COMPANY.
llle Directors of the Eastern Counties Railway Company, observ-
ing that in the advertisements of the Chelmsford and Bury Railway
Company it is stated that their particular line is supported and sanc-
tioned by the Eastern Counties Railway Company, have to announce
that no such support or sanction has been given.
The Company's engineer, Mr. Robert Stephenson, has been In-
structed to examine the entire district, and to advise upon the lines
of railway to be constructed through it, vhich the Eastern Counties
Railway Company may sanction as most conducive to public inte-
rests. By order of the Board,

The public are informed that the Directors hare come to the
resolution of making an EXTENSIVE REDUCTION in their FARES.

and the Eastern Counties, thus :—To the south of Mansfield, the
Mansfield and Plnxton and Erewash Valley Railways, will develope
the Portland, Pinxton, Swanwick, Riddings, Butterley, Shipley,
Efistwood, and other collieries—to the West, the Clay Cross branch
of the Nottingham and Mansfield Railway opens the Skeghy, Tib-
shelf, Clay Cross, and Wingerworth Pits—and fl'om the North, the
Staveley, Duckmanton, Sutton Scarsdale, and other extensive col-
lieries, as well as iron works, will he brought into the market ; thus

PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT.

RAILWAY FROM MACCLESFIELD,
passing close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttometer,
to the Trcnt Valley Railway north of Lichfield.

Particulars will be given inafitinre advertisement ; but it may now
be stated, that the fares will be from London to Dover--lst class, 155.,
2tl class 10s., 3,1 class 65., and intermediate fares in proportion.
There will also be issued Day Tickets between London and the dif-
ferent stations, and Season and Annual Tickets for the.whole lino.

3d. The nearest point of the coal field to Lincolnshire being thus
opened, besides the great boon of supplying that county and the
neighbouring districts with coals at a greatly reduced price a large
export trade from the great shipping port of Boston may be reason-
ably expected ; and in these respects no railway existing or projected
holds out the prospects of similar advantages
4th. While no other line approaches the coal field at so near a
point to the eastward, and at the same time passes direct through
the centre of an agricultural county so rich and unoccupied, it also
opens quarries of the most valuable building stone, lime, &c.—Mans-
field and Bolsover Moor —and thus brings into direct communication
those valuable minerals of which the whole district east and south-
east of Newark is destitute.
Surveys of the whole line are in a most forward state, and will be
shown to any party interested, and wishing for information. A Map
of the lino will be published shortly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance and co-operation of
those companies with whose lines of railway they communicate, and
as the Boston, Newark and Sheffield line must prove a valuable
feeder to them all, they hope that this appeal will not be deemed
altogether unworthy of attention.
Holders of Newark and Sheffield and Extension Shares, will be
entitled to an oqual number of shares in the new Company, in
change for their scrip certificates or bankers' receipts, which must
be sent immediately to the secretary, at Mansfield, accompanied by
a form of application, which will be supplied by post to those who
have not already received it.
They, as well as landowners and others locally interested on the
line, will receive a preference in the allotment of the additional
shares.
Parties who do not apply for an exchange of shares, before. the first
day of September next, will forfeit their right to them, and be held
as having withdrawn from. the undertaking.
In order to comply with the standing orders of Parliament, which
no,* require a deposit of ten per cent. instead of five par cent. as
fortherly, a further payment must be made of 11. 2s. 6d. on each
share exchanged for an old ; and on the additional shares a deposit
of 21. 12s. CAL each.
creT ifto emat ft
Power will be taken In the A o a 0.. or.4U
per cent. per annum on the deposits, as well as on all future calls,
from the date of each payment till the opening of the whole line,
or until a dividend be declared, and the liability of subscribers will
be limited by the Act of Parliament to the amount of their respective
shares.
The Shares, and all payments made thereon, will be forfeited,
without notice, should the holder thereof not sign the subscribers'
agreement and parliamentary contract as soon as required.
References will be required from all new applicants for shares,
who are not known to some members of the Committee or to the
solicitors. . _

The Committee of Management having received a most satisfactory
Report from their Engineers with regard to the Branch Line, which
they project from their Main Line near Clitlieroe to Burnley, give
notice that they fully purpose to include the above Branch in their

22, Parliament-street, London, August 12, 1845.

