SIR,---The very important position"- wldeh rails
1.3 now hold in the public mind, and the impartial mann,
which that interest has been represented in your paper, in,
me to request that you will, with the view, of_ preventing

eeption calculated to inflict great injury in this populol
tract, .place the. following questions before the public, in
that parties who have the power to answer thenl may
relieve themselves from serious charges, or withdrasrf
hopeless contest, in which vast sums of money mutt be 11S1
expended, and many parties necessarily placed in grea
culties and distress. The questions to which 1 refer reL
the Liverpool and Leeds Direct Railway, which is stated 1

scheme emanating from a solicitor in London, ar
a Mr. , all parties connected with a weekly
paper, in which paper this scheme forms the subj!
article weekly, and is extolled as the most prowl

1. IS it true that these tl

2. Di) they make that publication entirely sn
bolstering up this scheme ?

3. Did two of these gentlemen, at the commencement, g
Yorkshire and Lancashire, and represent= for the purp,

4. Did unanv gentlemen,•from such representation

deceived ?

5. Did they not allot the shares (that are allotted) very
rally to local gentlemen who had made no application for t
accompanied by a letter of explanation, the greater pa
which were unnoticed by the parties ; and although tin
shares that were let loose on the public were, by news]
puffing during the height of the mania, run up to .t-5 preu
has a third of the required capital been signed for in the pi
mentary deed ?

6. Dcier not the partial knowledge of this fact ma
perfectly unsaleable at any price ?
7. Are there not between Littleborough and
miles, with a gradient of 1 in 103, with 10 miles
other works—in viaducts, embankments, I
miles—as expensive, or mare so, than even
part of it more than three miles from an exi
same points, with good gradients ?
8. If such a project could ever pass t
