MONEY MARKET. [SPECIALLY TELXG.lU.l'Hlm.l LONDON, FBIDAY EVBKXKG. Money was more wanted in the earlier part of the day on Stock Exchange account, but the demand fell off in the afternoon, when loans were again obtainablo on easy terms, about 21 per cent. being tlio charge -1 for short loans. Discount business was not active, and three months' bills were taken at 2 to 2-§ per cent. Temporary stringency in the New York market is reported, but it h i-t litcla eflect here. The fortnightly settlement was satisfac- torily -rraiiged, but fresh business was li .lited. A bad impression wa3 created by led pao no news from the East, and foreign stocks opened heavy in consequence. The depression ultimately extended itself to the En-dish railways, some of which ratuer sharply declined, but partly recovered from their b.vest points. Iu fact, the only securities which seemed really steady were American railway.?.

Some frash sel- ling of North Eastern and North Western was ehocted, and the former was severely depressed. Southern A and Scotch stocks were more or less unsettled throughout the day, and further receded. Other stocks were quiet, but with few changes. The tone of the market at the close was bad.

Guillaume, President of the French Com- mittee of Peruvian Bondholders, it is pointed out that the English Committee is simply carrying out the instructions of the Chilian Minister, Senor Don A. Blest- gava, and that if the bondholders think they can get more from Peru than from Chili they need not register or deposit their bonds or accept in any way the generous gift or requirements of the Chilian Govern- ment, If the French bondholders are afraid of losing any advantages they think they may hereafter gain from Peru by con- forming to tl o Chilian requirements, so much the better for those bondholders who take their stand by Chili, as the fewer bonds there are registered the larger will be the shares of the proceeds of guano each wiii receive,

PENARTH HARBOUR, DOCK, AND RAILWAY COMPANY. HALF-YEARLY MEETING AT CARDIFF. THE PROPOSED DOCK EXTENSION. The 50th gaieral half-yearly meeting of the proprietors of the Penarth Harbour, Dock, and Railway was held at the Royal Hotel, Cardiff, on Friday afternoon. Lieut,-Col, the Hon. George H. W, Windsor-Clive, M.P., presided. There was a small attendance of shareholders. The report was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN moved the first resolution, which was that the report and statement of accounts be received and adopted. In the report which was presented to the shareholders for the half-year ending June 30th, 1880, the directors had stated the surplus profits for that half-year amounted to P,3,818 5s 7d. For the half-year ending December, 1880, there had been a surplus profit of 93,165 9s 9d, and that was alluded to in the Taff Vale Company's report. He thought he might just for one moment congratulate the shareholders on the receipts which have resulted from the working of the un. dertaking. The total receipts had reached the sum of 1:61,715 Os 7d, a return which had only been once approached, and that was in the pre- ceding I alf year, when it amounted to R57,000, All previous years were considerably lower than that amount. That being so. the receipts having exceeded the expenditure. Then the interesting question naturally arose as to what they should do with the half profits? First of all, what were they ? In the two half years he had mentioned the surplus profits amounted to jM,983 15s 4d. Now some, he supposed, would say that it was a very simple business, that that sum had only to be divided by two, and that then they would have the result. But he was afraid that the result was not quite such a simple thing, according to the rather intricate wording of the lease by the Taff Vale Company. By that lease the Penarth Com. pauy's year began on the 1st of July and ended on the 30th June, so thatfor the year ending 30tli June, 1880, whilst the last half of it yielded a profit of £ 3,818, they had to include in their calculation unfortunately the preceding half-year iu which there was a deficit of £ 1,149, On comparing theso two half years, they bad left a balance of £ 2,669, a fourth of which Lad to be taken as pro. fits a fourth which, after deducting the income tax, would amount to £651, and that was the sum really owing to them last September. Then they had to take one-quarter of the le3,165 9s 9d surplus profits, and this, together with the sum of 1:651 owing last September, after deducting income tax, brought the grand total to £ 2,354 4s 5d, owing to the Penarth Company at this time. These figures had been considered carefully by the directors of the Penarth Company. They had been submitted to the Taff Vale Company, who had admitted them as correct, and the Penarth Company had to deal with that sum really as half profits. Then the question arose, what was to be none with these