Extract of a Letter from Mr. Thomas Brunton, landlord of the Waterloo Tavern, Coatham, Yorkshire, late of the Life Guards, dated September 28th, 1848. To Professor HOLLOWAY, Sir-For a long time Ia Martyr to Rheumatism and Rheumatic Gout, and for ten weeks previous to usinc your medicines, I was so bad as not to be able to walk. I had tried doctoring and medicines, of every kind, but all to no avail, indeed I daily got worse, and felt that I must shortly (til. From seeing your remedies advertised in the paper I take m, I thought I would. gIve them a trial. I did so. 1 rubbed the Ointment 111 as directed, and kept cabbage leaves to the parts tluckly spread with it, and directed, and kept cabbage loaves to the parts thickly spread with it, and took the pills night and morning. In three weeks I was enabled to walk about for an hour or two in the day with -,t and in seven weeks I could go any where without one. Iain now, by the blessing of God and youi medicines, quite well, and have been attending to my business for morn than seven months, without any ymptoms ot the return of my old complaint. Besides lily case of Rheumatic Gout, I have lately had proof that your Pills and Ointment will heal any old wound or ulcer, as a married woman, living near 111", had had a bad led for four years, which no one could cure, and I gave her some of your Pills and Ointment, which soundly healed it when nothing else would do it. For your information I had the honour to serve my coun- try for twenty-five years in the first regiment of Life Guards, and was eighteen years a corporal. I was two years in the Peninsula War, and was at the Ibttk of Waterloo. I was discharged with a pension on the 2nd September, 1833. The commanding Officer it the time, was Colonel Lvgoii, who is now a General. I belonged to the troop of Captain the Honorable Henry Baring. (Signed) THOMAS BRUNTOX. Cure of a Bad Leg of Twenty-one Years' standing. Extract of a Letter from Mr. Andrew Brack, Blacksmith, Eyemouth, near Berwick, dated the 10th of Aug., 1848. To Profe ssor Holloway, Sir—With pleasure mid gratitude I have to inform you that after suffering for twenty-one years with a bad leg, which yielded to no kind of treatment, Although I consulted, at different times, every medical mail of emi- nence in this part of the country, but all to no purpose. I was frequently unable to work; and the pain and agony I often endured no one can tell. My leg is now as sound as ever it was in my life by means of your Pills and Ointment, which I purchased from Mr. 1. Davidson, Druggist, Berwick-upon-Tweed, who knows my case well, and will, I am sure, be happy to certify with me, if necessary, as to the truth of this wonderful cure. (Signed) AXDHEW BLACK. Amputation of Two Toes Prevented. Extract of a Letter from Mr. Oliver Smith Jenkins, dated Falkirk, August 13th, 1818. Sir, -I was superintending about six months ago, the erection of one of our Railway Bridges, and by the fall of a large stone my right foot, was seriously bruised, which ultimately got so bad, that I was advised to go to Edinburgh to consult some of the eminent Surgeons, which I did, and was told that in order to save my foot, two of my toes must be taken off. In despair, I returned home to impart the n.elancholy news to my wife, intend- ing to submit to the operation it was then a thought struck me to try your valuable Ointment and Pills, which I did, and was by their means in three weeks enabled to resume niv usual m-cupation, and at this time my toes are perfectly enst .1.

LOCOCK'S WAFERS have attained, has induced unprincipled persons to prepare imitations in the form of DLLS, &c., which, from their worthless nature, disappoint the just expectations of the Purchaser, and injure the character of the Genuine Medicine. It is therefore necessary to observe that no Medicine is Genuine but "WAFERS," and that outside every Genuine Box is the Government Stamp in which are the words, DR. LOCOCK'S WAFERS in white letters on a Red Ground. OnsF itvF.-There arc various Counterfeit Medicines, having words on the Stamp, so nearly resembling these, as to mis- lead the unwary. Purchasers must therefore strictly observe the above Caution. Prepared only by the Proprietor's Agents, DA 81 LV A and Co., Bride Lane, Fleet Street, London. Price Is. lt1., 2s. 9d.. and Us. per box.

