SECRETARY PRO. TEM.—Edward Robert Kelly, Esq. M.A.
This railway will connect Manchester with Milford Haven, by the
shortest practical route, and reduce the distance between those ter-
mini to 180 miles. The line commences at Crewe, and passes through
or near to the towns of Nantwich, Whitchurch, Ellesmere, Oswestry,
Welchpool, Montgomery, Newtown, Llanidloes, Tregaron, Lampeter,
Newcastle Emlyn, Newport, Haverfordwest, and Milford. Short
branches will be made to Aberystwith and Cardigan.
Milford Haven is the most capacious and secure harbour in the
British Islands. By taking the tide it may be entered without a
pilot either by day or night, even with contrary winds. Its situa-
tion at the southern extremity of Pembrokeshire renders it, for ves-
sels homeward-bound, from the continent of America, the coast of
Africa, the East Indies, China, and the Mediterranean, the easiest
port to gain ; and the outward-bound ship may sail from thence wills
the wind in any quarter, and immediately find herself in the
Atlantic, free from the dangers and expense of a long Channel voyage,
The proposed railway will connect the Lancashire and Yorkshire
manufacturers with Milford Haven, and afford the like advantage
to the North of England and Scotland.
The expenses on the carriage of exported and imported goods,
which the proposed railway- will greatly lessen, or altogether save,
arc

First—The wages and victualling of the ship'screw_ during the
voyage through St. George's Channel and the
Irish Sea, which
varies from two days to three weeks, averaging a third of the whole
voyageseconfdrloyt thel i,s

Thirdly—The channel light dueips,apnuclotcaagrge,osduring that time.
Lastly—The expensive warehouseing, and eight or dues, dock dues, and town dues of Liverpool,
per ton carriage by the Liverpool and Manchester Railway.
tourg, and the river
nine shillings
The carriage by railway of a ton of goods from Milford Raven to
Manchester (180 miles) will be Iss. at Id. per mile, and I/. 2s. 6d. at
the rate of Ilid. per mile.
Local traffic.—The summer passenger traffic to Aberystwith, which
is the most fashionable watering-place of the western coast, and to
other parts of Cardigan Bay, is estimated to exceed that upon the
Scarborough Railway, lately constructed.
This line will be the means of transmitting supplies of all kinds
from the manufacturing districts to the great bulk of the Welsh po_
pulation—and returning agricultural produce and live stock, as :well
as the flannel manufactures of Newtown and Welshpool—and will af-
ford access to a variety of stone, slate, lime, coal, lead, and other mi-
nerals, required to be carried to various places, for the purposes of
building, of agriculture, and of manufacture.
A direct connexion with the salt works of Cheshire, through which
the railway route to Manchester will pass, is equally advantageous to
the Company and to the shipping interests of Milford Haven ; and the
certainty of a direct communication being shortly opened between
this line and the Staffordshire Potteries, by one or other of the pro-
lected railways in that direction, adds another important item of
traffic in crates.

The extensive flannel manufactories of Newtown (known as the
Leeds of Wales), of Welchpool, and Llanidloes, and the valleys of the
Severn and the Teifl, will be connected with the Yorkshire and Lan-
cashire markets ; and the founderies, potteries, tanneries, and malt
and lime kilns of this industrious and thriving population will form a
considerable source of loeal traffic.
Ths Committee reserve power to alter the northern terminus, by
extending the line to Altrincham, if requisite, and to make such
arrangeemnts with railway companies, either for adopting other lines
for a portion of the route, or for reciprocal working and mileage rates
of carriage, as they may think proper and consistent with the great
object of opening a cheap and direct through communication between
Manchester and Milford Haven.
Power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at the rate
of 4/. per cent. upon the amount of the deposits until the line is
opened, and no shareholder will be liable for more than the amount
of his subscription.

In the allotment of shares a preference will be given to applica-
tions from persons locally interested.
Applications for shares may be addressed to the Secretary, at the
4 Company's Offices, No. 2, Norfolk-street. Manchester, and to the
local agents ; and prospectuses, plans, and forms of application may
