co-opera' e with the North London Junction Railway Company, and
the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and importance
will be realised throughout the whole of this short but very valuable
line of railway.

A lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the
entire district thro7gh which this Company proposes to run 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 commuLicatlon with the City ; while the dense popu-
lation of the City will enjoy a foci ity of connexion with its suburban
localities, necessarily affording it the greatest accommodation.
With such important local resources, therefore, 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, fully commensurate with the outlay of the proposed
capital. That revenue will be derived thin; :
The daily passenger traffic on the Great Western amounts to
3,345, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Bir-
mingham amounts to 4,322 daily, two-thirds of u Welt reach the
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 30,694 passengers, two-thirds of which may be given to the City.
Passengers from the suburban districts reaching the City, now no-
accemmodated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily.
From these sources the following products are derived:—

Being a revenue of more than 15 per cent. on a capital of 1,300,000/.
The capital, as now extended, will be divided into 65,000 shares of
201. each, upon which a deposit of 21. 2s. per share will be payable
forthwith.

A portion of the shares will he allotted to parties locally interested.
The remainder will be distributed amongst the present shareholders
and the public generally, upon application being made by them in a

The Directors, in compliance with the advice of their Parlia-
mentary Agents, deem it expedient, in consequence of the recent
standing ord,rs of the House of Lords, to require a deposi cf 101.

carry this arrangement into effect, to deposit their scrip certificate