Please to senil me one dozen boxes by post, as some are waiting for them. One friend, named Amy Calaniore, subject to Astlma. had a box last week, and has already received great benefit from them, although she did not take the whole, as she divided the box among some of her neighbours.

From Mr Edward Page, Director of the Choii and Organist of St. Peter's Catholic Church, Leamington, June 21st, 1848. Gpntlemen-Having- frequently suffered inucli from relax- ation of the throat, f have often been obliged to resort to various preparations; but since I have had the good fortune to try Dr. Locock's Pulmonic Wafers, I am now but seldom obliged to resort to them, for the extraordinary good effects they have produced are most surprising. Even when the throat appears to be completely exhausted, and the voice to be nearly gone, two or three (at 1II0st fourr will, in the short space of half an hour or so, completely restore its flexibility and power, and they do not act as a mere temporary exciting remedy, nor do they leave any lassitude after. Having felt the great value of the remedy, I feel it a duty to generally recommend it, as I am convinced that all persons will find immense benefit from the general and persevering use of it. EDWARD PAGE. The particulars of many hundred Cases may be had from every Agent throughout the Kingdom and on the Continent. Dr. Locock's Wafers give instant relief, and a rapid Cure of Asthmas, Consumptions, Coughs, Colds, and all Disorders of the Breath and Lungs. To Singers and Public Speakers they are invaluable as in a few hours they remove all hoarseness, and increase the power and flexibility of the voice. They have a most pleasant taste.

ARRIVAL OF THE ECROPA FROM…
ARRIVAL OF THE ECROPA FROM AMERICA. V. e (The Times) have received from our Liverpool correspondent a resume of our accounts by the Royal Mail steam ship Europa, arrived in the Mersey, from Halifax, at this morning, after a run of II i days from New York. Our accounts from New York extend to the 8th inst. inclusive. No events in political affairs had transpired. There are no later accounts from Mexico or Cali- fornia. MONTREAL, AUGUST 7. P.M.—The Convention at Kingstown of the delegates from the various leagues at the Canadas has met and adjourned after issuing an address to the people of the Canadas. The city last night agreed to subscribing for £ 125,000 of the stock of the Cortlandt Railway, payable in bonds to fall due after the expiration of o years. Judge Bedard is now suffering from a severe attack of cholera. The interments for the past 24 hours are 14, four of which are of cholera. In the mar kets there is a pretty moderate business doing. NEW YORK, AUGUST S.-The intelligence by the Cambria to the 23rd lilt. has, except in the article of cotton, produced little effect. United States securities rather declined from the dis- appointment as to the demand for them in Europe. Money very abundant. Exchange on London by this steamer has advanced, considerable sales having been effected at 109. The remittance of Pcnsylvania dividends, which we are glad to say were paid on the 1st inst. in full in current coin, helps to run up the rate of exchange. ————————— —————————
INDIA AND CHINA.—THE OVERLAND…
INDIA AND CHINA.—THE OVERLAND MAIL. We (The Times), have received despatches from India and China in anticipation of the mail, which left Bombay and Calcutta on the 2nd of July, Madras on the 9th of the same month, and Hong Kong on the 21th of June. The tranquillity of India had only been disturbed by an insurrectionary movement on a very small scale in the Gwalior territory. Two or three of the leading chiefs, encouraged, as it wotiid seem, by the absence of the usual amount of military force, had taken the field, but sufficient troops were soon collected, under the com- mand of Lieut.-Culonel Graves, to destroy the principal stronghold of the insurgents, and some minor forts which they endeavoured to defend. Rumours were, however, very current that an expe- dition against Gholab Singh would be undertaken as soon as the approach of the cold Reason rendered the movement of troops possible. The conduct of this chief, it will be remembered, was extremely ambiguous throughout the late struggle in the Punjab. Although he owed the possession of his territory to the favour he received at the hands of Lord llardinge, he took no active part in the suppression of Shore Singh's revolt, and it is more than probable that in case of a reverse he would have placed his army at the disposal of that chief, and joined with him in his attempt to drive the British from the Punjab. He has ever since continued to increase his army, although professing the most friendly intentions. These hostile preparations have, it is said, induced Lord Dalhousie to require that he sliall deliver ul) his artillery, consisting of no less than 150 pieces. G holab 's reply is characterist ic. He de- i clares his own willingness to comply with the requisition, but adds that his troops would not permit the guns to be removed. So flimsy an excuse would not, of course, be permitted to avail him, and if it is really true that such a requisition has been made, we may expect