Dorking - Petty Sessions - Jan.7 - Before Admiral Sir Leopold Heath (in the chair), A.Powell Esq., and L.M.Rate Esq.
The Hour of the Bench Sitting - The Chairman aksed the reporters to again note that the Bench meet at eleven, and not twelve o'clock as formerly, remarking that this hint might be advantageous to the Dorking community. The public generally did not appear to know the present hour of meeting.

Extensions - Mr J.T.Maybank (hon. sec. of the Dorking and Reigate and Redhilll Licensed Victurallers' and Beerhouse-keepers' Protection Society), applied for extension on the following dates, which were granted:- To Mr Ambrose Sanders, Running Horse, Michelham, on January 11th, 12th, and 13th; to Mr George Graves, Red Lion Hotel, Dorking, on January 12th, 13th (tradesmen's ball), and 24th (bachelor's ball); and to Mr Geroge Millon, the Star, Dorking, on January 24th.
Game Trespass - Robert Ridler and James Gander the younger, engine drivers, both of Abinger, and Charles Mills, of Shere, bricklayer, were summoned for a game trespass upon land in the possession and occupation of Mr William Bacon, of Park Farm, Wootton, on the 16th Dec. - - - The Bench imposed a fine of 5s. each and costs, nothing previously being known against the defendants. - The mother of one of the defendants had written to the Magistrates to say that her son knew he was guilty.
Assaulting a Landlord on Boxing-Day - James Bird, of Wootton, labourer, was summoned for assaulting Richard Jordan, at Wootton, on the 26th of December:- Complainant, who is the landlord of the Stephen Langton beer-house, in Wootton parish, stated that on the morning of Boxing Day defendant was in his house creating a disturbance with another man, and wanting to fight. He told them if they wanted to find to leave his premises and go on the common, as he would not allow it on his premises. They went outside, where defendant took off his coat, and, using some bad language, said he would re-enter. Complainant tried to prevent him, when defendant struck him.  - - - 

Breaking a Fence. - Jane Arthur and Gertrude Emily Simmonds, girls, of Dorking, were summoned for maliciously breaking and throwing down part of a fence, the property of Mr William Payne, of the Holmwood, farmer, thereby doing damage to the amount of 3d., on the 28th December. - Prosecutor deposed to seeing the defendants commit the offence. They broke the wood up, and then tied it up. The fence was an ordinary hedge made last year, such as one as is made after the underwoods are cut. - Sir Leopold Heath said he happened to know that the father of Simmonds was a very respectable man, which was all the more reason that his family should conduct themselves in a proper manner. Defendants would be fined 5s. each, without costs. 

Cattle Straying - Edward Randle, William Brown, Jas. Stonestreet, and Francis Blackwell Bryant appeared to answer summonses for allowing cattle to stray in South St, Dorking, and were fined 1s. per head and costs.

Edward Davis, of Effingham, cattle dealer, was fined in a similar penalty for a like offence. 
Disgraceful Conduct - Henry Wood, a youngt man, was summoned for drunkenness on the highway, in Mickleham parish on the 27th Dec. - Defendant, who was guilty of disgraceful conduct, was fined 5s. and costs. Sir Leopold Heath remarked that the penalty was made smaller because the costs were rather heavy.

Alleged Infringement of the Licensing Act. - Alfred Amey, landlord of the Cricketers' beerhouse, South St, Dorking, was summoned for keeping his house ope for the sale of intoxicating liquors during unlawful hours, on the 28th Dec.  - - - Defendant denied that any liquor was drawn or drank after the prohibited time, and said the case was brought forward by the inspector out of spite, for the making of which assertion he was remonstrated with by the Bench unless he had evidence to prove what he stated. - Supt. Lambert confirmed the inspector's statement as to the time the witness was with him, and said the distance from the Bull's Head to the Cricketer's was some 400 yards. 
- Sir Leopold Heath: I do not think is a question of a few minutes, but of the character of the house. 
- Supt Lambert said there was no previous complaint against the house. 
- The Chairman (Sir Leopold Heath) announced that the Magistrates dismissed the case, on the ground that nothing was seen by the inspector to show that the liquor was drawn after hours.The four men were perfectly sober and quitted the premises directly they were told of the hour, whilst it seemed it was the practice to give a landlord a few minutes, though it must be a warning to defendant not to stretch that limit, which the Magistrates had no doubt, whatever he did on this occasion.  - - -

