This railway connects the important town of Barnet with the
London and Birmingham and the Great Western Railways at Weis-
den, the Northern and Eastern and the Eastern Counties Railways
at Tottenham, and the proposed Direct London and Manchester and
the London and York Railways.
The line in its course unites the town of Barnet with Whet-
stone, Totteridge, Finchley, Hendon, llornsey, Highgate, Tottenham,
&c., couneeting those places with the various railways named, and
all those south of the River Thames, securing a very large passenger
traffic, conveying heavy goods and merchandise from the City and
Docks, also coal, Mel, and other commodities, to Barnet and the
other places, on and in the neighbourhood of the line ; whereby the de-
lay and excessive cost of conveyance through Loudon will be avoided.
From these and other sources of profit an ample return to the share-
holders will necessarily arise.
Prospectuses will in a few days be published, with the names of the
Provisional Committee. In the meantime, applications for shares;
and communications from persons desirous of promoting the objects
of the Company, may be addressed to the Secretary, at the Provi-
sional Offices of the Company, 59, Newman-street, Oxford-street ; to

The Committee of Management beg to inform those parties who
have applied for Shares in this undertaking that the allotment is now
completed, and that the letters of allotment will be issued on Saturday
next, the 6th instant. They regret that, in consequence of the
numerous applications, more delay has taken place than was at first
anticipated. All applicants not receiving letters of allotment must
not consider that their applications were overlooked, but that the
great demand for Shares over and above the number to be allotted
necessarily prevented their being granted.
The Committee are happy to be able to inform their Subscribers
that nearly the whole of the landowners along the line have promised
their appport, and that they have also secured the co-operation of
many influential local gentlemen.
These advantages, coupled with the intrinsic merits of the under-,
taking, lead the Committee confidently to anticipate a successful
result to their application to Parliament next session. The surveys
era being proceeded with, and all the requisite measures are being
taken for a due compliance with the standing orders.
