The Committee of Direction beg to announce, that having instructed
their Engineer to estimate for the working stock, as well as for the
cost of way of their projected extensions to Sleaford and Grantham,
• hey find that the requisite capital will amount to 375,0001., and that
they will thus have 5,000 Shares to dispose of, after giving all the
Scripholders one new or extension Share for every two original
Shares, as at first intimated. Of these 5,000 Shares they have also
resolved to allot a number, not exceeding 2,000, among the Land-
owners and other influential parties locally interested in the exten-
sions ; and to sell the remainder at their discretion for the benefit of
the Company.
Scripholders who are desirous to obtain the new Shares to which
they are entitled, are requested to leave their name and address with
their Scrip Certificates, on any day previous to the 3d of May next,
at the Committee Rooms, No. 31, l'arliament-street, Westminster,
with the Secretary, who will give a receipt for the same; and on the
following day the Scrip Certificates will be returned with a letter of
allotment for the new Shares.
All parties who do Not apply, as above, for new Shares, will for-
feit their right to them; and all Shares thus forfeited will be sold
under the direction of the Committee, for the benefit of the Company.
Landholders and others locally interested ,in the extensions, who
wish to hold Shares, are requested to send their applications to Mau-
rice P. Moore, Esq., Sleaford, for the consideration of the Local
Committee, and no application will be received alter Wednesday, the
30th April current.
The Secretary will attend promptly to any communication by
letter, but all letters, with their enclosures, will be at the risk of the
parties who send them, both in the transmission to and from the
Committee Rooms; and it is recommended that all letters, &c., be
sent by post and registered.

This undertaking connecting itself at Chesterfield with the ex-
isting and projected Midland Railways, and passing through Mans-
field, Southwell, Newark-on-Trent, and thence to t-leaford and Ros-
ton, will form a continuous and direct communication between the
agricultural and producing districts of Nottinghamshire and the
South-Eastern parts of the kingdom, as far as the sea coast on the
one hand, and the large consuming towns and districts of West
Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cheshire, and the Port of Liverpool on
the other.
A careful examination of the country through which this Line will
pass, by Engineers of acknowledged eminence, enables the pro-
moters to state, that it may be constructed with fatality, and that its
character is such as to justify a confidence that it must prove highly
remunerative to the Proprietary, taking into consideration the great
amount of traffic which must necessarily pass along it, whether as
regards passengers, merchandise, and agricultural produce, or mi-
nerals, inasmuch as the district is not provided with any means of
transit beyond the ordinary turnpike roads. •
This Line, intended to communicate with the existing Mansfield
and Pinxton Railway at Mansfield, will form the.nearest and most di-
rect route that can be made, between the agricultural districts to the
east and south-east of Newark, and the great central coal-fields of
Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, and thus enable the inhabitants of
those extensive districts to supply themselves with coals of every
quality at considerably less than two-thirds of the present price.
The whole country, north, south, and east, will, by this Railway,
and the others with which it will communicate, be brought within
easy reach of the well-known quarries of building stone with which
the district of Mansfield and Mansfield Woodhouse abounds: as well
as with the lime prodnced in that neighbourhood, so celebrated for
building and other purpoies.
A deposit of 1/. 10s. per Share must be paid on the allotment of
Shares, and the liability of Subscribers will be Dint ed by the Act
of Parliament to the amount of their respective Shares.
Power will be taken in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 4/.
per cent. per annum on the deposits, as well as on all fliture calls,
from the date of each payment till the opening of the whole line, or
until a dividend be declared.
The Shares, and all payments made thereon, will be forfeited,
without notice, should the holders thereof not sign the Subscriber's
Agreement, and Parliamentary Contract, as soon as required
to do so.
References will be required from all applicants for Shares who
are not known to some Members of the Committee, or the Solicitors.

This project, whether viewed as a means of private investment, or
as a great public undertaking, presents advantages seldom equalled.
Forming a junction at Stourport with the London, Worcester, and
South Staffordshire Railway, the proposed Railway will pass up the
valley of the Severn, and through, or in the immediate neighbour-
hood of, Bewdley, Kidderminster, Bridgnorth, Much Wenlock,
Madeley, Iron-bridge, Coal Brook Dale, to Shrewsbury, and thence
near Market Drayton, Audlem, and Nantwich, to Crewe, where it
will terminate by a junction with the Manchester and Birmingham,
and Grand Junction Railways.
Besides giving the above exceedingly populous and thriving places
the benefit of a direct communication with each other, and railway
accommodation to a district now entirely destitute of it, the proposed
railway will also establish the shortest route from the North of
England,
Chesternglaii (throughdAtau.che
erLiverollreland, Holyhead, North Wales,
and Shrewsbury), to Worcester, Cheltenham,
Gloucester, South Wales, Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Falmouth, and the
south-western counties, and moreover will form the high-road into
the centre of Wales from the northern and midland counties.
Thus, the manufactures and minerals of the extensive and rapidly
the Valley of the Severn, Herefordshire, and the centre of
increasing iron works, and collieries of Shropshire, and the salt works
of Cheshire, as well as the immense agricultural produce from those
reach the markets and ports of Lancashire, Worcester-
shire, willcounties,'Gloucestershire, Devonshire, and Cornwall, by • a rapid and
cidtap esis
trpoannssiidt.ered that the present traffic between the various towns
on the line of the proposed railway will secure a profitable return
upon the capital ; but when the increase which will arise from the
completion of the railway, h-traffic
and the througile consequent thereon
will prove one of the most desirable investments in the kingdom.