BIRMINGHAAI, WOLVERHAMPTON, and
STOUR VALLEY RAILWAY.
The course which it is proposed that this line of railway shall take
is along or near the banks of the Birmingham Canal to Wolver-
hampton, with a branch to Dudley.
It is further proposed to carry a line from the above-mentioned
line, near Smethwick, by way of Halesowen, Cradley, Stourbridge,
and Kidderminster, down the whole length of the Valley of the Stour,
to its junction with the Severn.
These lines of railway will afford to the vast population, and
varied produce and manufactures of the districts through which they
will pass, the cheapest and shortest communication with the ports of
London, Hull, and Liverpool, as well as with the large and important
districts occupied by the Midland Railways . and the North of
England.
The line from Birmingham to Wolverhampton will form a portion
of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway, with the existing Com-
pany for the formation of which satisfactory arrangements have
been made.
The object of the rartics proposing this scheme of railways is to
present to the most important manufacturing interest of South Staf-
fordshire and Worcestershire the greatest facility for the conveyance
of their goods to and along the various trunk railways of the king-
dom at the least possible cost, and no effort will be spared to secure
so desirable a result.
The Birm!ngham Canal Company and the London and Birmingham
and Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway Companies have con-
curred to furnish the means of effecting this undertaking ; and the
Stourbridge, Dudley, and Birmingham Railway Company, with their
strong local influence, have united their interests to those of this
Company.
Apptcation will be made to Parliament in the next session for an
Act to effect the above purposes.
Information may be obtained by applying at the office of the Canal
Company in Birmingham, or to
Messrs. INGLEBY, WRAGGE, and COPE,
and Solicitors,
Birmingham.

This railway is proposed to commence at Cambridge, to proceed
in a direct line to Northampton, and take its course, by Fenny
Compton, Stratford-upon-Avon, and Alcester, to Worcester.
By its junction with the Northern and Eastern Railway at Cam-
bridge, the London and York Railway near St. Neots, the Leicester end
Bedford or South Midland and London and Birmingham Railways,
near Northampton, the Oxford and Rugby and the proposed Oxford and
Birmingham, or Warwickshire and London Railways, at Fenny
Compton, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway at Stratford-upon-
Avon, the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton near Wor-
cester, and the proposed lines into Wales from that city ; this rail-
way will connect Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, and the impor-
tant towns of Yarmouth, Harwich, Norwich, Ipswich, Bury St. Ed-
mund's, Lynn, and Cambridge, with the towns and counties of Bed-
ford, Northampton, Rugby, Leicester, Nottingham, Derby, Banbury,
Oxford, Southampton, Coventry, Leamington, Warwick, Birming-
ham, Worcester, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Tewkesbury, Kiddermin-
ster, Wolverhampton, Liverpool, Manchester, Bristol, Hereford,
Somerset, South Wales, and the South of Ireland. In short this
railway will complete the chain of communication from the east to
all parts of England. It will also be the most direct route from
London to Warwick, Leamington, Worcester, Hereford, Kiddermin-
ster, Stourbridge, Brotnsgrove, Droitwich, and Wales. Connecting
a very populous district entirely destitute of railway accommodation ;
opening, too, a direct communication between extensive manufactur-
ing, mineral, and agricultural districts, and the best and largest coal
fields in the kingdom, thereby considerably reducing the present high
price. of coals, particularly in the eastern counties. This line must not
only be of great public and local advantage, but also insure traffic
and passengers, and goods amply remunerative as an investment.
The survey made proves the line to be easy of construction, and
I free from engineering difficulties. •
The asual power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow
interest at 4/. per cent. per annum on the deposits, as well as on all
future calls, from the date of the passing of the Act till the opening
of the railway.
Applications for prospectuses and shares may be made to the Soli-
citors, or to the following Sharebrokers, viz. :—Messrs. P. W. Tho-
mas and Son, 50, Threadneedle-street, London ; Forsyth and Prit-
.hard, or T. Crewdson, Liverpool ; Johnstone and Bradley, or S. W.