half profits ? It was only two or three days before the report was printed that the exact figures were arrived at. But nothing would have given greater pleasure to the diiectors than to have had an opportunity of asking the shareholders to put the money into their own pockets. That would have been a very agreeable thing, but unfortunately the directors had to consider the state of the company's affairs, and the condition of the balance sheet, the assets and liabilities. They would remember that some five or six years ago they were enabled to dispose at once of all the unissued shares which had not found a purchaser up to that time they were enabled in a great measure to clear off the liabili. ties which the company had incurred. But unfor- tunately the sale of those shares only yielded one per cent., and therefore the direct profit which the com] any derived wa3 only a small amount, totally insufficient to meet the liabilities which then and up to this time existed. The directors had, thereforo, thought it incumbent upon them to look very closely 1^j0 ttie statement of the liabilities and assets of the company, and having so considered them, they reit it their duty to recommend to the shareholders that these half profits, amount- ing to C2,334, should be devoted towards the wiping off of the liabilities of the company. Devoted to that purpose, the directors felt confident that the sum, along with the balance au the bank, would v. ipe off all the liabilities oi the company, and enable them to close up tneir capital account with a clean balance sheet. Since June, 1877, they had been uniformly dividing a dividend of 4J per cent., bat it Lad been somewhat ot a push and a squeeze to perform that. The directors were most anxious, if possible, that the shares should pay not less than ih PJr ce^ and they had spared no ettort to maintain that, although it had been somewhat of a squeeze to do it on the last three or four occasions. The directors thought, therefore, that they we' e now in duty bound to propose tuat the half profits should be devoted entirely o wiping oil the liabilities of the com- pany. -1 e company would then start clear, and with the knowledge that if there were any half- profits in the current half-year, or even if there should be any absolute profit, the Penarth Com- pany would then have the fourth part to take from the uch was the surplus profit for the past liau-year. And the directors looked forward with confidence to being able to present what would be a substantial addition to the dividend which would then be due. The latter part of the report dealt itil a most important question to the proprietary, that of the extension of the existing dock at Penarth, but as this would come before them at a special meet- ing in an hour, he would not now say anything abollt it. and he would ooncludo by mentioning that in the present half year the eight weeks which had run compared very favourably with the corresponding eight weeks of this time last year. The motion for the adoption of the report having been seconded, The CHAIRMAN, iu answer to questions by Mr Charles Thompson, said the agreement as to the surplus profits was that the Penarth Company should get one fourth every half year. If there were a loss in the present half year that would be deducted, but if there were any gain .then it would be «dded. In reply to Mr J. Ware, the CHAIRMAN said the expenses he referred to were expenses of man- agement, all tho rolling stock expenses being defrayed by the Taff Vale Railway Companj*. Idle resolution was at once agreed to, The CHAIRMAN declared a dividend for the half year ending 31st December at the rate of 4 £ per cent., payable 0n the 7th March next. The retiring directors (Mr G. W. Griffiths Ihonias, Mr Henry Jones Evans, and Lieut.-Col. Hunt,) were re-elected, as was ihe auditor, Mr David Roberts. 'Ihe proceedings then terminated. Iu pursuance of the Standing Orders of Parlia- ment, the Bill for the extension of the existing dock at Penarth was laid before a special meeting of the shareholders held subsequently. The Bill piovules for an additional hxed rate of three- quarters per cent. per annum on the whole share capital of the company in lieu of the half profits, and for all increased sum for expenses of manage- ment, these arrangements to commence from a period of two years from the date of the passing of the Ac! Lieut.