THE object of this Railway is to form a direct line of
communication from Newcastle-unon-Tyne, the ports
of Shields, Middlesborough,Tynemouth, and Sunderland,
Seaham Harbour, the rising ports of tlartlepool, Stock-
ton-on-Tees, and the other ports on the north-east coast
of England, to the important towns of Clitheroe, Preston,
Blackburn, Bolton, Bury, Wigan, Chorley, Manchester,
and Liverpool, and the other great manufacturing and
commercial towns of Lancashire.
Commencing at Preston, it will proceed by the Valley
of the Ribble to Clitheroe, where it meets with the pro-
posed extension of the Blackburn, Darwen, and Bolton
line from Blackburn to Clitheroe ; it will thence proceed
to Settle and Hawes by the most direct course, and by
the Valley of the Ure and t!,e Wensleydale, to the towns
of Askrigg and Richmond, near which latter place it will
form a junction with the Great North of England and
Newcastle arid Darlington Railways by means of the
Richmond Branch of the former Railway.
The population of the districts thus placed in direct
communication with each cther, independently of the
intermediate population, may be safely considered to
amount to 570,000 on the north-east, and on the south-
west 1,670,000.
This line, forming the most direct route from the north-
ern and eastern districts of England, via Fleetwood, to
Belfast and the North of Ireland, will greatly facilitate
an interchange of commerce between the two countries.
It effects a swing of upwards of 40 miles over the short-
) est existing route between Newcastle and Liverpool. The
) immense population at its termini is a sufficient guarantee
1 of the passenger traffic which may be anticipated.
The line will also afford the greatest facility for the
transmission of coals from the mines
Lane.

lire to the towns and districts between the ter-
mini. In this article alone a very large traffic may un-
doubtedly be anticipated, the price of coals at Settle and
its neighbourhood now varying from 20s. to 225. per ton,
while by means of the Railway coals of the best quality

may be supplied to Settle and the northern district of the
West-Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire in any quan-
tity at from 10s. to 12s. per ton,. _ _

The want of direct means of communication between
the ports in the North of England and the towns of Li-
verpcol, Preston, Fleetwood, and Manchester, has been
long felt ; the importance also of a system of easy railway
communication around Manchester, extended to a much
larger radius than at present is occupied by any lines
towards the North, has been fully explained by the Board
of Trade, as affording a greater choice of sites for the
erection of mills and factories.

The important local elements of traffic in slate, lead,
ironstone, freestone, and lime, which will be derived from
the immediate vicinity of Wensleydale and Swaledale,

and the other great ;mineral valleys along the line, are
sufficiently obvious to all who are acquainted with the
district, independent of the traffic in cattle and agricul-
tural produce from Durham, Darlington, Richmond.
Settle, and other grazing districts, which is now very
considerable. It is believed that these sources of profit,
together with the through traffic already alluded to, will
yield a most ample return on the proposed capital.
A preliminary survey has been taken of the line, and
the sections are nearly completed. The length of the
line between Preston and Richmond will be from seventy
to seventy-five miles ; and as no peculiar engineering dif-
ficulties exist, the capital determined to be raised has
been estimated to be more than sufficient for the comple-
tion of the works.

The liability of each Shareholder will be restricted by
Act of Parliament to the amount of his subscription, and
power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at
£4 per cent per annum on all calls from the passing of
the Act until the opening of the line.
Arrangements have been made with existing railway
companies now in connexion with this undertaking, by,
which a portion of the capital will be required to be re-
served for them. Further arrangements are pending with
other companies ; the Provisional Committee, therefore,
reserve to themselves the right of making such extensions
of this project and of increasing the capital for carrying
out any such extensions as they may consider advantage-
ous, with the view of forming a comprehensive system of
railway communication from the Northern and Eastern
coast with Liverpool and Manchester and the manufac-
turing districts generally.
Applications tor shares must be made to the Solicitors,
of whom also Prospectuses may be had, and should be
made in the annexed form, accompanied by a reference to
some member of the Provisional Committee, one of the
Solicitors, or a Banker. Applications from persons lo-
cally interested will have a preference.

FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

chester, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne Junction Rnilway.
