Railway
Company having completed the whole of their arrange-
ments, and having been compelled to refuse at least three-fourths of
the applications for shares in the line, have had their attention
forcibly and repeatedly called to the necessity of a direct communi-
cation between Salisbury and Swindon, the station on the Great
Western Railway, by which the moat direct and remunerative
connexion will be formed between Southampton and Man-
chester. After most mature deliberation, they have resolved
to recommend to their shareholders and the public the imme-
diate carrying out of a railway to Effect this object, which will be most
desirable, as a completion to their own line, and highly hsloymadvantage-
ous in a pecuniary sense and on public grounds. They have directed
all the necessary surveys to be made, so as to apply to Parliament in
'
the ensuing session, at the same time as the Wilts, INt
