„
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE AND CARLISLE 'RAIL-
ROAD.
PROSPECTUS.
The improvement of the communication between Newcastle-
upon-Tyne and Carlisle, or rather-between the Getman Ocean
and the Irish Channel, has occupied the attention of the Public
at differem periods during the last half century. The recent
limitation of a Canal from the Solway Frith' to Carlisldhas re-.
vived the subject,. and a strong feeling of the
expedieircy of
completing' the Line of communication has been, eXcited ; there.
appeared to be but one opinion as to the advantages of the mea-
'sure, and the only doubt entertained was; whether it would be
best effected by a continuation of the Canal already formed, .or
by a rail-road connnunicating with U.
.• During the summer Assizes. of fart year, a numerous. and
respectable County Neeting, convened by the high Sheriff' of
Northumberland, was held at Newcastle, and Committee was
appointed to inquire into the practicability 0' improving the ex-
isting communication between Newcastle and, Carlisle, and the
comparative eligibility of effecting that • imptavement.by a
Canal or a rail-road.
The Committee have.since proceeded diligently. in the per-
fortnaoce.of the ditties confided to them. They have availed
themselves of the advice and assistance of Mr. Chapman and
Mr. Jessop, civil engineers of eminence (the former possessing
considerable local information); and after a full investigation of
the subject, they haves closed their labours by a report; in which
they StuLC their opinion, that the establishment of a communica-
tion by a rail-road, between Newcastle and Carlisle, 4is a un-
dertaking which will be advantageous to those.whci may embark
in it, at the same time that it is an object of great importance
both to the landed And commercial interests of this part of the
kingdom, and that its execution will open a country rich in mi-
neral productions, and tend materially to promote
.agriculture,
manutactures and commerce.'

This report was presented by Sir John Edward Swinburne,
Baronet, the Chairman of the Committee, to a County Meeting,
convened by the High Sheriff of Northumberland, and held at
Newcastle on the 26th inst., when it was resolved, That the
meeting, concurring in the view taken of the subject by the
Committee, consider the establishMent of a communication by
a rail-road between Newcastle and Carlisle an object worthy of
the countenance of the country."
Under these encouraging circumstances, the measure propos-
al has been entered upon. It is strongly supported -by the
landed interests, united by the commercial and iminuflicturing
interests at each extremity of the line of communication, and
no doubt can be entertained of its being prosecuted effectually.
It may with confidence be asserted, that there are fei, if any
situations in Great Britain which present a surer prospect of
success to such an undertaking: there are no existing canal
interests to interfere with or to be injured by the proposed rail..
.road ; the country on both Sides of the line abounds in lead,
coal, lime, and other mineral productions, the transit of which
on• different portions of the line, independent of that of ma- '
chandize from one extremity to the other, has• been estimated
alone to produce a revenue sufficient to compensate those who
may engage in the undertaking. At the same time, imperfect •
as is the present medium of communication, the carriage of
merchandise between Newcastle and Carlisle is so considerable
as to justify the. confident expectation of a large additional
return from that source, when the proposed facilities .of con-
veyance shall be affbrded. • The whole line of way is pe-
culiarly favourable for taking the utmost advantage of steam
power.; abounding
,as it does with coal, which may be obtained
at a cheap rate,.
The country, through which the rail-road is intended to pass.
has been on former occasions more thin, once accurately sur-
veyed, with a view to a canal, which was then contemplatet4.; but
a minute survey has not yet been madefor the present purpose,
nor has the-precise line of the piopOSedrail-road been definitely
'fixed, though Mr. Chapman and Mr. Jessop have both examin-
ed the country, and suggested their ideas on the 'subject. There
is. not, however, the slightest doubt but the line'may be so ar-
ranged, that no annoyance or inconvenience will be attendant
on the benefits which must be derived to those landowners
through whose property it passes.
The proposed line communicates' with the Tine at New-
castle, and terminates at the basin of the canal at Carlisle, and
the whole length is 64 miles and a hall: The' expence of exe-
cuting the work has been estimated by Mr. Ch ap man at
252,4881. ; to this estimate Mr. Jessop has thought it right to
make an addition of 40,0001., on account of the advance in the
price of iron, and some other cirarmstances, making' in the
whole 202,488/., which Includes an allowance of no less a sum
than 32,9331. for incidents and unforeseen expences.
It is intended that the undertaking shall' he plaCed under the
rageent ohs a Board of Director*, assisted by such Sub-
boads as yeafter be appointed by the snbscribers.
The capital required for the undertaking is 300,000/., di-
vided into 3,000 shares M 1001. each, of whiclione-sixth part
is reserved for the landowners of the country through which the
line passes. The capital will be placed under the 'controul of
the Board of Directors, by whom the shares will be issued to
the. Subscribe r
An advance of 2/. per cent: on the sum subscribed is required
to be paid into the hands of the Bankers of the CompanYtci
the account of the Board of Directors, anti the remainder will'
be called for at•the discretion of the Board : but no further ad-
Vance will be requiredd until the plans and. surveys shall have
been completed, and an Act of Parliament obtained.
