LIVERPOO R L AND MANCHESTE.R RAILWA EDUCTION OF FARES. rill-1E Public are respectfully informed, that on and ti tt er -S AT URDAY, the 2d November next, the follow-- ind will be:the Passenger Fares between Liverpool and Manchester: — First Clars Fares 63..0d. Second Class Thu: d Class DAY :TICKETS (not Transferable)to Manchester: or Liverpool -and Back on the same day Ten •Shilliags, equalling each way Five Shillings. The Public are further informed that from and after the same date there will be Two Third class Trains .per Day, one in the Morning and one in the Evening, from each end 6f -the iine. The Times of Departure wall be published in bills of the thy. The Directors feel that some explanatiom is clue to the• Shareholders upon the announcement of so large an ad ditional measure of accommodation, and so important a • reduction of fares, within six months after the opening of the •Extension , Line through Salford, upota which nearly. £250,000 have been expended, especially as the general 'Scale of Fares on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway; has never exceeded, and has generally been below that of 'the principal railways in England, including those in im -mediate connexion with this district. The Directors are happy to be able to state that the Arai& accounts-for the quarter just ended exhibit a very' i gratifying increase.ovcr the corresponding quarter of last ,year; a result. in,part to be attributed to the Extension Railway lately opened. forming a direct and continuous line of communication with Yorkshire and the East Coast, but in I art, also, to the general revival of trade, which the Directors trust will be steady and permanent, giving in creased activity to the internal truffle of the country. This, -favourable state of things has encouraged the Directors to adopt a morc decided course than they would otherwise have been ,ju,tified in doing; and they cheer fully recognize the broad and general principle that the public may fairly claim la participate, from time to time, by means of increased accommodation or reduced rates, in the continued success of the company. Moreover, they will not conceal from the Proprietors, that in the present position of railway interests, with a auperahund,nce of unemployed capital and a speculative spirit abroad, •which, every day, conjures into shape and promise new and rival priltit.cts, existing lines must be prep,,red, even at some sacrifice, to supply the public with ample accommodation, on the roost reasonable terms, if they would-maintain the ground-which they have heretofore occupied—each in its own locality. For this purpose the outlay of additional capital must be required, the return for which can be expected only from an increase of traffic, consequent on the increased prosperity of the eountry. But the Directors feel assured that a deference to public opinion, exemplified by the course of policy now recommended, will best enable them to maintain a safe position, and to defeat, if need be, the attempts of rival and hostile undertakings. By order, HENRY BOOTH, Manager. Liverpool, 1411 e October, 1844. ST. HELEN'S & sourii PORT, WIGAN, RAIN FORD, AND LIVERPOOL RAILWAY. I fl Public are respectfully informed that it is proposed to CONSTRUCT a "ANL: of RAILWAY, with the r quisite Branches, to accomplish the following impor tant , •bjects:— First : To bring the extensive Coal Districts to the west of Wigan, comprising the Coal Fields of Winstanley, Rainford, and Kirkby, into a cheap and easy com munication with Liverpool, via the Liverpool and Mac. Chester Railway. Second: To effect a shorter and more direct communi• cation b. tween Liver p :ol and the North, by the proposed hew Lire, to Wigan. And Third: By a Railway from St. Helen's, through the Cuathelds of Biekerstaff and Lathow, to join the • Euston and Southport Railway at a place west of RufFard;. thereby affording to the Town of •Ormskirk a good railway communication with Liverpool, Manchester, Preston, and other places already connected by existing railways. he• sides completing a railway communication between.Man chesrer," Stockport, and the Manufacturing Districts as well as between Wolverhampton, Birmingham and the Erent 1,4:i Districts, anti the agreeable Watering-place of SolirneoaT. The peculiar advantage of the proposed scheme of Rad way is, that it will afford, at a camparatieely small outlay. (by making wenf the Liverpool and Manchester Railway. and by arrangements with St. Helen's Railway,) the valuable option of several distinct triodes of outlet for the produce of the great Cual Field which it is proposed to Interser t. namely First: By the Liverpool and Manchester Line, to effect a direct raifway communication with arose towns. • Second: By the St. Helen's and Runcorn-gap Railway, to obtain a short and direct communication with the river 'Mersey, either for export to Ireland, for the supply of the