,The Provisional Directors refer with pleasure to the proceedings at
the Meeting of the Inhabitants of Southampton on Monday last, the
Mayor presiding, at which the proposed Railway received a very
cordial and unanimous approval.
The Directors are extremely unwilling to deprive of the opportu-
nity of embarking in the undertaking any parties having local or
other claims to consideration, but the pressure for Shares has been
so overwhelming that to keep the iists open would only occasion
extended disappointment.
They, therefore, give notice that no applications for shares can
be received after Saturday next, and that letters for shares posted
subsequently Must be rejected.
