John Braithwaite, Esq. o C) n. o co o> ... o o o ~. maw = a w ' El i . gOO N.B.—Existing lines give no communication whatever either to Doncaster or Gainsbro'. The following particu lars must also be borne in mind, viz : As REGARDS DISTANCES: First, that the same advan tage over the Sheffield and Lincolnshire (as stated in the last column) from Sheffield is conferred by the Manches ter, Midland, and Grimsby on all places west or north of Sheffield. Secondly, that the same advantage as stated from Man chester accrues to all places west, northwest, and south west of Wortley (a station on the Sheffield and Manches ter), including Thorncliffe, Penistone, Chapeltown, Holm firth, Huddersfield, Halifax. Bradford, Glossop, Ashton, Oldham, Todmorden, Liverpool, and the whole of the manufacturing districts of Lancashire. Third, that the same advantage as stated from Rother ham applies to Wakefield, Normanton, Leeds. York, and all other places on the Midland line north of Masbrough. It may also be added that the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby Junction gives, by its junction at Doncaster with Goole and Doncaster, a direct communicution from Chesterfield and the south, and from Sheffield to Goole, while the Sheffield and Lincolnshire does not accommo date that very important traffic at all. As REGARDS NUMBER OF MILES: To make and ob tain an act, for it is quite clear, from the above table, that the Sheffield and Lincolnshire stands in a strikingly in: ferior position. WITH REFERENCE TO VESTED INTERESTS—a right Parliament justly regards so much— First, Rotherham has long enjoyed the advantages of having one of the best cattle markets in England, there being frequently as many as 350 fat beasts and 7,000 to 9,000 fat sheep per week, in addition to which there is a very good corn market. On the other hand, Sheffield has not a market worth naming, and the effect of the Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway being wade would be almost entirely to annihilate the Rotherham market. Secondly, if it be desirable (which no one can doubt) that a railway should, if equally convenient to the public and profitable to the shareholders, be carried as near as possible to the estsbii'he.► and accustomed route, then it is quite clear that the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby Junction should have the preference, as the coaches, por ters', and carriers' carts, &c , from Sh-ffield to G iinsbro' or Lincoln, invariably run by Rotherham, Maltby, and so on, being the same line laid out to be pursued by the Manchester, Midland, ar►d Grimsby. Third, that the Manchester, Midland, and Gri, the 51 miles of the Sheffield and liotherhain Rai ready several years in operation), whereas th,. and Lincolnshire propose to make a most expens of heavy works acrots the town of Sheffield, an portion of any existimf . . . insby uee Ivray (al- Sheffield live series d use no Fourth, the Sheffirl.3 and Linc,)lnAiire runs parallel for some distance with the Cht•sterficAki Canal, thereby, in the event of that act being obtained, involving the probability of total ruin to that und=rtAking, but which powerful Company have, to protect therruvtivea, lately brought forward an adverse Line, running the same course as the Sheffield and Lincolnshire for halt its entire distance, viz., the sixteen miles from Gruusbro' to Worksop. Fifth, some of the most influential landowners in the district through which it passes are vehemently opposed to the Sheffield and Lincolnshire, whereas the noblemen and gentlemen of the largest property on the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby Line are warm supporters of it. COALS are some shillings per ton cheaper at Rotheram than at Sheffield, which, together with the &honer carriage by the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby, must make it very desireable to the inhabitants of the very important county of Lincoln that the Sheffield and Lincolnshire project should succumb to the superior merits of its rival. As REGARDS THE POPULAR FEELING: It is a noto rious fact that, even in Sheffield, the feeling of the inhabitants (and it has been expressed at public meetings on more than one occasion) is very decidedly against the Sheffield and Lincolnshire scheme. We may, therefore, consider that where "'Tie best known 'tie least liked.' Tile BOARD OF TRADE have expressed themselves very decidedly in favour of the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby, as compared with the Sheffield and Lincoln shire. However a concealment of facts may be necessary to bolster up a weak cause, the discerning public cannot easily be induced to swallow the paragraph (advertised by authority) in the Sheffi e ld papers a f ew d ays ego , whi▪ ch states, that "there is no r e s id enta l groun d o f object ion" to thb Sheffield and Lincolnshire. For a pretty sufficiently damning reply to that assertion let the report of the oppo sition of George Savile Foljarnbe, Esq., and Hutchin son, Esq., before the Committee of the House of Com mons, be read. In conclusion, the public may rest assured that the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby will go to Parliament with every prosp ec t o f success on i ts own very superi▪ or merits, and with that success rendered everything but a dead certainty in consequence of the very powerful tiny port guaranteed, and friendly alliance entered into with the most highly influential party of the day. The public are wished to understand that this advertise ment is not issued for the purpose of inducing applica tions for Shares, as it would be useless to apply, it being generally known that all the Shares in the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby are allotted to highly respectable parties, except a very small number reserved for land-. owners on the line solely. SECRETARY. Mr. Francis Parker, Rotherham BANKERS Sheffield and Rotherham Banking Company, Rotherham THE object of this Undertaking is to connect the Sheffield and Manchester, Huddersfield and Sheffield, Midland, and Great Grimsby Railways—the Ports of Li verpool and Birkenhead on the Western, and Great