This Company has been formed for the construction of a
Railway from Douglas to Peel (passing through St. John's),
in the Isle of Man. The improved trade of these important
towns, as well as the prosperous condition and increasing
Population of the island, and the rapid augmentation of the
-tau/Taber of visitors during late years, call for the immediate
introduction of railways.
The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great; and
its Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield
and avoye average value ; whilst around the Coast there
are extensive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea-
'Weed for Manure. The expense and trouble, however, of
land. Triage, have hitherto rendered these advantages com-
Varatively unavailable.
Slate Quarries are in active operation; and the quality
of the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to
artY Produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granite
near St. John's compares favourably with that now used in
the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of
railway facilities, become available for export.
3. ?Ile of the proposed Stations on the line will be at St.
''Oun'a, where the Courts of Tynwald meet, and which is
also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce i
'of these mines is now brcught by land-carriage (there being
'of
water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly
Wellmtles,e"whilst Coals and other important materials, as
as all necessaries required by the inland population,
the
-re e4riveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides
se items of traffic the Fairs which are frequently held
during' the year in this district,, must add considerably to
the annual revenue of the Company.
Tha princ pa
il towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown,
itarasey, and Laxey : Douglas being the chief port, and the
reat commerciaarrivall depot, as well as the principal place of
aand departure of the steam packets
plying to and
from the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin-
cipally conducted, employing the place of destination for the produce is Douglas ; the
upwards of 1,000 vessels;
tout() is tedious, and the transit by the existingpensive. means ex-
The access to the Island is easy, and the means of cora
12,-I.l.mication with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven,
Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by
Rieticomg and steam vessels, are frequent and convenient.
100,004 Tourists visit the Island in large numbers, above

orts of Douglas and Peel.
The Electric Telegraph to England has been recently
established.
The Lines of Rail will be single, with requisite sidings.
The length of Line will be about twelve miles, and the
gradients easy throughout. The landowners and popula-
tion along it are most favourable to the project.
From Statistics recently collected on the spot, with much
care, by competent persons, and well supported by Official
Returns, it is confidently expected that the Traffic wi,l re-
turn a good Dividend upon the Invested Capital, The fol-
lowing is an Estimate of the Traffic :

Plans, Sections, sc., of the Line are completed, and all
ecessary forms are being complied with, in accordance with
the St• nding Orders of the Court of Tynwald to obtain an
Act of the Local Parliament.
Neither Imperial or Local Taxes are levied in the Island,
and those heavy charges which tend so much to reduce the
value of Railway property in England and other countries,
no less than to diminish the Shareholders' Dividends, can-
not, in any degree whatever, prevail with respect to this
Lino.

An eminent Contractor's firm have agreed to purchase
the land make the Railway, provide and fit up all Stations,
furnish Rolling Stock for working the Line, and Telegraphs,
Upon satisfactory terms. Interest at 5 per cent. per Annum
will be allowed, until the openiag of the Line, on the amount
paid upon shares.
An advantageous arrangement can be made with respon-
sible parties to Lease the Line for 7. 14, or 21 years.
Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained from
the Secretary, Solicitors, or Brokers of the Company.
