frankness and sincerity. He had felt great anxiety for the
prosperity of Crewe as a station, for he himself had sug-
gested it to the directors ; and he that day saw around him
such a mass of'intelligent and resOctable men who had

say that so far as the directors had the power,—and for
himself individually, so far as his humble efforts could be
effectual,—every thing should be done to render them
happy there. (Much cheering.)

the Company," was then drunk with great enthusiasm.
Captain Hutsu addressed the meeting in a neat and
feeling manner. When they found (he said) such gener-
