I'ItOSPECTUS.

This important line of railwaywiTl commence at a point on the
Manchester and Bolton Railway, between Bolton and Farnwerth'
running, thence in a direct line through Worsley and Patricroft to a
point on the Manchester South Junction and Altrincham Railway,
with which it will form a junction, to Cheadle, where it will unite
with the Macclesfield branch of the Manchester and Itirmhe ham
Railway, by which means a direct railway communication wwi,l be
opened with Macclesfield, and the various lines of railway pl,l seed
to terminate there.
The great advantage to be derived from a communication bet ween
Bolton and Altrincham, and via Cheadle with Macclesfield, will at
once be seen on reference to the map, not only as a feeder and chem.
nel of communication between existing and projected lines, but also
as supplying the link wanting in the chain el direct communication
between Bolton, Blackburn, and a very large extent of the populous
manufacturing districts and towns of the central part of the etunty
of Lancaster, with the Staffordshire Potteries, the great iron dis-
tricts, Birmingham, and the metropolis, and consequently the biter-
mediate places in the lines of the various existing and projected
railways between Manchester, Macclesfield, and the whole of the
southern portion of the kingdom.
An important feature in this undertaking is, that whilst It will, by
means of existing and projecting lines, open up to the immense agri-
cultural and manufacturing population of Warwickshire, Stafford-
shire, and Cheshire, a direct communication with Southport, Black-
pool, and the ether watering-places situate on the coast of Lance-
shire; it will likewise form a continuation of the proposed direct
lines from London (via Macclesfield) to Edinburgh and Che:gow,
either by Fleetwood upon Wyre, or by the Lancaster and Carlisle
lines.

The sating of distance between Macclesfield and Bolton being im-
portant, whilst the great but unavoidable delays which must be in-
curred in passing through the different termini in Manchester N, ill b
obviated.

Another important feature in this enterprise is, that it will not
materially affect any existing or contemplated lines, and that it will
be able, by uniting itself with them, and with ether projected
lines, and lines now in the course of formation, to increase their mu-
tual traffic to a considerable extent both in passengers and Beds ;
and being the means of establishing a principle of reciprocity, cannot
in any manner injure any existing interests.
To the town of Bolton awl its neighbouring extensive coat
fields, it is obvious this line will secure the most important advan-
tages by its connexion wil:i existing lines, and others projected
which will centre there. It need hardly be added that whit all
these advantages, a most important traffic for passengers and ;roods
may be relied upon, independent of which, as the line itself presents
no engineering
dmiculties, or other obstacles of importance, and will
be executed at an expense tiir below the ordinary average, the most
ample security to the capitalist is offered.
The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the share-
holders beyond the deposit now paid until the Act of Parliament is
obtained, and power will be reserved in the Act to allow 4/. per
cent. interest on all calls.
A certain number of shares will be reserved for the landowners
and others having local interests in the line, and who are friendly to
the interests of this Company.
