ACTING ENGINEED.--Charles Edward Bernard, Esq.
SECRETARY, pro tem.—W. D. Logic, Esq.
The vales of the Ogwr or Ogmore Fawr, and of the Garw, lying
near and nearly parallel to each other, abound in minerals of the
most valuable description, but owing to their secluded situation, and,
above all, to the want of a cheap and easy communication with the
sea, have teen hither to wholly neglected.
In order to supply this deficiency, and to open to the various
markets the vast resources which these 'valleys afford, the above
connecting lines of railway have been projected, and by them com-
munication with the port of Cardiff, Port Talbot, Porthcawl, and
every other port in the Bristol Channel, will be effected.
The length of the main line of this railway will be about IS miles,
and the branches up the three valleys will be 1G miles in addition,
making in the whole about 34 miles.
The branches will commence from Blaenogwr, in the vale of Ogwr
Fawr, from Blaenogwr, in that of the Gawr, from Blaenogwr, in the
vale of the Ogwr, and will concentrate at Bryn Cethin ; from
thence the main line formed by this junction will pass by Llanharren,
and join-the South Wales Railway near to the port of Cardiff.
The Whole district of country through which the lines will pass has
already been surveyed by highly competent parties, and affords gra-
dients and levels of the most favourable kind. No heavy cutting,
expensive bridges, or embankments, will be required, so that the
cheap execution of the proposed lines is perfectly certain. There is
on the spot abundance of materials for the proper execution of the
works. The project is supported by powerful local interests, and all
the landowners who have yet been consulted have given their sanc-
tion and approval.
The rising town of Bridgend and its neighbourhood must necessa-
rily be greatly benefited by the completion of this undertaking, and a
cheap and ready market be afforded for all their manufacturing and
agricultural produce. It is intended to form a junction with the
South Wales Railway near that town.
The vales present sites for ironworks; and the establishment of
colicrics on a large scale will immediately succeed the formation of
the road. Twenty-five miles of this railway will pass through pro-
perty abounding in coal, ironstone, blackband, and limestone, all
which products have not at present any means of transit to any mar-
ket whatever.

It Is confidently anticipated that the investments in this under-
taking will give a handsome return to the shareholders.
No subscriber will be answerable beyond the amount of his deposit
until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his sub-
scription.
Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained the affairs of this
Company shall be under the control of the Managing Committee, to
whom power is given to allot the shares, and to apply the funds of
the Company in payment of all the expenses incurred in its forma-
tion, and in the preparation of the plans and sections to be submitted
to Parliament.
Power will be applied for In the Act to raise any additional capi-
tal, to extend or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines,
or enter Into any arrangements, by amalgamation or otherwise,
with any °tiff r Company ; and power is hereby given to the regis-
tered promoters to nominate the Managing Committee of the
Company.
In the arotment of shares a preference will be given to landowners
on the line, and to other parties locally interested.
Prospectuses and maps may be bad of, and applications for shares
may be addressed, in the farm annexed, to W. 13. James, Esq. soli-
citor, 5, ila•inghall-street, London, at the temporary Offices of the
Company; and at those of the undermentioned brokers; but no ap-
plications for shares will receive the attention of the Committee
unless accompanied by a reference to one or more of the Provisional
Committee or solicitor:—
