NOW that the new Directors have been duly
installed into office, we are tempted once more to advert
to the recent differences in this Company, which, as involving
property to so great an amount, have drawn so much attention
and created so great an interest—not for the purpose of re-
flecting on the late Directors, but with the view of warning
others in like trusts, more particularly their sucessors, against
errors similar to those laid to their charge.
The great question, of course, was the proposed amalgama-
tion with the Forth and Clyde Canal. to which many of the

terms, but to whom, as to us, the proposed terms appeared to-
tally unfair. The railway was paying six per cent., the canal
four. Now, taking this for the criterion their repective va-
lues, (and there was a greater prospw,,toeflin improved dividend
from the former than the lattorrtor while the one was ad-
vancing in prosperity the other was retrograding,) and apply
