The establishment of the above railway will effect two great
and important objects :—first, the supply or the metropolis and its
vicinity with coal fully twenty per cent. cheaper than by the pre-
sent mode of transit: secondly, by the exclusion of passenger
traffic, to diminish the risk of accidents, which objects can only be
attained by constructing a railway for the express purpose of carry-
ing coals and merchandise exclusively.
The expenses of the London and Birmingham Railway for 1844
(set forth in the prospectus of this Company), prove that coal
may be brought the entire distance from the Northern Col •
lieries to London at one-half the cost of coal conveyed by ship, and
yet leave a profit of ten per cent. upon a capital of 5,000,0001., and
this is also satisfactorily ascertained, by calculations more directly
referring to the Coal Railway itself.
In addition to the through traffic, accommodation will bo afforded
to the intermediate districts for the conveyance of coals and goods,
which will materially increase the revenue of the Company. It is,
moreover, clearly to be shown that the supply of coal to be ob-
tained by means of the Coal Railway, ill neighbourhoods where
the price has hitherto been so great, will effect a reduction in some
places of one-half, and in others two thirds of the former rates.
It is proposed to raise the required capital in 200,000 shares of
251. each ; deposit 21. 12s. 6d. per share, the subsequent calls to be
made in the usual way.
The customary clauses will be inserted in the Act, limiting the
liability of the shareholders to the amount of their respective
shares.
Interest, at the rate of 4 per cent per annum will be allowed
on all calla between the passing of the Act and the opening of the
railway,
The Committee of Management have the satisfaction to state,
that owing to the measures that have been taken, the surveys, &t.,
are in a very for ward state, and that the necessary documents will
be deposlted in accordance with the standing orders of Parliament,
with °FsoPreicritsu:.efs
and application made for the Bill iti the approaching session.

By this Company it is,
proposed to supply railway accommoda-
tion, through an independent channel, to all the principal towns in
Buckinghlunskire, and to in‘my In the other counties through which
the projected line is to run, hitherto destitute of this now indispen-
sable mode of transit.

The project known by the name of " The Buckinghamshire Rail-
way and Oxford and Wolverton Junction" is announced in their pro-
spectus as being under the direction and superintendence of the Lon-
don and Birmingham Railway Company, as their lessees in perpetuity,
receiving fair per cent. on the outlay, with a conditional arrange-
ment as to the surplus profit.
From this arrangement it must be obvious to every one that the
monopoly of the London and Birmingham Company, which it was a
principal object to destroy, is more strongly secured than before, and
the profits which would accrue to an indepen:Y.ent line, after payment
of the 4/. per cent. interest, is virtually thrown into their hands.
In addition to this, the arrangement to make use of the termini of
the London and Birmingham Company, together with a considerable
portion of their line, red:ices the Buckinghamshire Railway in fact to
a mere extension of the oiler company, and confers on the latter the
means of absolutely and entirely controlling the traffic, and conse-
quently the profits, of the projected line ; so that the reservation as
to the surplus profits in truth amounts to nothing.
The adoption of the projected Buckinghamshire Railway by the
London and Birmingham Company proves their consciousness of the
necess.ty of a railway- communication through the country proposed
to be traversed; and to prevent a continuance of their monopoly,
to secure both to share holders and to parties locally intero.led
the bandits of an independent line, the present Company has been
formed, and has met with the strenuous support of many landed pro-
prietors in the counties through which it will pass, who have hitherto
withheld their co-operation from the Buckinghamshire Railway
Company for the reasons enumerated.

The liuo will proceed through or near to Uxbridge, by the Valley
of Chalfont, to Amersham and Wenduver, and thence to Aylesbury,
by Winslow, to Buckingham. It will take a course from thence
through Brockley and Banbury, by Leamington and Warwick, to
Birmingham, having the advantage of being the shortest route
hitherto proposed between Birmingham and London.
Applications for shares, in the annexed form, may be made to the
Secretary, at the temporary Offices of the Company, or to Messrs.
Edward Ellis and Co., Sharebrokers, 53, Threadneedle-street.
