LONDON AGENCY - 18, cannon-street.
A concession has been gram ed by the Be gian Government for a
railway, coma encing by a junction with the West Flanders line,
about Midway heiween Courtray and Bruges. It passes through a
rich agricultural c-untry, through or close to the town of Dixniude
to Fumes, a town situate about three miles from the coast, at a vil-
lage called La Panne.
A glance at the map, which accnmpani,s the prospectus, will show
the imoortance of the communication which it is inten,, ed to esta-
blish by means of this railway this importance will be better under-
stood when it is stated th tt the Belgian Government contemwates
making at La Panne a harbour, which can be done at small expense.
The roadstead at anne Is IP culiarly adapted for the forma ion
of the harbour, which the Belgian Government contemplates making
as soon as this line of railway is sufficlenay advanced, in order that
La Panne may become the port whence the main between this country
and Belgium can be despatched. ' It is naturally protected against
the north and north-easterly. winds ; is accessible at all seasons
and, during the lowest tides, has a depth of water varying from 20
to 24 feet. It has this advantage over Ostend, that it can.always be
appro ched ; in addition to which it is twenty miles nearer to Dover
—the passage from the latter port being shortened by upwards of two

hours.
A careful analysis has been male of the present trafti principally
from &cum, ins e anatint from the Government, and the resu t is,
that aft, r a,lowing 50 per c• nt. tor working expenses a very large
percentage for Belgium - sufficient wouldbe e rrned to pay adi idend
of 7 -et' cent. on the entire atilt al of 201,000/. This is wholly irre-
cpective of the large additional traffic which mu-t come upon this
line when the intentions of the Belgian Government are ca tied out
Th Concess onnaire has also obtained the refusal of the concession
form lin, from Fairies to the Belgian fl ontier. near Dunkirk,
and which, when the line is completed from Calais to the latter port,
viii :le a source of achlitio.iel traffic to this railway
The 13e1.2 -an Gov-rnment has autho • ised the subscription of a'espl-
tal of 21)0 VOL, upon which it guarantees a minimum interest of
8,0001. Th • contrac ors. who have great confidence in the retorns
which the traffic will produce, have tonse,.ted to take 4,,000/ in
shares, which e rntt to p trticipate in the goarantee of the govern-
ment, and which wll be only entitled to receive interest after the
balattce 0 160,n,0 . shrill have been pa'd 5 per cent ; this arrange-
ment ena les the dire tors to t row the guarantee of the Goren
ment of 8,0,0/ per annum on that portion of the caoltal BOW 0.1:0P,1
to the public, and which, .thet-efore, will. enjoy a positive guarantee
of 5 pel c +4. from the B IgianGovernment.
The preliminary surveys hay.• been made, and a contract hat been
entered into wit highly respeetahle and responsible parties, Messrs.
Riche Freres, to t, fit, the line -a. cording to thetCahir des Charges,
and to .the satisfaction of the Government ; to provide the rolling
stock ; pay interest durin, construction,.at the rate of 5 per cent. per
annum; and all other expenses of adnakistration for the amount of
the capital and to complete and open the line for traffic within
eighteen months from the date of the approval ~f the definitive plans
b‘ !he 'Go ernme t, and .hich the contractor= have agreed to make
at th dS own cost, but subject to the approval of the Company's En-
gineer.
