The proposed Railway will complete the chain of communication
between London and the south and west of Ireland, by route of the
Great Western and South Wales Railways to Fishguard, or St.
David's Head, from thence to the harbour of Wexford (being the
narrowest part of St. George's Channel), where the projected Rail-

way, uniting the important ports of We;ford, New Reis, and Water.

fora, will commence, and passing through the towns of Taghmon,
Mullinaval, and Carrick-on-Suir, will there join the Waterford,
Limerick, and Cork Railways, which have on this portion of their
line tue towns of Clonmel, Cahir, Cashel, Tipperary, and Kilmallock ;
and leaving them at Charleville, the Wexford, Waterford, and
Valentia Railway will proceed through the towns of Dromcolliher,
Newmarket, Ca,tle Island, and Killarney, with a short branch to
the important port and county town of Tralee.—it will then pass
onward in the vicinity of Castlemain, Milltown, Killorglin, and Caller-
civeen, and terminate at the spacious harbour of Valentia.
By the same speed now maintained on the " Great Western Rail-
way," the journey from London to Fishguard will be performed in
five hours—the passage thence to Wexford in four—to Dublin in two
—thus completing the distance to Dublin in eleven hours, and accele-
rating the English mails, to the interior, thirty hours earlier than by
the present arrangements.

It will be readily seen by an inspection of the annexed map, that
the whole line, when completed, will greatly facilitate the inter-
course between Great Britain, Ireland, and America, as, by means of
it, Valentia Harbour, a port of great importance, being brought
within thirteen hours of London, must become a packet station,
where vessels would avoid the delays of adverse tides and winds in
the Channel, and save at least 900 miles of the most difficult part of
the voyage to America, which would then be accomplished with ease
and regularity (via Haiifax) in seven days from Valentia, and eight
days from London.

The proposed railway will also afford a new and convenient open-
ing for the transport and sale of the produce of the country through
which it passes, by a safe and expeditious means of transit to every
part of the kingdom, and the fact that a great portion of the traffic
between London, the West of England, Wales, South and West of
Ireland, sad ultitnively of America, must exclusive') flow into this
line, as the great highway between these countries, will be at once
sufficient to chew that the increase of traffic will greatly exceed the
ordinary rate of computation, and that the return upon the capital
invested will be very ample.
This 'hie will piss through or near twenty towns, having on each
side a fertile country, containing a population of two millions and up-
wards, to the whole of which it will afford railway accommodation :
—it will intersect the inexhaustible coal-flehls of Duliallow (com-
puted by the Railway Commissioners to be the most extensive in the
United Kingdom)—the valuable limestone and marble quarries at
Dunkit, Pilltown, Mltchelstown, and Killarney,—and the lead and
Copper mines near .he latter (all on the Bite). The slate quarries at
Valentia, the finest In the world, have been selected for supplying the
rooting to the new Houses of Parliament, and being extensively
worked by an English company, will add to the traffic of the line.
In addition to the income derived from the mineral traffic, a very
large source of revenue may be anticipated, from the line considerably
cheapening the transit of the staple articles of the Irish export trade,
which are raised in large quantities in the districts close to the,course
of this Railvay, the daily produce of the fisheries along the West coast,
Nymph Bank, Kilmore, and Wexford, and the immense quantity of
live stock, corn, butter, and other agricultural produce, immediately
available and requiring transmission,—added to which, the numerous
and extensive malting houses and flour mills along the line will cost-
tribute largely to the traffic, and prove equally beneficial to the
country and the Shareholders.

When it is considered that this railway will form an important por-
tion of a great national project, which must ere long be accomplished,
—that of establishing a direct chain of communication between Eng-
land and America, through South Wales and the South of Ireland,—it
may reasonably be assumed, that, independently of its present su-
perior local advantages and public utility, it will, in a prospective
Point of view, secure to itself the largest trade, and prove one of
the most remunerative lines as yet proposed in Ireland.
A portion of the shares are reserved for parties locally interested.
and the remainder will be allotted to those giving unexceptionable
references, and no application will be attended to unless accom-
panied by a London reference. Powers will be taken in the Act of
Parliament to limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount
of their shares, and to allow interest at 41. per cent. per annum on
the deposits.

The object of this line is to connect the important ports of Galway
and Belfast, and to transect the midland counties of Ireland.
Commencing at Galway the line will pass through or near the fol-
lowing important places :—Tuam, Castleblaney, Mount Talbot, Ath-
league, Roscommon, Lanesborough, Longford, Newton Forbes, Elphin,
Carrick-on-Shannon, Bcturbet, and Clones, where it will form a junc-
tion with the Newry and Enniskillen Railway, thus forming a direct
communication between the ports of Galway and Belfast. It will at
the same time afford, in connexion with other lines, accommodation
to the counties of Limerick, Clare. Galway, Mayo, Roscommon,
Longford, Leitrim, Fermanagh, Cav,n, Monaghan, Londonderry,
Antrim, Armagh, and Down, and passing by or near to the Arigna
iron mines, and the great coal and limestone fields in Connaught,
it will essentially promote the agricultural and commercial in-
terests of those places.

