The Southern Jtutction Railway is intended to form a communic
tine between the Great Wester► Railway at Slough, and the South-
Eastern at Reigate.
It wit afford the most easy access through the medium of the
treat Western Railway to the inhabitants of Reading, Maidenhead,
Windsor, Staines, Kingston, Epsom, and the principal intermediate
towns, to:Dover, Brighton, Hastings, and the other watering-place •
on the coast of Kent and Sussex.
Ireland, Wales, Liverpool, Birmingham, Bristol, and the mans •
facturing districts in the West of England will thus obtain a mor,
direct, lees tedious and expensive communication with the COntillell
than by t t:e way of London.
The length of line as proposed will be twenty-seven miles ; and
after a careful exsmination, no engineering difficulty pi eSents
as it ruffs for more than halt the distance on a level, and traverses
country that must he greatly benefitei by this project.
The company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentar
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standin:
tind enabling them to apply for an Act in the ensuin.,

-session.
The shortness of the line, and the quantity of passenger and nu
cantilo 'cattle that the line will command, leaves no doula of n;
ample return for the investm.-nt or capital.
