by the general facilities presented for its construction,
vourable character of the country through which

tie, together with the coal, mineral, and agricultural distriets to be
traversed, are considered, it is obvious that the construction of this
line will insure to the Company a most lucrative return for the
capital employed ; and that, as an investment, it toast rank among
the most advantageous of modern iniagrtakings, whilst it will im-
part advantages of the highest importe, both to knghuid and the
principality. The immense droves of Welsh and Shropshire cattle
will at once be conveyed into the important cattle markets of Derby-
shire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Lineolnshire, Noriblk,
and Suffolk, whilst, in return, the agricultural produce of those coun-
ties will be sent into the densely-populated localities of Birmingham
and Wolverhampton, and the Staffordshire, Shropshire, and Welsh
ironworks.

The several projected railways passing from Worceetetshire and
Herefordshire in the direction of Chester and Liverpool, will be im-
portant tributaries to the revenue of this line, which will be atilt
further augmented by its joining the Grand Junotion, near to
Spread Eagle Station, at a short distance from Wolverhampton.
The facilities which will be of to visitors to Matloek, and
the rest of the picturesque scenery of Derbyshire, and. of Ifiorth
Wales and Aberystwlth, as well as to travellers via Holyhead to
Ireland, will still further conduce to the general utility of the project.
