and the Harbor Commissioners have offered to make a very handsome improvement on the site now occupied by it, if it can be obtained.There can be little doubt that the land which would be obtained by the destruction of the present military buildings would amply repay the Government for the outlay on a new barrack, and an enormous gain in every way would thus be made for the eastern part of the city.The City Council have offered a piece of land in exchange for the present military property ; but, unfortunately, General Williams has not felt himself justified in accepting this offer, and all that now seems feasible on the part of our Civic Government is an appeal to the Provincial Government, 1W09 Funeral of the Late A.Hume, Esq.\u2014The funeral of this gentleman, whose sudden death we announced on Wednesday morning, took place on the afternoon of that day from the St.Lawrence Halb A number ot our most respectable citizens were present to testify their respect for an old fellow-citizen, whose death had occurred so suddenly while on a visit to the scene of his former life.Mr.Hume, though he has recently resided in Scotland, and therefore unknown to many of our younger citizens, was several years ago engaged very extensively in mercantile and manufacturing pursuits, in which he acquired a handsome compe tency.He had passed the winter in this coun try for the purpose of making some arrangements respecting his property here, and expected, we believe, to return again to his native country.This intention was frustrated by the sudden stroke of Providence, by which he was cut off.The Rev.Mr.Snodgrass officiated at the funeral, and made some very touching remarks upon the occasion.FRIDAY MORNING, FEB.10, 1860.SEE FIRST PAGE CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.State of the Thermometer in the shade, at the door of Mr.Macpherson, watchmaker and jeweller, corner of St.Francois Xavier and Notre Dame Streets : \u2014 Feb.9\u20149 A.M.30 above zero.2 P.M.36 above zero, a P.M.38 above zero.AUCTION SALES THIS DAY.BY HENRY J.SHAW.Sale of Pianos, &c., at No.19 Great St.James Street, at Three o\u2019clock.Unredeemed Pledges, at Stores of M.Hart à Co., at Seven o\u2019clock.Fancy Goods, &c., at store No.247 Notre Dame Street, at half-past Seven o\u2019clock.PAY YOUR.GAS Ri:.\\T on or before TUESDAY, the 14fh insf., at Mo.54 St.Gabriel Street, anti save 35 per cent discounT.February 10.\t35 Four Days Later From Europe.\u2014The Canadian Ocean Line Steamship \u201c North Briton,\u201d from Liverpool on the 25th ultimo, arrived at Portland on Wednesday night, and her mails reached town yesterday afternoon.A comprehensive summary of the leading features of her news will be found under our telegraphic heading, and we elsewhere add such farther details, from our papers received, as our space permits.The Lkqislature.\u2014The Provincial Parliament has been summoned to meet at Quebec, on Tuesday the 28 th instant,\u2014for dispatch of business.Terrebonne Election.\u2014 The nomination of candidates for the representation of this county in Parliament, came off at St.Jerome on Wednesday.The assemblage of electors was un-precedently large\u2014there being, it was calculated, from four to five thousand people on the ground.The ex-represeutative,\u2014 the lately exalted member of His Excellency\u2019s Executive Council,\u2014the Honorable Mr.Morin, Q.C., was proposed by N.Daunais, Esq , of St.Anne des Plaines, seconded by Dr.Laroque, of St.Jerome.Mr.Laviolette was then proposed by Capt.P.E.Marier, of Terrebonne, and seconded by C.S.Burroughs, Esq., of St.Andrews.A show of bauds being called for by the Returning Officer, J.A.Hervieux, Esq., he declared it to be in tavor of Mr.Morin ; when, a poll being demanded, on the part of Mr.Laviolette, it was fixed for the 15th and the 16th instant, on which days it will be held in the different parishes throughout the county.Notwithstanding the power ot the Government, and the shamefully unscrupulous manner in which it has been brought to bear upon the electors, our accounts from the county are most favourable to the return of Mr.Laviolette.The French Bishops on \u201c Le Pape et le Congres.\u201d\u2014The Archbishop of Paris has resigned his seat in the Imperial Council, and it is said that many of the French Bishops are prepared, on the first signal from Rome, to launch their anathemas at the head of the \u201c Eldest son oi the Church.\u201d Rome, however, hesitates to give the signal.In the meantime, two of their Lordships have broken silence and made their appeals to the faithful\u2014the one sustaining the other condemning the principles and policy to be found in the now famous pamphlet.His Lordship of Nimes has issued, what may be called a mandement to his clergy, although it is in the modern form of a mere counter-pamphlet.He commences as follows :\u2014 \u201c Tho author of the anonymous pamphlet has thought proper to conceal his name.He has done well, as his productions shows him to be without frankness of sentiment, without elevation of character, without value in doctrine, and even without prestige in literature.But to judge of his situation by the noise made about his work, he must have importance in the press or in the world.