-Colonel Clive, M«Pv aga;n presided. The Liil v/as read by Mr I>. WILLIAHS, solicitor. Mr CHARLES THOMPSON desired that it should be more clearly expressed that the a; per cent was to be added to the 411 per cent. ■^r R, WIILIAMS said the clauses had been very carefully considered by the Parliamentary agents before being brought before the share- holders, After some further remarks, The CHAIRMAN said that they would, perhaps, expect him to make a short statement, as they were all awn::e the Bill contemplated an extension of the dock, the character of which the share. holders could see by examining the plans deposited for the purpose. It was intended to extend the l|Ock by about five acres and a half on the north- western side of the dock. It was contemplated to Put up four additional shipping stages, and there also room for two hydraulic tips on the north side. In itself the scheme was a small one but !t had a great object in view. It would be carried out on tlie company's land it did not necessitate «"»y disturbance of the tidal hsirbow, and still it obviated the necessity of taking laud from the Aiarquu of Bute. It would not, so he was in- formed by engineers, stand in the way of any larger extension of the dock it might be Contemplated to make in future years. Acrain. it utilized a bit of land that had hitherto been of no use at all to the company, al:h"1:!h a portion of the entrance to the graving clock had been con- structed there. Certainly the extension of the dock was very small, but they must remember that in connection with that extension—and part of the scheme—was the providing of considerably increased siding accommodation. Now siding accommodation was a very important factor in the capabilities of the dock for ex- portation. The power of massing coal trucks on sidings to be ready when required was one which, at Cogaii for instance, had proved itself very useful and valuable. The terms were that sew share capital should be offered, first of all, to the existing shareholders, in accordance with their holdings, to the amount of £ 150,000. Then there Was a further borrowing power sought for to the amount of X50,000 besides. The share capital .would, within tw° years of the passing of the Act. carry -with it a fixed dividend at the rate of 5| Per cent, all the half profits being done away with, The shareholders would remember that some years ago negotiations were entered into be. rnTeeii the two companies as to the dock extension. Ihese were left off, and nothing definite had n P^ace UQtil October of last year, when there was revival of a scheme for dock extension, r Joint meetings of the boards of directors were held, and the result was a scheme which had been embodied in a Bill for which Parliamentary consent was intended to be asked. That scheme had been thoroughly considered by the directors of the Penarth Company; and the directors thought it would be an advantage to the shareholders if the "half profit" system could be done away with, provided an annual fixed rent could be obtained in lieu thereof. After con. siderable discussion the directors had agreed to recommend to the proprietary terms doing away with their receiving half the surplus profits, and receiving instead three-quarters per cent. more in lieu thereof—making altogether 51 per cent. divi- dend, and that guaranteed for the residue of the lease, which runs for 999 years from the year 18G3. So that whatever was the supply of coal, whatever the circumstances of the property the, shareholders of the Penarth Com. pany would be entitled to that dividend, and with the Taff Vale Company at the back of it, he thought the security a very solil security. They niight never have been able to get better terms from the Taff. Negotiations might have" been going on in other quarters which might have induced the Taff Company not to be forward in advancing the Penarth Company in any way. All these things had to be considered, and were con- sidered by the Penarth directors, and there was also this important fact that there were claims set up under revertory clauses of certain agree- ments, some of which might liavfl been sub- stantiated, and which, if substantiated, would have detracted from the landed property of the company they coulddeal with in making a bargain with another company. Now, Lord Windsor had intimated his intention of giving up the claims to these reverted lands, stipulating that a littla station ehould ba m&da tax him. at and one or two slight stipulations. On every ground the directors thought it better to close with the terms offered. He concluded by moving a resolution approving of the bill as now read, subject to the variations Parliament may think fit to make thereon. r. Mr J. WARE seconded the motion, but desired that it should be clearly stated in the Bill that the three-quarters per cent, was to be added to the 4 per cent. The CHAIRMAN, in answer to a question, stated that the Taff Vale only pay 51 on the whole share capital (and the other additional share capital), and the interest on the money borrowed under the proposed bill if such were required. The motion was agreed to unanimously, the Chairman remarking that the directors would give the suggestion made by Mr Ware and Mr Thompson every consideration. The shares, said the Chairmann, would be allotted to the present shareholders pro rata and at par. The business of the meeting then terminated.

