"To the Chairman and Directors of the Royal Sardinian
Railway.
"Gentlemen,--I have to report that the works on Rail-

,glesias (the centre of the mineral district); and 4, Porto
Messrs.
to Ozieri, are in full progress, and your Contractors,

rangements forcontinuing operations upon a scale calculated
t
complete Railways 1 and 2, and that portion of Railway 4
Which lies between Porto Torres and the city of Sassari, by
the
autumn of next year. These lengths will form together
shout 90 miles, which I have no doubt will be completed in
the course of next year.
"This for,Vard position of matters is mainly owing to the
settlement that was at length effected with the Italian Go-
"ninent of the working plans, sections, drawings, and
specifications having reference to the above-named Railways,
.
the preparations for the works that have been steadily
going on for some time past.
" Throughout the whole of the summer and autumn of this
Year your Contractors have been engaged in carrying mate-
rials and plant to the site of the Railways, in purchasing the
and required for the works, and in erecting barracks for the
Workmen.
"These preparations having been made beforehand on a
scale commensurate with the object in view, active operations

the con .truction of the Railways were commenced imme-
diately on the setting in of the working season. There are
already upwards of 2,000 men at work upon the Railways 1
'Uri 2 alone, and the numbers ire rapidly increasing under a
Well organised staff.
"The commencement of operations has been hailed by the
,
ulhabitants with great enthusiasm, and has given rise to
VPular and joyous demonstrations along the line, which
kve been shared in by the civil and military authorities of
Lee country.

The object of this Association is to furnish the press and
•Vil.e public of England, the Conlir ent of Europe, and the
estern world with a fuller and more regular supply of
telegraphic intelligence than the present system prove e es.
The rapid and constant supply of early telegraphic news
has grown into a necessity, not only to the press of every
Country, but to all persons engaged in commerce and public
affairs. But in proportion to the recoa,nition of its increasing
importance, the danger and inconvenience of drawing it
through one channel have bee' me more and more obvl ,us.
The danger arises from the fact that there are no MOILII3 of
testin.! the accuracy of the information which is thus put
into circulation ; and the inconvenience is evident in the de-
-1:41,11191,„ Jae pies and the buth.4lF reg2qAkex _ 4
1 el expense, on a single source of supplir.
The danger and inconvenience are universally felt, and a
remedy would have been attempted long since but for the
almost insurmountable difficulty of establishing an organisa-
tion of corresponde ice sufficiently comprehensive to meet the
demands of so vast an enterprise. Such an undertaking
would have no legitimate title to the con!' ience of the public
unless it presented a marked superfoi ity in the scope and
Character of its resources over the existing machinery.
The promoters of " The Telegraphic News Association
(Limited," after much preparation and expenditure
nature,
,
and favoured by circumstance+ of an exceptional
are in a position to undertake this responsible function,
With the certainty of being able to execute it in a complete
gin
and effect ve manner. Distributed at all points wit
the range of the electric wire, where the most Important
intelligence, political and commercial, is to be obtained
at first hand, a staff of experienced correspondents
has been organised, by whose established relations with
authentic sources of information ensure a priority of intelli-
gence upon which imptieit reliance may be placed, and whose
.tried discretion and activity offer the safest guarantees for
"eaPatch and punctuality. Special arrangements have been
Made for procuring early and accurate, and, In many in-
glances, exclusive information in connection with the Ame-
rican civil war and the progress of the new Mexican empire,
while from China and the East Indies intelligence will fre-
quently be transmitted via St. reterburg when other sources
of information are silent.
Rigid impartiality and complete neutrality will be main-
tained in the language and substance of all telegrams issued
by the assoc ation. A steady adherence to this vital prin-
ciple will, it is hoped, secure the confidence of statesmen,dip-
lornatists, the press, and the commercial community, and
tend finally to establish the authority and extend the utility
01 the design.
A careful estimate has been made of the probable financial
results of the undertaking, assuming the highest scale of
expenditure and the lowest of receipts. The conclusions
arrived at justify the anticipation of a large return upon a
small outlay.
For the purpose of accomplishing these objects, it is pro-
posed to form an association, to he called "The Telegraphic
News Association (Limited)," with a capital of £50,000, in
0,003 shares of £lO each, of which LI will be payable en
IlePOSit and £1 on allotment, beyond which it is not considered
lkety that any further call will be required.
The head office of the Association for England and the
Western world will be in London, and for the Continent of
Europe in Brussels.
