The proposed lire is one expressly contemplated by the Report of
the Board of Trade, of the 20th of March last, and its object is to
open the shortest and most practicable railway communication be-
tween -London, Oxford, Witney, Cheltenham, and Gloucester.
The objects to be effected by the proposed measure will be the
following :-
Ist. The greatest possible accommodation to the public.
2d. To preserve and enhance the value of property as it, at pre-
sent exists.
3d. The shortest and most practicable railway communication
t eiven ..)xtorci, Cheltenham, and Gloucester, and thereby afford-
ing the inhabitants of those places and the intermediate towns the
Most direct and expeditious conveyance to London and the eastern
and south-eastern districts of Englaed.
4th. To construct the line at the least possible cost, but in such a
manner as to attract a traffic from all lines now existing, or which
hereailer m,y 1:e constructed at eioter end of this line, and thereby
rar,re effeetualle accommodate the public, and rcaliae a greater
prod: for the Shareholders.
sth. file ait.ption of the double gauge, thereby affording the great
advanta_te of passing from this to all other contiguous railways,
whether constructed on the broad or narrow gauge.
6th. A great saving, not only of expense, but also of time and dis-
tance, as compared with the present railway communication from
Ch-dtenham to Oxford, viz.:—
Present route, vm Gloucester, Strcud, Swindon, and
Didcot, to Oxford
By the proposed 'Live .. • • ..
Effecting a Saving in distance of • .

.. 78 miles
.. 41 miles

37 miles

7th. As to traffic--

1. This Railway, forming a through trunk line, will become the
great thoroughfare between the South and South-West of England,
Sod h Wales and Ireland, upon the formation of the projected Rail
ways to Aberystwith and Fishguard, in Wales, and those to Galway,
and Val4ntia, on the west coast of treland, at which latter place an
exte..sive inter-communication will take place with vessels in the
American trade, outward and homeward bound,• sin.-e a very con-
siderable distance of the most difficult and dangerous part of the sea-
vorue will, by such direct communication, be avoided, and a great
saving of time effected.
2. In addition to the large traffic the railway will command of
its.lf, a direct communication will thus be opened with the Stafford-
shire a - Forest of Dean Coal Fields, and by enabling the towrs and
ne'ghboarhoods in the vicinity of the line to be supplied with coal,
&c., at greatly reduced prices, a valuable traffic not now existing
will be created. . . .

3. Witney, a manufacturing town of considerable extent and trade
in Bo cent re of the line, pays annually a very large sum for haulage
and toi:nage,
which must necessarily be greatly increased, as the re-
duction h.: the price of coal will obviously induce manufacturers to
increase their trade by the introduction of steam power.
4. In other respects much traffic will flow ftorn the carriage of
timber, sslt, slates, cattle, and other commercial and agricultural
.comrnod ties.

* The Great Liverpool steam-ship, on her first voyage to America,
was ten days beating rof!nd the coast of Ireland, and consumed her
fuel before reaching Valentla. The distance by sea from Liverpool
to America as far as Valentin, the usual route, is about 500 miles ;
from London to America as far a.: the same place is 800 miles. By
railway a communication may be eiTected between the last-named
places in about thirteen hours, and the voyage from the latter place-
to Halitai in seven days: so that Valentia will not only become the
port of intercommunication for American vessels outward and home-
ward bound, but also the great seaport between the continents of
Amerlc t and Europe, and consequently an incalculable amount of
America traffic will necessarily flow along this line.
