WATERFORD AND KILKENNY

RAILWAY.-(THIS DAY.)

To-day the first half-yearly general meeting of the
Proprietors of this Company, under the Act of Incorpo-
ration, was held at the Hall of Commerce, Thread-
n.-edle-street ; George Anderson, Eeq., the Deputy-
Chairman of the Board of Directors, in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said the Directors had little to com-
municate, and that little would be found fully contained
in the report about to be submitted.
Mr. T. PaossEn, the Secretary, then read the fol-
lowing report
" This general meeting of the shareholders in this Com-
pany is held in conformity with the provision of the special
Act of Parliament, which directs that the half-yearly meet-
ings shall take place in the months of May and November.
" So short a time has elapsed since the meeting of share-
holders in September last, that the Directors have little to
communicate ; they have, however, the gratification of re-
porting to you, that a contract has been nearly concluded
with a party of the highest respectability in Ireland, for the
earth works of the permanent road, bridges. &c., on that por-
tion of the line from Kilkenny to Bennett's-bridge, a dis-
tance of nearly six miles, upon terms which are within the
Parliamentary estimate.

"The Directors have also the pleasure of intimating to you
that the valuation of the land is being proceeded with, and
they are assured that little difficulty will be encountered in
concluding arrangements with the proprietors upon fair and
reasonable terms. -

•
"The subject of extension lines to New Ross, Carlow, and
Clonmel, have been occupying the attention of your Directors
for some time past; particulars of which will be laid before
you at a special meeting, to be convened for that purpose.
" Your Directors have now to submit to you a statement
of accounts up to the 29th of September last, the period fixed
by the Act fbr balancing the books of the Company, and
which have been duly audited.

" The statement of accounts appended to the report, set
forth that the receipts up to July 21st, from first deposits,
had been 12,5001., and subsequently, from the first call of
2/. per share, np to September 29th,.14,808/. :—t0ta1,27,308/.
Of this, after deducting all expenses, there remained in hand
20,3081."

The CHAIRMAN said the report contained all that it
was necessary to say. The contracts for the works were
not yet completed, but preliminary arrangements were
going forward on that subject, and he hoped that in the
course of a week it would be settled, and that too
within the Parliamentary estimates. This was the only
subject on which he need dwell, but if any of the Pro-
prietors present had any question to ask, he would be
happy to give any explanation.
Mr. IIiLLEs wished to understand if there were any
steps taken to ascertain the value of the land along
the line? _ _

Mr. EMERY replied that a valuation of the land re-
quired was now making.
A PROPRIETOR inquired if there was any opposition
from the landed proprietors?
The CHAIRMAN—There is not any. Everybody is
with us along the course of the line.
Mr. EMERY said ho had lately gone along the line, and
everything was proceeding prosperously. There was
not a line in Ireland that stood in better estimation, or
progressing more favourably.
A PROPRIETOR desired to know if the call of 21. per
share was now paid up ?
The CHAIRMAN replied that the statement of accounts
up to September showed a balance due on calls of up-
wards of 19,000/., Since then a considerable sum had
been received. The amount now remaining unpaid was,
on Irish shares 4,366/, and on English shares 8661.
A PROPRIETOR inquired when the next call would be
made ?

The CHAIRMAN intimated that at present there was
no arrangement on that head, nor was it necessary that
the Directors should make any statement respecting it.
When such a call was made, he hoped the shareholders
would be ready to support the Directors in meeting the
demand made upon them.
A PROPRIETOR inquired if the Directors intended to
apply for any other extension line than the one to
Carlow ? _ . .

The CHAIRMAN—The report states that it is likewise
intended to construct lines to New Ross and Clonmel.
Arrangements Lc) this effect are going forward ; as soon
as they are completed a special general meeting will be
called, to which they will be submitted.
A PROPRIETOR—When will the whole line be com-
pleted ?
The CHAIRMAN—In about two years, to be within safe
reckoning.
A PROPRIETOR— Do you expect any great opposition
to the Carlow line?

