RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE .
A Special Meeting Of The West London Kai...
A special meeting of the West London Kailwat Company is called for the 24 th inst ., to consider a bill before parliament , enabling the company to construct new lines and a dock , also to determine upon the terms of' arrangement with the London and North Western Company . At the annual meeting of the Southern of Fbaxcb Railway Company , held at Paris , the net promts for the year were stated at 3 O 8 , 00 OZ ., from which must be deducted 2 , 140 / ., being the loss on the working of the Canal du Midi . The balance was ordered to be carried to credit of the interest account , which amounted on the 31 st December last to 389 , 000 / . The works of the Cape Town Railway and Dock -Company have been commenced . No further calls are to be made at present , but the shareholders may pay up in advance , and receive interest at the rate of 6 per cent , per annum . According to a statement in the Times the Cork and BandOn Railway are endeavouring to escape the payment of arrears to preference shareholders , notwithstanding the complete definition of the law upon the point obtained by the defeat of the Great Northern directors in an analogous attempt . The adjourned special meeting of the Great Western Company was appointed to be held on Wednesday at the Paddington station , but in consequence of the bills now before Parliament in -which the company were interested being in an incomplete sta , te , the meeting was further adjourned to Wednesday , the 29 th inst . The South-Eastern Railway Compajtst answered a summons on Thursday before the magistrate at Southwark , taken out at the instance of the overseers of Battle , in Sussex . It was complained that the company had refused to make a return of traffic , or permit an inspection of their books , for the purpose of assessment , thereby rendering , themselves liable to a penalty of 3001 , and 5 Ql . a day afterwards . Mr . Burcham decided that the Act on which the claim was grounded had been nullified ( although , probably , through an oversight ) by a subsequent enactment , and the summons must therefoie be dismissed .

The Bank Of Manchester Has Transmitted T...
The Bank of Manchester has transmitted the requisite notice to its customers of its intention to register under the Limited Liability Act . In taking this step the directors point out that they are giving the strongest assurance in their power of "the prosperous and independent state of'the establishment , and of their determination only of doing business of a safe and legitimate nature . " The working capital of the bank is 144 , 9081 .,-with 217 , 3 G 2 Z . remaining to be called up , and the board sXate that they are not afraid to let ita position for the future depend solely on the character of its management .
At the meeting of the Channel Islands Telegraph Company a dividend was declared of 5 s . 6 d . per share , or at the rate of 6 per cent , per annum on the expended capital for the 204 days from the 9 th of September , X 858 , the date of the completion of the undertaking , to the 31 st of March last . « Some facts , " says the Herald , " have transpired with respect to the position of the Alliance ( Paris and London ) Bank which do not improve the prospects of the shareholders . Mr . C . F . Stolces , the late manager , whose departure to America was rather precipitate , has , there can be no doubt ,
involved the affairs of the company to such an extent that the liquidators will experience a very embarrassing task to bring them into anything like a train of adjustment . Surrounded by legal difficulties at every point the claims are of a character which it will require some time to settle , especially in connection with several of the parties who have had business transactions with the'bank . While the liabilities are not very large the assets soem to be constituted of a variety of questionable securities , which , whatever might have been their voluo before , have been considerably depreciated by the late course of events in France . A meeting of proprietors of the London and WKSTMiNflXBU Bank is culled for the 20 th of July . Mr , W . S . Higloy , who has been for twenty years in tho sorvlco of the bank , has been appointed manager at the head qstablishment in Lothbxiry , in tho placo of the lato Mr . W . T . Ilpndoreon j Mr , Gilbert remaining general manager . The directors or" the National Pjrqvinchul Bank of England havo declared a half-yearly dividend , ut tho rate of 8 per cent , per annum , and also a bonus of 7 i por cent ., payable on tho 14 th July ,
