The proposed line has been surveyed by Sir John M'Neill
and James Thompson, Esq., whose report is highly fa-
vourable. The terminus, in Liverpool, is at present in-
tended to be near the Borou2h Gaol, in Great Howard-
street, from which the line will proceed to the west of
Aintree Racecourse, by Maghull and - Aughton, to the
town of Ormskirk, and from thence by Butscough, Ruf-
i°rd and Croston, to join the North Union Railway, at
Pareington, where a junction will be effected with the
Blackburn and Preston Railway.
A. lower Line to the west of Scarisbrick has also been

e,`"x° 1 Fields, (from which a considerable revenue may be

an the second place, a aiirect and uninterrupted Rail-

way Communication between the City of Glasgow and the
inexhaustible fields of coal and other minerals, lying in
the lower valley of the Clyde, as well as those traversed
by the W4haw and Coltness Railway, the Wilsenton
Railway, and other communicating Lines ;
In the third place, a union between the Caledonian
Railway and the City of Glasgow, possessing the Ter-
minus at that city, suggested by the Royal Commis-
sioners appointed to report on the best means of Railway
communication between England and Scotland; and
In the fourth place, a Junction of all those Lines with
the existing Railway leading from Glasgow to the sea-
ports of Greenock and Port Glasgow, so as to form one
continuous and unbroken Line to the south of Scotland
and all parts of England.
The Provisional Committee have been induced to state,
in the first place, the local objects to be attained, because
these objects have long been the subject of public consi-
deration, and, of themselves, afford the certainty of an
ample return for the expense to be incurred, without re-
ference to any Line of Railway not yet formed ; and also
because they ought not to be lost sight of in the prospect
of a Junction with the Caledonian Line, and of a con-
nection between that Line and the Railway to Greenock
and Port Glasgow.
An examination of the Sketch of the proposed Lines
will show how the objects in view are to be attained.
The Polloc and Govan Railway, which has been
already constructed and is open the public, is a line of
three miles in length, commencing at the Harbour of
Glasgow, and terminating at the Royal Burgh of Ruttier-
glen ; and it is intended to be incorporated in the present
undertaking.
With this view the Provisional Committee have ac-
quired a right to the Polloc and Govan Railway, by an
agreement of Sale conditional on an Act being obtained
for the Clydesdale Junction Line. at a price (to be taken
in stock) which will afford an ample return to the New
Company ; and it is part of the agreement that the price
(while it shall in no event exceed the stipulated sum) shall
be subject to review by Mr. Locke, the Engineer to this
undertaking, who may reduce it to such an amount as he
may think reasonable. The Provisional Committee have
also concluded an agreement for such station ground as
may be required, at a price to be fixed by arbitration.
From the terminus of the Polloc and Govan Railway
at Rutherglen, it is intended that the main line shall run
eastward to Hamilton; and that a Branch shall be formed
to join the Wishaw and Coltness Railway at Motherwell.
By means of the last-mentioned Railway the communica-
tion with the Caledohian Line will be completed ; but if
the terms demanded by the Wishaw and Coltness Com-
pany, for such accommodation, should render it necessary
or desirable, the proposed Line can be extended, at a
small expense, so as to join the Caledonian without the
intervention of any part of the Wishaw and Coltness
Railway •, and the Provisional Committee contemplate
the possibility, though not the probability, of such an ex-
tension as a part of the present undertaking.
The projected works, including the price of the Polloc
and Govan Railway, end an ample allowance for Stations,
are estimated to cost £400,000, which is proposed to be
the Capital of the Company; but in order to provide for
the possible extension of the Line as above explained,
and for some highly profitable additions in the shspe of
short side Branches, which this Railway admits of, the
Provisional Committee recommend that power should be
reserved to increase the Capital to £500,000, if needful,—
the existing Shareholders having a preference to the ad-
ditional stock.

The Provisional Committee have taken great pains to
ascertain, with accuracy, the returns which may be ex-
pected from the Traffic on the proposed Railway ; and
after allowing for every contingency, and deducting from
the gross receipts 40 per cent. for working expenses, the
results show a net profit on the Capital, of nearly 9 per
cent. per annum, exclusive of the great additional traffic
which may be anticipated from the Caledonian Line. The
Committee have concluded an Agreement with the Pro-
visional Committee of the Caledonian Company, upon
terms advantageous to both undertakings; and they have
no doubt, that, from the comparative shortness of the
Clydesdale line. and the superiority of its Terminus, the
greater part, if not the whole, of the Western tragic of the
Caledonian will pass along it.
The Committee have also ascertained that the Works
may be completed within eighteen months after the Act
of Parliament shall have been obtained. _ _ _

The Shares will be £5O each, and it will be a provision
of the Act of Incorporation that no Subscriber shall be
liable for more than the amount of his subscription. A
deposit of 10 per cent., or £5 per Share, to be paid at
the time of Allotment; and Subscribers viii have to exe-
cute the Parliamentary Deed on receiving their Scrip.
Of the proposed Capital upwards of 3000 Shares have
already been taken up, by parties locally interested.

Application for Sh,res to be made in the form annexed,
addressed to the Secretary, or to Henry Francis, Esq.,
57, Threadneedle-.treet, London ; Messrs. FORSYTH
and PRITCHARD, Liverpool; or Mr. J. B. Locke,

may be obtained.

APTA I N PIDDING'S HOWQUA'S MIXTURE
‘J TEA is an admixture of 40 rare Black Teas, produced
on as many different plantations, each Tea differing from
the rest, and possessing a flavour, a fragrance, or strength,
peculiar to itself. Blended together in the proper pro-
portions, they comprise all that is desirable in Tea. This
discovery was not the effect of chance, but of many great
advantages united in one individual, and the result of
numerous experiments and the most minute analysis.
For another to produce the same result, he must possess
equal skill, the same discriminating taste, equal power of
procuring the forty various Teas required, and know the
exact proportions of each kind used—and though he may
never once have visited China, he must have had equal
opportunities of securing to himself, its productions :
with one who, like Captain Pidding, has spent years there
in acquiring these advantages, and to whom alone How-
qua—years before his death—imparted at Canton, the
secret of compounding his Mixture.
Yet there are upwards of 500 retailers pretending to sell
tea, they call " tlowqua's Mixture"—each mixture dif-
fering from all the others. Now as there can be but ONE
REAL " Howqua's Mixture," it follows that, as 500 dif-
ferent medleys are offered-499 must be spurious. The
499 counterfeits are so many evidences of the superiority
of the ONE GENUINE. And it would be absurd to suppose
that Captain Pidding, with advantages, the result of Eight
Voyages made to China, and five years spent in that
country, would be so silly—even were it possible—as to
yield them up to 500 others, or impart to them so valuable
a secret.
The very great celebrity this Tea has acquired, having
tempted many unprincipled persons to give similar, or
nearly similar titles to their own spurious mixtures, to
guard against such imposition, purchasers should observe
that " THE SIGNATURE THUS,"
Captain JOHN RHODES PIDDING,

is on every genuine Paclo.ge.
