This line has for its object a direct communication from the•
city of Lincoln to the populous and flourishing town of Sheffield,
and will also be the means of forming a • complete line from Boston,
Wainfleet Haven, Spilsby, Horneastle, Louth, Market Moen; East
Retford,• and Worksop to Manchester and Liverpool, and from Yar-
mouth, Norwich, and Lynn (by the use
.of the projected Pontefract,
Doncaster, and Worksop line), to those towns and all the north of
England.

The distance from Lincoln to Sheffield by this line will be forty
miles only, whereas the nearest route by any projected line at pre-
sent cannot be less than sixty miles, thereby saving a distance of
one-third, or twenty miles, as well as that of a needless expense.
The Coinmittee have great pleasure in stating that they will he
quite ready to go to Parliament in the ensuing session.

certain number of which are reserved for landowners on the line,
others locally interested, and shareholders in connecting and interested
