THE object of this Undertaking is to form a line of
Railway from the Dublin and Cashel Railway at or
near Holy Cross, by Cappa and Cahirconlish, to Lime-
rick, as laid down by Mr. VIGNOLES, whose known ex-
perience, not only as an Engineer of the first eminence,
but for his personal knowledge of the Country. and also
from his repeated Surveys thereof, will afford the strong-
est assurance that the parties engaged in this Undertaking
have selected the best line of Railway which can be ob-
tained, not only for the different Towns and Districts,
but for the public advantage. From Limerick, the Line
(by another Sun ey laid before the Railway Commission-
ers) passes on by Croom and Charleville to Mallow, and
from Mallow to Cork. The Line is obviously the most
advantageous for present construction, both to Limerick
and Cork, giving Limerick the most direct transit on the
one hand to the great Markets of Dublin and Liverpool,
and on the other by Cork to Bristol and London. The
Line proposed to pass through South Wales will also give
a direct communication to the South of Ireland, a Pro-
spectus of which is now before the Public. In addition
to this, the Line proposed is one of the greatest thorough-
fares, and embraces many large Towns and populous
places, and passes through decidedly the finest Agricul-
tural District in Ireland, and is in every way peculiarly
adapted

ao far as the Landholders have been canvassed, there
is every reason to expect their unanimous consent to the
measure.

In the Prospectus of the Dublin and Cashel Company,
it is stated that from the Traffic Tables made for the use
of the Railway Commissioners, they showed a clear profit
of 9i per cent. ; it is, therefore, only reasonable to expect
that, from the favourable nature of this Line, a profit
nearly approaching to that may be realized. Should a
Loan be obtained from Government, the Capital will of
course be reduced in proportion to such amount.
The measure is strongly supported by the London and
Birmingham and other Railway Companies, who have a
manifest interest in securing that the design shall be
completed on the best principles for the advantage of the
Shareholders, affording certain evidence that the Under-
taking is regarded as safe and profitable.
