From an anxious desire to meet the public convenience, and ',vial
a view to placing the varied advantages of their Railway, inowspect
both of business and pleasure, raore within the reach of every class
of the commuity, the Directors of this Company have resoled, on
and after the Ist of May ensuing—
To inareass the number of the trains and to accelerate their spee4,
and vary the hours of departure and art ival of many of them.
To carry Second-Class Passengers with their Express Train&
To abolish their Slow Trains altogether, and to convey Third-
Class Passengers at the Parliaments., fares, with their or.lin lry
Trains, four times a day each way, and at hours to allow of an early
departure and late return to and Air.
To make the following great Reduction in their Fares through-
out :
Express Train, first Slags reduced to Vs.

-second class i7s.
Fast Trains, first class —17 s.
secon class —14 s.
Mixed Trains, first class 14,.
second class —10 s.

bus fare between Gosport and Portsmouth is reduced from Is. to Gd.
each Passenger, including the same weight o Fagg. ge-as allowed by
the Railway Company. First class, 1121b.f ; second .elaes, 841 b.;
third class, 561 b.
Steps are in progress to increase the convenience of passengers
proceeding by steam to France, the Channel Islands, the Southern
Coast, and the Isle or Wight. This route to France, although s-me-
what longer, is by far the most certain tubl secure. from there being
good harbours for departur, and arrival at both ports.
Parcels will be carried at a greatly reduced scale, the throughout
charges between Southampton, Gosport. end London, including
delivery by passenger trains, being
to fixedlb as follows, viz.—

The Committee of Shareholeers call the attention of the origi-
nal Subscribers and actual Holders. of Scrip in this Company to
the advertisements issued on the 16th and 18th instant by the Direc-
tors of the London and York Company.
The first expresses their confidence in ob(.l2nlng their Bill. This
the Committee conceive to be the greatest misfortune that can happen
to the Shareholders, as calls must then be made, and the shares be-
come valueless
The second announces that the attention of the :r'irectors is being
" directed to the practicability of treating with axy rivals upon
terms advantageous Co the London and York Shareholders." The
Committee give the Directors Lull credit for the intenti)n thus ex-
pressed, and have the satisfaction of feeling that the steps they are
taking will facilitate the Directors In the attainment of this most im-
_portant object.
The holders of many thousand shares have already signified their
arccurrence in the views which led to the formation of this Com-
tnittOe. and as they almost universally express an opinion in favour
of an Amalgamation with the Eastern Counties Hallway, the Com-
enwee Are nirecting their attention to this point, and only remdre the
early adhesion of those Shareholders who h ,ye nut yet replied to the
circula TS to insure success.
The Cetnittee, in reply to many letters received offering pecu-
niary sup,loll. beg to state that being personally holders of nearly
5,000 sears', they decline receiving any subscriptions, and iniend
bearing all t. he expews, unless the Shar_holders in the Loudon and
York line vote the payment from the general funds.
