. T a MEETING held at Edinburgh the 25th day of
November, 1835. the Lord Da.sN of GUILD in the Chair,
the following Resolutions were unanimously adopted:--
• Ist.—That this Meeting is fully, convinced of the great value
and importance of a Railway, connecting the city of Edin-
•burgh with the port of Leith, and the shore of the Frith of
Forth; and that such a,measure is required by the deficiencies
in the present modes of conveyance; that while it will be of
great public utility, it holds out 'flattering prospects of a large
return to the Subscribers to the undertaking.

2a.—That the:plan laid before this Meeting for carrying such
a measure forward seems well adapted to attain the object; and
.without definitively fixing on the proposed line, resolved that
Messrs. GR A INGER and MILLER be employed to complete the
'survey of the best line in the direction of that submitted to this
Aleeting, so that the necessary plan, &c., may be lodged in the
hands of the Clerks of the Peace in due time, conformable to
the rules of Parliament,
3d.—That the capital Stock to be raised for carrying the
measure into effect be £BO,OOO, and that a subscription be
.forthwith opened for 4000 Shares at £2O per Share, each Sub-
scriber to pay 5 per Cent. per Share for the purpose of defray-
ing the charges incurredin the progress of the undertaking, so
far as the saute may 69.;required.
.4th.—That the Deposit of 5 per Cent. be the only one called
for until an Act of Parliament for incorporating the Company
be obtained; such Act to contain the necessary clauses to limit
the responsibility of each Subscriber to the Sum for which he
may have subscribed.
sth.—'That another meeting be called as soon as the survey is
completed, for the purpose of choosing a Committee of Manage-
ment and forwarding the undertaking.
6tb.—That these Resolutions be published.