\u201d Towards the conclusion are these words:\u2014 \u201c If the humiliation to which the author of the pamphlet has given the support of independent Catholicism and his revolting sophisms be accomplished, frightful catastrophes will take place in the world.But, sooner or later, this eclipse will have its term, and while in the other life God, whose judgmenis are terrible, will demand of tho author an account of the evil that he has committed, and the throne of the Vatican will again be raised\u2014that throne which for so many centuries has covered with its glory the ancient capital.\u201d On the other hand, Monseigneur Cœur, the Bishop of Troyes, has issued a pastoral epistle to his clergv, in which he reminds them that they should \u201c give unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar\u2019s,\u201d and devote themselves solely and exclusively to their spiritual duties.He tells them\u2014and what enlightened Catholic or Protestant will dispute the soundness of his doctrine 7\u2014 :\u2014 \u201c By ourselves we are nothing and can do nothing ;

that the timbers and floorings were in every respect constructed and located as he originally designed ; that the inner supports of cast iron, previous to the erection had his approval, and were by him adopted as in all pans safe and secure ; that such inspection as he required was given to the iron pillars, and that any want of skill in designing, any error of judgment in approving or adopting, any want of due care and caution in properly testing the different portions of the structure on his part appearing, to that extent rendered his responsible for the direful catastrophe Loss of theSteamshipNothernsr\u2014and Thir-ty-Sjx Lives Lost.\u2014The following despatch, says the N.Y.Tribune of Tuesday, was received yesterday alternoon by Mr.W.H.Davidge : San Francisco, Jan.14, 1860\u2014 5 via Malloy Station ;

The second Session of the Sixth Parliament of Queen Victoria was opened yesterday amid all those circumstances of regal pomp and solemn ceremony which befit the annual celebration of these birthdays of our constitution.How is it that this ceremony, always the same, is yet always new?There is something in it beyond the mere splendour of pageantry.There is always a fresh impressiveness about the reassembling of the great deliberative as sembly of the world\u2014there is a sublime meaning in the rich splendour which surrounds the scene\u2014there is a knowledge that the meeting is called together to minister to the progress of almost half the human race, which raises the ceremonial high beyond the sphere of routine grandeur, and marks each repetition of it a conspicuous epoch in the annals of freedom and civilization.Yesterday the interest seemed as keen and as lively as ever, even out of doors, where the streets were muddy and the weather certainly not that popularly known as \u201c Queen\u2019s weather.\u201d Precisely at a quarter-past 2 the doors are thrown open, the House rises, and amid a long flourish of trumpets, the procession preceding Her Majesty enters the House.The Heralds are first, bowing stiffly in their awkward gorgeous tabards as they pass the Princesses, the King-at-Arms carrying his loyalty as far as to bow alternately to them and to the empty throne.Then come Earl Granville with the Sword of State ; the Marquis of Winchester, with the Cap of Maintenance ; the Marquis of Salisbury, with the Crown ; the Duke of Norfolk, with his baton as Hereditary Earl Marshal; the Lord Chancellor, with the Great Seals.Her Majesty was superbly robed in silver tissue, with a train of crimson velvet lined with ermine.A magnificent stomacher of diamonds completely concealed the front of the dress, and on her head was the high massive demi-crown of brilliants usually worn on these occasions.Prince Albert, in the uniform of a field-marshal, aits on the left of the throne.Her Majesty having requested their Lord-ships to be seated, the Commons were forthwith summoned, the interval which elapsed was passed in solemn silence\u2014the Queen, contrary to her custom, not speaking to any of the high personages who stood around her, the \u201c faithful Commons,\u201d being selected by-ballot, not now, as formerly, rushing in like the gods in the gallery on Boxing Night ; on the contrary, they came steadily up to the bar, the Speaker leading, on his right Lord Palmerston.Just, however, as the Speech was begun there was a good deal of noise, which occasioned a general \u201c hushing,\u201d and brought the Queen almost to a pause, but after this the most rigid silence prevailed.Her Majesty read as follows :\u2014 \u201c My Lords and Gentlemen, \u201cIt is with great satisfaction that I again meet you in Parliament, and have resource to your assistance and advice.\u201c My relations with Foreign Powers continue to be on a friendly and satisfactory footing.At the close of the last session I informed you that overtures had been made to me to ascertain whether, if a Conference should beheld by the great Powers of Europe, for the purpose of settling airangements connected with the present state and future condition of Italy, a Plenipotentiary would be sent by me to assist at such a Conference.I have since received a formal invitation from the Emperor of Austria and from the Emperor of the French to send a Plenipotentiary to a Congress, to consist of the Representatives of the eight Powers who were parties to the Treaties of Vienna of 1815 ; the objects of such Congress being stated to be, to receive communication of the treaties concluded at Zurich ; and to deliberate, associating wi'.h the above-mentioned Powers the Courts of Rome, of Sardinia, and of the Two Sicilies, on the means best adapted for the pacification of Italy, and for placing its prosperity on a solid and durable basis.