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 hare resolved, on

To increase the number of the trains and to accelerate their speed,
and vary the hours of departure and anival of many of them.
To carry Second-Class Passengers with their Express Traine.
To abolish their Slow Trains altogether, and to convey Third-
Class Passengers at the Parliamentary 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 Reduction in their Fares through-
fat

Express Train, first class reduced to 2es.

secont class —14 s.
Mixed Trains, first class
