Steps were taken about three months past for the formation of this
Company, and applications were received for a large number of
Shares ; but before proceeding to an allotment, the Committee and.
the Projector deemed it advisable to have direct information from
Jamaica on subjects connected with the line—the probable cost of the
laud through which it would passthe engineering difficulties, if any
—and other matters connected with the line. They have received
this information and set it forth herewith.
The Provisional Directors have now determined to bring the Com-
pany forward, and to eitond the line as far as Annotta Bay : the
principal towns to be thus connected are.
Montego Bay with Falmouth .distance 20 Miles.
Falmouth Rio Bueno •• • • 15
- Rio ?Weal° Dry Harbour 5
Dry Barbour— St. Ann's Bay 17
St. Ann's Bay— Port Maria • • 18
Port Maria Annotta Bay .• 9

At the latter place it will join the line intended to be formed to
Kingston, and thus unite the most populous and rich districts of the
North with the South by a junction with the Jamaica Junction arid
South Midland Line, and the capital and shipping port .of Kingston,
and afford a quick awl cheap mode ' of transit for passengers anti
goods; and, at the tame time, will supply the. means of a daily earns
munication by post, instead of a weekly one, the .present sys-
tem ; and whilst these facilities will ht. offered, it bids
.fair to prove
highly beneficial to the Shareholders: for when it is considered that.
the existing difficulties of approftelt.fi"ona one town to another (no.
mail or stage coaches running), and atio the badness of many of the
harbours and inlets, are such-as to retard the shipment of -the pro-
duce of the soil and merchandise ; it may be fair to prestime that
a large portion of it will find its way to and from Kingston fQr sale or
shipment.
This Company •is formed to obviate these difficulties, and to offer
this (heap and certain means of conveying passengers and foods, and
to open a more general communication, and thus promote-the inte-
rest of the landowner, the planter, the agriculturist, the Merchants
and all other classes of persons, and the very valuable island in
general.
The Directors are authorised to state that they anticipate every
support and patronage from the Governor ansi Lcaislal toe of the
island ; and they wish to establish a pcifeet understanding be-
t.wt en this and the other companies a'ready formed, and, with this
view, they offer to give a preference of shares, to the extent of one
share for every two, held in the original King.ston aid Spanish Tswn
Line, and the like proportion to the holders of shares in the Jamaica
.Tnnetion and South Midland sines, provided they apply for Blinn on.
or before the 29th Instant.
A reserve of shares Will 1:e made for persons resident In inmate:l.

remain for tonslderation under the present plan..