County Ball - The re-union took place at the Public Hall on Friday night last, and for brilliancy and number of the assembly compared most favourable with any like occasion. The hall and its appendages were most charmingly decorated for the occasion by Mr J. W. Kendall,of the High St, who succeeded in producing a most harmonious blending. The entrance hall was carpeted; a number of trees and lamps appearing at the side. This passage, so  soon as dancing commenced, was divided by a curtain, and a number of seats were placed thereon were much requisitioned by many of the guests who wished for a few moments repose apart from the intoxicating waltz or the intricate quadrille.The entrance staircase had a covering of claret-coloured cloth with a pretty edging, large mirrors being also placed on each: and in the ball-room itself much had been done by the decorator.  - - -

The guests began to arrive about half-past nine o'clock, at which time a large number of people had assembled to witness the arrivals. Dancing commenced at ten o'clock, to the strains of Coote and Tinney's band, and was carried on with much vigour until about half-past three on Thursday morning. We believe the number present - 250 in all - exceeded any previous like gathering for some year past. The stewards were Colonel Seymour, of Brockham Park, Betchworth, and Mr Lionel Rickards, Epsom. Amongst those present were  - - - Admiral Sir Leopold Heath and party (Holmwood), - - - Mr and Mrs Broadwood and party (Holmwood),  -- - Mrs Rohde Hawkins and party (Redlands, Holmwood),  - - -

The Belfast Central Railway Company - London, Monday
An adjourned general meeting of the above company was held to-day the offices of the company, 41, Coleman Street, City—Mr. Alex. Young presiding. 

The Chairman said he had to state with some regret that, having regard to the complicated and numerous questions which they had had to deal with, it had been, and was even now, impossible to present the resolutions, which would be unanimously accepted by the shareholders, with reference to matters with which they had proposed to deal at the present adjourned meeting. He had hoped there were some of the matters upon which the parties interested might have been able to agree, so as to have disposed of part of the business today, but finding that it was not easy to come into accord with reference to a part the proceedings unless the whole of the arrangements were completed, the directors thought it better that, in order to avoid any further meeting like the present, they should adjourn sine die, on the understanding that as soon the various arrangements contemplated had been agreed upon the parties interested, a notice should be issued, calling the shortest possible date another meeting for the despatch the business. He would therefore move that the meeting stand adjourned sine die. 

Sir Leopold Heath seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously, Mr. Buffen asked what was the immediate object of the adjournment. The Chairman replied that the object was to give time to arrive at a complete and unanimous understanding between the various shareholders who were interested in the matters which had to be disposed of. 
The present meeting was called for various purposes. Those purposes had not been accomplished in time so to admit the resolutions being proposed in that form and manner would render them acceptable to all parties. Consequently they would make no attempt to propose or to carry them on the present occasion. More time was required iu order arrive complete and and proper understanding between all parties interested before the business could carried through. Mr. Buffen thanked the chairman, and the proceedings then terminated.

Imperial Credit Company
The third ordinary general meeting - was held at Cannon-street Hotel on Tuesday, Jan. 31; Mr. William Tipping in the chair. The report having been taken as read, the Chairman stated that the board were not surprised at the shareholders having become tired of the policy of the board, a part of which policy had been that the company's affairs should not be divulged. While the board felt that that policy was in the interests of the company in the peculiar position in which it was placed, they had nothing to reproach themselves with. He would not pretend that the board had always been infallible, but they had always acted in the interest of the company to the best of their ability. (Hear, hear.) Now, the shareholders knew there had been a counter movement expressing that the shareholders were tired of the system carried out by the board. The board accepted such an expression of feeling as reasonable, and both sides, after consultation, bad felt that they must follow the duty rather than the dictates of their amour proper. He had felt that it was of vital importance that the continuity of the board should not be wholly disturbed, as the position of the company was never better than now.  - - - 

The resolution for the adoption of first part of the report and the accounts was then carried unanimously. On the proposal to replace three of the present directors by the three new ones,-
The Chairman said the retiring directors would be Sir Leopold Heath K.C.B.,  Sir H.M.Jackson Bart., and Sir Thomas Dakin. He read letters from the two former, placing their resignations in his hands, and explained that Sir Thomas Dakin was in the South of France for the benefit of his health.

Congleton Board of Guardians

The following letter was read from the nephew of the Misses Marsh-Caldwell:- "I find that the land on the Bank Farm over which the Sanitary Board proposes to run sewerage is held in trust by the Misses Marsh Caldwell and is not part of the Lindley Wood estate. They are therefore liable for any depreciation in value which the land may suffer through the steps taken by them while holding the said land in trust. I find also that the portion of the land in question is intended at some future period for building purposes. It is evident, therefore, that if sewage were run over it it would be rendered most undesirable for this purpose. I am, therefore, advised that the only way in which the land can be granted to the Sanitary Board without endangering the interests of the Trust is that the said Board should purchase the land and pay due compensation for depreciation of the adjoining land."

