The formation of a railway from Nottingham to Boston Is, unques-
tionably, of the greatest importance to the whole of the districts and
towns which it will connect, and will prove highly advantageous to
the manufacturing and agricultural interests. By reference to the
map of England, it will be seen that Boston is only about forty-eight
miles from Nottingham, while all other sea-ports; on the east coast,
are at a much greater distance from Nottingham. A very great
traffic already exists between Boston and Nottingham, which may be
increased almost to an incalculable amount when - the facilities
of railway transit are completed. The export trade from Boston is
now comparatively limited, by the want of means of conveyance
from tile manufacturing districts, which this railroad will supply.
Boston is situate in the midst of the finest land in the kingdom ;
and this part of Lincolnshire may be justly termed the garden of the
manufacturing district of England. The produce of the whole dis-
trict, particularly its wheat, is consumed in the large manufacturing
towns ; and the carriage of corn and cattle, to the great centres of
population, will alone furnish a constant and certain source of
revenue.

In addition to this, a large traffic will be carried along the line,
in manufacture goods, and in coal and lime from the Nottingham-
shire and Derbyshire coal fields, to rural districts through which it
passes, and to the shore of the German Ocean; the latter traffic is
yet to be developed, and with the cheap transit provided by this line
the important article of coal will compete at a great advantage to
the consumer with the present supply, which is now brought by sea
from Newcastle.
A very considerable amount of the vast staple produce of Notting-
ham, Derby, Loughborough, Leicester, and the neighbourhood, which
is exported to Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Germany, and all other
parts of the Baltic, is now conveyed by a circuitous and expensive
route to Hull and London, and thence, after repeated removals by
ship or steamer, to its destination; whereas, on the completion of this
line, it would be transmitted direct to Boston, and thence to the be-
fore-mentioned places, in much fess time, and at a much less expense.
Boston is not only the nearest seaport town to Nottingham, but it
is the ii atural seaport of the manufacturing towns of the whole of the
midland district, and it is the most convenient, safest, and best
situated on the eastern coast, for the shipment and transhipment of
merchandise. By recent improvements the river, or arm of the sea,
which runs through the centre of the town, has been widened and
deepened, thus affording means for vessels of from three to four hun-
dred tons hurthen, to take in and discharge their cargoes at the
wharf-side, without risk or damage, an object of importance not only
in point of security to the goods, but also in the saving of expense
usually incurred for lighter charges.
The nature of the country through which the line will pass is most
favourable in its facilities for construction : it is nearly on a dead level.
The cost of construction will be as low as that of any line in the
kingdom ; and the Company will not have to encounter the opposi-
tion of the owners of the land and estates through which the line will
pass, they being, as far as can be ascertained, most favourably dis-
posed towards the undertaking.
It will be seen that the proposed line combines all the elements of
a profitable railway ; it has a seaport town as one of the termini ;
it passes through a rich and productive agricultural district, to the
great seats of manufacture and consumption, each being a certain
source of traffic ; and it affords ready communication with the
southern, northern, and midland counties.
It is intended to apply for power in the Act to allow four per cent.
interest upon deposits, until the completion of the line.
Applications for shares may be made in the subjoined form, ad-
dressed to the Provisional Committee, at the Office of the Company,
14, Birchin-lane, Lombard-street, London; or to the Solicitors.
No person need apply for shares unless the application is accom-
panied by an unexceptionable reference. A certain number of shares
will be reserved for owners of land on the line, and for parties resident
In the locality through which the line will pass.

NEW E.NVELOPE.
In consequence of the great variety of counterfeit Envelopes
of ROWLAND'S KALYDOR, and other disreputable means resorted
to by unprincipled individuals for imposing on the public their highly
pernicious compounds under the title of KALYDOR," the Pro-
prietors and sole Preparers of the Original and Genuine Preparation,
acting undo! a sense of duty, and regardless of expense in the attain-
ment of their object—the protection of the public from fraud and
imposition, have employed those celebrated artists, Messrs. Perkins,
Bacon, and Co., who have succeeded, at great cost, in producing from
a steel plate' a NEW ENVELOPE of exquisite beauty.
It comprises a highly-finished Engraving of the Grecian Graces
standing on a classic pedestal, on each side of which is a rich pro-
fusion of flowers springing from an elegant cornucopia ; these taste-
fully blending with Arabesque-scrolls and wreaths, encircle the Royal
Arms of Great Britain, surmounting the words
" ROWLAND'S KALYDOR,"

" Sus,--I feel pleasure in being able to bear my strong and unso-
licited testimony to the excellence of your " Frampton's Pill of

general medicine. The widow of an officer, an elderly lady, and

near relative of mine, has used them—very rarely having
to other medicines for a long period of years she has recommended
them extensively, and in one instance in which she induced a person
to adoptthem, and supplied the first box herself, they have proved of
extraordinary efficacy. I think that perhaps there is scarcely any
other of the many patent medicines before the public of equal value
as a " friend in need"—certainly none possessed of superior claims.
