An adjourned meeting of the ?t?cL. holders sf the Pacific Mail Steamship Compos/ was hold yesterday at the office of Messrs. Rowland & AspiawaD, for tho psrpas# of listening to reports of eonuiittoee appointed to in vestigate the affairs of tho company?(j serge W. Blast, Esq., is tho chair. Mr Abu ah Mann, Jr., from the committee to eoniider the President's report and to iarestlcate the same, and thecanse of the failure to make dividends reported 'lhey see no reasen to doubt the substantial accuracy of the report, which the/ believe shows the actua condition of affairs up to tho time of its date, when the ?'balance" presented the following amount of assets? $4,427,768 48, with liabilities of $4,568,883 62, being a deficiency or loss of capital stock, (stock being on books of the company 96% per cent, instead of 100 par ratue, paid in by stockholders,) of $140,916 40; the cum ait tee therefore propose the issue of bonds to the amount of $500,000, interest payable semi-annually, and payable in ten years, cr instalments, $200,000 In seven years, and $100,< 0(t tn each eight, nine ana ten years, to be apolied to the payment of the floating debt, of whleh $187,516 98 is doe to stockholders?Rowland & Aspinwall's balance $199,164 09? total, $360,780 95. Tbe committee recommend (upon tho adoption of the financial measures contemplated) the acceptance of the proposed relinquishment of the agency by Messrs How lend & Aspinwall, and also the early sals of four steamers not required for the use of the company, as being a sou roe of largo expense. It also advisee strenuous efforts to effect an amicable arrangement with the Nicaragua Transit Company for tho prevention of ruinous com petition. In the t pinion of the committee the number of direc tors should be increased from five to nine, exclusive of the President and Vice President, ex officio members, five members to constitute a quorum; and they further oon s'der it expedient to create a new office, that of treasur er, to hold office at the will of the Board of Directors. It was then proposed that Messrs. Theodore Dshoa, Joseph GaUlanf, Jr , Ed. Whitehouse. A. Norrie, and Watre Sherman, be a committee to carry into effect the recommendations of the committee, and that the report be accepted. Mr William H. Asptvytall roee and explained some inaccuraces in the report, and requested a division of the question, which being acceded to, the adoption came up. Mr Abijah Manx, Jr.. explained that It was intended that the recommendations should be carried out by the newly proposed board of directors, and not by resolu tions emanating from the committee. The enly point which be considered to need inch a resolution was that of the Jiuue of bonds, on which question doubtless the directors would like to have an expression of tbo opinion of stockholders. He spoke In terms of commendation of the way in whicb tbe affairs have been managed, and at tributed the want of dividends to the necessities of the immense traffic, the coarse pursued br the competing company, and the holding of steamboats and mac nine ry en band, lying idle, to prsvent their use In opposition to the company. He was willing to go some length to " " with make an amicable arrangement with the Nicaragua ronte, and thus to shut off rulcous competition : but if they will not do the same, then he for one would desire to carry the war to extermination. A report from the cemmittee appointed to confer with tbe executive officers of the Pacific Mail Steamship Com pany, or, if they see fit, with tbe Nicargaua Ccmpany, as to the rates of fare to and from California, was made. Ihis report gave a long series of letters and reports of in terviews, held for the purpose above mentioned. The Ni caragua Company condition, as the basis of negotiation, the sum of $12,000 claimed by them'on old acoount from the Pacifio Company. This the majority of the committee concur In. They recommend that the nego tiation be continued by the directors. They leave the consideration of the payment of the above sum to the slock bold era. To allow time for the examination of the reports, the misting adjourned. Commissioners of Emigration. Tbe Board mat at 2 P. If., at the Marine Hospital, Staten Island.

