cessary to seduce the present charge for con-
veyance. Thus, 200,000 persons, at 15s. each,
would be equal to an aggregate return of 150,0001.

per annum.
The expence of power to convey 300 peo-
ple and 50 tons of goods from London to Brigh-
ton and back every day in the year, in one-fourth
the time it now takes to travel that distance, will
not exceed 201. per day, or 7,3001. per annum.
Allowing 25,0001. for expences, this will leave a
profit of 25 per cent. on the cost of putting the
principle in operation from Brighton to London,
considering the existing traffic only between those
places. But it must be evident to every one,
that were means adopted by which the space se-
parating the metropolis from the coast, could be
passed over as rapidly as this principle will ad-
roit, and the latter eventually brought within,
perhaps, less than an hour of the other, the pre-
sent traffic would be increased in proportion no
one can estimate ; and the value of each 100/.
share enhanced in a corresponding proportion.
" Therefore, to secure to those who advance
the amount necessary for the first trial between
Brighton arid Shoreham every possible advantage
as original subscribers, it may be proposed to
establish the Company, not with reference to
Brighton and Shoreham only, but to reserve in
the Act of Parliament for that object, a right of
putting the principle in practice between Brighton
and London also, provided the result of the ex-
periment to ,Shoreham should he sufficiently sa-
tisfactory, to justify the prosecution of the prin-
ciple to the metropolis.
Instead, therefore, of consisting of only com-
paratively a few shares of 1002. each, the capital
for the first object may be divided. into 15,000
shares, of 71. 10s. each, with liberty to
,every
holder of a share to increase his subscription to
1001. per share, should he think proper, on the
completion of the work to Shoreham, to co-
operate in a second undertaking to London.
But that every subscriber may feel certain
that he cannot be called upon for more than
the original amount of his subscription, namely
71. 10s. per share, except by his own consent, the
Act may most fully and expressly provide, that
no person who has become a shareholder for the
first object, shall be liable to be called upon for
the second, until the result of the trial to Shore-
ham shall be known ; and that he has expressed
his assent in writing, to render himself liable to
the further sum of 921. 10s. per share, which
may then be required, to extend the line front
Brighton to London. But previous to obtain-
ing such Act of Parliament, no subscriber will
be required to pay more than the odd ten shil-
lings per share, which sum may be considered
the first deposit to be paid unto the bankers, and
in the names of the trustees, (hereafter to be de'
Glared ) to defray the cost of such Act, to be ar,
plied for in the next Session of Parliament, and

will not only return itself in a few years from the
completion of the work between Brighton 503
Shoreham, but yield a bonus of ten per cent. es
long as it lasts.
" But supposing the experiment to Shore'
ham were to fail altogether as regards pneumatic
transmission, the tunnel would still be efficient
as a rail road ; on which either horses or loco'
motive engines may be employed to draw goods
faster and cheaper than on any other rail road
so that it impossible the money can be lost, °if
the investment prove otherwise than permanently
advantageous.