way Companies :—" The Chester and Holyhead," " The Londonderry

The proposed railway, which is intended to afford a direct and un-
interrupted comunication between Dublin and Enniskillen, by the
way of and embracing the important towns of Trim, Navan, Kells,
Cavan, and Beltunet, was recommended by the Railway Commis-
sioners, in che year 1838, as the great arterial line for the North-
western Districts of Ireland.
A company having been formed during the last year (called " The
Great North Western Railway Company,") for the purpose of bring-
ing the merits of the line before the public, the necessary surveys,
plans, and sections were made, and afterwards deposited, in order to
apply for a Bill during the present session of Parliament ; but the
Board of Trade having reported in favour of the Kells branch of the
Belfast Junction Line, which to a certain extent, was a competing
project, the Provisional Directors abandoned the intention of apply-
ing for a Bill this session, and preferred to bring the merits of the
line before the Select Commit tee, to whom the rival schemes were
referred as competing projects.
After a searching investigation, which lasted for several days, and
the examination of Lord Farnham, General Sir John Burgoyne,
Chairman of the Board of Public Works in Ireland, and several other
witnesses, from whose evidence the merits of the proposed line, in an
engineering and remunerative point of view, were filly substantiated,
the select Committee rejected' that portion of the competing line
comprised in the branch to Kells, on the ground that it might inter-
fere with the more important inland line then under consideration,
which is the line projected by this Company.
The course of proceedieg adopted by the Committees of the House
of Commons, upon Railway Bills, has given to this Company an ad-
vantage which has not hitherto been afforded to the public: for the
promoters, notwithstanding they did not present any Bill to the House,
were heard as projectors of a line of Railway—the making of which
might influence the Committee in their judgment upon the Bill re-
ferred to them. This arrangement gave the promoters !the oppor-
tunity of establishing their case upon evidence ; and the statement
now made must be regarded as the result of testimony, and not of

Railway.

