REPORT.

_ .
The Directors have the gratification to report to the Shareholders
that the state of, the affairs of the Company is, in every respect;
most satisfactory.

Owing to the small number of shares allotted to any applicant, and
the care exercised in selcction, the deposit money has been paid upon
the entire number of shares.

A deputation of the Directors, consisting of the Chairman, the
Deputy-Chairman, and Mr. Pickersgill, accompanied by Mr. E.
Birch, the engineer, and M. Burrell, the solicitor, have just re-
turned from traversing the line, the course of which they declare to
have been so judiciously selected, as, to use the language of the en-
gineers, "to avoid all engineering difficulties," while it embraces the
whole of the important mineral works with which the district
abounds. The engineering works on the whole length of 28 miles are
exceedingly easy.

The line (which has but one tunnel) traverses a country OP such
picturesque and unrivalled beauty as to have determined the Direc-
tors to convert, what they expected to have been almost exclusively
a mineral railway, into one of the most attractive passenger-lines in
the kingdom, by extending it five miles into the far-famed Vale of
Llangollen.

By this extension, and the liberal adoption of the system of
weekly excursion, and day return tickets, the inhabitants of the
densely-populated towns of Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham,
Huddersfield, Leeds, &c., will, together with those of Birkenhead and
Chester, and their localities, be en.abled to enjoy the romantic
scenery throughout the line, and tile Vale of Llangollen at its
terminc.s.
The
~fkatent of the goods traffic which may be expected from the
coal, it r, flal.Q, and other works along the line, can scarcely be ea-
timate,tit although some idea may be formed of it from the vastneks
of the w'orks, and the quantity of metal now annually shipped from
the banks of the river Dee, for which the railway will be so improved
a mode of conveyance, that there can be no doubt their production
will be multiplied ; the working of stone quarries, and of mountain
limestone, herefound, but now almost dormant, will also be induced
by this facility of transit. The traffic table is being taken, and the.
utmost confidence is felt in the result.
The extension of the line to the Vale of Llangollen will render it
necessary to add 100,0001.10 the capital of the Company; and it will
be at the option of every Shareholder to subscribe for one additional
share in respect of every five shares he may at present hold in the
undertaking. _ _ _

The Directors propose, at the same time, to avail themselves of
the favourable opportunity thus afforded of increasing the amount. 9f
deposit-money on the shares from 11. Is. Gd. to 2/. 12s. 6d. per share,
in order to satisfy the requirements of the recent Standing Orders of
both Houses of Parliament.

The importance of the execution of the Parliamentary deeds by
responsible parties makes it necessary that the Directors should
reserve to themselves the right of returning the present depot it-
money to irresponsible holders of shares, should any such present
themselves.

It has also been determined to change the name of the Company
from its present less definite one to" The Birkenhead, Chester, Mold,
Rheabon, and Vale of Llangollen Railway Company."
The Committee of Direction beg to draw the particular attention
of the Shareholders to the above report, and to inform them that,
upon condition that they pay a first call of one pound live shillings
per share on the shares held by them in this Company, to either of
the undermentioned bankers, on or before Saturday, the 27th inst.,
in order to comply with the Standing Orders of Parliament, they will
become entitled to one additional share for every five such shares,
upon the further condition that they pay, at the same time, a deposit
of two pounds twelve shillings and sixpence per share on such addi-
tional Share or shares.

In default of such payments being made within the time.specified,
the present shares of the Shareholders in the one case, and their right
to an additional share or additional shares in the other case, will be
absolutely forfeited.

A receipt will be given by the bankers to whom the payments are
made, which will be exchanged for scrip upon the shareholders' sur-
render of the scrip they at present hold, and executing the Subscri-
bers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract, which may be signed,
immediately afterwards, at the offices of the Company, and will be
forwarded Into the country for execution early in the ensuing month.
By order of the Board,
JOHN SALT, Secretary.
