TILE PROVISIONAL DIRECTORS have 4 ,ch satisfac-
tion in stating to the Subscribers that, h, ng submitted
the Plans and Sections, as prepared by Mr 'air-her, to Mr.
Cubitt, they have received a Report from .e latter, on the
Dover Line, of which the following is an e, ract:—
" Looking at the Line as a whole, f • m Wandsworth to
Dover, nothing can be more favourable t , an the greater part of
it is for the purpose of a Railway, h • for about forty miles
of the portion between Oxted and 1, • er, almost on a perfect
level and straight line—so much so at, in my judgment, the
advantages of that portion of the line will so far balance the
disadvantages of the Croydon division, as to bring the cost of
the whole, at per mile, below the average of Railways in general."
The " Croydon division" alluded to in the above extract
comprises a distance of seven miles, from Croydon to Oxted,
where the line is entirely through chalk; but, even in this por-
tion, the gradients, as stated by Mr. Cubitt in another part of
his report, are more ftvourable than those on a part of the
Liverpool and Manchester Railway, which has been working
with so much profit and success since its first establishment.
The opinion of Mr. Cubitt, as expressed in his report, is also
highly satisfactory as to the amount of the estimate, as calcu-
lated by Mr. Palmer, and which Mr. Cubitt considers as suffi-
cient for the execution of the work. _ _

The Report is open to inspection at the Office, where, also,
a revised edition of the I'rospectus may be obtained.

GLASGOW, PAISLEY, AND GREENOCK RAILWAY.
A T a PUBLIC MEETING, held in Greenock, on the 280
1-I._ ult., WM. 'MA.CPIE, Esq., of Langhouse, Provost of
Greenock, in the Chair, it was unanimously agreed/on the mo-
tion of Sir TheftAEl. SHAW STEWART, Bart., M.P., that the
formation of a Railway between Glasgow an Greenock, to
Communicate with Paisley, Johnstone, and P t Glasgow, will
he productive of the most important adyanta sto the Agricul-
tural. Commereial, and Manufacturing Inte sts of the Country
in general, and cannot fail to afford an mple return to the
Subscribers. _

Measui es for forming a Joint Stoc ompany were imme-
diately taken, the Capital. Stock of whi obe in the first instance
£250,000, divided into £lO,OOO Sha s. And such are the
evident advantages of this undertaking, arising from the com-
mercial and manufacturing importance of the towns which the
line; not exceeding twenty-five miles, is to connect, in addition
to the rich mineral district and the continued dense and indus-
trious population through which it will pass, 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 who will publish a detailed
Prospectus as soon as possible. Meanwhile all applications for
the Remaining Shares must be made to JAMES TURNER, Town-
clerk of Greenock.