Since the unit of the five mentioned in yesterday's paper, m baring been taken into custody on auspioion of being eounterfeitera, additional testimony baa been procured against the prisoners by Cept. Speight, of the Twenty-first ward pohee. A number of counterfeit Are dollar b>Ua en the Tradesman's Bank of Philadelphia;, of recent execution, bare been traced to their noaassa lod. According to the testimony elicited yesterday before Justice Davison, It appeera that the gang entered the saloon of Charlea Miller, of Fortieth street and Sixth avenue, and offered one of the bUla in payment for some refreshments bought at thia place, and that upon bis dist every of the counterfeit, they all, with the excep tion of Donald, who was secured, ran off across the open let in front of the house. Seven or eight of the counterfeits were found hid under a stone in the lot crossed by the prisoners. Two ladies (shopkeeper!) also appeared at tha Police Court, and identified a portion of the gang aa having pasaed some of the spurious bUla upon them in payment for the goods purchased.

Otbsr objection of a legal character are mads to the grant?all of whieb, however, are contested by the de fendants The erideooe so far Introduced by the plaintilTs has hern mainly upon the effect the railroad would have in dsprseating ths rents and value of the property, and as to its tendency to destroy the business in the streets. James Van Nostra id, President of Merchant*' Ex change Bank, lays it wonld prevent the present business being carried on there, and lessen value of property 25 per cent Eamusl Iiotal ng, in aalt business at '207 Washington street, rent 11,600, on a lease, would sell out at half price if the railroad is laid, and would not do business there; could not oatry it on with a railroad in the street; property woald be depredated one half In value. John R. Macomb owna 303 Grienwich street; get* 92,SCO a year rent lor it; the tenant any* he will leave if a railioao was laid, and would not give him 91,500 a jear for the atore; if too railroad waa laid tns business would have to leave; one or tho other mast give way; property would be Ceprec'.*t*<l by k thirty to forty per cent. Eraatea Titus owns sed occupies 283 Washington street as n cracker and ship bread bakery; would hare to leave if the railroad goee through; it would depre ciate property 30 to 40 per cent. James H l.yon occupies 100 Washington street, op posite Market, as woodenware stcre; pays 92,800 lent: the street would not do for their business if ths railroad comes in it; wculd not give within 9800 a year as much for the store.

Davenport, crockery merchant, at 203 Greenwich and 171 Washington street; rent 91 000; could not conduct this business with a railroad in these streets, would leave and go elsewhere; rent* wonld be reduced one half by the railroad there; value of property would be rtducedln the same proportion, and plaintiff* would be injured. J. H.

