MANCHESTER and LEEDS RAILWAY.
At a Public Meeting of the Bankers, Merchants, Manu-
facturers, and Traders of the Borough of Manchester, convened by
the Boroughreeve and Constables, pursuant to a requisition, nume-
rously and most respectably signed, and held in the Town Hall, on
Thursday, January 28, 1836, to obtain an expression of their opinion
on the proposed Railway between Manchester and Leeds,
JOHN MACVICAR, Esq., Boroughreeve, in the Chair.
Resolved unanimously—
On the Motion of J. C. HARTER, Esq., seconded by THOMAS
SHARI', Esq.,
1. That this Meeting views with the highest satisfaction the great
and increasing interest which the subject of Railways now excites
in the public mind, not only in the United Kingdom but on the
Continent of Europe and in America, being fully convinced that
among the triumphs achieved by combining the truths of science
with the ingenuity and excellence of art, there is none calculated to
produce more important results than the application of the ;.tiTen-
dons power of the steam engine to the purposes of locomot.on.
On the Motion of ROBERT GARNETT, Esq., seconds`. by
J. P. WESTHEAD, Esq.,
A.. That the vast and rapidly-increasing population of Man-
chester and its dependencies, no legs than the immense capital
embarked in its trade, both foreign and domestic, and its com-
mercial importance generally (in • all of which it is second to the
Metropolis only); imperatively require that it should possess the
utmost facility for the transport of .passengers and merchandize,
and in the most cheap and expeditious manner, in every direction
which the extensive ramifications of its trade may require. •
On the Motion of Jour; EDWARD TivLoa, -Esq„ seconded by
JOHN CHEETHAM, Esq.,
3. That this Meeting rejoices that among the various lines of
railway now projected that have more or less relation to the town
of Manchester, is one between Manchester and Leeds, which, will
not only connect the two great scats of the cotton and woollen
manufactures of the kingdom, and traverse the populous and im-
portant manufacturing districts that lie between these two towns,
but will also open a direct and rapid communication between the
ports of Liverpool and Hull, by means of the Liverpool and Man-
chester Railway on the one hand, and the Leeds and Selby Rail-
way, with a projected line from Selby to Hull on the other.
On the motion of SAMUEL FLETCHER, Esq., seconded by 11. H.
WiLsos7; Esq.,
4. That the Company of Projectors of the proposed Railway
from Manchester to Leeds being prepared to apply to the Legisla-
ture, in the ensuing session, for their Act of Incorporation, a peti-
tion to both Houses of Parliament, founded upon the resolutions
already passed, do emanate from this Meeting, praying that the
Act so to be applied for may be obtained and passed into a law, and
that the following petition be adopted.
(Signed) JOHN MACVICAR, Chairman.
The Boroughreeve having left the Chair, and Mark Philips,
Esq., M.P., having been called thereto, on the motion ofiAMES
Woon, Esq., seconded by SAMUEL BROOKS, Esq.,
5. That the cordial thanks of this. Mtseting are due, and hereby
given, to the Boroughreeve and Constables for their prompt acqui-
escence in calling:the Meeting, and to the Chairman for his conduct
in the Chair. •
• (Signed) • •MARK PHILIPS.