to see it enforced by Sir C. Napier. In the mean time, large bodies of Sikhs are said to be flocking towards Cashmere, prepared, no doubt, once more to try the for- tune of war if Gholab should be rash enough to lead them against our troops. A letter of the 15th of June from Wuzeerabad states that an order had been received there to form the 4th troop 1st brigade of Horse Artillery, the -5th Cavalry, Her Majesty's 24th Foot, the 2.5th and 60th Native In- fantry, and other regiments, into a moveable column, ready to start at a moment's notice. Sir C. Napier arrived at Sim!a on the 16th of June, and was expected to proceed almost immediately to Lahore. The heat in all the stations of the Punjab is described as intense, and in Lahore especially the troops j had suffered severely. Lord Dalhousie remained at Simla, and it was said lhat he contemplated summoning the Supreme Court from Calcutta to join him there, as much inconvenience was occasion by their separation. The measure has been long contemplated as a necessary result of the ex- tension of our territory in the north-west. The trial of Moolraj was still proceeding at Ln- hore, and excited much atten tion. The case for the prusecution had just been completed, and was consi- dered to establish his complicity in the murders of Agnew and Anderson. The affairs of the Nizam had at last called for the interference of the Governor-General, his finances ap- pearing to be hopelessly embarrassed. The amount of his debt to the Indian Government is estimated at 54 lakhs of rupees, and either immediate payment or a cession of territory of equivalent value has been de- manded. It will be remembered that for several successive mails mention has been made of some bands of insurgent liohillas in the Nizam's territory, who at first made the pretences of a false Appa Sahib the pretext of their revolt. They have been defeated in another smart encounter by Captain Iloworth of the Nisam's infantry, who, however, died of apoplexy from the intense heat shortly after the action. It is strange that each of the skirmishes with the insurgents should have cost the life of the British officer in command, Brigadier Onslow having been killed by a fall from his horse in the first encounter. We have received by this mail advices from the Mauritius to the 12th of June. The new Governor, Sir W. Anderson, had arrived 011 the 8th, and had been extremely well received. Public affairs are said to wear a hopeful aspect, and the colonists were endea- vouring to accomodate themselves to the change which the abolition of protection had produced. CHINA. We have received intelligence from Hong Kong to the 24th of June. The colony is described as slowly but surely improv- ing. A considerable accession of Chinese settlers had taken place, and nearly all the shops in favourable situations had been occupied. Nor have the European storekeepers been without a share of prosperity. The position of the island is favourable for supplies to California many ships had left, and the place had been swept of all kinds of stores that had been thought suitable. Wooden houses in vast numbers had been constructed and sent to the diggins, and one or two vessels were loading. Considerable (itiail tities of gold had from time to time arrived, but, as yet, none of it as returns for goods sent on English account from China. These were daily looked for, and, if favourable, a con- siderable amount of business would be done in the sup- plies that had recently arrived. The greatest bar, how- ever, to prosperity was the piracy committed upon lIa- tive craft in the adjacent waters. That the pirates are not to be deterred by example seems evident from the fact that a piracy oecurred on the morning of the last execution actually within \iew of the gallows. The principal event of the month had been the com- pulsory liberation, by the Marines of Her Majesty's ship Meander, by order of the Hon. Captain Kcppel, of Mr. Summers, a British subject, who had been imprisoned by order of the Portuguese Governor, either for not taking otf his hat to his Excellency when commanded by him to do so, or for refusing that mark of respect to the procession of Corpus Christi, which lie had ac- cidentally fallen in with in the street. Among the English, there had been scarcely any difference of opinion as to Captain Keppel's conduct on the occasion he had been generally justified both on account of the frivolous nature of the charge, and from the anomalous position of Macao itself, which, until the arrival of Senhor D' Amaral, the present Governor, never asserted any independence of China. At Canton all had been quiet. The new Consul, Dr. Bowriug, had been passing about to various parts of the suburbs. The learned gentleman had hitherto met with no interruption, and it is said ii inclined to consider the Chinese as a very inoffensive people. Sickness had again broken out among the troops, about 150 of whom were in hospital few deaths, how- ever, had occurred. Generally, the other portion of the community was healthy, notwithstanding rather trying weather, the earlier part of the month having been extremely hot, and followed by a very unusual quantity of raiu.

