The object of the promoters of this Company is to form a direct
line of railway, from Bristol and Bath to Dover ; and thus, in effect.
unite, connect, or reciprocate with, all the existing and projected
lines of railway in the south and south. west and west of England, as
well also as form a complete communication with Ireland and all
the western and Welsh railways, and most of those in the northern
and great manufacturing districts, by which passengers and goods
to and from Folkestone and Dover, France and Belgium, may
be conveyed without the necessity of passing through the me.
tropolis.

the main line to be
leas than 100 miles, throughout which the strongest encouragement
and support have been manifested towards this railway by the landed
proprietors, many of whom have determined to invest capital in the
undertaking ; and the engineer's report precludes any appreher,.
slon of engineering difficulties the publication, however, of the ex-
actness of the route is necessarily delayed for a few days, in con-
sequence of some important negotiations now pending with ano-
ther Company. The great public utility and commercial advan-
tages of railway communication between the important places and
ports which it is now contemplated to unite must be at once ap.
preciated by reference to a map of the country.
The usual power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to
allow interest, at four per cent. per annum, on the amount of deposit
and calls from the passing of the A,t until the completion of the
line, and the liabity of the shareholders will be limited to the e.asount
of their subscription
