The proposed railway is intended to connect the assize town of
Omagh with the important city of Armagh, now the centre of all the
railways in the north of Ireland.
The line will commence at Omagh, and, passing infougn or near
to Ballygawley, Fintona, Clogher, and Augher, Auchnacloy, one of
the best market towns in the north; Caledon, celebrated for its corn
and flour mills; and Killylea, terminates at Armagh, where it will
form a junction with the Ulster Railway to Belfast, the Inland Line
to Dublin, the Newry and Ermisk Ren, and also the Armagh, Cole-
raine' and Portrush Railways.
At Omagh it will connect itself with the Londonderry and Ennis-
killen station at that town, by means of which those two important
places will be brought into the most direct communication with all
the cities and towns already mentioned.
By this line of railway, the inhabitants of the counties of Tyrone,
Monaghan, Fermanagh, Derry, and Donegal, will be afforded the
most direct and expeditious mode of access to Armagh, Newry, and
Belfast ; and as the distance between Omagh and Dublin will be by
the line twenty miles shorter than that proposed by any other com-
pany now projected, the whole goods and passenger traffic from the
north-western and north-midland parts of Ireland in the direction of
the metropolis will pass over this railway.
It is almost unnecessary to state that the country to be traversed
by this line may, in respect of population, wealth, and enterprise, be
put in competition with any other in Ireland.

To those acquainted with the county of Tyrone, and the ordinary
course of its traffic to Belfast and Newry, it must be obvious that
this railway will afford facilities for the transit of goods and pas-
sengers, which mast be at once a great accommodation to the public
and most remunerative to shareholders ; while the resources of the
adjacent counties and surrounding districts will be most advan-
tageously opened up and developed.

Will be repeated a New Comedy, entitled PEG WOFFINGTON;
or, The State Secret. The Marquis de Mousseux, Mr. Selby; Baron
Stuph, Mr, Paul Bedford ; George Tarleton, Mr. Hudson ; Merestick,
Mr. Wright ; Peg Woffington, Miss Woolgar.
To be followed by the highly successful and Original Farce, called
THE IRISH DRAGOON. Mr. Brown Sherry, Mr. Selby; Paddy
Murphy O'Brallaghan, Mr. Hudson.

Lambert ; Captain Kidglove, Mr. Selby ; Jacob Gerkin, Mr. Wright ;

Miss Woolgar.

The entire lengh of the line will be about 35 statute miles, and as
there are no engineeringdifficulties of any importance to be encoun-
tered, the cost of construction will be under the average; while,
from the support which has been vouchsafed by the landed pro-
prietors along the line, and the spirit with which they have entered
into the undertaking, the purchase of the land will be oomparatively
moderate.

This Railway proposes to afford to the entire county of Down a
complete system of railway communication. Commencing at the
quays of Warrenpoint, and passing through the commercial town of
Newry (where it forms a junction with the Newry and Enniskillen
and Dublin and Belfast Junction Railways), it traverses the entire
length and breadth of the county Down, termed in the Land Commis-
sioners' report " the garden of Ireland." Proceeding from Newry
in a northern direction, in a line almost parallel with the mail-
coach road, to a point about midway between NeWly and Banbridge,
the trunk divides into two great arteries, bne running north-westerly
through Banbridge, the seat of tint linen and flax trade of Ireland,
falls in at Moira, on the Ulster line, thus effecting the speediest route
from Dublin to Belfast ; "rile the other, taking an easterly direction
by Rathiriland, CaStlewellan, and the assize town of Downpatrick to
Comber, is there met by a most important part of this under-
taking, namely, a branch from the mail. packet station and port of
Donaghadee, through tho richly populated district and town of New-
tonards, and terminates at the quays of Belfast.
It will be thus seen that this comprehensive undertaking embraces
every important town in the county, and affords the only direct and
continuous route through Newry to the port of Warrenpoint ; while
the branch to Donaghadee, in connezion with the proposed British
and Irish 'Union Railway, from Portpatrick to Stranraer, Dumfries,
and Glasgow, accomplishes the Intist expeditious and safe communica-
tion between Great Britain anfi Ireland.
Power will be taken tt. extend the line from Downpatrick to the
port and harbour of Ardglass, whenever it may be deemed advisable
by the shareho.laers. The traffic tables guarantee a return on the
whole line t, at least seven per cent. on the proposed capital. The
liability"of the Shareholders will be limited to the amount of their
-
and interest at the rate of four per cent. will be allowed on
the deposits and calls until the line is opened.
The detailed prospectus and map can be obtained at the respective
offices of the Company, and applications for shares may be made to
the solicitors and secretaries, as above ; and to the following brokers :
