CALEDONIAN EXTENSION RAILWAY.
The Committee of Management have the satisfaction of an-
nouncing to the Shareholders, that the 11 for incorporating the
Company having passed Standing Orders, hits been introduced into the
House of Commons, and will be forwarded through Parliament with
the least possible delay.
A Meeting of the Shareholders has been called, in accordance with
the Sessional Orders recently passed by both Houses of Parliament,
at which it is necessary that one-third of -the capital of the Company
should be represented.
Shareholders who are unable to be present are requested to lode.
their Scrip with any of the following parties, who will give a receipt
for the same, and return the Scrip after it has been produced to the
Meeting, viz. :
Mr. John Marr, Secretary to the Cernpany, 28, Parliament-street,
Westminster ; Messrs. Hope and Oliphant, W. S., Princes-street,
Edinburgh; Messrs. Grahame, Maxwell, and Co., St. Vincent-street,
Glasgow.

In consequence of the works being now limited to the Western
Extension, the Directors will be enabled +either to reduce the amount
of the shares or to restrict the stun to be called upon each to a
very considerable extent.
The project, as now limited, consists, first, of the Branch from
Lesmahagow to the Clydesdale Junction Railway at Hamilton,
opening a direct communication from *the most valuable' mineral
Held in the West of Scotland to the city of Glasgow. from which a
very large return may be expected, as:the gas coal of Lesmahagow
is well known for its superior quality, and for that description of
coal there is now an unlimited demand for exportation, as well as
for home consumption. The funds alresuly in the hands of the Di-
rectors will be applied, in the first instance, to the construction of
this line.

The other portions of the line will open a direct communication
in conjunction with the Caledonian Railway from the important
town and neighbourhood of Ayr, with Edinburgh on one band, and
Carlisle and the manufacturing districts of England on the other.
These lines also pass through extensive mineral fields, and the local
traffic will be considerable, but the Direct.ors do not look on Vie im-
mediate formation of these works as equally pressing, inasmuch
as the traffic cannot be completely developed until after the com-
pletion of the Edinburgh branch of the Caledonian Railway.
Under these circumstances it will rot be necessary to press ineon-
veniently on the shareholders by early or frequent calls.
A question will come before the metting as to the propriety of
inserting a clause in the Bill, authorising the Directors to allow in-
terest on the amount of calls from the date of
J. H payment.