WHIT LAND AND CARDIGAN RAILWAY COMPANY. HALF-YEARLY MEETING. THE AGREEMENT WITH THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. The half-yearly meeting of the Whitland and Cardigan Railway Company was held at Whitland, on Friday, at noon. Mr John Owen, chairman, presided, and there were present Messrs J. W. Bowen, Q.C., Thomas Colby, Pautyderi; John Griffiths, Heatherly, Berks; Captain Higgon, Scolton Captain Gower, Cilgerran Rev. Richard Jones, Kilmaenllwyd Edward James, Aberelwyn, and others. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report and accounts, said there was an increase of 2100 altogether, notwithstanding a falling off during the last two months of the half-year. The first four months were very prosperous, and they had hoped to get a large increase, but in that they were disappointed. Their exact position was shown by No 9 traffic account, indicating a balance of JE550 17s lid. The previous half-year they had only £34, and then they had not the means of paying the debentures. This half-yeir everything had been paid out of revenue, leaving 260 to the good. He thought it was due to the economy which was brought about..(Hear, hear.) Mr T. COLBY seconded, and observed that all the locomotive repairs did not belong to the half- year. Mr J. W. BOWEN, Q.C., said he would, perhaps, be expected to give an account of his stewardship. The charges for repairs did not arise from the neg- ir lect of anyone, but simply frorn the fact that their company did not possess the machinery and other appliances for repairing their engines, nnd conse- quently it was better aud cheaper to send thein to the Great Western Railway at Neath and Swin- don When he attended the meeting of the Great Western directors at I'addington, he had expected they would attack the company through him on the matter of the remittance of the traffic receipts. It had been reported to them that the Whitland and Cardigan Company had kept back their moneys, which would have been a most improper thing to do, no doubt. In November there was a sum of £197 lis 3d due to the Great Western Railway, which had been reported to them as being their proportion of the traffic charges. It was, however, realiy for repairs, and now there was but R82 15a 5d due on that account. Then came the question as to the agreement with the Great Western Railway. When that agreement was first mooted, the Great Western directors said, "Your line must be changed from a light railway into an ordinary one, so that we can work it with our engines." They (Mr Bowen and his colleagues) shrugged their shoulders, and asked if the Great Western Railway could help them. The Great Western directors replied that the work of reconstruction would cost several thousand pounds, and that they would find 214, 000 provided they were given debentures with a preference charge. The Whitland and Cardigan directors agreed to this, thinking that their own debenture holders would also consent, seeing that such an arrange- ment would improve their security. They had not, however, agreed, and it was then arranged that he (Mr Bowen) should wait upon Mr Grierson and ask him if the Great Western Railway would' take their security pari possu with the other debentures. Mr Grierson replied that only his board had power to modify the agreement, promising the company his contention that thero was ample security before the board of directors. This was done at their meeting last Wednesday, but the matter came on so lata that it could be only partially discussed, and was adjourned till the meeting on the 3rd proximo. The previous day (Thursday) he (Mr Bowen) had two hours' conversation with Sir Daniel Gooch, Sir Alexan- der Wood, and Mr Saunders, the Secretary of the Great Western Railway Company. lie pointed out to them that the Whitland and Cardigan accounts already showed a surplus of £ 717,and the economies of this half-year would raise it to £ 1,000. He further told them that they would not be asked to alter the line unless the Whitland and Cardigan Company could get a contract signed for the extension to Cardigan. He then threw out hints that there were other persons of capital in the neighbourhood now that what was called a syndicate existed, which had purchased the Milford Docks and other undertakings, and might possibly help the Whitland and Cardigan Com- pany if the Great Western Railway would not. Subsequently to this interview he saw Mr Atcherley, one of thqk auditors, and he told him that he had not put the Whitland and Cardigan case as favourably as it might be, seeing that they now paid interest to the Great Western Railway Company and to the bank, and that debentures to the Great Western Railway would tuko priority of these charge?, Mr Atcherley promised to lay this further statement before Mr Grierson, so that it might be brought before the Great Western directors next Weduesday. lie had an appointment with Sir Daniel Gooeh on the afternoon of tLe 3rd, to hear the final terms of the Great Western directors. He wished to correct a statement made at the last meeting with regard to the Pembroke and Tenby Railway. It wa3 then stated that the line cost 70 per cent. to work. It had since been shown him by the chairman and secretary that the cost was about 50 per cent only. The former statement was calculated to injure the company, as they had some debentures to place. He had pointed out to Sir Daniel Gooch that in consequence of certain traffic charges of the Great Western Railway Company, the Whitland and Cardigan had overpaid them during the four years to June, 1879, about £326. Sir Daniel Goch promised that this should be con- sidered in the terms of the agreement. The report and accounts were adopted. Messrs Job Griffiths and Col. Saurin were re- elected directors, and Mr Edward James placed on the board iustead of Mr B. Evans, who declined re-election. Mr J. Atcherley was re-elected auditor. Mr J. GRIFFITHS pointed out that during the two years which he had been director the board had effected a saving of about CC65 a year in in- terest and salaries. The usual votes of thanks terminated the pro. ceeduJgc.

GREAT RAILWAY. I The report of the directors of the Great Western Railway to be submitted to the proprietors at the 01st half-yearly general meeting shows that the receipts and expenditure on revenue account for the half-years ending 31st January, 1S80 and 1881, were as follows :— KIIEIPIS. 1S81. 1SS0.

