The Commit tee of Management of this Company have effected an amalgamation with the Dudley, Madelcy, Broseley, and Ironbridge Railway Company, on terms which are advantageous to the Share holders of both Companies. The liability of the Shareholders of this Company will be reduced from 501. Shares to Shares of 251., and Two Shares will be issaed to the Shareholders of the Dudley and Madeley Company for Three of their Shares. By this arrangement the Capital and Parliamentary Deposit of 10 per cent., and the capital requisite for the entire scheme of this Company, including a line from Dudley to Madeley next year, will be secured. The reduction of the nominal amount of the Shares renders it ne cessary for the Shareholders of this Company to have their Scrip Certificates stamped. They are, therefore, requested to send them to the Company's Office for that purpose. MR. COCKERELL'S LECTURES.

The o:Bowing report was presented : In meeting the shareholders at the beginning of the year, the Di rectors have the satisfaction to state, that the business of the Bank continues steadily to improve, as will appear from the balance sheet herewith suhmitted for their perusal and information. From this it will be seen that the transactions of the Bank during the past half-year have netted a clear profit of 20,1301. Rs. Bd., which, after paying a dividend at the rate of 61. per cent. per annum on the capital stock, free from income-tax, will leave a balance of 2,1301. Bs. Bd., to be carried to the reserve, which, together with the interest due thereon, raises the amount of the guarantee find to the sum of 96,2971 2s. 6d. The seats in the direction to be vacated on the present occasion are those occupied by Archibald Hastie, Esq., M. P., William Mitcalfe, Esq., Ambrose Moore, Esq., John Timothy Oxley, Esq., and William Shadbolt, Esq., all of whom have given notice that they are candi dates for re-electiou. In conformity with the recommendation of the Proprietors at the last general meeting, that the Board should take into their considera tion the practicability of instituting a fund for the benefit of the clerks of the establishment, in case of sickness, age, er other incapacity aris ing while in the service of the Bank, the Directors have to state that the recommendation has had their anxious and deliberate considera tion ; and that, with a due regard to all the interests concerned, they have arrived at the conclusion that the satisfactory management of such a fund would be most difficult, if not impossible, and they, there fore, cannot recommend its adoption. The half-year's dividend will be payable on and after Friday, the 23d day of January inst. The preceding report having been read to the meeting by the Se cretary, a dividend for the half-year ending the 31st December last, after the rate of Cl. per centum per annum, was declared by the Chairman. _ _ . - - - - Resolved unanimously, That the report now read be received, and that it be printed for the use of the Shareholders.

Resolved, That it is not expedient that the Directors should recom mend any one of the candidates to the Proprietors upon any occasion of a vacancy. Resolved unanimously, That the thanks of this meeting be pre sented to the Chairman and Directors for their good management of the affairs of the Bank, and for their uniform kindness to the pro prietors. Resolved unanimously, That the thanks of this meeting be given to George Pollard, Esq , the Manager, for his unremitting attention to the interests of the Bank. WILLIAM CURLING, Esq., Chairman.

The objects of this Association are twofold—the Insurance of Ships and the Advancing of Money by way of Loan, secured by mortgage on shipping. Each branch affords its own share of individual profit ; but the two operations, judiciously combined, will evidently be pro ductive of highly remunerative results to the proprietary. The Immense fortunes known to have been realised by individuals who have advanced money upon the security of shipping, with.' an assignment of the policy ot assurance, afford the hest guarantee of the soundness of the principle upon which the. Association is founded. The almost incredible number of British shipping under mortgage, shown by the books of the It ristrar-General of Customs, exhibit& a wide field for the operations of the Association. The great bulk, if not all of these loans, have been obtained upon exorbitant terms by the small owner from his more wealthy neighbour, who may look rather to the obt,ining possession of the vessel by foreclosure than to the eligibility of the security as an investment. The Association will advance a sum of money, in no case exceed ing two-thirds of the vessel's value, upon the report of its surveyors ; which loan shall he secured by mortgage upon the whole ship and earnings by freight, the policy of insurance effected with the Asso ciation remaining in its hands until the termination of the period for which the loan has been granted. . Among the many advantages it holds out, the following are not he least: To the Shipowner, the certainty of obtaining, at a moderate rate, and without injury to his credit, pecuniary assistance 'when he most requires it. The opportunity of relleying himself from mortgages bearing an exorbitant interest, and effecting them, with the Association at an equitable rate. To the Shipbuilder, particularly when building for the market, either at home or in our colonies, by placing him in a position less dependent upon immediate sale at an unfavourable season. To both, a participation in the profits of the Association by be crming shareholders, The - Association embodies the following advantages for its Pro prietary : The immediate certainty of securing a very large number of poli cies of insurance, since, although insurances will be taken without loans, no loan will be granted unless the policy be effected with the Association ; hence the double profit which will arise from these two sources. A total absence of risk to the shareholders. It may be added that an extensive connexion has been already formed in the leading outports, and insurance business to a large amount secured for the Association. The same machinery sufficing for the working of the double prin ciple here exhibited, the expenses of management will not exceed those of any ordinary marine insurance-offices. The necessary Parliamentary notices for Fitt Act of Incorporation have been duly given in the Gazettes of Nov ember, 1845. The whole sum required for the preliminary expenses has been advanced by the London members of the Co , nmittee of Management.

