The Provisional Committee of the North London Junction Rai1,57.3'
,57.3' Company have great satisfaction in informing their subscribers
tha negotiations are now pending between the Provisional Commit-
le, of this Company and the Directors of the Railways north of the
Thames of ouch a character as to assure them that the City terminus
of this CAnpany will form the Grand Terminus of all the City traftle
worth of London.

To effort this Important object, an area of IA acres of grouxd (the
seertbern boundary of which is within 500 yards of the Bask of
Eliglui:l) has been most carefully surveyed and valued, and the re-
-11, of the architect and engineer is of so favourable a character as to
have induced the Provisional Committee to determine on purchasing
the entire site, and it has, therefore, been resolved by them to in-
clease the capital of this Company to 1,300,0001.
The Provisional Committee consider it of paramount importance
tostecure within the limits of their City terminus, the amplest and
most, complete accommodation for the traffic of each of the railway
companies who may co-operate with them, an object which will be
effected by opening the very extensive and valuable space of ground
Alluded to, within the centre of the City of London.
In conjunction with this enlarged plan, it is intended to embrace
That of a branch line to the present station of the Eastern Counties
Railway in iihOredlteh, which will effect an entire junction between
the eastern and western parts of the metropolis ; and at the same
Mae afford a direct communication between the whole of the rail-
ways, which reach London tothe north of the Thames, and give
full development to each ot' their schemes bere sting for them a
common centre within the heart of tlheot metropolis.