This balance will admit of a dividend on the ordi- nary stock at the rate of 5 per cent per annum, leaving a sum of £ 25,729 143 0d to be carried forward, as against E23,221 153 lid brought forward from the last half-year. The'revenue of the company has ^been seriously affected; by the heavy snowstorms which pre- vailed in the month of January, The line was blocked by the snow to such ah extent as to cause during two days a suspension of the train service over a large portion of the line, and notwithstand- ing the exertions of the staff, several days elapsed before the ordinary train service could be resumed with regularity. The diminution in the receipts attributable to the effects of these storms has not been less than £ 50,000. At the Severn Tunnel the works are progressing satisfactorily. By means of the appliances now available, the contractor has been able to cope with the water in the headings, nnd the difficulties which existed at the period of the last half-yearly meeting have been removed. Under the advice of Sir John Hawkshaw, the construction of the permanent tunnel is being pro- ceeded with under the Severn, where good progre8 ia being made. A contract has' been let for the construction of the Ross and Led- bury Railway between Ledbury and Dymock, So soon as the heavy works on this section are sufficiently advanced, measures will be taken for the construction of the line between Dymock and Gloucester. The new paddle steamship Pembroke, built of steel by Messrs Laird Bros. of Birken- head, has been completed and delivered at Milford, Haven. The cost has been defrayed but of the' fund set apart for depreciation and insurance of. steamships. This vessel is intended for the new Milford and Waterford service; The Employers' Liability Act, to which allusion was made in the last report to the proprietors, came into operation on the 1st of January last. The directors have not at present thought it necessary to avail them- selves of the powers reserved to them in the existing rules to alter the conditions upon which the liberal contribution of the company towards the Pension and Accident Fund has been made, and they do not propose to take any steps in the matter until they are better able to appreciate what may be the operation of the new law as affecting this com- pany. Amongst the items of contemplated ex. penditure which the proprietors at the coming meeting will be asked to vote is a sum of 210,000 on behalf of the Swansea and Clydach Railway. The engineer reports that this line will bja ready for opening when some addititional stations re- cently decided upon are completed. The con- tractor is making good progress with the works at the eastern end of the Coleford Railway. The works towards Monmouth are delayed by a diffi. culty in gaining possession of the necessary land. Among the directors who retire on the present occasion is Mr C, R. M. Talbot, M.P., who seeks re-election.

CORRESPONDENCE. A VOLUNTEER CHALLENGE CUP. TO THE EDITOR. SIR.-Allov,r me through your columns to throw out a suggestion to the volunteers of South Wales and Monmouthshire a3 to the desirability and the practicability of startiug at once a South Wales Challenge Cup, to be shot for this seaaon by teams of corps, companies, or towns, a3 may be hereafter determined. That it would be the means of creat- ing healthy rivalry, and also cement a bond of friendship between the volunteers of South Wales all acknowledge. It may be useful, in selecting a squaa. oo represent Wales, when the Elcho chal- lenge trophy is shot for again by the national "twenties." Since the committee has allowed a Welsh twenty to compete it behoves us to select the best men to represent us. There are several gentlemen in Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, &c., good volunteers who might be named to take this matter up and carry it out.—Yours &c., BULL'S EYE.

Dear Sir,—I have recently suffered much from a moat violent cough, proceeding from a tickling in my chest, which no remedy, out of many I sorted to, could allay. My head was constantly aching, and my whole frame entirely shaken. Having seen the good effects of your BALSAM of ANISEED in several members of my family, 1 purchased a small bottle, and when going to bed at night took a teaspoonful in two table- spoonfuls of water, just warm. The effect waa immediate; it arrested the tickling iU my chest, I slept well, and arose perfectly restored in the morninsr, with the exception of debility, arising from fatigue by incessant coughing for some days previous. My cough entirele left me and lias never returned. Having since heard of a lady in the neighbourhood who for a long time had laboured under a most distressing cough, and who had resorted to every remedy within her knowledge, I sent the remainder of the bottle to her; and that longstanding, obstinate, and (as she thought) incurable cough, was perfectly cured. You are at perfect liberty to make what use you may please of this communication, as the contents are strictly true. I shall tahe every opportunity of recommending your inestimable medicine, feeling as I do fuily assured of its efficacy. I am, my dear, Sir, yours truly, T,) iir Tlios. Powell." WM.
