ST. HELENS AND SOUTHPORT RAILWAY.
CAPITAL, £120.000, in 4,800 SHARES, of £25 each.
DEPOSIT, £1 10s. PER SHARE.

tlll-11S Railway, by a Junction with the St. Helens Line,
will complete th,! Railway communication between
the favourite watering-place of Southport and Manches-
ter, Liverpool, end the densely populated manufacturing
districts of Lancashire and Yorkshire, as well as Birming-
ham. and the other large towns communicating with the
Grand Junction Railway.
It. is brought out under the Hospices of the Liverpool
and Manchester and St. Helens Railway Companies, and
wite these Companies arrangements have been made for
the purpose of securing a minimum dividend of four per
cent, to the Shareholders of the proposed Line, together
with an equal division of all profits beyond this amount.
Independently of the revenue to be derived from the
large number of Passengers who now frequent the rapidly-
increasing town of Southport, the Local Passenger Traffic,
and the carriage of Agricultural Produce, the Line, for
the greater portion of its di,tance. will pass through the
tich and extensive Coal-fields of Rainford, Bickerstaffe,
and Lathoin where several Collieries are already opened,
arid new ly the whole of the produce of which district must
use the improved mode of transit to be furnished by th;s
Line.
The income of the proposed Line, which has been
estimated from the present tr.lfic, and at a much lower
rate than the ordinary Parliamentary rule, shows a nett
profit, after an ample allowance for working expenses, of
upwards of six per cent. on the contemplated outlay.
The Line which has been selected is entirely free from
engineering difficulties, and the Provisional Committee
feel perfect confidence in stating that the cost, including
the preliminary expenses and the m cessary Stations, will
not exceed the Capital of "X 120,000.
This Capital is proposed to be rained in 4,800 Shares, of
£25 each, and a deposit of £1 10s. per Share will be re-
quired on taking the same.
No further call will be made till the Act is obtained,
and interest to the amount of Four per Cent. will be al-
lowed on all payments from the passing of the Act to the
opening of the Line.
Shareholderstin the St. Helens Railway will have a pre-
ference in the allotment of the Shares, application for
which must be addressed, on or before the 15th day of
October instant, to M r. WHITLEY, Solicitor, High-street,
Liverpool, or to the Secretary of the Company, at the
Rail way-office, St. Helens. •
By order of Provisional Committee,
• ARTH Ult SINCLAIR, Secretary.

FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

posed St—Helens and Southport Railway; and I agree to

IMPORTANT TO THE FASHIONABLE WORLD.—By far
the most influential of the graces that contribute to per-
sonal adornment is the Hair. Its recovery, preservation,
and improvement, proportionably concern the elegantes of
our fashionable circles, and any information which will
ensure these desirable results will be hailed as an inesti-
mable boon. The following extract from the letter of a
respectable chemist in Bridlington- will be read with the
highest interest :—" A lady, a customer of mine, has
found great benefit from the use of your Balm. About
six months ago her hair nearly all fell off. f recom-
mended her to try your Balm of Columbia, which she
did. In the course of a few applications the hair ceased
to fall off. Before she had used one 3a. 6d. bottle it be-
gan to grow very profusely, and she has now a beautiful
bead of Hair. I am, gentlemen, yours•respectfully,

WOOLTON FLORAL, HORTICULTURAL, AND

AGRICULTURAL MEETING.

The last Woolton Meeting of the Season, for the Show
of Dahlias, Plants. Fruits, &c., took place on Thur-day
►ast. The marquee was very gaily adorned with flags,
evergreens, decorative plants. and devices. The day was
fine and the company numerous and select, comprising
many of the most distinguished individuals and families of
the locality. Of the show we may say that it equalled, and
in some departments surpassed any former exhibition there,
thus proving the beneficial effect of the Society in exciting
honourable and useful competition, not only amongst the
wealthier cultivators of the soil, but, we. are glad to add,
amongst the humbler farmers and the cottagers of the
neighbourhood. Amongst the rarer exotics, were two fine
specimens sent by R. Alison, Esq., of the Aschynanthus
Gendiflora,—one trained in a flat form, and another, more
interesting to our taste, growing pendant from a pot. The
Pelargoniums were very fine for the advanced period of the
season; but the Dahlias neither quite so fine on the whole,
nor so numerous as at the last autumnal show. Several
well grown perfect blooms were, howeeer, contributed by
R. W. Preston, and T. Rawson, Esqrs. The Roses were es-
pecially worthy of notice; some years ago we could not have
seen a collection of this Queen of. British Flowers of such
taried hues, beauty, and variety. There a ere some splen-
did Cape Heaths. particularly ; hose flowering in concentra-
ted bunches. The fruits brought up were excellent. A
splendid dish of black grapes was shown, from the gardens
of Ambrose Lace, Esq. The peaches were very large and
tempting, perticularly those sent by Mr. Blunt of the head
inn, who was also successful in other specimens of garden
production, including splendid red cabbage. The apples
were abundant, and nearly all of very fine kinds. We should
say, judging from the several recent shows we have visited.
that the general crop this year will be above the usual aver-
age, in quantity as well as quality. The vegetables were
also abundant and excellent, as sere the field productiops,
especially the Mengel Wortzel, many roots of which were
of great s'ze. There was an interesting collection of simple
British plants, contributed by a bey named Samuel H itch-
mough, of Hale, which did him great credit. Amongst
them was a specimen of the carrot in its original unim-
proved state, and the comparison Letween it and the fine
specimens of the same species, after years of culture, ex-
hibited in a remarkable degree the effects of horticuitaral
skill. We noticed some fine well arranged baskets and
boxes of plants. and cut flowers; and amongst the devices
a crown, wrought like rug work, in dahlias, &c , with the
motto over it of " Lone live the Queen !—also a splendid
crown jewelled with brilliant flowers. The Woolton Band
was in attendance, and played a variety of airs and pieces.
evincing great improvement since they first appeared.—
The tent was very spacious, and the whole of the arrange-
ments of the committee all that could be wished.
Though the season was so late there were fine dishes of
cherries and strawberries. The receipts at the door were
nearly three times as much as on any previous occasion ;
and although the tent was nearly doublein size to that. at
the last two meetings, it is expected that in future it must
be further enlarged.
In the following list of the principal prizes, we have (tn
save room) put "Ist" and " 2nd," and to signify "hest"
and "second best," &c.
