EXPENSE.

The distance between the extremities of the line will be about
thirty-two miles, and when respect is paid to the recent great
improvements in the formation of Railways it is expected that
the costs will be less than £lO,OOO a mile, hut it has been deem-
ed expedient to hrve a capital to the extent of this rate, being
£320,000, by which means a steady and sure progression -and
compTetion of the work may be relied on,

THE PROFIT.
Considering that the county of Forfar is internally destitute
of, and that Fife abounds in coal, and considering the facilities
which would be given to the ports of Kirkaldy or Dundee for
exporting, the agricultural, and mineral, and manufacturing
productions.of the county of Fife, a very great source of revenue
would be thence derived.
• In passengers, however, the greatest reliance for a revenue
ynay lie placed. The number cif passengers at prescnt is up-
wards of 90,000, annually, exclusive of those travelling farther
north, and who would also. avail themselves of the railway
tterough Fife. But say that fl4' increase of passengers was only
to. the extent of one half of this groSs number, or 135,000
throughout the line, and nearly as many for intermediate dis-'
tances, but say altogether 250,000 passengers for various dis-
tances, this would yield -yearly. • £35,250 0 0

. . . NORTHERN CEMETERY.
TN consequence of the great increase of. the population of
A_ Liverpool to the North of the Exchange, and the want of
places of interment for_ the dead of all denomina 'ons, it has been
deemed desirable that another CEMETER should be forthed

ton, and for that end a Piece of Land I s been secured at a
' very moderate price, possessing one fron ge to Boundary-street,
and another to Netherfield-road Nor . The pecuniary adven-
t/
tages to accrue to the holders of Sha es in such au undertaking
are too obvious, from the result of others of a similar nature, to
render it nece,sary to tempt the public into subscriptions by a
long prospectus.

TABLE,. GAS COMPANY.

DEPOSIT:ZI PER SHARE.
ripIIIS Company has been:formed in order to obviate the
_l_ great difficulties the' Chnsutners of Gas in the Eastern
Division of London have' ha to contend with; the Directors
purpose supplying a pure Gakrat 30 pe cen under the rates as
at present paid, securing an.a.rnple su I not only to•the coil-
sumers by burner, but also to lose th urn by meter, for whom
aseparate main will be laid d n.
This Company does not com forward as others have dOne,
"upon the ground of public gdod,"' for while they, •afford the
public the great advantage they promise, vet in so doing.they
secure to themselves and to the shareholders a dividend of 15
per cent. for tbeir capital embarked.
The immense and continued increase in the consumption of
Gas„ both for public and privao use, renders a Company of this
desk Lion Epevond doubt a sure and certain investment, as
many-7r4rs.ovill out elapse before it supercedes the pse of fuel
altogether, as its utility in heating and culinary purposes are
now fully established; its economy and cleanliness will make it
the more desirable for such purposes.
From the many and recent improvements, both in the manu-
facture of Gas and in the construction of Works and Machinery,
this Company does possess great advantages over any at present
established, having the benefit of all without the original expense.
The Directors are determined to adhere to the strictest eco-
nomy, both, in the construction of works and in every other
branch of the establishment, and by so doing they can pledge
themselves to, supply Gas at the reduction as stated, and at the
same time
.*isure to the shareholders a larger Dividend than
any other sunikr Company ever did pay.
