PROSPECTUS.
She object of this line of Railway is to complete the chain of coast
gommanication, and form a connexion with lines already established
dr projected with reasonable hopes of success.
It will commence at or near the city of Limerick, and taking a nor-
therly direction, proceed through the counties ofClare, Galway, Mayo,
and Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with the Sligo and Ennis-
killen Railway, and accommodating on its route the important cities and
towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Longhrea, Athenry, Monivea, Tuara,
P,allinrobe, Castieber, Westport, Foxford, Bettina, Rilalla, Swineford,
Streanastown, and Sligo, which town being connected with the north,
east, and south, by the different lines through Enniskillen, London-
derry, Coleraine, Belfast, Armagh, Newry, Dundalk, Drogheda,
Duhltn, Wicklow, Wexford, Waterford, Cork, Killarney, Valentin,
Traloo, and Limerick, the establishment of this line will cause Ire-
I iod to present a completeness of locomotive communication which
, other country in the world enjoys.

The country through which the proposed line travels is most fertlie
in mineral and agricultural products ; it embraces many extensive
coal fields, whose advantages it will extend to all ptrts of Connaught
and Ulster; and intersecting, as it doei, so many metropolitan lines
of railway, It will develops those advantages in an equal degree to
the province of Leinster.

The lead, iron, marble, and slate works on its route, will be
reAlcred available to the most distant parts of the island, and
perhaps not the least advantage, in a national point of view, will be
the establishment of an intercourse between the population of the
extreme north and that of the extreme south, as well as placing the
trade of, and communication with, Scotland, within the easy reach
of ali towns of any Importance In Ireland. Added to this the cer-
taint Y that oh the completion of the projected southern, eastern, sad
"stern lines, the noble natural harbours on the Atlantic shore of

From the estimates that have been made, a return of atleast 10
per cent. must be realised on the capital.