Salt-works in Cheshire. or fur the Steam-vessels which row sail iron) the river Mersey to all parts of the world. And Third : In addition to a new railway communica tion from Edge-hill to the north end of the town, which the Liverpool and Manchester Company have in content- Piation, and will be prepared to execute as soon as the tram, of the pert shad require increased accommodation, a connexion will al , o be formed with the Leeds and Liver pool Canal, which the proposed Line will cross between Ormskrk and 11• ffard, by which a water cooveyance to the north end of Liverpool will be effected. - By the proposed scheme, while ample facilities will be afforded to the Proprietor to bring his Mineral Products to toe rarer,. am.", “.01•7 nlll $.1., and that waste of the national capital be avoided, which must he sustained where a million of money is expended to accomplish objects which by more judicious arrange ments could be effected by a quarter of that auto. ensure the most skilful, comprehensive, and at the same time economical system of Lines and of Working, of which the district is capable, the Promoters are happy fo announce that they have engaged the services of Geotge Stephenson, Esq., who has consented to act as Principe! Engineer for the setting out and construction of the Lute, —iu regard to which the interests of the Landed Proprie tors of the c ,, untry proposed to be traversed will as far as possible be consulted.

An arrangement has been entered into, of the most satisfactory character, with the Grimsby Haven Company, by which they undertake to apply for extended powers in the next Session of Parliament, to improve the Dock accommodation at Great Grimsby, so as to make it very complete, and capable of receiving first-class Steamers and other large Vessels engaged in the Continental and Foreign trade ; and the convenience afforded by the pro posed extensive Wharfs, and the Railway and Dock to gether, for the export and import of goods, will be second t none in the king,:om. Mr. RENDFL, the eminent En gineer, is now occupied, on behalf of the Grimsby Haven Company,in completing their part of the above arrangment. Great Grimsby being situated at the mouth of the Humber, Vessels entering its Dock will save at least one tide in time, and avoid the risk, cost, and delay of a dan gerous rive r navigation; the dues are considerably lower than at Hull ; and, besides the shorter voyage and sefcr and cheaper port, the distance inland by rail both to Shcf• field and to all the large Towns in the Midland Counties, wi:l be less from Grimsby than from Hull. The imparts and exports, therefore, to and from these '('owns, and also a fair proportion of the Manchester Continental Trade, rim/ coAdently be calculated to travel upon this line of Railway. To Passengers, the advantage wil! he still more re markable, as a person will ordinarily be able to land at Grimsby, and reach Sheffield before he could have landed at any other Port on :he Humber. This Railway, from the Port of Grimsby, by communi eating with the Southern Line to London, will also form by .far the quickest route for the Mails from Hamburgh and the Baltic to London. The rich and productive districts through which it pases, guarantee to this Line a large traffic in Corn and Agricultural Produce, both NA , estward towards the Manu facturing Consumer, and Eastward for Shipment Coast wise, whilst the present prices of Coal at Grimsby, and throughout North Lincolnshire. ensure a return traffic in Coals and Coke from the Yorkshire Coal Field to all phmes un or near the line of Railway, and at the same time an important saving in cost to the inbabitantF. Though forming a distinct and independent Company, this Lire will have the active co-operation or the Directors of the Sheffield and Manchester and Sheffield and Lincoln shire Junction Railways, to both of which, as well es to the North and South Lines, it must act as a valuable feeder; and as the most convenient and economical mode of working the Line, power will be taken in the act to lease it to the former Company, on terms to be mutually agreed upon. This Railway has also the important advantage of the cordial approval and support of the principal Landed Proprietors through whose Estates it will pass. The Line will be peculiarly favourable throughout for cheap construction, and, from the excellence of its gra dients, will be capable of being worked at as low a cost as any in the kingdom. The traffic new passing along and near it is ascertained to yield a remunerative return upon the capital required ; and this Railway, combined with the improvement of the Port of Grimsby, mita make the whole length of rail from East to West cf the most im portant national character, and embrace an extent of Traffic in the highest degree advantageous both to the Proprietors in the present Company, and to those who have invested in either of the above Lines.

