L O.N DON 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 respect
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 art ival 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 Parliamentary fares, with their ordinary
Trains, four tunes a day each way, and at hours to allow of an early
departure and late return to and fro.
To mar, the following great Reduction in their Fares through-
ant

Express Train, first clans reduced to 20s.
second class —17 s.
Past Trains, Ara class 175.
second class —14 s.
Mixed Trains, first class —14 s.
second class —10 s.
Third class at...... 6s. 6d.

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 luggage as allowed by
the Railway Company. First class, 1121 b.; second class, 841 b.;
thicei class, 561 b.
Uteps are in progress to increase the convenience of passengers
Ibroceeding by steam to France, the Channel Islands, the Southern
coast, and the Isle of Wight. This route to France, although ssine-
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
deaVarY., by passenger trains, being fixed as follows, viz.—

Is. Od. for 281 b.
Is. 6d. ~ 56 lb.
23. Od. „ 112 lb.

Time Bills, giving full partieularW, are in course of publication.

BUCKINGHAMSHIRE AND OXFORD
AND BLETCHLEY JUNCTION RAILWAY.

Interest guaranteed by the London and Birmingham Company.
At the present moment, *hen 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-
?talon 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.

WARWICK, LEAMINGTON

The Directors of this Company regret to state that this measure
has been defeated on standing orders in the House of Commons, 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 win', 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,

tu! n to each person, entitled to shares, :1!. 17s. 6.1. per share (as
soon as the amount deposited by this Company with the Accountant-

tent to receive the same, and a further pro rata division of any ba-
ianee 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.

tion ultimately to he made will not exceed 10s. per share.

the Company's office, en and after the 18th instant, obtain the re-
quisite fOrms, which are to be tilled up, and, together with the scrip,

gether with a certificate entitling the holder to a pro rata division of
any remaining funds as above-mentioned.

SUCCESSFUL RESULTS of the OPENING
of L. 141 CAM'S New Show-room, 36, GRACECHRUCH-
STREET.

Successful results have our efforts obtained,
And a host of new patrons already we've gained,
As such is the case, we acknowledge to all
Our gratitude deep for their kind-hearted call.
The Show-room of Hyam combines great attraction,
Where talent, first rate, is developed in action ;
The produce of England and France is displayed,
And adds to the lustre of Hyam's great trade.

His Fashions for Spring are the theme of delight,
Whilst splendour and cheapness together unite ;
And praises are lavished by thousands who flock
To see Hyam's wonders and gaze on his stock.

So levers of fashion we humbly solicit
The favour, the kindness, the aid of a visit.
As with confidence great we are led to suppose
In future you'll patronise Ryan' for Clothes.
