Tne proposed line from Waterford to Kilkenny is 32 English
miles in length. The total cost, including outlay for stock,
stations, ac., will not exceed 8,0001. per mile.

It will be perceived that the line is intended to meet the pro.
jected branch of the Great Western Railway from Gloucester to
Fishguarci (the South Wale■ line), and that it must necessarily
command a great portion of the trafSc Worn the West of England ;
and, if extended to Dublin, will constitute Waterford one of the
most important ports of the empire.

Powe^ will be taken fur the further extension of the line to the
Irish Metropolis, in the event of such a measure being deemed ad.
visable.

The pm t of Waterford can be entered at all times of the tide by
vessels of 1,000 tons. The export trade of Waterford and the
traflie between Waterford and Kilkenny are considerable, and are en
the increase.

The exports of Waterford in 1835. According to the Report of
he Irish Railway Commissioners, amounted to the value of

1,821,2451., and the imports to 1.,274,1541. At present the ex.
ports are represented by the local authorities to mend two
millions, and the imports one million and a half. •
At least one.third of the exports from Waterford may be pre.
turned to pass through the county of Kilkenny, and this traffic
would necessarily receive a great stimulus by the construction of
a line of rapid communication with the interior of the country.
The probability of a remunerative return from a railway opening
up a communication between Waterford and Kilkenny, with a view
to its future extension to Dublin, will be enhanced by the adoption
of the econom cal principle upon which it has been determined to
construct the line, which insures a reduction of at least 30 per
cent. on the primary investment.

The necessary plans and surveys, with all other preliminary ar.
rangements, will be ready, so as to apply to Parliament for a Bill to
incorporate the Company early in the ensuing session ; and inte-
rest at the rate of 4/. per cent. will be alloK•ed to subscribers oa
their deposits, wail the railway is completed.

Subjoined is a statement of the present through traffic and pre.
bable profit:—
Coaeh traffic, four journeys a day, 40 passengers at fis. 3,740
Car traffic, four journeys, six days in the week, 100
passengers, at 21. 6d..•...... 3,900
Merchandise, 100,000 tons,cattle included, at ss. per ton 25,000

£32,640

Assuming an increase of only double the present traffic, we have
65,280/. ; showing a divisible profit, after deducting 50 per cent.
for working expenses, of 32,6401., or nearly 12 per cent. on the
capital.
No Subscriber will be responsible for more than the amount of
his Share.
