WHEREAS, upon the Trial of this Cause in the

Makers who sold them, or they will be equally liable to
be Prosecuted.

A

RAILWAY, connecting the City of Aberdeen with
- the Southern Lines through the populous towns of
Dundee, Perth, Arbroath, Forfar, Brechin, Montrose, and
IStonehaven, and the numerous Towns and Villages in this
naPortant Agricultural and Manufacturing District, has
nng been anxiously desired, and the Line was surveyed as
far back as the year 1837. The execution of the undertaking,
however, was deferred until the chain of Railway commu-
nication should be farther advanced. This has now taken
Place. Railways have been completed or are projected
from England, and the South and West of Scotland, to
the Southern Termini of the present line. A fresh Sur-
vey and Estimate having been obtained, the undertaking
has since received the sanction of the Noblemen and Gen-
tlemen,r Proprietors of the greater part of the lands to be
seny,ersed, and a large portion of the Capital has been sub-
ri,Ded Within the district.
r"4
a consideration of the route and length of the
Line,. it will be seen that the whole traffic of the various
Railways throughout the South and West of Scotland
roust, in its progress to Aberdeen and the Northern
Counties, fall into, and be conveyed along this line.
ILThe length of the Line is -66 miles, including Branches.
onunencing at the Harbour and Wet Docks in the centre
,)t. Aberdeen, it s bythe Villages of Cove, Port-
tthen, Skaterasfaroceed and others, to the county town of
tonehaven • thence through .the fertile district of the
Mearns, near toeVallages of Drumlithie, Auchinblae,
and Laurencekirk. by Maykirk, to Brechin, and having a
branch to the Docks at Montrose. From Brechin, it is
Proposed that the Line shall be continued to Friockheim
on the one hand, forming there a junction with the Rail-
l'aYs already finished to Arbroath and Dundee, and the
Edinburgh and Northern, through Fife and, on the
other hand, to be continued to Forfar, where it will meet
the Northern Junction Railway from Perth through
Strathmore, thus connecting it with the Scottish Central
Line.
No Tunnel is required on the whole length of the line--
the gradients are good—the value of the Land is compa-
^ratively small—and the workstare of a description which
can be e,timat.T.,d with certainty. In addition to the ex-
perience of Messrs. Grainger and Miller, and Messrs.
Gibb, as Railway Engineers, -the practical experience of
the latter as Contractors, under the firm of John Gibb
and Son, is well known, and will give more than usnal
confidence in the estimate of cost. After the most careful
consideration of the whole works on the Main Line and
Branches, and including the plant, the Capital has been
fixed at £1,000,000 sterling.
The Line traversed is very populous, and besides the
other large Towns above mentioned, Aberdeen alone con-
tains 75,000 inhabitants, and is the depot for the supply of
the important and wealthy district north of that city with
general merchandise. Aberdeen and the other towns on
the line are also important seats of the Linen, Cotton,
Woollen, and other Manufactures. The Salmon and
other Fisheries are of great magnitude. These afford a
very large item in the present carrying trade of the Coun-
try, which, with the advantage of a rapid transit, so ne-
cessary to a commodity of a perishable nature, will largely
Increase.a This trade, it is well known, has, in lines of
lway similarly circumstanced, proved a source of great
revenue.
A Portion of the country traversed being deficient of
*tone•for building purposes, whileahe other is abundantly
e applied with stone of the finest quality and of different
rteiiPtiens, a large traffic will thence arise.
fith„, rnPortance as an Agricultural district. in which the
ow:- cattle are reared and fed in great numbers, requires
ty to be mentioned to satisfy every one of the large re-
nee which the Railway will realise from the transit of
~ive and Dead Stock to the southern Markets, to which
y!ey are at present driven by tedious and expensive me-
;_lerns of conveyance. The Grain Trade also forms an
-uPortant item in the anticipated receipts.
Tables of Traffic have been prepared 'from the passenger
arid carrying trade exhibiting a clear revenue of upwards
f„.80,00(1, -or of Eight per Cent. on the Capital of
:twithout reckoning on any new branch of
fade to be called into existence, or on any undue increase
Shthat at present existing.
aresi proposed that the Stock shall be divided into 50,000
141,a of £2O each ; and, as the Standing Orders of _the
use of Commons provide that 10 per cent. on the sums
!ntinscribed shall be paid before a Railway Bill can be read
2econde time, a deposit to that amount will be required
Share Jor applying to Parliament. A deposit of 20s. per
to be paid as the Shares area warded, and the re-
, /titling 20s. before the Ist of February, 1845. The
mount of future Calls to be payable at such times as the
wCommittee may direct, and the Shares of parties failing
it pay the Calls when required, will be forfeited, along
With any sums which they may have previously paid. The
Act will provide that no Subscriber shall be liable beyond
the amount of his Subscription, that no more than £2 Ios.
Per Share shall be called for at any one time, and that
there shall be an interval of not less than three months
betwixt the Calls.
After the Act is obtained, 4 per cent. Interest will be
allowed upon the Calls, from the date of payment, until
the Line is opened for traffic. If the Act is not obtained,
the Payments, deducting expenses, will be returned.