The Chairman enquired if they could not turn the sewage upon other land. Mr Hill said that Mr Plant's land would be suitable provided a settling tank were put down. The Chairman  - Is he willing to take it? Mr Hill replied that he was willing to do so. It would cost them more on account of the settling tank. - - - Mr Hill also reported two deaths from scarlet fever and one from typhoid at Biddulph.

Falmouth Docks Company.

A half yearly meeting of the shareholders of the Falmouth Docks Company was held on Tuesday at their offices, Falmouth, Mr Howard Fox, chairman of the directors, presiding. - - - 
The substitution of steam for sailing power, and of large vessels for small ones rendered it essential for the shareholders in the Falmouth Docks Company to turn their attention to the prompt provision of suitable conveniences for accommodating such vessels when they broke down.  - - - 

Sir Leopold Heath had resigned his seat on the board, the remaining directors did not see the necessity of the vacancy being immediately filled. 

 
The Lords of the Privy Council had refused to consider the committee's application for a license for a Foreign Animals' Application for a want of which the S.S."Sumatra," 1,759 register tons, which arrived here in November last much damaged, with many dead cattle on board, was compelled to remain in the roads and keep the cattle on board in an advanced state of putrefication, imperilling the health of all on board, greatly inconveniencing the owners and driving the vessel to sea again to get rid of the carcases

Rural Sanitary Authority
Mr Hill reported several nuisances which were ordered to be abated. With regard to the pollution of a brook at the Kent Green, Odd Rode, by the influx of sewage matter from certain cottages in the vicinity, and which became injurious to the cattle drinking the water,  the Vice-Chairman enquired what it was that contaminated it. 

Mr Hill explained that it was thought to be the chemicals used in washing and cleansing operations, and he now asked for assistance to enable him to take levels for the purpose of irrigating the land with the sewage, instead of permitting it to contaminate the brook.
The Chairman said it was not only desirable but necessary that something should be done, and inquired what steps Mr Hill wished to take.

Mr Hill said he wished to obtain the assistance of a Surveyor who with proper mathematical instruments would take the levels and enable him to be prepared with a scheme to lay before the Board at its next meeting.

The following letter was read from the nephew of the Misses Marsh-Caldwell: - "I find that the land on the Bank Farm over which the Sanitary Board proposes to run sewage is held in trust by the Misses Marsh-Caldwell and is not part of the Linley Wood estate. They are therefore liable for any depreciation in value which the land may suffer through steps taken by them while holding the said land in trust. I find also that the portion of land in question is intended at some future period for building purposes. It is evident, therefore, that if sewage were run over it, it would be rendered most undesirable for this purpose. I am, therefore, advised that the only way in which the land can be granted to the Sanitary Board without endangering the interests of the Trust is that hte said Board should purchase the land and pay due compensation for depreciation of the adjoing land."

Perpetual Pensions
To the Editor of the Echo.
Sir, - Your columns being open to the discussion of this subject, will you allow me to add a few facts taken from the "Financial Almanc," and confirmed by the official Blue Book. Last year £1,336,897 was paid by taxpayers to meet the above claims, the most prominent items being apportioned as follows:- - - - 

Recipients - Amount per Annum - Granted - No. of Yrs already paid - Total Paid - 
D.D.Heath - £3,110      - 1847     - 34     - £105,400 - - -

The above is but a sample of a long list. No doubt all these were granted by Act of Parliament; but I contend that when an Act of Parliament is found to work unduly and unjustly, as there are, such Acts should be repealed, or at least amended, our ancestors having no more right to saddle us with such burdens than we have those that come after us. To many it must have been difficult to assign a reason for Lord Churchill's animosity to Mr Bradlaugh; but when it is known the one as belonging to the Marlborough family (mentioned above), the other as the bitter foe to perpetual pensions, the difficulty disappears, this being a nice bit of Tom Tiddler's Ground.  - - -

