From Gainsborotgli this railway will proceed to Barton-on-the-
Hun4.bg, or Ziew.ll.talana, tiniammedi442 vicinity 0t11u44-, thereby
Ind Thug ebrripTet itid entire tbe chaifi of communication between
Birmingham and Huth •
. _

By this project the advantages will result to the public cf a
Direct line from Birmingham to Nottingham,
Birmingham to Gainshorough,
and from Birmingham to Hull;
and by =tins of the proposed South Staffordshire Junction Railway,
and the intended extension to Ashby-de-la-Zouch, a direct line from
Wolverhampton to Nottingham, and the other towns already enu-
merated. .

The.support of several companies will be enlisted in favour of the
bee, which, together with its own merits, will ensure its success in
Parliament.

As a considerable portion of the line of communication is already
made, or in progresz, the time required for the completion of this
great national undertaking will be materially shortened.
Independently of the advantages to be derived by a direct commu-
nication between the important seaport of hull and the mining and
manufacturing districts of Warwickshire and Staffordshire, a large
traffic in timber, corn, metals, &e., may be confidently expected.
The revenue of the Company, in addition, will be derived front the
great thorough traffic from Birmingham and the midland counties'to
ort at which the exports are shipped to Ham-
Nottingham and Gainsborough, and the immense traffic front Bir-
sn and the North of Europe ; and from the
tbnui
ingghh,atnht

conveyance of merchandise, agricultnral produce, and cuttlo from the
Southern, western, and midland counties.
A preference will be given in the allotment of shares to landowners
on the line, and other local proprietors, as well as to directors and
shareholders in railways interested in supporting this undertaking.
No subscriber will be liable beyond the amount of the deposit
until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his
subscription.
The usual power will be taken to allow interest at the rate of four
per cent. front the time of payment upon each Sall until the opening
of the line. _ _

No applications will be attended to without a reference to a
member of the Commit tee, a banker, or the solicitors to this Company.
The Subscribers' A eement and Parliamentary Contract must be
executed when the la' nkera' receip a are exchanged for scrip certifi-
cates,given ; and the deposits paid by
default execution of those deeds will be for-