The Provisional Directors of the Essex and Suffolk Railway have
the pleasure of communicating to the Shareholders that the Parlia-
mentary Committee have rejected the Preambles of all the Bills
which could be considered as coming into competition with the Essex
and Suffolk project, and have given an opinion strongly favourable
to the views of tills Company.
The Provisional Directors wishing to avoid the annoyances, delays,
and expenses of a vexatious Parliamentary 'contest, and hoping that
the common interests of the localities through which this projected
railway would pass, might be conciliated and advanced by a friendly
understanding with the Provisional Committee of the Bury and
Chelmsford Railway, were most desirous of bringing about an amal-
gamation with the promoters of that line, and eagerly availed them-
selves of the opportunity that was afforded them of amicable discus-
sion, for the purpose of uniting the objects of the two Companies on
mutually satisfactory terms.
Five Members of the Provisional Direction of the Essex and Suf-
folk Company, namely:—Dr. Bowring, M.P., Messrs. Allen, Fitz-
william, Sykes, and Tatham were nominated on behalf of this Com-
pany. Mr. Halifax (Chairman), Sir Hyde Parker, Bart., and Mr.
Courtold, were appointed by the Bury and Chelmsford Committee, to
confer with the Essex and Suffolk Deputation on the question of
amalgamation. They met the Deputation from the Essex and
Suffolk, and the principle and general basis of such amalgamation
were agreed on. The respective Deputations referred the matter
back to their several Committees, and both Committees concurred in
sanctioning the general understanding. The Chelmsford and Bury
Committee then added Sir John Tyrrel, Bart., and Mr. Greenwood to
the former Deputation, and the five were appointed to settle the de-
tails necessary to give effect to the general arrangement. Resolu-
tions were passed unanimously, as regarded the Deputation from the
Essex and Suffolk Company, and by a majority of the Deputation
from the Bury and Chelmsford; making, in the united Committee, a
majority of eight to two in favour of the amalgamation, and of the
resolutions dependent thereon.
In the progress of these discussions, and greatly to the surprise of
the Essex and Suffolk Deputation, a resolution was communicated to
them (not signed by tile Chairman of the Bury and Chelmsford Com-
pany), stating that the Deputation appointed to conduct the ne-
gotiation with the Essex and Suffolk Deputation, were "'discharged,"
and 12 resolutions, many of which were wholly incompatible with
the arrangements agreed upon, were sent by " the Provisional Com-
mittee of the Chelmsford and Bury Railway," to the Provisional
Directors of the Essex and Suffolk.
On these resolutions the Essex and Suffolk Directors desire to
make no further observation than this, that as men of honour, the
Chairman of the Bury and Chelmsford (Mr. Hallifax), Sir John
Tyrell, Bart., M.P., and Sir Hyde Parker, Bart., and several others,
felt it their duty to withdraw, and they have withdrawn themselves,
from the Bury and Chelmsford direction.
These gentlemen continue in friendly co-operation with the Essex
and Suffolk direction, while, in addition to the loss of their valuable
services, the Bury cad Chelmsford Committee are deprived of their
distinguished engineer, Mr. Robert Stephenson, and it is understood
Messrs. White and Borrett have retired from the joint solicitorship of
that line.
To the equitable and honourable spirit in which the negotiations
were conducted by the retiring majority of the Chelmsford and Bury
deputation, the Essex and Suffolk desire to bear unequivocal testi-
mony, while on the part of their own deputation, they wish to state,
that with every disposition to meet the Bury and Chelmsford Direc-
tors in the most conciliatory spirit, there existed among themselves,
cordial unanimity of purpose, and they can only express their
regret, that a small minority should have thwarted the friendly and
judicious intentions of a large majority.
l'he objects of the Essex and Suffolk Provisional Directors having
'teen thus disappointed, by a repudiation of the acts of a majority of
the Bury and Chelmsford deputation, a certain_ number of Shares re-
main to be disposed of, which it was intended to place in the hands of
the united Committee.
These Shares are now offered to the public, but a preference will
be given to the original subscribers to the Essex and Suffolk line.
Shareholders in the Norwich and Brandon and Eastern Counties are
requested to mention the fact in their application.
There can be no doubt that a railway providing for the iniport Int
districts between Chelmsford and Thetford, will obtain the sanction
,f Parliament, in the coming session ; and the Provisional Directors
cannot but anticipate the favourable decision of the Legislature.
Negotiations are in progress with the Norwich and Brandon and
Eastern Counties Railway Companies, and there is every reason to
hope, that arrangements will he entered into, satisfactory to the
Shareholders, and accommodating the populous localities through
which this line is intended to pass. Careful surveys are making of
the whole line, and the confidence of tile Provisional Directors of the
success of the undertaking is unabated.
Applications for Shares may be made to the Secretary, at the Offices
of the Company, 24, Moorgate-street ; or to the Solicitors and Local
Agents ; and to Messrs. Hichens and Harrison, 15, Threadneedle-
street, London ; J. Jameson, Leeds ; J. Greaves, Liverpool ; and
Messrs. Cardwell and Sons, Manchester ; where detailed prospectuses
and plans of the line may be obtained.
By order,
BOJART ALAPLETOF.T, Secretary.
.

