market it meets with a ready sale at 30 per cent. higher than any of
the host- north country. Bertley'e ; and notwithetanding 1114 hfgll
price, so highly is it esteemed, that the present importatien iundanta
to nearly 100,00 e tons per annum. This coal fbr the meat part is ;
brourrbt from n distance of 24 miles. and shipped-dt Cara:if, from
whence freights to London have averaged from 10e. to Ils. ger toe
during the past year; but so uncertain is the supply to thci uetrepe•
lie, owing to the scarcity of ships on tko Welsh cu4et, AnC, the long
and precarious navigation i'ound the Land's End, that many whe
anxious to adopt their engine grates for its use, are deterred from
the too great uncertainty which exists against obtaining a regular
and constadk supply ; these difficulties will be entirely superseded by
the proposed railway, and these it is intended to Join, with the great
additioual advantage mid impetus to increased use and consumption,'
that it may be delivered to the consumer at from 2s. to 3s. per toe
less price than at present. Under such circumstances, it will not

appear unreasonable to those unacquainted with the trade, to expect
that the consumption in the metropolis alone will be inereased four-
fold, whilst a new-found trade will be opened out with Chepstow,
Gloucester, Cheltenham, Witney, Oxford, and the numerous inter-
mediate towns to London, where steam coal is used.

It has been considered mere judicious to form a separate Company
for the Extension line from Chepstow to the Taff Yale, than to alter
the Chepstow, Forest of Dean, and Gloucester Junction Railway
Company at present, but powers are proposed to be taken for uniting
the two Companies hereafter, with the assent of their respectire
boards of Direction.

Prettrence will be given to those locally interested, aid to the
holders of Shares in the Chepstow, Forest of Dean, and Gloucester
Junction Railway.
A reference to the map will show the importance of this line as
forming a direct line of railway communication between the great
mineral distriet of Monmouthshire and Glarnorganshire, with the
heart of the Kingdom and London.
It may confidently be stated that in connexion with the Chep-
stow, Forest of Dean, and Gloucester Junction Railway, there is
not a line of railroad in the Kingdom which offers greater advan-
tages to the Shareholders than the pr,sent. Prevision will be made
in the Act of Parliament which will be applied for in the next ses-
Won to limit the liability of the Shareholder to the amount Sc his
shares, and to allow four per cent. on the calls.
Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of this
Company shall be under the control of the Managing Dlreetors, to -
whom power is given to allot the Shares, and to apply the feeds Of
the Company in payment of all the expenses incurred in its fbrina-
Lion, and in the preparation of the Plans and Sections submitted ti -
Parliament.

Power will be applied tar in the Act (and is the eaatiare is
hereby given to the Managing Directors as above), to raise any addl•
tional capital, to extend or abandon any branch of the line, to make
branch lines, or enter into any arrangements, by amalgamation or
otherwise, with any other company or oompanies, and also to nomi-
nate the first Directors of the Company.
