WITH ITS BRANCHES FROM CREIL TO ST. QUENTIN,
AND FAMPOUX TO HAZEBROUCK.

(DECAN AND LEBEUF'S COMPANY.)
NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS.

By the recently promulgated law it appears that the Northern Line
of France, with its two Branches, are to be treated and adjudicated
as three separate lines of railway, it therefore becomes necessary that
the applications for the Allotments of, and the receipts for, Deposits
on Shares should be separate and distinct ; and under the powers
reserved by the Committee, and assented to by the Subscribers or
Shareholders, the latter are hereby required, under pain of forfeiture,
between 310NDAY next the 4th, and Tsuasnsz, the 7th August, to
attend personally, or by their agents, and re-sign applications and
exchange deposit receipts accordingly, at one of the undermentioned
Bankers of this Company, viz.

Messrs. Curries and Co., 29, Cornhill, London
Liverpool Borough Bank, Liverpool
Messrs. Scholes and Co., Manchester
By order of the Committee,

IRISH GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY
DUBLIN TO GALWAY.

The Dublin and Galway Bill having been lost for this session, the
Provisional Committee have to acquaint the scrip-holders and the
public that, at a meeting of the Board, held this day, it has been re-
solved to proceed to procure an Act in the next session of Parlia-
ment, for making the railway between Dublin and Galway, the suc-
cess of which appears to be insured by the decision of the House of
Commons in favour of the merits of this line, and the strong expres-
sions of a like tendency elicited in the debates in the House of Lords.
The line will have the strenuous support of the great landed pro-
prietors generally, and of other interests throughout the west of Ire-
land, as well as the cordial co-operation of the Great Southern and
Western Railway Company.
The interests of the present scrip-holders will be careiblly protected
in the arrangements to be made, full particulars of which will be
published in a few days.

GUNTER'S TURTLE
FRESH IMPORTATIO/P.

This Turtle being killed in Honduras, the choicest parts are selected
and preserved in air-tight cases ; the full flavour •f the turtle is there-
fore entirely retained. This plan must be particularly advantageous,
as the turtle is killed in a healthy state, whereas the effect of the long
voyage on the live fish is generally found to be highly injurious.
To be procured of the agents, Taylor and Grignon, 2, Suffolk-street,
Pall Mall East, in cases of 21b. each, at 7s. per lb. Each cast will
make soup sufficient for sixteen persons.
