The Southern Junction Railway is intended to form a communica-
tion between the Great Western Railway at Slough, and the South-
Eastern at Reigate.
It will afford the most easy access through the medium of the
Great Western Railway to the inhabitants of Reading, Maidenhead,
Windsor, Staines, Kingston, Epsom, and the principal intermediate
towns, to Dover, Brighton, Hastings, and the other watering-places
on the coast of Kent and Sussex.
Ireland, Wales, Liverpool, Birmingham, Bristol, and the manu-
facturing districts in the West of England will thus obtain a more
direct, less tedious and expensive communication with the Continent
than by the way of London.
The length of line as proposed will be twenty-seven miles ; and,
after a careful examination, no engineering difficulty presents itself,
as it runs for more than half the distance on a level, and traverses a
country that must be greatly benefited by this project.
The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standing
orders, and enabling them to apply for an Act in the ensuing
session.
The shortness of the line, and the quantity of passenger and mer-
cantile traffic that the line will command, leaves no doubt of an
ample return for the investment of capital.
Applications for prospectuses and plans may be made, and forms
of applications for shares had at the offices of Messrs.L 1,:l Agents; Potter and
Collingridge, solicitors, 5, Basinahall-street ; of the oc
and of the following gentlemen :

THE GREAT WESTERN, BRENTFORD,
and CENTRAL TERMINUS JUNCTION RAILWAY
Company. Office, 53, Charing-cross.
At a meeting of the inhabitants and owners of property in
Hounslow and its vicinity, held on Saturday, the 11th instant, in pur-
suance of a requisition most numerously and respectably signed,
HENRY POWNALL, Esq., Spring-grove, Brentford, in the chair,
It was proposed by G. COOPER, Esq., seconded by Mr. Wa.LanAN,
and unanimously resolved—

1. That it is highly desirable that railway communication be
established between Hounslow and London, and that it be as direct
as the nature of the country will permit, and follow as closely as
possible the course of the old coach thoroughfare.
Proposed by Major JELF SHARP, seconded by B. J. ARMSTRONG,
Esq., and unanimously resolved—

2. That having heard and considered a statement of the course
which the projected line of Mr. Page will take, this meeting Is of
opinion that such line is most highly calculated to promote the
interests of this town and neighbourhood, and presents a prospect of
far greater advantage than any line crossing the river, and not pro-
ceeding directly to the centre of the metropolis.
Proposed by JAS. MONTGOMERY, Esq. ; seconded by Mr. KING
and unanimously resolved— +
3. That the line projected by Mr. l'Age is particularly entitled to the
support of the inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood for the
following amongst other reasons :-
1. That it is the line originally proposed by the inhabitants of this
district.

2. That it follows the direct course of the ancient thoroughfare
from Hounslow to London, without crossing the River Thames.

3. That means having been taken for extending the original ter-
minus from Milibank to the immediate vicinity of Charing-cross,
it presents a more convenient access to the metropolis than any other
"---

That this meeting, therefore, pledge themselves to give every assist-
ance in promoting the success of this line.

The thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to Henry
Pownall, Esq., as well for his kindness in taking the chair, as for the
ability with which he presided over the meeting.