\u201c Desirous at all times to concur in proceedings having tor their object the maintenance of peace, I accepted the invitation, bit at the same time I made known that, in such a Congress, I should steadfastly maiutain the principle that no external force should be employed to impose upon the people ot Italy any particular Government or Constitution.\u201cCircumstances have arisen which have led to a postponement of the Congress, without any day having been fixed for ils meeting ; but, whether in Congress or in separate negotiation, I shall endeavour to obtain for the people of Italy freedom from foreign interference by force of arms in their iuternai concerns, and I trust that the affairs of the Italian Peninsula may be peacefully and satisfactorily settled.\u201cPapers on this subject will soon be laid before you.\u201cI am in communication with the Emperor of the French with a view to extend the commercial intercourse between the two countries, and thus to draw still closer the bonds of friendly alliance between them.\u201cA dispute having arisen between Spain and Morocco, I endeavoured, by friendly means, to prevent a rupture ; but, I regret to say, without success.\u201c1 will direct papers on this subject to be laid before you.\u201cMy Plenipotentiary and the Plenipotentiary of the Emperor of the French having, in obedience to their instructions, proceeded to the mouth of the Peiho river, in order to repair to Pekin to exchange in that city the ratifications of the Treaty of Tien-tsin, in pursuance of the 56th Article of that treaty, their further progress was opposed by force, and a conflict took place between the Chinese forts at the mouth of the river and the naval forces by which the Plenipotentiaries were escorted.\u201c The allied forces displayed on this occasion their usual bravery, but, after sustaining a severe loss, were compelled to retire.\u201clam preparing, in concert and co-operation with the Emperor of the French, an expedition, intended to obtain redress and a fulfilment of the stipulations of the Treaty of Tientsin.\u201c It will be gratifying to me if the prompt acquiescence of the Emperor of China in the moderate demands which will be made by the Plenipotentiaries shall obviate the necessity for the employment of force, \u201c I have directed that papers on this subject shall be laid before you.\u201c An unauthorised proceeding by an officer of the United States in regard to the Island of San Juan, between Vancouver's Island and the mainland, might have led to a serious collision between my forces and those of the United States.Such collision, however has been prevented by the judicious forbearance of my naval and civil officers on the spot, and by the equitable and conciliatory provisional arrangement proposod on this matter by the Government of the United States.\u201c I trust that the question of boundary out of which this affair has arisen may be amicably ¦ settled in a manner conformable with the just rights of the two countries, as defined by the first article of the Treaty of 1847.\u201c The last embers of disturbance in my East Indian dominions have been extinguished ; my Viceroy has made a peaceful progress through the districts which had been the principal scene of disorder, and by a judicious combination of firmness and generosity my authority has been everywhere solidly and, I trust, permanently established.I have received from my Viceroy the most gratifying accounts of the loyalty of my Indian subjects, and of the good feeling evinced by the native chiefs and the great landowners of the country.The attention of the Government of India has been directed to the development of the internal resources of the country, and I am glad to Inform yon that an improvement has taken place its financial prospects.\u201cI have concluded a treaty with tho Tyroon of Japan, and a treaty regarding boundaries with the Republic of Guatemala.I have directed that these treaties shall be laid before you.\"Gentlemen of the House of Commons, \u201c I have directed the estimates for the ensuing year to be laid before you.They have been prepared with a view to place the military and naval services and the defences of the country upon an efficient footing.\u201cI am glad to be able to inform you that the publie revenue is in a satisfactory condition.\"My JLords and Gentlemen, \u201c I have accepted with gratification and pride the extensive offers of voluntary service which I have received from my subjects.This manifestation of public spirit has added an important element to our system ot national defence.\u201cMeasures will be laid before you for amending the laws which regulate the representation of the people in Parliament, and for placing that representation upon a broader and firmer basis.I earnestly recommend you to resume your labours for the improvement of our jurisprudence, and particularly in regard to bankruptcy, the transfer of land, the consolidation of statutes, and such a further fusion of law and equity as may be necessary to insure that, in every suit, the rights of the parties may be satisfactorily determined by the court in which the suit is commenced.