The importance of this project, both nationally and locally, has de termined its promoters to bring it before the public at the present moment, notwithstanding the difficulties which at first sight would appear to stand in the way of its success. The title of the scheme is sufficiently explicit to put the public in possession of its merits without a detailed statement enumerating them. Arrangements are in progress with the Canal Company for its ab solute purchase, the final completion of which will doubtless be ef fected at a very early period. The Warwick and Birmingham Canal has, notwithstanding the opening of the London and Birmingham Rai way, yielded a dividend of about 12 per cent. to its shareholders. By the conversion of the canal into a railway with the benefit of a tennirus in the centre of the large town of Birmingham, a direct railway communication will be opened with the impor tant towns of Leamington and Warwick, at which latter place the proposed line will join the branch of the London and Bir mingham Extension Railway Company, from Warwick to Fenny Compton; thus opening, by means of the projected lines through Buckinghamshire, a much nearer railway communica tion between London and Birmingham than the present one, in addi tion to conferring on the very important districts through which the line passes the benefit of railway accommodation, and which is not now possessed by them. The proposed line will be in immediate and close alliance with the Rugby, Warwick, and Worcester, the London and Birmingham Ex tension,and the Warwick and Worcester Railway Companies; those Companies having agreed to subscribe a very considerable portion Cif the required capital. The necessary plans and books of reference have been deposited, and notices to landowners and others duly served; so that nothing can prevent the Company from applying to Parliament for its Act of Incorporation in the session of 1846. Preference will be given in the allotment of shares to parties locally interested, to shareholders in the Warwick and Birmingham Canal, and the Rugby Warwick, and Worcester, the London and Birming ham Extension, and the Warwick and Worcester R •ilwayCompanies, The time within which parties must apply fur Shares will expire on the 24th of January, 1846. In the event of the application to Parliament not being made in the session of 1846, the whole of the deposits will be immediately re turned to the shareholders without any deduction for expenses or otherwise. Applications for Shares may be made in the undermentioned Form to the several solicitors and secretaries of the Company. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

In consequence of the " Lincoln, Ilorncastle, Spilsby, and Wain fleet Haven Railway " appearing in the list of schemes published in the " Times " newspaper of the 14th instant as having failed to de posit their plans on the 31st December, and as being therefore not prepared to proceed in Parliament ; the Committee of Management beg to recall to the Shareholders the statement contained in the let ters of allotment, that to the original scheme a branch from Boston to Wainfleet had been added, and that the Company would thence forth be styled " the Lincoln, Wainfleet Haven, and Boston Railway." The Committee also have the gratification of being able to allay any apprehensions caused by the " Times' " list to Shareholders, who may have forgotten the altered style of the Company, by refer ring them to those published lists which enumerate the Companies who hare duly deposited, and by informing them that they have in every respect complied with Parliamentary requisitions, and are proceeding with their Bill for the Session now about to commence, with the warm support of Lord Bayning, Lord Willoughby d'Eresby, the Governors of Ilethlem Hospital, and others of the largest landed proprietors whose estates will be passed through by the line. Dated.lsth January, 1846. SCOTT and TAHOURDIN,I BOURNE and SON, Solicitors. HUISII, WARWICK and CHELTENHAM JUNC TION RAILWAY COMPANY. The Directors have great satisfaction in informing the Shareholders that they have concluded an agreement for an amalgamation of this Company with the Warwickshire and London Company, and as the latter is a projected company of the London and Birmingham, and the Midland Companies, the Directors congratulate the Shareholders on their prospects of obtaining the valuable lino from Warwick to Cheltenham without an expensive Parl.amentary contest, particularly as no other Company has succeeded in depositing their plans . for the entire line. By the terms of the amalgamation every shareholder in the War wick and Cheltenham Company will (subject to approval by a joint Committee), be intitied to two shares of 201. each in the Warwick shire and London Company for every three in the former company. It will be requisite, in order to make up the 10 per cent. deposit, for the shareholders in the Warwick and Cheltenham to pay up 6d. per share on all the shares they now hold. As it has been found to be impossible to get in all the claims upon this Company in time to settle them before the issue of thin advertisement, the shareholders are also required to pay ss. per share on the number of shares they hold in this Company, towards the excess of expenditure over mid above the sum agreed to he paid by the Warwickshire Company. The above sums, amounting to ss. 6d. per share, to be paid- to one of the undermentioned bankers on or before the 31st instant, and their scrip certificates to be lodged with the Secretary, at the offices, 3, Church-court, Old Jewry, London, on or before the 21st instant, ac companied by a statement in the form b low, printed forms of which may be obtained at the office. They must also, if approved, sign the Warwickshire and London Parliamentary Deeds when required. Should any shareholder wish to retire, he will be entitled to re ceive back the original deposit, deduciing 12s. 6d. per share for ex penses, and the option must be exercised by written notice to the Secretary, on or before the 31st instant.

