BiNxxxs—Sir John W. Lubbock, Bart., and Co. ; the Commercial

Bank of London,

The lines promoted by the London and Croydon Railway Com-
pany have been modified, improved, and extended, as further ac-
quaintance with the regnirements of the districts, and the capabili-
ties and advantages of the atmospheric system have rendered ex-
pedient. They were originally designed with a view to shorten and
improve the railway communication between the metropolis and
Dover, and, at the same time. to afford the greatest amount of rail-
way accommodation to the county of Kent, and those two important
objects have been steadily kept in view.

As now remodelled, the lines will give direct and independent
railway communication from London to Gravesend, Rochester, Chat-
ham, Faversham, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, Maidstone, Ashford, Canter-
bury, Dever, amd Deal. The distance to these towns respectively
will scsrcely exceed that by the present turnpike roads.
The lines will likewise materially shorten and Improve the railway
communication to Margate, Ramsgate, and the Isle of Thanet gene-
rally, and place the assize town of Maidstone and the city of Can-
terbury on the main road between London and the Continent, and in
direct railway communication with each other, and with every im-
portant town in the county.
The main line will pass through the centre of the county by Lewis-
* ham, Bromley, the Mailings, Maidstone, Faversham, sad Canter-
bury to Dover and Deal, joining the South-Eastern line by branches
to Sevenoakes, Tonbrldge, and Ashford.
The northern loop will proceed by Eltham, Dartfbrd, Gravesend,
Rochester, Chatham, and thence up the valley of the Medway to
Maidstone, where it will fall In with tiihmain line.
The entire scheme of railway eorindlfnication thus described has
been carefully examined in detail, and is found to be most favourable
both as regards the nature of the gradients and the character of the
works, then being no gradient on the main line steeper than that
DOW daily warked over by the trains of the Brighten, Croydon, and
Dover Railway Companies.
By the connexion with the Croydon Railway Company, access
will be obtained upon favourable terms to the best metropolitan
stations, and facilities will be secured for the application of the atmos-
pheric system of traction throughout.
The recent demonstration of the capabilities of this principle on the
Croydon Railway justi:les the assertion, that by these lines all the
principal towns of Kent will be brought within a short journey of
London by the ordinary trains; and as the atmospheric principle
involves the expediency of frequent trains, and frequent trains that of
low fares, it follows that the public will derive the benefit of great
speed, increased accommodation, and low charges, in addition to the
safety which is inherent in the system.
The advantages which will result to the publie from the adoption
of these lines may be reduced to the following tabular form

number.

•
* Note.—By special and fast trains the time occupied will be
considerably shorter.

Under these circumstances, it is reasonable to anticipate that this
comprehensive scheme will unite all interests of the county of Kent
in its favour.
With a view to afford the fullest assurance of the entire lines being
carried out, gentlemen locally interested have been associated with
the Directors of the Croydon Railway Company as members of the
Provisional Committee; and. In order more completely to identify
the scheme with the interests of the county, the necessary capital
will be raised by a separate fund, which will be apportioned princi-
pally between the proprietors of the Croydon Railway Company and
the landowners and other parties connected with the district.

The Croydon Company have guaranteed that in the event of an
Act not being obtained in the next session, the subscribers shall not
be liable to snore than 10s. per share for the expenses, and are pre-
pared to enter into an arrangement to construct a portion of the
line, and for the traffic being worked by them, and passed over their
railway upon reasonable terms, so as to secure the utmost economy
and the best prospect of a large divisible profit.
The Committee of Management will vary or extend the line or
any branch or branches, and increase the capital, and generally per-
form any act which they may deem necessary to insure the success
of the undertaking.
Applications for shares must be made to the solicitors (of whom
also prospectuses may be had), and should be made in he annexed form, accompanied by a reference to some member of the Provi-
sional Committee, one of the solicitors, or a banker. Applications
