While the return for capital cannot be questioned, and the necessities of the district de mand accommodation, the expenditure must necessarily fall below the usual amount for works of equal magnitude.

The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the Share holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act of Parliament is obtained ; and power will be taken in the Act to allow 4 per cent. in terest upon all calls.

CONSULTING ENGINEER—CharIes Fox, Esq. NIWINEERS. Elijah Galloway, Esq. James Bullivant Temalin, Esq. This line will commence at a point on the Midland Counties Rail way, near Kegworth, and will proceed in a direct line to Nuneaton, and thus, by means of other projected lines, a direct communication will be formed between the important towns of Nottingham, Newark, and Lincoln on the one side, and Birmingham, Coventry, and War wick on the other ; and as there is no doubt the proposed rail way between Cheltenham and Warwick will be formed, a direct communication will thus be effected between the Severn at Glouces ter, and the Humber at Great Grimsby. At the same time, a rich mineral and agricultural district will be supplied with railway ad vantages. The line will pass through a very productive district, intersecting the Leicestershire coal-fields and limeworks, and will afford commu nication, north and south, to the Derbyshire potteries. With such an assured immediate and prospective amount of traffic, the profits on the small capital required cannot fall to be highly remunerative. In consequence of the lines in the course of formation, exclusive of those projected to Great Grimsby, that port will be rendered of the first importance, and it must be obvious that traffic from the district south-west of Warwick will be very great. . - . The distance saved by the proposed line between Leamington, Warwick, Coventry, and Nottingham, will be about twenty miles ; and between Birmingham and Nottingham about six miles. As it is the shortest :route from Birmingham to Nottingham and Lincoln, it must secure the traffic from Birmingham to Notting ham, Newark, Lincoln, and the port of Great Grimsby ; and by com municating with the Erewash Valley Railway at Long Eaton. it must command the traffic from Coventry, Warwick, and the district south of those towns to Sheffield. Leeds, York, and the north of England generally. It will also afford a direct communication between Not tingham and the district bet ,, een Warwick and Worcester, by means of the projected Worcester, Warwick, and Rugby, and the Warwick and Worcester 'Railways. The entire length of the line will be about twenty-four miles. The Parliamentary surveys are now in active progress, and contracts have been entered into with eminent surveyors, which will insure ample time for a compliance with the standing orders. The engineer also reports the country to be free from all engineering difficulties, and to present unusual facilities for the tbnnation of the line. The Committee having determined upon making provision for com pleting the whole line to Coventry, in case circumstances should ren der such a course expedient, have resolved to raise the capital to 550,0001., in 27,500 shares of 201. each. Any parties who may be desirous of withdrawing their applications in consequence of the above alterations in the project, must signify the same forthwith, otherwise the applicants for shares will be considered as acquiescing therein. Powers far all , wance of interest at four per cont. on the paid-up capital will be taken, and the liability of shareholders limited to the amount of their subscriptions. TABLE OF DISTAN TES.

The entice district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty miles, anti including the market towns of Oakham and UPilingham, is without railway or water-carriage accommoda tion, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but also to London. At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the now com peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London which shall be successful before Parliament. The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are snore than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line ; indeed, for many miles the line will run upon a water level. The line will not interfere with any ornamental property. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking. The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, and ex tend the proposed line of railway, and to increase the amount of capital, as may be necessary or advisable.

This railway is intended to commence at or near to the Alne sta tion on the Great North of England Railway, to proceed by way of Aldborough, Boroughbridge, and Dishforth, and to terminate at the Leeds and Thirsk Railway near to Wath, at a junction with, and so as to form an eastern continuation of, the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway. _ _ The length of the line will be about thirteen miles, and, in forming it, three objecrs are in view : _ , . ht. To accommodate Boroughtorldge, and a great extent of highly fertile and productive country hitherto entirely devoid of railway communication. 2d. To form a connecting link between the Great North of Eng land Railway, and the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway, and thereby connect with this project part of the trunk lines from Hull, Selby, York, Beverley, Marketweighton, Poeklington, Scarborough, Whitby, Pickering, Melton, &c., and the eageni districts to Carlisle, and the west of Scotland by the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union, which passes through Bedale, Leyburn, Askrigg, Hawes, Kirkby, Stephen Appleby, and forming a junction with the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near Penrith. 3d. To supply the district in question with coal from the pits in the neighbourhood of Leeds, and from those of Durham by means of the Leeds and Thirsk Railway and its extension. To afford accommoda tion to the town of Boroughbridge and its locality by connecting it with Carlisle, Durham, Hull, Ripon, York, Scarborough, &c., which this project will do to a much greater extent than would have been afforded by the Pill Moor branch of last session, from the Great North of England Railway to Boroughbridge, inasmuch as this line will give an outlet to both a northern and eastern direction, whilst that of last session would have afforded merely a northern one. The country is level, requiring no tunnel, and very little cutting or embanking, and the line will consequently be of easy construction. The cost will be comparatively light, and all residential annoyance or injury to property will be avoided. The saving of distance by this scheme will, on reference to the map, be seen to be very considerable, especially with regard to rail way communication between the cities of Ripon and York, Wath being only four miles north-east of Ripon ; and this line, in con nexion with the Leeds and Thirsk Railway (whirls runs through that city), forming a continuous, as well as the shortest and best, line of railway between Ripon and York. In the allotment of shares preference will be given to landowners and others locally interested on the line. Applications for shares (accompanied by a respectable reference) to be made to the solicitor or agents in the annexed form: — FORM OF APPLICATION. 2 n s n l d .

