AMALGAMATION of the BRIGII-frOS •
CROYDON, AND DOVER LINES.
TO IWE EDITOR OF THE SUlV:,„bbfi
Sin,—There is no part of Mr. Hudson's policy winvt
been more successful than that of uniting the in".„—t/P;
different conflicting lines of railway by amalgamatione sir
decreasing their expenses, and increasing their influe_loiliolj
ability to resist attacks, and to bailie any opposition
them ; making, in fact, feeders of former enema dr •
strengthering them by what was intended for the
struction.
If this system of amalgamation has been thus sue., tbe'
in the northern, why is it not more attended to 'rri tIO
southern lines? Whv is it not tried, for instance,
Brighton, Croydon; and Dover lines, lines which, art poi!''
do not show anything brilliant in their manageol,e,,,n jut
seperately, but whose income points out clearly, WD-0017'
cious management, an united body might be formed eci the.;
any in the empire? Perhaps the present Directors
or d°
seperate lines cannot agree to bring the matter ab0u,.,,, ,ogi;
not like to deprive themselves of their power and pab:Aire`
But why do not the proprietors set about it thetofif
One staff would manage the concern, and the reduction
penses thereby, as well as other material advantages the
ing from a joint management, would not only inetv''lsltfr
dividend immediately, but soon place the price o,,ii'elc
joint stock at a very different figure in the lists tti.ofe
are now quoted at, merely by giving the public just' c; Or,
confidence that a great and permanent improvement
speedily follow this wise and necessary step. eetiOV
Allow me to suggest, through your medium, that to col'
of the provincial proprietors be immediately called lopo-
pool, Manchester, Leeds, &c., and there resolutions bee,
summoning a ger eral meeting of delegates from °aid bol,
vincial meetings, in London. The amalgamation Iribe
easily brought about, and would upset all the bearish gok',
Jews at once. Singlehanded, the lines will do no
united, they will prosper.—l am, Sir, &c.,

LONDON, SALISBURY, and YE°

Mr. John Chapman, one of the Directors, occur •

The CHAIRMAN, in opening the business of the °I hpv-
remarked that their Noble Chairman was prevented 7(rler •
country engagements from attending; while their 000.0 f '
Chairman (Mr. Ashley) was detained by his duties a:
tendant upon her Majesty the Queen Dowager, in " •
tershire. He might, however, add, that he had.that
received a letter from Lord Winchester, wherein he e-14;00,:.
his regret at being unable to attend, and said he was t pir'
in favour of an amalgamation. Of course he need Inla
out to them the nature of the three Companies, becatis;rb
must long ago have made themselves masters of their:sr
project, but he might just premise that the three !IL'
formed a complete and uninterrupted line from the. ibess.'; •
Western line to the Land's End. The first of
the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil, proposed to g°it este'
re
Basingstoke to Yeovil; the Exeter, Yeovil,' and I)°_,lji IC •
ran from Yeovil to Exeter; and the third, the Corn'
Devon Central Railway, continued the line on (10°4301061
Land's End. The two first Companies came to an Ir.. leer:,
ment some time ago to amalgamate, and so far as the4viet....
concerned, there was hardly any necessity for their
them together. It was at all times, however, of Tr, Iwo_ AP
portance that the Directors and Shareholders should 'fi gete7
a good understanding, and every important item et'mysi
with the undertaking should both have the aPPr°is' sr,.
,b . '
the Shareholders as of the Directors. Internally ;iv be 7;
rangenients to be submitted to the meeting had etre?
agreed upon; but before going into Parliament bi,
importance that those arrangements should be vat -010, •
the unanimous voice of the Shareholders, and mace
known to the public. The Legislature in the lastsi Sr
acknowledged that the object they had' in view was ofv theimportance ; and that object being- countenanced
almost unanimous support of the population of th pot •
tricts through which their line passed, and
of the public generally, they had every hope and cba sof
success. If any Honourable Proprietor wished to 450 f. tbe.
questions, or make any observations on the subject
amalgamation, he should be most happy to hear thew'' •
After a pause, ed

The CHAIRMAN continued. No one appearing "'wiltrok,llo' •
make any remark upon the question before the Mee", thew:. '
presumed they had perfect and entire confidence In for for
Directors, and he, for one, felt flatteredandgrateful to tuf,or,
it. With the permission of the meeting, he would voltl7ooed
little information. The Times newspaper had 11011.1001'
upon all the new companies to tell the public whet -ease; •
of subscription they had raised, and the nature and., hot
of their funds. Now, as neither the public nor the '
anything to do with their books,they declined to omPtill-
the request of the Times, but they had no objection to their
Proprietors, who had a right to know what the state
of
funds were. The amount to be subscribed by the London' were •
