SOLICITORS.
Mr. John Duncan, 72, Lombard-street ; Messrs. Sperling,
Turner, and Deane, Colchester.
The original eapitel of this Company, fixed at '230,000/., is
now reduced to 210,1,00/ ; and under the arrangements cam-
pleted with tie Eas'ern Counties Railway Company, is practi-
cally made a Five per Cent. Stock in perpetuity, with the pro-
bability of an increased return in future years beyond that rate.
An agreement has been concluded with the Eastern Csuntes
Railway, rand has received the sanction of their Shareholders at
a General Meeting, for Leasing this Line of Railway to this
Company, at a rent of 10,5001. per annum, fur three years, and
t 5,400/. 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
Will never be less than per cent., while there is great proba-
bility of the annual return being considerably more. The con-
tractors have also been required to engage to pay out of the
capital 5 per cent. interest on all moneys received by the Corn-
Pany, unfit the rent from the Eastern Counties Company shall
become payable.
The estimate covers the construction of a single line to the
Water-side at Harwich, and the stations, and land, bridges,
Mad culverts for a double line, and sufficient accommodation,
by an extensive jetty, for the traffic to and from the Railway
and the sea ; and the Engineer has provided Contractors, with
responsib'e sureties, who have undertaken for this sum of
210,000 i. to execute the whole of theso works, purchase all
the land, and pay the Parliamentary, and preliminary, and
office expenses, engineering, surveying, and conveyancing, and
Eve per cent. on the calls paid during the construction of the
line as before-mentioned, and- bear every contingency, so that
to excess or expenditure can possibly fall upon the Proprietors.
The time occupied in travelling from London to Harwich
by Railway will be three hours only ; and consi•lei log the ex-
cellence of that port, its accessibility in all weathers, and the,
ample depth of water for the largest steamers at all states of the
tide, there can be ne doubt that, while Harwich will regain all
its former high standing, as the Mail Packet Station of the
east Coast of England, the new convenience of a Railway, and
rapid transport to the metropolis, must attract a vast number
of passengers from the North of Europe generally, but more
particularly from Hambergh, Holland, Belgium, and also from
the east of Scotland. A large quantity of fish, fruit, provisions,
light goods, and general merchandise may also be expected to
pass along this line and yield a considerable revenue. A large
proportion of the shares have been subscribed for, and applica-
tions for the remaining shares must be made forthwith to the
Provisional Committee of the Harwich Railway Company, at
the Eastern Counties Railway Office, Shoreditch ; to Mr.
Duncan, 72, Lombard-street; Messrs. Joshua Hutchinson and
Sons, Lnthbury ; or to Messrs. Higlifield and Withers,
Liverpool.
The Deposits will be called for, to be paid on or before the
31st of January, and the calls will be made as the works pro-
ceed, which are to be completed within twelve months from
the Contractors being in possession of the land.
Arrangements will be made by the Act of Parliament for
the cessation of all but a nominal expense for supporting the
establishment of. this Company after the lease to the Eastera
Counties Railway Company has commenced, and probably by
the appointment of that Company as the Trustee for the Hai,
Wish Shareholders, in which case the annual expenditure con-
nected with the office department of the Harwich Railway will
not exceed two hundred pounds per annum.

MONIALS in favour of
pARR'S LIFE PILLS, which are acknow-
ledged to be all that are required to conquer disease, and
Prolorig life.

From Mr. J. SMITH, Glasgow.
GENTLEATEN,—I have been troubled for years with a dreadful
PalPitation of the heart, accompanied with great nervousness and
.tkbilitY, for which I have tried everything you could mention, all
purposo, till I heard of PAR R's wenderfnl LIFE PILLS,
"4 a friend of mine desired me t r try them, which I did. I bought
them of Mr. Nelson, and I am happy to say that a box of them has
completely restored me.
"If this will do anything to help your efforts you can make
lase of it. " I remain yours, respectfully,
" JAMES SMITH."
Front Mr. HENRY B 4 RBER, Druggist, Knutsford.
" To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pits.
" GENTLEMEN,-I forward you a case below, which Mr. T. CASH
Maims to have published ; he speaks wonderfully of PARR'S
PILLS, and kels assured they have been the means of saving his
lift We have also additional testimonials from respectable farmers
le this neighbourhood.
" DEAR have been for the last two years dreadfully
Afflicted with a cough and pain in the chest, so that I could scarcely
tut the least portion of food without causing great pain in my
then, and shortness of breath, with a violent cough, not being able
lie down for nine months; having had the advice of several
medical men, without deriving any benefit, I was advised by a
friend to try PARR'S PILLS, but having tried so many patent
Medicines, •I thought I might as well throw my money away. I
began to think nothing would cure me ; I was fast wasting away
'With a violent pain in my head; at last my friend got me a box
trent your &bop, and advised me to try them, so I tried them, being
so strongly recommended, according to the direction, and before I
had taken one box, I found se much relief that I tried another,
and am now happy te say I am as well as ever I was in my life, and
shall always have a few dotes by me, for they are wonderful.
(Signed) " THOMAS CASH.
•` Witness—John Thorpe."

" Mr. PARRY has been afflicted with sore eyes for twelve
Years, and has tried everything he could hear of without the least
neuefit, but since taking two boxes of PARR'S PILLS, his eyes
are quite well, and have been for some time.
" Mrs. SMITH has been troubled with a pain in her head for
*limy years, has had the most respectable medical advice, without
receiving any benefit ; is quite recovered since she has taken three
bores of PARR'S PILLS, which are worth a sovereign a box to
Persons troubled with a sick hea4l-ache ; I shall always have a
IniPPly by me.
" These cases I have selected from a number of others, and can
relY upon them as being correct. I shall feel great pleasure in
siring every information to any person who may favour me with
4%11. " I am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,

UENTLEtestiv,—The benefit I have received by the use of OLD
PILLS, induces me, out of gratitude to the Proprietors,
424 4 wish to be of use to the whole world, to add another testi-
ial to the numbers you have already received. For the last
- Years I have been labouring under a complication of disorders
n
- 1 head and stomach. I think I may venture to say I have not
ad an hour's cessation of pain during the time. My sense of
111 fling was entirely gone, and the most agreeable perfume or the
14-
it intolerant stench were equally indifferent tome. I have had
the - advice of several surgeons and medical men, both in this
to,
"1 and others, but without the least benefit, and I
ha*
diapaired of ever again regaining my health, in
fiat thy life was becoming burdensome to me, until
Ict Innately heard of the many cures which your valuable Pills
,441 reffected. I purchased a box of Mr. Woodward, druggist, and
attet e I had taken the whole I was completely cured, and have
)4141' experienced the slightest symptoms of its return. I have
iectMlMended them, and shall do so, as I feel I cannot do sufficient
°C the benefit I have received.-1 am, Gentlemen, your obliged