Gerald H. Dupont, cartman 'or R I. A A. Stuart; tho railroad would matei lally interfere with loading and un loading, and obstruct tha business; the track is dsn 6nous to horses; strsine them and wrenches carts, had Is borses' shoes torn off by it. Benjamin Titus,twenty? (ou r years cartman forStagg & Co.; articles dealt In in this neighborhood are very bulky *Dd wsigjMf) difficult to load with a track in the street; with a heavy load it would be hard to get oat of the way of thecais; track strains horses in getting out of it. Edward E. Carpenter, cartman, at 198 Greenwich stieet, could not do the business there If a railroad was in the street; track, besides, it bad for cartman; there is danger frcm throwing the horse aud wrenching the cart; this often occurs on the other city tracks. John J. Voorhees, cartman for Wet more & Co., rides heavy iion and casts; railroads have a bad effect on loaded carts; wheels get in the tracks, horses slip, and they and the carts get strained. , Alt nam Fee. cartman 14 years in this vicinity; gave testimony similar to the last witness. Gilbert R. 8ci tt?Superintends carting for tho Grocers' Steam Sugar Refinirg Company; average, 2C0 to 400 loads a day; each load from 1,200 to 2,600pounds; the factory covers a whole block on Washington street, cor cei of Laight; a front of 2C0 feet; and is so constructed, that all of their sugar, &o , must bo received on Wash ington street; to take it in on any other street, would require an entire change of the ba lding; the track has a bad effect on horses and carts; lias broken their certs several times of lata; in winte>r time there would not bo room enough for ths ca-. is and cars tr got along on the track; would be impassable, if the snow should be thrown on the sides cf the stieet, In the nsual wsy; wit ness thinks there is about 91,000,000 of capital in this lactoiy. 11< nry Bisbey? Cartman for Messrs. Stuart: a railroad would injure their business; mate more hard labor in leading and unloading; trace la bad for horses; injured l.is hone last winter, by strain'ng to get off the track; was laid np by It: it is difficult to get out of the groove with a heavy load on. John Fardon?Superintends carting for R. L. k A. Stuart; average from 200 to 8C0 loads a day; the property pasting in and out cf their store, In thia way, is worth 96,(CC,CC0 to 90,000,000 u year; owing to the construc tion of their building and machinery, all thia hne to be received and delivered on Greenwich street; a railroad would obstruct business, and increase the expense of do ag it Benjamin Stagg?Owns Nos. 185 and 187 Greonwieh si re et, occupied for aalt and groceries; haa sometimes 200 to 300 loads a day; the articles dealt in are vspy heavy; a railroad would obstruct business there very much, injure propeity at least20 percent; busineas wcnld leave the neighborhood, and tho effect of this would be felt by all owning property there; tho business of the locality is very great and requires many carts; opposite the market would be most injured. John F. Solomon, 213 Washington street?rays about 92.0C0 rent, brooms and wooden waie; streets constant ly crowded; this business requires a groat deal of room; with horses backed up on both aldea of the street it is so narrow there is only about three feet left between their beads; a railroad would certainly depreciate rents there 25 per cent, and lessen property opposite the mar ket fu'I 40 per cent. Joseph W. Mceks, of Veaey street?Cabinet furniture business, owns property there worth 9250,000; also on Barclay street; all re?.te for 944,000; had his attention called to railroads by the Sixth Avenue Railroad endea voring to extend theirs in front of hie property: railroads in narrow business streets are vary injurious; would depreeiate the rents of his stores 92,000 each; would lessen property on Greenwleh and Washington streets from thirty to twenty-five par cent in value. Philip Weeks, butcher- twenty years in Washington Market?A railroad would Injure bis bus'nese very ma ttrlaBy by depriving him of tns facilltiee he now has for doing it; couldn't get his carts in on Waahlngton street, where his stand is: his horse could not stand there without being interfered with by the oers. John B. Jervis, is civil engineer tor thirty to forty year*?Where there is aa much business in a street as In Greenwich and Washington streets, a railroad la a detriment, snd business will be much interfered with by it; invariably has great difficulty to maintain a rail road in streets where a terminus is made, arising from ths people on the streets generally considering railroads injurious to them; andtnia is to, notwithstanding large commercial interests may be in favor of the railroad. John Conway batcher at Washington Market, gave tame testimony as witness Weeks. Elishs Ruck man. in the oyster b perty on Greenwich end Washington would be very injurious to business i business, owni pro streets?A railroad very injurious to business sad property there ?would lessen property twenty.five per cent Semuel R. Piatt, hardware merchant, 165 Greenwich street, pays 96,000 rent. If n railroad goes through ould i " "" there would not remain if ho could get n store eleewhere: business wonld be driven oat of the street by it; it woald depreciate bis atore S3 per cent in value, end rent 92,60, one-half. John D. Brower owns corner of Chambers end Wash ington streets; n railroad would materially depreeiate property there?damage it at least 25 per cent, and op posite the market from 30 to 36 per cent.

