GREAT INDIAN PENINSULAR
RAILWAY COMPANY.
(From the Bombay Bi-Monthly Times of March 31.)
The Committee of the Great Indian Peninsular Rail-
way Company have issued the following circular The
London Board of Directors of this Company, having resolved
that no shares shall be allotted in London after the 13th
of April, 1846, but that all shares formerly reserved for
India which then remain unallottcd shall be. allotted in
England, the provisional committee in Bombay, notwith-
standing the measures adopted for closing the list, will be
prepared, in consequence of that resolution, to receive appli-
cations for shares in the Company up to the date now spe-
cified, after which no further application will be attended to.
The Committee deem this a fitting occasion to intimate, for
the information of the public, that the surveys and investi-
gations which have been carried on during the past few
months by the engineers and other officers of the Company,
have elicited results of a highly favourable nature, and that
the information now in their possession, as to the general
features of the line, would have warranted far more flatter-
ing expectations, as to its advantages and capabilities, even
than the documentary fact,-, originally available, led the
projectors themselves to entertain. The tract between Bom-
bay and Tannah is almost entirely devoid of engineering
difficulties, while the country lying between the last-named
place, and the foot of the Maisel Uhaut, though of a more
intricate character, will, it is believed, afford a fair average
line, involving few works of magnitude or expense. The
Ghaut itself, the examination of which is nearly completed,
has been found perfectly practicable; and though, of course,
calling fur appliances which are not likely to be elsewhere
required, will, from all appearances, tax neither the ingenuity
of the engineer, nor the funds of the Company, to nearly so
great an extent as was anticipated. In the absence of the
engineer's report, which is as yet delayed, of the surveys in
progress beyond the Ghent, the committee cannot speak po-
sitively with respect to that part of the line, but the unoffi-
cial information they have ES yet received is very promis-
ing, and they have no doubt that this will be speedily con-
firmed by official documents. On the whole, therefore, as
regarls the physical examination of the country, the pros-
pects of the project, as far as can be perceived, are in the
highest degree encouraging. Influenced by thisconsideration,
the Committee have resolved to usestrenuons efforts to begin
the actual construction of some part of the works without
delay, to which end detailed surveys of the country between
Bombay and Tannah are in progress, which it is hoped will
be concluded in sualcient time bfore the monsoon, to allow
of the Committee taking advantage of that season, (when
active operati ns in the field will of necessity be suspended)
to submit to Government the plans, selections, and other
papers, necessary as the basis for an application for pei
aeon to commence the undertaking. Whatever direction tbse.
trunk line into the interior may eventually follow, the r
to Tannah must certainly form a portion of it, and it :thast e
been determined to make thli commencement le ,s in the ex-
pectation of immediate profit than with a view to familiarise
the natives of India with the construction and working of
railroads, and to afford a school for the instruction of such
artisans and labourers asthe company may require to employ
in their more extended operations. With respect to sta-
tistical
details, it is only necessary to mention that the in-
quiries which have been made in India have tended to con-
Arm, in the most satisfactory manner, the accuracy ( f
information collected in England by Mr. Chapman, and
which furnished the projectors with data on which to found
their preliminary calculations. When the exact coarse of
the main line is finally determined, the fruits of hive in-
quiries will assume a. more definite shape, ard; become
more directly applicable to the solution of the question
of profit. The above presents a mcst cheering view of
the prospects of the proposed undertaking ; and it
seems quite clear that unless any obstacle should arise from
the measures of Government—a contingency in the last
degree improbable—a portion of the intended line •of rail-
way will ere long be in coarse of construction. Although
little publicity has hitherto been given to the proceedings
of the company, it is evident that its officers have not been
idle; and There is, we believe, every reason to hope
that before the commencement of the rains, the survey of
the whole sketch of country between Bombay and the Cenn-
gathurree, will be completed. We are glad to perceive that
it has been determinea to commence the actual construction
of the works between Bombay and Lamle at an early date.
This is an arrangement, the judicionmess of which can ad-
mit of no (111Ce.:;.;11, far by its adoption the native artisans
and labourers will become familier wills the details of rail-
way operatiens, and bo enabled to execute hereafter, in a

THE NEWSPAPER PRESS DIRECTORY characterises this
journal as the " Ablest" of the " Popular Papers." It says there
is no " Paper conducted with more talent or success," and that
"it is especially remarkable, not only for the great quantity of
.news it affords, and the admirable arrangement of its matter,—well
illustrated by accompanying observations,—but for the ability and
variety of its original articles, in the form of leaders and letters.
The advantage of this ability is enhanced by its being displayed on
other than mere political questions, so that the range of topics is
more.large and generally interesting. Thus it is worth mentioning,
that it was the only paper which, during the late controversy be-
tween the Press and the Bar, took up the case of the latter, in a
series of letters marked by great talent."
