The Directors of the Wilts, Somerset, and Southampton Junction
Railway Company having completed the whole of their arrange-
ments, and having been compelled to refuse at least three-fourths of
the applications for shares in the line, have had their attention
forcibly and repeatedly called to the necessity of a direct communi-
cation between Salisbury and Swindon, the station on the Great
Western Railway, by which the most direct and remunerative
connexion will be formed between Southampton and Man-
chester. After most mature deliberation, they have resolved
aetyths th e same be made,
as the Wilts, Somerset, and. so as to apply to Parliament in
to recommend to their shareholders and the public the imme-
diate carrying out of a railway to effect this object, which will be most
desirable, as a completion to their own line, and highly advantage-
oustahlle teihnnesauniepncegecsussenasiry pecuniary s e and on public grounds. They have directed
Southampton Junction Railway, with a view to the ultimate =al-
gation of both lines under one management.
Besides forming a direct communication with the great manfactur-
ing towns in the north, the Salisbury and Swindon Extension will
make a complete line of railway between Southampton, Salisbury,
and all parts of North and South Wales.
In the allotment of shares, preference will be given to the holders