mere conjecture.
The Provisional Directors established, to the satisfaction of the
Ccmrnittee, the superiority of this Line over the proposed Branch to
Kells, and also the absence of engineering difficulties, as well as the
existence of a very extensive traffic ; and they have arranged to pro-
ceed to Parliament in the ensuing session.
They confidently expect that arrangements will be entered into
with the Directors of The Dublin and Mullingar, The Londonderry
and Coleraine, Londonderry and Enniskillen, and Newry and Enis-
killen Railway Companies, whereby these lines will become im-
portant feeders to the proposed railway, while the traffic of Bally-
shannon, Lough Erne, and all the North Western Districts, will be
brought into rapid and direct communication with Dublin, by reason
of the town of Belturbet having been selected as a central point for
the concentration of railway and steam-boat traffic. The landed pro-
prietors along the line are unanimously in favour of the scheme, and
county meetings, presidod over by the High Sheriffs, have been held
in Cavan and Meath, at which resolutions of approval were adopted.
Without going into the detail of the evidence given before the
Select Committee of the House of Commons, to whom the Great
North Western Project and Belfast Tunction Bill were referred, it is
considered advisable shortly to state some of the facts which were
established by evidence; and after making allowance for the altered
circumstances under which the scheme, is now placed before the
public, they may be considered as correct data, whereby the merits
of the proposed railway may be estimated.
It was proved by Lord Farnham, Sir J. Burgoyne, and others, that
the making of the railway is an object of primary importance, and
nearly identical with that recommended by the Railway
Commissioners in 1638, as one of the great arterial lines bear
calculated to afford general accommodation, and to develop
the resources of the country. That it would afford a much
shorter and more direct communication between the north-west of
Ireland and Dublin than any railway in progess, or in contemplation,
and was of so much importance, that, even supposing the Kells
branch of the Dublin and Belfast Junction line had been authorised
by the Legislature, the direct line to Enniskillen would have been,
nevertheless, constructed.
It was also proved that the cattle markets, held twice weekly in
Dublin, were greatly frequented by the large graziers and farmers of
the county of Meath, who, in the absence of sufficiently remunerative
prices in that market, were in the habit of exporting their cattle to
Liverpool,-an advantage which they could not obtain from any other
port in Ireland.
That the passenger traffic between Enniskillen and Dublin is
greater than between Enniskillen and Belfast, Newry, and Dun-
dalk together; and that throughout Ireland passenger traffic has
converged towards Dublin, affording as it does the shortest and most
frequent communication with England ; this traffic must be iin-
mensely increased, when the Chester and Holyhead and Londonderry
and Enniskillen Railways are constructed, as this line will then be-
come the great medium of commnnication between the counties
north and north-west of Dublin, and the metropolis of England.
There are upwards of 300 fairs held annually in the Immediate
vicinity of the line of railway ; about thirty corn and flour-mills,
producing annually more than 35,000 tons of flour and meal.
The inhabitants of the country are mostly of a superior class, and
likely to avail themselves of the advantages of railway communica-
tion : from these sources an ample revenue may be anticipated.
The public conveyances are very numerous, affording evidence of
an existing passenger traffic not exceeded in the whole of Ireland.
There are no less than sixteen mail and stage coaches, proceeding,
each, upon an average, forty-six miles along the line of railway be-
tween Dublin and Cavan. The traffic between Cavan and Ennis-
killen, at the present time (also very considerable), will very greatly
increase by the direct means of communication which this line will
afford to the passengers, by the Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway
proceeding to Dublin and the South. The public and private cars, by
which it is well known so great a portion of the passenger traffic
is carried on through Ireland, have not been taken into consideration.
The Turnpike Trust Returns show, that between Dublin and
Navan, a distance of thirty nines, 63,439 horned cattle, and 65,105
sheep and pigs annually travel along the public roads.
From the data already in the hands of the Provisional Committee,
taken from the estimate of the Railway Commission in 1838, and ob-
tained during the past year from careful observation of the actual
traffic now existing on the lines of road, it may fairly be assumed,
that an income of eight or nine per cent. will be derived from the
railway, after making a liberal allowance for working expenses.
With respect to the engineering, the line presents no difficulty
whatever, with the exception of about five miles beyond Cavan, the
country is uniformly level. There will be but one tunnel, of les,
than 300 yards in length. The gradients arc very easy, and the
earthwork light.

