This railway is intended to connect the midland counties and towns
of Ireland with the cities and harbours of Limerick, Waterford, and
Dublin ; and passing through the rich district of the Golden Vale, the
most productive land in the south, embraces the traffic of the best
inland towns in It eland, amongst which may be mentioned Clonmel,
Kilkenny, Carrick-on-Suir, Thurles, Callan, Killenaule, Fethard, &c.
The districts traversed by this line are well known for their rich-
ness in all articles of export, such as Corn, Flour, Cattle, Butter,
Pigs, Eggs, Fowls, &c. &c., and are not less remarkable for the con-
sumption of the ordinary commodities fbrming the import trade of
Ireland.
This line is intended to commence in the eastern suburbs Of the
town of Clonmel, and thence passing by Fethard, runs close to the
Slievardagh collieries, keeping parallel with, and contiguous to the
coal district for upwards of seven miles; it passes through the town
of Callan, and holding nearly a direct line, enters the city of Kil-
kenny on the north-west side, near the new cathedral, where a fa-
vourable site for a convenient terminus presents itself. At Kilsheelan
it is intend, dto construct a branch from the Limerick and Water-
ford Railway, which, sweeping round the base of Slievenaman, will
unite with the main line near Feshard. The Thurles branch is in-
tended to leave the main trunk line at Fethard, and passing near
Millenntile and through the coal-fields of Slievardagh, will form a
junction with the Dublin and Cashel Railway at Thurle4. Until the
traffic of this latter branch becomes more fully developed, it is in-
tended to work it as a single line, taking land, however, and making
the permanent works for a double way. The present quantity of
coals and eulm raised sit the Slievardagh collieries, amounts annually
to over 80,000 tons, the greater portion of which is brought to the
towns of Thurles, Fethard, Callen, and their vicinities ; and there
can be no doubt that the advantages afforded by railway transit will
have the effect of increasing the present consumption of this article
to a very considerable extent throughout this large and improving
agricultural district.

There are not any engineering difficulties, and the grudients are
most favourable. The absence of tunnelling, viaducts, or other
works of magnitude will enable the line to be constructed at a very
moderate expense.
The p, ipulatioa of the thickly-inhabited country adjacent to, and
traversed by the Railway, cannot be taken at less than a million, and
the Railway Commissioners' Reports, with their passenger and
traffic returns of 1836 (which may be referred to) show that the
principal streams of intercourse in the central parts of Ireland are
along the course this line of railway is intended to take.
The value of the exports and imports of Limerick and Waterford,
according to the Commissioners' Reports, amounted, in 1836, to up-
wards of four millions and a half sterling. It has been ascertained
that at the present time it amounts to considerably more; and when
it is considered that the chief supply and consumption of the trade of
the above-named ports depends upon the localities traversed by
this Railway and its branches, no doubt can be entertained that
the principal intercourse through the Midland Connties of Ireland
will be carried on this line.
In its course by Killenaule the line intersects the well-known col-
lieries of Slievardagh (which are now worked most prosperously
by the Mining Company of Ireland), and its extension to Nenagh
will connect the Middle Shannon (the improvements of which
noble river are progressing rapidly) with the Harbour of Waterford,
by a nearly direct line through the most fertile and populous dis-
trict in the Southern and Central parts of Ireland.
The branch from Callen to the Waterford and Kilkenny Railway at
Kells, about three miles in length, will not only form a valuable
feeder to the main trunk-line, but will also afford direct Railway
communication between the central parts of the county of Kilkenny,
and the south and south west of Ireland.
This projected Railway, connecting Clonmel with the city of Kil-
kenny, being the two principal inland towns in Ireland, secures the
largest and most valuable streams of traffic in the interior of the
country. It will form a valuable auxiliary to the proposed lines in
the south and north of Ireland now before Parliament.
The data Burnished by the Railway Commissioners of the traffic
of the localities traversed by this Railway have been carefully exa-
mined, and they have been ascertained to be considerably below the
present traffic. Without calculating on any increase of merchandise,
or other existing traffic than that arising from passengers, and after
deducting 40 per cent. from the gross receipts for working expenses,
on a very moderate tariff of charges, there remains a net profit of
upwards of 56,0001. per annum, being more than 9 per cent. on the
capital.