I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.
I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. George John Danvers, Earl of Lanesborough, has been chosen by a majority of rotes to be the peer to sit in the House of Lords of the United Kingdom for Ire- land in the room of John Earl of Mayo, deceased Mr. Thomas Gisborne, formerly M.P. for Nottingham, is the Liberal candidate for Kidderminster. A Mr. Best is his Conservative opponent. Mr. Crawshay Dailey, son of Mr. Bailey, M.P. for Brecknockshirp, announced himself a third candidate on the Protectionist interest but has since retired from the contest. Application has been made for government assistance to establish a college in the island of Ceylon. At York, Mr. Hudson, M.P. obtained a verdict for E1030 against an engineer, named Brunton, Lloyd's surveyor at Sunderland, to whom he had lent 1:1000. The Town Council of Edinburgh has presented the freedom of that city to Sir James Duke, M.P. the Lord Ma yor of London. The Herald and Pandora, surveying ships, returned to the Sandwich islands on the 20th of May, after an unsuccessful search in the North Pacific for Sir John Franklin's expedition. The Court of Directors of the East India Company and the East Indian Railway Company have at length agreed on the terms on which the construction of the 1 proposed Tailway is to be entereu UH. TI.1 will superintend the construction, guaranteeing the shareholders 5 per cent., with an additional 2j per cent. should the future profits of working allow it. At the half-yearly meeting of the North Western Railway Company, held on Friday, a dividend at the rate of L7 per cent, per annum was declared. The turn out of colliers in South Staffordshire ex- | tends, and promises to be universal. About 500 of the I thick coal men in the neighbourhood of Netherton and Brierley-hill ceased work on Thursday. Instead of quietly submitting to a reduction of Gd. per day as pro- posed by the masters, the men now require an advance of Gd. on their previous wages. The Halifax Recorder says that Chief-Justice Halli- burton, author of Sam Slick," &c., intends to retire from public life shortly, on a pension. The Society of Friends have made arrangements for employing a smack of forty tons burthen upon the deer- sea fishery off the coast of Galway. A college for the instruction of youths intended to receive a liberal education, is about to be established in South Australia. The Royal Welsh Eisteddfod was opened at Aber- ffraw, Anglesey, on Tuesday. Mr. Morris Williams, curatc of Amlwch, was the successful candidate for the grand prize, a premium of £1.), and a medal worth f5, for a poem on the Creation. A man named John Drown has been committed to Worcester gaol for one month's imprisonment with hard labour for going into Cleeve Prior Church on Sunday and insulting the clergyman while the congregation were singing. The Commissioners under the W alsall Improvement Act have issued a notice that they are determined to exercise the powers with which they are invested for the immediate removal and prevention of all nuisances injurious to the public health; and they have also given notice that all persons who keep as a lodging-house any house which shall be rated to the poor at a less sum than £10 will be liable to a penalty of 40s.: persons who keep any lodging-house until the same has been registered in a book to be kept by the Commissioners, and made subject to certain rules to regulate the num- ber of lodgers, and to promote cleanliness, are also liable to a penalty of 40s. On Thursday, an Irishman, who had walked from Liverpool to Nottingham, and thence to the Long Eaton station, on the Midland Railway, took a ticket there for Spondon. In his hurry he got into a first instead of a third-class carriage, and before he found out his mistake, the train started. Afraid of the con- sequences, he got under the seat to hide himself, and fell asleep, and in this state he was conveyed to Bir- mingham, where he awoke. He was then returned back to Derby, and thence to Spondon. It is curious that at Taraworth two ladies got into the same compartment of ( the carriage which contained the somnific Irishman, whose presence was never discovered until the train arrived at its destination. The quantity of hard soap exported from Great Bri- tain to foreign parts in the year 1818 amounted lo 10,418,540 lb. and that of soft soap to 13,529 lb. At the Norfolk assizes, a special jury case was en- tered on the cause list, being an action of ejectment, instituted by Mrs. Jenny against the son of Rush, the murderer, to recover possession of the farm at Potash, The defendant, however, agreed to deliver up possession at Michaelmas uext, 011 certain terms which did not transpire. Oil Wednesday evening week an interesting relic was presented to the Conference then sitting in Oldham-street Chapel, Manchester, through Mr. Osborne—namely, the hymn-book used by the venerable founder of Me- thodism, Mr. Wesley, and