Turner, and Deane, Colchester.
The original capital of this Company, fixed at 230,0001., is
bow reduced to 210,000/. ; and under the arrangements cam.
Vete(' With tie Eavern Counties Railway Company, is practi-
tallY made a Five per Cent. Stock in perpetuity, with the pro 7
bability of an increased return in future years beyond that rate.
An agreement has been concluded with the Eastern Counties
Away, and has received the sanction of their shareholders at
'General Meeting, for Leasing this Line of Railway to this
rapany, at a rent of 10,500/. per annum, for three years, and
8,400/. afterwards in perpetuity, with an equal division of the
nett profits beyond that rent -between the Eastern Counties
Railway Company and this Company. The prospects of traffic
are such as to leave no doubt that the interest on the Capital
kill never be less than 5 per cent., while there is great proba-
bility of the annual return being considerably more. The von-
tractors have also been required to engage to pay out of the
"Pital 5 per cent. interest on all moneys received by the Com-
ta°37. until the rent from the Eastern Counties Company shall
ecotne payable.
The estimate covers the construction of a single line to the
waterside at Harwich, and the stations, and land, bridges,
and culverts for a double line, and sufficient accommodation,
by an extensive jetty, for the traffic to and from the Railway
aid the sea ; and the Engineer has provided Contractors, with
I:,,onaible sureties, who have undertaken for this sum of
14(.000/. to execute the whole of these works. purchase all
'"e laud, and pay the Parliamentary, and preliminary, and
;Lace expenses, engineering, surveying, and conveyancing, and
rye per cent. on the calls paid during the construction of the
lineasbefure-mentioned, and bear every contingency, so that
Ito excess of expenditure can possibly fall upon the Proprietors,
