REAT WESTERN AND CORNWALL
JUNCTION RAILWAY, from Exeter to Falmouth.'
.4 Altai, 2,000,0004, in 100,000 Shares of 20/.'each.
Deposit, 11. 10s. per Share.
Th c proposed by this Company commences at. Cowley.
bridge .0 the vicinity of the city of Exeter, uniting at !lot point
with the Bristol and Exeter Line, traverses the centre of the
county of Devon, and the great mining district of Cornwall to the
town of Truro, whence it takes a southerly direction to, and ter.
asinates at, the port of Falmouth.
The line is integral between its termini, and will, by means of
the Bristol and Exeter and the Great Western Railways, connect
the port of Falmouth and the western counties with the metropolis
and the chief manufacturing towns in the north of England.
The line was surveyed, at a great expense, in 1636, by the Lon-
ion, Salisbury, Exeter, and Falmouth Railway Company, the pro-
moters of which applied to Parliament in the session of 1837 for
an Aft of incorporation, which had, after a protracted and search-
ing investigation, the sanction and report of a Committee of the
House of Commons in its favour. _ .

The present Company has, by an arrangement with the Share-
holders of the former, acquired the valuable plans, sections, and
other documentary evidence in support of the line, and it is thus
--gabled to present an undertaking sanctioned by a Committee of
the Legislature—a feature which distinguishes it from all the rail.
ways of :scent projection.
The notice' and deposits of plans required by the Standing Or-
ders of the Howes of Lords and Commons have been perfected.
A deposit of 11. 101. per share to be paid to the account of the
Acting Committee with the Bankers of the Company upon appro.
priatton. But its accordance with the arrangement entered into
with the Shareholders in the London, Salisbury, Exeter, and Fal-
mouth Railway Company, their Shares will be recognised on the
payment of ss. per share, part of the deposit, and the further sum
of 11. per share will entitle the holder to a certificate in the pre-
sent Company, representing a deposit of 11. 10s. ; the Subscribers'
agreement and Parliamentary contract being previously executed.
In the event of this undertaking not receiving the sanction o 1
the Legislature, the Parliamentary deposit of I/. per share will be
eturned to the Suhscribers without any deduction.

FAREWELL TO THE OLD YEAR-
Farewell to the Year, which will soon disappear,
May the next with success be attended ;
Through the universe wide, may Dame Fortune preside,
And commerce and trade be extended !
May kingdoms unite, in defence of our rights,
May freedom and justice e'er nourish ;
Prosperity smile round our own bonny isle,
Each subject his rights ever cherish !
May the sunshine of Peace all her prospects increase,
May health and contentment be near us ;
May friendship and joy all our moments employ,
And our conscience triumphantly steer us !
With wishes like those, and the cheapest of clothes,
Would Ilyam appeal to the nation ;
Ills gratitude, too, is unbounded to you,
For your favours and kind approbation!
Hts splendid success, 'tie a task to express,
In efforts you'll find no reaction ;
His clothing for all, and at prices so small,
Must ever ensure satisfaction!

.-~

For the holidry times, his stock now combines,
Of clothing a boundless collection ;
The great and the small, the short and the tall,
May choose from his splendid selection.
Observe—All garments at this establishment are marked the
price in plain figures, from which no abatement is made. Any
article exchanged, which is not approved of, or the money returned.