The Committee of Management of this Company have much sa tisfaction in announcing to their Shareholders that an amalgama tion, on mutually advantageotaterraa, been agreed on between this Company and the Shrewsb ur y and Birmingham Railway Com pany. By the agreement which has been entered into, it is etipnlated that Two of the Shares in the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company shall be given in exchange for Three Shares in this Company. That six members of the Managing committee of this Company shall be added to the Committee of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Com pany, and that application shall be made by the amalgamated Com pany in the next practicable session of Parliament for power to make the line between Dudley and Madeley. Notice is hereby given, that the Shareholders in this Company must forward their scrip to the Secretary, at Stourbridge, on or before SATURDAY, the 17th instant, and signify (in the form given below), their election either to receive back their deposit, less their proportionate share of the expenses incurred, or to take in exchange their proportionate number of shares in the Shrewsbury and Bir mingham Company. _ . Parties who may elect to receive back their deposits, may at once receive 2/. per share on account, and the balance as soon as the amount of the expenses incurred shall have been ascertained. Parties who may elect to take shares in the Shrewsbury and Bir mingham Company, may, in like manner, on depositing their scrip, obtain a letter of allotment for their proportionate number of shares therein, which letter will be forwarded to the original Shareholders of this Company immediately and to others so soon as the Di rectors shall be satisfied of the sufficiency of the applicants ; and parties v. ho shall fail to send in their scrip on or before SATURDAY, the 17th instant, will be considered as haling elected to receive back their deposit less the expenses.

The Committee of Direction beg to inform the Shareholders that the requisite deposits with the parish-clerks, Private Bill-office, &c., have been made, and the whole of the notices served in compliance with the Standing Orders of Parliament. The value and importance of the line being universally admitted, the Committee beg to submit the following tabular statement, from an examination of which the public will be able to julge how far the engineering merits of this line will bear comparison with the other schemes intended to accommodate the same district:— The line from Boston to Shef- By opposing lines which omit field, through Sleaford, Newark, Newark, and Mansfield, by the Boston, Newark,and Sheffield Railway,ls Dist/knee . • •• • • 80% miles Distance .• . ...... . 92 miles Heaviest gradient .. lin 120 Heaviest gradient. • • lin 84 Tunnelling. • .. 1,024 yds.

Tunnelling •••• • • • • 2,024 yds. From an examination of the preceding, it will be seen that the line of the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, as a communi• cation between Boston and Sheffield, while it connects Boston and Sleaford with Newark, which the others do net, has the advantages over its opponents of 11% miles in distance, 8,408 yards in tun nelling, and of a gradient of 1 in 120, instead of 1 in 84, thus effect ing an enormous saving in capital. On the two other routes compared above, the advantages as to gradients and tunnelling greatly preponderate on the same side, that of the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway; and these, according to a principle lately most prominently announced by a great railway authority—" that the best railway is not always the shortest, but that which work s b est "—much more than compensates for its greater length of about three miles. Besides, there are fourteen miles and a half of the route from Not tingham to Boston, via the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, already in the course of construction by the Midland Company, thereby rendering it necessary for the opposing lines to make eleven miles additional railway with very heavy gradients, in order to save three miles and a half in their distance, as compared with the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield line. A more minute statement of the comparative merits of these lines, which is now preparing, will, it is confidently anticipated, set at rest all doubts as to the superior engineering merits of the Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railway, over its rival schemes, and establish its Parliamentary claims on an imontruvertible basis.
