A T a PUBLIC MEETING, held in Gree ck, on the 28th
./11.. ult., WM. MACFIE, Esq.. of Lan ouse, Provost of
Greenock, in the Chair, it was unanimo I agreed, on the mo-
tion of Sir NIICHAEL SHAW STEWART, rt., M.P., that the
formation of a Railway between Glas and Greenock, to
communicate with Paisley, Johnstone, and Port Glasgow, will
be productive of the most important advantages to the Agricul-
tural, Commercial, and Manufacturing Interesta of the Country
in general, and cannot fail to afford an ample return to the
Subscribers.
Measures for forming a Joint Stock Company ware immedi-
ately taken, the Capital Stock or which to be in the first in-
stance £230,000, divided into £lO,OOO Shares. And such are
the evident advantages of this undertaking, arising from the
commercial and manufacturing importance of tne towns which
the line, not exceeding twenty-five-miles, is to connect, in addi-
tion to the rich mineral district and the continued dense and
industrious population through which it will poses, "that more
than one-half of the Shares were immediately applied for on the
spot.

A Provisional Committee has been appointed who have di-
rected Surveys to be made, and ..vho will publish a detailed
Prospectus as soon as possible. Meanwhile, all applications for
the remaiuinv, Shares must be made to JAMES TURNER, Town-
clerk of Greenock..