\u201c I am deeply gratified to observe that the great interests of the country are generally in a sound and thriving condition ; that pauperism and crime have diminished ; and that, throughout the whole of my empire, both in the Uniied Kingdom and in my colonies and possessions beyond sea, there reigns a spirit of loyalty, of contentment, of order, and ot obedience to the law.\u201c With heartfelt gratitude to the Almighty Ruler of nations for these inestimable blessings, I fervently pray that His beneficent power may guide your deliberations for the advancement and consolidation of the welfare and happiness of my people.\u201d The instant the Speech was done, the Royal procession quitted the building in the same order in, which it entered, and the bright assemblage broke up, every one seeming in a hurry to get away as fast as possible, and leave the session of I860 to its long list of work.THE GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY.(From the London Times.) A report on the state and prospects of the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada at the commencement of this year by Mr.Blackwell, its Vice-President and Manager, has just been issued.It is of an encouraging character, although, as the line has until now been in an incomplete and exceptional state, there is no direct experience by which the calculations of success can be absolutely tested.The opening of the Victoria bridge, and also of the section between St.Mary\u2019s and Detroit, have at length brought the undertaking\u2014comprising more than a thousand miles\u2014into unbroken operaiion, and from this moment the growth of its traffic will constitute one of the most interesting questions in railway history.The company will now be able to transport goods 1,400 miles, from the Atlantic to the Mississippi with bat one trans-shipment and a saving, it is alleged, of five days over all other routes.\u2014 The two most important staples of the industry of the world\u2014cotton and grain\u2014should therefore be its tributaries on one side, and the manufacturers ot Europe on the other, combined with a large share of the mail and rapid passenger traffic, and the greater portion of the emigrant business between the two hemispheres.But there are drawbacks to render the experiment an anxious one.These relate to the ability ol such a line of railway to compete with the vast water conveyance of the lakes, the intuitive objection of all people to a northern, as compared with a more southern ocean passage, and the difficulty of drawing trade, whatever may be the future advantages presented, from old established centres.It may probably, therefore, be many years before New York will be effected by the change, and, indeed, the marvellous extension of that port will most likely continue with undiminished rapidity, even if Portland or Quebec should make analogous strides.The business to be opened up is so vast that new facilities in one direction are certain to produce increased activity in every other.Mr.Blackwell does not overlook the fact that the great future of the work must be in a gradual and continuous rather than a sudden develope-ment, and he theretore cautions the shareholders against any other sangnine calculations for the moment, especially as the country is only just recovering from the results of bad harvest and the crisis of 1867.He sets forth, however, rational grounds for anticipating that the trade even of the current year will be suoh as to revive their confidence in the value of the property.The report is accompanied by maps and tables of a description apparently more circumstantial and elaborate than any yet furnished in this country in relation to railway management.ment of the Bankruptcy Law to be brought forward, but that the transfer of land, the consolidation of the statutes, and an approach to the fusion of law and equity will also be presented to the attention of Parliament.These matters, in addition to the measure of Parliamentary Reform, which is to be introduced on the 20th of February, make up the Government billoffare.lfthey carry these measures they will richly deserve the gratitude of the country, which looks to the year I860 to make up for the deficiencies of the last three Sessions of Parliament.But, if Lord Palmerston and bis colleagues have much to do, they have certainly great opportunities for doing it.Never did a Government meet Parliament with greater advantages ; with the country prosperous, wuh peace again smiling on Europe, with a public which demands only certain definite reforms not difficult of accomplishment, it will be the fault of the Ministers themselves if they sink into embarrassment and unpopularity.THE \u201c TIMES\u201d ON THE QUYEN\u2019S SPEECH Her Majesty met Parliament yesterday with words of congratulation on her lips.On every side there are evidences, as far as human sagacity can judge, that a period of peace and improvement has begun which may make Europe forget the disturbances of the past twelve years.Although the soil of Italy is strewn with the relics of war and the fate of the country is still undecided, yet it may be said that Europe is at peace, and that either policy, or commercial enterprise, or the exhaustion produced by hostilities, has predisposed its most powerful nations to live in friendship with each other.The Queen was able also to point to the success of her Government in dealing with the questions which have been raised during the past year.No clearer instance can be given of the strength which a just and disinterested co.rse of action achieves than the position to which England has attained