This undertaking is projected by influential local interests to supply the requirements of the above important district; and a reference to the snap will show that it will also complete the communication be tween York, Leeds, and the intermediate towns in the most direct course with London. The surveys have been made by Sir Johu Mac neill and James Thompson, Es q ., an d the country is found to be fa • vourable to the construction of a railway ; and there is, perhaps, no line of such importance which could be constructed at comparatively so small an expense as the sum named in the estimate. The length of the line w3ll be but about thirty-nine miles ; and by means of this short link, in cannexion with existing projects from Nottingham, a saving will be effected between Leeds and the metro s exceeding twenty-five - miles. - It will Commence at the projected terminus of the Wakefield, Pon tefract, aad Goole Railway, at Pontefract, and from thence proceed through Doncaster, Tickhlli, and Worksop, to the terminus of the YOttingluun, Mansfield, and Midland Counties Railway, At Mansfield ; of flu County COMMITTEE OF DIRECTION, CHAIRMAN—W.

Assuming the northern terminus of the Erewash Railway as its origin, this line will pass through localities totally un provided with railway accommodation, into the populous ma nufacturing districts of Lancashire. It will continue the important line from which it borrows the prefix of its name, from .Alfreton, in Derbyshire, where it will be a recipient of traffic from the Cromford Canal —communicating with the Codnor ironworks—along the Dinting Vale, and, obeying the course of the river Derwent, enter Yorkshire, in the vicinity of Saddieworth. In its course, it will pass through or near to Matlock, Ashbourne, Glos sop, Mottram, Hyfteld, and Duckenfleld, in reaching which point, the Manchester and Sheffield Railway will be intersected, and the Hud dersfield Canal Railway passed, near to the Rochdale station of the Manchester and Leeds Railway. It is unnecessary to state heiv the character of the country from Rochdale to Blackburn : it will be sufficient to observe, that it is the seat of those manufactures to which England owes her accumulating wealth. The line will proceed thence through or near to Whitworth and Rossendale, and fall into the East Lancashire Railway, in the vicinity of Ilaslingden. A branch will be thrown eat of the trunk line, from the Junction with the East Lancashire line near Haslingden, by Low-Moor iron works and Bacup, to Todmorden. The Erewash Extension will be the only direct route from the centre of Derbyshire to the great manufacturing towns and chief seaports of Lancashire. It will traverse a valley district adorned with the most picturesque scenery, and, at the same time, rich in mineral produce. It will communicate, laterally, with several trunk lines of railway, and will be fed by no less than five working canals— the Cromford—the Manchester and sh: Meld—the Huddersfield—the Manchester and Leeds—and the Liverpool and Blackburn. To the innitiplication of Advantages which intersecting railways anti lines of still-water navigation are compelled to afford, the throw ing out of branches from the line itself in so many directions will add still further powers of accommodation, and, when the dense popula tion in the localities traversed is considered, there is every reason to conclude that an ample remuneration for vested capital will be ob tained.

Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the London and Birmingham, and the lines of railway proposed to con verge at that town from Cheltenham, and the west from Worcester and from Warwick, the line will proceed in a di rect course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies com peting for the line of railway between London and Manchester pro pose to pass. It will then proceed, also, in a direct course to the market towns o f Uppingham, Oakham, and Grantham, to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northampton and Gran them is wholly without ex isting or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south, but also to the north. Al Lincoln the line t i ke fo r k, and proceed on the one hand in a northerly direction to the flourishing port o f Gains . rou DO gh, and on the other by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Raisen, on the rising port of Great Grimsby. By an union with the Sheffield and Great Grimsby Junction Rail way at Market Raisen, a d rest and uninterrupted chain of commu nication will be established between all the above -mentioned districts and I he town and port of Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and very considerable; some of them only can be here enumerated, viz.:— Starting from Great Grimsby the line will appropriate to itself the whole of the traffic thence to the m etro polis, and also th e sout h ern and western districts of the country, and, in addiCon, it will secure the important and increasing local traffic between that town and Market Raisen and Lincoln. From Gainsborough, the termini of several railways from the north and north-west, this lino will carry the traffic to Lincoln, its county town. The traffic from Hull to the metropolis, and also to the west, will enter upon this line at Market Raison, and proccied thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole o f the traffic passing to the west and the intermediate towns must pass over this line. In the, event of the Cambridge and-Lincoln Railway Company not 'Obtaining their Bill, then the traffic from Lincoln to the south and west, and also the metroPollis, will pass along this line of railway ~" ! thereby completing, by means of the York and North Midland Rail way, the shortest route from York to Nottingham and London. It Will also, by the proposed extension line of the Wakefield, Pontefract and Goole, from the York and North Midland, near Methley, form the nearest line between Leeds. Nottingham, the Midland and South ern Counties, and by the Goole and Doncaster line, an uninterrupted communication with Goole and the shipping ports of the Humber. It will also form a means of communication with the severalpro jected lines, to the rising port of Great Grimsby. It is a remarkable feature in this line, that there is no competing scheme, nor does it at all interfere with any ornamental or residen tial property. It is not considered essential to enter into the details of traffic; the value of the lines in the district, in that respect, is a sufficient test of its extent, in addition to which, the railway will become the recipient of much of the northern traffic, arising from the numerous branches with which it is connected, and mus; also become the Grand Trunk Line to London from the Western parts of Yorkshire. By the Subscribers' Agreement, authority will be given to the Di rectors to enter into such arrangements with existing Companies as may appear to them expedient. A preference will be given in the allotment to the shareholders in the adjacent lines, which fact, with particulars, must be stated in heir applications. Application for shares may be made in the usual form, to the Se cretary ; solicitors ; Messrs.

This important line of railway, commencing at the port of Gains borough, is intended to pass along the Trent hat by Sturton-le-Steeple, North Leverton, South Leverton, Treswell, Hampton, Laneham, Dunham, Regia, Fleetborough, Marnham, Normanton, irasstliorpe, Sutton-upon-Trent, Carlton, Cromwell, Norwell, Bathley, North Muskham, Little Carlton, Kelham, Newark, and thence to Notting ham, by the existing Midlands branch, making the total distance to Nottingham thirty-nine miles; thus effecting, by twenty-four miles of new railway, a direct line from Gainsborough to Nottinghant, which will connect Derby, Birmingham, Gloucester, Bristol, and the west of England generally, with Goole, Hull, and Great Grimsby. The object of the promoters of this railway is to afford to existing interests an opportunity of uniting to secure the immense traffic which exists along this line in its original and legitimate course, via Newark-upon-Trent to Nottingham. They propose no unfair inter ference with the rights and properties of vested companies, but, by cutting off the angles and curves of the river, render the route the mast direct, economical, and speedy of any railway that can be made. Should the Act for the London and York line he obtained, this Company will avail itself of their line for the first eight mile s ou t o f Newark, leaving only about fifteen miles of new railway to be made to complete this important line of communication; but if the London and York Company fail in obtaining their Act, this Com pany will have s .ffieient funds, and ,be prepared to complete the en tire line from Gainsborough to Newark. It is flat, and free from any engineering difficulty - or obstruction ; and it avoids any bridge over the Trent, which would alone absorb an amount equal to one-half of the capital required to complete the present undertaking. There are no tunnels or expensive cuttings necessary ; nor does it interfere with any residential property ; and the expense of formation will be much below the average cost, as compared with other lines. The estimate of cost, which has been formed on the most liberal scale. to include the purchase of property, and all other expenses, • will not exceed 300,0001. All necessary preparations are made, and the plans, &c., will be duly deposited, in compliance with the standing orders of bathhouses of Parliament, in order that the promoters may bring their under taking before the ensuing Parliament. Application will be made In the Bill to allow 41. per cent. par annum interest on the deposits and calls until the completion of the line. Prospectuses may be obtained, and applications for shares made, to G. P. 11111, Esq., and J. T. Sanders, Esq., at the temporary offices of the Company, 11, Gray's Inn-square, London ; and to Arthur Wells, Esq., solicitor, Nottingham ; and to Arthur Ballantine, Esq , stock and sharebroker, 1, Throgmorton- street, City.
