rir HTS Undertaking, commencing on the amks of trie
Navigable River Trent at Newark, pasiing through
the Towns of Southwell and Mam.firri,and connecting it-
se f, at Chesterfiebt, with the existir% and projected Mid-
land RailwayS, will form a continuous and direct camtnu-
n'eation between the Agricultural and producing districts
or Nottinghamshire and the Smith Eastern parts of the
Kingdom on the one hand, and the large consuming
Towns and Districts of West Yorkshire, Lancashire,
Cheshire. and the Port of Liverpool on the other.
In the event of the proposed London and York Line
being -carried into effect, this Railway will also form the
connecting link hetmeen Manchester, Sheffield, and the
Nletronolis, end will afford, by means of the London and
York Line, the shorter commuiication from the Metro-
polis to these hurrtant towns.

A careful exatnination of the Country through which
this Line will pass, by Engineers of acknowledged end-
n.mce. enables the nremo;ers to state, th 4 it may be
constructed with facility, and that its character is such as
to justify a confidence that it must prove iii Orly remune-
rative t,) tha proprietary, taking into consideration the
gre,A amount of Traffic, which moat necessarily pass along
it, whether as regards Passengers, Merchandise, and
Agricultural Pt mince, or Minerals, inasmuch as the as-
trict is not proviled with any means of Transit beyond the
ordinary Turnpike Roads.

Twelve Daily Coaches are now required to convey the
Passeng,-r Tr ;1111:3 thr .u;h the District which this Line
will accommodate, at once de:rumor:l6.g its importance
and the necessity which exists for its construction.
This Line, irreoded to communicate with the existing
Mansfield and Pinston Railway, at Mansfield. will form
the ne.fre,l and mow direct route Mel can be snaaehAween
the Agricultural Districts to the East and South-east of
Newark end tlie great central Coal Field ef Derbyshire
and Nottin4hemsltire, and thus eruble the inLabizints of
those extensive Districts to supply themselves with Coals
of every qullity nt coasidet ally less than two-thirds of the
t. resent

The whole connt ry, North and South, will, by this Rail-
way, and the others will which it will tommtinicate, be
brought within easy reirh of the well-km;wo Quarries of
ttnne with which the District of Mansfield and
Mlnsfl,ld Woolltonie abounds ; es will as with the Lime
produced in that neiAbourhoJd, so cric'rated for build-
ing and other ,!urpos.7s.
The Promoters are enabled, at r a eyeful analysis of
the Traffic which kilt come upon this Line, to state that a
profit Of at le2A 7 per cert. edt Le realised upon the
eslimated cadital cif .af;0,000 after deduCting .10 per cent.
for working espenpes.