Grimsby on the Eastern Coast, affording accommodation to all the important intervening Manufacturing and Agri cultural Districts—in fact, to open the shortest and most direct communication between the Eastern and N 4 esters Counties of. England. It is proposed io commence at Woriley and run to the Midland at or near Masbrough, affording an outlet North and South—and thence forward to Gainsbrough. There are abutting on the West end of the Line the West-Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire, with a popu. lation of 2,321,958 —and on the East end Nottingham. shire and Noah Lincolnshire, with a population of 431,485. Under any circumstances, the intercourse between two such masses of population must be great ; but in this case it is mu c h L e y on d th e average f rom the different character of the country, and the pursuits of the inhabitants at the two termini—Lancashire and Yorkshire having redundant supplies of Coal, Ironstone Lime, and Manufactured Goods of every description,while Nottinghamshire and Lin colnshire and the East are dependent on the former Coun ties for these productions —and send their large supplies of Corn and Cent to the Yorkshire and Lancashire Markets.—The Traffic in Goods and Passengers between such important and mutually dependent Districts must be unusually great . _ _ A glance at the Map of England will show that the proposed Line will be, as nearly as may be, as/mg/Athlone. A circuitous Line is an evil, and opposed to public policy. The public suffer by being detained a longer time—by travelling a longer distance—and by paying a larger fare than is necessary—and the Proprietors suffer by being exposed to the risk, or rather to the certainty, of their property being destroyed at some future period by the com petition of a shorter and more direct Line. SIR ROBERT PREL, in his ptare in Parliament, on the 15th March, 1845, upon this point said—" He would make no reference to any individual Railway schemes, but he thought they ought to look forward to the result of mechanical im provements as applied to those schemes, and they might depend upon it (speaking of ultimate results) that the SHORTEST LINES WOULD BE PREFERRED—(hear, hear). The tendency of the Improvements which were almost daily introduced, WAS DECIDEDLY IN FAVOUR OF THE SHORTEST LINES." It may also be observed, that the Board of Trade in their detailed report, in reference to that part of the Line from Rotherham to Gainsbrough (which was submitted for consideration as a distinct scheme), state it to be "DECIDEDLY PREFERABLE to the Sheffield and Lincoln shire, or the Sheffield Branch of the London and York." And that " it a f fords a better connection, also, with the important Market Town of Rotherham, and with the North Midland Railway. AND GIVES AS DIRECT A COM MUNICATIoN AS COULD BE DESIRED WITH GAINSBROUGH AND LINCOLN." While so favourable an opinion is expressed upon this portion of the Line, it may also be fairly granted to the extension from Roth e rh a m t o W or tl e y. y ßy the Sheffield and Nlanchester, and the Sheffield and Rotherham Rail ways, the distance from Wortley to Rotherham is miles, which by the proposed extension will be reduced to 9. That portion of the Line will also open out one of the best Coal Fields in England, with inexhaustible supplies of Park Gate and Silkstone Coals—besides the Green Moor Quarries at Wortley,containing very superior Stone for paving a , ,d building purposes—while at 'lbw ti cliffe and Chapel Town, there are already most extensive Iron Works in active operation. At Rotherham and Masbrough—and in the immediate neighbourhood—there are large Iron and Steel Works, and other Manufactories, requiring qualities of Coal and Ironstone, from which at present they are almost excluded—on account of the heavy cost of carriage. It6therham is the great rattle Market of Yorkshire, and likewise an important Corn Market, and one of the objects sought to be attained by the promoters of this undertaking, is the shortest route from the Manufacturing to the Agricultural districts—and from the Agricultural to the great Markets of Yorkshire, and the consuming districts Westward. It will accommodate also the traffic of the localities through which it passes—and possesses the peculiar feature of following, as near as possible, the old route in which the stream of traffic, and especially pas sengers, has hitherto been accustomed to flow. Ihe district between Rotherham and Gainsbrough is destitute of Coal, and there is no Canal or Railway from which it can be supplied, excepting by a very circuitous route—in fact, the supply between Rotherham and Bawtry is entirely carted along the Turnpike Road. The cele brated Grindstones at Wickersley, with an immense quantity of the finest Freestone, from the far famed Roche Abbey Quarries might also be sent—the former to Sheffield, Manchester and Birmingham—and the latter to every pa rt o f the Kingdom, were an easier and cheaper mode of transit established. It is needless to remark, that any Line of Railway com manding th e advantages referred to, and connecting Lan cashire and West Yorkshire, with the Trent and the Humber, must prove a very ample Investment fir Capital indeed the returns of the existing traffic are highly satis factory. Surveys have been taken, and the Landowners gene rally are favourable to the project. The length of the Line is about 35 3 / 4 miles. There will be a clause in the Act of Parliament, limit ing the liability of each shareholder to the amount for which he may subscribe, and power will be taken to allow Interest at the rate of 4 per Cent, per annum upon the paid-up Capital, from the obtaining of the Act until the completion of the Railway. By the Subscribers' Agreement, authority will be given to the E'rovisional Directors to vary or alter the Line, or to enter into any arrangement which they may think ex pedient, previous to applying to Parliament in the ensuing session, The Directors congratulate the Shareholders upon their , very satisfactory position, having secured the valuable co operation and assistance or several influential companies. • W.F.HOYLE, • Solicitors.
