Noßw/ed AMt NANDON RAlLWAY.,.—Wednesday
the half-yearly meeting bf the Proprietors of this Company
was held at their offices, in Guildhall-buildings; Adam Duff,
Esq., in the chair. The Directors, in their report stated that
the prOgress made in the works upon this line since the last
general meeting had metwas such as fully to justify The expec-
tation then held outs that the whole railway would be com-
pleted in the College of the ensuing summer. There was
every reason to believe that the whole length between the
Trowse station at Norwich and &WM:tam-heath, a distance
of upwards of twenty-three-miles, would be traversed by lo-
tornotive engines in the course of next month. The swing
bridge over the river Wensuar, at Norwich (one of the
greatest works on the line) wasproceedingsatisfactorily. The
iron pile foundatimia Were completed, and the superstructure
which was being made in London was expected to be shipped
by the end of next month. With respect to the line
near Thetford, the works had been stispended in conse-
quenek of its having been determined to make a deviation
which wOnlcl bring the main line through that town, instead
of approaching it VI a branch, as originally intended. This
alteration, which had heat approved of by the Board of
Trade, would not be attended itith any increase of expense
beyond the original estimate. The time fixed for the com-
pletion of the whole line is the Ist of July next. Arrange-
ments have been made with the contractors for the opening
of the line between Brandon and Bishop's Stortford by the
same time, so that the railway communication between Nor-
wich and anclon will thus be perfected in a far shorter
period than could have been anticipated by the most san-
guine. The statement of receipts and expenditure gave a
balarre in favour of the Company of 27,131/. 4s. lid. Re-
soliltione Were passed authorising the DirectorA to extend
their line tidal to bring the terminal station at Norwich into
the heart of the cith at a cost of 40,000/., and to raise the
sum of 126,0001., either by MOttgage or the creation of new
shares, as might be considered advisialg.

ASTOUNDING ! The following will amuse our
readers :—" The Havre and Rouen Railroad Company,
founded by Charles Laffitte, is thus composed," says the
Courrier Francais :—" the principal engineers are English,
the overseers are English, the operatives are English, and the
machinery has been fabricated in England• Everything in
the concern is English, even Charles Laffitte himself, who
voted for Pritchard."
