CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY —The works
on this line, projected with a view to the improvement of
intercourse with Ireland by moans of a lino to Ireland
will, we understand, be commenced early in February,
on the sth of which month the Directors meet to let the
contracts for divisions of the line. Its route, via Holy-
head and Bangor, is that which was favourably reported
on by the Committee of the House of Commons in 1840,
as the best adapted railway communication between Lon-
don and Dublin. An agreement has been entered into
with the Government to convey the mails for five years
from the opening of the line, at the rate of 30,0001. per
annum, and for a further term of seven years at the same
sum, as a maximum. The length of the line v ill be 84
miles ; but at present Parliamentary powers have been
obtained for only 80 miles, the Company having de-
ferred to the desire of the Government that the Bangor
portion of the line, approaching the straits, together with
the passage over the straits, should stand in abeyance for
the present. It will be completed in three years from
b its commencement.—Charter Courant.