written with his own hand. The donor is Mr. Samuel Highfield, son of the Rev. G. Highfield, and a condition attached to the gift is, that it should be deposited at Woodhouse-grove school for the inspection of visitors. The Ilull Packet says that on the 10th ult. a fine male fox made his appearance am >ng a flock of lambs, at Owthorne, Yorkshire, and became so much attached to one of them, that he could not be driven away. The lamb also declined to be parted from its strange com- panion, and now the pair are seen daily, seldom far from each other. For several weeks past a farmer residing in St. Mi- chael's-on-Wyre had missed a number of young duck- lings, and as they disappeared at different periods, he was somewhat surprised. He however, discovered the thief; for a few days ago he caught a large eel in a pit, and found one of the lost ducklings in its stomach. STRANGE SCENE AT A CIIRII:TENI-,c,At Iludders- field, on Sunday last, between the conclusion of the morning service and the commencement of the service in the afternoon, there were, as is frequently the case, numbers of persons, of both sexes, congregated round the baptismal font, at the parish church, for the pur- pose of admitting within the pale of Christianity their juvenile offspring. Among others there was one party consisting of father and mother, with their brothers and a sister, all of them apparently decent people, with theni a brother of the mother, and consequently uncle to the neophyte about to be admitted into the church by the sacramental rite of baptism. The rev. gentleman proceeded througl) the service till he came to put the nsasl question to the sponsors—" Name this child." To the astonishment of all present, the uncle, (a rough sailor) taking the child, a boy. from the arms of the mother, and placing him in those of the cler- gyman, distinctly gave the astounding appellation of "Bung your Eye." The clergyman started, the clerk stared in astonishment, while some score or two of other parties smiled and tittered many endeavoured in vain to smother their laughter, but to no purpose. Again, the rev. gentleman (thinking that the question had been misunderstood) asked Name this child." ,Bung your Eye" was again the answer. This was too much for human gravity, and loud laughter followed the reply, when the re- clergyman was forced to turn round to conceal his risible emotions, and recover his suaviter in tnodo. Turning again to the nautical sponsor, he asked, Is it your wish that the child 1, should be baptised in this name ?" With the most imperturbable gravity the seaman replied with an affir- mative bow. "Young man," said the minister, "I wish you would be a little more solemn on this occa- sion." The reply was, How can I be more solemn r" The minister then turning to the mother, inquired if she was willing for her child to be so baptised r She replied with much simplicity, Yes, if it is a right name; I suppose it must be so." The clerk then stepped forward, and inquired if the child had been registered, and in what name ? Yes named James William. On this the clergyman was about to baptise it in the latter name, but the young tar positively interdicted it, and the minister returning the child to its mother very properly refused to baptise it under so strange and unusual a name, and the chris- tening party left the church amid the laughter of the congregation at the font, the clerk advising them to return or. the following Wednesday and have the rite performed in a bpcoming manner. It was understood that the infant was baptised at another church in the district the same afternoon in the name registered.— Leeds Mercury. EXCELLENCE, no matter in what department, must be the child of an ardent general predilection it can never be the offspring of qualifies, however eminent, constrained from their native bias. It is laudable, therefore, to pncu.ra<Tp as far as may bp, the eccentri- city which forms the principal virtue of the human character. There is propriety in fanning the vital s; irk of originality into flame and watching and guarding it, tintil it warms and invigorates its whole neighbour- hood. It is judicious to remove every obstruction to the well-being of those kindly indications of future and novel splendour, which are capable of charming, even in their infantine state. It is well done of the father, when arranging the entrance of his children on the stage of life, carefully to consult their sentiments as to what are desirable situations for its eventful drama. Should he eHrt his authority in opposition to their wishes, the result, it may be safely predicted, will be shame to them, and sorrow to himself. But should he adopt their ideas, und make them the partners of his own thoughts and hopes, should he ri solve to "ive assistance to the ardent conceptions of youth, he will in all probability experience the late happiness of witness- ing in his family the felicitous union of lectitude, prus- perity, and genius.

