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. Potter and
Collingridge, solicitors, 5, Basingliall-street ; of the Local Agents;
and of the following gentlemen :
London—Messrs. Peppercorns, 2, Old Broad-street

Manchester—Messrs. Houghland and Leese, and Mr. William Mar-