The CHAIRMAN answered that they were at present
making preliminary arrangements with parties OR the
line, and as soon as these were concluded, they would be
reported to a special general meeting that would be
called for the purpose.
Mr. TEMPLETON then moved, and Mr. MIDDLETON
seconded, a resolution to the effect that the report now
read be received and adopted, and that the same be
printed and circulated among the Proprietors.
The resolution having been unanimously adopted,
The CHAIRMAN said he had now to call upon the
Proprietors to sanction a proceeding required by their
Act, that of affixing the seal of the Company to the
registration of shareholders.
The seal of the Company having been affixed,
A PROPRIETOR wished to know whether it was the
intention of the Directors to have any partial opening
before the whole line was completed ?
The CHAlRMAN—Certainly. A contract had been
entered into for six miles of the line already, and the
Directors hoped the whole line would be ready for con-
tract in a month. It was their wish to complete the first
ten miles by next summer.—(Hear.)
Mr. EMERY, one of the Directors, thought he might
congratulate the Proprietors upon the thin attendance
there that day, because he felt convinced that if there
had been any fault to find with their little line in the
present excitement with respect to railroads, that room
would have been crowded to excess. Ile felt gratified to
think that the Waterford and Kilkenny Company stood
as high in the estimation of its proprietors and the pub-
lic out of that room as it did with those present.
A I ROPRIETOR was afraid that the Chairman had mis-
understood the question he had put with respect to the
partial opening of the line. What he desired to know
was, whether it was the intention of the Directors to
open the line for any distance before its completion, for
the purposes of traffic?
The CHAlRMAN—Certainly; we wish to get to Thomas
Town as soon as we can, and when we do so we shall
open the line so far.
Mr. EMERY could assure the Proprietors generally
that they might rely upon the Directors doing all in their
power fur the benefit of the Company, and that any
pledge they had made would be carried out strictly to
the letter.
The CHAIRMAN, in answer to the question of a Pro-
prietor, stated that he was not aware that any ill-feeling
had been excited with respect to the stone to be used for
the bridge. The Proprietors might depend upon it that
the Directors would take care that good and desirable
materials should be made use of in the construction of
the bridge. Mr. Green had not urged the using of any
particular stone.
Mr. EMERY observed that if the Directors found any
difficulty upon the subject, they would take the opinion
of parties well qualified with the nature of the stone in
;he neighbourhood.
The CHAIRMAN, in answer to the question of a Pro-
prietor, said it was intended to make a trial of wooden
rails on their first contract.
Thanks were then voted to ;the Chairman and the Di-
rectors, and the meeting separated.

Earl Granville's youngest son, the Hon. F. Leveson
Gower, intends to follow the profession of a barrister, having
been just called to the bar for that purpose.
Lord and Lady Cottenham and family are passing
the winter at Wimbledon. The Noble and Learned Baron, it
is uuderstood, has received a large accession of fortune by the
demise of his brother, the late Sir W. W. Pepys, Bart.
The Duke and Duchess of Somerset have been en-
tertaining a succession of visitors at Wimbledon Park during
the past fortnight. Their Graces had a dinner party last
evening, the guests at which included the Duchess of Inver-
ness, the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Countess of Kerry, and
the Hon. Charles Gore, Lord and Lady Cottenham and the
Hon. Caroline Pepys, Lord and Lady Langdale, Dwarka-
nauth Tagore, Sir Edward Colebrooke, thej Hon. C. P. Vil-
liers, &c.
THE LORD CHANCELLOR.—The last accounts from
Tarville are very favourable. His Lordship is daily im-
proving in health and strength, and was yesterday able to
come Clown stairs, and remained for a length of time in the
drawing-room.
LADY VILLIERS.—The accounts received in town
from Upton House yesterday morning, state that Lady Vil-
Hers is much better, and no danger now exists.
We regrat to announce the decease of the Dowager
Lady Bowyer, which took place at Florence on the 15th
instant, in the 94th year of her age. Her Ladyship was
the only daughter and heiress of Admiral Sir Piercy Brett,
who served under Lord Anson, in his celebrated voyage, as
Lieutenant of the Ceaturion, and subsequently rose to great
distinction in the service of his country. lie was a fiiend
and supporter in Parliament of the great Lord Chatham,
under whose administration he held the office of a Lord of
the Admiralty. The. deceased • lady was the widow of Ad-
miral Sir George Bowyer, of Radley, Berks, and Denham,
Bucks, Bart., who was one of the Rear-Admirals, and re-
ceived a severe wound at the victory of the let of June,
1794. He was created a Baronet for his services ; but on
the decease of his elder brother, Sir Wm. Bowyer, he suc-
ceeded to the older baronetcy, conferred shortly after the
Restoration on Sir William Bowyer, Knt., M.P. for Buck-
inghamshire, as a reward for his fidelity to the royal cause.
THE LEAGUE AND THE LADIES.—The League
seems rightly to appreciate the services ef the ladies in the
anti-corn-law controversy; and accordingly, George Wilson,
Esq., the accomplished and indefatigable Chairman of the
Council, has forwarded to every member of the Ladies' Com-
m:ttee a copy of the Art Union fur July, containing a glow-
ing and beautifully-illustrated description of the memorable
bazaar in Covent-garden Theatre in May last. This atten-
tion to the ladies, on the part of the League, is highly credit-
able, find will not, we are sure, fail to exercise a beneficial
influence on any future movement in which our fair friends
may be railed on to take a wt. The copies of the Art
Union were delivered to the ladies in this town and neigh-
bourhood las. week.— Tyne Mercury.
We have to announce the decease of the Hon.
George Hely Hutchinson, brother of the Earl of Donough,
more, who expired on the 17th instant, at Agen, in the
south of France, where he had resided for some time for the
benefit of his health, which had long been in a declining
state. The deceased was the fourth son of the HOD. F. H.
Heir I Intchinson, for many years the roprosentatiye of Cork
in the Imperial Parliament. The Hon. Gentleman has left a
widow, having married at Paris, in 1826, Mdlle Eug4nie
d'Angeil de Kleinfield, daughter of M. le Baron d'Angell,
officer id' the Guard-du-Corps, and Chevalier of St. Louis.