In the event of the proposed London and Yolk Line being carried into effect, this Railway will also form the connecting Ink between Manchester, Sheffield, and the Metropolis, and wi afford, by means of the Londnn and York Line, the short commurication from the Metro polis to these Mitt rtant A careful examh:Ltion the Country through which this Line will pass, by Eng nears of acknowledged emi nence, enables the err moters ro elate, thet it may be constructed with facility, ,nd t t its character is such as to justify a confidence that u must prove highly remune rative to the proprietary, taking into consideration the great amount of Traffic, which must necessarily Bass along it, whether as regards Pas!sengers, Merchandise, and Agricultural Produce, or Nlinetals, inasmuch as the Dis trict is not provided with any means of Transit br ytind the ordinary Turnpike Roads. Twelve Daily Coaches are now required to convey the Passenger Traffic thr;ugh the District which this Line will accommodate, at once demonstrating its importance and the necessity which exists for its construction. This Line, intended to communicate with the existing Mansfield and Pinston Railcar, at Mansfield, will form the nearest and most direct route that can be mace Iktween the Agricultural Districts to the East and Sonth-cast of Newark and the great ce,,tral Coal Field of Derbyshire and Nottingharmdiire, and thus enable the inhabirAnts of those extensive Districts to supply themselves with Coals of every quality at considerably less than two-thirds of the uresent price. The whole Count rv. N,qth and South, will, by this Rail way, and the others with which it will commur,ate, be brought within easy reach of the well-kni,wn Quarries of Building Stone with which the District of Mansfield and Mansil , -Id Woodhouse abounds; as well as with the Lime produced in that neighbourhood, so celehrated fur build ing and other purposes. The Promoters are enabled, after a careful analysis of the Traffic which will come upon this Line, to state that a profit of at least i per cent. will be realized upon the estimated capital of £600,000 after deducting 40 per cent. for working expenses. A Decost of £1 10s. pet Share trust he paid on the allotment of shares, and the liability of subscribers will be litnited by the Act of Parliament to the amount of their respectiVe shares.

Name. Residence. Trade or Profession. To the Provisional Committee of the Newark and Sheffield Ra'lway; Mansfield. SHREWSBURY AND WOLVERHAMPTON RAILWAY. THE Directors of the Grand Junction Railway, having read the statement which has appeared in several recent Newspapers. hearing the signature of Mr..Ormsby Gure, Chairman of the Provisional Committee of a. pro posed Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway, con-ider it due to their Shareholders and themselves to offer the fol. lowierz observations on that statement. Referring then, in the first instance, to the charge made in it, that the Grand Junction Company have claimed to dictate to four great counties " what Railway and what Railway only" they shall have, the Directors beg to state, (though they might have hoped it would not have been necessary for them to disclaim any such pretension as regards any part of the country,) that not only have they utver asserted or presumed to set up such a claim, but that, as real eats the particular Railway now in ques tion, they did not even enter upon the consideration of it until pressed so to do by parties at Shrewsbury. Upon receipt of a requisition, in January last, they obtained front their Shareholders at a public meeting full and ge neral authority to construct a Railway to connect Shrews_ 1 ury with the Grand Junction Railway, and they had various surveys made with a view to the discovery of the brat Line; they soon found that, as regards the North, (Manchester and Yorkshire for instance,) no point on their Line further South than Stafford could be considered as offering any considerable accommodation ; whilst, as re. cards London and the East, they found that as the Tr, nt Valley Railway would scorten the distance to London nine miles, as compared with the existing route via W ol v erhampton and Birmingham, besides giving a direct communication with Derbyshire and the East, Stafford was clearly the best Terminus for the Railway from Shrewsbury, upon public grounds; and at the same time that a Line to that Terminus would be much chear than any other which is attainable, and also be the most promising as regards the prospect of traffic, because af lording improved communication with the North and the aN will as the South. • n Accordingly tbeliirerlors made the necessary prepara tions for hi i k ing the Stafford and Shrewsbury Line be. fore Parliament next Session ; the Su , scription Litt was filled, and the deposits paid, inhabitants of Shrewsbury taking or.ne Shares. To this point all that the Giand Junction Directors had done was done at ti.e instance, and with the concurrezice, of i;Jiabi , arits of ShrtwAury ; "dictation," tberefoie, cannot surely ht. charged ac9iimt them, At a later date, bow; eel-, aid (which it Material to mention) cfter tbe puilieation of the resoluti.