Railway having given notice of their intention to abandon that part
of their project which extends from Ludlow to Newtown, the Direc-
tors of the Shropshire Mineral Railway have determined to make a
slight deviation from their originally proposed line, and to carry their
western terminus to the Craven Arms, when it will run into and
form a junction with the Great Western and Port Dynllaen line of
railway, still reserving the power of going to Wistanston, if found
advisable. The capital will be increased to 830,000/., and the num-
ber of shares to 42,500 ; and notice is hereby given that applications
for shares will not be received after Monday, the 29th instant.
