By reference to advertising column, it will be seen
that the Directors of the above Company will hold their
annual meeting in Wilmington on the Goth inst.
1t will also be by the notice OF the Treasurer,
in this ISSUE that the Directors have declared dividend
upon the capital stock of per cent? of which per cent
is due to the present. and per cent to the preceding
year. This speaks in terms commendable to those who
have thus judciousy managed the machinery of this
great public improvement.
We recently had the pleasure of ride this road
and pleased to to those interested the very
excellent condition in which the road has been kept
and while much praise is due to the President and Di
rectors the highest eDcomium is due to the General
Superintendent Mr. j. +. Robertson, for the prompt
performance OF the arduous duties which devOlve upon
him. the result Of which is the dividend which has been
declared and which bas surpassed the expectations Of
the best wisberS for the prosperity OF the Road We
think the Directors fortunate indeed in obtaining the
services OF gentleman well prepared TO perform the
duties OF his Office aud trust that they will reward
him with Il salary that will induce him to retain
his position. Up to this time we learn that the

CoNFIscATIoN OF BRIT1sH VESSELS What tcW the
British Government d0?-Ihe Savannah Republican,,
referring to an account in the New York Her0M Of the
condemnation of the British ship Hiawatha, seized in
an attempt to run the Lincoln blockade, remarks:
number of foreign vessels it appears. stand pa-
del'o and it was agreed among counsel that they
should follow III the same direction
1t appears to that in these proceedings the
tingency has arisen 10 which the British Government
wilt feel called on to assert its rights under the laws of
nations. If the blockade is effective one England
under that law, is bound to respect it, II is not eec
tive no liability attach to the vessels of foreign ma
tions that seek violate it. That it is not effective in
this case England has ample and incontestbe evidence.
Vessels have been going in and out Of Confederate ports
from the declaration OF the blockade until noW and in
every case have to believe, the fact has been
duly communicated jim authentic form, to that Gov
ernment Her right, therefore, to resist this uSurpa-
tion of the Lincoln Government is clear.
The only question is, will she, under all the crcun-
stances of the tme consider herself bound in This case
to protect the rights and property of her subjects? AS
she has failed in this Obligation heretofore, it is
reasonable to conclude that she will not be deferred
from.it now. We shall see.

count OF the cargo and what have already recovered
In general way may state correctly the cargo will be
worth over 100000 TO the Confederates. Two riied
24pounders have been got out, sharpes rifles and
ridges, IL horses we're saved, 500 Blankets &c, &c.
The engine is worth $4,000 and VI Il be recovered
Two OF the bockadng ships have been off here this
afternoon The wreck lies broadsde on, and nearly out
of the water at low tide There is danger of cur
being shelled at the work. but some think it will be diff
fcult to discover the wreck from the sea.
Five more prisoners sent forward this morning, max
