EDINBURGH AND NORTHERN RAILWAY,

AND
EDINBURGH AND PERTH RAILWAY,
BY QUEENSFERRY.

THE attention of the DIRECTORS of the EDIN-
1. BURGH.and NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY has
been called to a Statement contained in a Circular Notice issued
by the Provisional Committee of the projected Railway by
Queensferry, which has given rise to the belief that, by an
agreement, enteredinto in 1845, by the Representatives of the
two Companies, .the expediency of the Queensferry Line was
recognized by the Edinburgh and Northern Railway Company,
and that, consequently, their opposition to that scheme will be
unsuccessful.. The Directors of the Edinburgh and Northern
Railway Company, to prevent misapprehension, beg to *inform
The Shareholders of the Queensferry Company, as well as those
of the North British Company, that tkere is na foundation what-
'efer, for the .Statement referred to. Should the Queensferry
scheme get the length of Parliament, it will lie opposed in .all
its stages by the Edinburgh and Northern Company, and there
is now more reason than ever to rely on the complete success of
that opposition. JOHN BALFOU R,
Chairman of the Edinburgh and :Northern Railway
