The vales of the Ogwr (or Ogmore) Fawr and Ogwr Fach, and
of the Garw, lying near and nearly parallel to each other, abound
in minerals of the most valuable description, but owing to their
secluded situation, and, above all, to the want of a cheap pd easy
communication with the sea, have been hitherto wholly neglected.

In order to supply this deficiency, and to open to the various
markets the vast resources which these valleys afford, the above
connecting lines of railway have been projected, and by them com-
munication with the port of Cardiff, Port Talbot, Porthcawl, and
every other port in the Bristol Channel, will be effected.
The length of the main line will be about la miles, and the branches
up the three valleys 16, making in the whole about 34 miles.
The branches will commence from Blaenogwr, in the vale of Ogwr
Fawr, from Blaenogwr, in that of the Garw, from Blaenogwr, in the
vale of the Ogwr Fach, sad will concentrate at Bryn Cethin ; from
thence the main line formed by thisjunctionlwill pass hy Llanharren,
and join the South Wales Railway near to the port of Cardiff.
The whole district of country through which the line's will pass has
already been surveyed by highly competent parties, and affords gra-
dients and levels of the most favourable kind. No heavy cutting,
expensive bridges, or embankments, will be required, so that the
cheap execution of the proposed lines is perfectly certain. There is
on the spot abundancepf stone and other materials for the proper
execution of the works. The project is supported by powerful local
interests, and all the landowners who have yet been consulted have
given their sanction and approval.
The rising town of Bridgend and its neighbourhood will
be greatly benefited by the completion of this undertaking, and a
cheap and ready market be afforded for their manufacturing and
agricultural produce. It is intended to form a junction with the
South Wales Railway near this town.
The vales present sites far ironworks ; and the establishment of
colleries on a large scale will Immediately succeed the formation of
the road. Twenty-five miles of the line will pass through pro-
perty abounding in coal, ironstone, blackband, and limestone, all
which products have not at present the means of transit to any mar-
ket whatever. _ _

_lt is confidently anticipated that the investments in this under-
taking will give a handsome return to the shareholders.
No subscriber will be answerable beyond the amount of his deposit
until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his sub-
scription.

Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained the affairs of this
Company shall be under the control of a Managing Committee, to
whom power will be given to allot the shares, and to apply the funds
of the Company in payment of all the expenses incurred in its forma-
tion, and in the preparation of the plans and sections to be submitted
to Parliament. _

Power will be applied for in the Act to raise any additional capi-
tal, to extend or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines,
or enter into any arrangements, by amalgamation or otherwise,
wall any otin r Company or Companies ; and power is hereby given
to the registered promoters to nominate the Managing Committee
of the Company.
In the allotment of shares a preference will be given to landowners
on the line, and to other parties locally interested.
Prospectuses and maps may be had of, and applications for shares
may be addressed, in the form annexed, to IV. IS. James, Esq. soli-
citor, 5, lia,ingliall-street, London, at the temporary Offices of the
Company ; and at those of the undermentioned brokers ; but no ap-
