LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN
RAILWAY.
From an anxious desire to meet the public convenience, and with
a view to placing the varied advantages of their Railway, in reppect
both of business and pleasure, more within the reach of every class
of the community, the Directors of this Company have resolved, on
and after the Ist of May ensuing—
To increase the number of the trains and to accelerate their speed,
and vary the hours of departure and arrival of many of them.
To carry Second-Class Passengers with their Express Trains.
To abolish their Slow Trains altogether, and to convey Third-
Class Passengers at the Parliamentaw fares, with their ordinary
Trains, four times a day each way, and at hours to allow of an early
departure and late return to and fro.
To make the following great Redaction in their Fares through-
out:
Express Train, first class reduced to 20s.
second class —17 s.
Fast Trains, first class 175.
second class —14 s.
Mixed Trains, first class 14..
second class —10 s.
Third class at.......... 65. Gd.
By an arrangement with the Floating Bridge Company, the Omni-
bus fare between Gosport and Portsmouth is reduced from Is. to 6d.
each Passenger, including the same weight of
;luggagegae as allowed by
the Railway Company. First class, 1121 b. scn class, 841 b.;
third class, SGlb.
Steps are in progress to increase the convenience of passengers
proceeding by steam to France, the Channel Islands, the Southern
Coast, and the Isle of Wight. This route to France, although same-
what longer, is by far the most certain and secure, from there being
good harbours for departure and arrival at both ports.
Parcels will be carried at a greatly reduced scale, the throughout
charges between Southampton, Gosport, and London, including
delivery by passenger trains, being fixed as follows, viz.—
Is. Od. for 28 lb.
Is. Gd. „ 56 lb.
2s. Od. „ 1121 b.

QOUTH MIDLAND, OR LEICESTER,

RAILWAY.
Notice is hereby given, that a General Meeting of the Shareholders
or the South Midland Railway Company, will be held at the Railway
Station, Derby, on SATURDAY, the 2d of May next, at Two o'clock in
the afternoon, for the purpose of giving their sanction, or otherwise,
to the further proceeding with the Bills now before Parliament rela-
ting to this undertaking.
The votes will be taken according to the amount of Scrip held by
each Shareholder, present, or represented by proxy, at the Meeting ;
and every person claiming to vote, either in his own right, or as
proxy, will be required to produce and deliver up the Scrip attached
together, with the name and address of the owner affixed, whose
♦ote will then be noted, and the Scrip returned.
Forms of Proxy may be ob ained by applying to the Secretary, at
the Company's Offices, Midland Railway Station, Leicester.
The Directors think it right to inform the Shareholders, that the
preamble of the Bill for the Huntingdon Branch of the South Mid-
land Railway, has already been declared proved by the Committee of
the souse of Commons, and that the Bill for the Rugby and Hunt-
ingdon Railway (a competing line) has been rejected.
The Committee on the Bill for the Northampton and Bedford lines
Is appointed to meet on the 27th instant.
Dated this 13th day of April, 1846.

)3UCKLNGHAMSHIRE AND OXFORD
AND BLETCHLEY JUNCTION RAILWAY.
Interest guaranteed by the London and Birmingham Company.
At the present moment, when public confidence in railway pro-
jects has been much diminished, and when many of them have been
entirely abandoned, the Committee of Management of the above •
mentioned undertaking think proper to announce to their subscribers
that their expectations of success are entirely unabated.
Mature consideration and observation of the circumstances of
other railways have only confirmed the Committee in their con-
viction that the Buckinghamshire Railway is calculated to be profit-
able to the shareholders, beneficial to the districts through which
It will pass, and conducive to the general interests of the country.
The Committee, therefore, prosecute their undertaking with every
confidence of final success, and advantage to all the parties concerned.

JAONDON, WARWICK, LEAMINGTON
AND KIDDER3IINSTER RAILWAY.
The Directors of this Company regret to state that this measure
has been defeated on standing orders in the House of Comihons, in
consequence of which they consider it their duty, pursuant to the
authority for that purpose given them by the subscribers' agree-
ment, immediately to wind up and adjust the business transactions,
liabilities, and affairs of and connected with the undertaking.
These liabilities are now being ascertained and settled ; but as
some delay must necessarily take place before this can be effected,
the Directors hereby give notice that they will be prepared to re-
tut n to each person, entitled to shares, :1/. 17s. 6d. per share (as
soon as the amount deposited by this Company with the Accountant-
General shall have been repaid), on such person signifying his as-
sent to receive the same, and a further pro rata division of any ba-
lance of the funds remaining in hand after the final settlement of all
claims upon the Company and Directors; in full for his share and
;interest in the undertaking.
The Directors have every reason to expect that the entire deduc-
tlmt ultimately to be made will not exceed 10s. per share.
The persons entitled to shares may, on application by letter, or at
the Company's office, on and after the 18th instant, obtain the re-
quisite forms, which are to be filled up, and, together with the scrip,
deposited at such office, and at the expiration of seven clear days
from such a deposit a check will be delivered to the party signing such
form, or to the bearer of it, for the amount per share returned, to-
gether with a certificate entitling the holder to a pro rata division of
any remaining funds as above-mentioned.
The parties sending scrip certificates by post will do so at their own
esk, but are strongly recommended to register their letters, and to
address them to the Managing Directors of this Company.
