" ¦ A . meeting of the Iron Screw Couieb Compawt took place on Wednesday , to conflnn pr reject a proposition for selling their fleet of 12 vessels for £ 60 , 000 , which , allowing a deduction on account of certain charges , would leave about £ 57 , 000 ' clear . After some discussion a show of hands was taken , but a ballot was eventually determined upon .

There is about £ 23 , 000 in hand , subject to be reduced by £ 8 , 000 , or possibly twice that 1 amount , ' for a claim decided against the Company in a court of law .

Ijbxtbks fronxHolland mention that , in opposition . to the bill for the new network of railways , an independent member of the Dutch Chamber has introduced a proposal for increasing the amount of the sinking fund on Dutch Government stock , instead of permitr ting it to be diverted as a subvention for railway purposes . The prospectus has been issued of the San Paulo ( Braziman ) Railway Company , with a capital of . £ 2 , 000 , 000 , in shares of jE 20 each . Introduced with a first rate direction , it is proposed to construct and work a railway from Santos to Jundiahy , in the province of San Paulo , under several most valuable privileges . Among these are a guaranteed interest of 7 per cent , per annum for ninety years , on a sum not exceeding . £ 2 , 000 , 000 for works . Of this guarantee , the Imperial Brazilian Government makes itself liable to 5 , and the Provincial Legislature of San . Paulo for 2 per cent . It is said that the Portuguese government has ceded the concession of the South Eastern Railway from Vendas Novas to Evora and Reja to an English company , among the members of which are Mr . Charles Edward Mangles , Mr . John Chapman , Mr . R . R . Nottman , and Mr . G . B . Townsend . This line of railway , if fully developed , must soon become of importance , inasmuch as it traverses the great agricultural and mineral province of Portugal . ^__ ' ¦
