The object of this line is to tired a direct communication between
London and the Land's Ignd.
In a national point of view such a line is indispensable. With
the advantage of a direct railroad, Falmouth, from it, gintatioft at the
western extremity of the kingdom, would tindotibtedit lung Sine°
have been the principal port on that coast. With the advantage of
at least 280 miles of heavy road, that place 11a.4 attained ltd high Po-
sition as a Packet Station. Sotithaninton, With nit lads natural ad-
vantages, has, since the opening or the South-Western Railway, in-
creased its imports/ roni 200,0001. to 3,000,000/. per annum. At Bris-
tol, before the opening of the Great Western Railway, the imports
were declining ; since then they have very considerably igereit.itd,
moTultii b)
The merits. ny of a line to the Land's End as an Investment for ca-
pital, it was not left to the present Company to discover. The Great
Western and Bristol and Exeter Railway having already reached
Exeter, it has been in contemplation to extend that line to Pal.
way of Plymouth; and various other projects have been
set cei foot on the conviction that Falmouth must be reaelimi b,y
railway.
....

The object of this prospectus is to that ne ether line than the
present can ultimately satiefY the exigencies of the country in regard
to this, its most IMpottant eutport—" the natural Packet Station of
the empire,''
The preeent project is distinguished by this—that It is direct. It is
as nearly as possible a straight line from London to the Land's End.
The London, Bath, and Bridgewater Company having aniSigd-
mated with this Company, the immense local Influence commanded
by them will now contribute to the great national object of a direct
line ; while means have been taken for securing the traffic and atibrd.
ing all the accommodation contemplated by that Company.
The Direct Western availing itself of the Great Western Railway
so far as Reading, pursues Its course by or near Newbury, Hunger-
ford, Great Bedwin, Marlborough, Devizes, the manufacturing dis.
trict of Trowbridge (from which a diverging line will be carried by
Bradford direct to Bath), Westbury, Frome, Shepton Mallet, Wells
(from which another diverging line will be taken to Bridgewater),
Glastonbury' to Taunton, being shorter by about thirty-tiro
miles than any existing railways between these points, and without
a tunnel. From Taunton the Bristol and .Exeter Railway (now
leased tothe Great Western) is traversed to Tiverton, whence it is
proposed to carry this line direct to the Land's End, Falmouth, St.
Ives, and Penzance, being shorter by about sixty miles than the
lately proposed line by way of Plymouth, an 4 effecting, in the whole
tistanee from London toTalmouth, a savin; of about ninety miles.

ENGINEER=
This Railway is projected for the purpose of uniting the Rhondda
and Ely Vallies, with the South Wales Railway, at a few miles dis-
tance from the Port of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district,
one of the richest and most important In South Wales, which is at
present without the means of transit for its Immense and valuable
products.
It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of
Glamorganshire, where iron-atone also abounds with the coal in im-
mense quantities, and laying, geologically speaking, nearly flat, and,
obtainab'e, for the most part, by proper levels. The coal in addition
to its being of excellent quality for iron making, as is proved at Mer-
thyr and Aberdeen, is also, like that of those districts, of the very
best descriptian for -team purposes, being nearly smokeless, although
inflammable, indeed so pre-eminently is the superiority of this de-
scription of coal established for steam purposes over any other,
that the demand for It far exceeds the supply, and promises, accord-
ing to the opinion of the most eminent marine engineers, to super-
sede all others for purposes of steam navigation. This source of
traffic alone will afford a handsome return for the capital invested,
as has been demonstrated in every instance where even tram-roads or
canals have been constructed to open the mineral resources of ether
loss promising vallies in Wales than the Rhondda, which is cele-
brated for the abundance, quality, and ficility of obtaining its pro-
ductions

An inexhaustible supply of limestone (so necessary for the manu-
facture of iron and for agricultural purposes) may be obtained by
means of this Railway, much nearer and cheaper than by any other

This line will afford to the increasing population ~.of the rich vales
of Ely and Rhondda a much desired communication with the great
market town and port of Cadriff, from whence, at present, they may
be said to be almost excluded.
It is intended that the line shall commence at Bitten Rhondda, the
head of the Rhondda Valley, and proceed down to a natural pass
between the hills at Ffrwd Amws, a distance of eight miles, where it
will enter the Ely Valley and proceed down (a further dietance of
six miles) to Lanelay- bridge, near Lantrlssent, and there Join the
South Wales Railway, tints opening a communication under the most
advantageous circumstances as to distance, with all the ports in the
British channel.
A preliminary survey has already been made by competent par-
ties, and it is found that the country admits of highly favourable
gradients, so much so that It Is confidently anticipated that the
works will be executed very considerably under the adVertised ca.
pital.
The landowners along the line are favourable to this undertaking,
and the names of many influential proprietors will be found on the
Provisional Cottimittce,
No Subscriber will be answerable beyond the aitiotint Of his de-
