PROSPECTUS.
This important line will commence at Brighton, and (passing
through or contiguous to the towns of Steyning, Petworth, Mid-
hurst, Petersfleld and Alresford) will Join at the Andover Road sta-
tion of the South-Western Railway, the promised Southampton
Manchester and Oxford Junction.
Au arrangement has been entered into with the latter Company,
and it is proposed by means of their projected line, that the
Brighton and Cheltenham Railway shall proceed through Munger-
ford to Swindon.
From Petersileld a short branch will be made to Chichester
where, nearly at the same point of junction, the London and Ports-
mouth direct will intersect the line In its way to Portsmouth.
From Swindon it is proposed to proceed by the Manchester and
Southampton Railway to Chelt nham. and the North of England
by the Derbyshire, Worcestershire and Staffordshire Junction, or
other existing and contemplated linca.
On reference to the map, it will be seen that the primary object
to be obtained by the formation of this line will be the immediate
connexion of the northern, western, and the whole of the manufac-
turing counties, and North and South Wales, with the southern coast
and the populous and fashionable towns of Brighton, Hastings, and
Dover.

It is unnecessary to observe on the daily increasing traffic between
Brighton and Dieppe, which the railroad from the latter place to
Rouen, and thence to Paris, must greatly augment; thus, by means
of the projected line, a direct communication with France, either
from Brighton or Dover, will be opened with the northern counties
of England.
It is obvious that with these advantages the traffic must neces-
sarily be• large, the line passing through the centre of Sussex, con-
taining a population of about 300,000, at present almost devoid of
railway accommodation.
Power will be applied for in the Act to Increase the capitala necessary, to alter the line, or to make such deviations or branches
therefrom as may be deemed necessary ; also for the purposes of amal-
