This line will branch off from the Eastern Counties. Railway at
Norwich, proceed by Dereham, Peterborough. and Stamford, and
join the Midland Counties Railway urar Leicester. A direct Rail-
way communisation will be thus established between the Eastern
Counties and the whole of the Midland and Northern Counties of
England, shorter by fifty miles, as regards all Norfolk and the
greater part of SuffOlk, than either of the proposed Northern Lines
by the way of Cambridge. The wool-growers of these Counties
will thus obtain a most desirable facility of access to their principal
markets, and fish from Yarmouth (to which the Eastern Counties
Railway extendi) will be conveyed by this line to the great mane-
faeturing towns of the North as speedily as to the Metropolis, which
will be in effect opening up so many new markets for the produce of
the fisheries of the eastern coast.
To the Merchants of Amsterdam, Hamlsurgh, Lubec, and most
of the other great Commercial Towns of the North of Europe, this
will also be the shortest road to Birmingham, Manchester, Notting-
ham, gheftield, and other principal seats of the manufactures of
England.
A survey of the line is now. in progress, and as soon as it is com-
pleted a more detailed prospectus, with the names of the Provi-
sional Committee, will be issued.
Applications for Shares will in the mean time be received by
the Undersigned, and by Mows. Rackham and Mosse, and John
Oddity Taylor, Esq., Solicitors, Norwich ; Messrs. Sayers and
Wood, Solicitors, Yarmouth ; Messrs. Berridge, Berridge, and
MacauleY, solicitors, Leicester; John Etriek, Esq., National Pro-

which will be divided annually, and may be applied to the reduc-
tion of the premiums, or the augmentation of the suns assured.

and justice than any other, and it is particularly advantageous to
persons of advanced years, who cannot expect to participate in many
septennial or decennial divisions.

the most recent and accurate observations of the duration of human
life, may he obtained at the office, as above, with every other in-
formation respecting the Society.