ALUTS.- Mr. Allies has written a letter to the editor of the TabId' (Roman Catholic paper), intimating that, notwithstand- ing his pledge to the bishop of this diocese, to abstain from publishing a second edition of his notorious work, and to make the Articles of the Established Church the rule of his teaching, he does not withdraw the opinions- he has expressed. In spite of rubrics, he assures the Romish editor that he designs to persevere in the adora- tion of the Sacrament, as practised in the Romish Church, whenever he is present at the celebration of the Lord's Supper, at Launton, or elsewhere: and that he holds that Christ is truly, really, personally and sub- stantially present, under the appearance of bread aId wine after consecration Meanwhile, Father Lecuonn, an eminent Roman Catholic priest, has come forward with a declaration that the doctiine and practice of the rector of Launton is in exact harmony with the teach ing of the Catholic Church. A contemporary adds («c do not know on what authority), th::t Mr. Allies ha4: since left for Italy From the late decision of Sir II J Fust on the baptismal question, and the connivance of such men as Mr. Allies, it is evident that a crisis is fast approaching, which must issue either in the reform of the oiffces of the Church, or in the separation from the Anglican Church of all the clergy who really hold Protestant and Scriptural doctrine.— Oxford Chronicle. THE QUEEN'S LETTER ON HER MAJESTY'S RE- CEPTION IN I H ELAS D.-The following important com- munication has been addressed by the 110rr.e Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland — Royal Yacht, August 13, 1849.—My Lord-It is with sincere plea- sure that I perform the duty which devolves upon me, in obedience to her Majesty's command, of expressing to your Excellency. at the close of b^r Majesty's visit to Ireland, the heartfelt satisfaction which she has derived from her reception in that portion of the United King- dom, and, from the gratifying evidence which uni- versally presented itself, from the time of her Majesty's arrival at Cork to that of her departure from Belfast, of warm r.r.d devoted loyalty and attachment to her throne and person, and of affection for every branch of her family. The circumstances which have attended this visit cannot fail to strengthen the deep interest which, your Excellency is aware, has long being felt by her Majesty in all that concerns the happiness and welfare of her Irish people. Her Majesty rejoiced to observe among the multitudes who enthusiastically greted her appearance the absence of all distinction of (lass and party: and she indulges the hope that the feeling elicited on this occasion may tend to promote among all her faithful subjects in Ireland that union of heart and affection which is essential to the prosperity of thpil common country. I am further commanded <0 assure you of the satisfaction with which her Majesty i-mai ked the general regard and esteem entertained fur your Ex- cellency, which have been so justly earmd by your ablp, judicious, and impartial discharge of the high trust confided to you. I am with great truth and regaid, niy lord, your Excellency's obedient servant, (Signed) G, Grey." THE CROWN PROPERTY IN NORTH WALES.—The. Times of Friday has an article on the assumed malvet- sation of the Crown property in the north of the -)rit- cipality. We make a short extract I'lic Crown property in the northern district of the principality ;s described as of the most valuable nature. It comprises the ancient forest of Snowdon, with several lordships, manors, and royalties. There are many unfranchised moors, wastes, and commons of great extent, nume- rous rivers, streams, lakes, and much valuable shore ground, which are of right Crown property, but which have been jobbed away by the profligacy or recklessness of successive administrations, to reward political ad- herence or secure political partisans. The moors, wastes, and commons, are said to abound with mines, minerals, and rocks of lime and slate. We copy from an account of this property :—' The rocks are capable of producing an inexhaustible supply of slates, hones, setts, flags, and lime. The whole country, in fact, abounds with, and is traversed by, mineral lodes or veins rocks of slate, lime, and building stone of the very best quality, the value of which, as a permanent source of public revenue, no one can correctly estimate. It