•ns of the Grand Junction Pro- Prietors authorising their Directors to proceed with the Line, certain Professional Gentlemen (for in the tint in• THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. stance no Provisional Committee was announced) brou before the public the project of a Line from Shrewsbury to join the Grand Junction Line at Wolverhampton, in stead of Stafford, (and subsequently proposed to be ex tended to Birmingham); communications aftezwards took place on the subject of the different Shrewsbury-Railways, the result of which was, that the Grand Junction Direc tors agreed, as a concession to the London and Birming ham Company and to the new Shropshire party, to adopt Wolverhampton, instead of Stafford, 'as , the terminus; here again affording, surely., proof enough of anything but a desire on their part to dictate. After , these preli minary remarks, the Directors approach the two points now in dispute. namely, first, who. under the agreement of the 3rd of July last between the London and*Birming ttam and Grand Junction Companies, w-re 'to be the "makers" of the Shrewsbury and \Volveeh moron Line; and secondly, whether Mr. Gre's part.; have or have not adopted that agreement. 'I he following statement will, it is hoped, make it clear that there is no ground whatever for complaint against the Directors of the Grand -Junction Railway on either point. First, as to the aer,vment itself ; in express words,, states, that the Grand Junthon Company shall make the • Line ; and when it is considered that they we , . to orovide .half the capital, end also to guarantee inter( upon the total amount, whatever that should be, it surely was most reasonable that they should be the makers of it. In Mr. Gore's statement, however, it is said, that " it isubaious j ib:, any impartial observer, that the word `make' is clearly hmodified and restrained from the meaning sought to be tezz d re bee n j put u r on i t b y t h e st i pulat i on as to the, leasing of the tLine.” I n re f utat i on of this attempt to explain away the meaning of th e wor d, th e Di rectors b eg to o b serve, t h at the two L on d on an d Birroirighan - i Directors, who made nwakiselresdo'fatththee L t i i n m e, e,atrliidattiN)elyr.pGroopre;sse,d ( party ,il h i ) the 'Grand Junction Directors) that the agreement should standiin that form ; the latter, however, after diecussi,n of the matter with the London and Birmingham' Direc tors, exoressly refus:ed to consent to the proposition ) and the agreement was' altered into its present form, and .sizned accordingly on behalf of both Companies. More need not said in proof that all the patties to the agree ment,.ai the lime they entered in/a it, intended precisely the same thi: , z, and attached precisely the same meaning to the word " wake" ; and to shew that the London and 13irminaam Directors held the same opinion at a later date, the Solicitor of that Company wrote to Mr. Roy, the Solicitor of the Shrewsbury party, on the 23rd of August, ',a letter, from which the following is an extract: " My understanding of the arrangement between your Company end the London and Birmingham, is as you . . have expressed it, namely, that the GranJ Junction were to take up the -agreement at the point where they had left it. I must say, .also, that I contemplated that your Com pany were to be Lessors of the line, so as. to cause its being made, and to that extent the moving tatty ; but I havp invariably expressed my opinion, that virtually the making of the Line rnuet be by the Company guarantee 'ing the interest; the mode of carrying this out had never been discuxsed between us, and was, in fact, the point at which we had jut arrived, when the arrangement with the Grand Junction was made." To this the Directors will only further add, that their Solicitor had previously (namely on the 24th of July) been informed by the Solicitor of the London and Bir mingham Company that Mr, Glyn was inclined to think, not that the Shrewsbury parties should make the Line, hut that they " should be kept on until the Act of Par !lament were obtained," thus distinctly excluding the idea that they were to he the makers of the Line, a duty