LIMERICK JUNCTION RAILWAY.

The promoters of this undertaking having obtained the support
and co-operation of the Great Southern and Western Railway Com-
pany, propose to construct a line of railway from Clonmel to Thurles,
via Cashel and Holycross, a distance of twenty-nine statute miles,
to connect the Great Southern and Western with the Waterford and
Limerick Railway, and thus establish for Clonmel a direct communi-
cation with the metropolis by a route the shortest of any yet pro-
posed.
This project now appears before the publie with this strong recom-
mendation, " That the Great Southern and Western Railway Com-
pany, being already empowered by their Act to make that part of
the line lying between Thurles and Cashel, have consented to use the
powers vested in them for the benefit of this Company."
This railroad, passing through one of the most fertile and populous
parts of Ireland, will afford accommodation t• a district containing
more than 100,000 inhabitants, and abounding hs agricultural pro-
duce;
for which Clonmel, the first inland town in Ireland, with its
extensive mills, breweries, bacon yards, and distillery, offers a cer-
tain market.

This line will also secure to the northern parts of Tipperary, and
the adjoining counties, the most expeditious conveyance to the port
of Waterford.

The extensive collieries of Slievardagh, worked by the Mining
Company of Ireland, lie contiguous, and must prove a great source
of revenue to this Company. Our engineer has been instructed to
examine and report on the best mode of connecting them with the
main line.

Calculating from the traffic tables proved before the Committees of
the House of Commons, in the cases of the Great Southern and
Western end Waterford and Limerick Railway Companies, for the
adjoining districts, the Committee look with confidence for an ample
return for the capital invested.

A-prefininerrisarreratttre-itne has-Men-made; no en4;tneerinn
difficulties present themselves ; ro tunnelling nor deep cutting will
be required ; no demesnes will be interfered with, awl It is calculated
that 10,00 a per mile will be more than sufficient to complete the
undertaking.
This is not a competing line, and has obtained the sanction and sup-
port of nearly all the landowners through whose property It is in-
tended to pass.
Powers will be taken in the Bill to lease this railway to, or con-
tract with any ether Company, so as to ensure the greatest economy
in working the line.

The Drectors have much pleasure in informing the Proprietors that
•ft coalition witk Messrs, Torlenia and Co., of Rome, who have interest
with the Bank of Rome, and the Marchese di Pizzardi, of Bologna,
has been formed, and that other arrangements highly advantageous
to the Company have been made by the Chairman and Deputation
M Italy.
It is expected that Stock applicable to the Papal and other States
in Italy will shortly have to be created, a rateable proportion of
which will be given to each Proprietor of the Italian and Austrian
Railway Company, who shall pay, on or before the 21st July next, to
credit of the Company, with their respective Bankers, a further
Instalment of 21. per share on the stock held by them in that Com-
pany ; such call is necessary to meet the demand for the deposit of
caution-money, which will be required by the respective Govern-
Ments. Parties not paying such call will be excluded from al ad-
vantages arising from the creation of new stock.
The Directors have further to announce that the direction for the
Management of the Railways formed in the Papal States will
sonsist of PRINCE ALEXANDER TORLONIA, as Chairman,
with four others appointed by the Italian interest, and six to be ap-
pointed by the Italian lind Austrian Company. Two-thirds of the
stock will be divided among the Proprietors of the Italian and Aus-
trian Company, and the remaining one-third to Messrs. Torlonia
and Co., who will supply the Bank of Rome, and Messrs. Pizzardi
and Co., of Bologna, and other influential parties in Italy.
By order of the Board, G. 11. D. LAURENCE, Secretary.
