leaving a 6nanci•l balance of 1,4631 available for the
future purposes of the Company. The Report also spoke'
to the arrangement of certain negotiations with tie Dean
and Chapter of St. Paul's; it also contained a recom-
mendation, or proposal, for narrowing the Middlesex
approach to the Bridge, so as that the approaches on
either side might be parallel.
A Proprietor moved than the Report should be re.
seised clad entered on the Minutes.

Mr. Bowurro objected to the Report as unsatisfac-
tory, and moved, ab an amendment, that it be referred
to a Committee, and brought forward by that Com-
mittee,.with remarks, at the melt Meeting.
After a few words from Mr. KNIQUT, a Director,
in which he stated some of the disadvantages likely to
result by the delay occasioned by such a measure, Mr.
•BowLING withdrew his motion.

The Report was then carried.
The CHAINMAN informed the Meeting, that though
th- Report had been so far carried, any Proprietor
would still be heard in relation to the proposal or re-
commendation for the narrowing of the approach to the
Br i.10—(11-par)
Mr. Bowlasio again rose, and entered into a long de-
, tailvicircUmstances tending to show the impropriety of
tiiiiowing the road,and concluded by giving it as his opi-
nion thirt the proposed alteration might be of great bens•
64 •rs far as regarded the property and intentions of two
Gertlemen, named Graham and Thomson; to the Com-
pany, it would be a bad measure. Mr. Bowling then
brought forward a plan of the ground circumjacent
the Bridge in proof of the assertion; the 'correctness of
the plan, however, was challenged.
Atter ►ome further conversation the question was
put, and there appeared a majority in favour of 44 not
narrowing the road."
On the motion of Sir Juror SCOTT LILLIS, Batt.
Major Generil Sir John Wilson was ballotted for and
elected to a vacant seat in that Direction.

Thank, were then toted to the Chairman, and the