It will also complete an important chain of railway communication
between the port of Galway in the west (one of the most capacious
in the United Kingdom, and which must, ere long, become a packet
station for steamers to and from America, &c.), and the port of Bel-
fast in fhe northeast, where there are constantly steam packets pro-
ceeding to Glasgow and the ports on the western coast of Scotland,
and which will be brought Into cheap and rapid communication with
ealh other.

It is to be observed that whilst almost every other line of railway
hitlwrto projected diverges from Dublin,/no line is as yet proposed
which intersects the inland counties. By crossing, as it will, other
main lines, it will be a feeder to them, and it will, in return, receive
from them a considerable amount of traffic in passengers and mer-
chandise.

A preliminary survey of the district is being made; the line will
pass for nearly the entire length through the table land of Ireland, se
that the gradients arc particularly favourable; there will, moreover, ,
be no tunnelling, nor any engineering work of difficulty. From
the estimates which have been made it is confidently expected that a
return of 10 per cent. on the capital will be realised. The act of in-
corporation will limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of
shares which they may take.

This important line of railway will commence near the Midland
Countia Station at Nottingham, whence, after crossing the navi-
gable River Trent, the line will proceed through or near Bridgeford,
Ifolme, Ratcliffe, and the intermediate villages, Bingham, lot-
tesford, Whatton, Elton, the rich and fertile Vale of Belyoir,
to the town of Grantham, thence passing through or near
Folkingham and Bourn, or one of them, to Spalding, Long Sutton,
Sutton-bridge, and King's Lynn,and there joining the intended Lynn and
East Dereham Railway, will form the meet direct line of connexion bc-
.

tween the Eastern Counties, and the great and populous manufac-
turing districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire, by means
of the projected Grand Union Extension line to Amber Gate, acid
other lines north of Nottingham ; and by means of the line to
Yarmouth will also form a communication between the Eastern and
Western coasts of the Kingdom.

The Southern parts ofLrncolnshire, and the North Eastern parts of
Cambridgeshire, will be afforded a direct facility of intercourse with
some of the best markets in England.
The neighbourhood of Nottingham being the most Eastern part
cif the Great Midland Coal Field, this Line will afford a supply of
Coals, as well as being the medium of transit of Derbyshire Lime
and Stone to the .tgriculturists of South Lincolnshire, at a conside-
rably cheaper rate than by any other existing or projected Line ; in
short, the vast miacral wealth of the Midland District, will be ren-
lered available to the whole of the great agricultural country East
of Nottingham.

Surveys are now in progress, and the nature of the country is
known to offer no serious engineering difficulties, and a great portion
of the Line will be nearly a dead level. The consideration of an ex-

tension of the Line from Spalding or Long Sutton to `Nisbeach, will
also form a portion of the scheme.

The Report of the Board of Trade on the Lines through Lincoln.
,hire, says :
" The total cost attending th transmission of a quarter of wheal

trom the interior of Lincolnshire, by sea, from the port of Boston to
London, including freight, insurance, lighterage, commission, and
other charges, is stated to amtunt to very near Bs. The charge by
Railway per quarter (allowing five quarters to the ton, at the charge
of 1M d. per ton, per mile, at which the estimate of the Cambridge
and Lincoln Railway is taken) would not exceed 25., and the re-
maining charges are calculated not to exceed 2s. 6d., thus showing
a benefit to the corn growers and to the public of 3s. 6d. per quarter,
occasioned by the saving of the sums now paid for insurance,
delay, loss in weight, depreciation of quality, lighterage, Bfc."
" A still more important advantage to the Farmer is afforded by
the opportunity given by railway communications of availing himself
:'romptly of the most favourable market. It frequently happens that
owing to the delay and difficulty of transmission, the .Farmer is com-
pelled to sell his wheat at the nearest provincial market at a price
considerably below the average rate, and to lose the advantage of a
temporary rise."

"Whatever tends to equalise prices and to prevent excessive fluc-
tuations cannot but be considered as a benefit both to the producer
and the consumer. We are satisfied that much may be done in this
way by an economical and well arranged system of railway com-
munication."

The same remarks apply to the whole of the great manufacturing
districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire.
The great quantity of land, amounting to 100,000 acres, about
to be redeemed from the sea by a company, with Sir John Rennie, as
Engineer for the promoters, and Mr. Retitle, for the Corporation of
Lynn, must ultimately prove of great advantage to this under-
taking. And, it it is conceived, that the Grand Union Railway must
meet with the cordial co-operation of the Midland Railways, as an
immense traffic will be brought along those lines en route to Birming-
ham, the Potteries, and the whole of the manufacturing districts of
Staffordshire. The traffic upon the intended Nottingham and Mans-
field, Sheffield and Newark, Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland Junc-
tion, and the Sheffield and Manchester lines, must also derive a great
increase of traffic from this line of railway. The Cambridge and
Lincoln Railway must also be greatly benefited.
Power is intended to be reserved in the Act to allow 4 per cent. in-
terest upon deposits and calls, until completion of the line.
