be made at 104 per share, for he had been
instructed that it' they agreed to 12/. 10s., a legal diffi-
culty would be thrown in their way ; at the same time
it would be distinctly understood that the 124 10s.
would be paid.
Mr. DAVIS seconded the resolution.

Mr. BRUCE moved an amendment, to the effect that
the meeting agree to make the arrangement at the sum
originally specified.
Mr. GRENVILLE said that Mr. Bruce's proposition
was the common-sense one, but as there was some
" hocus pocus" in the way, it would be better to meet the
difficulty in the way suggested by Mr. Parsons.
The CHAIRMAN of the London and Brighton Com-
pany said he would, on behalf of that body, pledge him-
self that the understood arrangemeutshould be carried out.
Mr. BRUCE said that as he could not be supposed to
intend throwing any obstacle in the way, he would with-
draw his amendment.

The original motion was then put and carried, as was
also another resolution of a formal character, after which
a vote of thanks was passed to the Chairman, and the
meeting separated.
