together on the line will not extend to one mile, and no viaduct or
embankment will be more than forty feet in height.
There are about 150 kilns in the neighbourhood of the lime
district, producing at present about 500,000 tons of line annually
(4-sths of which are carried northwards), and many coal pits
producing upwards of 500,000 tons ; and for a very large portion
of this produce the proprietors of the lime-kilns and coal
pits would gladly avail themselves of this railway, as a
means of transit to the upper parts of Carmarthen hire and Pent.
brokeshire, and the whol of the county of Cardigan, as well
as to Kidwelly, Pembrey, and Idanelly ; and from statistics
carefully prepared by this company, the directors feel justified in
asserting, that at least 100,000 tons of coal for burning lime would
be conveyed at I%cl. per ton per mile a distance of six miles at least
on the line, and that at least 400,000 tons of lime, and 250,000 tons
of coal and culm for domestic use, would be conveyed every year at
d.7per mite an average distance of 30 miles, and these quantities
would be greatly increased from year to year, to say nothing of any
coal ,or steaming purposes brought down to be shipped at Pembrey
Docks and Milford Haven, or elsewhere.
That the traffic in coal and lime would be borne over this line
there can be no doubt, as it will save the consumer at least 75 per
cent. in cost of carriage and turnpikes ; and as the cost of the lime
and coal at the pits is trifling compared to the cost of carriage at a
distance of 20 miles and upwards, it follows that, with the sarneout-
lay as at present, the farmer will be enabled to increase his consump-
tion of lime many times beyond that at present, to his own benefit
and that of the burners.

There are nearly 2,000 square miles of land in the counties of Car-
marthen, Cardigan, and Pembroke, the greater portion of which is
cultivated or capable of cultivation. The nature of the soil requires
lime as a manure, the major part Of which lime, as well as the neces-
sary supply of coals for its manufacture, and for domestic purposes,
coming from one district of the line of the: proposed mineral branch,
where only it is to be obtained, is at present conveyed by horses
waggons, and carts, at an average expense to the purchaser or 6d. to
Is. per ton per mile for carriage only; about 300 per cent. more than
the charges of the proposed railway.

It is also reasonable to suppose that the demand for the local coal,
of Carmarthenshire would greatly increase with the facility of ob-
taining it a comparatively Small cost.
There are many millions of eak,, larch, fir, and other trees in the
neighbourhood of this line, at present of bdt small value; but on its
construction, and when means exist for their economical transit,
they would find a ready and remunerative market.
The traffic in wheat, barley, oats, flour, black cattle, sheep, and
pigs has increased so much within the last four years, that it is esti-
mated that from these articles alone a considerable sum per annum
would be receivable for transit.
The carriage of merchandise from the*various tnanufadtories and
wholesale houses in England to the shopkeepers of Carmarthenshire,
Cardiganshire, and the upper part of Pembrokeshire, is also an item
not to be overlooked.

Present traffic in lime to Cardiganshire and the upper
parts of Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, con-
veyed on an average a distance of thirty miles, at
I%cl. per ton per mile (in lieu of Gd. to Is. per mile,
the present expense), is calculated to pr04uce...... £75,000 0 0

Or equal to a dividend of nearly 736 per cent. per annum on the
capital of the Company.

It will be observed that whilst the cattle, wheat, &c. traffic is put
at an extremely low estimate, no allowance whatever is calculated
for passenger traffic or harbour dues from the port of Cardigan—facts
which cannot fail to strike the most casual observer. The working
expenses, on the contrary, are assessed at the highest estimate
known on any line. The result must be found in the decreased cost
of construction, the fruit of a close attention to the expenditure of
similar undertakings in former years.
Public meetings have been held in the various towns along the
course of the intended Railway, and without the cost of advertise-
ments or other usual means of obtaining subscriptions, upwards of
250,0001. have already been subscribed in the country districts.
The plans, sections, and books of reference are ready, and will be
deposited in ample time to comply with the standing orders.