which of course does not arise until after the period up to which, only. their services might (in his view) be retained. Flaring thus, they hope, conclusively established their first point,—that they were to be the makers of the Line, —the Directors proceed to the other question, whether the Shrewsbury party have or have not concurred in that agreement ; and it is admitted to be a very material ques tion in the present position of affairs. In Mr. Gore's published statement it is alleged— " That the only concurrence ever given by them was that contained in the letter of their Chairman of the 12th of July, inclosing the terms which recognised this Com pany as the makers of the Line; that this Committee have never, in the slightest degree, departed from that pesit'or ; they never have a'isented to the Grand Junction b.-ing the makers." The contrary has been (mite as distinctly declared, on behalf of the London and Birmingham Directors, to the Grand Junction Directors; the former have reported to the latter, that the agreement of the 3rd July was read over to Mr. Gore and his friends, on the 10th July, and that he then " pointed out the discrepancy between the terms of the new arrangement and the previously existing agreement for making the Line, by which the Shrewsbury party were to be the rockers of it, under the supervision of a joint Committee; whereas by the new arrangement, the making of it is tranferred to the Grand Junction Company." The Grand Junction Dirt clors were in fo! med by Mr. Glyn, on the same day, that there was some little difficulty made by Mr. Gore and bit friends upon some . parts of the agreement, and that therefore their official concurrence in it might be a little delayed ; hut on the 151 i of July, the London and Birmingham CoMpany sent the f llowing letter to the Grand Junction, without at, all noticing Mr. Gore's to Mr. Glyn of the 12'h, or in any other way indicating that there remained the slightest objeeticn to the " new arrangement" : " London and Birmingham Railway Offices, Euston Station, 15th July, 1814. " Mr DEAR fiat,—The dayfollowin:r my return from Birmingham, I made known to the Chairman of the Pro visional Committee - of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company the terms of our arrangement. so far as they were interested in it. This notice. xvhieli i necompanieri with an assurance that the Grand Junction Company fey intended to afford the accommodation and faci lities which the Shrewsbury traffic might require, was received in good part, and it noW only remains for Mr. Parker, Mr. Roy. and Mr. Swift t o meet as soon as they can, on behalf' of the !hree parties concerned, to give legal effect to our measures. " I am, dear Sir, yonrs faithfully, (Signed) " GEO. CARR GLYN. " To John Moss, Esq." If the Grand Junction Directortt could, after this letter, have bad the slightest doubt of the fact of the concurrence of Mr. Gore's party in those measures, all such doubt would have been removed by a letter from the London and Birmingham Chairman, dated as la'e as the 12th of September last, whe-ein• he expressly repeats that that concurrence lt,d been given. The misunderstanding, then, if any exists, as to the making cf the Line, has been between the Shropshire parties and the London and Birmingham Directors: the Grand Junction have neither caused nor contributed to it in any way whatever. • In Mr. Gore's statement, again, reference is made to his letter of the 12th July, as showing that some terms had been then actually arranged between him and the London and Birmingham Company, including amongst them a provision that his party should he the makers of the Line; and in the same letter again he refers to his meeting with the London and Birmingham Company of the Wednesday previous (the 10th of July), as if such a provlsion had been recognized at that Meeting ; whereas the London and Birmingham Directors' Report of what passed at that Meeting distinctly states on the contrary, and Mr. Parker, their Solicitor, also writes, that the terms, so far from having b •en agreed upon, had never been even discussed ; and, moreover, (as will be seen by Mr. Creed's letter, which follows.) he expreQsly stated to Mr. Roy, when he delivered Mr. Gore's letter of,the -12 , h of July, that that letter was n:tt consistent with the pledge of the Grand Junction Company, contained in the agreement read to the Shrewsbury Deputation. The Grand Junction Director's most sincerely regret the misunderstanding which appears to have taken place between the London and Birmingham Director.