UNITIID_ GENERAL GAS COMPANY.
(THIS DAY.) ,

A Meeting of persons bolding shares in the United Ge-
neral Gas Company, was lath' at the Company's office, 14,
King's Arms Yard, this day, pursuant to advertisement,
for the purpose of confirming, or dissenting from, certain
resolutions passed at -a Special general Meeting of the
Proprietors, held at the City of London Tavern, on the 7th
March last.

Mr. LUCAS upon taking the Chair, briefly stated the
object of the Meeting, and observed, that the unanimity
which characterized the proceedings of the last General
Meeting, led him to expect that there would be no differ-
ence of opinion amongst the Proprietors on the present
occasion.

Mr. WOODHOUSE then read the Resolutions submitted
to the last General Meeting, which were to the effect,
that the capital of the Company should be limited, by re.
stricting the numbers of shares to 10,000 ; that the shares
should be consolidated, by 2.iving each Proprietor one
share of 501. of which 401. has beea paid, instead of two
shares of 2501., of which 201. had been paid, and that the
eligibility of voters should be arranged in accordance with
the change produced by the consolidation of the shares.
He concluded by moving, that those Resolutions should
now be confirmed.

Mr. BILL seconded the motion, which was carried
unanimously.
The CHAIRMAN said, that in order toeffect the arrange-
ments which were contemplated by the Resolutions, the
Directors had resolved that the booksi should be closed from
the 25th of April to the 6th of May, which was allowing
as short a period as possible to complete the necessary ar-
rangements. •

Thanks were then voted to the Chairman and Directors,
and the Meeting adjourned.
