;-.ND EXETER RAILWAY.--A- special general
is company was held on Thursday last, at Bris-
ine on the appropriation of the forfeited shares,
Esq., presided,—The Chairman having briefly
nature of the business to be brought before the
,luteli rose to propose the first resolution, ob-
-nn the attention which he had paid to the past
he company, he confidently hoped that they
n ward as one united, and, he trusted, sue-
'he resolution was then put to the meeting
mously.—Mr. Carlisle, in referring to the
e company, on the subject of the lease, said
ad been circulated that it was the determi-
tors not to continue to pay 4 per cent. di-
' the directors at the time when this was
nbered that it was then strongly urged, as
11 shareholders, who could not live upon

n to the statement, and he now al-
that it might receive the same con-
a the chairman.—The Chairman said
.;test intention on the part of the direc-
ze of interest, unless the,shareholders
r. Carlisle observed that it had
that the new shares would not receive the

ced as absurd. Of the new shares, to be paid
iriginal shareholders, the interest would be at

next resolution would meet the question
.nsle..—The second resolution, moved by Mr.
of Manchester, and seconded by Mr. T. W. Hill,
a then pnt to the meeting and unanimously adopted.—A
ensued, in reference to the appropriation of
.. es, for which numerous applications had
-r sent in ; but the division could not take place
~re 10th January, as the original shareholders had till
.at time to pay up the calls.—ln reply to a question as to
the necessity for future calls, Mr. C. B. Fripp said that they
"rad now reached the point at which they could borrow. There
'as little doubt that money would come in rapidly, especi-

t Western Company ; and if so, there
;ion for calls. The directors certainly
,nalce calls if it was not necessary ; at the same
time, it was not the interest of the proprietary to let the work
stand still.—Thankswere then voted to the chairman and di-
rectors, and the meeting separated.—Abridged from the
Bristol Journal.
