co-operafe with the North London Junction Railway Comp toy, and
the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and im,iortance
-will be realised throughout the whole of this short but very valuab:e
line of railway.
A lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the
entire district through which this Company proposes to rina this line;
by this means the most casual observer will be enabled to ascertain
that the environs of London, north of the Thames, will be placed in
immediate communication with the City ; while the dense popu-
lation of the City will enjoy a fad' ity of connexion with its suburban
localities, necessarily affording it the greatest accommodation.
With such important local resources, thereto: e, together with the
vast traffic on which the shareholders of this Company have a right
to rely for profit, a large amount of revenue may be fairly and justly
anticipated, Wily commensurate with the outlay of the proposed
.. capital. That revenue will be derived thus :
4 The daily passenger traffic on the Great Western amounts to
93,345, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Bir-
mingham amounts to 4,322 daily, two-thire.s of which reach the
I City. The Eastern Counties amounts to 2,400 persons daily, half
of whom pass to the West-end of London. The omnibus traffic daily
is 30,894 passengers, two-thirds of which may be given to the City.
Passengers from the suburban districts reaching the City, now un-
accommodated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily.
From these sources the following products are derived :

way, at 6d. each......

ton, a revenue may be derived of .......... .•••• • .. • • 17,776