• and Mr. Gore and his friends; probably it may be traced to the fact (published by Mr. Gore) ant he has not communi cated with the. Grand Junction direct : if he had done so, and if parties had met in an amicable spirit, all differences might have been avoided ; such a meeting wa4, in tact, arranged, and a day was fixed. but before that day arrived Mr. Gore thought. proper to address to the Grand Junc tion Directers, through the London and Birmingham, a letter, in chub he declined am meeting unless the Grand Junction .lould, as a preliminary, concede the point in dispute. In reply td this letter, the Grand Jut - wine' Di rectors transmitted to the London and Birmingham the following Resolutions, .and here the matter has since rested : " G"and Junction Rolfwv Office, Liverpool, 18th September, 1844." "The Board I vir.g considered a letter from the Se cretary of the London and Birmingham Railway, dated .16th instant, communicating or.e from Mr. Ormsby Gore to ) I r. Glyn, on the iuhject of the proposed Shrewsbury and Wolverhami:ton Railway ; " Resolvtd,— " That this Board cannot but feel the greatest regret and surprise, that the London and Birmingham Board should have allowed themselves to he made the medium of such a communication as that from Mr. Gore (even overlooking the offensive and unmerited tone and style of it). since the purport of it is to call upon this Ward to waive a most important point of their agreement with the London and Birmingham of the 3rd July last, and which point was fully discussed and considered before being consented to by Mr. Glyn and Mr. Smith, and which was ultimately embodied in the 3rd clause of that agree ment in the following words, viz. : " ' That the London and Birmingham is prepared, with the concurrence of their Shropshire party (which they will use their best endeavoers to obtain), to withdraw from the guarantee towards the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Line ; the Grand Junction, with the concurrence of their Stafford Shareholders, undertaking to make a Line to Wolverhampton. and guarantee four per cent, on the capital, and an equal division of future profits ; the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Shareholders (under the same condition as the Stafford and Shrewsbury) having an option of half ,the capital; the Grand Junction Com pany having a lease in perpetuity, and working the Liue in a manlier convenient to that part of the country.' _ _ " That Mr. Gore's demand. now, that the Gentlemen, whom he designates as the Board, of which he is the Chairman, shalt be ' the makers and lessors of the Line,' is obviously not only inconsistent with this agreement, (which, in so many words, pros ides that the Grand June lion Company shall be the 'makers' .of the Lint,) and with the right; of the latter, as the guarantors of int•rest on the ci•p•btl to be expended on it, but is also wholly irreconcilable with the London and Birmingham Board's reports to this Board, that the Shropshire patty had ex pressed their concurrnce in the agreement, after having Lad ' wade known to them the terms of it, so far as they were int,rrsted in it.' " That this Board must, most- distinctly, decline to make the declaration' required in Mr. Gore's letter. " That the London and Birmingham Board cannot but be aware, that this Board have all along been, and still are, willing and anxious to carry out the arrangement so made, both in leper raid spirit; and that as, in pursuance , of it, this Board have o b an d one d th e ir d and Sh ewsbnry end have offered to Mr. G , )re's wa y, through Mr. Roy, h a lf th e ca pit a l in their Wolverhampton and Shrewsbury Line, (thus performing, in every respect, their part of the agreement,) they feel that they m a y prOperly and justly appeal to the London and Birmingham Board also to abide by it; moreover, to urge for the con tinued adherence of the Shropshire party ; since, as it appears to this Board, those 'Gentlemen have, by their concurrence in the agreement -as made, fully recognised the whole arrangement. • " That if any difference shall ultimately arise upon the agreement, this Board will be prepared to refer that dif ference to the Board of Trade, to Sir Robert Peel, t Lord Granville Somerset, or to any other equally high and independent authority. " That a copy of these llesolutions be forthwith trans mitted to the London and Birmingham Board, and ano ther copy (with a copy of Mr- Gore's letter, of Mr. Jen kins', and Mr. Creeds') to the -Hon. Mr. Clive." The Grand Junction Directoa.s•conceive they have only to publish the following letter., addressed to them by the Secretary of the London and Birmingham Railway Com l.