This railroad was voted by the Chamber of Deputies on the 20th of
May last. The length of the lease has been fixed at seventy-five
years. The future prospects of this line, based upon official statis-
tical documents taken by the French Government, combined with the
circumstance of its becoming the great connecting link with the rail-
roads of Belgium and Germany, hold out a certainty of its being one
of the best in France.

The subscription lists were closed at Paris on the 24th May,
when application for more than double the number of Shares had been
received.

The adjudication of this line will take place within two months,
and in case of non-concession, the deposit money will be returned to
the Shareholders (without any deduction) in one month after the Go-
Yernment shall have refused the concession.

Prospectuses and forms of application for Shares may be obtained
at the Temporary Offices of the Company, 12, Moorgate-street ; or

The object of the proposed undertaking is to complete the line cf
railway communication between the important city of Kilkenny and
the capitals of Ireland and England, via Carlow; and to afford to the
rich counties of Kilkenny, Carlow, and Wicklow, the most conve-
nient local intercourse, with the cheapest mode of transmitting
their produce to many of the principal markets of England and
Wales.

all the south 'midland counties of Ireland and London, and the south
imliaapffworidll thhoew mostt he
direct
and west of England ; and it is expected that as soon as the contem-
plated railway from Port Dynllaen to Worcester Is completed, the
direct journey from Kilkenny •to London will net exceed thirteen
hours, and from Carlow, twelve ; while the proposed advantage of
short and direct railway access to a Tort of shipment on the eastern
coast of Ireland, will afford such increased facilities for the export of
the live stock, flour, and other agricultural and mineral produce,
abounding in the counties through which the proposed line of railway
will run, as may reasonably be anticipated to produce a considerable
profit to the Shareholders, and to prove of incalculable advantage to
that rich and highly improving portion of Ireland.
The counties of Kilkenny and Carlow are also peculiarly famed for
limestone of the purest quality, which is an absolute necessary, as
manure, to the soil of the county of,Wicklow, where, at present, with
all the disadvantages of slow and expensive land-carriage, it is con•
veyed in very large and rapidly-increasing quantities.
The mineral traffic of the county of Wicklow, close to the mines of
which the proposed line of railway will pass, amounts to considerably
upwards of 100,000 tons annually, a large portion of which is exported
to Neath, Swansea, and the south-west of England, from which dis-
tricts there is, in return, a very large importation of coal and oulm,
which would find its way into the interior of the counties of Carlow and
Wicklow by means of the proposed railway. It may also be expected
that the amount of passenger traffic from the inland counties of Ire-
land, which the projected line will unquestionably draw towards the
unrivalled natural beauties of the county of Wicklow, may be esti-
mated as a source of very considerable income.
From surveys already completed, it has been ascertained that there
are no engineering-difficulties calculated to impede the speedy and
successful formation of the line; and the promoters have the satis-
faction of stating, that about three-foarths of the land through which
the railway will pass is owned by the noblemen and gentlemen who
compose. the Committee of Management• of the Company.
The capital of the Company has been fixed with a view of making
such necessary impreVements in the harbour of Wicklow as the
public convenience may require. •
A portion of the Shares will be reserved for the Great Western, and
the Waterford, Wexford, Wicklow, and Dublin Railway Companies,
and power will be taken in the Act to lease the line to the latter Com-
pany at four per cent. per annum on the capital subscribed, in addi-
tion to a moiety of the profits, if deemed desirable by the share-
holders.

It is also proposed to take power for augmenting the capitol, and
extending the line direct from Kilkenny to Clonmel, if hereafter con-
sidered advantageous ; in which case priority as shareholders will be
given to the shareholders of the present company.

. ~
The plans, sections, arid books of reference will .be ready within
the time prescribed by the standing orders of Parliament, and appli-
cation will be made for a Bill to incorporate the company very early
in the next session.

No subscriber will be answerable for more than the amount of his
deposit of 11. ss. per share until the Act be obtained, and then not
beyond the amount of his subscription.

Applications for shares may be addressed, post paid, to the Se-
cretary, in the following form, at the Office of the Company, 449,
West Strand, London, where prospectuses, with map and printed
forms of application, may be obtained. •