The line will commence near TWO, and join the Lancaster and
Carlisle Railway near Clifton, passing by Bedele, Leyburn. Askrigg,
Hawes, Kirby Stephen. and Appleby.
As this will form a main-trunk line from London. Hull, York,
Leeds, Lincoln, Boston, Cambridge, Norwich, Yarmouth, and tie
towns of the eastern portion of England. to Carlisle, Glasgow, and
Scotland, an immense through traffic must pass along the line.
The country through which this railway will pass is one of the
most fertile in England, and it supplies the greltt food-consuming
districts of Yorkshire with large quantities of corn. cattle, and other
produce. In lead, coal, freestone, flags, and other minerals, a large
trans is also expected, considerable quantities being at present ex-
ported in carts • but from the want of canals, or other proper facili-
ties of communication, the resources of the country have not yet
been properly developed. The limestone in the vicinity of the pro-
posed railway is peculiarly adapted for agrieultural purposes, and it
is estimated that a considerable revenue, will be derived from its
transport.

Thi usual steps have been taken to ascertain the amount of traffic,
and there is no doubt but that it will afford a handsome return on
the capital invested ; and from a preliminary examination of the
country, it is found that the engineering works on the line are likely
to be of an inexpensive character, and the proposed capital will be
amply sufficient for its completion.
It is proposed to apply for the usual power to allow interest at the
rate of 41. per cent. per annum upon the paid-up capital, from
the date of each payment until the completion of the railway.

This short but important "railway will commence by forming a
junction at the viaduct over the river Trent, near Alrewas, on the
Birmingham and Derby Railway, and proceed in nearly a straight

line to Dudley, being a distance of about twenty-one miles, forming
a direct and unbroken railway communication between Derby and the
North Midland Counties and Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and the
other South-Western Counties of England.
This railway includes in its course the city of Lichfield and the
large and rapidly increasing town of Walsall ; leaving which it will
continue through the manufacturing and mining districts of Wednes-
bury and Tipton, to its terminus at Dudley, where it will unite
with the railways connecting Stourbridge, Kidderminster, Steurport,
and Worcester, and the whole of the south-west district. Near
Bescot Bridge it will join the Grand Junction Railway, so as to form
the shortest route to Birmingham ; and by means of a branch
through Darlaston and Bilston, to join the proposed lines from Bir-
mingham and Dudley, will also form the most direct line to Wolver-
hampton.
The shortest and most direct line will thus be formed for the
transit of manufactured iron, &e., from the centre of the vast
mineral and manufacturing districts of South Staffordshire, to Gains-
borough and Hull, and to Sneffield and the other great markets of
the North.

The ironstone and other produce of the Derbyshire mines will also
be brought by means of this railway direct to the furnaces of Stafford-
shire, and the coal from Cannock Chase and Brownhilis (the best for
domestic purposes), will be conveyed at a small coat to supply the
towns of Walsall, Wolverhampton and Birmingham.
The Hay Head lime, and that of Bushell, the former considered
the best for hydraulic works, and the latter for agricultural purposes
and for the manufacture of iron, together with the blue bricks and
tiles of Walsall Wood, at present so much in demand, but nearly
excluded for want of railway access, will all be brought directly
into the proper markets, and will form an immense traffic for this
railway.

Some estimate of the Passenger Traffic may be formed when it IS
Stated that the population of the towns embraced by this undertaking
amounts to nearly three hundred thousand ; and when the enormous
traffic which must result from opening up the most favoured district
in England is considered, there can be no doubt that the construction
of this railway, besides the great benefit arising to the public, will
prove, as an investment, amply remunerative to the Shareholders.
Preliminary surveys have been made, and the line is favourable both
as regards gradients, economy of construction, and future working.
There are no expensive earth works or engineering difficulties, and
the estimate is under the usual average per mile ; and the line Is so
laid out as not to interfere with any ornamental property.
Applications for Shares may be made, in the form appended, to
any of the solicitors, or to Messrs. Aston and Scott, stock and share-
brokers, 32, Thregmorton-street, London; and the following share-