by her condnct during the last six months.Without having taken any part in the war, without even sparing her rebukes for those who needlessly disturbed the public tranquility after listening for a while to the objurgations of all the parties who thought themselves deceived or deserted, the policy of England has been accepted by the principal actor in the European drama, and the Italians are eager to admit that in England they have found the most honest and consistent of their defenders.So much has been said about the Italian question and the Congress that we may content ourselves with the remark that the policy of the English Government has now been solemnly avowed, and that Her Majesty promises that \u201c whether \u201c in Congress or inseperate negotiation, she \u201cwill endeavour to obtain for the people of \u201c Italy freedom from foreign interference by \u201c force ot arms in their internal concerns.\u201d The international arrangements for the facilities of commerce between England and France were worthy of a leading place in the Royal Speech.The Queen of England has often addressed her Parliament respecting economical changes to be adopted by our own Legislature, but this is the first time Her Majesty has b.eeh able to indicate that as soon as prejudices still formidable can be overcome and temporary difficulties removed the example of England will he followed by one of (he leading nations of the earth.Although we most earnestly deprecate the system of \u201c negotiating\u201d financial arrangements between independent nations, and our objections were echoed by the leaüers in both houses, we may be allowed to rejoice at the fact that the good understanding between England and France has emboldened the Emperor to propose reforms which none of his predecessors had dared to approach.Two more subjects connected with our foreign policy are mentioned in the Royal Speech\u2014our relations with China, and our right to the Island of San Juan.With respect to the former there is but one feeling among the public.A speedy settlement, and the most peaceful settlement with our national honour, is desired by every one.Never had we a war which created so little enthusiasm.It may almost be said to have been forgotten before it is begun.The truth is we have had Asiatic wars enough, and that wars with China in particular neither inflame the imagination nor appeal to the self-interest of the nation.The mixed character of the Cabinet, containing as it does many men who voted against Lord Palmerston in 1857 on the former Chinese difficulty, prepared us tor the {passage in the Royal Speech which hints that an arrangement is not impossible.It is in the power of the Emperor of China even now to avert by timely concessions the march of an Anglo-French Army to Pekin.Probably some addition to the terms of the Treaty of Tien-tsin might be demanded if the troops of the two nations had really made good their fooling in the Chinese capital, but at present nothing more than the fulfilment of the former stipulations is desired, and Her Majesty speaks significantly of the \u201c moderate demands\u201d which will be made by the Plenipotentiaries, and the \u201c prompt acquiescence\u201d by which the Emperor of China may disarm our hostility.The San Juan difficulty is disposed of in a few words, justice being done to the conduct of the American Government and the to spirit of conciliation which Mr.Buchanan has displayed.^Domestic questions have for some minds lit-lé interest.In the blaze of international controversy the modest merits of home reforms are forgotten, or thought worthy only of the attention of second rate minds.This, however, though it may be a fault of statesmen, is not a fault of the public, which, indeed, generally errs on the other side, thinking more of Church-rates and the purification of the Thames than of the fate of Mexico or of Morocco.A Queen\u2019s Speech without allusiou to all the principal domestic topics would be a very unsatisfactory affair, and the Ministry of Lord Palmerston is not likely to commit the mistake of overlooking them.The Rifle Corps have necessarily the first place in Her Majesty\u2019s thoughts, and she accepts the services of the Volunteers with pride and gratification.The Law Reforms close the list of subjects referred to by her Majesty, and we learn that not only is Sir R.Bethell\u2019s bill for the Araead- THœo^N?J[IAL GENERAL MEETING OF JVi0N1REAL AND CHAMPLAIN RAILROAD COMPANY.Wednesday, February 8, 1860.The Hon.James Ferrier was called to the tary1** \u2019 Mr* Merry was appointed Secre- The following Report was submitted and read by the secretary :_ To the Shareholders op the Montreal and Champlain Railroad Company: Gentlemen,\u2014The Annual Report which your Directors have now the pleasure of making, if it do not present many features of change or novelty, embraces matters of interest.The Statements herewith submitted, shew the the year just closed, to be $224,-429 94; the current expenditure $118,814 90 (or less than o3 per cent, of the earnings) leav-Ln^aoob^lance $105,615 04 as net gain\u2014this is $2,283 in excess of last year.Ot this snm $94,720 69 has been paid as interest on bonds and floating debt, and the balance has been applied to the redemption of bonds falling due within the year, and to the payment of other debts.As compared with the previous year, there has been an increase in the total revenue of $3,448 99 ; although this appears