The object of this undertaking Is to form an unbroken link or
communication with all the existing railways, by which means
more particularly the Western, Southern, Eastern, South-Eastern,
and South-Western parts of the kingdom may be traversed from the
Northern Districts, without the necessity of making the metropolis
a resting-place either for passengers or goods : and thus obviating
considerable expense and great loss of thee.

The length of the main line will be 62 miles, commencing at Hert-
ford, (which has already a branch to the North-Eastern Railway),
contin lug its course by Hatfield, St. Alban's, to Watford, where it
will cross the London and Birmingham Railway, from thence to
Itickmansworth, Uxbridge, and West Drayton, where It will pass
under the Great Western Railway, proceeding by Colebrook, (having
a braneh to Windsor front the main line at Horton), cross the Thames
at Staines, to Egham, Chertsey, passing into the South Western
Railway at the Weybridge Station, approaching Cobham, Leather-
head, Dorking, and terminating at Reigate, where it will form a
junction with the South-Eastern and London and Brighton Railways.
The great distance front each other of the various termini of rail-
ways In London, has for a length of time occupied the attention of
the legislature and of the interested Companies ; but the great value
Of property has been an insuperable obstacle to effecting any improve-
ment : hence the necessity of a more direct communication from
one line to another; and after careful surveys the present plan has
been deeined the most efficient to meet every desideratum. For the
surveys thus made, and also from a great portion of the levels
already taken, there do not appear to be any engineering difficulties.
The feature of the country is agricultural ; and it will open a wide
field to reciprocal commerce, by exchanging the manufactures of the
North with the products of the South , together wills a snore accessi-
ble mode of obtaining every description of foreign merchandise at
reasonable'rates: _ _ _

In Consulting the'best statistical•authorities, and on the informa-
tion detivable from the only certain mode of obtaining the existing
and fluctuating traffic on so novel a feature as this projected railway,
a considerable" difficulty has necessarily presented itself in arriving
at a MakitnamVf profits, but it •can with certainty be announced that
*el the relourcoo of trate from the manufecttuirig diotricto, rect.

proeally with the counties through which the railway is Wendel
pass, the revenue upon the capital will yield at least 10 per cenri.n
As the project developes itself, the most cheering patroic)
manifest from influential landowners and other prciprietors de
that the formation of this line is indispensable to meet the dem
of:
and who have promised to give this project their undivided supPo
_PA
Government for a length of time have deemed it advls3ble
troops with all their materiel by railways, and the facilitie3
can he thus afforded will form a communicating medium with

Suffice it to state that coal, wool, timber, corn, bark, 10'1'5 their
every variety of product or manufacture must inevitabb' f se•

This Company originated at a Public Meeting of the of ~orviott

. _
Cornwall, convened by the High Sheriff, in pursuane'o :Soo!:
sitlen signed by the Lord Lieutenant and 1,600 ct.
Gentry, and Freeholders of the County, held at the
in Bodmin, on Thursday, the 28th August, 1845. ape',
The Meeting was held in consequence of the successimt curia, to
by the County, and rejection by Parliament, of the iire,:iyelo°,)o4l
Railway Bill, and a Bill for making a railway from Its' id
Falmouth, in continuation of the projected South Delii„reOffeS,
from Exeter to Plymouth, pursuing only a winding en" ~' the i',,o'
course along the margin of the Southern Channel, leaving oar"
area of Devonshire, Westof Exeter, and the whole of the
Cornwall,
The object oft

ndertaking accommodatiisoto providen. -to
,ati yre"
system of railway communication for the whole a t'in tVa
peninsula ; and as tile waste of capital and time involvedvo,
cuitous route by Bristol is greatly complained of, the lea(
dispensable feature of the project will be to obtain the in"otp, tote
punctual, and economical line, between London, F011n°c010.,°,!1,10,,
Penzance. It was this central line, westward, which OS yo P, t;
of the House of Lords, on the Wilts and Somerset Ba",%natiOijiel'
the present session, obliged the Great Western RailwaY of Ilh
taro'
pledge themselves not to oppose ; and which they sPea,ttry r°301051
report "as the line which the best interests of the cool' ilia
and which must eventually be carried direct to Falrnout
of tot
weste ly
r port in the Channel."
As far as Exeter' that project is already in the 11%,1 it, le
" London and SouthWestern"London, Sallsbur),

With this strong expression from the Legislature,nnd 01:0'
auspices, it 'may be considered that a continuous line "id:, leo,%teril
from London, through Salisbury, to Yeovil and Exeter, 1,4 e
coo;
thirty miles shorter than the devious course Vibe gra' to 0,0.
Railway, is already morally secured. In order, there ,°a. 11°'0,00/
plete the great national project thus suggested by ,
Lords, it remains only to extend this direct Exeter l':.zance,9,oi'
change of gauge or terminus, direct to Falmouth and rez!„.oad°",dolt
The saving hi actual distance thus effected between "e%tc1i,.,1
Falmouth, as compared with the Great Western and Olga or'io
amounts to more than fifty miles ; whilst the time f tin
avoiding the passage of the Hamoaze, to say
difficulties involved in that project, was estimated in tlie „r to
- tit
quiries before Parliament, as equal to a saving of nettling 4200,00
miles more. of VIII!, IV,
Bearing in mind, therefore, the geographical position won ii:od
