THE RAILWAY COURIER
AND STOCK-EXCHANGE PRICE CURRENT.
A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER, PUBLISHED EVERY WEDNES-
DAY MORNING.

Among the numerous railway publications lately produced, there
is not one which seems to meet the necessities of the UNIVERSAL
INTEREST created by the present extraordinary movement in the
extension of railway locomotion. They are all exclusively class
papers, and convey no other information than that which immedi-
ately concerns, individually or collectively, those who are wholly
absorbed in railway affairs. But railways are now a catholic, not
a class interest ; they have become the daily concern of an entire
people; scarcely a man of business, of whatever class or wherever
located, but has been called npon to take part in the great railway
undertakings of the day ;—not practically or professionally—not to
the exclusion or suspension of his ordinary pursuits ; but in con-
nexion with that which constitutes his locum standi in the great
social scale of the country.
The present Railway Papers are not adapted to the imperative
wants of the public at large ; they are instituted to subserve the ob-
jects of a class, not the interests of a community. The public, in the
n
most comprehensive sense of the term, will henceforth have a 'pe na
nent interest in RAILWAY INFORMATION ; and, to combine that-
information, rendered fully and accurately, with the GENRAL
NEWS ff THE DAY—in which they have also an interest—is the
design of THE RAILWAY COURIER AND STOCK-EXCHAXGE
PRICE-CURRENT.

temporaries even In the supply of Railway Intelligence : it win con-

A WEEKLY REVIEW OF EVERY NEW PROJECT brought
before the public will form the leading subject of editorial notice,
and
will be accompanied by occasional comment on the progress of the
great work of Railway extension, as well as on its general influence
and opperation upon co-existing interests, while the miscellaneous
of
columns of the Paper will always afford ample space for reports
Public Meetings and every other kind of Railway Intelligence.
The RAILWAY COURIER, and STOCK EXCHANGE PRICE
CURRENT will be printed on a broad sheet, similar in size and form
to the double " Morning Herald" newspaper; and, in addition to Its
important features of Railway News already noticed, it will be to the
weekly what the " Herald" is to the daily reader—AN AMPLE
GENERAL NEWSPAPER.

The comprehensive character of THE COURIER offers espec!al
advantages for the publication of all Railway Advertisements ; cir-
culating, as it must, in every channel wherein Railway Information
is sought. The Paper may be had (Price 6d.) of the newsmen in
town or country, or at the office of publication, 45, Gracechurch-
street, London; where Advertisements, to secure the advantage of
both editions—should be sent on on before Monday Evening.