-any, at the request of his chairman, in order to shew that down to the present moment there has been no change of purpose or plan, and (what is much more material) no tailure of engagement whatever on the part of the Grand Junction Directors `• Office, Euston-station, 25th September, 1844. " MY DEAR SIR.—On the return of Mr. Glyn from the conference of the 3rd July, at Birmingham, a commu nication was made to • Mr. Gore and 11r. Clive, of the ar rangement which had been entered into with the Grand Junction Company. A deputation from their Provisional Committee thereupon attended our board, and the article of our agreement which affected them was read. " On the.l2th July following, a letter was addressed to Mr. Glyn, to which Mr. Go. is name was affixed as char man, and handed to me by Mr. Roy's nephew. On a pe rusal of the contents, I found the following words : `Anxious, however, to form no abetacle in the carrying out of the amicable arrangements between such large in terests, and relying upon the honour and integrity of the tu•o companies [Grand Junction and London and Bir mingham] as pledged to carryout the contract already• agreed upon, by our respective solicitnrs and subscribers —between the Shrewsbury Committee and your company. I ant directed to express their perfect acquiesceuce in the agreement, whereby their line, as altered from Shrews bury to Wolverhampton—instead of to Birmingham, shall be leased to the Grand Junction Company, upon the iden tical terms already arrau,qed in our negociations with . you ;' and directly stated to Mr. Roy's nephew, who brought the letter, that it must be altered ; as not being consistent with the pledge of the Grand Junction Com pany, contained in the ngrfement read to the Shrewsbury deputation. I returned the letter for this purpose, but it was sent to rele the following day unaltered, with a request that it might be sent as it was to Mr. Glkn. The latter did not attach the same value that I-did to the objection able words, because, in point of fact, nothing had been definitively agreed upon with the Shrewstury Company and ourselves, except that we were to lease the line at a given rsnt. " When, however, the Shrewsbury patty had given in their ultimatum, and that Mr. Roy. with his nephew, at tended our last board, 1 felt that it was equally die to the Grand Junction Board and our own, that I should recall to Mr. Roy's nephew, in the presence of the directors, what had passed between us on the subject of the let+er of the 12th July. He frankly admitted that I had protested against Mr. Gore's assumption of a concession on the part of the Grand Junction Company ; for which, in my view of the terms of agreement; between the Grand Junction and London • and Birmingham d e p u t a ti ons , th ere was no warrant. You may have taken a sound view, or von may not, of the wisest course to be adopted with the Shrews bury party ; but they cannot say that you have failed in your• engasvments, either to them or to us; nor were we called upon to do more than offer our mediation on points in which you differed. 1 think it right that you should know what has passed on this occasion, and at the request of our chairman, I put you in possession of the fac's as they occurred. "Yours, faithfully, (Signed) "R. CREED. "To Captain Huish." _ After this letter the Grand Junction Directors feel that it is unnecesFary to add !Another word in explanation of their conduct ; but as the following letter from Mr. Glyn to Mr. Gore has been published, as shewing that the for mer had written something to Mr. Moss inconsistent with an admission on the part of the London and Birmingham that the Grand Junction were to " make" the Shrewsbury line, it is thought right to publish also the suloequent correspondence on the subject of that letter.

" I think, as far as my recollection enables me to reply from hence, several of the numerous letters on the Shrop- ' shire affair pressed upon you the expediency of settling with the Shrewsbury Company; and am confident that I wrote to you a letter, under date of the 19th August, stating my views more particularly ; and which I had in my mind when writing to Mr. Gore. The question of making the line was matter fur negeciatiou, and I certainly hoped from the tenor of the conversation between you, Mr. Lawrence, and we, that this would have been arran ged, feeling that a measure of such great importance to all interested should not he allowed to tall through upon such a point, more especially as in other ways efficient controul over the outlay could be insured to you. yoursl CAIIR GLYN. truly, "My movements are uncertain , but letters addressed to tl Lom ba s r , d B(e . s st ilg r ie e nN e e. t ea w ,m) i e ll , a i ;:;a d y e s a e r v s, e yGi t . tt E aly find me. y, " To John Moss, EBq."