SUIT ON BBHALF OF THH DBP08IT0KS OF TBI LATB KNIOKBRBOOKBB SAVINGS BANK. The U. S. Trust Company t<e. Dixon.?This is a salt, in the name of a receiver, for the benefit of the depositors of the late Knickerbocker Savings Institution. That the defendant had the money?seven thousand dollars?for which he is sued in this action, there is no dispute; that he obtained it nnder the pretence of a lawful loan is equally undisputed; but, says the defendant, the offl rers of toe havings Institution violated Uufr duty?not ij|*i their duty to me,l>ut their duty to the deWlltors?they took my obligation, with Knickerbocker Bank stock as collateral, instead of good "public stock," or good real estate, which alone they should have ascipted; in other words, they were faithless trustees in taking Insufficient security for the fulfilment of my promise, and therefore ?a most extraordinary ooneluaion either In morals or law?I am discharged from Its fulfil meat altoge ther. Had the borrower, as he ought to have done, seoured his note by mortgage, the note, it seems, accord ing to this reasoning, would have been valid; but, as by an arrangement between him and the secretary, ?ms bank stock < - " worthless bank stoek was aoeepted instead of real estate, the note is void I It la only necessary to state such a proposition to refute It. Ia not every trustee?whether as executor, administrator, guardian, committee, or oth erwise?to whom the moneys of others are tided, subject to the duty, when making loans, of requiring sufficler' ?emrity ? And yet, was it ever contended, that a J< t? mad# by an executor, for in VUUtvaiuxu, ihui ? " imsmeew is/ mm v awvuevi.

There is a wide distinction between acts done in violation of pnblie policy, and those done In violation of mere private daty. In the former case the law vin dicates Itself by giving no remedy to tbo transgressor? In the latter, it superadds to the remedy against one party, o remedy, at more or lees efficiency, against the other. Judgment for plaintiff for 17,408 88, with one per c?nt allowance.

Once more I Sad myself ia the quaint old, bat to a stranger agreeable city, with its flaa, clear, bracing cli mate, fina rides, fine scenery?everything to laaka the inner man comfortable, food living, gaod eating, goad drinking, from the various mineral eaters which abound in these regions enough to delight and perhaps intoxi cate an advocate of the Maine law, did they not general ly prefer the Old London Look to bo had here, of a su perior qua ity; but a ehango of water, even la thin Northern clime, is not always a bad excuia for old (lack lienor sey. Ibe great topic of the day is the arrival, to morrow, of our crack company, the City Guard; and, judging freen appearances, they ate to have, aa they richly deserve, a glorious reception. Tbe following is the programme, rls:?They art to oe met et St. 1 ambert, a small village across the St. Lawrence, by the American Consul, C. Dorwin, Esq., at well ac by a deputation of the New Bag land Society, where they are tc be addressed by the Consul; after which they take the at and arrive In Montreal at balf-paet ton o'c when they will be received by his Worship to* Mayor, who will present them to tha eitiaaus, and then be entettained by the Mayor, alter whlik they will be escorted to their quarters at tha Montreal Henae, where an addreej will be delivered on the part of the Mew England Society. They will afterwards peoosed in oar risgea, provided for them, around the Mountain, where tbry w ill have a fine view or tha city and its s .barbs, with the St. Lawrence, with its rapids rushing rapidly on its way to Old lather Ocean. Returning to dine nt alx o'clock to their quarters, the Montreal Bewne, kept by Coleman, an edition of our Aetor House Pels men, which I doubt not, will not cut t sheds on. tbet t'me honoied, well kept establishment, of whieh aM New Yoikers ate proud. In the evening, by invitation of Mr. Buckland, of tbe Theatre Koyal. they will visit bis place of amusement, where .they will meet their oM . friend Mr. W. R. Blake, Esq , from wallack's, suppacted by many old faces whom Buckland baa engaged during the summgr season, from tha Naw York theatres, to emuse tie Canadians. 1 see our old manager Barken meets tbem here, to take his appointment with tbe corpa, aa quartermaster, and I have no doubt he will supply the guests with "stores of wit " from his department. Ia fact, all pleoee of interest are to be thrown open gratuitously to tho Guards; and aa a New Yorker. I think they riohly de serve it, and will appreciate the same and strengthen the already gcod feelings existing between our aeighbena od litis tide of tbe line. At proeent Montreal ia weR sup plied with amusements We have one very good thea tre, Pierce's Nsw York kllnstrels, Hanniagtoa, free.