This undertakingf originally called the Newark and Sheffield Rail-
way, was, with its` extensions, projected "with a view of affording
a direct outlet from the greatest corn and cattle .producing districts
of England to the dense manufacturing population of Yorkshire and
Lancashire ; and for the coals, lime, building-stone, &c. &c., of the
Chesterfield, Dronfleld, Mansfield, and Plnxton coal-fields; of which
valuable minerals the whole eastern district is entirely destitute."
The Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, carrying out fully
these most important objects, commences at the seaport of Boston,
passes by Sleaford, touching there the head of the Sleaford Canal,
and through the centre of the rich agricultural county of Lincoln, to
Hougham Mill, where it crosses and connects itself with the London
and York Railway, by which it gives a direct route to Newark and
Grantham, thence passing over the river Trent at Farndon, near
Newark, it forms a junction with the Nottingham and Lincoln line,
by which it opens a direct communication with Nottingham and
Derby ; it then proceeds through the towns of Southwell, Farnsfield,
and Mansfield, where it is joined by the existing railway from Pinx-
ton, and thence, by way of BOsover, direct to the terminus at Shef-
field of the Manchester and Sheffield Railway.
In the only petition by which the Newark and Sheffield line was
opposed last session, it was alleged "that the railway is not called
for by any public necessity ;" but the overwhelming evidence of
traffic then produced hat compelled those who were parties to that
allegation and opposition to admit publicly " that the district ought
to be supplied with railway. communication."
The objection of the Duke of Devenshire that It Interfered impro-
perly with his park at Hardwick-hall has been entirely .bviated, as
the line passes far to the north of that mansion.
The only opposition to the railway being thus happily removed, RI
competing line having been sanctioned last session, and this Com-
pany alone being in occupation of the ground, it is the hope, and will
he the endeavour, of the Directors tcgo to Parliament with an un-
opposed Bill.
The gradients will be materially improved, and it being admitted
on all hands that railway accommodation is greatly wanted by the
whole district, It is confidently anticipated that Parliament will
sanction the construction of a line by that Company, who, possess-
ing strong local support, have, at great expense, surveyed the coun-
try, developed the traffic, and proved, to the satisfaction of even
their opponents, that such an undertaking will be most beneficial to
the public, and remunerative to the shareholders.
No direct canal or other
theseconveynce, beyond the ordinary
turnpike roads, provides transit for mmodities of the district.
and the agricultural produce of Lincolnshire,
The bulk of the cattle,
and the large quantities of flour and malt, made at and near the
towns of Newark, Mansfield, &c., find their *ay at present to the
markets in the west, chiefly by circuitous water conveyance, and
the cost and delay attending their transmission are enormous. The
extensive cotton manufactories of Matisfie!d, Pleasley, &c., also
suffer from thesame evils, In these respects the saving will be very
great to all, by the proposed railway communication. The farmer,
the miller, and the maltster, by the removal of all uncertainty in the
transit of their goods, can at at any time avail themselves promptly
of the most favourable Markets. In the conveyance of cattle, the
benefits of a railway are shared by both dealers and consumers.
To the town of Newark the saving in the price of coals will be 40
per cent., and the flour and theft sent thence to Lancashire, &c.,
will be conveyed to market in a -few hours, Instead of seven or tea
days as at present, and at less than half the cost.
A friendly company has undertaken to make a railway from
Mansfield to Nottingham, with a branch to Clay Cross, and the
avidity with which tile shares in that project have been taken up,
chiefly by parties resident in the locality, proves the great probable
utility of the line, which proposes to run into a common station at
Mansfield.
A glance at the map will show the following important advantages
from these proposed combinations:-
Ist. A direct communication, shorter than any other existing
or projected, between Boston, the great agricultural parts of Lin-
colnshire and Nottinghamshire, and the populous manufacturing
towns of the west—Sheffield, Manchester, Huddersfield, &c., &c., and
also between these places and the town of Nottingham.
2d. The great coal fields of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire
will be meat thoroughly laid open to the markets of Lincolnshire

The object of this undertaking is to supply railway communication
to the towns and districts lying between the London and Birming-
ham, and the Great Western Railways, giving them the best means
of access to the metropolis, and connecting them also with the
Northern and Eastern lines of railway, as well as with Oxford and
the South.
The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham
Railway, near Harrow, and passing to the north of Uxbridge, will
proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to
Missenden and Wendover, and thence to
ass Aylesnearbury ; fin. whieh
place it will extend to Buckingham, and ping Wlow, and
approaching Brackley, will terminate by a Junction with the proposed
Warwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury.
In addition to the line above described, it is intended also to con-
struct a Railway from the central station of the London and Bir-
mingha Railwaat Wolverton to Buckingham, and thence through
Bicester to Oxford; and in connexion with the line here proposed,
the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make
a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton.
The proposed Luckinghatn and London and Birmingham Railway
Company (for the construction of a line from Wolverton to Bicester)
is amalgamated with this Company.
• Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert
Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering diftl.tulty
of importance presents itself.
Ma undertaking has already received the sanction and support of
a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of
land through or near whose property it is intended to pass.
It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation,
and under the direction and superintendence of the London and
Birmingham Railway Company ; tinder a lease, in perpetuity, at
four per cent. per aunum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange-
ment as to the surplus profits.
It is intended to offer the shares in such proportion as the amount
of capital will allow of, to the holders of shares in the London,
Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the
approbation of the Committee of Management, with the exception
of such as may be required fur parties having local interests.