Colburns United Service Magazine of this month contains an able and valuable article on "Tonnage," which all interested in our naval supremacy and the safety of our ships, should read. The report of the Roya Commission on Tonnage are dealt with, and separately stated view of Mr H.C.Rothery and his co-dissentient Commissioners carefully, and the former, favourably examined. Among other writers mentioned on the subject are Admiral Sir Leopold Heath, whose qualities, the article says, "as a seaman are undoubted, and whose scientific attainments are well known." The writer protests strongly against ships being turned into what sailors call "gaspipes," this is to being immoderately lengthened, and thereby weakened, merely for economy, with the almost certain result that the ships may become the coffins of the crew.  - - -

Engineer Staff in the Army of 1882 - Murder of Captain Gill in the Desert - Battle of Kassassin - Assault on the Line of Tel-el-Kebir - Close of the War - Expedition to Suakin under Graham in 1884 ...etc.The War which broke out in Egypt in 1882, led before its termination to the sacrifice of one of the noblest spirits ever enrolled in the ranks of the Engineers. The death of Charles George Gordon, at Khatoum, forms a fitting climax to the military history of the Corps. It remains in this, the last Chapter of that history, to trace the share which the Engineers bore in the various stages of that struggle.

The victory at Tel-el-Kebir close the war. The Egyptian army utterly collapsed, and the rapid advance of the British cavalry to Cairo completed its disorganisation. No resistance was offered at any point, and on the arrival of Sir Drury Lowe at Cairo the citidel was surrendered.The garrison appointed for its occupation consisted of two Squadrons of the 4th Dragoon Guards and some Mounted Infantry, the whole being placed under the command of Captain Watson, R.E.The entire force gradually concentrated at Cairo, and after a review at which the Khedive was present, the major portion embarked at Alexandria for England, so that by the end of Octobery the army of occupation alone was left. The Engineers that remained were - Major-General Graham, commanding a Brigade; Lieutenant-Colonel Ardagh as Deputy Assistant Adjutant and Quarter-master General; Lieutenant-Colonel Maitland, C.R.E., with Captain Green as Adjutant; the 26th Field Company under Lieutenant-Colonel Blood, wiht Captain Dorward, Lieuntenants Blackburn, Mantell, and Tuke;the 17th Company under Major Wood, with Lieutenants Heath and Thomson; and the 21st Company under Major Puzey, with Lieutenants Elrington and Cleeve; Lieutenant-Colonels Sir C.

Sandstone versus Granite at Karnak

To the Editor of The Royal Engineers Journal

Sir,

In the course of a visit lately paid to Thebes and its neighbourhood, I was struck by what seemed a curious failure; thinking that possibly the case may be of interest to some readers of The Royal Engineers Journal, I made a rough sketch, which is enclosed.

The sanctum sanctorum forms a portion of the Temple of Ptah, Karnak, built some 3,000 years ago; in this case it seems to have been an oblong red granite building, built inside a sandstone building, hence the double roof.

The sketch shews the portion still standing. Here sandstone has clearly shewn its capacity of outliving granite.

Each of the three sandstone stones, comprising the upper roof are about 16ft  long, 2ft. thick, and 2ft. 6in wide; they are all in comparatively perfect condition, whilst the granite roof under it is in the condition sketched. The stones formerly composing the lower roof were of red granite; they had a clear bearing of about 13ft., and were about 2ft. thick and 3ft. 6in. wide; these have failed by large pieces literally dropping out of them, leaving the two ends as shewn.

I am, &c,

F.C.Heath, Lieut. R.E.,

Meetings of Public Companies.
Devala-Moyar Gold Mining Company (Limited), The third ordinary meeting of the shareholders was held yesterday afternoon at the Cannon St Hotel, Major-General Alfred Light in the chair. The report having been adopted as read, the Chairman in moving its adoption, after expressing regret at the retirement from the board of his predecessor, Sir David Salomons, and, in reference to his own position his conviction, as the result of personal observation, that the company would ultimately prove successful, and after mentioning that Mr W.Hodding, a director, was about to visit the Wynaad, said those who had followed the report closely and knew anything about the amount of work which was necessary in opening a mine, such as road-making - of which they had done eight or nine miles - the erection of buildings, bridges, and other works, would perhaps consider that they had not thrown their time away.  - - - Alluding, in conclusion, to the accounts, the Chairman observed that with over £50,000 in hard cash, and with the reduced expenditure, the company's financial position was a very strong one, and that it would be made stronger by satisfactory returns from that portion of the estate which was now being worked.

The motion having been seconded, Sir Leopold Heath commenced a discussion which turned chiefly on the methods adopted for securing returns.  - The Chairman, in replying, entered into a number of details on that subject, and, in speaking of the expenditure, he declared his belief that it might be kept within the proportion of 10s. per ton - - -