small, it must be borne in mind that in the years 1857 and 1858, there was a large amount of special earnings from the Y j -.'ia Bridge Works, wUiCi?have s'nce ceased.Notwithstanding, the total revenue has advanced, and from branches of general business which are likely to increase still more during the coming year.Ihe passenger and local traffic have both improved, and the foreign or tlrough business generally, has assumed an appearance of steadiness which holds out every reasonable expectation of its permanence.In the last Report of your Directors, allusion was made to the opening of the Stanstead, Shef-ford and Chambly Railroad, from St.Johns to .Farnham; this has since been followed by the opening for traffic of a further section to Granby.The anticipations that this road would become a valuable connection to that of your Company, have been realised ; and the benefits of its further extension to Waterloo, which is looked for next summer, must have a marked effect upon the revenue of your Company.The opening out of the fine rich country through which it passes, has attracted both capital and enterprise from the neighbouring States, and already the various products of the forest and the settled lands, find their way to the markets of the South and East, as also to Montreal, over your road.The trade between the latter, and those Townships which have the advantage of communication with it by this line, has largely developed itself and is steadily increasing, and will continue to extend with the growth-of the road and the consequent settlement of the country.The usual attention has been given to the roads, tracks, rolling stock, &c., all of which are in good and efficient working order and condition ; and, as the principal bridges have lately been renewed, no outlay of any magnitude, under this head, can reasonably be expected for some years.The Steamer \u201c Iron Duke \u201d suffered considerable damage during a gale last fall, and is now undergoing a thorough repair.She will be rea-dy to take her berth in spring.Tlie freedom from accidents for which your Company has been remarkable, is still a matter of congratulation, and your Directors are again able to record, with thankfulness, the fact, that no person has been injured during the past year, nor has the life of a passenger ever been lost since the commencement of the Company\u2019s operations twenty-four years ago.The opening of the Victoria Bridge in December has had no appreciable effect upon the business of your Company.No arrangements have ypt been entered into with the Grand Trunk Company, for a business connection at St.Lambert.Hereafter, when arrangements may be effected, which no doubt will be the ease, although not in immediate prospect, the connection with the West, now possessed by that Company, will afford facilities for the transport of Western produce for distribution in the Eastern States, over your line, superior to any at present existing.It is most probable this connection would have been efteeted ere this, had not the Grand Trunk Company changed their original plan of crossing your road at that plane, on the level, and adopted the more expensive, but loss dangerous one, of an over bridge crossing.Early in the season of 1859, negotiations were opened with the Grand Trunk Company, for the lease of part of your Company\u2019s terminus grounds at Bonaventure street.The subject engrossed much of the attention of your Directors, and every effort was made by them to bring matters to a satisfactory conclusion.The terms proposed by your Company seemed to meet the views of the Grand Trunk Management, and for some time there was every prospect of a final arrangement being effected ; however, the Vice-President of the Grand Trunk Company, through whom these negotiations were being carried on, at length expressed his opinion that the extent of the accommodation which your grounds afforded might, at a future period, be found too limited, and he did not deem it expedient to recommend the adoption of the plan to his Company.Your Directors regretted this termination to the negotiations, having been assured that the terms and conditions upon which they offered the grounds, possessed many advantages to the Grand Trunk Company.It is the intention of your Directors to recommend to their successors, to apply to the Legislature for powers to consolidate certain portions of their present debt, so as to give increased security to Bondholders, and at the same time, reduce the gross amount of interest now payable, and distribute the payments more conveniently.The revenue of the past year, after paying all working expenses, and the entire interest on the Company\u2019s debts, left a surplus of $10,894.__ Your Directors estimate that the receipts for the present year, will exceed those of the past; and that the expenses will be kept within the same limits as last year, while the interest to be paid will be less, being $93,188 against $94,720.If may be mentioned that, the receipts in the first month of the present year, shew an increase over January 1859, of thirty per cent.Your Directors lately made an application to the Corporation of the City, for a grant of land for the purpose of a central terminus, hereafter to be used as a Union Station by all other Railroad Companies entering the city.They also applied for the opening out, by the city, of Craig Street to Bonaventure Street, with permission to your Company to lay a track from
