PROSPECTUS.

This important line of railway will commence at a point on the
31anchester and Bolton Railway, between Bolton and Farnworth,
running thence in a direct line through Worsley and Patricroft to a
point on the Manchester South Junction and Altrincham Railway,
with which it will form a junction, to Cheadle, where it will unite
with the Macclesfield branch of the Manchester and Birmingham
Railway, by which ineaPs a direct railway communication will be
opened with Macclesfield and the various lines of railway proposed
lo terminate there.
The great advantages to be derived from a communication be-
twee,,, Bolton and Altrincham, and via Cheadle, with Macclesfield,
will at once be seen on reference to the map, not only as a feeder
aid cliani:el communication between existing and projected lines, but
also as supplying the link wanting in the chain of direct communica-
tion betWeee Bolton, Blackburn, and a very large extent of the po-
pulous manufacturing districts and towns of the central part of the
county of Lancaster, with the Staffordshire Potteries, the great iron
districts, EinninghaM, and the metropolis, and consequently the in-
termediate places in the lines of the various existing and projected
railways between Manchester, Macclesfield, and the whole of the
tiouthern portion of the kingdom.
An Important feature in this undertaking is, that whilst it will,
by gift ins of existing and projected lines, open up to the immense
agricultaral and manufacturing population of Warwickshire, Staf-
ferdshire, and Cheshire, a direct communication with Southport,
Blackpool, and the other watering-places situate on the coast of Lan-
cashire, it will likewise form a continuation of the proposed direct
lines from Lonion (via Macclesfield) to Edinburgh and Glasgow,
either by Fleetwood-upon-Wyse, or by the Lancaster and
ittarllsle lines.
The saving of distance between. Macclesfield and Bolton being
important, whilst ti:e great, but unavoidable delays which must be
in Nteurred in passing airough the different termini in Manchester,
will be obviated.
Another important feature in this enterprise is, that it will not ma-
terially affect any existing or contemplated line, and that it will be
able, by uniting Itself with them, and with other projected lines, and
lines now in the course of formation, to increase their mutual traffic
to a considerable extent, both in passengers anti goods ; and being the
menus of establishing a principle of reciprocity, cannot in Any manner
injure any existing interests.
To the town of Bolton, and its neighbouring extensive coal fields,
It is obvious this line will secure the most important advantages, by
its conneion with existing lines, and others projected which will
centre there. It need hardly be added, that with all these advan-
tages, a most important traffic for passengers and goods may be relied
upon, independent of which, as the line itself presents no engineering
difiLtulties, or other obstacles of importance, and will be executed at
an expense far below the ordinary average, the most ample security
10 the capitalist is offered.
The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the share-
brAders beyond the deposit now paid until the Act of Parliament is
obtained, and power will be reserved in the Act to allow 41. per cent.
lnteitist on all calls.
A certain number of shares will be reserved for the landowners
and °tilt's; having loch interests in the line, and who are friendly to
the interests ‘7l' this company.
Applications c.-tr shares and p rospectuses may be made in the
reehjoined form o the solicitors, of to the following share-brokers :