may with certainty be stated that, with proper management, the Crown property in North Wales is capable of yielding an annual public revenue which, honestly applied, would appreciably diminish the amount of taxes which bear so heavily upon the indus- trious classes throughout the kingdom.' GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—The Half-yearly Meet- ing of the Great Western Railway Company took place at Bristol, on Thursday, and was crowded. The direc- tors and secretary were hissed and cheered on making their appearance. Mr. Russell, chairman of the direc- tors, presided, and commenced business by asking the sanction of the meeting to affix the seal of the company to the register of shareholders of the Berks and Hants Extension Railway, and of the branch to Windsor Mr. Jackson referred to the fact that Mr. Stephens, the solicitor to the company, had misappropriated 1:45,000 of the funds of the Great Western Company, and he wished to know whether Mr. Stevens had produced sa- tisfactory securities, in land or personal and if the latter, what was the nature of the personal security The Chairman said it was true that Mr. Stevens had received A;45,000 for the purchase of land, and other purposes, and that he had not applied the money to those purposes. So soon as the directors became ac- quainted with this circumstance they took every step in their power to secure the company against loss. In the first place, there was a considerable sum of money due to Mr. Stevens in his capacity of solicitor. Then he possessed landed property at Peckham, and he had be- sides property in shares in the company. In addition to this, an arrangement had been made with the firm of which he was a partner, by which considerable savings would accrue to the company and it was due to the other members of the firm to say, that they had no knowledge of the fact of misappropriation made by Mr. Charles Stevens, and were in no degree participators in it. From all these sources he believed that the whole, or at least the greater part of the money would be re- covered tothe company. Mr. Jackson wished to ask if Mr. Saunders, the secretary, was not security for Mr Stevens .0 a large amount ? Mr. Saunders repudiated all connection with Mr. Stevens, and complained of the attacks made on himself, an old and faithful servant of the company. He would rather resign than be sub- jected to these attacks. Mr. Jackson moved an ad- journment, in oider that a committee of intestigatio-ot might be appointed. The motion having been seconded, was put, and lost by a large majority. The Chairman then addressed the meeting at considerable length rela- tive to the ailairs of the company. He said the com- pany was suffering in common with other companies from what had been justly called in the report of a committee emanating from the House of Lords itself, The rash and ill-considered legislation of 1845 and 1846." On comparing the mileage receipts he found that in the four first months of 1S46, viz. from the 1st of January to the 30th of April, they worked 279 miles of railway, and the earnings for that time were £ "*>97 16G which gives a rate of 1:62 2s. 7d. per mile per week. During the same period in the year 184" from the 1 st of January to the 30th of April. they were ?orK;ii,- .,? miles, and that earned £ 304,195 giving as   ^4d. or £ 4 less per ?e ner w/=pt- 11"8 the two months from the 1st of ay t the 3th of June, ?S, they were working ? ?m?.! cs; thel earnings were £ 195,470 giving ?80 7s. lid. peT m''e per week. In the corresponding f- pI | of the year 18'9, they were working 229 miles, Yie"dilig £ 161,044 or at the rate of £ 80 14s. per mile. f "Actors, with a view to economy, had taken off trains to the extent of 11,000 miles a-week, and a further reduction was contemplated in the winter. The expenses had been reduced £30,000 a-vear. The di- rectors'# report stated—" It is impossible that the board should concur in the recommendation of a reduced divi- dend of 4 per cent per annum without the expression of deep regret at the necessity of such a step. It will be perceived by the accounts as now published, that the revenue is charged for the first time with interest 011 a considerable sum expended for lines either abandoned or not in progress, as well as on subscriptions to other railway companies which cannot at present pay any di- vidend or interest to their other shareholders."
