sible English contractors, by which they undertake to pur-

nThis Company has been formed for the construction of' a
ail Way from Douglas to Peel (passing through St. John's),
tilthe Isle of Man. The improved trade of these important
I,Was, as well as the prosperous condition and increasing
...,
r•Pillation of the island, and the rapid augmentation of the
!lumber of visitors during late years, call for the immediate
Intr6duction of railways.
The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great; and
land '8 Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield
are avave average value ; whilst around the Coast there
extensive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea-
Land carriage, for Manure. The expense and trouble, bowever, of
carriage, have hitherto rendered these advantages corn-
Paratively unavailable.
Slate Quarries are in active operation; and the quality
°f the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to
‘IIY produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granito
tear St. John's compares favourably with that now used in
the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of
=ail Way facilities, become available for export.
One of the proposed Stations on the line will be at St.
'lobes, where the Courts of Tynwald meet, and which is
also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce
of these mines is now brought by land-carriage (there being
to water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly
ten miles, whilst Coals and other important materials, as
well as all necessaries required by the inland population,
are conveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides
these 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.
The principal towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown,
Itarasey, and Laxey : Douglas being the chief port, and the
treat conmercial depot, as well as the principal place of
arrival and departure of the steam packets plying to and
from the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin-
cipally conducted, employing upwards of 1,000 vessels;
the place of destination tor the produce is Douglas ; the
route is tedious, and the transit by the existing means ex-
ve.
The access to the Island is easy, and the means of coin-
tinniceion with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven,
Billoth, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by
sailing and steam vessels, are frequent and convenient.
Hence, Tourists visit the Island in large numbers, above
100,000 passengers having been landed at its Ports during
the past year. Such Visitors, attracted by the antiquarian
relics, scenery, and other objects of interest, would, as a
Matter of course, go by the proposed Railway from Douglas
to the interior, and across the Island to Peel.
The highest medical authorities bear testimony to the
kaubrty of the climate and purity of the water. The
picturesq le is united with the more solid advantage of cheap
Jiving, po, Nrotts being abundant and comparatively inex-
pensive, whils,,` the rates of duties on foreign produce are so
small as to rendeL" the Island most advantageous as a per-
