THE ITALIAN and AUSTRIAN RAILWAY
COMPANY.

The Directors have the satisfaction to inform the Proprietors that
they have skcceeded in obtaining from His Royal Highness the grand
Duke of Tuscany, in preference to twenty-two competitors, a grant
fox sixty years, of a railway from Florence to Pestoja, on terms highly
advantageous to the Company. This line presents no engineering
difficulty, and passes through a district densely populated, and rich in
mineral and agricultural productions, and will be connected with the
railway already in operation between Leghorn and Pisa, by means of
the line now forming from Pisa to Florence. The capital will consist
of 8,000,000 of Tuscan livres, equal to about 265,0001. sterling, one-
third of which has been already subscribed for in Tuscany, and the
Directors have secured the remaining two-thirds, which will be dis-
tributed, so soon as the necessary documents have been perfected in
Italy, to such holders of the Italian and Austrian Railway Company's
shares tts shall have complied with the terms of the advertisement,
by which a call was made of 21. per share, payable on the 21st July
instant. Under the original prospectus the Directors were authorised
to take every necessary step to obtain Governtkent grants for the
railway from Verona to Ancona, and to coalesce or snake beneficial
arrangements with any companies proposing to construct lines of
railway in connexion with the Italian and Austrian Railway Com-
pany or its branches, and the deputation who proceeded to Italy
having found that they could, with great advantage to the Share-
holders, enter upon other railway undertakings in the Italian and
Austrian States, besides the line between Ancona and Verona, deter-
mined upon doing so, and upoa giving to the Shareholders the option
of joining these undertakings. The Directors, therefore, tendered for
the valuable grant they have now obtained for the railway from
Florence to Pestoja, and also have entered upon several other nego-
tiations, which, through the aid of the wealthy and influential
parties with whom they are connected at Rome, Bologna, and other
places In Italy, they feel confident will be brought to a successnil ter-
mination. The benefits resulting from these negotiations will. as
they arise, be rateably apportioned to those Proprietors who shall
pay such calls as shall be made from time to time by the Directors
for carrying cut fully the objects in contemplation. tots
