By this Company it is Pioposed to supply railway accommoda-
tion, through an independent channel, to all the principal towns in
Buckinghamshire, and to many 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 fur 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 independent line, after payment
of the 41. 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 Birmlngliam Company, together with a considerable
portion of their line, reduces the Buckinghamshire Railway in fact to
a mere extension of the older ccmpany, 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 shareholders and to parties locally interested
the benefits of an independent line, the present Company has been
formed, and has met a nth 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 line will proceed through or near to Uxbridge, by the Valley
of Chalfont, to Amersham and Wendever, 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.

Applic;itljns 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, Theadneedle-street.
